What players say
One of my favorite game in the series now. Great pacing and the gameplay is the best in Kiseki so far. I am kneeling to C. My MC(Kevin still my top 1 though)
didnt know it was possible for a game for me to like cold steel 4s ending but hajimari proved me wrong
The nerve of the publisher to sell this game at a cost of a AAA game, no regional pricing or whatsoever. And if your microwave is broken, just play this game. It's a perfect alternative to microwave. In fact, I highly recommend the game for toasting anything. I had never played any game where it increases the temp of the cpu to a point of 70c, not even 60c. My cpu temp only hovers around 50c at most on any game...
