Is there a difference in the text between english UK and US ? I doubt they changed the whole text, maybe just a few words here and there?

Gotta say it's kind of nice hearing voice actors that typically only do work in Sentais Filmworks dubs appear in this.
Surprised at how iffy this is reviewing. As someone who adores Zero Escape and Danganronpa, I still want to give it a shot at some point. I can usually overlook gameplay issues so long as the narrative is strong.
I'm so-so so far. I like the road trip aspect and the characters and their interactions are Nice, but the gameplay is complete shit.
I'm still giving it the benefit of the doubt due to the pedigree of those involved though.

The ios version is the complete game now, with the same ending as the switch version. They even added in the English voice acting (previously it was just in Japanese on apple arcade version).
Fuck. Game literally crashed when I beat the final boss. Fortunately it saved, but the cut scenes that played afterwards were still part of the action stage and not the final scene. Guess I'll have to YouTube it...
Also did the recording studio for this really only get that tiny mention in the special thanks section of the credits? lol

Eurogamer's Malindy Hetfeld gave a more positive take than many, along with a coveted Recommended badge.
Woof, we've almost finished it but my partner has dropped off it so fucking hard, considering both Kodaka and Uchikoshi's games are some of his favourites... he absolutely hates it.
I don't hate it, but it's a very weak game for sure. What a disappointment after waiting all these years.

I don't know how it is possible, but
somehow, since the beginning of the game, I had the impression that only few characters were able to hear and talk with Vanilla. And now.. I found out that it is true! The strange thing is that it wasn't hinted so strongly, so I am surprised this idea came up to me.

I typically love these type of games, but after reaching the true end in under 10 hours (the length is fine), I have to say I hated my time with World's End Club.
As everyone knows the "action" segments are atrocious. The problem is, the story isn't good enough to redeem them.
I went into this game expecting something on the level of A.I. The Somnium Files and left thoroughly disappointed.
At no point did WEC offer any cool WTF moments, which is what I come to these games for.
The best part of the game is in the first hour and once you leave the underwater theme park, the rest of the game is lacking.
I expected better from this pedigree.
Really disappointed.

So, if I only play my Switch in portable mode and with digital purchases, what are (if there are any) the reasons I should fork €40 to play this on NSW instead of just subbing to Apple Arcade for a month for €5?
Does it still support older phones like iPhone 7/8 on iOS?
edit: sheeeeeeeit reading Iori Fuyusaka comments really put a dump on my excitement for the game

finished it
it was okay... Nice and charming, but i can't recommend it at full price
The gameplay is absolute dogshit, it has no reason to exists and i don't understand why they just didn't get rid of it, nobody in their right mind would consider this good!
The story has some twist but it's more of an adventure with a group of friends! The group itself is really nice, everyone interacts together and have good chemistry
it's a cool adventure and a nice little story, i wouldn't be against more adventures like this, but in the end the game is just okay!
Altough i really fell in love with the main theme, the go-getter club anthem (GANBARE GUMI!)
This one is soooo relaxing and cute!
And even if it's a bit cheesy, when you hear the full theme with everyone, i couldn't help but smile

Finished in 16 hours. It was a fun little romp with some problems, but overall i enjoyed my time with it. The story wasn't mindblowing and i predicted everything but the art style and characters were all so charming and cute i didn't care. It's the only game from Kodaka and Uchokishi that i didn't dislike any of the characters. Whatever Too Kyo Games makes next i hope it's as charming.
I had a really great time with this game. Nothing will take you by surprise if you've played any of his other games, but he's got an underrated skill for writing dumb characters. Instead of just one or two, this time his entire cast is made up of dumb babies on a road trip together, rising tandem bikes and singing a corny club anthem. Every moment not spent doing janky platforming was just filled with nonstop charm.
Time to listen to the OST on loop as I nervously hope it did well enough for TooKyo to continue doing whatever they want to do.

So… I absolutely adored this game! It was utterly charming!
And I think… it might be my favourite Uchikoshi experience. It's in no way better than 999/VLR, but it was just so much fun and had so much heart! Love all the characters so much.
Jun Fukuoka did an amazing job with the OST, and you know what… even though the gameplay was mediocrity, I would gladly play it again in the future to experience it again.
I just hope that the next Tookyo project either has better gameplay or they cut it out completely.

I finished this the other day and ended up actually really liking it. I found a lot of the characters grew on me quite a bit by the end of the first few hours. All the intimate campfire segments were really enjoyable and the overall story was fun enough. Pretty feel good game and just a neat subversion of the killing game thing.
