Rear Pheles ~Red of Another~ - Review


リア フェレス ~レッド オブ アナザー~
Game: [Rear Pheles ~Red of Another~ ]
Genre: Otome Visual Novel.
Developer/Publisher: Matatabi
Platform: PS Vita.
Release date: 2015-08-27


TL;DR
I liked this otomege for what its worth, its story is nothing special but if you
can get passed the long loading and minigame its quite fun, like a game should be.
The higher the difficulty the bigger the maps get and Pro is literally a fricking maze with
too many locked doors. Easy and Normal are doable and Hard is okay... I guess.
The difficulty trophies are BS though, you have to like sit through the common route of
Blanc,Toujou and Itsuki's(maybe Ayame sorry I forgot) on EVERY difficulty and there are four.
Thankfully both the escape and hunting minigames during the actual route
can be done through chapter select, still a pain to platinum 
and there are only a few who managed to do it, I raged quit twice but when I came
back I was one minigame away from completing pro difficulty(lmao) so I only had Hard left.
 I can't really recommend this game... story's average if anything.

 Pro's
 - Semi-interesting story based on red riding hood.
- Most guys are likeable.
- Romance was decent but kind of cringy in some route.
- Guys are Yandere but this is mostly reserved for bad ends, though some of it
 can be seen during normal play, atleast to me the best ends were satisfying.

 Cons
- Heroine is sorta stupid.
- Game is rather short.
- Minigame is a bit unforgivable, aka its difficult at first because no good tutorial.
- Long loading for minigame.
- Lag during minigame.
- BGM while some can be creepy like the one during the minigame but overall its forgettable.
 Btw the BGM during the minigame doesn't loop after 30 sec it just ends.
 
More rambling and possible spoilers after the jump.
