Moe! Ninja Girls: Visual Novel Reviews

by Xpattinum~

I think this game has a very good story so far but after reaching chapter 4 i decided to give up. This story ticket system was driving me crazy! So there is a story ticket system that you can earn 1 story ticket every 4 hours... 4 HOURS! And each chapter will prob consume about 8 - 12 tickets. Yeah they give you tons of free tickets day 1 and it feels nice getting through chapter 1 and 2 with them. But then you run out of tickets and they throw sales at your face! They heavily throw sales at your face saying .99 and we will give you 100 jewels and a costume for a character that will last like 3 days or something. Well 150 jewels will get you 1 story ticket! If you want 36 story tickets you must fork over $100. No! How about we buy the full seasons for like $15 instead of this story ticket system! I would buy each season for $15 no problem at all but 1 story ticket every 4 hours (20 seconds of reading every 4 hours) is not going to cut it i don't care how good the story is. Hell even if you cant sell seasons how about 1 story ticket every 2 hours. That would be a huge improvement and alot less money hungry!

2 stars!

As far as MoeNinjaGirls goes the story is the most important. The optional mini games and events are just something to show its creativity. I understand that items, costumes, and other forms of currency can be pricy; However us using story tickets to do A PART of a chapter is frustrating.

We have to wait four hours to get one free story ticket back. That would mean that we would have to wait TWENTY HOURS to get the tickets back without us constantly spending money for tickets. As a result, it would take at least 2-3 days to finish a chapter. This strategy makes MoeNinjaGirls more unappealing, but I'm sure it's one of those rubbish, joy killing marketing tactics to make us spend money. It's unreasonable considering the fact that there are usually EIGHT PARTS FOR A SINGLE CHAPTER IN A SEASON. Also, the sad thing is that we can't enjoy mini games without us spending money either.

I highly suggest to either lower the cool down for the free story tickets to 2 hours rather than 4, or give us a max of 8 free story tickets so we can at least finish a chapter and wait 32 hours to get them all back. Next, there should be a FREE mini-game where we can actually earn diamond only, since you know we can only play story every 20 hours... thank you, and I hope MoeNinjaGirls improves over time

I'm pretty addicted to this game! Having extra games to play in between reading the story makes it easier to pass the time in between receiving story tickets...however, the mini games have a cool down period too, unless you want to continually pay in order to play more.
The main issue is waiting four hours to get a free story ticket that only lets you read 20 seconds worth of a chapter, because the ticket prices are so steep that there is no way an average person is going to pay over a dollar a story ticket to read 20 seconds worth of a chapter. That makes reading each chapter take WAY longer than it should.
The game and story itself are great...when you actually get to play it. But, it seems like much of the time is spent waiting for the free story tickets and health for the mini games to rise instead of actually reading the story or playing the game.
The cost of things if you decide to purchase them are definitely way too high compared with what you are actually getting, but the game is well designed and fun.
I enjoy it a lot, but I can't say whether I'll have the continued patience to play it long term, since there is so much time waiting around for tickets and health to be refilled.

I was 1000 diamonds away from being able to afford 36 tickets, so I figured I’d try out the MN points. Luckily, I found an action that gave 1000; The game was Lords Mobile (objective was to attack a lvl 2 monster), I had to do all the basic to pre complex things, focus all my resources on researching monster hunt II (required for the 1000 MN points), speed anything up with the free gems given to me, and then finally attack the monster. I get annihilated, if you’re curious. Got the MN points though.

I’m not sure if I should be proud that it only took me a day and a half. My point is, was it worth it? Definitely. The game’s nice, but, it’s a bit tedious to have to do all sorts of things for tickets without having to pay actual money :/ the game basically spoon feeds you with all sorts of rewards including diamonds, but it feels like you’re being forced to buy in game items just to be able to play the story, which basically makes those rewards seem like allowance.

by RavenCloack13

Cheesy, dumb and fun writing. Only real complaint is the need for so much gems to complete stuff but I probably could mitigate that by just playing for more of the coins to be fair. Though it does give a nice pace for the amount of reading you can do which in of itself is a good thing. I have no earthy idea how I’m supposed to win the arena battles or what specifically makes a unit better then another. Also wish they didn’t need to censor things unnecessarily. It’s clearly supposed to be 18+ game and the wet t-shirt showing bras isn’t that bad in terms of sexually explicit content considering other costumes in-game.

Unless you really want to pay for it, your not getting through to catch up with the newest story season though.

