Hoje vamos falar sobre este jogo, seu objetivo é namorar una magica menina, enquanto uma série de horríveis asassinatos acontecem fora das aulas. O que se esconde por trás do fatto que você é o unico homem na ecola de mulheres? É Rei realmente uma tomboy? É dificil platinar esse jogo? Quão bom é o francês de Kaori? É Miyu uma dominatrix? Eu não vou te dar as respostas para essas perguntas, você tem que jogá-lo. -Eu precisei esperar mais de 4 meses para comprá-lo a um bom preço no Natal na bagatela de 3 dólares viu, eu tinha que economizar meu dinheiro. -Eu quebrei minha cabeça tentando entender como conseguir um ingrediente para a poção. No fim, descobri que era um bug e tive que começar de novo. Mas bugs não acontecem com muita frequência, ainda bem. -Não é um jogo gore, mas algumas mortes sim são. Estou falando de você, Yui. É tão difícil encontrar mais jogos assim. -Se parece com Doki Doki: uma história tranquila que se torna sombria, mas é muito mas longo que DDLC. Mas se você precisa que eu escolha entre DDLC ou Magical Girl, eu sempre vou escolher DDLC. Magical Girl é muito mais complexo de completar do que DDLC. Ainda bem que há dois guias para o jogo, porque, de outra forma, como eu saberia que preciso economizar 100.000 moedas para a Kaori? -Você tem 8 meses para namorar uma das 5 meninas e maximizar todos os seus atributos, você pode tentar namorar 2 ou mais garotas ao mesmo tempo mas é muito dificil, e no final você só pode ficar com uma delas. -Completei o jogo inteiro em 12 horas. Garota favorita : Kaori. Se você não achar o mesmo, eu vou econtrá-lo e explicá-lo amavelmente que reconsidere. Nota 7 Kaoris de 10. Eu vou te salvar, Kaori, da próxima vez
nothing happens
OH MY GOD edit: i would kill to be able to play this game for the first time again. WOW.
How To Date A Magical Girl is a pretty mediocre visual novel at best and a pretty bad horror experience at worst. It's not atrociously bad by any means, but it's not great either. I'm gonna tell you why. Keep in mind this is all my opinion. I can see why others would like this game. (minimal spoilers ahead) The writing for this game is not stellar by any means, the protagonist is bland and so are the magical girls the game puts so much emphasis on. They're all stereotypical anime tropes and there's not much more to them other than a forced in dark backstory you only discover near the end of the game. There's not much substance to the fight scenes, nor is any of the world building that interesting. As for the horror, it relies entirely on gore and shock value. None of the main girls die until all of that shock value has worn off, so it doesn't hit hard enough for the player to really feel anything other than "oh shoot, I guess my waifu died." Yes, the gore is really well done, but it doesn't really do enough for someone to feel scared or even a little bit tense. The innocence doesn't last long enough for it to impact you enough like in Doki Doki Literature Club, which this game so desperately wants to be. My main pet peeve with the game (though this is probably mostly just a 'me' thing) is that even when choosing to play as a girl rather than a boy, the characters will still treat you like a male mc. One NPC even called me "a gentleman," but other than that, the game will refer to the player as gender neutrally as possible no matter which gender you pick. It mostly just makes me question why it even lets you pick at the beginning rather than just keeping your gender mostly a mystery. One thing I think the game did well in though, is the social sim and time management aspects. It's completely possible to max out your stats and experience everything with each of the girls in one play through, only ever needing you to reload a save once the Magical Girl festival comes around at the very end. But that's also when the game falls flat. The girl you accept will become your girlfriend and you only get one more date with them before the day ends, and it's literally just off screen sex. The game really falls flat at the end, and not just because of the girlfriend experience lasting less time than it takes for Kaori to call you her "esclave" for the hundredth time. The ending doesn't just suck, it's straight up dumb! (Ending spoilers, skip the next paragraph for conclusion.) The ending falls flat on so many levels. This