Labyrinths of Astoria

but Im surprised that they really did well at drawing a NYC subway terminal and car I found Cerberus free chapter more interesting than Hydras but seeing as how you have 3 parts to a story and each part is 299 Im hesitant to purchase either of them right now        I dont like how the characters look

I was not at all convinced of voltage USAs offerings in the past and was skeptical if I would like this story at all despite loving mythology I chose Hades and do not regret it at all The storyline is compelling in his story and Persephones character was so welcome I appreciate that voltage USA is choosing to portray a variety of racers genders and body types As someone with many friends active in the LGBTQ community I also am impressed the way they portray the boss Alex Cyprin as genderneutral Even going as far as using nongender specific pronouns consistently throughout the game Well done voltage USA for choosing to portray a potential LGBTQ character I hope you give them a romance storyline Id certainly buy it                 Voltage branches out

I thought the story was outstanding It actually kept my attention and the MC wasnt an airhead finally I recommend                 Another great voltage game

I played hydra I love the storyline but I hate the fact that I had to pay three time I mean 9 bucks for one story thats like 18 chapters when I usually pay 4 bucks for one story and it 13 chapters I really want to read hades and medusa really bad but I dunno about those pricesooo and the crashes dont get me started I was like all into it then bam crashes The drawing style was different but I got use to it I was really excited when I payed it at AX so I have been looking forward to it           Natural

I have never once complained about price but BUT at 299 for a measly 6 chapters ok changing review here still mad at 3 for 6 chap but but I have found that the story I read changesmaybe only in wording I have found that each choice makes a difference in what I read and I love that and I love that you will offer Meduca not that I will buy it sorry not my thing but even at the stupid prices I try not to pay Cyprenhot boss I would be tempted to buy              3 stars because I love mythology

Oh my god Im in love with hades already I love the way the first story came out and I cant wait for the second to be release But Im very impatient so hurry please                 HADES

I only played Cerberus route and I love that puppy dog personality he has The only thing I dont like is that is that each route is separated into 3 main stories and that you have to pay all 3 of them to get the whole thing It would be nice if it was like StarCrossed Myth and probably other Japanese Voltage games I havent played yet where you pay once for the whole main story but pay extra to get epilogues sequels epilogues to sequels special stories etc Also instead of Medusa being the only female love interest Cyprin would be nice too Although Im a heterosexual female playing female routes may be interesting different Thats something Japanese Voltage would never do so that Ill give props to VoltageUSA One last thing as far as the art goes I dont really have complaints at least with most character concepts My friend pointed out that it looks like the artist rushed with Chimera or something I agree Im least attracted to Hades too Not feeling the hair but whats done is done Hes not out yet but I wonder how youll pull off a mythological god whos already married to his niece FYI I like to have his first wife the goddess Persephone mentioned in his route but I feel itd be too cliché if they divorced she died out to get the main characterplayer etc It had better be not the third because in the actual myth she was forced to marry Hades Thats all I have to say Keep it up              Really Impressive so far

I have a deep love for Greek mythology so Im absolutely in love with this game Ive thoroughly enjoyed all the stories Ive played especially Hades and am really looking forward to the next two chapters The only reason this game didnt get five stars is because it crashes on occasion and I wish there was some type of bookmarking feature so that if you have to quit right in the middle of a chapter you didnt have to start from the beginning once you get back to the game              Most enjoyable yet

