    This is an intriguing game, but a little different than what I was expecting. I am still trying to figure out my way around it, but I think with more practice I can get there.

    It’s a bit slow at the beginning but really picks up in the story . It’s a pretty decent game.

    As someone who was looking for that Danganronpa itch, this is really good. The first case alone was mind-numbing in the best of ways.

    A complete disappointment from how hyped-up the game has been by the developers and their previous work. Game is a slog to get through and the mystery is sadly predictable. Just really disappointed.

    Very fun game, definitely captures the spirit of Danganronpa, down to the introductory characters that are depicted on the cover with intricate designs and personalities and great voice acting... (SPOILER) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ....which were completely wasted after being unceremoniously killed off. Love the game, still angry about how they wasted 5 character designs.

  • Cons mentioned:
    Performance

    Rated 4 out of 5 stars

    Danganronpa... 1.5?

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    So if you're looking for more Danganronpa-like gameplay, this is absolutely your game... The deduction segments play out exactly like Danganronpa's Non Stop debates but with character movement instead of a cursor. And it's certainly an intriguing new setting and story. But performance is absolutely, unequivocally "hot garbage". It can barely maintain 30 FPS even while docked, there is obvious texture load-in, certain visual effects don't turn on right away, audio glitches all over... It really can take you out of it. These games are notoriously easy to spoil so if you're even remotely interested, you should pick it up. Oh wait, you can't, because at the time of writing this, it's sold out. Perhaps Spike Chunsoft didn't expect this game to do well at all and didn't produce a whole lot of copies. So wait for a sale on the eShop and get it that way.
