"Henshinko!" is an incredibly weird and cringey LGBTQIA+ friendly game that's part Japanese pachinko simulator, but mostly incredibly cringey e-book writing where the author addresses his fantasies of turning into a woman. Right. The writing is incredibly bad and doesn't make any sense when welded to a really poor quality pachinko game. There's an overwhelming amount of mediocre Visual Novel/E-book style cutscenes in this game. The developers failed one of the most basic, fundamental requirements of game design.. "Show, don't tell." So you'll spend a huge amount of time not playing the game, but clicking through endless lines of poorly written VN text cutscenes because the developers couldn't work out how to relate their narrative through the game mechanics, and decided instead it would be better to compete with reading a book for your time. We're here to play games, not read through hours of garbage intersituals. Your gaming rig is not a Kindle. The graphics here are particularly awful, mostly text and some really crappy MS paint tier drawings of what the developer thinks he would look like if he was a woman, so bad that it actually stands out as one of the worst looking games on Steam. Quite an accomplishment. It's a big contributor to the failure of the game to attract gamers despite having no up-front cost. Gaming is a primarily visual medium, and if developers want to succeed, they must understand that it's not an area for compromise. Now onto pricing and value. This is "free" enough (not every "free" game in the "free" section is truly free, there's usually some hidden price tag), at least you won't be expected to spend any more money after you download this, but just because something is free doesn't mean it's good, and the cost of a game is more than just financial, your time is valuable too. Even as a free game, this couldn't find an audience. With a peak of [b]only 3 players[/b], it's clear the Steam community took one look and walked away. They literally couldn't pay people to spend time playing this. This "free" game won't count toward your game collection count on your profile. With that in mind, is it something you should still download? I can't recommend this. I didn't have to pay for this, but I still feel ripped off. At the end of the day, my reviews are intended to help gamers find quality and avoid the dregs (with over 140,000 games on Steam... not all of them are masterpieces). If you think my review is wrong, definitely add this to your library, download it and play it... it's surely exactly the kind of game you'll love (but I doubt it will work out that way). Game reviews are for gamers to share their thoughts and help others choose where to spend valuable time. If my review helps you to grab or reject this game, then my job is done.

Игра 'Henshinko!' – это яркий и динамичный платформер, который подкупает своей оригинальной механикой превращений. Главный герой, благодаря волшебному костюму, может принимать различные формы животных, каждая из которых открывает уникальные способы прохождения уровней. Где-то нужно проскользнуть узким тоннелем в виде мыши, где-то забраться на высокую стену в виде обезьяны, а где-то расправиться с врагами в виде мощного медведя. Уровни хорошо продуманы и требуют не только ловкости, но и стратегического мышления. Приходится постоянно экспериментировать с формами, чтобы найти оптимальный путь. Графика выполнена в приятном, мультяшном стиле, а саундтрек отлично дополняет динамичный геймплей. Однако, стоит отметить, что игра может показаться немного короткой. Хотелось бы увидеть больше уровней и новых форм для превращений. Тем не менее, 'Henshinko!' – это отличное развлечение, которое оставит приятные впечатления. Рекомендую всем любителям платформеров с оригинальной идеей и хорошим исполнением.
