Labyrinth no Kanata (Beyond the Labyrinth) 3DS game

Labyrinth no Kanata (Beyond the Labyrinth) is as stated a 3DS game. I found out about this game in the early days and i was eager to try it out. It's because the main character is a girl and wondering in a labyrinth. Anime girls is a yes in video game industry. I guess due to the game did poorly in sales, we never will get the english localization release for this game. It's sad. After clearing this game just now, I was thinking that this game might be the most enjoyable game i played in years. The game starts in 2D. I was pretty confused at that time when i started the game... Its was supposed to start with a 3D animated girl character. But i was wrong. It was started with 2D, and later on you will get to meet the 3D animated girl eventually. Soo i guess the opening is confusing but it's interesting. The thing that is worth a mention is The game icon logo before you launch the game is a NES game cartridge. Very nostalgic and meaningful. It truly describes the game you will be playing. The game should be in 2D like any other NES game at the time that is very 8-bit pixel... Somehow the game you playing in 2D connected with the world the 3D girl is at. So the game turn into 3D and so we discovered that we are in a Labyrinth of the game and we are going to save the girl and walk out of the labyrinth. But luckily, i was able to get my hands on the english fan translated patch for this game. Many thanks to the person who did the fan translation. It's much more enjoyable with the english text. Because of the translation i was able to clear the game and understand the story and the tactics to play this game. The more you play, the better you get. this is certainly a game where you need to put some efforts in to finish it. I myself used 60 plus hours of game play to clear the game with 100% map clear of the dungeon. I progress slowly at start to build the status. The secret passage mechanic really frustrate me some times because you could miss it at start and have to go all the way back to unlock it and wasted lots of time but it is worth it. Difficulty wise i think it's enough for me. (not the hard mode)..... It's pretty exciting to fight the bosses in the game because they are strong and keep you motivated. The last boss is a breeze if you kept lots of item to use it on him :) Story wise it's a nice closure but the fan boys always wanted more. Well, it gets a closure for letting players fantasize themselves... not bad.... this is a game where i give my score 10/10. note: Out there the fireworks are blasting like crazy...... :) the great celebration of a clear game!!
