Head AS Code

Absolutely no! This game takes heavy inspiration from the Zero Escape games but I don't think the writer understood what makes the Zero Escape games so good. The writing requires 2 or 3 more sweeps in the editing stage because it suffers with major pacing issues. Compare how 999 opens up and then compare it to this game; there is no suspense, there is no atmosphere, there is no urgency. This is a poor mans imitation and I wouldn't even bother.

good.

I went into this not expecting much, and I finished it being pretty pleased with what I got. There were some good narrative ideas, though nothing ground-breaking. A couple reveals had me raising my eyebrows in surprise. While the writing was a bit basic (and more than a little horny), my intrigue was maintained throughout so in that regard it was a competently written mystery Character portraits are...fine. Backgrounds look decent. Nicely designed UI. Music was very fitting, though wish there were a few more tracks. Story is about 10 hours and doesn't outstay it's welcome. After finishing the game, I'm interested to check out the 2nd in the series

This oozes Zero Escape vibes from the very start. Writing is good for an amateur, definitely not to the level of a polished professional, but adequate for the story they are trying to tell. Some grammatical errors, especially with a mixture of past/present tense, incorrect usage of 'would've' and similar words, and strange sentence structure, but nothing too jarring. Story overall definitely worse than ZE, but not bad by any means. Took me about 11 hours to finish This is primarily a visual novel. There are escape rooms, but other than one exception, the puzzles are solved by the characters, not by the player. For an indie visual novel, this the game is well polished, great UI choices, easy to navigate. Major Plot Hole - [spoiler]How do the characters not feel the train stopping, going up and down, and rotating? Before this scene, I thought there were literally 28 different floors of the same rooms and clones/androids of the characters. [/spoiler] True Ending Spoilers - [spoiler]Danganronpa V3 Spoilers[/spoiler] - [spoiler]Yes this game takes the meta approach to endings. It's like the author never heard about the backlash against Danganronpa![/spoiler]

Just no.

Incredible. Played it through after seeing it years ago. If you liked Zero escape or simnilar games you'll love the story on this. Great plot twists and the small hints made me go back to check what i missed. Brilliant
