Bionic Heart

Tags: Adventure - VN - Visual Novel Additional Tags: Delete Local Content & Remove from Library TLDR: Short and simple VN about robot vs human lover. Confused setting. Fully voice acted in house but a tad amateur. It is not really clear how robots are made, which is one of the central arcs of the short story and one of the main storyline of one of the romance-ables. Because of the psychological thriller plot hook early on, chances are you will want to romance the robot just to solve the mystery behind her presence and her escape. Which distracts from the human vs robot initial concept. You do not get to actually choose between the girls as only one seems to be available at a time on most segments. Instead you have the police station which acts as a trigger, and allows to presumably switch storyline over to the human partner by antagonizing the robot. In the end you find out that there is some weird criminal rehabilitation program that turns people robots, or that criminals turn themselves robotic to avoid sentencing? It is a tad unclear. I think they did a decent job making the robot sometimes unsettling, and since she is a prototype then it leaves the door open to her not acting in the way you would expect her to, and with a dash of suspension of disbelief that aspect of the writing felt fairly credible. On a positive note they also added evolving storyline at some branching points in the story where radically unique events can happen in each. So if you do get the hook for the setting, there is some reason to revisit the title to scratch out more content and lore out of it. Conclusion: Because of the somewhat generic setting, the botched dillemma between the two partners, the confusing robot lore and the limited interactivity it is hard to justify holding on to this game in permanent library. Might be worth spending an hour or two going through it once before discarding, but it is ultimately not impactful enough to really remain memorable so why bother.

Очень специфический на первый взгляд игра. При ее освоении вы для себя отметите: [i]1. Рисовка не азиатская, а по большей части на западный манер 2. Полная озвучка почти всех персонажей на английском 3. Кроме новеллки, игра сочетает в себе головоломочку и вариации в выбором ответа 4. Руссификатор ( имеется в Руководствах )[/i] Единственный момент, который заставит попотеть - выбивание ачивок. Я сначала скачал руссификатор, и потом в нее играл. Но дело в том, что все выборы и пояснения в гайдах написаны на Инглише - и чтобы запустился определенный диалог или выбор, надо выбрать соответствующий рут в развилке. Это немного муторно, из за этого я попотел с выбиванием хорошей концовки для основных персонажей, играя на Руссиче [b]В общих чертах: Продукт годный - High tech, Андроиды, интриги и все такое - очень неплохо[/b] [h1]Итогом: 10 Механических сердец из 10[/h1]

Pleasant Visual Novel with options to move to different places and a bit of interaction with the environment.

strange game, strange yet cliché story, strange behaviour of main characher and of other characters, yet there are some interesting cyberpunk vibes, but without miracles neither, a lot of voiced dialogues, all in all it seems hardly worth 10€, got that from giveaway (and that is probably the only way to correctly get that kind of game)

Bionic Heart is a decent short visual novel set in the cyberpunk world of London 2099. The story is complex with 24 different endings and several subplots, and you can choose to move between locations, which adds a layer of interactivity. It’s fully voiced, which is a nice touch for immersion. While some characters can get a bit annoying, overall it’s an enjoyable experience.

Ah o Tanya var ya o Tanya, adamın evini barkını yıkar namussuz! .d

[u]Ambition and Premise[/u] An ambitious indie visual novel that combines a cyberpunk corporate conspiracy, science fiction, romance simulation, and multiple-choice visual novel gameplay into something that is genuinely engaging despite its flaws. The unique and compelling premise centers on a permanently rain-soaked London in 2099, corrupt corporations, advanced nanotechnology, mysterious women, and a protagonist who finds himself drawn into events far larger than himself. [u]Strengths and Drawbacks[/u] The highlights are excellent cyberpunk atmosphere, an interesting blend of corporate thriller and romance simulation, multiple branching routes with meaningful choices, plenty of replay value, memorable soundtrack and artwork, several genuinely satisfying character endings, and an ambitious story. The flaws include a convoluted, uneven story, abrupt transitions, several characters who are difficult to sympathize with, and English voice acting that ranges from decent to unintentionally funny. [u]Story and Narrative[/u] The storytelling of a sci-fi thriller is rough but entertaining. The mystery surrounding Nanotech, Tanya, and the larger conspiracy was compelling, but the pacing could feel uneven at times. Certain plot points appear suddenly, while others do not receive enough development before the story moves on. The story occasionally becomes convoluted and somewhat disjointed, especially as multiple factions and character motivations begin to collide. However, it never fully reaches the point where everything becomes complete nonsense. Most plot twists have some logical foundation, even if the execution is not always smooth. [u]Cast and Characters[/u] The cast is memorable, although not always particularly likable. Luke Black serves as the protagonist, but he is far from a perfect hero. He can come across as selfish, indecisive, frustrating, or surprisingly courageous. Some branching routes show significant character growth, while others leave him difficult to root for. Tanya Vanic is the most intriguing character. She drives much of the mystery surrounding the plot and has one of the strongest romantic storylines. While she is not always easy to understand, she is consistently interesting. Helen Hughes provides a nice contrast to Tanya and has some genuinely heartfelt moments. Her routes tend to emphasize the more emotional side of the story. Tom Sparks is another character who can be surprisingly difficult to root for. His personality and decisions can be frustrating, though he still contributes meaningfully to the overall narrative. These characters are not universally lovable, but they are flawed in ways that often fit the world. [u]Romance and Multiple Endings[/u] Some endings are intentionally tragic. Some are bittersweet. Others are surprisingly satisfying. Some of the most personally strongest endings include Luke ending up with Tanya, Luke ending up with Helen, Luke successfully building relationships with both Tanya and Helen, and Luke redeeming himself, stepping up, and ultimately becoming the hero the story needs. Those endings felt the most rewarding after everything the characters go through. To unlock these unique endings, it is best to use multiple save slots, as many choices significantly alter later events, and constantly replaying from the beginning can become tedious. Keeping saves before major decisions makes unlocking all 24 Unique Endings dramatically easier and saves dozens of hours of repeated reading. There is also a fair amount of fanservice. It never completely overwhelms the main story, but it is definitely present and worth mentioning. [u]Voice Acting[/u] The English voice acting and performances are noteworthy but extremely inconsistent. Some scenes sound perfectly acceptable. Others are unfortunately pretty cringey, with awkward line delivery and strange emotional timing.

Tam olarak istediğimi seçemesem de hikaye ilgimi çekti. Seçime göre sonuç değişiyor. İlgi çekiciydi. Kısa sürdü. Keyif verdi. Para ile satın almayı önermem ama zaten hesapta varsa oynamayı öneririm.

A very well put together VN! Although a few of the characters could get annoying at times it didn't take too much away from the story. The voice acting was well done, apart from a few mic peaks from time to time.

Novela grafica con 24 finales... con eso te lo digo todo, casi cada accion que haces cuenta :D
