Kokuchou no Psychedelica (PS Vita)

Otomate

I wondered what’s with all the hype in this game and now I know why. I walked in completely clueless about it and walked out full of despair. But I did not regret it. I wanted to learn more about the mansion, the characters, everything and felt frustrated when the other characters won’t even say anything to Beniyuri. But when the truth came out, I was bawling and was like “my babies T_____T, please be happy. All of you.”

I TRIED TO KEEP THIS SPOILER-FREE BUT FAILED. YOU’VE BEEN WARNED.

Code:Realize ~Shukufuku no Mirai~ (Code:Realize ~祝福の未来~)

Code:Realize ~祝福の未来~ (PS Vita)

Otomate

Code:Realize ~Shukufuku no Mirai~ explores all the possible scenarios it can squeeze out of its setting. Otomate decides that this game is a cross between a fan disk (FD), a sequel, and a spin-off. But they promote it as a fan disk, so my expectations are that of an FD – fun, light, and full of lovey-dovey moments. It seems like Otomate’s idea of FD is different than mine because I certainly don’t think FDs should contain even more heartbreaks than the first game.

Code:Realize ~Sousei no Himegimi~ (Code:Realize ~創世の姫君~)

Title: Code:Realize ~創世の姫君~
Platform: PS Vita

I played Code:Realize longer than I should have but I still don’t want to finish the game during my Lupin play through. I have no expectation when I started this and other than dating bishie Lupin. Though, I totally did not expect to play the otome version of Fullmetal Alchemist www. But hey, I’m not complaining.

If anything else, Code:Realize is an enjoyable game. It’s more of an adventure than otome, like 80:20 ratio (95:5 for Van hehe). But there’s a good balance between the two. A good plot with a mix of romance on the side is my cup of tea. The common story is long but I love how it gives chance to introduce the character, giving a glimpse of what to expect on their route. It also gives chance in building the trust and relationship of everyone. I love stories with good friendships and Code:Realize gives me just that. These guys are #squadgoals.

Meanwhile, she is having a recurrent dream of a world in ruins. All of a sudden, the people she meets in her dreams starts appearing in real life…

I was so ecstatic when they announced the PS Vita port of Clock Zero. Not only because of better graphics, but also the addition of Nakaba’s route. I was pretty sure anyone who have played the PS2 or the PSP version wished they could play his route. After all, Nakaba grew up in to a fine young lad. (ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ*:・゚✧

Since I’ve played the PSP ver, I skipped most of the game (the skip scene feature is a pretty nifty thing). This post will mostly be about the added features in the PSV port. You may refer to my previous CZ post.
