Fantastic price for a fantastic game - physical copies aren't cheap (currently £15 at CeX).

I have it on disc, but for the convenience of not having to swap discs... should I? Am I that lazy?
Yes. :man:

<3<3<3 SUPERHOT FROM ME! I waited for soooooo long for this to drop from £39.99 back in the day and it was still that price when the X1 launched. Great find OP!

It's not a sale price apparently, it's just priced at £2.24 - they've possibly forgotten to trigger the sale on it or something :smiley:

Worth a punt? I know its only 2 quid but im not a fan of obscure jap games. Tried Persona because people rave about it but really disliked it.

This is both obscure and very, very Japanese, so, no, I wouldn't. It's a brutally challenging puzzle game interspersed with surreal cut scenes and talking sheep.

It's an absolutely genius, but terribly marketed game.
It's a pretty hardcore puzzle game (even easy is damn challenging and I confess I resorted to guides on a few levels), wrapped in a brilliant and surreal story about relationships, commitment and adultery. You will make all sorts of decisions that will ultimately direct the story and result in one of 9(?) outcomes.
I'd say more but I feel it would really ruin the game. I highly recommend it (if that wasn't obvious) and can't give this enough heat.

Cheers op. One I've been curious about since it came out. For £2-odd worth a punt.

I couldn't get into it but definitely worth having a go of at that price just to try something different

It's a brilliantly bizarre game but far from for everyone- think I paid something similar for my ps3 a few years back & its a steal at that price for me!

It was also on PS+ back in the day but I didn't play it at the time (even though I owned it) will pick up now I think.

Got this with PS plus back in the day, and it is certainly 100% not for everybody, i personally did not like it, very monotonous puzzles and the frustration factor is way off the scale, but i won't vote it down because some will like it and at that price they are getting a bargain.

No time to play it at the moment and I'm skeptical as to whether I'll enjoy it but at £2 it's worth a punt.

Very mature themes for an adult over relationships - loyalty, settling down and, well, cheating. Kick-ass addictive, octane puzzles too!

Really enjoyed this. Challenging puzzle game wrapped in a surprisingly mature story (don't play with your partner as it asks you some questions that will be pretty awkward).
Word of advice: this game is very difficult and it's made worse by the developers randomly deciding to rename the difficulties when it was translated. Hard mode in Japanese is called Normal in this, Normal is called easy etc. Don't be afraid to put the game in easy mode (there's no penalty and it's the real 'normal') as the game is still very challenging. It gives you a prompt to lower the difficulty if you die enough times anyway.

Finishing on 'Normal' remains one of my proudest gaming achievements. Bloody ridiculous.

Such a great game, I would love to play this again. Very difficult but totally worth it, was not expecting the ending I got lol.

I liked the story, but the goofy block puzzles got harder & harder, until a spike in difficulty just made it frustrating rather than difficult. Ended up giving up, but thankfully I got it via PS+ so it was free.

On the website it usually shows the retail price slashed out, this is just priced at £2.24 and isn't showing up with Deals with Gold for some reason

Couple of hours in..... Handheld style block puzzle bound together with slightly creepy anime dating sim. Time will tell.