When I first heard of this game I found the premise and characters really interesting An MC who was basically an agent for Greek mythology Sign me up The art isnt off putting to me its a definite step up from some of the other more stylized art Voltage USA has done before like Intimate Business and the backgrounds are really nice not all just stock backgrounds used in other games And since this game was a collab with Voltage USA I was looking forward to writing that would be solid and interesting I bought Cerberuss first main story regardless of the price since it wouldnt matter as long as I liked it However after playing it Im not sure if it was worth it after all The main story was very short with an unimpressive CG and I felt that the romance was really rushed Like they knew they only had 6 episodes so they tried to cram as many romantic situations as they could despite the ongoing case which sometimes felt glazed over Also the MC despite being praised as a diligent professional seemed to make a couple rather unprofessional decisions such as ignoring an important suspect in Cerberuss story in favor for someone who wasnt there And even when I managed to get the passionate ending POV I didnt feel rewarded at all with such a short sceneIn all there was so much potential in what could have been for this story but even if it got better in the next main stories Im so disappointed in what I got for the price I paid Im not that interested in buying more I appreciate the nice cohesive stylized art direction but I think more attention should have been paid to the writing           So much potential

I thought the update would most definitely stop the crashing but I guess I was wrong It still crashes when I try to play Chimeras story I like the graphics and I dont mind paying but I cant play peacefully if the game crashes every time I get to a certain point           Bugs were not fixed

I like the stories well enough but paying 3 times to get the full story is completely ridiculous In the future Ill be skipping any voltage apps with this system        Too expensive

Its different than the usual voltage games and its also really good The app crashes but other than that its enjoyable For the crashing issue I found that if you delete appspictures to free up memory the App runs much smoother with less crashes Overall I love it              New and different but really good

The art style is terrible and far from pleasing to the eye I couldnt get through the free prologue because of it Plus I hear you have to pay twice to see a full story You are slipping voltage Please bring back quality art and storyline without ripping us off Bad move        If youre like me

Character art is subpar and you have to pay twice just to get the main story which at least for Hydra is okay I regret paying once Voltages other stuff is better     Not worth it

I waited for Hades and it was a good choice I love him soooo much I cant wait for more D I do wish you got more than onetwo images though              Off to a good start

Several reviews report crashes but I never had that problem This app played well for me and I loved it The story for Hydra was most engaging and I also liked that the MC had a face After buying the first set I couldnt stop myself from finishing                 Love it

It could be better but the story was good I just didnt like how you had to pay to get 3 stories for 299 I liked it better when whole           To much money spent

I love the idea and love the different characters The art doesnt bother me so much either What bothers me is the Love Meter No matter what I do I can NEVER get the Passionate Ending Ive literally tried every combo of choices I even wrote them down so I wouldnt repeat anything Please fix that This app has so much potential              I love it but

This is a good game the o lay problem I have is that it kicks me out at the same part over and over again I cant get far in this I would give it five stars if that didnt happen              Well

First I hardly write reviews I love the story but HATE the graphics The main gods look horrible The only one that thought was decent was hades and his story isnt out yet I only read the prologue but not sure I will actually read any of the stories Im usually a huge voltage fan and until now have never been disappointed by one of their games           Conflicted

The first time I wasnt sure about the new game but after I read the prologue and choosing hades I can say that Im inlove with it however Im still waiting for hades main story 3 and is not nice that I have to pay three times to read the end this game is more expensive then the others                 In love with Hade

I love Greek mythology and I was super stoked to play through this but I refuse to pay 10 per character I have played so many different games like this where you get tokens to read free each day Why can that not be an option Also the art is well rendered but it still doesnt make the price worth it Save your money and go play something else        Pay to Play

I dont normally write reviews but after I finished Hydras route I felt like I had to I wasnt sure about this game when I read all the bad reviews but decided to give it a try It was so worth it Yes its more pricey than the other voltage games I played But they didnt just take a Japanese game and translate it into English All the graphic are different and beautiful and thats what you pay for The main character is strong and easy to relate to All others are gorgeous I felt like I was in a CW show Cant wait to play more                 Beautiful Worth it

Not a fan of the art style western looking cartoony graphics are unappealing to me Its clear from the prologue that it is being catered to a western audience based off of the way they talk and behave If I wanted that I would read any one of a thousand cheesy romance novels out there for a fraction of the price I like the other Voltage games because their mannerisms and stories are distinctly japanese I agree that it is obvious they are catering to tumblr while trying to poorly emulate existing dating sims App ran smoothly aside from that     Not for me

