A masterpiece of story telling everyone should play. Pulls off dark humor in a way that doesn't hinder the story and doesn't come off as edgy teenager shit. Trigger list is worth a read if interested though.
Only complaint is that sometimes ledges that lead to game overs are right on the edge of zones, so when you transition into a new screen you may run right off a cliff and lose progress if you haven't saved in awhile.

The result of rushed game development and over ambition. Could have been something incredible with more time in the oven.
All that being said it's still pretty good for what it is and I don't think it's a waste of time to play. But you better have exactly that, time. This game is much longer than it has any right to be.

An rpg maker classic. This game blew my little prepubescent mind in 2013 and I don't think I would be the person I am today without it. To this day no other game I have played illicits the atmosphere yume nikki creates except maybe a few of its fangames. Will not be for everyone but if you enjoy atmospheric exploration games it's definitely worth your time.

The worst ost in a game I have ever played and I love her for it

Yume nikki but better, seriously.
The community effort has made this game massive alongside quality of life changes that the original should have had. The game being continously updated means there's always something new to explore and look forward to.
Unfortunately the massive scale of the project is also to its detriment. since it's a slew of other people's work, it lacks a sort of cohesion and atmosphere yume nikki has. It's a mish mash of everything that's a joy to play and uncover, but poor in theory crafting and interpretation, which is what made yume nikki so well revered.
By all means, yume 2kki is a better game than yume nikki and still deserves 5 stars, but I think the original will always have the leg up.

It's ok.
Dream sections dragged and felt like funny haha quirky earthbound humor was being injected directly into my bloodstream. I really did not like this part of the game. Its not as bad as some other games in the same wheelhouse but if I had not watched a playthrough I would not have finished this game myself.
Real life sections were astromically better but still felt pretty tounge in cheek about serious topics. Had no subtlety and some things felt like they were just trying to be deep to make the game ""better"".
The presentation of the twist at the end was top notch though, easily my favorite part of the game. Art style and presentation in general were pretty good.

Gameplay is some of the worst I played but everything else is crafted with such care that it's my second favorite fe game. Would not recommend as a gateway into the series but if you played a fe or two before and are patient, give it a shot.
Objectively it's not 4.5 stars but it's 4.5 stars in my heart so who care.

13 sentinels is in this unique category of game where it's a pretty obscure title, but also highly overrated by those who have played it. this is dangerous because it leads to a hugbox where no one is willing to offer negative critique.
That being said, 13 sentinels might have the most well crafted narrative in a video game I've ever played. Perhaps ever.
"the best" does not equal "my favorite", however. I have my own personal hiccups towards it.
To go into detail would go into spoilers, but the characters to me, while not bad by any stretch of the imagination, could feel more like props to further the (stellar) narrative than actual people/characters at times... most of the time, actually. I have other things I could talk about but this game is basically a spoiler landmine, and 13s is best experienced blind to the best of your ability.
Don't let me being picky deter you from buying this game. Buy it yourself and form your own opinion, it's often on sale and if your a fan of Sci fi you will definitely enjoy your time.

This is everything I hate about depections of hell and sexualization of women so much so that it looped back around in my brain and I enjoyed it. Neat game

Cool keihin gang feature /s

The best indie 3d platformer I've ever played. Prefer playing this than some triple A titles. Has a lot of heart
Don't play on switch though if you have a choice. Load times are awful.
