Gacha Fever

Honestly, I won't recommend this game as much as I wanted to, despite the enjoyability. I enjoy this game but I would do disservice if I were to recommend this to random people. 1. The game is horribly optimized, it crashed in low-end PC. Even my new PC that is quite a mid spec crashed after stage 30, for whatever reason, despite the RAM is still free by like, 8GB. So yeah, I won't recommend 8GB laptop to play this game. 2. The game progression is weird. First you started off pathetic, then you grow in power, which is solid. But late game the many potential drafts are detrimental to your progress as it's pure RNG. If you had less than like, 5 crafted items, you're done for after stage 10, diff 3. 3. Not enough currency sink, and the upgrades are weirdly inconsistent. Remove the damn level caps and you'll be totally fine, 4. It's strange that the high score on S2 (during the time I am writing this review) implies nobody goes above stage 40, I wonder why. I would rate this game 6/10. Solid execution but very messy and not late-game player friendly. Hope this game somehow fixed all of the issues.

got this for really cheap but hey was worth the 2 hours for me

Why are so many of these games struggling so much with basic comprehensibility? That thing I said in the Twilight Survivors review, about how “HEY LOOK TIDDIES” on Steam pages always instatranslates to “this game sucks and we, the dev, know it” in my head, really holds up here. All flash, baffling substance. The game really banks on its aesthetic and it’s… okay? It’s Too Much, clearly on purpose, but also in a really bland and derivative way — compare to something like Juicy Realm, which has an over-the-top look that immediately distinguishes it. And, of course, like too many of the games trying to cash in on the Survivorlike boom, it throws away parseability in order to achieve its ‘look.’ But don’t worry, the game design choices are also bad. At first I thought there was no levelling, but there actually is, it just doesn’t apply until you clear a wave, at which point you’re catapulted to a huge menu with no explanations and allows to pick buffs — it took me a while to figure this out, but the number of buffs you get is based on how many times you levelled up. Your weapon selection seems (?) completely disvorced from your level, though, and is entirely based on your ability to …

Brotato but cuter

i found this game originally off of opera gx as a free demo and all i have to say is that its super worth trying it out! the basic gist of this game is that you collect items to make you stronger while fighting waves of enemies and collecting weapons to help you fight them as well, my personal favorite weapons are the Oni annihilator and boba gun. when you level up your player level, you can also pull from the Gacha machine to either unlock new characters to play as or you can unlock other items to help you out for future battles. i really hope you check this game out and enjoy the fun I've had too!

Despite my enjoyment, I cannot recommend this to everyone. The major issue is the lack of maneuverability the game allows. Every level except for the beach has obstructions everywhere. You must find a way around a wall, but the enemies pass through with ease. So you can't even use the environment to your advantage. If that weren't enough, there's a red ring of death. If you go outside the ring, you get hurt. And on top of that, the ring shrinks rapidly. If these issues didn't exist, the game would be great. But I don't see these issues ever being fixed.
