Tokyo Debunker 12+

I absolutely ADORE the dynamics in this game. That’s one of the pros. You can get a favorite character, duo, trio, and or group the more you play, and the voice acting helps to maintain your attention. The VA’s did amazingly!! Proud of them and their hard-work! The idle aspect is also useful. Life gets too busy for its own good, so seeing small, but effective, material grinds make coming back all the more worth it.

Of course, there’s the debate with the AI backgrounds. Honestly, as long as the characters themselves weren’t used by AI, that’s tolerable. I suggest one day going back and maybe drawing the backgrounds out - if that’s remotely possible. Another thing is the financial gain. It’s pretty hard to grind the game around chapter 3, for me personally! It’s smooth sailing once you’ve completed the required Galaxy Express needed to continue - but when you’re stuck: you’re just stuck. That’s why theres a small gratefulness for the idle concept. It still HELPS despite that blockage.

Overall, a fun, investing story! I love the story and the complexities of the houses, the art (during the story) along with the Warding/Character cards. Amazing VA’s, and overall a silly, cat-filled experience.

Pros:
I love the balance between fun and dark in the story of the game. As someone who works, it's also nice that the gameplay is pretty automatic. I also love that it is cumulative. Every card matters instead of just a select top five like most other games. This makes leveling cards more relevant. There is also a good selection of morally good vs bad characters in the game which makes it more intriguing compared to games where everything is centered around your player. The story would still be good without the mc. Still, there is a good amount of player input into dialogue or quizzes. The story is the best part of the game! The BGM is also great, I love the remixed classical music. So much of this game is awesome, I could complement so much more than what I have.

Suggestions:
Please have an art gallery for the story art. It would also be good to have character bios with their full design somewhere in the gallery. I personally like to make fanart so more references would be more user friendly for fans like me! It would also be nice to be able to customize the profile picture of our player to the one houses or dress our avatar up.

I personally did not follow the original concept so I came into the game fresh and it’s much better than I expected especially bc the ads are verrrry misleading. As a gacha game I’ve found it very generous cuz there’s many ways to get free resources (achievements, daily bonuses, etc.) the selling point is really the story and voice acting, absolutely beyond phone game quality in my experience. In regards to gameplay it’s a deck builder with auto battle (same as Obey Me basically) but with a few easy rhythm games added in (another way to get gems to pull cards.) so far there’s not much in the way of an otome game, but there’s a plethora of hot guys and I’m going to give to benefit of doubt and hold out for some type of update to that in the future. It’s very much so an idle/tap game and imo done really well (so far!)
