4/5 ★ – Yuna67876's review of Hakuoki: Kyoto Winds.

Platform: PC Time (not in game time) to completion: 83 hours 18 minutes Hakuoki Kyoto Wins was one of the otome games that started me in this genre, and now finishing it now I can understand why that was the case. The problem though with this game is it had a quantity over quality a bit. This game has 13 different routes (12 guys + a normal route), and for an otome game that is a bit overkill. For the first couple of routes I did it felt worth it but as you get to the other routes it just a lot of skipping the the first chapters while seeing the new scenes for that route, and it just got a bit too much. The nice thing is repeat playthrough of the other routes takes about I say 4-5 hours due to repeated sections. Though minding that, I enjoyed my time with this game and I can’t wait to play the second half of the series within the next couple of months.
