Magical Valkyrie Lyristia

Magical Valkyrie Lyristia is a compact turn-based RPG that combines the familiar appeal of magical-girl anime with traditional Japanese role-playing mechanics. Developed by ShiBoo! and published by Kagura Games, the game places its heroines in a modern setting where an evil organization threatens ordinary citizens. Rather than attempting to reinvent the RPG formula, it builds its identity around transformation-powered characters, straightforward progression, exploration, and battles that are easy to understand. The result is a relatively focused experience that should feel immediately familiar to players accustomed to smaller indie JRPGs. The story centers on the sinister organization Fakker, whose activities include terrorizing the city and abducting people during the night. Magical Valkyrie Frostia already stands against this threat, but events change when she rescues a young woman with the potential to become a magical warrior herself. This eventually leads to the emergence of Lyristia and establishes the relationship at the heart of the adventure. The premise follows recognizable magical-girl conventions, including transformation, heroic responsibility, supernatural enemies, a…

If you're looking for a game about magical girls - it is one, but I can't recommend it in this role. This game is more about raping magical girls to their death. Yes, it is horrible. If you're looking for a cute H game - no, that's not it. While the art is really good, the plot is disgusting, even though the premice is quite typical. If you're a psycho, who loves rape, then sure, give it a go. There's only 1 short non-rape scene in a bad ending. The patch adds almost all of the art, not just H art, voice acting and the game is really not intended to be played without it. Without it in the scenes where she's restrained, you don't see your character at all. Empty place takes damage from enemies. The game system is descent: you have different parts of your dress that you can improve, and each has like a development tree. You have energy meter and magic meter, and usually your goal is to hold on until your magic meter is full, so you could use the ultimate skill. If enemy restrains you, well, good luck! You have a couple of turns before thing will get ugly. Some battles are almost unwinnable if you made a bad decision before them. Random encounters could be annoying, but they give y…

Please add English Language patches for your other games ShiBoo! This game was great, but your others are even better!

Very beautiful artstyle and not too difficult to clear so long as you take advantage of Lyri punch and random encounters to out grind the enemy. The game doesn't take much to beat just a fully upgraded gloves and boots. All cgs are unlocked upon completion and two bonus ones are give for the true ending. Huge plus to not have to die to unlock them. Really short my play time is all it takes to 100% it. [strike] With the exception of the mall because I couldn't find that stray chest in the huge map [/strike]

If you are a huge fan of ixy's art (like I am) you wont regret buying this game. The art and animations are really pretty and is basically the main selling point of the game. I understand people's complaints about the game feeling cut short and while it does really abruptly ends; there isn't much depth to the game once you figure out the combat.I think the runtime of this game is the right amount of time before it gets stale. RNG mechanics are annoying especially when you get grabbed but its very manageable when you figure out. first play through was roughly 3 hours while i went to the true end only took me 1 and a half to beat the game. Overall id still recommend it just for the art alone the difficulty is not bad hard all things considered.

Short and overpriced but a fun play regardless if you like defeated magical girls, get this on sale or with the bundle. (do not forget the patch)
