Famitsu’s thoughts on Toki to Towa
30 to 50 hours long, few roads in towns.
October 3, 2012 / 04:44 PM EDT / (@sqexgal)

Toki to Towa scored a 32 out of 40 in Famitsu this week. Here are the magazine’s impressions from the game, in handy bullet form:

  • Clear the game in 30 hours, over 50 hours completely.
  • The character’s are charming and the pleasant mood is nice.
  • As for the mood, preferences are likely to differ.
  • The anime character’s movements are fresh and original.
  • Consecutive battles with smaller mobs go on too long.
  • Noticed that there were few roads to explore in the towns.
  • The sense of movement in the anime was excellent.
  • Battles are fun with light tactics, but sometimes the strategic nature of it is tense.
  • It’s easy to read what attack the enemy will do and avoid it.
  • On the whole, the anime is monotonous and a bit sketchy.
  • Overall, it’s pretty decent, definitely give it a try.
  • It’s an ambitious title with the intention of challenging the graphics and system.
  • Fans of Masuda’s scenarios have to check it out.
  • You could say it’s Utopia for boys.

Thanks, Game Nyarth.

    This game will be like Valkyria Chronicles, underrated but valuable.

    “Utopia for boys”?
    So…….full of fanservice, huh?

    “You could say it’s Utopia for boys.”

    Good to know since fanservice ftw. But I’m still iffy on it in general…

  • Haku_Luvs_You

    Guess I’ll find out for myself in a week. Honestly can’t wait. I hope it lives up to my expectations. 

  • Hatsuaki

    Yeaaaah… I was definitely expecting this game to be full of fanservice. Thankfully, a big chunk of it seems to be included in the optional DLC, so I’m alright with this. 32 out of 40 is awesome, and I was expecting it to get a lower score, but today’s stream convinced me. Can’t wait until the game gets here~…

    “The sense of movement in the anime was excellent.”
    hee hee, he thinks this is an anime :3

    Glad to hear this. Much more hyped now~
    Sounds like it’ll have more fanservice than expected though.

    I wonder why they say the movements are so good. Personally, when I first saw gameplay footage of her running, I thought the movement was kind of clunky, honestly. She runs really… Awkward, lol.

       Game has improved since that first gameplay trailer. Subsequent gameplay trailers have looked better.

      • http://soundcloud.com/tet-chan TetsuyaHikari

        Hmmm… Has it really changed all THAT much though? I guess I’ll give some more trailers a view later then. I won’t have enough money for it anyway right now, even if I do change my mind, but when I first saw some gameplay… Something about the game just rubbed me the wrong way.

        I’ll see if my feelings about it have changed.

  • talesoffan

     Liking what I hear.   Can’;t wait to play this!  Good to hear the battles can be tense.

  • zakou

    I’ll be getting it day one, this is a unique game that combines anime in HD and a jrpg game, Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm 2 and this game are like the only games that are as good or better than anime on bluray.

    If there’s plenty of things that will equate this to being a boy’s utopia, they need only add some things to please the girl gamer. Some random topless dudes would go a long way ;D

    And for me personally, the same topless dudes rolling around together *sighs wistfully*

    • KurisuMakise

      Wrong game for us new_tradition, totally the wrong game.

      I’m a guy here, but I agree with you. They should have content for the girl fans as well.

      Then it will just be like the real world. Where else can I go for my fantasy utopia? :p
