- Your Opinion = Android Otome Games >w< ! -

#1 Post by CuppieKeyk » Thu Aug 30, 2012 10:11 am

Well well, As if I play some of them, I just want some of your opinions about it .
I don't have ANDROID and not desiring to have one because I don't have HARD CASH XD.

It's just that, Their story plots, the arts, and the characteristics of the game is amusing, Amazing and Tantalizing[Wut? O.O] ! :mrgreen:

->So what ?
Ren'py can be installed in Android, But also for PC
Look for Google games, which are free.. but you need android for it, Which I don't have TTuTT.
Nothing, just thought and want to know what you think about those Games which are so organized and polished but is really needed Android Tablet for them to be played. [Expect for someone who have Android and have played some of them, Luckily your in heaven =DD]

But ! I .. REALLY .. AM .. CRAZY ... ABOUT THIS. TTuTT

-Most of the time when your net goes crazy and you want to download some of them [THE Games for PC/Games for ANDROID],searching for Android - PC so you can play them but you can't because your net is insane and I am stupid the Laptop goes weird and then I can't do anything but to wait 24 hours before it be completed. I hate this situation, Althought It happens to me EVERYDAY-

Now what ? :mrgreen:

Eh... I don't have an Android device, but from what I've heard, it isn't too good. :/ The games are really short and laggy, since the phone isn't really a gaming device. It's for really casual gamers, and there's a very small variety of games.

IMHO, I think you should stick to PC games.

I think it depends on your device. I got 2 android (1 tablet and 1 smartphone) and their quiet different, both in performance speed and color (my smartphone made my game looks reddish). Don't be wrong about phone isn't a gaming device. Of course gaming is not the main purpose, but I see some people has started to buy smartphone just to play game. Even I heard that Nintendo etc that make mobile console (DS PSP etc) already cautious about this situation since some people has start using smartphone as the replacement of them. Just see some popular game like Phoenix Wright that already ported to smartphone.

I myself is thinking to port to android too but then some problem (like different resolution for each phone) gives me plenty of "extra jobs"...

Back to topic, too bad but there's not much otome game on Android currently -.-

Is that so.. Fuu,
But people keep on telling me that they were good !
But I think I prefer playing at my DS and I'm comfortable with it. Mostly with my PSP.
xD
Whatever. I just felt like it. But I really have no intention buying Android, Just borrow it xD.

Majority of ones I've tried wasn't worth it. Some had great looking characters but almost $5 for a character ?! He'll no. It ain't worth it. Plus they usually very short compared to pc or other platforms

Yea, I was curious and bought all the routes to My Forged Wedding - an Android otome game.

It was... What... 4.99 for each route, and 2.99 for each bonus ending? >_> It was neat and polished, but so short, and the story/characters weren't anything special.

Okay there was one character obsessed with his Roomba vacuum and that was kinda cute.

The character descriptions were sorta lying. I think it said one guy was dangerous (!?) but he was actually one of the nicer guys out of the entire routes. I actually wrote down my impressions somewhere, maybe if I find it I'll post it (terrible at writing reviews/impressions ^^; )

There's Love Academy which is free, but you have to wait 24 hours to get 10 points to forward one scene (and each scene is so short). Only finished 2 chapters for one route, but 1 chapter consisted of eating bento on the roof... and the other hanging out at a school festival. You can buy points so you can breeze through the scenes but the shop never seems to work. It's 25 bucks for the whole game (which has 4 characters), but you can buy just one route or a small number of points as well.

I'm pretty much in agreement with most of the comments people have put up so far, though there are a couple games I haven't seen mentioned that I thought were pretty good, so here we go! :)

Be My Princess for Gree: A pretty fun, social, free to play game that I've really been enjoying so far. It does have all the typical traits of a free to play social game, getting help from "friends" in game, paying for quicker advancement/better items, and daily limits on free actions, but thus far I haven't found it nearly as annoying as other ones of that variety. I haven't spent any money yet, and have greatly enjoyed the story so far. There are a decent range of personalities among the princes, and it seems that nothing is locked behind a payment wall. I believe with patience you can get most everything with no real cost. However it doesn't scale at all for larger screens (looks tiny on my tablet), and requires a data connection as the whole thing is run off a server. I'd still recommend it if you have the patience though. :)

Winter Wolves Games: Winter Wolves has begun transferring their collection of released titles over to Android, and thus far on the Otome front we have Heileen 1 and 2, Always Remember Me, Spirited Heart, Winter in Fairbrook, Planet Stronghold, and Vera Blanc. There are free demos of each, and the full version usually costs about $5. I've purchased a couple of my favorites, some of which I also own for PC, and have found them to be perfect ports. There were some initial problems with Always Remember Me's endings not working on larger screens, but it has now been fixed. If you're a fan of Winter Wolves' games these are a great way to play them on the go. :)

Ren'Py Android: Not a Otome game precisely, but with a little bit of work this can let you play most Ren'Py games on Android! Newer/fancier ones tend to have some problems with crashing, and anything requiring keyboard input is right out, but I have managed to play a few of my favorites from here on my tablet using this. :)

Hehe, Thanks cha ! I've also tried it on my Auntie's Galaxy tab.. it seems that Android games from google play [Which are free, or even not] Weren't that long and not that special.. [I mean, there's no thrill] Unlike from PC games or PSP games.. they're really good and your 18-20$ is enough for you to sleep 5 days. XD

I've also decided to agree from everyone's comment because I manage to try it. >w<

Lol, finally finished a (free) route in Love Academy since you could only view 1-3 portions a day until the ending.

Also, if your affinity is too low with the character, you can sacrifice points to raise the love meter and unlock the good or super ending.

It was so boring. x.x

I did Takumi (sp? >.> I don't even remember his name), well the only megane character who is also the childhood friend.

It basically went like this:

School festival event -> fireworks festival event -> school sports day festival event -> birthday -> holycrapsomeplotanddrama -> ending.

Since it's freeeee (if you don't buy the points) it doesn't hurt, but I almost wanted to GIVE money so I could breeze through the route and get it over with. ~_~ Just started the 2nd route and it's even worse. I didn't even touch the sadist characters yet.

It's like stale popcorn. Why do I keep eating it. D:

Agreeing with the above posts about costs and just plain slow/laggy gameplay.
It might just be that my android is almost full already, but gah. The free to play facebook-esque game sounds fun, though.

Only one I've tried is Love Academy and there's a good reason why it's free. It's incredibly lackluster, the translation has plenty of typos and Engrish for me to rip my eyes out, and... characters? What characters? Did you mean those sparkling pictures of boys that have the most inappropriate expressions during "serious" scenes? They're just some sprites from a bundle packed into a glossy thing with inklings of personalities in them. Not even that; I'm playing Haku's route and I'm laughing at his little sob story. The game switched POV to him (my sister is playing Takumi or something, that megane childhood friend of yours) and then there's this huge infodump about how
his parents forced him to play the violin and he ran away from home.
Big whoop, I hardly care because seriously? I barely spent any time with him while the game was from the protag's POV. I don't expect it to get any better. At least there are CGs.

I'm almost tempted to uninstall the damn thing but I feel like I should keep playing to remind myself why I hate these bland romances. Am I the only one playing for a story? If I'm getting anything out of this, it's How Not to Write an Otome Game.
/end rant
I have a deep seeded hatred for time wasters like these.

I just went through that as well, and now Haru is all
NO I DON'T WANT YOU TO SING FOR ANOTHER PERSON
Am I supposed to care for him yet?

Lemme know when your sister reaches Takumi's sob story.
