Kemono Friends: Kingdom 9+

First off, the UI is amazing, I'm pretty sure I get like 60 fps? Though, if you do want to conserve battery, there are options for that (pretty accessible).
A lot of gacha games that feature a lot of different game modes (like tower, raid, main story, etc) gets really clouded and messy sometimes on the main screen, but for this game, it isn't messy and I don't seem to mind it. Every game mode in this game has a purpose, rather than having useless game modes for the sake of looking like a game that you can do a lot in.
The story is thorough as well and I LOVE THAT I CAN SKIP DIALOGUE SCENES AND HAVE A SUMMARY OF IT so I don't have to miss out on the story!! Never knew I needed that, but now I know I do.
Characters are easy to level up but I assume in later levels it gets harder for the challenge. Characters are also cute, they all have their own personality and voices.

Downloaded this game for a road trip, genuinely a fun game. It starts feeling underwhelming since the initial mechanics are “level character, throw at enemy, win” but as you keep playing, new mechanics open up and the catapult system goes from a novelty to a genuinely fun mechanics. The rates are extremely generous and I’ve set my eyes on a banner and got both the advertised ssr with a duplicate within 160 F2P rolls from the story mode. Love this gameplay, love the art, love the UI, love the IP, and my favorite part is the voiced dialogue. Some things are still extremely janky, and the English dialogue has that translator funk, but genuinely enjoyable experience overall.

TLDR: above average gacha, has the generosity of azur lane and the nerdy teambuilding we all love.

Tired of the same old turn based steel your money gacha ? Tired of not feeling attached to the characters ? Tired of stories you just wanna skip ? We’ll try kemono friends then ! I have known about kemono just for a bit due to kemoV tubers but didn’t even know about this game… super super fun and cute. The UI is also so colorful and fun plus we are getting showered w pulls. The rates also are decent. I think small details like having the real animal photos attached in unit info or summons is also a beautifully fun touch. Thank you devs !! I hope the game does well because I would love to see it stay getting support ‘ updates <3. Who knows maybe even fun crossovers ?!?

Only note so far would be localization (it’s not huge deal or terrible) but even after selecting male I am being referred to as her in the story. It’s no biggie but just left that there in case it slid by y’all.
