Tokyo Babel

This visual novel keeps the reader interested in the individual routes by sharing bits and pieces of the over-all mystery, which is only truly solved at the final heroine's route. I found it a generally enjoyable experience, though some characters aren't a fleshed out as I they had the potential for. On the other hand, those are the characters that had less screen time and importance to the plot.

[h1] 前言 [/h1] ——告诉我，你为什么要活下去 [h1] 游戏介绍 [/h1] 《Tokyo Babel（东京巴别塔）》是一款由propeller制作，MangaGamer发行的以“拯救”，“希望”为主题的日系AVG游戏。在这个世界里，所有的一切都已经全部枯萎，剩下了天使与恶魔在这里集结，准备与人类一起巡礼那七层的巴别塔，开启天国之门，但是计划失败了，巡礼者占领了巴别塔，并打算毁灭一切，这时，出现了一名少年，他将以巡礼巴别塔为目标，寻求他自己答案。 [h1] 时而劲爆，时而唯美的画风 [/h1] 这款游戏的战斗的场景可以说十分的多，所以游戏就对打斗的画面制作很是上心，而且也十分的细致，画面的切换频率也是异常的高，有时静态的背景加上动态的粒子可以很好的营造游戏战斗的壮观景象，再加上画面的不停的转换，让玩家可以很好的战斗过程中画面的劲爆感，当然除了战斗还有平日中的日常剧情，游戏对日常的剧情的画面的展现也是很认真，萌图与正常图的相互组合也让游戏的剧情更加欢快愉悦，而且也可以让玩家更好的了解到每一人的性格特点。立绘方面还算很不错，在现在看起来还是很标致的作画。 [h1] 游戏的CV阵容很是强大，而且音乐也很应景 [/h1] 这款游戏的CV阵容是十分强大的，比如花泽香菜，神谷浩史，沢城美雪，这些都是很知名的声优，在他们的演绎之下，这款游戏的人物也更加生动活泼，充满个性，声线也是充满磁性，是很好的听觉享受，游戏的背景音乐也是相得益彰，十分应景，在不同的剧情之下，渲染出了不同的气氛，也让玩家在进行游戏的时候有着更好的代入感，游戏刚开始的OP也是劲爆感十足，给剧情开了一个好头。 [h1] 游戏的剧情很是刺激，还很有思考性 [/h1] 在男主Setsuna带领之下，一行人突破了各种各样的困难，并且不远万里来到了“主”的面前，请求“主”的饶恕，但那之前，他们打败了每一层的“Master”（话说这个怎么感觉有点像Fate的既视感），不得不说战斗的场景也很不错，很刺激，给了我们很好的视觉盛宴，而且让我感觉男主真的很帅，很勇敢，而且我还能知道每一个人物存在的意义，也就是他们到底为了什么在生存，这一点给我们带来了一定的思考性，随着剧情的推进，我们也就离这个世界的真相越来越近，在不同的线路中有着不同的探索，但是不管探索的是对明天的呼唤，还是一生的追求，亦或是自身的意义，我认为只要敢于探索，就一定会有自己独有的答案。 [h1] 游戏的优点 [/h1] +质量好且数量多的CG +知名CV的强大阵容 +剧情的强大吸引力 +在不同的路线之中那不同的探索 [h1] 游戏总结 [/h1] 总而言之，这款游戏的质量还是相当不错，并且其画面与音乐，还有CV的强大为游戏增光了不少，希望可以有更多人发现这款游戏。 评分：8/10 [quote=汉化游戏] 游玩百态，将游玩心得用汉语化作玩家的指明灯，(๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧ [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/34621919/] 点击这里关注汉化游戏~[/url] [/quote]

Worth it for the prologue alone. Damn that was a fine piece of storytelling.

