Character models are finely detailed, which is evident by any screenshot. It is no shock that this game is gorgeous. The casino on the other hand remains interesting and fun, although only slightly enhanced from previous versions. They quickly dissolve into ways to earn money or XP. Outside of the casino I never found myself actually enjoying them for more than a few attempts. The mini-games are simple and focus on the “assets” of the women. Each girl has likes and dislikes, and earning their friendship becomes a sort of metagame in and of itself. Each day they can partner up with other characters, play mini-games with or against them, and send them gifts. Much like previous games, Fortune tasks players with picking a girl, then spending a set amount of days on Zack Island.
Yes, it made a grown man uncomfortable, not because of the content, but because I had no good explanation of what I was even playing, or why it was supposed to be fun. The playful nature comes across creepy in more ways than others, and I was definitely hesitant about letting my wife see me play this game. The whole hook is that players spend time playing limited mini-games in order to earn money and XP to buy new swimsuits. This is a swimsuit-collection-simulator with an optional (read: suggested) gravure mode. Let’s be frank though, this game knows exactly what it is, and after spending some “quality” time vacationing on Zack Island, I can safely say this is much more about style, than substance.ĭoAX3 is certainly all about the ladies. Mostly due to the fact that the developers opted not to release it in the US over concerns of how it portrays women. Dead or Alive Xtreme 3: Fortune is easily one of the most talked about games released in 2016. One of those is that Team Ninja is going to keep making dress-up simulators, whether it is in fighting game, or in vacation simulation form. There are a lot of certainties in this world.
