Bad End Theater Review (Turtle_Buyer)
1. Intro
Game name: Bad End Theater
Genre: Visual novel/simulation
Brief overview: Play through many tragic tales with a unique cast
2. Gameplay
Mechanics/Controls: Visual novel mechanics (only a mouse is needed)
Difficulty: Super easy to pick up on, and a simple puzzle later on
3. Graphics & Sound
Visuals: Many lovely illustrations, goes scene by scene, slight animations towards the end of the game, and unique character designs with assigned colors to go along with them
Audio: Typical video games soundtrack, cute end credits song, and songs corresponding to events with each character
4. Story & Characters
Plot: You’re in Tragedy’s theater, play through the cast’s tragic tales, realizing there is truly no happy ending for the poor characters you’ve come to love so much… Maybe you can change that though…
Characters: Cute characters, each with their own distinct personalities and stories (The Hero, The Maiden, The Underling, The Overlord, Tragedy, and the player/Tragedy’s love)
5. Replay-ability & Longevity
Content: 41 endings, 4 personalities to unlock for each of the characters, short playtime (1-3 hours typically), and you’re able to “beat” the game before unlocking all the bad endings, but you won’t be able to unlock the truth about Tragedy’s story until you've beaten all bad endings
Updates: None
DLC: None
6. Pros & Cons
Strengths: Fun unlocking all the different endings, cute characters to learn about, nice if you’re looking for a shorter game, both visually and audibly pleasing, intriguing bigger story at play, nice resolution
Weaknesses: Not many reasons to re-play once you’ve beaten the game and unlocked all the endings, might be to easy or simple for players looking for some difficulty, certain endings might feel repetitive
7. Conclusion
Overall impression: Cute game with cute characters, nice visuals, good soundtrack, short playtime, not much reason to play after unlocking all endings, good pricing for the game
Recommendation: I do recommend the game and I enjoyed it very much. I think you would enjoy the game if you enjoy; unlocking endings, visual novels, shorter games, and the concept of good and bad endings
