The gameplay is similar to Time Hollow in a way. You scratch the screen to locate something and then press on it. I think it's okay, but the words and stuff seems pretty disturbing o.O . I'm thinking this is supposed to be psychological.

Hm... okay, now I certainly see why this game gets low scores. The story is bat-shit insane. The gameplay is literally just touchscreen-rape and find worms. At least Time Hollow had a nice story and it wasn't just scratch scratch scratch.

Yes, the story is pretty bad, the gameplay is really boring... and dear God the translation is so bad. 70% of the time the subtitles are completely different from the voices.

So why do you guys hate it so much? Although its a bit confusing, it seems good so far.
Who hates it? Where? Is it good? What is it you do in the game, gameplay-wise? How do you know if you're winning? I have more questions about this game than other people do for Twin Peaks. The developers probably should have studied when it's okay and not okay to use the "en media res" beginnings.

Hm... You know, I LOVED Time Hollow, but this just seems like a really sloppy game. Good thing it was free, cause I'm about to get rid of it. Like I said before:

-Horrible translation
-Really bad storyline, doesn't explain anything, you go to random places and go through random events for no apparent reason, the mechanics of the game are NOT explained.
-Touchscreen-rape, boring gameplay.

The only good thing this game has going for it is the graphics and I guess voice acting. I really recommend people not to waste their time with this game.

tried to get into this, but ended up thinking to myself, WTF is going on, where is the gameplay its like playing a game made like your flicking through a b movie script and scratch cards lol. i was looking forward to this, it had good potential. from the trailers etc it looked something like a persona type game (lookswise) but god was i wrong

a real let down...

was going to try it but after reading everyones comments i might give it a miss, if im in the mood for an adventure game i'll try Broken Sword out instead sounds much better than this. I've got too many other new games to play anyway, just starting getting into Suikoden so far so good.