If you're interested in reviews like these for VNs, check out my curator page: [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/35651135/] Val's Visual Novels, Anime & Hentai [/url] [u][h1]Style[/h1][/u] [u]Art[/u] Characters and art style aren't anything special, but each character is easy to tell apart and distinctive, which is a big plus. [u]Eroge Content[/u] No eroge content in this game. [u][h1]Music and sound[/h1][/u] Standard VN fare, with nothing too memorable. [u][h1]Story[/h1][/u] [u]Basics[/u] Tokyo Babel plays a bit like a shonen action anime compressed into a VN. They even have kinda action animated fight scenes thrown in. The story, characters and setting are quirky, taking various inspirations from myth and religion, to explore the aftermath of a world where God has disappeared, leaving his creations to try and figure out what happened. [u]Characters[/u] Well written, unique, and there's no faceless protagonist, all the characters have their own background and roles to play. The interaction between them can be a bit slapstick at times, but it's well translated, so you kinda still get the jokes. [u]Plot[/u] As mentioned above, God has disappeared, leaving angels, demons and whoever's left to try and figure out what happened in the ruins of a world remaining. [u][h1]Gameplay[/h1][/u] There's quite a few routes, but very few actual choices, and the choices are the type that don't really tell you what you're choosing for, which is one of my pet hates. [u]Replayability[/u] There are 3 - 4 character endings, and both good and bad endings for them. [u][h1]Summary[/h1][/u] Tokyo Babel is an interesting experience. It tries to have a bit of an edgy, unique story, but goes by too fast to do much world building. The characters are quirky and interesting, but same with the world, the game goes by pretty fast so a lot of what you see of them are more their interactions with each other which tend to be more humourous and filled with one liner non-sequiturs. The humour is interesting, slapstick peppered with random game and pop culture references, so you might enjoy it if you're into that. Overall, worth a play, you might enjoy it, what with the humour, unique story and characters, but you'll definitely also notice the flaws if you bother looking.

For starters, this is a long game. 3 routes and 6 different endings that took me almost 40 hours. The game revolves around: - The supernatural. Understood as Holy Bible references. There's lots of angels and demons from religious tradition starring. - Spectacular battles with all kinds of legendary weapons and special powers. I compared it to X/1999 and with good reason. Maybe the likes of Bleach, but Tokyo Babel has better taste. - Romance. All the routes tell of the relationship between the protagonist and one of the 3 main girls. There's another one who deserved a route. - Humour. The powerful, supernatural beings are often presented in a comedic light, and get involved in ridiculous scenes. This is a much needed comedic relief. Usually the middle part of a route is ripe with such antics. - Drama. You were recruited to save the world and damn well you'll do it. Along the way, lots of humans, demons and angels will meet their end. The protag also carries quite a bit of luggage that you'll be presented with. What you do is go on a quest to get to Heaven and understand the secrets behind the "Divine Calamity" that cast out angels from Heaven and demons from Hell. But you already know that from the game synopsis, right? And is it a gripping journey? Yes it is.

Un'ottima visual novel con un bel cast di personaggi, un'ottima storia coinvolgente e interessante grazie anche ad una buona idea di fondo. Ottime performance da parte del cast giapponese e un comparto artistico ben fatto. Nel complesso un ottima esperienza che mi sento di consigliare, non è un capolavoro, ma fa il suo ottimo lavoro. N.B. Il gioco presenta tre route e consiglio caldamente di seguire l'ordine Angelo->Umano->Demone per motivi narrativi.

推了很久终于全end通关了，总体来说这作的剧情和音乐都非常出色，战斗演出也燃爆了，可以说除了没汉化以外没有任何缺点，另外Lilith线的Samael是真的可爱，虽然最喜欢的是Lilith，但Lilith线的Samael是真的可爱

Damn, what sad endings, but that is why I love this game. Highly Recommend This VN 10/10

One of the worse visual novels I've played recently. It was compelling enough that I was able to get to the end of a route, but the tonal dissonance between the humor and life and death drama was handled poorly. In addition, the aesthetics were pretty boring for what was supposed to be a story about angels and demons. If I wanted a VN about characters dressed in high school uniforms, there are plenty of those to pick from. Overall, it felt like a weird blend of SMT with Fate/stay night, but the VN combat was much less interesting than Fate and the pacing was bad. The situation was similar to an SMT game, but it lacked the good gameplay and meaningful player agency of that series. In addition, the enemies designs were significantly more boring than in SMT, and numerous characters were introduced then killed off without any meaningful effect on the plot such that they felt rather wasted, at least within the route I played. In addition, I reached a bad ending for the sin of choosing to comfort the route heroine during an existential crisis rather than be cruel to her. I don't find this acceptable. The best thing I can say about the VN is that I like the protagonist a lot. Sadly, I don't feel the rest of it really lived up to his potential.

Good
