Takeshi and Hiroshi Reviews

A Mixed Bag, But Do Try It

TomboyTimon

I really loved the puppet animation, as well as the designs of the in-game characters and monsters. I like the unique goal of building stress for joy but avoiding defeat. The game does a poor job of providing a clear tutorial or learning curve, however. Pro Tip Don't forget to use the sword powerup to get rid of the skeletons at the final battle! Potential Story Spoilers Ahead The story ended up being a very mixed bag. Takeshi's relationship and what he does to make his little brother happy is beautiful. The way he treats his friend, Erika, is almost depressing. He depicts her as an intentionally annoying monster in his game, and he only apologizes to her in his own thoughts. This is never resolved, and somehow she doesn't acknowledge the "Erikagoyle", even when helping Tskeshi directly with the game. His relationship with his classmate, Yosuke, is much more well done. The reason for his initial feelings toward him seem justified, albeit immature. Takeshi and Yosuke seem to get a bit of romantic subtext, and I really liked that. What was really sad, though, is the ending. It's very cut and dry; nothing really happens. It's the shortest part of the story, and it leaves you feeling like it wasn't worth focusing on. In the end, I wanted more thrills.

Great game but...

It’s definitely my favorite Apple Arcade game, But there is a problem. When I fight an Erikagoyle, it can scream at least two times in a row and I can’t attack until it is over. Most of the time the warrior dies. I don’t know if it was made that way or what. Apart from that it is a great game.

Clay....really

Bad

Fix Chapter 7

I was enjoying the game, until chapter 7. That chapter is way too hard and reliant on RNG. It soured me on the whole experience... not to mention artificially doubled my playtime.

Bad at Titles read the review?

This game was honestly one of the best I’ve played by far. The story line, which made me tear up, plus the very well and simple to understand turn-based RPG game style brought this entire game to life. It was shorter than I’d hoped but then again, I say that to every game I love. Please make a continuation or something because I played this game from start to finish and over again over 5 hours-ish straight!
