Gameplay

As a visual novel, the gameplay in Rose Guns Days is spent on reading the story's narrative and dialogue.[1] The text is accompanied by character sprites over background art made from altering real-world photographs. Throughout gameplay, the player encounters a quick time event minigame of a fist fight battle sequence that resembles a fighting game.[1] The outcome of these minigames does not influence the progression of the story, and the player even has the option to skip them. The minigame has two parts: attack and defense. After the player successfully attacks three times, the player can then perform an overkill attack whose power is determined by the choice of one of six cards. How well the player performs in the minigames determines the total score and emblems awarded, and as the score increases, so does the player's rank, which increases the difficulty of the minigames.[1]

Development and release

Rose Guns Days is 07th Expansion's fourth visual novel series. The scenario is written entirely by Ryukishi07, who also provides some of the character designs, which are divided between three additional artists: Jirō Suzuki, Sōichirō and Yaeko Ninagawa.[2] The music of Rose Guns Days is provided by various music artists including both professionals and dōjin artists including: Dai, Luck Ganriki, Rokugen Alice, M. Zakky and Pre-holder. The first game in the series, titled Season 1, was released on August 11, 2012[3] at Comiket 82 and is playable on Windows PCs. Season 2 was released on December 31, 2012[4] at Comiket 83. Season 3 was released on August 10, 2013 at Comiket 84. The fourth and final game in the series, Last Season, was released on December 31, 2013 at Comiket 85. A version of Season 1 playable on iOS devices was released on November 9, 2012,[1] followed by a version playable on Android devices released on December 13, 2012.[5] All four seasons are also distributed by MangaGamer since February 7, 2014 for explicit use of the English translation patch.[6]
