OASE - Other Age Second Encounter

I have played the prequel (Other Age) of this game in my highschool years, and I liked it despite it being very hard. So I treid OASE when it just came out, but it was even harder(x1000) than the previous one. With no walkthrough available at that time, I had to give up on it. I recently came accross it again, and this time with the easy mode available it went much better. This is what I consider as a collecting game, the main purpose is to collect endings. So it is a shame that there is no achievements available. Some people mentionned there were very long cutscenes (what?!), have you not noticed your keyboard's enter button?? Pros: - Good collection game - Beautiful art - Nice music - Interesting concept - Many secret paths/alternative endings - Press enter to skip, press q to cheat on some of the minigames Cons: - No achievements - Needlessly hard (some mini-games are quite hard, yes I'm talking to you cameraman dude, but with some practice I became a pro lol) - Pixel hunting (very painful) - Repetitive (Dude quests are common to all characters with minor variations) - Some typos, spelling and grammar problems in text Overall: 7.5/10

Boring .. 2/10

This is some kind of anime themed interactive novel with some puzzle elements. I'd write a more in depth analysis of this one but it crashes on launch. That's true quality, not even bothering to test their game properly before dumping it on Steam. However I was able to get tremendous amusement from this game, because the developers listed it at $28.95. AAA pricing for a crappy interactive novel that doesn't even work. Say what you want about their failure at making a game which works properly, but with pricing like that, these devs have tremendous imagination.

It`s a 2010 game and, honestly speaking from today, part of the game sucks. Mainly due to the extreme difficulty, as it`s literally impossible to achieve certain things unless you are REALLY patient or, should I put it, lacks anything better to do. And in some cases, that`s not enough. You HAVE TO be directly hinted by the authors themselves before you end up wondering whether the game is designed to be beatable. But that`s also to say, the rest of the game is GREAT. If you take it more as an artbook than a mere game, you`ll be surely fascinated. The authors are, so far as I`ve seen, one of the best artists, aesthetically speaking. So long as you`re not in a hurry to "beat" the game, instead just view it as an amazing sightseeing into the world they created, it`s not only great. It`s FANTSATIC. My first hearing of the game was at some shabby online minigame site around 10 years ago. I played its incorrectly named demo, and immediately got fascinated. At that time online payment was way undeveloped, and I had to send an international bill to purchase, so I did. That`s how I first got the game. The time I spent on this game should be able to match that of a 3A work like Witcher III…

Pretty fun dating sim if you give it a chance.

Dubious sense of humor. This is a low quality game in which you are introcuced some kind of babe generator machine, then you are introduced to a randomguy and must fend him off doing minigames like wackamole that go too fast and do not register clicks well. Failing minigames returns a hard game over. Cutscenes are unskippable and slow to unfold. Checkpoint system uses a set of loadstate passwords instead of proper saveslots. Annoying ot have to remember random words. After a few tries I ended up having a girl as a sidekick. I could see she had a healthbar of hearts and I am assuming I was supposed to do stuff in the walk-clicker puzzle section to impress her on my "date". Thing is all there was to do is scroll left and right across about 50 different screens. Each one had a NPCS with pointless fluff text and most of them told me I didnt have money so they could not barter. The encyclopedia did not reveal any quests and instead had strange background text on Crystalites. While portraits in hallw…
