This game is absolutely a must play for anyone into mysterys, VNs, or both. The circumstances around the Second (and first) Cyclops Killings is at the top of its game and is gripping the entire way through. Nearly the entire cast is suspect and the twist is equal parts insane and also incredibly obvious... that is if you play Mizuki route first. See AI is split into two core sections, Mizuki route and Iris route. And Iris route is well. Kind of a clusterfuck that makes no sense and leaves with completely confused until you play nearly the entire game. But its conclusion more than makes up for it and it works perfectly by end. SPOILER - if you don't know Iris has goop for brains you're likely just be absoulety confused and scratching you head why you play Minecraft 3 times. Like I did. END SPOILER Another issue I have is the humor. Its a Spike Chuni game so of course its gonna have the flair of pervy humor and mostly it works very well, but mainly in action scenes where the MC is enhanced by hearing about porn mags, it gets a bit tiresome. Overall, can't wait for 2!

Arms is a neat concept but its lack of depth and content really holds it back. Its not fun enough to be a goofy casual game, and its not deep enough to be considered a fun fighter. Most of the depth comes from the different arms and how they synergize with each character. (of who only have 1 or 2 unique gimmicks) which lends to most of the fun of this game bleeding between characters, not what you want in a fighter. A shame to as the character designs are brimming with life and truly pop in the 2D art that serves as unlockable. That being said my brother and I managed to clock in 50+ hours into it so take that as you will.

I really can't say much that hasn't been said on Mania. Its incredible, easily the pinnacle of 2D Sonic. The music, the game design, the sprite work. Absolutely wonderful. The only issue is the the fact most of the game is made up of returning stages, but all of them are so well redone its hardly an issue. A must play.

Rolling all versions of Minecraft as one game, I have likely played this single game more than anything else in my life. Like most my generation it is a defining key aspect of everyone I know's gaming experience. Little can match the emotion that comes when the first few sporadic keys of Sweden start to play.
