Or just hope that Monokid and Monosuke don’t show up to steal your money, which prevents you from buying new weapons and armour. If you want to beat every boss, you sometimes have to rely on luck: having the right cards and unlocking the right skills by using Talent Fragments. Then you have to figure out how best to level your character. Initially, figuring out where to go and where each island boss is can be a pain. Getting multiple stones can take a long time for several reasons. So, if you already got Makoto’s stone while using his R rank card, you won’t get it again if you complete the board with his U rank card. Stones are granted based on the character and not card rank. Your goal with the board game is to take as many characters around it as possible, and, at the end of 50 days (turns), you complete that character’s development and get a stone for them, and ten stones allow you to advance the story. Or there are Card squares that give you cards, like those that let you walk a certain number of squares or others that grant you a temporary buff for the day. You can also fight enemies and level up the good old-fashioned way. You can land on Event squares, which give you a choice of what to do for the rest of your school friends and boost your character’s stats. In this mode, you select a character to level up and take them around the board, beating the boss of each of the five islands. I spent most of my time in Development mode, which is set on a giant board game analogue of Jabberwock Island.

The Monomicoin machine guarantees at least the top-two tiers if you don’t get a Hype Card (a skill-boosting card for your characters) or a gift (a stat-boosting item that’s consumed on use) instead. The three different gacha machines all have different rates, and all of them guarantee different ranks of cards. That means that there’s a random chance to get the character you want. I want to touch on the School Store first because you use an in-game gacha system to unlock characters using these coins.

Playing through both of these nets you Monocoins and Monomicoins, which you can spend in the School Store. The second is Battle mode, a huge tower where you can bring a party of characters to fight in endless RPG battles. Not everyone is present (fans of Ultra Despair Girls and the Danganronpa 3 anime might be a bit disappointed), but at the very least, all of the students from the three main killing games are playable. This allows you to play through a board game with your favourite Danganronpa characters from all four games. First is Development mode, which is the bulk of the game and a hugely-expanded version of Danganronpa V3‘s Ultimate Talent Development Plan. Instead, the students of Hope’s Peak Academy from the three main games and spin-off are going on a virtual vacation to help hone their ‘Ultimate’ talents.Īn anniversary celebration for the series, Danganronpa S has two main modes. But in Danganronpa S: Ultimate Summer Camp, there is no killing game.

These games gained a following not only for their wackiness but for commentary on society and exploration of Hope and Despair.
Kaito danganronpa series#
The Danganronpa series wouldn’t be what it is today - ten years later - without its magenta-splattered marketing, its colourful characters, and its penchant for executing your favourites in the most brutal, heartbreaking ways.
