The 10th anniversary work was staged
As the 10th anniversary of Alcot, "Lucky Grass Pact" released in 2014 naturally has a special status in the hearts of fans and scrapped GALGAME fans. Commemorative significance, emotional blessing these relatively emotional factors let's not talk about for the time being, in the final analysis, the quality of the work itself is very good, although no dimension is particularly outstanding, but the victory in the overall balance without shortcomings can be called "little hexagonal warrior" (?) ), this is already quite precious.
Therefore, it was good in terms of word of mouth and presumed sales that year, and there were more than 900 copies of this work in the criticism space, which was considered a popular work, and the central value of the evaluation was maintained at 80 points, crossing the threshold of excellent works. At the same time, he won the gold award for character design at the Moe Game Awards that year, and also won a good result in the Pretty Girl Game Awards held by Getchu. Later, Alcot made "Lucky Grass's Convention PLUS" based on the original version in 2014, and the PLUS version launched in 2016 added E-mote dynamic standing drawing and CG or something, and the most important thing is to integrate the H-scene benefits of the original limited bonus, which can be said to be a relatively complete version.
The Chinese version released by HIKARI FIELD is based on the PLUS version, and it has been upgraded on the basis of it, well, the biggest evolution is the increase in the graphics to 1080P resolution, and the additional content that everyone is looking forward to is of course needless to say, this very sincere move alone is enough to convince new players and old fans to choose to buy. And the quality of localized translations is as good as ever, and it is worth mentioning that this time they have released it in conjunction with NekoNyan, so English has been added to the language side.
As for the national pricing of 78 yuan, it is also in the range we are familiar with, and there is a 20% discount in the first week, that is, 62.4 yuan, which is quite acceptable.
The charm of art is highlighted by people
The original art part of "Lucky Grass Convention" is shared by four teachers, Yushi Ninmura, Yushi Narumi, ちこたむ, and あおなまさお, all of whom are the main artists of the Alcot Society, and we can see these familiar names in many works. Several collaborations are not one or two works, of course, the combination is relatively random, and there is no specific who and whom. Among them, the most familiar must be Ninmura Yushi-sensei, who has participated in most of the works of the Alcot Club, in addition to light novel illustration, anime pictures and other fields can also see his active figure, the more well-known ACG work is "The Sword Dance of the Elf Messenger", I think everyone should have heard of it even if you haven't seen it.
The teacher is known for her gentle beautiful girl painting style and loli painting style, and every female character created is basically the ideal type for everyone! Of course, this work is completed by 4 teachers after all, so it is difficult to distinguish who is responsible for which character or which part, it can only be said that the teachers' performance is very good, well, of course, this also proves that the style of this work is very well integrated. In short, both the heroines and other female characters who appear have shown their charm well, and their appearance is mainly distinguished by hairstyle, pupil color, etc., and school uniforms and regular clothes are also very bright.
Correspondingly, the character should be weak and lively, and the attributes are quite changeable. After the E-mote system moved, the micro-expression doubled the cuteness. Even the male characters can be said to be remarkable, which plays a good role in regulating the atmosphere. The UI part is a simple style, the main interface is hidden, there is a small missing corner icon in the lower right corner, move the mouse over to display the complete function menu, archive and read files and everything has the function. However, the dialogue text box is a little rudimentary, but its sense of existence is still relatively weak, so it has no effect.
A story made of bonds
"The Pact of Lucky Grass" is actually very clear in the story line, the male protagonist Yuto was abandoned by his parents and grew up in a welfare facility in the United Kingdom, and was later adopted by Yoshitomi Takakura and came to Japan. Well, since then, there have been more twin stepsisters Xingling and Xingli, in addition to the two sisters of Biru and Guangyu, as well as Yan and Quan, so the six-person harem group has been initially formed when they were young, and it can only be said that the male protagonist is one of the earliest male protagonists I have seen (?) ）。
The relationship established since then has continued to the present ten years later, and it has become more and more mellow. With the return of Biru and Guangyu, the emotional line had to be pushed and sublimated in a clear direction. The girls around me are all hungry for my excellent brother's body, and they all want to give my good brother a hug, so this time it's time to make a choice, who will spend the rest of their lives together?
Although there is nothing unexpected in the plot, the whole process is that we choose the right person, and then sweetly confirm the relationship, and then happily sprinkle dog food or something, which is essentially a very typical scrap style. But the heroines are too attractive, especially if they often buy one get one free, and the experience is excellent.
