Key information
The global CBT for NC's upcoming subculture RPG 'Astraea Oratio', developed by Dynamis One, runs from the 2nd to the 6th. This test allows players to check out the world and main content on mobile devices ahead of the official launch, exploring characters' personalities and relationships.
The story begins with the unique premise that magistrates administer a Tokyo inhabited by wizards, following a protagonist summoned to the special district bureau. The scenario pack structure reduces combat focus to help players concentrate on the narrative, featuring an 8-episode prologue where dialogue blends world-building and character descriptions.
The reviewer noted that while the unique premise and trendy delivery are compelling, some abstract metaphors and undefined proper nouns make certain parting dialogue difficult to understand instantly. Despite these minor issues requiring extra interpretation, the strong overall narrative succeeds in heightening character appeal.
Following the initial prologue, subsequent scenarios like 'Minato-ku Wizards' Sparkling Days' maintain the reading enjoyment. The title demonstrates competitive storytelling strength for a new subculture game, building anticipation for future developments beyond initial character impressions.
