Review: Conception Plus: Maidens of the Twelve Stars (Sony PlayStation 4)

October 23, 2019

Conception/Conception Plus/fan service/fanservice/JRPG/PlayStation 4/PS4 Review/Reviews/Roguelike/satire/Spike Chunsoft

Review by Matt S. The Conception series is much smarter than people give it credit for. After all, it’s a fanservicey JRPG where you need to breed with a harem of women to create an army of little soldier-people. There are a lot of people that would look at that…

Censorship/localisation/Opinion/Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE/Video/Video review

Video by Matt S. Just as a quick note: While this video discusses Tokyo Mirage Sessions, I don’t have any footage of that, so instead I’ve just pulled together a whole lot of fan service game footage, but that stuff is fun. The whole “censorship” debate has blown up a…

Review by Matt S. I first visited Japan around 11 years ago, and one of the things I remember most vividly from the trip was going along to an art exhibition for interactive and electronic art. I remember because it was being held in one of Tokyo’s most prestigious galleries…

We’ve got a bit of a themed episode going this week! It’s all about the retro! From watching let’s plays of difficult to find games, to the decline of arcades (even in Japan – sniff), and a new, gorgeous console that will play your Game Boy games, retro gaming is…

News by Matt S. In yesterday’s CUC we shared the news that there would be a sequel to the gorgeous, beautiful mystery visual novel, Root Letter, and that it would be called Root Film. Now we’ve got the great news that Root Film will indeed be localised, by PQube, the…

Review: Destiny Connect: Tick-Tock Travelers (Nintendo Switch)

October 21, 2019

Destiny Connect/Destiny Connect: Tick Tock Travelers/JRPG/Nintendo Switch/Nippon Ichi Software/NISA/Reviews/Switch Review

Review by Matt S. What a sweet little JRPG Tick-Tock Travelers is. It runs at about 20 hours in length, it has a difficulty level that’s pitched for the young, a charm that will appeal to the young at heart, and it offers a nice little riff on the the…

Review: Felix The Reaper (Nintendo Switch)

October 21, 2019

Felix the Reaper/Indie/Nintendo Switch/Puzzle Game/Reviews/Switch Review

Review by Trent P. The relationship Felix The Reaper has with music and with dance is the kind of feeling you get at a wedding (that is not your own). That bubbly free flowing love music that permeates the entire music selection. However it also feels like it comes from…

Conception/Conception Plus/fanservice/JRPG/Roguelike/Spike Chunsoft/Video/Video review

Video by Matt S. Spike Chunsoft’s next one is Conception Plus; a roguelike JRPG with a more than healthy dose of fan service and all the hilarity that brings. But as I explore in this video, there is so much more to Conception than that. It won’t necessarily resonate with…

News by Matt S. One of the bits of news that flew a little under the radar, among everything else that Gust and Koei Tecmo is doing at the moment, was that we’d be getting a package of all three Dusk games on PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch and PC. Gust…
