A new adventure from the creators of the Danganronpa and Zero Escape series! 15 students are tasked with defending a school from grotesque monsters for 100 days. Can they make it to the end? And will they survive long enough to uncover the truth?
Think of it as a huge, and very interesting, visual novel that offers you the freedom to sample as much, or as little, of it as you want, although the lack of sign posting means it's sometimes an uneven one.
The Hundred Line: Last Defense Academy is one of the grandest pieces of literature ever written, and it has quality to its quantity. However, at times, the quality suffers as a result, and it could have benefited from a couple of additional editing rounds to weed out certain aspects. Some routes are terrible compared to the general quality of the game....
Starting out as a fun-filled entertainment experience, The Hundred Line: Last Defense Academy quickly degrades into a torment that lasts for literally hundreds of hours.
Last Defense Academy has a lot of disparate parts working simultaneously, but it never creates any sort of disharmony. If anything, the visual novel, turn-based strategy, resource collection, and relationship management aspects complement and reinforce each other, creating a product far greater than the sum of its parts.
The Hundred Line -Last Defense Academy- is the perfect game for anime and strategy fans, but might leave those looking for a deeper RPG experience in the cold.
