Electronic Gaming MonthlyWhile intriguing, the game is never captivating. [June 2007, p.94]
-
The movement controls are very slippery and awkward, you spend most of your time in mundane conversation trees and playing the same mini-games relentlessly, and the reward at the end of the year isn't particularly satisfying.
-
The real problem with Brooktown, though, is that your progress seems totally scripted, requiring no actual effort or skill.
-
Less an adolescent social simulation and more a lesson in pandering, Brooktown High fails to make the grade.
-
It's disappointing, it really is.
-
netjakI really wanted to like you, Brooktown. I mean, like like. But the problem of shallow, unrealistic gameplay and an unreasonable time limit scheme just is too overbearing.
-
Brooktown High is poor by design and though the concept running it may be admirable the execution is not. Bad conversation, lackluster mini-games, pointless statistics, and a below average presentation don't necessarily help the dating sim genre make headway in America.
-
Playing Brooktown High, you can't really ever lose, but with so little content to explore and so little reward, you can't really win either.
-
The whole concept of Brooktown High is appealing, but what the developer Backbone Entertainment has done is given us the most boring and lifeless look at high school life imaginable.
-
With better pacing, some deeper activities to partake in and a more finely tuned interaction system Brooktown High could have been a lot of fun.
