#CRIMINAL GIRLS INVITE ONLY PSP#

While there are treasure chests and dead ends, itвЂ™s still just a straightforward wander through punctuated by plenty of random battles. To get in this situation, our protagonist is the required level of RPG-idiot.Дungeons are somewhat disappointing, as all follow the same basic structure and thereвЂ™s almost zero visual change between floors in each. Unfortunately for those who do have objections to the content, going through it is pivotal to progress. All require similar repeated actions on highlighted parts of the two touchscreens and, while it is something slightly different to do for a brief time, it adds nothing to the rest of the game.

The whole premise of the girls actually needing motivation appears to go out of the window within the first quarter of the game, and the mini-games themselves arenвЂ™t particularly engaging.

Ignoring any potential concerns about the general idea of the motivation sequences, which are going to vary heavily between readers, there are still significant issues with it. Ironically enough, in some cases the visual edits almost seem to make things more suggestive. Some small edits have had to be made to these sequences adding in a bit of extra fog in strategic areas and removing the moaning. In addition to the skill points, the more times a girl is motivated, the more fog is removed from the image of her in a rather suggestive pose wearing certain unlikely outfits seen exclusively in this part of the game. How these play out in the game is that points are earned towards learning a new skill depending on the playersвЂ™ performance in the relevant mini-game. One key part of Criminal Girls involves Motivation sequences, mini-games that see the player use implements - a whip, a shock probe, slime, and a feather - to supposedly make the girls obey orders in battle. Getting a desired attack option becomes much more reliant on luck than any other factor, and waiting for one to show up in battles where enemies have healing skills is especially annoying.Дo not question why this results in battle skills, down that road madness lies. The game is still good at providing guarding and healing options when necessary. The drawbacks to relinquishing control also become further apparent as more skills are learned by the girls. Unfortunately, while the system is mildly interesting for the early portions of the game, it quickly starts to become stale with very little variation in how battles play out. This doesnвЂ™t apply to enemies, who can all act per turn, although as most battles are against one to three opponents this isnвЂ™t much of a hindrance. Only one of these actions can be selected each turn, although players can swap out one character and use an item per round as well. Rather than giving players total control in turn-based battles, each of the four active party members shouts a suggestion for the turn. It does the job of giving players an indication of progress, but isnвЂ™t noteworthy in any way. The actual backstory to their sins isnвЂ™t revealed until late in the game and adds some character development, but is a bit of a stretch at times. The girls quite quickly become likeable enough and have decent chemistry, but thereвЂ™s not much to see here in terms of actual plot. As such they have been granted the opportunity for revival in the mortal world should they pass four trials, which involve beating up various monsters and bosses in four or five-floor dungeons.

These delinquent girls have died before their time and could actually do enough to earn a permanent place down below. While there are some interesting aspects to the game and it starts out well enough, things simply donвЂ™t hold up for the duration and the overall result is just a mediocre dungeon-crawler at best.Д¬riminal GirlsвЂ premise sees the player character starting a new job in Hell, tasked with looking after seven girls in the reformation program. This release managed to garner enough interest for an enhanced edition on Vita to appear in Japan in 2013, which has somewhat unexpectedly managed to make it over to the West courtesy of NIS America.
