✦ AI summary

Players praise Hood Story as a charming, polished indie game inspired by classics like Shenmue and Yakuza, with engaging combat, fun mini-games, and an appealing manga-style aesthetic set in Tokyo. The main criticism centers on the use of AI voice acting, which some players find acceptable given it's the developer's first game, though it represents a notable limitation compared to the game's other strengths. Overall, players appreciate the developer's clear passion and effort, expressing enthusiasm for future projects despite the game's relatively short length.

Permanently banning me in the discussion boards just because I refuse to use Discord huh? Well, the snowflake developer just earned a negative review from me. Just because they think I'm a troll. Sure, keep using Discord if you want, I'm not gonna risk my info getting leaked and sold to god knows who and where. Too bad, this game is okay at best, with predictable plot and sub-par English when characters converse with one another.

Hood Story: Kaito Yamazaki is an ambitious, yet short game built with love and care. While there is a use of AI in the voice acting, it's understood that this was the developer's first game and the use of genuine voices could not be retrieved at the time. I still enjoyed the game despite that. It did not take away from my immersion, as I was more interested in the story and I knew going in that there was AI involved due to my experiences with this game and my fondness of it. Being a friend of the developer, I very much enjoyed the story. You can tell even with the AI that there is genuine adoration for his game and the work that went into it. The combat is fun, juggles included and combos that I already learned in-depth. Mini-games are also included. All in all, would love to see more from Kenzo.

Polished, well thought and overall a fresh and very good game. Graphics in Manga style are a winner. On the highest settings runs perfect, looks awesome. Tokyo - Japan vibes are a winner. Thank you for introducing me to the world of Mr Yamazaki!

Shenmue. Yakuza. Persona. You're going to see these names peppered quite a bit throughout various Steam reviews and for good reason. Hood Story is a game that wears its inspiration proudly and evokes all of these classic titles, albeit on a lo-fi indie scale. If the above sounds good, you're likely to enjoy the game. Personally, I'm having a blast and can't wait to continue Kaito's adventures in Osaka (the recent addition of Japanese language has me considering a restart!).
