Cat Fantasy | English

3.3

*note: Not rating storyline as I ended up just hitting skip after a few chapters. It does seem to be a bit interesting though, so I wouldnt mind going back and reading it eventually.

I am really on the fence about this game. I have been playing it nonstop for the last week or so, yet I am hesitant to recommend it. Here are some pros and cons to help you decide if you want to put some time in to it:

Pros:
♡ Fun character design in which all the cat people have cat forms. (See con list for an addendum to this though)
♡ Fun battle system. This is the main reason I keep playing. I enjoy the card based battle system and have fun ranking characters up to do more and more difficult content.
♡ The music is pretty enjoyable. However, a certain voiced song gets used soooo much... You can tell the devs really love it lol. Thankfully you can customize what music plays on the home screen.
♡ LOTS to do. Almost an overwhelming amount. Theres a PVP Arena that you can do auto battles on, a real time PVP Arena (only open during certain times of day), fishing, cooking, cafe management, a battle tower with 2 different modes, a world boss, clan (guild) activities, another PVP system where you do teams of 3 (like Princess Connect), order deliveries, another order delivery system that is a little bit different, events, and probably more that Im not thinking of off hand.

Cons:
♡ The biggest pull for me for this game was seeing the ads where you play as the cat form of the characters and explore 3D environments. As of me writing this review, there is literally only one level available right now where you do this. It takes maybe 10-15 minutes to get through. The ads make it seem like this is a big part of the game. It is not. The game is stage based (like 1-1, 1-2, etc.) and turn based battles. There is no free roam mode or exploration. The cat segment is one singular stage. (I have completed the entire story mode that is available currently and can confirm only one stage exists for this).
♡ A lot of people might disagree with me here and thats ok, but I really dislike the overt fan service. Some of the skins you can buy sort of shocked me. Like, what am I playing again lol? One skin is portrayed as the girl being in what looks like a red light district club and is wearing lingerie. Some people may like that, so whatever. But just based off of ads and stuff I was not expecting that sort of thing. I will say it seems to be confined to skins (purchased with real money) but also I skipped most of the story mode reading sections so I can't say for sure.
♡ No male cat characters. There are male characters you can get, but none of them are SSR and none of them have cat forms. Every character can have their cat forms viewed, but for the characters that dont have cat forms, they just turn into a purple ball of light. Its weird to explain. There are male cat people in the story, so I hope they get added later.
♡ REALLY stingy on giving pull currency. There are 2 types of banners. A regular basic banner, and premium banners. Holy cow, they DROWN you in basic banner currency. You get it from everything basically. I can do TONS of 10 pulls even in a single day due to how much they give. HOWEVER, its not particularly useful as the best characters are saved for the premium/limited banner. My theory is they drown you in basic currency to make up for the fact that premium currency is hardly ever given out. You dont even get prem. currency from doing the story levels. Or from doing the battle tower modes. You hardly ever get to pull on the premium banners compared to the regular one. This is why other reviews say this game is geared towards whales. I agree with this.
♡ Last but not least: some of the character models just look really lifeless. (looking at you, Asura). Especially in the story mode where the avatar is on screen talking. Idk how to explain it, but some of them are really lacking. Like they are just Anime Character Number 3, you know? This is not the case with all of them though, some have super cool designs. Just unsure why the main cast looks the way that they do. Its like their faces arent up to date. Does that make sense? Maybe not. Someone else said its due to their pointy chins. Maybe thats it. I would love to hear other opinions on this lol.

Ok, so this was a lot longer than I thought I was gonna write. But there you have it. Im not sure how long this game will last due to the issue of wanting you to spend real money. For example: a cafe skin was $30 USD. You hardly ever see the cafe. So, like, what!?

Star Scandal: Otome Game

2.3

I like the story and the characters from what I have read. Unfortunately, this game is riddled with cash grab practices. I would love to be able to, you know, read and play the story... But, they have locked everything behind currencies. To make certain romance choices towards the various love interests, it wants you to pay real money. The whole thing feels like a scam. Which, again, is unfortunate because I was actually enjoying the story.

(Tl;dr pro/con list at the bottom)

◇ What I love a lot about this game is that it does not have any of the predatory business practices I see in so many new otome games. It is actually one of the best! You can read the story to your hearts content, and while there are battles (makes use of a gacha system), I have yet to be stuck on any of them. Raising the cards is pretty easy unlike some otome games (Looking at you, Obey Me...). I have one single SSR and am already on the 3rd boys route. Theres no "pay this many gems to give the good answer/go this route!" etc. (I hate that stuff lol).

