It seems like the first 15ish loops are fairly scripted to teach you how to play the game.
Good call since that's the sole reason I clicked on this unfamiliar OT and decided to try out the game
Edit: I actually take this back. I greatly disliked what I played; it had nothing in common with Zero Escape aside from scifi elements. I wasted time and money, all because of this OT title.

One thing I find kind of annoying is that when you are Gnosia if you get voted out you can't get a win/loss based upon if your ally gets the win. The game just ends with you being booted.
I think I am just shy of having finished 15 loops, but I'm finding this really compelling so far. Even with the more basic tutorial loops, I've been finding it pretty satisfying to go back and read who defended who to deduce the remaining Gnosia.
Really enjoying this. I just unlocked the last role at 21 loops, but I'm actually not sure if when you unlock it is scripted, or if it happens based on how you configure your games.
I'm not sure if any of the Japanese players have come to a consensus on what's best, but all the stats are useful. Certain abilities also have stat requirements; the game won't lock you out of gaining abilities if you don't have enough points, but you won't be able to use them until you do.

I think I was struck almost immediately by how decent the AI would need to be for something like this to work, like I was expecting sure you read and you make choices, but for the characters to be considering who to defend, the Roles choosing who to kill/save/investigate etc to all work in a believable way based on a wide array of player actions is actually fairly complex and they seem to have done a great job for something so unstructured, which is good because for procedural parts it kinda lives or dies on this.

I haven't seen any Western outlet reviews get, but the original Vita release got a 10/10 from IGN Japan.
Yeah, I've been really impressed by the level that they've implemented werewolf/mafia mechanics and how it all works together. It might be the best single player representation of the game and that's on top of the whole looping premise and all the extra elements.
My review will be dropping sometime later today, but I gave it a 9/10.
The ending is SO good and the lore is great. It's basically Among Us + Zero Escape + Raging Loop. I personally really loved it, despite some repetitiveness and sometimes I wanted to tear my hair out because I felt like I wasn't making story progress lol
I think Stealth and Intuition are the most useful. Stealth will lower your chances of getting killed overnight ( thus ending the round prematurely) and Intuition can kick in at random times, letting you know when someone is lying and gives you an extra edge.
Kind of. I played a bit over 200 loops in my playthrough to get to the ending.
Basically, you'll come across events that give you character entries in your crew log. They're represented as "!" on the map each night. They can be story events, events that give you a new skill, or simply that another character wants to team up with you
Right, I forgot that I had gotten a skill that compels people to say whether they're human. It has a high intuition requirement, so by the time you can use it, I'm sure there's a good chance that you'll be able to detect when people are lying.
It does. I think it also scales based on how difficult the game is.
How's the game then? Seems like people are enjoying it? Should I pick it up if I like games like 999 and Danganronpa?

Gnosia Review: Where Zero Escape, Among Us, and Raging Loop Collide
Gnosia draws similarities to games like Among Us and Zero Escape, but ultimately crafts a unique story with a crew of memorable characters.

Winning gives more but also overall difficulty. Theres a Q&A in the menus which explains a lot of stuff but if you won as 1 Gnosia against 14 humans, that would reward more xp.

How long does it take in your experience for the game to cross over from feeling like you don't have control of the situation and you need luck to "win" to you could consistently win each round?
You feel like you'll need "luck" at the earliest loops, IMO. But whether you win or lose, you'll gain EXP that you can use to increase your stats. As you level up, it'll be significantly easier to avoid Gnosia detection and also convince people of your arguments as well
I don't suppose there's an English Vita port of this? I'll happily grab it on Switch if not, but I can't seem to find a straight answer online
Really interested when they announced this in the direct. The only way for them to screw this up is if the AI gets too predictable/formulaic and we learn the behaviors in like 5 plays or something.
This looks like VLR + Among Us; how close am I?
EDIT: Dumb question, everyone already said the answer in the thread :P

Started it up on my treadmill, and that's, by far, the fastest that time has ever gone for me. Super addicting game. I agree that things feel a bit random at the moment, but I think that's mostly just cause my skills all suck at the beginning. Do people reccomend keeping things relatively even or going all in(mostly) on a single/few skill(s) first?
It is also a bit of a feels bad when I see someone and start a collaboration with them just to die that night because of them though lol.

I had a great win in a loop as someone wanted to partner with me, they died that night, and I was able to look back and see who voted for them, and that person was the last Gnosia.
Bought tho sad there will be no crazy anime gore with the teen rating tsk tsk
Text seems to be 720p on a tv too which ew

I'd focus on Stealth first, then Intuition. Stealth decreases the chance you get killed off overnight (ending your run prematurely) and Intuition can kick in at random times, telling you if someone is lying, and that can give you an edge.
Yup! true ending and everything
Am I doing something wrong, or is the game supposed to be skipping text?
First the opening intro scrolled by too fast to read, then multiple times during the first loop, the screen cuts away while a person's text box is still filling with text, so it's impossible to read it.
At the end of the first loop, the screen faded away and while it was fading away, the text changed to something else, but it was already too gone to read.
Is this just a stylistic choice? Am I pressing something too early?

Thanks for the advice! I'll start doing that instead.
Same thing happened to me. I think it's intentional.

i did notice it in those three instances. the first one was possible to read if you take screenshots, but the rest were impossible to read. i haven't seen any more cases of this in later loops tho.
Raging Loop is an outstanding game. Scratches the same itch that Gnosia apparently does, but with a heavy Asian horror leaning. Highly recommend.