Not bad overall and haven’t felt my time has been wasted. Easy to pick up and actually overall don’t feel the need to pay money for what I want out of MoeNinjaGirls being the character stories as I don’t really see a “pay 2 win” aspect to this game and more “pay 2 do things faster”.

by Bubinininin

Great game I love it, beautiful style, beautiful art, the game just looks amazing. I love anime and this got me hooked right away. It's just the "ticket" per scene. People who don't have the game it's basically you have this things called story tickets and use them to read the scenes in the chapters, but one scene could be like 2 min long which is upsetting, you have to wait 4 hours to get 1 ticket and can only hold 5. So it'll take a whole day to get 5 tickets that'll only take like 10 min to use cause the scenes are short. So if there was a way to get tickets faster or ways to earn them it would be a lot better. But it's obvious you guys only want money cause every time you get on the game there's some deal and it's always telling you to buy something. Even if you spent 50$ it wouldn't get you nowhere cause of how short the scenes are and how many you need to get to finish own chapter. I had to delete because it was ridiculous how money hungry you guys were and how long it takes to just finish one chapter.

Pro -
Legendary story line
Fun to read
Dramatic moments
Funny moments
Makes the story interesting
It’s very intriguing or easy to get hooked
Cool mini games
Cons-
There’s only really one but it really affects the story.
It makes you wait so darn long just to get ONE story ticket. Like seriously it’s not an hour wait it’s 4 hours wait. Like 6 story tickets a day if you even stay up that late. Man it really just takes me for a ride cuz I’m just trynna watch what happens next but it keeps just throwing 4 hour long waits and in order to buy more I have to spend over .99 cents just for ONE story ticket, ONE! I don’t know about you guys but that’s pretty over priced just to get stuck in another cliff hanger just, no. I might sound a little rude and truly I am sorry I just can’t hold back how much the game is so good but it just makes me wait so darn long just for a story that might give me a unsatisfying cliffhanger.

But to close it of correctly if you want a good story and time doesn’t bother you I truly recommend this my advice if they see it is to make the the price for a story ticket cheaper and the time for a story ticket to be at most 2 and a half hours because we will get about 8 story tickets per day which means basically a chapter per day which is way more satisfying than waiting’s week to finish a chapter. Over all I really love the game and you should totally try it out

by MyFirstReviewSorry

I really like the game, don’t get me wrong on that but I hate the fact that it takes four hours to get one ticket. The ticket is basically the only way to read the story, but when you waste all your tickets, what do you have left? That’s right, either your diamonds that you can use to buy tickets, or the main screen, where you can also do the ninja fights. The ninja fights is fun too, but there’s not much action. You basically tap fight, some slashes, and then it’s over. You lose 20 power and so when you only have 10 left, you can’t play since you require 20 power to play. So, there’s only the customize, events, and the albums. There’s also those stories from events, but I don’t really have them. So now you have nothing. I really liked how we were able to play season one without wasting tickets, I don’t know if it was an event, or just something for beginners, but it really made me like the game, the story was entertaining, I wanted to read more! But now, with barely any tickets, I have to wait four hours to read one part. Please lower the time you have to wait for a ticket, or at least more tickets per hour? Everything else is great like I described, but I believe that the tickets is the only problem.

Never really get into the novel games but this one is amazing it's funny has a great story so far finished the chapter 5 I seriously can't wait for the next chapter kept me wanting more already I don't mind the whole check point parts in the chapter but it is pricy an we don't win that much money in the ninja fights an the gems are pricy too another thing is that I don't see why we need to keep going thru the check points when we finish obtaining all the pictures for the chapters it's just a waste of money an it will eventually make me not want to read the chapters again I don't mind paying for gems but I just don't want to waste them if I already got everything for a chapter I completed already but those are the only real issues with the game would give it a five star if you could fix those issues or at least just the part where we don't have to pass a paying check point after we already done it

by AznKayos

It has a nice foundation regarding the story. The ninja fights are simple to kill time, but I have two problems that are similar to everyone else’s. One, the ticket system. It takes you about 20 hours to get all of your tickets back which is 1 ticket every hour leading up to 5. At that point I usually feel just a slight bit dry on the story seeing as I had to wait that long. If it was a faster system I would not mind at all. Second, the micro transactions/Jewels. You can basically get premium endings by spending the in game currency known as Jewels, but they are hard to obtain through normal circumstances. I had to put in money just to get the premium episode even though it should be easier to get Jewels. 550 Jewels is around $5 and 550 Jewels is around 5 story tickets which is half of 1 Chapter! 1! Maybe a full version that I could buy would be nice instead of spending more money than worth. The story has a nice touch and the artwork plus story is astounding so I do not mind those parts. Overall it’s a pretty good visual novel

by Tyl47

The game is fun to play with a great story. The only problem with it is the wait time. To continue you must have story tickets. The marketplace for them the gems to real world currency to tickets exchange is really messed up. You’d have to spend a small fortune just to continue. On the other hand if you don’t spend money you have to wait 4 hours just to move forward one spot in the story.

