Tengoku Struggle -Strayside- is yet another great example of otome game. With a unique ambientation, filled with charismatic characters and a lively art direction, this is a very fun title worth checking out.

Tengoku Struggle -Strayside-Tengoku Struggle -Strayside- has all the elements that I love in an Otome game. An interesting world, good LI’s (Love interests) with some spicy scenes and a good story. I would recommend picking this up and just enjoying the journey.
