Tokyo Debunker 12+

Pros:
I love the balance between fun and dark in the story of the game. As someone who works, it's also nice that the gameplay is pretty automatic. I also love that it is cumulative. Every card matters instead of just a select top five like most other games. This makes leveling cards more relevant. There is also a good selection of morally good vs bad characters in the game which makes it more intriguing compared to games where everything is centered around your player. The story would still be good without the mc. Still, there is a good amount of player input into dialogue or quizzes. The story is the best part of the game! The BGM is also great, I love the remixed classical music. So much of this game is awesome, I could complement so much more than what I have.

Suggestions:
Please have an art gallery for the story art. It would also be good to have character bios with their full design somewhere in the gallery. I personally like to make fanart so more references would be more user friendly for fans like me! It would also be nice to be able to customize the profile picture of our player to the one houses or dress our avatar up.

I personally did not follow the original concept so I came into the game fresh and it’s much better than I expected especially bc the ads are verrrry misleading. As a gacha game I’ve found it very generous cuz there’s many ways to get free resources (achievements, daily bonuses, etc.) the selling point is really the story and voice acting, absolutely beyond phone game quality in my experience. In regards to gameplay it’s a deck builder with auto battle (same as Obey Me basically) but with a few easy rhythm games added in (another way to get gems to pull cards.) so far there’s not much in the way of an otome game, but there’s a plethora of hot guys and I’m going to give to benefit of doubt and hold out for some type of update to that in the future. It’s very much so an idle/tap game and imo done really well (so far!)

This game has a positive qualities, but there are some large frustrations holding it back. First, the drop rates are terrible in practice because warding cards and character cards are mixed together. For example, I just did a 10 pull hoping for one of the time limited card and got NINE warding cards, and most were just R quality. There should be a limit to the number of warding cards that can be pulled, because this is absolutely maddening.

Second, you should not have to pay diamonds for the profile pictures when you already have to be lucky to pull the card to even get the option to buy the pic. It’s especially crazy that the SSR profile pictures cost more than a 10 pull. That’s a straight up scam. Just give us the profile pic if we manage to pull the card, that’s what every other gacha game I’ve played does.

Things like this make the game feel frustratingly greedy. It’s the sort of thing that turns me off of playing.
