High School Life vs Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch
High School Life
High School Life is an interactive story game that might be a bit simplistic. Instead of having a deep and well-hashed-out story, the most you'll be doing in this game is dressing up to meet and flirt with boys, and hopefully, you'll get a date to the school dance, be it Homecoming, Sadie Hawkins, Winter Formal, Valentine’s Day or the actual Prom. You don't get to spend a lot of time in the actual high school setting though, despite being a game titled as "High School Life".The characters in the game aren't very well-designed either. The boys in the game seem to look especially flat-faced and honestly, a bit on the ugly side of things. The "texting a friend" feature is pretty interesting but it would have been nice to have some sort of interaction with your BFF at school, where again, being a high-schooler, you should be spending most of your time at.
High School Life is a pretty shallow version of an interactive story game and hence, is a poor alternative to games like Episodes or Choices, but it might still be enjoyable for some players who like something simple.
Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch
Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch is a beautiful, anime-inspired action-adventure RPG that lets you follow the story and journey of a young boy named Oliver, who ventures into a parallel world in an attempt to save his mother. He makes some new friends along the way; friends who would help him battle the dangerous creatures he encounters. The battles in this game feels intuitive and dynamic, mainly because you can easily switch between characters and familiars and partly because of a combat system that combines real-time and turn-based mechanics.Ni No Kuni manages to catch the limelight back when it was first released mainly because of its masterful storytelling, well-packed into a fun and gorgeous role-playing adventure. By playing this game, you'll actually be able to immerse yourself in the world that Oliver finds himself in and relate to his struggles as he tries to do what's right to save his mother.
