Infinite Game Works Episode 0

I bought this game because for $10 I figured I could waste a couple of hours, but it turns out I just wasted $10. The red flag started when I first booted up the game and experienced no sound. So I went to the preferences section to test out the sound driver using the handy "Test" button, which did absolutely nothing, Ok, so I figured I'd play without sound, until the game started up and music began to play. Okaaaaay. I have sound now, great. So then I see some horrid 640x480 style windows with absurdly pixelated text. Once again, I look to up the resolution. Nope, there isn't any of that borthersome technical stuff to encuber THIS (horrid) game. Sigh, Ok. Now on to the actual game play, which is sporadic at best and inundated with an insane amount of mindless clicking of the "Work" (or repeat) button. Basically, it makes a slot machine look complicated in comparison. The actual story line seems to be a series of sporadic (at best) random encounters with two students whom you event...

If you enjoy clicking "repeat" hundreds of times over and over again until in a stupor you accidentally click through the rare plot then this game is for you! Also whoever had the idea to have the scroll bar be a 1 pixel wide green line should PROBABLY RAISE THEIR GAME DESIGN HAHA it's a joke that those of you who are foolish enough to buy this game will get.

As a word of warning for anyone who sees this, let me be clear. I will present what the game does correctly and what they don't. I will proceed to expand upon it in a short paragraph. If you're looking for a seething review that tells you what you already know - not to buy this - I'm sure you can find it elsewhere. First off, the story is good. It's not the best, but it's not the worst. It has a lot of potential; the execution is the problem. The only issue I see is a bunch of foreshadowing that's never really wrapped up, which would suggest a sequel, and I really hope this game doesn't get a sequel unless it's done MUCH better. The mechanics are also relatively good, which is to say, they work. There's nothing astounding about them, but, for the most part, they work. However, the fact that they don't have a "rest" button in the main choice menu and that they don't tell you that the lack of an actual "order" button in the "Order Advertisements and Game Copies" are both major oversigh...

Okay, first things first, i enjoyed the time i spent with the game and at a lower price i would reccomend it, however at it's current price, even with the 20 percent off i can't give a good reason to buy it. This game is a visual novel with Sim elements too it. You're playing a character who makes video games. The problem i find here is that the system is extremely shallow and a lot of things doesn't make all that much sense. The worst offence i find here is that there is basically no challenge to it at all. The story is mildly interesting, hinting at some bigger plot but is never really fleshed out so that at least i could see where it would go after the story concluded, this could possibly be explained in another route i didn't go through or to be explained in another episode. The character progression is really akward as it jumps ahead through the very few interactions you get with them and it gets hard to believe their progression from beginning to end. so while the characters a...

I don't even want to go back and look at this game for the "proper" sort of review. So I'll just say this. No. Don't touch. Save yourself some money. Or go to a movie in the theaters. Just don't. Leave. Why are you still reading? Get the FFFFFFF--- off of this page and never come back.

Well through sheer chance i saw this game at the greenlit-alrdy-in-shop-section and since i like the topic and VNs in general i decided to give it a try. I shall give you the pro and cons of this game and a Conclusion. Pro: - Interesting Characters - meaningfull choices in the Storypart - different endings - Refreshing topic - nice Art -insiderjokes about "Fate" Con: -only 2-3 musicpieces (really only 3 come to my mind, might be more but only 3 important ones) -"gameplay" gets too easy after your 2nd release -no way to forcefully met with the different characters (all in "seemingly" random events) -short (got through it in 2 and a half hour) -Only 3 real characters and a bunch of chat-"nerds" -I was kinds dissapointed with my own ending //spoiler:n0t b313ng ab13 t0 m337 4k1 and 7h3 c1iffh4ng3r 4b0u7 MC// So did i enjoy this game ? Yes i did, might gonna replay it. (also : GIVE M...

I'm afraid I couldn't get past the ridiculously long narrative, the terrible translation into English, and the fact that the frame sets were all over the place, and the text boxes unreadable. This was a huge disappointment to me and a complete and utter waste of my money.

Like other people already said: the story had potential, but it feels unfinished and the gameplay has issues. I found it very easy to do the tasks, there was no challenge at all. Also, the interaction part with the girls felt so shallow. I hope that the gameplay will improve in the next episodes, because really, there’s not so much to do even tho the characters are making a game. Oh, and the art style is quite pretty. But the BGM is annoying, I had to turn it off because it’s basically the same song over and over again… 3/10.

This game does have its faults and is quite repetitive, but I enjoyed it probably because I've played other games such as this. Eventually you get used to clicking repeat all the time and the system itself wasn't thought out very well, (seeing as how that pencil stick scroll ball needs to be pulled with the cursor) you will lvoe this game 100% [DO NOT] Buy! :D

I went for this game after playing the previous title by the same group. That one was rough around the edges, but enjoyable. I had hoped they had learned from it and polished this one up a bit. Unfortunately when I played this one the engine itself was flawed to unplayability- several times I was barraged with scenes from random points on the timeline with no idea what had supposedly happened in the meantime. What little of the gameplay and storyline I was able to get through sequentially was poorly planed. There is barely any emphasis on character interaction, and the game development that makes up the rest of the experience is tedious and uninteresting. I sincerely hope that their next project, this title's direct sequel, will 1) actually work, and 2) rebalance the various elements of gameplay. Since they are a fairly new team I will still cheer them on, but I recommend donating the money rather than buying this product.
