The fuller the heart gauge, the better chance the player has at winning a good ending with their chosen bachelor! The stat raising mechanic can be a bit repetitive, but thankfully this game shines when it comes to interesting characters, an exciting plot and detailed illustrations. You may think things are pretty straightforward, but that is only because you have not met the Wizard yet… Dandelion -Wishes brought to you- is a very pleasant, and very entertaining, otome game.
In it you play as a first year psychology student who wakes up with no memory of who she is an especially fitting title, do you not think? A spirit named Orion explains to the player that he has accidentally merged with your consciousness, effectively pushing out all of your memories!
You must cunningly figure out who you are and what you do in the world, all the while making sure no one figures out your secret. Getting locked up inside a hospital will do little to stimulate those memories back, after all. To make things even more complicated, a strange guy appears claiming to be your boyfriend!
Can you trust him? If so, will you be able to fall in love with him all over again? Each bachelor has a very unique personality, with an equally unique story to tell. The addition of these levels adds an enjoyable amount of challenge. Keeping the suspicion bar empty and the trust bar full is not enough, it may even go against your favour! There are also a lot of fun extras, including side stories and mini games. If this was due to her missing memories, then, to take the idea further, it would have been nice to see different personalities develop depending on what route the player chose.
You can find my review of Amnesia: Memories here. Norn9: Var Commons is a visual novel developed by Idea Factory. It was given an English publication by Aksys Games in November, The game delighted English fans and their PS Vitas, giving us a unique otome game with three heroines and a subtle sci-fi setting.
A young boy named Sorata stars in the prologue. Seemingly transported into the past, the highly intelligent Sorata is frightened and confused. He is lead onto a mechanical biosphere by a kindly girl called Koharu. They meet a number of passengers on this strange airship, some of whom have supernatural abilities! To find out what on earth is going on, you must chose to play as one of three heroines: Koharu, Mikoto or Nanami.
Play their routes, find out their secrets, fall in love and solve the mystery behind this bizarre, yet familiar, world!
Norn9: Var Commons definitely packs in the content. With nine different routes, each with numerous endings, short stories, bonus CGs, character interviews, an 8-bit mini game and more, you are unlikely to get bored with this otome. The downside of having so much content seems to be a lack of continuity in terms of story quality. Some routes are given more attention than others, with the same plot developments being repeated across multiple character stories.
I also think more could have been done with the three heroines. If you are going to have three main characters, you might as well have them there for a reason, right? The game could have been a bit more special if more thought had been put into how the characters interact with each other.
Despite this, Norn9: Var Commons was a truly fun game to play with lots of interesting characters and gorgeous art to admire. You can find my review of Norn9: Var Commons here. In this otome game you play as an ordinary high school student named Sayori. One day she finds a shiny trinket buried in mud. She picks it up, and that night she has the strangest dream she has ever had! A princess of the ancient Mochizuki clan begs her for help in preventing her assassination.
The next morning, Sayori wakes up in Hatsuhime castle! In order to save the poor princess, Sayori must befriend several rough-around-the-edges ronin types and ask for their help. Will Sayori be able to change history? Yo-Jin-Bo is another otome game that fills me with nostalgia.
There are five bachelors for Sayori to fall in love with, all with colourful personalities and interesting character designs. Humour also plays a large part in the game, and you are sure to find yourself laughing over the characters antics a particular scene involving a hot spring comes to mind.
Yo-Jin-Bo also has a surprisingly adult tone attached to it nipples are left censorship-free! The game might be slighted dated in design, and for sure, a plot involving time travel and body swapping is far from unique nowadays, but Yo-Jin-Bo is a pleasing classic that I cannot help but recommend. You play as the intuitive heroine, Saki Inafune, who gets invited to a videogame-themed theme park designed by her uncle.
She, along with six attractive men, must face puzzles, riddles, zombies, songs and combat, before time runs out and the bombs littering the park go off! The heroine is a bit of a bomb herself, one that goes off through anger! The screen will shake and you will begin to see red as you decide whether or not Saki should lose her cool. With an intriguing story and entertaining characters, Sweet Fuse: At Your Side is not an otome game you want to miss! Under the instruction of her missing father, the lonely Cardia lives inside a dilapidated mansion, completely isolated from the world.
Afflicted with a condition that makes her skin poisonous to the touch, she is dubbed a monster and feared by the locals. One day the Royal Guards ambush poor Cardia in the night. Together they attempt to cure Cardia of her condition, find her missing father and solve a number of mysteries that plague London.
Love may well may be on the table, but so is the threat of war, murder, genocide and conspiracy. Will Cardia be able to help these young men with their own afflictions? There is some excellent writing in this game, and the variety present in character routes is truly impressive.
The sweet, soft-spoken Victor Frankenstein will take you down a road you never expected. Likewise the mysterious Count Saint-Germain will shock you in ways you never thought possible!
Cardia herself is a heroine players will be proud to play as. Cardia is brave, intelligent, kind and has a mind of her own. This young lady can hold her own, and indeed Cardia will sometimes play the hero who rescues her love interest. Cardia is not a bland, empty shell in which a player must project themselves on, a trait which many otome games fail to appreciate. There is a reason why five remarkable men fall in love with Cardia, and you are sure to fall for her charms too!
You can read my full review of the game here. You play as high school student Eri the name is changeable. Not long ago, Eri lived with her grandfather. The elderly gentleman loved her very much, and together they made lots of wonderful memories that Eri cherishes. Memories are very important to Eri, so much so that she diligently records her thoughts and activities every day in a diary. Her grandfather passes away, and for a while, Eri was a very lonely young girl who lived by herself.
She found solace in an unusual hobby: ball-jointed dolls. She collects a total of five, and forms a strong bond with them. This is all for Eri, but if she does not remember everything soon, those memories she cherishes so much will be lost to her forever…. Fluidity between character routes is vital to gameplay, with the events of one storyline directly influencing the beginning of the next.
Characterisation has been spread equally, with each bachelor receiving the same measure of content and detail.
That is not to say that you will not have your favourites, or that every route touches on similar themes. With such vastly different personalities and unusual backstories, Cheritz has managed to keep every route enjoyably special.
Magic, mystery and love awaits you in this merry-go-round of an otome game! It may only be early , but already there are some very exciting otome games scheduled to be released this year! One otome game to be hyped about is Ozmafia from Manga Gamer. Inspired by two intriguing themes, The Wizard of Oz and the mafia, Ozmafia features familiar characters with some deadly twists.
Players better prepare themselves, because they are not in Kansas anymore! The game will be available for PC only and will include partial voice acting. Another game to look out for this year is Mystic Messenger from Cheritz. Quality is not something Cheritz skimps on, and so it is my hope that Mystic Messenger lives up to its predecessors.
In this otome game you play as the trainee Beastmaster, Tiana. In her travels she encounters four Princes from the neighbouring kingdom of Farzan, who were cursed and transformed into animals by a witch! Tiana wants to save the Princes, but soon learns that the curse was only the beginning of a conspiracy brewing within the kingdom… If funded the game will be available on Steam, and if stretch goals are met, the game will also be available on iOS and Android.