We finally get a female route YAAAAAY Sadly it is not yet out for me I have been TRYING to play Hydras route but I just cant seem to get past the first episode cuz the game keeps crashing Thats probably just a bug thatll be fixed soon so Ill be waiting In the meantime Im gonna go vote for Eisuke XD              It Looks So AWESOME

The only real reason why I gave this five stars is because of Hades I think after all the comments the story lines gradually became better and better He is so handsome and fun to read about Good job Cerby was adorable too but Hades is definitely the best                 Hades

I was not sure at first if I wanted to play this game but Im really glad I did So far Ive played all of Cerberus stories and first stories of hydra and hades The background art is amazing and the main character is so likeable and very bold and different compared to most mc of Japanese games The characters are also so sweet and unique and the stories are engaging and well written I was put off by the price per story at first because you get only 6 chapters but they are well worth it Hope to see more games of this quality in the future Ps the crashing is still a minor problem                 Really great game

The bugs and all are a little better but on certain chapters it goes only to a certain extent before crashing at the same spot Its a pain to skip it and go onto the next which ends up spoiling what happens nextidk if its because Im low on memory Im into MBs now DX or what but it isnt very fun when the story gets good and the app decides to be like Nope Sorry you aint reading any farther XP and crashes and brings me out Ive retried by sliding the active app up when you double click the home button to stop an active app to conserve battery but it doesnt really workplease fix them I cant read some of Hydras Main Stories 2 3 because of this           Still Crashes

I know this might be too soon to ask but when does Hades main story 2 3 come out That one is my favorite and I already read main story 1              Love this

App crashes CONSTANTLY Even after several re downloads And you have to pay not once not twice but three times Thats roughly 10 per character instead of the 427 I would usually pay You create games too quickly without updating the old ones and since theres 6 to 7 characters or even more if the character Im super excited about is last I have to wait FOREVER Youre like the EA of apps     Are you kidding

So I saw the previews for this one before it came out and was excited I didnt realize that its actually of the American branch of voltage but once I realized it I thought to myself this is really a big improvement from their previous work I strayed away from the American made apps because of the CGI drawing and graphics The art was not as great as the Japanese sides drawings But this one in comparison is amazing I do love the art way more And of course the storyline is stronger than their Japanese counterparts I really hope to see more of this type of work                 Its their best yet

I like the beginning of the story a lot It has potential but i cant get through chapter 2 without it crashing Ive tried everything to get it to stop like erasing the app and downloading it again to restarting my device and it still crashes           Crashes

I love the game and the plot the only downside is that I keep getting kicked out of the game Still havent gotten past the first chapter yet           Labyrinths of Astoria

Its different from the Voltage JP games but I enjoy that I feel like other voltage games follow the same sequence and many scenarios end up being repetitive I still love them though with this so far Ive only read Hydras main story 1 I felt a breath of fresh air upon playing it Not to mention its very well written Good job Voltage USA Now please release a route for Alex XD                 Its great

The writing is good Ill give it that Enough for me to not hate the art as much as I did when I first saw it there is just something about it thats off to me AND OMG YOU GUYS HAVE A GIRL PLANNED AS A LOVE INTEREST HOW AWESOME However that said there are still MAJOR issues I have with this game For reference my experiences come from buying Hydras ENTIRE story line 1 FIX THE LOVE METER The love meter doesnt work Not matter what choice you choose you only get the thrilling ending And if Im going to have to pay for a three part story I am certainly NOT going to buy the story endings set Maybe the meter is meant to work but it doesnt so it seems the only way to get the other end is to purchase it And personally I think thats just dirty pool I hope this is a bug that will be squashedSOON 2 There is something off about the art The one still or so that they give you is kind of okay but Im not sure if its just the drawing style or what but something about it screams unfinished to me Its possibly just personal preference but hold it up next to the Japanese games you put out and youll see what I mean as far as quality wise Cmon Voltage USA get it together please I love you guys but your USA branch needs to step up their game        Could be so much betterplease fix this game

