Kuroinu Knights of Sidonia: Shoui no Kizuna

3.8

The game is pretty much created for those who like Sidonia no Kishi franchise. We play as a new character that interact with the main characters but can't really change anything that happened with the story which is kind of sad since you could only see how the fate of those characters unfold (RIP Hoshijiro) even tho you know what's going to happen to them and could interact with them (even some character got more emotional bond with your character). Tho I haven't gone really far since you only given free 5 times a day to progress the story and you have to use an item to refill the energy to do so which is pretty rare or you could use your premium currency to buy it.

Speaking of premium currency, currently (as of August 15th) there's no in game event so you won't be collecting them easily and it's very hard to get (reading story only give 10, clearing a chapter will give you 50). Premium currency could be used for buying some items that refill energy or increase your bond, unlocking 'Premium' story that cost you 600 (edit: Later there's another one with cost of 1000 so you might not want to spend for gacha if you're interested in this), while gacha cost you 3000 for free premium currency or 2400 for the first 5 times for paid premium currency. Oh yeah, the gacha is for equipment/clothes which is divided into 3 gender male, female, and genderless (aka Izana).

The graphic is the same as the anime. I think they use the same model as the anime but the animation is much more fluid than the anime (I guess the anime use lower frame rate (maybe like 24 fps?) than the game (60 fps)). If you watched the anime you'll know the charm of their 3D models.

The music is very good with lots of anime tracks that you know. The story is also fully voiced (except for our character, of course). Since the story is taking on our POV all of the voice acting (with the same VA as the anime) are new, with some exception for scenes that taken directly from anime, I guess.

The main gameplay tho, very sad. I thought it's gonna be like Gundam or turn based RPG. But no, you pretty much create a 4-man team, give them equipments that give some buff or debuff, then the game will do some calculation when you do PvE or PvP. If you don't like power simulation game, then you won't like the gameplay.

So over all, just like I said in the beginning, the game is targeted for those who really love Sidonia no Kishi but don't really think much about the gameplay. The game is not entirely for me, at least for now, even tho I really like the manga and the anime. Hopefully they'll do something interesting with the event or become more generous as time goes.

Update (18/08/21): There's an event now. It's a side story taking place sometime between the main story. I'm surprised that it's Mozuku (VA Sakura Ayane) event and we could actually get her by progressing the event. There's also a gacha of her costume, some kind of black dress. It's still hard to get premium currency so for anyone that want her costume I suggest you just reroll.