is the part where nothing happens at school and then it just decides to finally kill your waifus in more gruesome ways than any of the previous background characters. Then it actually does what it was setting up for, it makes the mc go ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ insane. It all happens way too fast and it's just death after death and it just feels mind numbing, and not in the way it wants for it to feel. Then the game has the audacity to go "yeah... you were in a coma the whole time! Isn't that soooo crazy?" And it's just feels lazy. There are glitches throughout the whole game, making you think it's gonna go the 4th wall break route, but it didn't give that route enough lolipops, so it has to settle for the coma ending. I just don't like it. (TLDR) In conclusion, How To Date A Magical Girl is a game that tries to do what DDLC did and completely fall flat on it's face. It had potential to be amazing, but the lazy ending and boring writing squandered that. Overall, I give this game a 6/10. But also Kaori is best girl and I really like her so it's actually a 10/10
Originally, I was planning on giving it a reluctant positive review, or nothing. But then I thought more about the story it told.. and you know what... It's a damn good story, and I think it deserves more positive ratings than it has now Of course, "very positive" is by no means a bad rating, I just wish to make it clear that, yeah, the execution isn't perfect, like DDLC's was. Since comparing this game to DDLC seems to be the meta lol But, in my opinion, anyway, the actual story of this game is just as good as DDLC's. I'd go as far as to say better, but they're truly about different things and themes, so what's the point in comparing them? It's thought provoking, and the depth of the story will probably grow on you for awhile after experiencing it That being said One negative thing about it, is the gameplay really doesn't need to be there. It's clearly there just to give the illusion that you're playing a dating game, and it does ok at that, it makes you use your brain, and allocate it to tasks other than trying to predict what will happen next So, it does it's job But it doesn't need to be as tedious as it is, I don't think. Not the worst thing in the world, but the pacing for it is slightly off, and your stats will not necessarily impact the story in the ways you'd expect it would. That system is just there to keep you paying attention and actually engaging with the game
i wish magical girls were real but i guess they never will be, huh?
kısmi yetişkin içerikli anime hikaye oyunu aslında boş bi esprisi yok
finally figured out what the biggest most awful most tragic event in human history was It was the game's ending.
[h1]Cómo Enamorar a una Chica Mágica: una Guía Poco Práctica en el Arte de la Seducción Mística[/h1] [h2]Resumen[/h2] ¿Estás cansado de apps de citas mundanas? ¿Tinder ya te aburre? Pues, \How To Date A Magical Girl!\ trae un giro \encantador\ a tus convencionales simuladores de citas. En este intrépido título, la magia y el romance se mezclan de maneras que seguramente ni Merlín pudo haber previsto.

Cada chica tiene una personalidad distintiva, lo que hace cada partido de citas una aventura mágica nueva. Además, ¡quién no disfrutaría de un minijuego para preparar pociones amorosas? [h2]¿Hogwarts sin Presupuesto? Aspectos a Mejorar[/h2] Visualmente, el juego oscila entre encantador y un dibujo animado de bajo presupuesto. Las transiciones y algunas animaciones son más ásperas que un hechizo mal pronunciado. Además, la IA podría mejorarse significativamente, en ocasiones, parece que estás interactuando con una pared parlante más que con una futura novia bruja. La diversidad de escenarios también deja que desear, a veces sientes que estás atrapado en el peor episodio interminable de \Escuela de magia\.

Si encuentras este simulador de citas mágico a buen precio y puedes tolerar algunos gráficos rústicos y IA distraída, podrías encontrar algo de valor en este peculiar y encantador caos romántico. ¡Perfecto para el mago solitario buscando algo de compañía... aunque sea virtual!
It's a fun little visual novel with your standard dating game mechanics, if that's all you want then go for it. The ending is unfortunately disappointing but the rest of the game is enjoyable enough.