While I agree having wait times for a game like this is good I’d recommend changing it slightly to improve how consumers feel while experiencing the game. For example, bring the wait time from 4 hours down to 2 hours per ticket. An add in a system where players who have spent a certain benchmark of real world currency in the game have to wait for less time. So, spend $5 and have to wait 1.5 hours. Spend $20 and you only have to wait 1 hour.

Doing this would create a better customer experience as well as encourage more players to spend money on the game because of a higher payoff.

Those two things holding it back are the ticket system and the micro transactions. Current ticket system takes way too long for free tickets to reset. 4 hrs, I mean seriously. I can understand 1-1/2 hrs or even 2hrs per ticket. But 4 hrs per ticket. For being the main component in order to read the story, I think it needs a rework. Also, for events and story progression, it’s cost a buttload of in-game currency to progress. The game forces you to buy more in-game currency just for you to catch up for events before they end, which seems to be the norm today. Should also have a rework in what the game gives you in in-game currency. Instead of getting a merely 50 or 100 diamonds, the further you get into the story or event, the more diamonds you should receive. For example, for this Ricka b-day event, make it 50 to start off and as you go, increase it by 50 each time you hit that mark. Same goes for story progression. If those two issues were to be addressed, then it would make it easier for those not invested in buying micro transactions easier to catch up with the events and stories just like someone who is willing to spend money on micro transactions. Hopefully, the devs read this and take it to heart.

For once the artwork in storyline is not the problem. In my personal opinion what kills this game is it’s ticket system and its lack of a real battle system that kind of makes it just not worth spending a bunch of money on if you can’t really do much.

I am more of a MMORPG person that enjoys watching a battle and being able to do all sorts of damage and stuff and I feel if you’re talking about ninjas you might as will have some real fights in there. Our protagonist doesn’t do jack diddly... A car is cute as hell but at least show me that she has a sword and her and her something you know this about ninjas right?

The girls are pretty cute they do kind of remind me of being in a private or military school environment but unfortunately for most of us people that actually play this at life is not like that and you’re more looking at it for the booby‘s n stuff and I would strongly suggest if you’re looking for that go buy some real porn it just does a better job

by ChaosTwin

First off, I’d like to open with the fact that this game is wonderfully cute, and it really captures the essence of a dating-sim-style visual novel. The entirety of the story feels genuinely written, and I could see this slated as a legitimate anime.
However, that being said, the major flaw in this game is the story ticket system. As I’m sure you’ll see in most of the other reviews here, it takes a ridiculous amount of time (4 hours!) for a single ticket. Now I might understand if it nets a decent amount of the storytelling, but instead, it delivers half or sometimes even a third or less of a scene. The alternative is to spend gems to purchase story tickets at 150 gems apiece, which nets to approximately $1.50 per clip. At that rate, I’d much rather just pay $20 for full access to the story, and not have to worry about the absurd rates for tickets at all.
Despite my dislike of the ticket system, I do thoroughly enjoy this game.
Tl;Dr - Good story, but it’s pushing too hard for microtransactions.

So the story is one of the best I've seen in a choose your own adventure app. I grew up on the book versions so I was very surprised to find an app game like this. The character cast is charming in their own ways. The decisions you make are hilariously funny and meaningful depending on which girl you are pursuing.

However be prepared to spend a lot of your own cash unlocking the story. They have options where you can earn diamonds (which you need to buy story tickets with) for free but it takes too long and to get a decent amount you have to either do a bunch of surveys or get another app game and level to a certain level.

Also each chapter has 8 parts. Each part needs a ticket to move along the story. Furthermore each season has about 10 chapters and a finale ending depending on your affection level with the girl you're pursuing. Add that up and that's a ton of story tickets you need for a season meaning a lot of cash you have to shell out. You get a free story ticket every 4 hours and you can hold a max of 5 at anytime. I wish the devs would modify that to 2 hours and make the max carry number 8 so someone could at least get close to clearing a chapter. That would be useful.

