I really wish I could praise this game beyond it's visuals. It's hailed as a horror VN classic and although amazing in concept it's just dull, and even downright pedophilic towards the titular character.

Every time this game starts to get good, it fucks itself over with a creepy, annoying protagonist and how it creeps so repetitively on the character who is a young girl.

The real horror of this game is the part that's not even meant to be horror.

This is basically weird fetish material.


This game took everything that made Embodiment of Scarlet Devil an addicting and entertaining game, and refined it to near perfection.

The features introduced such as shift hitbox, varying collection lines, no. of lives and bombs, ect for different characters, and boss position followed at the bottom of the screen have become series staples.

Got this game as a gift from a friend for Christmas, and loved every second of it.

A fun, cute, and hilarious indie title that only takes a few hours to 100%.

Thanks Laura ♡

Huge day for gay people

Jokes aside, as much as I love this game, it's aged poorly in many aspects and can be a total slog to get through. I wouldn't recommend it unless you're a tried and true RPG fan and willing so sit through its bullshit, but the reward is great characters, the best persona girl, and an insane ass story that's so memorable.

One of the funniest, most unique games Ive ever played. A peak example of the PS2 Innova era.

judgement boy haters can leave

This game changed my life.
I know that's a statement with alot of weight, but it's touched me deeply and helped me understand myself and navigate the scary feelings about mortality we all have.

It's heartfelt, aesthetically pleasing, and charming from end to start. The main cast is all lovely, my favorites being Vivi, Zidane, and Steiner. I loved every member and their storylines (except Amaranth) and although Freya, Quinoa, and Eiko felt lackluster at times, I still really enjoyed having them in the party.

Dagger and Zidane's romance is oh so beautiful, the ending made me tear up. it's only rivaled by Final Fantasy X's Tidus and T
Yuna.

Overall, I cannot stress enough my love for Final Fantasy IX. It's a game I turn to for comfort, it's a place to call home.

Just plain, cute, timeless fun.
Great gameplay, nice graphics, catchy soundtrack, and just overall great experience for all ages and skill levels.

A truly universal game in my opinion.
