  • Enjoyable port of Aooni 2 with improved controls and removal of ads compared to the mobile version.
  • Additional Seaside School scenario adds new story content and a new boss, providing more gameplay variety.
  • Achievement hunting and secret endings provide extra challenge and replay value for fans of the series.
  • Excessive and frequent random chase sequences disrupt pacing and reduce game enjoyment.
  • Lack of alternative character scenarios from the mobile version reduces content depth and variety.
  • Poor visual presentation with low-quality, heavily compressed art assets and animation glitches harm overall experience.

  • story

    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    38% positive mentions, 24% neutral mentions, 38% negative mentions

    The story largely mirrors the original Ao Oni, introducing a new character, "teacher," who receives minimal development and limited screen time. Additional content like the Seaside School extra story and secret endings explore side characters and hint at future plot connections, though some players find these elements underwhelming or poorly integrated. Overall, fans of the series may appreciate the continuation and expanded scenarios, but the story execution lacks depth and fresh appeal.

    • “Seaside School is the extra story we get like we did for Ai in the first Aooni. This explores more of Ai's story and showcases a new boss oni!”
    • “If you were able to get all of Ai's items, an extra cutscene will play after the credits of Ai summoning the Kraken Oni and sinking a ship in the distance. Maybe this is the plot linkage between Aooni 3 as you start on a boat in that game?”
    • “I used to play this game years ago on mobile. Good to see it ported to PC with higher resolution and advanced mechanics. Although we didn't get any scenarios like on mobile (which I loved), at least we got a unique scenario. I'm excited to play it after finishing the main storyline. My hopes always spiked after Blueberry Onsen. I wish they bring back the original scenarios on Aooni 3. Overall, a good game if you are an Aooni enjoyer; you would enjoy this on the big screen.”
    • “And what was the point of that new story?”
    • “But the way it's being handled, both in gameplay and in story, is not to my taste at all.”
    • “The story and gameplay is pretty much exactly like the original Aooni but this time with a new character known as "teacher" who followed the main cast into the abandoned school, though she doesn't really do much. You see her a grand total of about 5 times, which kind of sucks since you only get to see some minor development of her character in the secret ending of the main story.”

    The gameplay remains largely unchanged from the original, offering a familiar experience that some find bland or unrefined, with minimal character interaction and few notable improvements. While the core mechanics are serviceable, several entries in the series have been criticized for poor design, repetitive puzzles, and lackluster execution, making the gameplay feel underwhelming to many players. However, fans of the series may still appreciate the PC port's enhanced visuals and new scenarios.

    • “The story and gameplay are pretty much exactly like the original Aooni but this time with a new character known as 'teacher' who follows the main cast into the abandoned school. Although she doesn't do much and appears only about five times, there is some minor development of her character in the secret ending of the main story.”
    • “Unlike the mobile port of Aooni 2, there are no cosmetic changes to your oni, which is perfectly fine since they were just filler/cosmetic elements for the mobile version. The blue coins currency to get skins could only be obtained via ads or sharing gameplay, which Steam does not allow according to their terms of service.”
    • “The gameplay is generally fine, though not exceptionally exciting.”
    • “The Steam releases for the Aooni series have been dreadful; Aooni (2024) was a subpar remake based on a less subpar Japanese-exclusive mobile remake that buffed random chases to the point where the experience was noticeably worse than Noprops' original incarnation. The horror of Blueberry Onsen exacerbated the random chase issue so certain areas in the game feel cheap. Absolute Fear was a bland experience with monotonous puzzles and very little actual substance. Slit Mouth Woman ended up being the only Aooni product I've ever refunded as its presentation was terrible and its gameplay was somehow worse. Forbidden Ground, despite being a welcome shift in gameplay, was slow, uninteresting, and plagued with various AI-generated assets that made the game feel hacked together with little purpose or thought.”
    • “But the way it's being handled, both in gameplay and in story, is not to my taste at all.”
    • “The story and gameplay are pretty much exactly like the original Aooni but this time with a new character known as "teacher" who followed the main cast into the abandoned school, though she doesn't really do much. You see her a grand total of about 5 times if I recall, which kind of sucks since you only get to see some minor development of her character in the secret ending of the main story.”

    The game's graphics include detailed sprite work with some leftovers from the original artwork, showing careful redrawing efforts. Despite occasional oddities, such as armless sprites in assets, in gameplay visuals like the game over screen, characters appear fully rendered and consistent.

    • “In the graphics folder, I had found what had seemingly been a leftover from redrawing Noprops' original artwork for the remake—a spritesheet of Fuwatty without its arms.”
    • “But once it caught me, as chase monsters tend to do when placed 3 feet in front of the player, the game over graphic showing the blueberry-colored giant that had won one over on me depicted Fuwatty as usual, arms and all.”

  • monetization

    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 100% negative mentions

    The monetization in this game is notably improved compared to the mobile version, as it removes intrusive ads and gimmicks designed to generate revenue. While this makes for a better experience, the overall quality still leaves much to be desired.

    • “At this point my expectations are so low that the only enjoyable thing about this port is that there aren't ads; it's definitely a better experience than the mobile game but that doesn't mean it's good.”
    • “I was already not a fan of the Aooni2 mobile version, and to be fair this game does make it better; it fixes a lot of the bugs and gets rid of the stupid masks that are just there to get people to watch ads and give them money.”

  • emotional

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    100% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    The emotional impact of the game is notably strong, eliciting genuine and intense feelings from players, including moments of sadness that have led to real-life tears.

  • atmosphere

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 100% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    The game's atmosphere is weakened by an overabundance of random chases, which disrupt pacing and reduce tension. Additionally, inconsistent spawn locations detract from immersion and overall engagement.
