Max's Big Bust - A Captain Nekorai Tale

Coming to this game late after playing Help I'm turning into a mermaid. While the artwork and music are ok, it's the storyline that has me hooked and after playing all the games I just love how the story weaves together and the characters evolve.

This game is clearly an amateur effort. Like, this feels like a game from people who were just getting their paces on making games. Specifically, Gender Bender DNA Twister extreme. But it's a dang FUN 'amateur' effort, with a lot of love, and silliness. Are there better games? Yes. Was this a dang fun game? Yes.

Pretty fun game the comedy moments are plentiful. It's worth getting if your a fan of transformations stories, and has multiple routes to play through. Edit: Alright looking back at this amazing game I don't think I Did a good enough job reviewing it. So let's do this the proper way rather than a single sentence. SPOILERS (kind of, try to keep them to a minimum Play the game) Characters: The Characters in this story are absolutely fun to interact with. Even Characters you would hate at least have enough Nuisance to make them interesting to get to know. Max: Our main character, I can't decide if they are the dumbest person alive or brilliant because they play with the line like a jump rope. Each route in the game is amusing none of them feeling rushed or like they were treated as an afterthought. Watching Max go through this journey both as they try to bust a crime ring and deal with the very new Gender Swap. (Max comes off like an Egg.) So it is alot of fun especially when you start interacting with the other cast. Nekorai: Is the best. He should get his own game. (This message bought to you by Strega, my friend I played the game with.) Love interests: Honestly I thought I co…

the story is verry well constructed

If you are looking for a really good visual novel, this is an amazing series, with this being the first main game in the series. The setpieces are nice, and I like the 'magic is here but no one seems to notice' contrasted with the dodgy underbelly that is Axon City to make an interesting setting. This is a TF game, and has you take the role of recently changed officer Max Newling and following her through the first few weeks of her new life. Along the way, there is a mystery of a new drug that turns up, plus Max's own transformation is raising alarm bells. I really like the core story, and the game plays both the comedy angle and also the realism angle. There are some genuinely scary moments, and even if this ultimately leans more comedy there are scenes that still are impactful (which I won't say here). The investigation puzzles are... okay. They aren't that complex compared to Max 2 and especially HITIAM, and the ssecond and third puzzles have some neat ideas... but I wish there was more of them, as there is relatively limited gameplay otherwise. This is the most straightforward VN Lached Up Games has made. In addition, you can hang out with and romance one of five chara…

cute= check. funny= check. cute girls (and the occasional cute guy in my opinion)= check. a great kick off to a in my opinion amazing game series
