Can’t sign in
I actually really like playing this game, but after the recent most update I can’t sign in anymore. My account is linked to an Apple ID, and it gives me a error code every time I try to sign in. Haven’t been able to play in weeks. I don’t know what changed in the latest patch, but it’s completely broken the ways to sign in via Google or Apple ID on IOS. If this gets fixed, I’ll change this review and happily start playing again. Otherwise, it’s a waste of space unless I want to create a new account and start over from scratch…

The great game!
I think this is a great game! I like the characters and personalities in it. But at the same time, I also have a small request, is it possible to update some Austro-Hungarian ships? To be honest, with the performance of the Austrian navy, I am a little shined to say this request. But I just prefer Austria and want to see some its boats. Of course, because I don't know if you will continue to update other countries, I'm just talking about it.thanks!

Too many crashes
I have full 5g WiFi and the game still says that I my connection is bad I won’t be playing this game until the issue is fixed
Can’t play
Upon installation received remote data failure and crashes.
Beware
This is a solid game with the potential to be quite good. It improves on AL in both depth of simulation and maturity of writing and characterization. Be aware, though, that it involves players on Discord LARPing as naval commanders and strategists and that the decisions made on Discord will become canon in *your* supposedly single-player game, no matter how much you disagree with them. Recent events brought about the destruction of an American naval icon due to poor decision making on Discord, and you, despite being an individual playing a SP game, cannot opt out.

Pretty good so far
Tutorial sucked and was too short. The voice acting is fantastic and I love the native languages, the design of the girls is phenomenal. The gameplay is simple but surprisingly deep, but still leaves a lot to be desired.
For the struggles this game went through to get here I’m pretty happy with it, would recommend it!

I find it enjoyable, however
Victory belles is to Me a enjoyable title, with wonderfully designed 'Belles' as the Shipgirls are called in-game and the nationality-based voice acting (when present) is wonderful done (and evidently directed) not to mention that every belle has a short Paragraph summarising the highlights of Her career and even Her ultimate fate,
However I can see the...um 'Gameplay' loop being a solid turn off for a-lot of players as it in effects boils down to 'equip/repair belles, go into battle, tap the connected circle You want Your fleet to go and if they find a enemy fleet You just watch little circles of the Shipgirls of both fleets shoot at each other.' And that's it, it's good if Your doing something else as well but not much else.

Needs info!!!
The basic premise is there. The lack of information is fatal! This game is decent in that department everything else is good. Just the lack of information provided to the player in regards to unit and enemy compositions is atrocious. I’m level 15HQ with level 30Belles and they are dying on a level 10 mission, sometimes they die on a level 5 mission. There is no info on how or what to do to disperse damage. More often then not the enemy just focus fires one belle and it just melts in the first round. Why are you shooting at a destroyer that’s barely detected assuming that’s what the arrows mean. Why not my battleship? It’s got the armor to tank! Why am I fighting enemy carriers when I barely unlocked a single cruiser.
Repairs are expensive and random! To repair 2 hp on one ship costs the same to repair 10k on another. I first though it was based on max HP, but no. Some ships with a high HP total are super cheap to repair!
Artwork and voices are great. Battles are not enjoyable.

Response from developer
Hello Lufialunar, Thank you for giving us a try. We would love to know your fleet setup for the level 10 campaign which your level 30 belles lost. Perhaps it is a bug we can reproduce and fix. Repair time can inflate due to critical damage (not just HP) and your feedback will ensure that we better display this info to players in the future. Anyways, we have lots of improvements planned thanks to feedback from the community and hope that you give us another chance in the future. Regards, Black Chicken Studios
The best ship-girl game
I know, I know. I looks like Kancolle. But under the Kancolle shell is a dedicated team who did not want a cash grab. They wanted a simulator game. Under the portraits and numbers popping is one of the most detailed naval battle sims of any game on the market, comparable to games like Rule The Waves. Under the cover of this book is a compilation of hundreds of thousands of words of story content giving each Belle a unique and often incredibly interesting personality. To bring that personality to life, they’re all voiced in their native languages. None of that silly “USS Iowa speaks the Yankii version of Japanese” stuff. I waited 7 years for this game, and it delivers everything it promised to be. Thanks for not being Star Citizen.

Particular and Engaging
Though it may look like Kancolle and it certainly draws its inspirations from it, unlike the former, this game takes full advantage of a balanced approach towards history. I’ve always taken very serious problems with the revisionism and self pity Kancolle takes with itself in a sort of defense of Japanese actions in the second world war that goes so far as to model the abyssal fleets as representative of the USN and her moves during the war. This game, however, takes a stand in how its factions are conniving and while trying to defend against an extraterrestrial invasion, still self serving. There are Belles with political allegiances that as a modern viewer one would find problematic, but contextually make the world feel truly alive—there is no magical disappearing of less desirable leadership in countries like Germany, morally speaking, you can play the bad guys; however, the devs have given the players the power to shape the world around us, as we play these nations we may see opportunities for a change in leadership as situations either brighten or fall apart!