OMG pleaz fix the game Id love to read more the 1chapter it keeps shutting down after ch1 Im begging you pleaz fix it I like the story           OMG XC

First off just pure does the app run or crash I read that some people are experiencing crashing issues but that has not been my experience at all Astoria ran smoothly every time I booted it up and Ive had it since release so for what its worth I have not had any problems running it on iPhone 5S with the most recent iOS updates I have only run Hydras season Main Story 1 2 and 3 not Cerberus but I ADORED every bit I played The plot was captivating and the supporting characters helped build a really rich world Sometimes both particularly supporting characters are neglected in otome games and romance sims but this cast was full of friends allies family and antagonists without ever feeling cluttered Personally that was huge for me those supporting characters were lovely but the fact that they werent competing love interests not that I would ever say no to Alex Cyprin or May routes was sort of nice and helped keep from distracting from Hydras route There are fewer chapters and CGs per story than most Voltage games but the content doesnt feel short The dialogue is incredibly natural and MC main character very much expresses what most players are thinking Its something of a relief to snark off in your head to your love interest and then MC gives him the exact lip you were imagining MC is not punished for this which is validating The action and romantic content are both pretty robust honestly I was impressed This is one of the better games in the Voltage library that Ive played The structurecost may be a little offputting because it is a little more expensive I understand that on a limited budget it may be prohibitively so because the cost of 13rd of the story and the end set I personally bought the end sets to save time and support the app but I know thats a luxury would be an entire season in most other Voltage games If you can afford it though I dont think you would be disappointed in the payoff of the mystery Theres enough room again speaking for Hydras for a natural lead into a second season but the plot wraps up and both endings offer powerful awesome scenes and a separate CG for each If youre strapped for cash I would hate to see you resent the app because you spent that money and then didnt even get a complete story Main Story 1 is NOT standalone its really a part 1 and all three parts complete the main story But again though if you have the cash to commit I thought it was SUPER worth it and I loved throwing money at this team Theyre making a female love interest theres a wonderful sadly not yet romanceable androgynous character and so much more variety in the cast than the usual fair not to mention STUNNING backgrounds and the writing was SPOT on I dont know I didnt feel any remorse dropping a little more on this game Its hard not to be aware of the debate over the art Marrying common anime and manga styles with a Western approach is difficult but in the end I thought it was very successful but your mileage may vary I am happy to see something that looks natural because sometimes trying to perfectly emulate the artistic feel of a mangastyled visual novel is regrettable Id rather them find their own style get comfortable and help expand the range of styles available and accepted for games like this In other words it worked for me So across the board this game gets my applause Loved MC loved Hydra loved Cyprin loved the whole cast loved the mystery and plot loved the dialogue and jokes and little details loved the way magicauras were animated and action was handled cant wait for Medusa                 Adored this game

I was never a fan of Voltages westernized games but I thought I should give this a try anyway since the story seemed interesting and they were relaunching their American branch I cant believe I wasted my money and time on this If I could rate this zero stars I would 1 Art is horrible I know some people like the westernized art and thats fine but the anatomy and poses for some of the CGs and sprites are really off and overall unnatural 2 WAY too expensive You have to pay multiple times for a total of 9 for one story To top it off you only get one real CG and one image with some photoshopped text for each separate part of the story I thought the stories were expensive because it was textheavy andor CGheavy but its not Peeing out expensive coffee is worth more than this 3 Story is incredibly week Tries too hard to be like the existing Japanese apps To top it off Voltage seems to be catering to tumblr an awful lot because this entire game is the direct result of tumblrs very vocal audience I didnt start playing otome games to have SJW waved in my face I started to get away from it 4 Since Id never been a fan of the westernized Voltage games I was happy Voltage kept them separate from their translated Japanese games I know some internal stuff happened and thats why they launched this AmeMix line and needed some advertising but from now on please just keep them separate I am so sick of seeing ads for this game whenever I open the Japanese apps One of these things is not like the others and I dont want to see it 5 Why is this game even able to be linked with Sweet Cafe but Her Love in the Force isnt This is completely unfair Honestly just save yourself the trouble and play their other games     Please just stop

