  I really wish I could recommend it and more than anything, I wished I could make this game work, because it just looks so damn cute and is so damn interesting. Alas, there are problems that simply makes the game from fun to frustrating. First, this is one of those games where the art is ruined by censorship, simply disappointing. There is a mod to uncensor and a few other mods to improve some things, since as it turns out, the PC port is kind of a mess to top it all off. Applying the mods is outright confusing, once you do, its honestly not even really worth it, since as far as I understood, when it comes to the uncensor mod, what it does is uncensor the censoring of nipples, meaning the game only offers softcore to begin with, while some of the girls' poses would offer amazing material for the female genitalia to be exposed. To my knowledge, you can not view back on dialogue, which is frustrating when you accidentally skip anything, especially since there is so much idle, perhaps even unnecessary, dialogue. Last but not least, the attack element of the fights in the game has a ~2, maybe even almost 3 second delay, adding extra frustration. It doesn't exactly have to be snappy, but like cmon ;p I feel like the one thing I would recommend, however, is to buy it when its on a 80% sale, for example for collection purposes.

  [h1]TLDR:[/h1] I am really enjoying this game, there is a mod to remove the pink smoke, linked below. I give the game 7/10, would have been higher without the censorship. If you are reading this, please sign the petition to stop censoring games on steam: https://www.change.org/p/nis-america-release-criminal-girls-2-party-favors-uncensored-on-steam These games rarely go on sale, so I decided to grab the title for $15. My hope is that with steam sales being higher, and people signing this petition, NISA may make extra efforts when bringing titles to steam. Steam doesn't block the censorship, its that they port it to the console first. PlayStation doesn't allow Adult Only ratings from the ESRB. So NISA makes the game able to be played on the PlayStation and then we get that port. Not the best scenario, but that's what we are dealing with. So sign the petition! [h1]Censorship:[/h1] Brief points on what they censored if you don't watch the below YouTube video: - Mini game has pink smoke around it (thing about this is, the mini game is what separates this from the other 300 million dungeon crawlers - Art work was redone by the original artist to add more panties and to remove nipples that can be seen through the clothing (indentations) YouTube link comparing the censorship (not my video): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8jZkevQNj3M [h1]Official Modding Thread:[/h1] http://steamcommunity.com/app/409850/discussions/0/142261352642554243/ - Confirmed Pink Smoke has been removed from mini game

  The animu tits draws me in. The boring af gameplay pulls me back to reality.

  Badly butchered by censorship. PS Vita *did* require rating, apparently Steam does not. Why offer such a port? Is winking agreement to community de-censor mods acceptable? On a broader and "philosophical" note, it is a *game* and if I want to spank pixels while hearing fake moans it is my choice, problem, issue, whatever. Same as when I decide to splatter the digital ground with the entrails of demons/soldiers/enemy players' avatars. Random note: game uses japanese control scheme, meaning O (or B) is YES and X (or A) is NO (reversed western scheme).

  I thought this game would be right up my alley. Sexy girls, pixel graphics. Very cute. Very Japanese. Howerever it's just too buggy. It's an awful port. My computer is amazing yet it chugs along at what much be less that half the speed it's supposed to run at and continues to freeze and make me loose progress. I have barely gotten into the game but I already know I can't play more. It's just too painfully broken. Too bad, I was looking forward to it.

  censored version with a strange pink fog and no voice and really really reeeeeeeeeeeally slow combat. To top up with, it's hard as hell since the first boss. Do I have to say more? Trust me. It isn't worth it.

  I really, really wanted to like this game but the extreme censorship and the overall quality of the port were just a bit too much for me to take. The gameplay itself is mostly functional but not so good that it can make me look past the other problems. One of the main appeals of the game is the interaction with your girls, which becomes very, very pointless when their voices are completely silenced during motivation scenes, which are supposed to provide much of the game's humor.

  I'm afraid I can't recommend this game. I wanted to like it, I really did, but the gameplay is just plain unenjoyable. The only things I can enjoy a little tiny bit are the conversations, but even those are as anime cliche as it gets. 7 hours in and the story is still flatter than Etna and Flonne. The infamous motivation minigame is neither fun nor interesting to look at, even with the uncensorship mod. There are multiple kinds of motivations where each is its own kind of minigame, one more tedious than the other. None of them has any appeal at all. The girl is in the background, the more you motive her the less clothes she has. But still, not even a nip. Teasers, nothing more. They do wear different clothings based on the kind of motivation, but even then they're still in the same pose, so pretty uninteresting. The rest of the game is dull. You walk around with blurry pixelated characters, the areas you walk around in are uncreative as all hell. There are small plains which are connected by paths, and sometimes there's a door, that's it. I've seen three environments in those 7 hours, and they're all following this idea. They do change the theme, but even those aren't interesting to look at. When walking you encounter random battles. Battles give exp and "CM" which is the currency in this game. With this currency you buy items, and... "motivate" the girls. The problem is that you barely get any CM, so motivation happens very rarely. But you need to motivate them in order for them to learn new skills, and those are mandatory. The enemy HP ramps up very quickly, and you constantly feel outleveled and just try to keep the girls alive somehow, even with skills. And guess what, that's also not fun. This actually frustrated me so much that I spent an hour or two cheating the girls up, giving them max stats. Combined with a cheat to prevent random encounters I can focus on running through those boring levels, trying to get through the story at least once. I really wouldn't bother playing this game without cheating, and it hurts me to say that. I really liked the basic premise but it's just too amateur. The game is just a giant fan service, it's all about the girls. You got your innocent one with big eyes and huge tits, you got your loli twins, you got shy psychic loli, you got big tits "I hate men" girl, and so on. Some of which you have no idea why they'd even be in this place, since this is a place for people who would've become criminals in the future. You can't tell me huge-tits-samurai-girl would ever become a criminal. After motivating the girls they tend to come to you with some wish. From what I've seen you can fulfill four wishes for each girl, but having them come up with that takes a long time. My only hopes are that after all wishes are fulfilled there's some special "treat". The only thing that differentiates this game from casual RPG maker games is the voice acting.
