Collar x Malice Review
Dec. 19th, 2021 03:07 pmThis is a Japanese f/m dating sim about being a cop working against terrorists. It's pretty fun for what it is but it's...sure a game with that premise.
Content notes for the game: Violence, death, suicide, child harm, fantasy slavery, stalking and sexual harassment (just secondary characters), terrorism, life under a scary quarantine (not disease related), unfortunate treatment of mental illness, uncomfortable depiction of cyberbullying and gaming addiction, PTSD, probably other things I'm forgetting
Also there is a shooting minigame which requires some timing. I got the hang of it pretty quickly but if you can't you're locked out of all the happy endings.
I've put the rest of my review under a cut just because 90% of people will already have checked out by now. But there's no spoilers, just more discussion.
