Definitely pick this up if you like visual novels, story is somewhat predictable and characters feel pretty cliche it was still a nice read.

May 2024

This game is purely a Visual Novel/ADV game through and through with the added novelty of it being a VR game. If you're a stranger to these type of games, the only gameplay here is read, choose a story path, and more reading. For anyone that doesn't want to read or wanting more gameplay than that, unless you're interested with the premise of the story, I'm afraid that this game will not be to your taste. Treat these types of games as a book instead of a traditional game. Synopsis Tokyo Chronos is a mystery story about a group of friends that was transported to an isolated alternate version of Shibuya which they dubbed as the Chronos World . Without any memory of how they got there, the giant electronic billboard on Shibuya Tsutaya springs to life with a message, "I am dead. Who killed me?" Thus, kickstarting the mystery of who died and who's the killer. Review: I wish there was a "mixed" recommendation here on Steam. From the start, the story and writing here is interesting but unfortunately predictable for anyone who's a sucker for mystery VNs and theorizing along the way. The questions I have until the credits was enough to grip me into playing through the whole thing. However, I had mixed feelings by the end of the game. On one hand, I'm happy that the characters was given a satisfying closure by the end of the game unlike the other VNs of its genre; On the other, at the risk of spoilers, the "killer's" motivation of why they did it felt kinda stupid but still understandable. But I'm not here to knock this game down and say it wasn't great. The story is genuinely engaging and the characters here really felt like a group of friends that has history. While they all kinda fall into a generic anime personality stereotype, there is actually a reason of why their personality is like that in the first place. I really appreciate that the writing didn't overexaggerate their stereotypical personality and are one-dimensional and instead made them believable but not boring. Graphics-wise, if to be judged as a PCVR game here on Steam, it's kinda lacking. I understand that this is an early VR game and a native Quest app, but they could have at least enabled shadows for the characters only, upped the background quality textures a bit and some minor post-processing to at least spice up the quality for this release. Then again, this could be a design choice to make the background otherworldly aside from the huge ass scale of the game . I really liked the isolated feel of the game, with its persistent fog and the dreary gray of an unpopulated city. It felt like literally being stuck in a liminal space amplified by the immersiveness of VR. Animations here are almost non-existent. This is understandable as this is meant to mimic still images/CGs in visual novels, but still kind of disappointing. Character design is solid. Unique but still grounded designs and has an artstyle that can be comparable to Danganronpa games. Compared to other anime-stylized games, this game truly has a AAA feel to it. Music here is great too. Overall game soundtrack here may not be earwormy catchy, but it really fits well with the overall tone the game is trying to provoke. Opening themes and Ending themes are great, really felt like watching an anime in VR. I really like the alternate ending song too, (Kobo (光芒) by ASCA). Been playing that on repeat. Voice acting is extremely solid too. Their character design and body expressions really fits with the voices. Not once have I ever been taken out of the experience due to bad/irritating voices or mismatched expressions.

March 2024

Finally a VR game that feels more than a demo. This is basically a visual novel in VR, the story is moving and interesting to follow. Just be aware that you are supposed to finish the game not only one time, but basically go through all possibilities (which are reasonable and made clear) , and that you can have the true end only and only if you went through all the other possibilities first.
