(I guess I really liked their Fushigi Yuugi games too but that was in great part due to my Nojinii bias). I hope it doesn&#8217;t disappoint because it&#8217;s got me nicely from the start.<\/p>\n<p>*edit* Anddddd it does not disappoint&#8230;! My first high score for an Idea Factory game.~ If you like Takuyo&#8217;s otome games, this one should be right up your sleeve too. Also, for anyone who wants to CRY THEIR EYES OUT IN LOVE&#8230;~<\/p>\n<p>But word of warning, I&#8217;ve only played Narumi&#8217;s route (but I won&#8217;t spoil, it&#8217;s best to experience the love yourself!). XD;<br \/>\n<!--more--><strong>Story:<\/strong> As the game implies, it&#8217;s about gods. Japanese traditional shrine\/temple gods. Specifically, you become one. Nice catch, huh. But apparently, you still have to prioritize being a high school girl before being a god. It&#8217;s all good. XD There&#8217;s a good amount of gag mixed into the story despite getting very down-to-earth in many places.<\/p>\n<p>The first half is general storymaking, while the second half revolves entirely around you and the guy you&#8217;re going after. In the route I chose, there&#8217;s plenty of heart-clenching love story to go even after the confession. HOW that happens, I won&#8217;t spoil. Just that&#8230; IT&#8217;S A SUPER PLUS. I bawled my head off despite knowing in my head I was going to get myself a HAPPY ending, and it was beautiful.<br \/>\n<strong>Characters:<\/strong> Like Takuyo&#8217;s games, the girl in this title actually has some PERSONALITY. YES. You&#8217;ll see it come out in her dialogue, the events in the game, etc.<\/p>\n<p>Sakaki Narumi &#8211; Hoshi Souichirou (cool childhood friend)<br \/>\nNinokami Yuzuru &#8211; Narita Ken (cool&#8230; catboy)<br \/>\nTakekiyo Yakumo &#8211; Hatano Wataru (older athletic &#8220;brother&#8221; type)<br \/>\nMizuniwa Rei &#8211; Iguchi Yuuichi (younger genki&#8230; ghost)<br \/>\nAmatsukuni Hoshien no Mikoto &#8211; Sakurai Takahiro (your predecessor god)<br \/>\n+ some subcharacters&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Word of warning, I&#8217;ve only played Narumi&#8217;s route. XD; Once I set myself on a guy I REALLY like, it&#8217;s hard for me to get the heart to try anyone else from the same title ^^;<\/p>\n<p>Btw, Hoshi uses his cool low voice for this one. His character is just 100% cool, in a GOOD way. kamisama&#8230;!<br \/>\nI think this is the first time I went for a true childhood friend route. And it just hooked me in this time.<br \/>\n<strong>Graphics:<\/strong> 10. Honestly some of the CGs are a tiny bit awkward to me, but I really shouldn&#8217;t be complaining considering just how GORGEOUS they are.<br \/>\n<strong>Sound:<\/strong> 9. Nothing absolutely OMG GODLY music, but it&#8217;s beautiful in the right parts and entertaining in the right parts.<br \/>\n<strong>Gameplay:<\/strong> Strongly visual novel with traditional choice-making, and a smalllll choice-making twist for the first half of the game. Close to midpoint, I read up a guide and was surprised to see so few choices required for a route. I got a little nervous, but turns out I had no reason to be. If anything, I would relate it to Panic Palette, where the first half involves a little more general &#8220;gaming&#8221; action, and the second half revolves entirely around you and the guy you&#8217;re going after. There&#8217;s even less to do for Kami Naru Kimi to, but that&#8217;s not a bad thing. You just get more nice visual novel instead. <img src=\"https:\/\/majinken.pmsinfirm.org\/wp-includes\/images\/smilies\/icon_smile.gif\" alt=\":)\" class=\"wp-smiley\" style=\"height: 1em; max-height: 1em;\" \/><br \/>\n<strong>Replay Value:<\/strong> The word index that gets unlocked after a game clear is hilarious (have to clear other routes to complete the index). Every term has a narration by the characters. Narumi&#8217;s are hilarious. :DDD<br \/>\n<strong>Overall:<\/strong> 10. Despite my presumptions on Idea Factory games, this one just blows the rest I&#8217;ve tried out of the water. In a good otome game, I need a world I can get sucked into, where the characters ACTUALLY INTERACT with each other, where there are both lighthearted and heartbreaking moments&#8230; down-to-earth moments&#8230; full-on trials and tribulations of love (that aren&#8217;t just ridiculous)&#8230; this game has it all. <\/p>\n<p>Btw, my end bias for this strong rating is because this Hoshi is so crushable for me. THIS HOSHI, Hnggggggggggggggggg!!!!<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m under the assumption that this game didn&#8217;t get very much marketing? Not enough people talking about it. Maybe because the cast isn&#8217;t as extravagant as other titles lately? Is Hoshi turning people away from the game? Is that really it? D8<br \/>\nOh also, <a href=\"http:\/\/breadmasterlee.wordpress.com\/2011\/11\/05\/otome-game-review-kami-naru-kimi-to\/\">a much more extensive review with all the spoilers<\/a> if you&#8217;re interested. Since I probably won&#8217;t end up playing the other routes just because of how I am, this was a good read for me AFTER finishing my route. XD; But I&#8217;m personally very set on not giving spoilers on my end.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.otomate.jp\/kamikimi\/\">Official site<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/otome.girly.jp\/kamikimi\/menu.html\">nihaa<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Title: Kami Naru Kimi to \u795e\u306a\u308b\u541b\u3068 Console: PSP Genre: Otome, Visual Novel Language: Japanese Company: Idea Factory Summary: omg this MIGHT be the first Idea Factory game I could score as high as I do for Takuyo games?