For example, the two sisters of Baruo and Guangyi, we first took the routine of continuing the agreement and confirmed the relationship with Baru, and then Guangru's sister-in-law was often inseparable from her sister, so it involved the relationship between the two, and our brother-in-law was gradually getting closer, and finally came to the moment to show her heart. And this work is also really not playing any Asura field, Biru's feelings for Yuren and her sister made her detect the state very early, and easily accepted this fact.
Since then, the three of them have lived happily together, which is a complete natural feeling. The same is true of other lines, whether it is sisters or friends, the style displayed is heart-pounding, and the five lines can't be stopped after pushing in one go.
The difficulty of choosing is not high, as you like
On the gameplay side, "Lucky Grass's Convention" is considered traditional, and there is no whole bell and whistle substantive innovation or form innovation, but it still honestly follows the classic mode of choosing limbs to determine the route. And the selection limb of this work does not give the player the intensity of the whole point, which is relatively simple. Except for the kind where pure benefits are determined by your personal XP (?) ), the tendency of specific options will be very obvious, you will never choose wrong as long as you know a little about the plot, and there are not many of them.
The commitment corresponds to the Biru and Guangyu lines, and the family more importantly corresponds to the two sisters of Suzu and Li, and the personal lines of the two are further distinguished by the option of playing and learning, and one movement and one silence are exactly the character portrayal of the two people. As for choosing friends, it is more important to lead to Yan and Quan, these two will also be determined by the subsequent options which line route, well, "protective" and "side by side" needless to say, the two girls give people a very different feeling.
As for the order of the five routes, it doesn't matter, anyway, each line conveys sincere emotions, and each girl has a particularly beautiful side, which really satisfies all the player's sustenance for the other half and all the imagination of a happy life. So you can follow your heart and choose whose route you like. Personally, I still think that commitment is the most important, and what is more valuable is that the other party always remembers the promise, so it is even more impossible to live up to this intention.
So the first ones were the Baja and the Light Line, well, they all became my wings, which was really great and great. And after that, based on personal XP, he took the route of Yan, and the pink hair with a weak appearance regardless of whether the cut was black (?) are what moves me the most. Of course, as far as this work is concerned, Yan is really too perfect for people to refuse at all. The other three are very casual, it is worth mentioning that Izumi Line also buys one and gets one free, and Mizuho girls are also cute.
It's worth experiencing and expecting more
In terms of the quality of the work, "The Promise of Lucky Grass" is still very satisfying even today, almost 10 years later. The introduction of the concept of "Gemini" to allow the heroines to appear in pairs will undoubtedly increase the excitement of the player throughout the process (?). ), which adds a lot of color to the daily life of the waste. And the story itself follows the royal road line, there will not be any big twists and turns from beginning to end, in short, all female protagonists like our male protagonists, all players need to do is follow their inner thoughts and pick out the person or combination who spends the rest of their lives with (?). That's it.
It's just a pity that this work has doubled, but it still hasn't broken through the realm and reached the level of the ultimate crystal palace, and I personally still have a little regret. BUT ASIDE FROM THIS SENSELESS THOUGHT OF THE XP LAYER, THIS WORK IS REALLY VERY GOOD ON THE PURE LOVE GALGAME TRACK, IN FACT, IT IS DIFFICULT TO SEE SUCH A PURE WORK NOW, IT IS STILL WORTH EXPERIENCING. And after the experience, it is easy to be infected by the beautiful emotions conveyed, just as the so-called "you just care about being a good person, God has its own arrangements", and I hope that this luck can be passed on to you and me in front of the screen, everyone work hard and take life seriously, maybe the red line of fate has already been drawn, but the time has not yet come.
Of course, I also hope that the sales of the Chinese edition of "Lucky Grass Pact" can meet the expectations of HIKARI FIELD and Alcot Society, and promote the Chinese of more works in the future. I am looking forward to another classic work of Alcot Club, "Lord General", which combines beautiful girl themes and historical themes to carry out a certain degree of overhead interpretation, which is still very interesting. In addition, time really flies so fast, although many students have just finished experiencing the 10th anniversary of "The Promise of Lucky Grass", the 20th anniversary of Alcot Club is also close at hand.
Although they have the idea of planning a new game, at a time when the Japanese GALGAME market is so sluggish, I don't know if it can be realized in the end, and what our players can do is also look forward to it with hope.
Overall rating: 8.5/10
