Summary
Miss Kobayashis Dragon Maid Burst Forth Chorogon Breath is not a franchise I am overly familiar with, I know it’s an Anime and there are games and that is where it ends. OK so here we have a Shmup that combines the action and gameplay you expect from the genre and then they add in an almost loot drop system. You collect parts of an image to build up the complete picture, adjust treasure drop rates to have chests drop, and unlock random loot. The game allows you to adjust many aspects of the difficulty and loot drop. The actual gameplay is fins, 3 different characters each with unique shots and abilities, you can freely swap between them and the only thing is you need to beat all five levels in one go. That’s another thing I don’t really like is that the game is very short, it offers only a loot collection for replayability, and as I said I don’t have full knowledge of the franchise so all the images and treasures are kinda pointless. At the end of the day, the game is fine but after one sitting you will struggle to come back for more.
