Exactly As The Name - Zero Fiction

Translate
I'm giving this one two stars and both of them are for the girls.
The game menu is clean and ad/store free but also that's because the game has no microtransactions, currency, grinding, or not really much of anything actually. It appears like a visual novel menu, it basically has "New Game" and I forgot what the other button is.
The starting dialogue is pretty strong with "in the beginning there was nothing but then anime girls".
But then it just dumps you into the game's 8 stages, about 6 dialogues, and 1 game mechanic.
Overall the marketing materials and styling is done well enough that I expected a lot more and was questioning "this is just the tutorial, right?" right up until the end, only confused by the lack of a tutorial beyond the first stage and how by stage 4 it was already feeling like midgame gameplay.
I will give credit where credit is due though, being able to use multiple units at once is nice, and turns it into a sortof round based strategy rather than turn. Except that the enemies still attack in turns and the game gives no indication of this. the one mechanic is that you can upgrade your basic RPG stats after each battle... I put all mine in ATK and skill recharge and beat the game first try.
Conclusion
The total gameplay time was like 10-20 minutes... Which is a cost low enough it makes it hard to actually dis-recommend. Sure, it's feature bare and simple, but also, what can you expect for a 15 minute playtime? It doesn't do anything that makes me actively dislike it and the girls are pretty so... Is it really a waste of time to play for that long? I don't exactly regret playing it, so I think it's worth it's cost - $0 and 15 mins... If you want an excuse to check out what feels more like an admittedly pretty decently done style demo for the character 3D.
