    It would be one thing if, like Gal*Gun or Monster Monpiece, the titillation was cover for a game that was secretly also a lot of fun. Instead, what you have here is titillation to cover up the fact the game isn’t even all that enjoyable, which just makes it kind of sad.

    A bog-standard dungeon crawler with added boobies, Party Favors offers forgettable titillation but almost no actual substance.

If you arent an RPG, Ecchi, Anime, fan. this game may not be for you. This game was heavily censored down, but from a mechanical standpoint it is much more enjoyable than the original. This one has the same premise but a better story, better soundtrack, and better characters. The dungeon crawling has the same aspects but combat feels much more intuitive, and the motivation scenes really give this game its rating. a high pick for those looking to spice things up in the dungeon Full Review »

    Wow! This was fun! Defs an upgrade in art from the first game! {which I played in like 2014? I dont actually know... its been a few years.Wow! This was fun! Defs an upgrade in art from the first game! {which I played in like 2014? I dont actually know... its been a few years. possibly even 8? Thats 2022 - 2014. Its just math.} But man! these girls be BUSSIN! {I dunno know what that means, but a guy at my work said that about my chicken fried rice once, and it sounds right right to use it here? I dunno... also it was not "bussin" chicken fried rice. Ill have you know, I only swallowed one bite. I threw the rest away, cuz it wasnt very 'bussin'} ANYWAYS! The RPG elements were great! The gameplay and story are very solid! Perhaps an improvement on Criminal Girls 1? But like I said its been like 8 years {or so}. some of the bosses were kinda awful. I wish they put more work into them besides just doing massive debuffs, but hey, Im just a guy. But if I worked as a game dev, Im sure this game woulda been a 10/10, cuz im pretty good ya know? Operation Ball was the best move imo. Not cuz of damage, I just liked how it sounded. so much so that I made a Twitch redeem out of it!! {Id plug my twitch here, but that feels irrelevant, since this is a review, and not a place to put myself out there. I wanna earn my stripes the right way! Not through Metacritic. Im sure you understand. BUT if you wanna check me out, find me! If you do, Ill give you a hi five through my webcam cuz thats the most I can afford right now, since I only work like 5 hours a week.} Overall, This is a gem on the Vita! Find it, buy it at any cost {unless you work like 5 hours a week like me, then borrow it from a friend like I did.} and play it! You wont regret it! 8/10, 2nd best Vita game ive played thus far! {Check out my twitch channel cuz Ill eventually play my favorite Vita game on there! I wont say the name of it here since my chat might see and I want it to be a surprise. But ill totally play it someday!} Full Review »
