Moe Mekuri SP

I have always secretly had this suspicion that people who play Dark Souls just don't want to be happy. I think the same can be said for people who play Moe Mekuri. That is not to say Moe Mekuri is Dark Souls hard, just that both seem like games someone plays to punish themselves rather than to have fun. Moe Mekuri SP is an anime-themed puzzle game, based loosely on Lights Out. Your goal is to turn all tiles on the board face down to reveal a picture of an anime girl, which is then added to your gallery. Higher difficulties of the same level show the girl in more revealing outfits. The game has its origins on the Xbox Live Indie Game store, where there are three (or four, depending on your count) versions of the game: Moe Mekuri, Moe Mekuri 2 (and 2.5), and Moe Mekuri 3. I personally only own the last game in the series, so take my words with whatever amount of salt you feel is appropriate. Moe Mekuri SP collects the puzzles (and artwork) from the previous games in one package, along with the soundtrack for the games. That being said, if you own the previous titles on Xbox there is not much to see here. In fact, this feels like a bit of a lazy port; there are no settings of any ki…

Well, what seemed like forever for more XBLIG titles to hit Steam now and days is surprising, but normal at least. (Kinda like MBG with his games, as an example.) But anyways, what I didn't expect to see was Moe Mekuri to arrive on Steam so suddenly. Although, its roots go back to its original release in 2011, where the game lets you flip panels to see the girl(s) clearly. Flip all of the panels in each stage to progress to the next one and so on, and add more girls to the gallery. Although the gameplay is simple enough, it gets harder later on without the use of a guide. (Unless you want to do so if you're stuck, lol.) Anyways, the SP version of Moe Mekuri brings the characters from all 3 M.M. games in 1, but uses M.M. 1's mechanics, not 2/2.5, which seems a little different with its ball flip mechanic. But I suppose its easier that way for the originals' mechanics. The game, which have been updated recently to play any track from M.M. Sound Collection at the start, and the option of text in either English/Japanese. (Though Lyrics and CD Info stay JP text however.) If you decide to get this and try clearing them on all difficulties [Easy/Normal/Hard], you'll earn various outfit…

A poorly optimized anime puzzle game. You click on a tile, and then that tile, as well as the tiles attached to it, will flip around. In addition to regular tiles there are some tiles which have certain special effects, such as flipping around all tiles on the same row/column, not being clickable, and so on. Behind all the tiles hides a cute anime girl. If that sounds like fun then you might enjoy this game, however I personally did not enjoy it very much. Also, in addition to not being very enjoyable, I had to use a separate software in order to play the game in full screen. What game in 2017 (soon 2018) doesn't even have full screen support? The soundtrack was fine (standard anime/vocaloid stuff), but got a bit repetitive even after only 1,5 hours of playtime. The art was also fine, but nothing special. In the end I can't really recommend this game, however since it's fairly cheap (especially on sale) it probably doesn't hurt giving it a try if you're [b]really[/b] into puzzle games. Be warned tho, the game is [u]not[/u] very easy.

My Favorite ! This puzzle is enjoyable. I'm fascinated with background music.

Bought moe mekuri on xbox 360 so i figured i buy it again here. the music is the absolute best part of the game for me. plus they combined moe mekuri 1,2, and, 3 together. 3 games worth of music, puzzles and, illustrations. Before the steam release the moe mekuri soundtrack wasn't available anywhere outside of japan, so im glad the game and soundtracks are here on steam.

It's fun, but you'd best play some other music from time to time as listening to this can slowly make you lose your mind...
