Must-Buy!
Being a big kariosoft fan this is a must-buy even if you aren't a big kariosoft fan. You build a arcade empire and compete against rivals in a fight. Just play it as i cannot say what experience it has.

It's Okay, but...
This is a game I've begged for, for a very long time. Now that I've played it I see two major flaws that really detract from the game for me.
In most Kairosoft games, the gameplay is fast paced in the sense that you're always unlocking new things at a reasonable pace to keep the games interesting. This game, however, is SLOW. Unlocking new Arcade Cabinets takes forever. I played for around 8 hours and only had around 6 - 8 machines, whereas any other Kairo game would've had 3 times as many.
Your arcade is going to stay like it is for hours at a time. When you do eventually unlock a new machine, good luck, because you won't see another one for at least another hour. You spend so much time staring at your arcade, the same as it was an hour ago, that it all seems pointless. The pace is TOO SLOW.
The other problem is that you attract gamers by winning matches against other gamers. Match after match after match and the things you unlock are pointless and sometimes the item is something you already unlocked 10 minutes earlier.
EVENTUALLY you may get a new Game but it takes so many matches and they are so boring: Hit hit hit - block while the enemy has an aura otherwise he'll destroy you - and by the time his runs out, your aura starts and you pound him to dust. Every. Time. New game characters? Pointless. Training more than one gamer to fight? Pointless, as you'll have two weaker fighters instead of one strong one.
You basically spend your time winning matches and praying for a new arcade game that never comes. After I unlocked my first arcade extension, 7.5 hours later I still didn't have enough machines to fill half of it. It's frustrating!!

Should be called Game Dev 2!
Amazing game, instabuy no brainer. The word 'addictive' doesn't even cover it. Best wait til you have loads of time and battery life to start this one!!

Great
After their last few games, I was really getting put off by kairosoft but this game has turned them around. It's really fun and it has some depth to it. Well worth the money
