That's as great game as the first one is! There was only one chapter I felt like bored and dozzing off, but all others were totally worth the time. Def recommending it for those who loved Corpse Party Blood Covered. Even though its writing isn't that good as standalone VN, it's still working greatly as the continuation of favorite story that answers all the questions you could wonder about before (like, about Shishido-sensei, Suzumoto, Morishige, Kizami & his classmates, and others). So, don't hesitate and enjoy the game freely ^_^ Note for Dualshock players: despite the fact there's no official PS4 support, everything works fine thanks to Steam Input. I had here no problems with 100% completion.
This game is a great sequel. It gives some insight on the past of a few characters, and shows "what if" scenarios of what happens in the previous game (Corpse Party 2021). The new mechanics are interesting, but not too different from the previous. Said mechanics are similar to Ace Attorney, if you've played that. You're put in an area, made to investigate, and are able to look around or move somewhere else. The prologue to Blood Drive is a very nice decision to add at the end and left me really wanting the game, although it went on a bit too long for my liking. If you've played the first game and liked it, I absolutely recommend this one.
You did it again "Makoto" KEDOUIN, you absolute madlad, this one is especially great, I prefered the gameply element of this one, and the bigger focus on story telling, each chapters was interesting in its own right, and the latest one was a perfect segway into future entries, im HOOKED. The whole damnatio memori concept is the grweatest addition you could have made, and you deserve a kiss on the forehead for this magnum opus. Also let me make this clear, while "Satoshi" may not be portrayed in the best ;ogjt, he is still the GOAT ("Legendary Survivor") and I am DISAPPOITNED that there wasnt any follow up on that, but I know what you think MAKOTO (Kedouin), you're keeping us on our toes, youre a big maaaan, alright ill bite you beautiful man The morishige chapter was beautiful,, great music all voer but especially this chapter. I give this game 5 bags of popcorn, and I'll throw in a little scissor, to cut the tongye of the Principal Yanagihori (F*ck that g*y!) Thank you bro cya for newer adventures in BIRTHDAY BASH!!!!1!!
10/10 Corpse Party: Book Of Shadows is the second in the Corpse Party series. Masterpiece horror RPG visual novel. Corpse Party: Book Of Shadows may be a second in the series but it does amazingly as a standalone story, although the player should definitely finish Corpse Party prior to playing. It’s a 3D story rich horror RPG visual novel, unlike the first game which leans more heavily towards vanilla RPG. Corpse Party: Book Of Shadows primarily focuses on the classmates trying to escape Heavenly Host Elementary School. This installation focuses more heavily on the visual novel aspect but is an equal in terms of mood setting via music, words, and sound. The art is fantastic and the things the classmates go through is true nightmare fuel. Multiple endings and not for the faint of heart. I encountered no bugs while playing. It took me ~18 hours to complete the game with all achievements. No cards but Steam Point Shop items are available! Like the first title, there’s fanservice that feels wrong to read considering the age of the characters. Pros [*] Central to the story. A lot of context was added. [*] Fantastic story. [*] Fantastic worldbuilding. [*] Likeable characters. [*] Extremely memorable. [*] Great writing. [*] Great art. [*] Eerie music and sound effects. [*] Multiple endings. [*] Genuinely scary. [*] Encountered no bugs while playing. [*] Achievements are achievable. [*] Steam Point Shop items are available. Cons [*] Really weird fan service. A lot of the criticism I read revolved around how Corpse Party: Book of Shadows leans more towards visual novel than RPG, which is a massive difference compared to the original Corpse Party but I loved reading it as a visual novel. I personally think it added to the dread I felt while playing through it.