All in all it's a great app. I like it.

This game was so much fun (and I have only had it for a day) The story was funny, enveloping, and a little bit of cringe in there, but that made story even better. Honestly I can’t wait to see more. The only problem is I have is first, the network kind of is spotty but that just might be my own Wi-Fi not working Second, some of the things don’t really make sense at first but then you kind of get the hang of it. And last is that you have to pay a lot of gems for things premium in the story I understand that you have to give something to get something better like in any other game but I wish you didn’t only have to pay in gems and that the amount wasn’t so much. Otherwise the game was amazing, super fun to play, and kind of addictive. Hope you have as much fun as I did. Ps Akira is best girl. :)

It's strange but I've come to like all the characters in a short time. Which may well have been vital to my enjoyment of Moe Ninja Girls.
This game like many on MoeNinjaGirls Store makes liberal use of a energy system which forces you to put the game down after a while and encourages you to pick it back up after some time has passed. When done right this can make a game a part of your daily routine you look forward to, when excessively exploited it can ruin an otherwise enjoyable experience. The difference between the two tends to come down to personal tolerance so it may vary from person to person.

In short like with most games it comes down to personal taste and while I find this game a treat because of its lively cast and it's refreshingly opinionated protagonist, I am well aware that anime troupes and energy systems are an acquired taste.

by SimpleeSharp

THIS IS THE BEST STORYLINE EVER!!! I love love love love love love love love this game and I its so addicting and when every I run out of tickets I try to find how to get more tickets because I need to see the entire thing! Also I have and idea: you can keep the tickets and add more seasons and make it five 10 tickets per season. And also it would be cool if you turn this into an in-game movie by taking all the chapters in every season and getting some people too do the voices and then animate rye whole thing and that should be unlocked after you finish all the seasons, or you could buy it for $5.00 I would love that so much. thank you so much for making this legendary game and please consider these ideas and keep making games like this

ps
You could also make the movie on another app probably and I’d be your first download
(My favorite character is Enju😜😉👍)

by Unision Fan

When I first found this game I thought of it as one of those Ninja Girls battle simulator but when I played through one story I knew that this game was going to be an exciting adventure. Seriously, pretty much an endless story with a lot of unique and fantastic characters! The humor, quality, and the story is the best I’ve ever seen in a story based game! I enjoy playing through with a lot of these characters because of how different apart they are. Always new surprises! Always was a fan of Ricka and Tengge and the choice was tough when I had to choose one of them.. Anyway, excellent game. It brings me happiness and excitement to come back every day and play through these amazing stories. I really do wish my life could be like this but since this game is around me I have that life right there. Thanks for this amazing experience!

P.S. It is a pain to refresh the free tickets but, you always gotta stop somewhere!

by Finallyssjgokucomes

I extremely love playing this game where we the protagonist gets to make our own decisions and choose who we want our good ending for everything about the game I love I have no problems with it at all... besides the story tickets if we're only gonna get 5 daily tickets which you get each one every 4 hours I would never stop playing this game if it wouldn't take so long to get more tickets. You can do things like surveys to get points for jewels but I want better options to get points like installing and game and not needed to do long not working surveys but literally everything else in the game besides Ticket management is awesome and great I just don't want to wait so long for 1 Ticket. Like every 4 hours you get 5 daily tickets or something I don't wanna wait so long for 1 Ticket and when your going through the story it goes by quickly for 1 part so you'd be spending so many tickets before u get to any great part although every part in my opinion is great and interesting I suggest installing this game!

All I can say is, what an amazing dating simulator. It’s charming, funny, and the characters are the best I’ve seen in a long while. I just recently completed Season 1 (of about 10 right now, with more on the way), and after Akari’s ending all I can do is smile. It instills a good feeling all around that a game hasn’t given me in a very long time. One feature I greatly appreciate is the choose your ending one. It makes sure that even if you didn’t make all the right choices, you still get the sweet ending with whichever girl you want from the season. It costs jewels, but after some swift ninja fight battles, I had enough to get what I wanted. This game is responsible for a lot of joy that I’ve had recently. My only regret is not having more story tickets so complete each chapter in one sitting. That is literally my only complaint, and a minor one at that. To the game devs, thank you for creating such a fun, clever, affectionate dating sim that had me laughing, tearing up, and enjoying the ride the entire time I played it. Thanks for giving me a little extra joy in my life.
