It was pretty good, needed a bit more to it though.

If you have played the game Persona 5, imagine it stripped down a bit, and then you would have Tokyo Xanadu. Now strip that game down and you would have Blue Reflection. Not to say it is not a good game, but I think it needed a bit more in terms of game play. It also could have used more challenging combat as often I would spam the same one or two moves and kill the regular enemies within the game. The setting is different as it is an all girl school, thus leaving the game devoid of any romantic side quests, but it had a nice story to it and that is the main reason you play a game such as this anyways. Well, at least I do.

The story has a girl who was very good at ballet, but she got an injury that prevents her from performing. She has been out of school a bit, and she returns a bit of a hollow version of herself. That is, until she is transported to a strange realm where she gains magical abilities. Then, strangely, two young girls appear in her class to guide her and help her combat strange monsters in this other world and help her make friends in the real world. Hina, the protagonist, must also stop people's emotions from going rampant and repel huge beasts intent on destroying the world!

The game play is a lot like the games I've mentioned in that you play in the real world and a world where you must battle creatures. The battles are turn based and really easy, I never had any difficulty winning a regular battle. The fights with the huge boss monsters were tougher, but still not that bad. The game could of added more to do in the real world and added more variety to the quests that you must complete throughout the game. You level up usually by hanging out with people and completing tasks and you craft items from stuff you collect in other world. There is no currency and so you do not get to buy anything.

So, it was fun and the story was good; however, I just think they could have had a lot more to do in terms of the regular world. The quests always boiled down to have this item or defeat so many of the same enemy, it would have been nice if they could of changed it up more. The characters are all cutesy and likable and really propel the game forward, though most people are going to know the secret of the sisters way before they finally reveal it.