◇ I wanted to put that paragraph up there because I feel like it is so important to support companies that are f2p friendly. Especially otome games because the whole reason we are there is to experience the story. I have come across a handful of games that make you watch a ton of ads for like 3 lines of dialogue in the story. This game does NOT do that and I LOVE it.

(Idk if you can tell but I am scarred by Magia Record EN closing down so I am desperate for this one to stay alive asdfg;;)

Pros:
♡ As mentioned above, you can actually read and progress through the story without any annoying real-money-required schemes (and no ads!)
♡ There are ROUTES IN THIS GAME! Each boy has their own dedicated route, so no more searching for crumbs of your fav boy in an all-encompassing general story. (There is a prologue you must get through, then it branches off)
♡ The story itself is super interesting. I actually went into this game 100% blind and was pleasantly surprised. I have been playing nonstop since I downloaded it.
♡ Fun side stuff to do! There are quite a bit of fun/optional side activities to do.
♡ Wonderful art!!! And the Live2D looks amazing, too.
♡ Sukuna's (from JJK) VA is Lars in this game. It is amazing and I am not even a Sukuna stan lol. His character archetype in game is that of a king, too!
♡ Fully voiced everything. From main story, to side stuff, to video calls, etc.
♡ Easy to raise/level gacha cards and easy to understand battle system.
♡ There is a fun little theatre/puppet mode where you can make your own short videos and put them up for other players to see.
♡ This game reminds me more of a traditional otome game (rather than a gacha game) and I love it. It is so fun!

Cons:
♡ Bro idk I love this game. I can't even think of a con right now. Give this game a try!!

Heaven Burns Red

5.0

Wonderful game. The storyline is very heartfelt, but can also be super funny at times. The main character, Kayamori, is hilarious.

Pros:
♡ One of the best stories I have come across in a mobile game (funny, heart wrenching, interesting concept)
♡ Female protagonist!!
♡ Has a gacha system, but is not super focused on it. I feel like it is more of a fun bonus to get cool characters. If you have at least like 2 SSR characters (the game gives you 2 free) and level them, you won't have any trouble with story fights. If you want to do the extra challenge stuff, you can focus on gacha more.
♡ Event stories are just as good as the main story. Some got me crying lol
♡ No stamina system for main story - you can play as much as you want. Stamina is used for extra / side stuff.
♡ Comparable to a Persona game (has Free Time, something similar to Social Links, plays in a day-by-day system)
♡ There is a side mini-game that is a tap/rhythm game
♡ Entire game is voice acted, and it is really good! They put their all into the performance.
♡ Basically everything is super impressive for a mobile game.
♡ I could say so much about this game. Please give it a try!

Cons:
♡ The only real con, for me, is that there is no English version. If you do not speak Japanese, you will need a translator of some sort. Hopefully this game will get an English translation!

Honestly super love this game.
Pros:
•Super fun and flashy gameplay
•Unique and lovable characters (Chrome romance option when?)
•Lots of game modes! Some dont even require stamina
•Great soundtrack
•Super cool costumes that you can obtain (some) in game without spending money if you are patient
•Fun dorm system with decorations and cute chibi versions of the characters
•Intriguing storyline
Cons:
•RIP my wallet I do love skins lol

Touhou Arcadia Record

3.0

EDIT: The crashing seems to have been fixed. but I have another sort of large issue. Why are there no sound effects/sound cues for bosses and their attacks!? This really irks me. For example, on the harder Reisen fight, she calls down missiles. On the easier version, it gives warning signs when she is about to do this. On the harder version, she only does a barely noticeable animation to show she is doing that move. i have died so many times by that bc I cant tell when she is doing it. I feel like having sound cues for the bosses and their attacks is something severely lacking in the game.

Pros:
• Challenging gameplay
• Cute art
• Remixed Touhou music
• Fun little side things like gardening, fishing, making food, PVP
• Boss mode that has free movement like traditional Touhou games - this is actually my fav part of the game and I wish there were more stages that played like this lol
Cons:
• Game crashes pretty often. Unsure why. Seems to be a common issue, so hopefully it will get fixed.
• This could be my phone, idk, but the sound mixing is pretty bad. Even with music turned 100% up in the settings, I still cant really hear it
• Challenging gameplay - lol I could just be really bad or maybe I dont understand how to play entirely, but some of the levels are very difficult. I am not sure how someone could possibly do some of these without getting hit at all (pls drop some tips for me qq)

unsure if the typo in "creation" was on purpose in the rules, Qooapp. So I included in my post that way anyway. #JJK_FAContest  Read Note
