OASE – Other Age Second Encounter

A weird little dating sim game with surprise depth and quite confusing to proceed.
You got a love machine to summon somone to date your prince.. you got 9 different girls and 1 guy to choose from by using 10 different questions.
lots of funny conversation.. and quite challanging mini games and a lot information to remember.(get your noteped ready).
once you figure out the basic on how this game works.. it's actually quite good.. but to start is difficult.
graphics are quite good. with better music and sound effects.
the lack of achivements made the game kinda slow down since you cannot really track your own progress..
there are 60 endings in all... and a lot really good ending and a lot really funny endings.
7/10 for a weird little dating sim and i will play it once again once it have achievements.(only got 3 girl route figured out).

This game has A LOT of possibilities and outcomes and endings. Even though the game does not say it, it plays a lot like a visual novel, and also feels a lot like it, but it is very interactible and most of your choices modifies the outcomes of the game.
This game has some dungeons that are only accessible with a character and, since the beginning, your choices influence the rest of the game. The puzzles are really god, also, although some can be pretty challenging (I'm looking at you, Mist's Photo Minigame)
This game also has a strong Dating SIM aspect, since it is your job to find a girlfriend in the game. The graphics are actually fine and can be cute and cool looking, even though it may appear strange at first.
Talking about strange, this game is really bizarre. You have some things, like the Dudes, that make the game seem really quirky, but, as the synopsis of the game says, it serves well to mix with the parody aspect of the game, making it actually fun.
For those that like games with a lot of results of dialogue and actions, this game is really for you. It is really a game that can be pretty amazing, especially if you like these mangaesques aspects of the game. You'll probably gonna spend some time in the game, trying to achieve the endings.
I just think that this game should really have some steam achievements, it would be perfect for this game. I mean, if you are reading this, developer, really... your games would be way more worth it with achievements, and also, some players really are into it and consider achievements as a thing to consider when buying games.

NOTE: Before you get this, try Other Age first:
If you really liked Other Age, get this. It has:
* A LOT of girls
* Much better GUI and backgrounds.
* Improved Character design
* A walkthrough to help you out
* Places to explore.
* EASTER EGGS
* and finally, minigames.
The entire plot of this game goes like this:
* The queen gets a letter from some king out of nowhere.
* Said King wants to brag about his daughter going on a date.
* Said Queen takes revenge in her own personal style...by putting her son, the prince, on a date for brag rights.
This game is quite dated, but you can tell how good the quality of this work is, especially the art. It is quirky, it can be confusing. The "puzzle" in the gallery can only be achievable if you attempt to get all the endings. So far I only got some.
If this game is too hard for you, don't worry. the Author has provided a simple game walkthrough in "easy mode". It's the red stop sign at the top right. Use that, and everyone will know how "great" you are at puzzles. :/
Some of the minigames are hard to get through, which is why you'd rather take easy mode, but if you're more of a hardcore puzzle-solver, then take this up. Have I mentioned it has girls.
Would I recommend this? Yes and no. This game is good, and is pack full of content, but it later becomes more and more repetetive. It is however replayable, and the characters Interesting and fun.

It`s a 2010 game and, honestly speaking from today, part of the game sucks. Mainly due to the extreme difficulty, as it`s literally impossible to achieve certain things unless you are REALLY patient or, should I put it, lacks anything better to do. And in some cases, that`s not enough. You HAVE TO be directly hinted by the authors themselves before you end up wondering whether the game is designed to be beatable.
But that`s also to say, the rest of the game is GREAT. If you take it more as an artbook than a mere game, you`ll be surely fascinated. The authors are, so far as I`ve seen, one of the best artists, aesthetically speaking. So long as you`re not in a hurry to "beat" the game, instead just view it as an amazing sightseeing into the world they created, it`s not only great. It`s FANTSATIC.
My first hearing of the game was at some shabby online minigame site around 10 years ago. I played its incorrectly named demo, and immediately got fascinated. At that time online payment was way undeveloped, and I had to send an international bill to purchase, so I did. That`s how I first got the game. The time I spent on this game should be able to match that of a 3A work like Witcher III, and I`ve satisfyingly achieved all 60 endings. That`s really a painful grind, but also a nice and wonderful view into this world the authors created.
This time, I`d like to once more support the authors via Steam. Thank you for the game, and hopefully, just make more and better games!

I have played the prequel (Other Age) of this game in my highschool years, and I liked it despite it being very hard. So I treid OASE when it just came out, but it was even harder(x1000) than the previous one. With no walkthrough available at that time, I had to give up on it.
I recently came accross it again, and this time with the easy mode available it went much better.
This is what I consider as a collecting game, the main purpose is to collect endings. So it is a shame that there is no achievements available.
Some people mentionned there were very long cutscenes (what?!), have you not noticed your keyboard's enter button??
Pros:
- Good collection game
- Beautiful art
- Nice music
- Interesting concept
- Many secret paths/alternative endings
- Press enter to skip, press q to cheat on some of the minigames
Cons:
- No achievements
- Needlessly hard (some mini-games are quite hard, yes I'm talking to you cameraman dude, but with some practice I became a pro lol)
- Pixel hunting (very painful)
- Repetitive (Dude quests are common to all characters with minor variations)
- Some typos, spelling and grammar problems in text
Overall: 7.5/10

Unlike visual novel, this game is more towards dating simulator. Summon girls, bring them to date and get the endings; that's it. I enjoy this game and play it multiple times when i feel bored. It also has fun mini games and puzzle. The character and scene designs are fantastic. However, I would recommend to play the first game; Other Age which is free on website. It gives basic idea of the characters you date and meet. But, as contrast to this game, it is reverse harem.

Pretty fun dating sim if you give it a chance.
