Historia de Jantei

The swimsuit-clad cast is pure eye candy, but the mahjong itself is surprisingly solid once you get past the fan service. I’ve sunk hours into it and the CD-ROM load times are quick enough that I never get pulled out of the mood.

The CD-quality music really sets the mood during tense mahjong hands. I've spent hours getting to know each character's personality between matches. A solid pickup for anyone into quirky Japanese arcade-style games with a visual novel twist.

The swimsuit-clad cast is exactly as advertised, and the CD-ROM version loads smoothly with those classic PC Engine sound effects. I’ve been playing through the story mode every night this week, and the mix of mahjong strategy with the quirky digital characters keeps it surprisingly fresh.
