Magus Girl -Chronicle 2D ACT- (in Japanese only)


  • Genre: Action / Adventure / Shooter
  • Maker: INSIDE SYSTEM
  • Price: 700 yen (tax included) *Trial version available
  • Release date: 2019/10/24


The "Magus Girl" series is a royal road action game where you fight bosses and become stronger. The first of these games has been remade with beautiful graphics. It is a stage-clearing type game that you can advance little by little, so it is easy to play and recommended.



In the stage selection, you can choose the boss stage you want to challenge. If you find a stage too difficult, you can start from other stages. The game also allows you to strengthen your character, which is great for users who are not good at action games. You can also change the difficulty level at any time to make the game easier to play.



Traps and enemies await you in each stage. Normal attack is a shot to defeat enemies and advance. The game is based on the life point system, and when your heart reaches 0, you have to start over from the middle point. The game is over when the remaining units are reduced to zero. You can challenge yourself by clearing the given tasks to reveal extra images. Let's challenge the royal action game!


Talking! Hollyjo! Gekikaku ~Anna Horisky: Why don't you save the universe?


  • Genre: Shooting / Action
  • Maker: Crow's Play Company
  • Price: 1,200 yen (tax included) *Trial version available
  • Release date: 8/22/2019


The title "Gekibori" makes you think it's a game about digging through the dirt, but when you play it, you'll find it's a side-scrolling shooting game. Anyway, it talks, talks, talks. But there is an element of digging as well.



You shoot down the oncoming enemies and retrieve the ore. The enemy characters are also cute, which matches the pop image of the game. The game is a classic shooter, but it is hot that the game provides voice-activated live commentary on what is happening during play! I wonder how many voices are recorded in the game.



You can play the entire stage, but if you run out of fuel, it's game over. Mined ore can be converted into money. You can earn money and power up your equipment to make it easier to move on. This title is recommended for beginners of shooting games. If you are interested, try playing it.


Cruise Grand Chronicles


  • Genre: Simulation / Puzzle / Adventure / Table
  • Maker: Kairosoft
  • Price: 1,200 yen (tax included) *Trial version available
  • Release date: 7/18/2019


"/>

This is a game about managing a luxury cruise ship by Kairosoft, which has released many management simulation games. Develop your own ship little by little, and eventually aim for a ship that can entertain many guests.



What surprised me when I played the game is that the game starts from the point where you leave the port. You may think ...... that you have not placed any facilities yet, but you don't need to worry. You can place facilities while the ship is sailing. By the way, since there are no passengers on board while the ship is departing, this game makes it fun to think about how the passengers will spend their time before the next port.



First, let's develop the ship's interior little by little. You can place vending machines, stores, and places to play, not to mention guest rooms. A feature of Kairosoft games is that it is easy to see where customers will spend their money. You can try and error how to place the facilities. Give your customers the best "hospitality" with your own hands.


Dodgeball at your desk


  • Genre : Sports / Training / Learning / Table
  • Manufacturer: SAT-BOX
  • Price: 850 yen (tax included) *Trial version available
  • Release date: 7/25/2019


Dodgeball from the "Sports Games Played on Desks" series. With simple rules that allow you to throw the ball at your opponent and hit them, many people have probably enjoyed this game. You can play this sport anytime on the Nintendo DS.



The game is very easy to play! Use the same buttons to throw the ball or catch the ball. A meter appears when you throw the ball, and depending on the timing, you can make it into a pass or a shot. When the super shot gauge in the lower left corner accumulates, you can see .......



You can throw a shot with a speed that is an order of magnitude faster than a normal shot. Can you catch such a thing? ...... It is a very decisive technique. By the way, where is the "desk" element? You may feel that the venue itself is a desk!　Let's all play dodgeball, which can be easily enjoyed with a switch! (New Samurai)
