Attack on Survey Corps

I thought that Attack on Survey Corps turned out to be a fantastic parody of a popular anime. I had played this over a year ago when it was in very early development and thought it was ok. Fast forward to now and I decided to give it another try and see how it was shaping up. Man, this thing is epic and I had a blast with it. Granted, you will get more out of it if you are a fan or at least familiar with the anime it is based on. However, I think even someone ignorant of this series could have fun with this game.

A Familiar Face

In case you did not know, Attack on Survey Corps is a parody of the anime Attack on Titan. I have actually watched through that entire anime twice now as I love it so much. Skinless evil giants? You better believe that is something I am all about. However, what we have here is a game that is taking the story of the people training for war, but they have us as an original character thrust into these situations we know and love. While I liked it as a fan of Attack on Titan, it explains things well enough that even those unfamiliar with it will not be lost.

Thanks, Jean!

The plot of the game sees us arriving for training (we are a dude) however, Attack on Survey Corps has a twist in store for us. You see, we show up to training with our sister and we end up getting on the wrong side of Jean who gets jealous of us chatting it up with Mikasa and Eren. We are kicked out of the male barracks and have to shack up with the women folk, thus leading to a bunch of lewd encounters. It is a fun parody and as it does not take itself too seriously it is very easy to get into.

Today’s Guest Artist

Attack on Survey Corps is a very interesting looking game. For the most part, this is a fantastic looking game. I love how they captured the style of Attack on Titan here, but in a lewd way. I actually got a real kick out of some of the more suggestive, not fully nude art in the game. I do wish that there was some smoother animation, but what is kind of jarring is that sometimes it seems like a scene or two is done by a different artist. It could be just me, but there are some scenes that have a rather different look than the rest of the game, making me wonder if the developer hired a random guy to help out or something for a scene or two.

No Grinding = No Frowning

As far as the gameplay Attack on Survey Corps is offering goes, I think what they have done here is great. This is a sandbox adventure style of lewd game that manages to keep the stuff that makes a sandbox game annoying at bay. There is no over the top grinding for stats in this game, having to do the same thing over and over again. For the most part, it is making story choices that keep you going in the direction you want to go. You do have to click certain areas to chat with certain characters, but it is not hard to figure out or anything like that.

Pros:

• I liked the story that was told
• It has some very well written and interesting characters
• The art does have its charm
• Fans of Attack on Titan will get a huge kick out of this

Cons:

• Some of the art does look a bit off like it was done by a different artist
• I get some may be put off by the AOT setting
