    Well I like visual novels, I'm huge fan Steins;Gate, so I was really excited to try another VN with such great reception from critics and users.
    And I am in shock. Well, lets start with what I liked - artwork is really awesome. The steampunk england is nice. Well, thats about all of the good things I found in this game.

    Why this got so high scores is far beyond my imagination. Cast of characters are plain idiotic. I like fantasy, but come on! We got 2 female characters, one of them is protagonist which is NOT attractive, despite of that fact it seems every male in this universe is in love with her and willing to give their life for her. Not very likely. And when im on the male cast - they are a bunch of heroes, every single one of them is super strong genius, and the fact that they are far from being manly but plain gay looking isn't helping either. Damn knights on white horses. Special place among the cast has Nemo, Van Helsing and sisi = WTF are those.. things? Was they supposed to be funny? Cute? Dog with a hat and red heart drawn on its butt? Main bad guy who is some bizzare idiot-genius with so lame excuse to be bad in the first place? Come on..
    Van Helsing is portraited as almost inhuman martial artist and godlike RAMBO/COMMANDO but looks just like your average nerd - really thats something i'd love to see in real life.
    The story itself is also just way to absurd for a mature human to bare. Who the hell is this thing adressed to? Who in their right mind gave those almost perfect scores and for what reason/purpose? Are You all 13 year old girls or what? I dont believe that any sane, heterosexual male would have fun with this product.
    Damn You all to seven hells, give me back my time spend with this... PLEASE, SAVE YOUR TIME AND DONT BUY THIS IF YOU ARE NOT 13 YEAR OLD GIRL / GAY / RETARDED. Otherwise get it and rate it with another 10/10 ;P

    And yes, I got to admit that the first part of the game was a bit more interesting, but I got to give a score for the whole product, and it just sucks big time.    … Expand

    I liked this game at first but the more i thought about it, the less and less appealing it became. There are more deus ex machinas in this game than there are raindrops that fall in a rainforest; Tension is almost always alleviated straight away from some miraculous event that occurs at the last second. And the characters are annoyingly smitten with the MC straight away - the romances justI liked this game at first but the more i thought about it, the less and less appealing it became. There are more deus ex machinas in this game than there are raindrops that fall in a rainforest; Tension is almost always alleviated straight away from some miraculous event that occurs at the last second. And the characters are annoyingly smitten with the MC straight away - the romances just dont feel deserved in any way and especially in a certain character's route where the MC and him have the same chemistry of water mixed with oil. The art is the only redeeming factor.… Expand

    If you enjoy visual novels, then I can highly recommend Code: Realize. There's a delightful cast of characters to meet, an interesting story to experience and beautiful visuals to take in. The plot rushes over details that could use better explanation, but there are plenty of twists and turns to keep things interesting. The dialogue is well written and I enjoyed my time with it from beginning to end. Even if you normally shy away from an otome game, do yourself a favour and pick this one up.

    Code: Realize Guardian of Rebirth is a beautiful "otome" visual novel, well written and fun to read.

    It may be a simple thing - but as Code: Realize shows, simple can really work.
