Haven't started yet, but I would assume one should start with The Missing Heir since that is the first game in the series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyser_Soze Posted May 16, 2021 Author Share Posted May 16, 2021 I cashed my Golden State Stimulus™ so maybe I'll take the plunge on this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyser_Soze Posted May 17, 2021 Author Share Posted May 17, 2021 So I just PURCHASED this and I might even PLAY it later tonight. I'll let @best3444 know my thoughts after I PLAY this game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyser_Soze Posted May 18, 2021 Author Share Posted May 18, 2021 @best3444 I played about an hour and a half of the first game (The Missing Heir) so far. This game feels like a cross between an adventure game and a visual novel, lot's of dialogue but there are interactive elements (like choosing where to look on the screen). It's a bit of a slow starter but I'm definitely intrigued with the mystery. There's not much in terms of options. The game is voiced entirely in Japanese, no English dub. There is an option to hear the original famicom music, which is a nice novelty, but the new arranged music is a better fit plus has added ambiance which is removed if you listen to the original soundtrack. I think the game looks great though. Very detailed art, backgrounds are beautiful. I think the models are 3D but look like a cartoon (like an ASW game). It was developed by Mages who's done other Visual Novels (like a shitload of them) so I feel that they were the right people for the job. In any case I'll certainly continue this game though I will say it probably won't be everyone's cup of tea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll have to look up vids to see it. Thanks for the impressions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stepee Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 So it’s kind of like an Ace Attorney game without the court cases? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Best Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 Watched some of the videos above. Looks kinda cool but I'd never play it. I'm just not into that type of game. Hope you enjoy it @Keyser_Soze Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
