Crazy Ones: A Male-Centric Otome Game Review
Crazy Ones, a newly released otome game, offers a unique blend of turn-based combat and narrative-driven dating mechanics. The game centers on a male protagonist navigating the high-stakes world of big business, while pursuing romantic relationships with four distinct female characters.
This otome game distinguishes itself by focusing on emotional connections rather than simple fanservice. The four potential love interests each possess unique personalities: Hakuo, the dependable HR manager; Hyouka Natsume, the tsundere president of a rival company; Chika Ono, an aspiring musician; and Tomoko, the protagonist's protégé.
Combat is integrated through a turn-based card system utilizing the protagonist's memories. While the game's premise of simultaneous romances might raise some eyebrows, its visual novel style and focus on character development appear promising for fans of the genre.
Despite some reservations about the simultaneous romance aspect, Crazy Ones presents an intriguing twist on the otome formula. Available now on the iOS App Store and Google Play, it's worth checking out for players seeking a fresh take on the genre.
