Danganronpa has made me seriously consider the worth of a visual novel as a video game. On the pessimistic side, my opinion of games such as the Ace Attorney series have soured now that I know visual novels can be far more than glorified movies with point-and-click elements.
But as you can probably tell from my score, this is a VERY good thing for Danganronpa. The class trials have so many elements to them that you'll still get introduced to new mechanics into the second to last chapter. These all exist to engage you with the material and actually feel like you're playing a video GAME as the story plays out.
And speaking of the story, it's incredibly good. Obviously I won't be spoiling anything here, but know that this game puts a lot of work into properly pacing its story elements across its runtime, making the climaxes as satisfying as they are.
