    If you do not like visual novels much then this is just waste of time, otherwise this is readable, but nothing special. XBLAZE's graphic is really good, main idea of plot is not bad, quite typical for fantasy genre tho. Unfortunately protagonist is really weak, the main plot is really slow and filled with many stupid dialogues, the new TOi system is just annoying more than anything.If you do not like visual novels much then this is just waste of time, otherwise this is readable, but nothing special.

Overall it is not completely bad, but it is not good either. I hope we will get more good novels for west Vita, because currently there is nothing much to choose from.

    All in all, you're left with a visually appealing visual novel that doesn't really have a strong enough protagonist to carry it.

    XBlaze - Code: Embryo isn't the most offensive visual novel I've ever played, but it's ultimately dragged down by a lackluster story, dull characters, and the infuriating TOi system.

    If you’re a fan off the BlazBlue series, pick up a copy. If not, then you may want to avoid it unless a visual novel is exactly the experience you’re looking for.
