Brave × Junction

Please don't be fooled by the Adult Content warning - the most "adult" material in this game are the three main character's revealing outfits. Your grandma would probably see these outfits and laugh than look at you funny. But on to the game - it's good! Blackjack is a great basis for the game's combat - you are (usually) trying to get to 21, and trying to make sure that your hand is better than the enemy's hand. Whoever wins does damage. What makes the game cool is how you can manipulate your hand using skills, or banking cards in a side pool. Along with status effects that you can apply to monsters, or have them apply to you, the math that you're doing is always shifting. There are multiple characters you can play as, each with different skill sets that help them manipulate the odds in their favor, whether it's tanking damage, manipulating the hand, or having an extreme variety of skills. And if that isn't enough, the game's equipment system offers a way to slowly upgrade and customize your play style with different passives. Equipment drops very freely, so don't feel shy and synthesize! An incredibly smart choice they made was that weapons have a base damage, and then a scaling number. The scaling number gives you Bonus Damage based on the absolute distance between your hand's number and the monster's - meaning that sometimes, it's actually GOOD to have a hand with a low number if you can reasonably assess that the monster will bust. What this all means is that yes, being good at blackjack helps, but I think it helps you be creative at understanding your odds and working with your tools to help. A recommendation I have is do not play with the timer off, if you can. While the game does (fairly in my mind) compensate the difficulty for giving you unlimited think time, I think it's much more exciting to make faster choices and be a bit messy. But if you ARE struggling with the card counting, this accessibility option is well-balanced and I don't think you'll walk away unhappy. As far as the story goes, it's extremely basic, but it takes itself seriously which is nice. No cutscene goes on for too long and you still get a good feeling for each character and their little quirks. I got to the credits roll but there is a lot of post-game content, and I'm excited to chew through that. My main complaint is that one of the characters you get has a very odd manner of speech, but I think that whoever did the English translation did not compensate enough and some sentences just don't make sense. Overall, this game is eleven dollars. I spent about 10 hours on the main quest, save for a few times I had to idle while doing something else. I'm not sure how long the post game is. But I'm already happy.

I'm very sad that Steam has marked this as Adult Only. Have a positive review to push the algorithm! (I'll write a more detailed review later.)

Why is this game marked as containing 'Frequent Nudity or Sexual Content.' It's not a hentai game or anything. Who is the prude that marked it as such? This game is great, btw. I'll play more once I have some free time this Christmas time.

Nintendo of America really hates fun.

Really fun game, the Blackjack battle system is fun and addictive. While the game is currently flagged "Adult Only," it really only features riské art/outfits, no nudity or explicit content here, so no, its not hentai and it was never meant to be, it has been misflagged by steam, nothing that warrants being hidden from the general public. If you can find it, buy it. It's a fun indie RPG with a blackjack gimick that deserves more eyes on it than the current tags allow.

Pretty fun, glad Steam declassified it as an "Adult Only" game because it's a damn shame this got shadow banned for no reason. Valve really needs to get it's head out of it's ass with all this anti-Japan culture.

Brave x Junction is a fantastic pick up and play kind of game with fast blackjack action. The game is has a story, but don't expect anything deep with it. That's fine though cause we are here for the addictive battles. If you are looking for something that you can pick up and put down easily with a quick and addictive gameplay loop, then give this a look. The game also provides your daily requirement of bikini armor, arguably a selling point. ((BTW, this NOT an adult game. If a character wearing revealing clothes makes this an adult game then so is literally any media that takes place at a beach.))

If you want a simple, bizarre RPG to turn your brain off with after work - this will do the trick. The 'turn based combat' is just quick rounds of blackjack, with a few extra trappings like status effects, holding cards and using skills. +Fast paced +Systems are shallow but well-realized +Excellent soundtrack (hilariously more expensive on its own than the game) +So bad it's good translation -Tutorials, while mostly unnecessary, are presented in the most bland way possible -Story and characters are incredibly dumb -Nothing to see here if you have zero interest in blackjack Despite being listed as such, this is NOT an adult game. I would also recommend playing this ASAP in case the translation gets patched...right now the dialogue is so mind-numbingly terrible I have had several laughing fits at a handful of exchanges. Definitely worth the relatively low asking price.
