    XBlaze Code: Embryo is a visual novel at heart, so expect very little in the way of traditional gameplay. You can alter the fate of the story by reading different in-game articles, but while the system that the title employs is unique, it's also far too ambiguous. All in all, you're left with a visually appealing visual novel that doesn't really have a strong enough protagonist to carry it.

    Friendly to BlazBlue lovers and newcomers alike, XBlaze is a beautifully crafted visual novel with a unique (though trope-filled) story and a clever path system. Unless you're offended by a little fanservice or the lack of combat, you'd be hard pressed to find a reason NOT to pick this one up.
