FAQ

What is Otome Kitten?

Otome Kitten is a blog site that provides reviews and walkthroughs for English Otome Games that are published in the west. While there’s a variety of otome visual novels that are playable on different platforms, this blog will prioritize releasing content for console otome games (Nintendo Switch, PSVita, and PS4). Please be reminded that Otome Kitten is not a professional review site. This blog is merely a hobby of mine. I am not paid to write these reviews and walkthroughs.

I can’t seem to unlock an ‘Ending’ of this game, can you help me?

My walkthroughs should help you complete a game 100 percent. If you think there’s an error somewhere in these walkthroughs, please let me know through the comments section or through email. If you have followed the guides accordingly and is still missing an Ending, feel free to reach out, and I’ll try my best to help you.

My game crashes a lot of times, can you help me fix it?

Please contact the publishers or developers if you are experiencing game glitches and technical issues.

Where can I buy this game?

The games I review will have a “Buy this Game” button, which will redirect you to the title’s Eshop or PSN page if it’s only available digitally, or to Amazon (NA) if a physical copy is available. Please also keep in mind that the links featured on this website may be paid Amazon affiliate links or advertisements. If you choose to make a purchase through these links, I may earn a small commission. This commission helps support the operation and maintenance of this website.

Where can I download these Nintendo Switch / PS Vita games for free?

These otome games are NOT available for free, and resorting to downloading them from illegal sites is an act of piracy! I strongly encourage everyone to buy the games they wanted to play to support the game developers and publishers.

Can you send me the soundtrack/CG compilation for this game?

No. Please play the games to get their CGs. Some of my reviews have links indicating where I bought a game’s soundtrack (I mostly buy them digitally from iTunes or Amazon Music and physically from CDJapan).

Regarding Route Orders.

It’s been brought to my attention that a few people get extremely angered, triggered and upset, by route orders. Please be reminded that “route orders” are not implemented as a rule to follow; they are only there for those who need them. If a game has a recommended route order by the developers, I always make sure to mention it in my review. If I label the route order as a “soft” recommendation, it merely means it’s a suggestion if you want to start the game with the route that least spoils the story to the ones with the most spoilers. Again, you are not required to follow route orders if you do not want to, plain and simple. There are no rules on how you play games! And I highly encourage everyone to play a game however they want to play it.

Regarding Mature, Sensitive Content and Triggering Factors in Otome Games.

When I review a game with very sensitive content, I will always include a warning either before the review or in my “Overall Thoughts” section, so players can brace themselves on what kind of story they’re getting themselves into. However, I do believe that it is always one’s responsibility to research more about a particular game before diving straight into it. If you get triggered easily with mature, dark, and sensitive content, or if there’s anything that triggers you severely, please make it a habit to do lots of research first, read other reviews from other players, reach out to the community, and be mindful of the content warnings the game developers put out before playing certain routes or games with M (Mature) or A (Adults Only) ESRB rating. I have a very high tolerance when it comes to dark content in fiction, so what’s triggering to others may not be the same for me. If I suggest doing certain endings on guides (which I rarely do), it is mainly for story reasons. Again, Self first! Do not play games with content that makes you uncomfortable.

We are an indie dev, and we’d like you to review our new game.

Thanks for allowing me to check out your game! At this time, I can ONLY commit to reviewing commercial games. I also prioritize playing the ones with themes I can easily get into (I’m a huge fan of horror/thrillers, murder mysteries, and stories with mature & darker plots). If you think your game is up my alley, please don’t hesitate to contact me here or through email. I will not review non-commercial games or demos.

About Press Releases and Collaboration Opportunities.

Please send your game’s press kit/media kit to this email address: info@otomekitten.com. I am open to collaborations (most especially with Chinese and Eastern games).

Will you review other game genres too?

At this time, I focus on reviewing joseimuke games only (Otome and BL Included).

I love your content. Where can I leave a tip?
