Ahh… The Manga Works. This…. This is quite the game… I think it’s a nice looking game, and had fun playing it casually. Although, I will say, it is a difficult game if you want to go beyond Novice. I initially brought the game in 2023 and… quickly became overwhelmed by the work load the game threw at me. My character physically wasn’t able to meet the demands the publishers threw at him, which probably is a metaphor for how real Manga Artist feel, but from a gameplay perspective put me off the game. I believe I did two playthroughs and lost both to this same issue. And so I left the game there. I cam back nearly 3 years later when trying to 100% some games in my game library… and mistakenly thought this game would be easy, because there are only 6 achievements total… New playthrough, I invested soo much resources into the players Workload, just so they could keep up with the ever increasing demand of the game. And… my god is it a HARD 100%. It’s not hard because it requires super precise aim or a lot of skill… it just requires a lot of patients. I had to google some good manga combo’s online, and just keep at it. Make manga, make money, buy stuff to increase stats, and repeat for… …2 found this helpful
Developed and published by Kairosoft Co., Ltd., The Manga Works is a management simulation game that explores the highly competitive and often unpredictable world of manga creation. Known for transforming unusual professions into entertaining simulation experiences, Kairosoft takes players on a journey from amateur artist to industry superstar. Through a combination of creative decision-making, career management, publisher relationships, and long-term planning, the game delivers a surprisingly deep look at what it takes to create a successful manga franchise and turn it into a multimedia empire. The game's core premise revolves around building a career as a manga artist. Players begin with modest resources, limited skills, and little recognition within the publishing industry. From these humble beginnings, they must gradually improve their abilities, develop compelling stories, and gain the attention of publishers. The progression from unknown creator to household name forms the backbone of the experience and provides a satisfying sense of accomplishment as every milestone is achieved. One of the most engaging aspects of The Manga Works is the creative process itself. Creating a …1 found this helpful
i love kairosoft i am a kairosoft wh0re and i must say, this is one of the most fun games of theirs that i have ever played! it's not too hard to be fun, but still requires strategizing and planning as all their games do. some seem to have such specific requirements and intense difficulties that they're just not fun and feel more like work; this one strikes a much better balance, challenging but still enjoyable and relaxing.
é bom.
This game is great for the price and size. l think this game is great for anyone who kinda of likes Simulations
Another Kairosoft game I ain't enjoying... like dear god I thought this was different and to be honest it is but I felt like it just turned into Game Dev story all over again. I don't know ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ why but MOST Kairosoft games, rarely actually do something different and the rest just revert back to their first game... and yes I started to not enjoy it at all after it did.
