When the issues of a game are rolled and stomped by its greatness, then it’s something to invest on if you have some spare.

I was worried Little Witch Academia: Chamber of Time would be a cheap cash grab, but I was wrong. There are some flaws, but the most important aspect — the franchise’s ethos — is fully intact and on full display, making this a game that’s sure to leave fans spellbound

The localized version of Little Witch Academia: Chamber of Time is launched for PlayStation 4 and PC (Steam) recently! The side-scrolling action JRPG was available in Japan since last November, and now Bandai Namco Entertainment Asia is bringing it to the global market. We are pleased to be able to enjoy the game so here is our Little Witch Academia: Chamber of Time review!

Recent anime games, like Dragon Ball FighterZ and Attack on Titan 2,  have done exceedingly well by leaning into their source material, creating unique experiences that revolve around what their respective series are about. Little Witch Academia: Chamber of Time is another game that tries to do just that, and while it succeeds in some areas, it falls flat on its face in others.

Little Witch Academia: Chamber of Time is a heart-pounding 3D action RPG beat ‘em up featuring an original storyline carved from the popular anime series.

Chamber of Time has an exceptional soundtrack and strong voice acting, though certain combat lines get run into the ground very quickly. The orchestral music is gorgeous, and gives off a feeling of wonderment that fits the world of Little Witch Academia quite well. The voice actresses definitely give it their all as well, giving their characters extra layers of personality.

Little Witch Academia: Chamber of Time is heartbreaking. I’m a huge fan of the original anime, and this game does a tremendous job of capturing the heart and personality of that world. Characters look and sound incredible, and getting to explore their school and experience new adventures with them is a blessing. Unfortunately, obtaining that blessing requires a two-mile crawl on your knees through the jagged glass and thorny ivy that is the busted, broken, and simply not fun gameplay of Chamber of Time. Battles are aggravating and exploration is mind-numbing. For as brilliant as the narrative ...

The fanservice (not that kind) Little Witch Academia Chamber of Time provides can be ever-so-pleasing. Unfortunately, it's not enough to excuse a rather dull game.

However, that’s about all the magic that Chamber of Time has to offer. The environments are detailed and beautiful, replete with pops of colour. Unfortunately, navigating them through a haze of lag destroys your enjoyment quite quickly. Pathways are dotted with doors, and the slightest glance in their direction pops you into places that you don’t want to be. On top of that, the bosses are visually extraordinary but mechanically underwhelming. Everything just seems to take too long, especially since the Groundhog metaphor gets taken to extreme levels when you’re forced to relive previous…

Exploring a magic academy and brawling through some 2.5D dungeons should be a fun time, right? Unfortunately, the magic touch seems to have eluded Little Witch Academia: Chamber of Time.

Riddled with extremely tedious design decisions and frustrating technical hiccups, not even a believing heart can save this trainwreck.

Since reading the novels of a certain boy wizard, one of my biggest dreams, or fantasies depending on how you look at it, was to become a wizard in training. Of course as we already know I’m also a huge anime fan, so when a series like Little Witch Academia was introduced to me, combining two of my biggest pleasures, I instantly fell in love with the story and its characters. Once Little Witch Academia: Chamber of Time was announced I’ll admit I was really excited, but as always also nerv...
