The New Standard For Mobile Ports

This port is absolutely wonderful, I had a blast playing it, and still playing it with all the extra content. Well worth the money and a great way for anyone interested in Danganronpa to get into the series. The only nitpick I have is that there’s two common bugs: not being able to turn your camera when running around and sometimes not being able to teleport. The latter is not a problem as you can just press a different button and it’ll return but the camera issue you have to exit out of the app and return, making it a real pain. Anyway, now that I mentioned the few bugs I’ve ran into, I can say with confidence this is what mobile ports should strive to be. Controls built for mobile and no content taken out from the PS4 and PC counterparts, something that is very rare in mobile ports. Just get this game, I promise you you’ll get a bang for your buck.

A bunch of glitches in chapter 6

I got this for my birthday and it's amazing! My only complaint is it takes a few hours to download. But it's not that much of a problem since that’s not the game’s fault. If I could give 100 stars I would. The BTB is a little hard. But this is an amazing game and I don't see why anyone would give this below four stars! :) Edit: so I'm a little farther into the game and I have many more problems. First of all, in chapter 6, there is a glitch that speeds everything up. And I'm not just talking about dialogue. I'm talking about everything you do. And there's no way to fix this in the game. You just have to live with it. Also, a bunch of the items just glitch out. Like in chapter 6, the chicken coop and a bunch of other things disappear from the game. Again, there is no way to fix this. You just have to live with it. And I have no idea what to investigate. There is no way to figure it out without searching it up. And I’ve started to notice that the game drains my battery very fast. And it’s quite annoying to have to charge my phone every 5 minutes just cause the game drains my battery. I hope these things get fixed soon and I can change this review back to 5 stars. But until then, the game is a solid 3.

I really like the game, but…

as far as the game goes it’s great (well actually the trials can annoy me a lot sometimes because they’re inconsistent with what counts as a false statement but that’s neither here nor there. There are several gameplay issues however, nothing too bad, but I would hope to get a fully working game when I buy one. The most noticeable glitch is that any time a % sign is mentioned in the dialogue it does not appear and neither does any of the text that follows. I have encountered this at least 5 times so far so it’s not just a one time thing. Another issue is sometimes the game won’t allow you to change the camera angle until you close the app and open it again. This happened the first time I ever played and I struggled for minutes trying to figure out what was going on. The third issue i’ve encountered is that in my game, once I reached chapter 4, going into the archive room freezes the entire game and you can’t press any buttons whatsoever. Hopefully I don’t need to go in there for an investigation !

What is happening with the game.

So I have wanted to play a Danganronpa game for quite a while, but it is to expensive on ps4 and when it’s on sale i dont have the funds. So I saw this on tablet and I bought it. I was excited to play it, it showed the spike chunsoft logo for a bit and then showed a short loading screen, so far so good, until the title screen. When the title screen showed up it stayed for a split second and crashed. I opened the game again, same story. So i rebooted my device, it seemed to go better because the cunsoft animation was at a higher framerate, but in the title screen same thing happened. Many times, sometimes the title screen would be on for a few more seconds, I thought it was fixed so i tapped the screen to start it but it didn’t respond to it and the game crashed. Maybe my device isn’t compatible with the game? It shouldve shown that, because other games that aren’t compatibke will not download at all and say it’s not compatible with my device, but this game did not show that warning. So this is a problem with the developers? TLDR: game i bought keeps crashing on device and i didn't get a warning of the game not being compatible w/ my device...

Explanations

Its a really good game. But the reason i made the review was to answer one of the questions to the bad reviews. Most people have been complaining saying that the game keeps crashing and to fix it. The thing is if you are using a device that a bit outdated like iphone 6 or other outdated stuff it makes sense for it to crash. Danganronpa is a really long game and making a long game requires a lot of data and processing power, its not the developers fault that your device cant withstand all the data and processing power from the game, there is no way to fix it unless you get a newer device. And i know its true cause on my ipad it crashes too and i have an ipad air. Its a bit outdated and it cant handle the processing power and data from an app. And for the people that are saying that the audio doesn’t work, turn on your ringer.

Very good port, minor bugs.

This is a good danganronpa port. The game controls well, and the class trial portions play great! Although, there are some bits that bother me. First of all, the BTB portion of the class trial is slightly off, as the visuals and music are slightly off, but that could just be me. Finally, The auto function is not so accessible, and it’s kinda bothersome to open the menu every time I want to turn on auto. Other than that, this is a good port. Good job, Spike! Edit: I noticed that the BTB timing was fixed, nice! (A tad bit overdue update, but fixed nonetheless.) I noticed another bug, however, mostly with how some of the characters dialog cuts off unexpectedly. For example, in one of Yasuhiro’s Freetime events, he was supposed to say, (and spoiler warning for those who haven’t played it), “At the bare minimum, I’ve got a 20% chance of accuracy,” where in the port it just simply cuts out when he says “20%.” Hopefully this gets fixed in the future. Still, however, it’s a good port, and still worth playing.

Absolutely wonderful game!

I have been a fan of Danganronpa for a while, so when I heard they were bringing the three main games to mobile, I couldn’t wait to see what the gameplay would be like. And of course, it was fantastic. The controls were easy to understand, there weren’t any bugs. Some people complain that the backgrounds weren’t that great, but it is on mobile, so obviously the backgrounds won’t be as high quality as the backgrounds in the PC or console version. Surprisingly, the game wasn’t laggy at all. It has the same lovable characters, intense trials, and heartbreaks. It’s amazing plot didn’t change one bit. Trigger Happy Havoc on mobile exceeded all of my expectations. Whether you already played Danganronpa, or are looking for a new game, this is a must- have!

Boot Lock Issue‼️

So I was literally on the second to last trial of DanganV1 and the game started to get laggy, so I closed out the app to reset it. However when I reopened the app it opened to this black page that said “Boot lock” and that you apparently have to type in a password for. After I discovered this I googled this term (bootlock) online and discovered that several people had the same issue with the game. From what I’ve heard the only way you can get rid of the boot lock in order to play the game is by deleting the app. This results in you losing all your game progress however... Besides that gameplay was pretty smooth until that happened. The only little issues I did find were with the glitchy dialogues and portraits for some characters were also glitched AND when you did the walking thing you were unable to look around. But besides that the gameplay was smooth....but the whole thing it’s this “boot lock” is a MAJOR issue.

Visual novels is a great genre, especially for those who might not have the imagination, time, or attention for books!...
