Bidding for Love [REVIEW]

Bidding for Love is a free English otome game available for iPhone and Android users, published by Arithmetic Co. It is a Japanese company that recently translate more English otome games to target on foreign market. Their artworks are beautiful and stories are interesting. However, there is no album for CGs but attractive images will appear along the story.

Prologue:

You're working as a secretary and got involved in an unknown auction. Somehow, you became a sale item and people wore masks start to place bid on you. The last bid is 600 million dollars. With that, you are bound to the man who bought you. Since then, your life has changed... Will there be love or just slavery?

Gameplay:

There are 11 chapters in the main story, many special scenes, and 2 types of ending. You'll be given 5 scenario tickets everyday which allows you to read the scene of each chapter. Once used up, you can either wait till the next day or use Platinums to purchase. You'll need to login consecutively, on every 7th day, you'll get 500 LOVE points in which you can exchange for clothing with the LOVE Capsule. You can make friends with other players and 'dress up' to gain 20 LOVE points. 

For special or event gachas, you'll need GachaTickets to spin. The clothing will help to increase your affection level. Basically, in this game, you'll need a lot of Platinums which require you to buy with real cash. You can earn it for free by completing some offers. With Platinums, you can buy many items or clothing from the shop and unlock special scenes or get the ending you want in the main story. 

Your affection level rises according to the choices you make in the story and it is unknown how many points you get until the next scene. The choice adds either 1, 3 or 5 points to your affection. It is recommended to get as much 5 points as possible to get Happy Ending. 

Normal Ending - Affection level 169 & less, normal epilogue CG shown.

Happy Ending - Affection level 170 & more, sweet epilogue CG shown.

Right now, there are 3 characters you can date:

Although the game is kinda restrictive, the story is very seductive and exciting. Each character has his charm and you'll experience intimacy from him~ Don't shy away from this game, really worthwhile to read their stories. Look forward to their walkthroughs & attractive images will be updated on my Tumblr~
