This game is underwhelming. There's not much room for creativity or strategy as there are very few optimal ways to beat each type of enemy base.

Try the Airships: Conquer the Skies game for a better version of this game for singleplayer, or try a Worms game for a more fun version of this game for multiplayer.

Gnosia is a fun game. While the story might not make all that much sense, the character interactions in events are interesting. My only problem with this game is how you have to rely on RNG to start a game with certain characters having certain roles to trigger some events. I still had fun playing it. I give this game an 8/10.

I have some mixed feelings about this game. I give it a 6/10 after having finished the game, Revelation Mode and Extras included. All character lines are fully voice acted in this game. And the character CGs are decent. Though it's a bit strange how some characters have blinking animations but their mouths don't move when they speak.

Raging Loop has a very good horror/mystery story in the beginning but the plot becomes a little less interesting later on, as information stops being revealed gradually and starts being dumped on you all at once. I also struggled to understand some of the explanations about the folklore that involved some concepts from Buddhism and Shintoism.

It was also confusing whenever the characters started talking about the different gods not being what the stories claimed to be, and started talking about nameless gods along with named gods. Another factor that made things confusing is how the protagonist denies the existence of the supernatural, only to experience them for himself and flip back and forth between whether he's certain that there is a scientific explanation or if he's certain that it is a supernatural experience after all. Furthermore, the game tells you that the game is over after the "true ending", but that's not true. The "Extras" and "Revelation Mode" dialogue are important parts of piecing together the overall story, and the rules that govern the supernatural in the world that Raging Loop's story takes place in.

The art, voice acting, and animations are good for the main characters. Although, some of the antagonists and combat opponents had bad CGs.

This game has quite a few outfits for Nova that you can equip. They all look good too.

The gameplay was worse than that of the prequel, Robolife - Days with Aino. There was too much grinding, specially in the epilogue. And some fights were annoying because if you didn't have the right parts equipped for Aino, you would have to wait several in-game days to trigger that same event and try the fight again.

The UI for the available quests/story events made it seem like there were a lot of events that I hadn't unlocked but that wasn't the case. For some reason, that UI has a lot of entries labelled as "???" even though there are only a few questlines in the whole game.

The story is decent overall but the main route's ending and the epilogue's stories are not very good. The entirety of Sophie's subplot was strange. And the Twins' epilogue story about their obsession with their manufacturing company's CEO was strange and felt a bit out of place, specially after the CEO's evil villain act at the end of the main route. They should have kept the plot simple, and centered on the player character like in the first game.

Overall, Robolife2 is not as good as the studio's previous game, Robolife - Days with Aino but it's still a decent game.

The English translation is very bad throughout the whole game. The original language for this game is Chinese, and the massive number of positive reviews from Chinese players skew this game's ratings to Overwhelmingly Positive.

Understanding the character dialogue is important for a Life Sim like this type of game, so that you feel a connection with the characters in the game. But that's hard to do with this game's bad translations. It plays like any other stat management sim without good story and dialogue.

The game difficulty ramps up very quickly and it hurts the eyes to keep up with all of the fast moving elements on the screen.

This game looks promising at first glance but there's a reason why it has so few reviews.

This game is not a visual novel/dungeon crawler hybrid. It's a turn-based RPG with the occasional dialogue between characters. Is the dialogue and story good? No. Is the gameplay fun? Also no. The rpg/dungeon crawling mechanics are too simple and the game has some random and unnecessary mechanics like the crafting system and the fishing minigame, which don't add to the game. It feels like they're there just to be ticked off a checklist rather than to blend in with the rest of the game and enhance the overall experience.

Each character also has a turn timer which takes forever to fill up and there's no way to speed up the combat, so you're just staring at the screen and are waiting for your turn to come for a good chunk of your playtime.

TLDR: Boring game and definitely not worth the price.

The puzzles are boring, the writing and translation is bad, and the faces are badly drawn.
The puzzles are too much of a hassle to get through just to get to the CGs. The DLC is not worth it either.

Decent visuals, bad English translations and English Voice Acting. Though you can mute the voice acting. This isn't a visual novel, but a kinetic one where you are given choices which don't result in any different dialogue options or endings.

The writing is bad and the characters don't have enough personality do differentiate them from one another. And what little personality they do have gets abandoned with the ♥♥♥♥♥♥ ending.

The artist should have sold the CGs online instead of trying to make a half-assed kinetic novel which feel secondary to the art and animations that appear in random sequence without any coherent explanations.

TLDR: Very short kinetic novel with bad writing. Not worth it unless you want the 7 effortless steam achievements.

Very good murder mystery game. The order in which the mysteries are revealed is coherent. Also, the story has no filler content or filler routes just for the sake of making the game longer. The art style is nice and the game gets the horror parts just right for the game to be spooky at times but still have a coherent storyline with some good mystery.
