Reception

Tokyo Twilight Ghost Hunters

The original game received "mixed" reviews on both platforms, according to the review aggregation website Metacritic.[6][7] In Japan, however, Famitsu gave the PS3 and Vita versions each a score of 31 out of 40.[9][10]

Hardcore Gamer criticized the lack of explanations for many of the elements of the Vita version, such as the icon-based system for responding to characters, while also praising the character animation.[11]

Erren VanDuine of PlayStation LifeStyle also disliked the lack of in-game explanations, but gave praise in particular to the art style, character animation, backgrounds, story, and the English localization, while criticizing the role-playing segments for being too frustrating and luck-based.[17]

Daybreak Special Gigs

The PlayStation 4 and Vita versions of Daybreak Special Gigs received "mixed" reviews according to Metacritic.[21][22]
