Reverse 1999 offers a unique blend of stunning visuals and a captivating story set in an alternate 1999. The game mixes strategy and RPG elements, allowing players to engage in tactical battles while uncovering a rich narrative. The character designs are beautiful, and the world-building is immersive, drawing you into a world where time itself is manipulated. If you enjoy story-driven games with strategic gameplay and a touch of mystery, Reverse 1999 is definitely worth a try :))

This is one of the best ongoing visual novels I had the pleasure of reading in years.
Ignore the fact I barely have any hours on Steam, as I play it on my cellphone.
If you are a big fan of mystery VNs with darker atmospheres, you gotta give it at least a shot.

The story has no right being this ambitious and well elaborated and being completely free-to-play/read. And not to mention the game is extremely fair with its monetary practices, I was getting every single character with just what the game provided me, and eventually ended up going out of my way to buy the dirty cheap monthly pass just to support the devs, as this is a incredibly ambitious work of passion that is very rare to be seen in its market (aka, gacha game stuff, which in this game is not at all detrimental to your progress enjoying what it's provided, mind you, I'm actually having my fun doing challenge runs with low level low tier units -even because now they have a story mode difficulty, for those just wanting to enjoy the reading).

Do keep in mind that there are some typos here and there in the translation, but they mostly fixed a whole bunch that both I and other fans sent them to correct early on (they created online forms for fans to help out in that regard, to my own pleasant surprise, as a translator myself), while the general polishing only got better as time passed.

And ignoring the fact it's a great visual novel, it's also a really good game that updates frequently with brand new features and different game mechanics/modes (including a now permanent rouguelike mode that you can play to your heart's content). Lastly, the OST is stellar, and the voice acting in every single language available is fantastic.

Thus I shall repeat, just do yourselves a favor and at least give it a chance.

Amazing game. Doesnt matter if you like gacha games or not because the story, characters, voice acting, music, art and story are all amazing. 11/10.

Good story still skipped with beautiful visual novel and strategic game-play.
Cures my crippling gacha addiction xD

★★★☆☆

Reverse: 1999 is a gacha game, first and foremost. It is also a breathtaking visual novel coupled with an elegant turn based combat that is easy to learn. The music is top notch and the voice acting is superb.

There are so many characters to collect and thus many fun teams to build. There are certain events and mini-games to spend your time on besides the regular grind.

I've only played it for a couple of hours and am halfway through the second chapter of the main story, so I cannot comment on the end game content or the overall quality of it as a gacha game.

As a F2P beginner, the game is pretty fun so far. I am totally invested in the main story. I have two 6 star and lots of 3/4/5 star characters to experiment with. The slow-paced visual novel and turn based combat gameplay might not be for everyone, but it is simply well done.
