This is probably the most mid Metroidvania title I have ever played. It's not bad by any means, but it's something I would only recommend to fans of Love Live and Metroidvanias and even then, only when it's on sale. I beat the game 100% in a little over 12 hours and that was with some item farming and combing through previous areas Combat and equipment are pretty basic but being able to summon members of Aqours for special attacks and unique abilities is pretty fun, everyone brings something new and it's easily the best part of the game. The game itself however is very, very easy as you can hold up to 99 of any given potion and money is plentiful, but you'll probably need those potions as some bosses can be a real pain Like I said, if you're a fan of Love Live and Metroidvanias it's a fun time, the game has great music, is visually pleasing and is obviously fully voiced, but overall is pretty eh. Still, I had my fun with it, would recommend

I adored this game so much. The music is pure bliss and so magical, and the sprite art is so adorable and sweet! Just getting to explore such a wonderful metroidvania as Yohane and all the Aqours girls was such a perfect experience to me. The gameplay is super fun and getting the upgrades while traversing the maze is way too much fun for me. It has really fun uses of its mechanics and characters and I really appreciated that, even though the game is a bit short and I wanted it to keep going. Still, when I finished, I was very satisfied and the ending got me emotional. This game truly feels like a love letter to Aqours as a whole and any Aqours fan would love this game for that. DADADADARKNESS!!!!!!!!!!!

Symphony of the Night... for Idol Fans Yohane the Parhelion -Blaze in the Deepblue- is a tie-in game for the Aqours spinoff anime. As someone who absolutely adores Aqours but hasn't yet watched the Yohane the Parhelion series, this was a surprisingly pleasant game to spend a few hours on. Being a tie-in game I went in with pretty low expectations, but those were very quickly surpassed after getting to play for a little bit. I'll make it clear that this is not a complex game, it won't replace the likes of Hollow Knight or Super Metroid. But it does have all the makings of a pretty good metroidvania- A diverse and interconnected map to epxlore with interesting biomes to visit, upgrades to find that change both how you traverse the map and engage in combat, and a large selection of weapons and equipment to tailor to whatever playstyle you like. Wrap that all up in some beautiful sprite work and background art and tie it with an excellent voice acting bow, and you have yourself a good experience. It's definitely not perfect though. I think the combat, while it has some options, is quite clunky and not that engaging. I think if the end lag on attacks was a bit shorter and maybe had/gained access to an i-frame dodge roll it would really go a long way to making it feel better to do. The game is also quite short with very little backtracking to utilize your abilities in previous areas outside of completing the sidequests to upgrade your friends' abilities. I definitely feel like I played for longer than 3 hours, but definitely less than 6. Without yapping too much, I'll go ahead and give some situational recommendations: -If you like Love Live and have watched the Aqours anime/Yohane the Parhelion, definitely give this a shot. It's more Aqours content with great voice acting and a cute little story. The sprites are also, as previously mentioned, very beautiful. -If you like Metroidvanias and want something small to sink your teeth into, this is pretty good! I might look up speedruns now that I've beaten the game, though there isn't a huge amount of depth or lore to fall into. It's just cute girls doing cute things. -If you don't fall into either of those camps, I'd still say this is a decent game though you might want to wait for a sale. It has merits but you're not going to get as much out of this as a Love Live fan would. If you check this out, I hope you have fun with it! I highly recommend finding the accessory that lets you regen Darkness Points, and pairing that with the Hanamaru Nuclear Bomb you unlock later. You won't be disappointed!

Yohane the I'm not writing that really long title is a pretty fun game, I wouldn't call it anything too special but it has a lot of great concepts, along with some real nice visuals, if you want an easy, slower paced game with an emphasis on reading enemy attacks than just straight up DPS racing and an interesting variety of weapons and variations of those weapons then pick it up, possibly on sale honestly dood. Okay big review time, so gameplay is like your typical metroidvania, you get items and special equipment as you fight through the dungeon, in this case new weapons come in two types, your main weapon that we'll call the friend weapon, these are unique in that bar the initial one, they are also used for puzzles and progression, the second type are craftable actual weapons which come in a few types and with some fancy visual changes at times too, accessories are also craftable and have some decent effects dood. Combat is very purposeful, attacks are mostly slow with certain exceptions and bar your initial friend weapon they all cost a meter to use, which can only be increased along with health using accessories, you don't level up either so it's all about those item drops! you also have items that frankly mitigates any actual difficulty and I did mess up a lot on some fights boss fights dood. XD Music is really nice and all the areas you go to are pretty nice to look at, it's nice to see more colourful areas in games like these, many these days seem to go for a dark, dank and oppressive look and that can work for some games but a little too many use that colour scheme these days so this was a pleasant surprise dood. But yeah it was a fun game with a decent variety of combat options, you aren't gonna be speeding through things but I think this can be a nice casual change of pace for many, thanks for reading and if ya get it I hope you enjoy dood ^-^7
