Man, the game's simply awesome. I can't fully describe the imperession it had on me, though I completed only the first chapter.

It doesn't have any obvious disasvantages, and those which are not obvious are not actually cons.

Firstly, I should say about the visual component. The game is really beuatiful. Every detail is drawn exceptionally good and stylish. You are walking in the Blackwell Academy and you feel like you're in the real high school.
You're lying on a bed in Max' room and the whole room feels like a real hipster-geek girl room. Speaking about room, it concerns every room there is in the game. Impression you get once you enter the room is the same if you enter some guys room in real wolrd. You feel the individual style of this guy, you know that this room is his, not the room made by artist.
The locations of the world (parking lot, lighthouse) are awesome as well. Especially it's about the lighthouse and the first time you see the storm. That scene really scared me.

Secondly, the main character. Sometimes when you play visual novels or some other games where you have to make choice in order to push the plot further you can feel that the main charecter is a bit faceless. This effect is made in order to make it easier to asociate yourself with the main character so you want to play more. This game, it doesn't create sunch an effect, it simply doesn't need it. Max is so interesting as person that you want to see the life through her eyes, not yours. The same is also common to games from Grisaia franchise.
In you run-of-the-mill visual novel or something like you asociate the main character with you, in this game you do quite the opposite thing: you asociate yourself with the main char.

Finally, the audio. There is not musch I can say about it. The music and audio effects are picked up really good. The whole atmospere of the game is perfectly accompanied by the audio component.

To conclude the review I must say that there is no way to describe the whole impression I have about this game. If you're reading this because you don't know if it worth your time and money, you should know one tinhg: it is.

9 lighthouses out of 1

My-my, what can I say? It is splendid. Explosions, slow-motion, race, explosion, triple wreck, race, another explosion and split/second logo with the label "you wrecked yourself".

Game catches your attention with the first race after tutorial. I was preparing myself for pain and that I won't understand a damn thing but games mechanics are as simple as you wanted it to be. At the same time it is hard to start using it properly. You have learn timings and use them while you are drifting and some guy is trying to smash you.

Lots of action in life-or-death race made by Disney. What else you can ask about?

This game is really awesome, reminds me of Minecraft (when it was considered to be a good game). Here the pros and cons.

Pros:
+ Originality. Have you played farms/rancho simulators? But of course! Have you played pseudo-survival games? Yes, we did. Have you played a game about slimes? Well, yeah... So, where is the originality you will ask. Then answer me: have you all of the above in one game with fps-like interface? And I will answer: no, you did not.

+ Graphics. This is about the colorfullness of the game. It is really important in such games.

+ Everything is cute, nothing more to add.

+ Interesting system. At first you have to get slimes, then you learn how to feed them, and then those bastards are jumping out of their cages to get some food from the nearest garden. And the things are only getting started. Lots of features are everywhere.


Cons:

- WTF is going on? It was my question for the first 10 minutes of play. The game is really confusing at the start.

- Limitted world. Yeah, it is not very big, and you will soon find yourself doing nothing. It is about 6-7 hours of play, so it is hardly a disadvantage.


So it covers everything I had to say. Game is really cool, though the price is a bit high (waited for a discount).
8.75/10

All in all the game is pretty good. I found it interesting and funny to play, haven't finished it yet, though.

Pros:
+ Simple and easy to learn.
+ Beautiful in its own right. And nice girls, hell yeah.
+ Pleasant music.
+ Interesting plot and sometimes funny storytelling.
+ Good time-killer.
+ THE BEST ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ DEVELOPER EVER!!!

Cons:
- Interface is slow and unfriendly.
- Translations are awful.

Also i have to mention the enourmous amount of achievments. "So what?" - you will say. The point is, they are pretty easy to get. I cannot say it is good or bad, it's just the way it is.

Conclusion: the game is good, has pleasant atmosphere, it is interesting to play. That's all. Thank you.

Beautiful game full of action plus interesting storyline equals great game. Sonic Adventure DX has all of it and even more so we can surely name this game great. There are lots of advantages in it, so here are some of them:
+ Colourful and beautiful. Nowadays a lot of games have this, but back then it was pretty rare combination. Though you can say something like "all games of that period were colourfull" and you will be right. But this game combines it with beauty.
+ Six interesting connected storylines. How many times you played games with such a number of storylines? Each story is interesting in its own way and it is always great to meet characters from storylines you have already completed. In addition to that each character is unique so you will never get bored beacause of gameplay.
+ Chao. Chao are pets. Yes, in this game you can have a pet. And it is great.
+ Great things like looking for emblems, collecting rings and rank for completing level.
These are the main advantages, so now some disadvantages:
- Camera. It is a great problem not only for this particular game but for all games of action/platformer genre of that time.
- Difficulty. Sometimes you can struggle while completing the level. Especially when you are playing for the Big (Violet Cat).