THIS IS MY NEW FAVORITE GAME BUT THE POV IS TOO SHORT                 AMAZING

So far Ive played all of Hydras storyline but unfortunately its a bit pricey for the rest of the storylines so Im not sure if Ill buy the rest Otherwise I loved the game and wish it was longer              Good concept a little pricy

Okay so whenever I want to get a voltage game I always look at the ratings and comments I had heard of this game to one of my friends who also plays voltage so I figured I would try it out At first I was doubting this game because the graphics are different maybe a different artist or something ANYWAYS So I read the prologue and to say the least I thought it was very intriguing Soooo I chose Hydra the super hot guy with black hair and blue eyes and to my surprise the story costs 299 and if you have played other voltage games its usually 399 So you save a dollar pretty much And hey I like my dollars So I thought that was cool and after a while I got used to the graphics and stuff so that didnt bug me eventually And another surprise It left off at a cliff hanger And then I noticed that it had separate stories that you have to pay individually To be honest I was kind of annoyed But all money aside I REALLY wanted the rest of the story So I coughed up another three bucks I think my character had about three stories I think Idk I cant remember I was up all night playing it seriously it was addicting as usual So in the end Ive given this specific game four stars Sorry voltage people paying multiple times was kind of annoying but at the same time I guess I didnt have to pay if I didnt want to Well I loved the story anyways Just plays update more characters and stuff Okay people peace out              Eye opener

Im so glad the medusa story is out I love it                 Love it

Come on Its like youre running out of ideas You just made a game a couple of weeks ago and now theres another one Slow down Please put more effort into the next one Im really disappointed     YOU CAN DO BETTER VOLTAGE

Want to like this app it has a good premise Im also in love with the background art and appreciate the fact that voltage has decided to stray away from that awkward looking too humanlike character art theyve done in the past Much less distracting when the characters look more like drawings That aside it is impossible to get anywhere in this game without it crashing I havent even pasted the first episode without it crashing on me Im completely disappointed in the technical failures of this game Its just full of bugs My only hope is that they fix it soon Also the 3 main story layout is ridiculous especially since is only 6 episodes long per story and each is 3 Thats utterly ridiculous and cant see it working in voltages favor Two stars for finally making an ok looking American game but even then Im just being nice Come on voltage this is the quality of gameplay youre turning out now What a disappointment        Crashes every chance it gets

I understand these characters arent supposed to look like they are anime but something about them is kinda off looking This isnt my main concern though its the fact that I cant get passed episode 1 of Hydras story and when I try to skip to the second chapter Im very confused I would love to give you more stars but I cant at the time with this major bug effecting the app and story line                 Its fantastic but there are some problems

The app keeps crashing and its getting to the point where I cant even enjoyprogress in the story Im mad that I wasted 299 on this But the characters are good        Annoying

MEDUSAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA                 IM IN LOVE

Im so excited theres going to be a girl route As a bi girl this makes me super happy                 Awesome

I loved every second of this game The characters the settings the romance it all felt more real then most romance games I world highly recommend this game to anyone The Medusa romance reminded me so much of my girlfriend and me that I found myself crying tears of joy at the sweet intimate moments A crash once in a while was saddening but couldnt stop my enjoyment of this game                 A few crashes cant stop the romance of this game

I like the idea of the app and Im really excited for Medusas route to be released but I cant get through a single episode without the app crashingrestarting Please fix this        Help
