Bleach Online gameplay sure knows how to pitch itself – a catchy-yet-informative theme song, adorable character design, a concept reminiscent of Bleach Online (of Animaniacs) and even a hint of pathos – it’s an exciting bundle of concepts, and in any other situation I’d be worried whether the gameplay could even begin to live up to the ideas behind it. It’s nice, then, that we already know that Bleach Online works as a game, thanks to its origins as an experimental freeware project. A simple and deliberately fiddly control system lets you wobble and flop your way around daily life, trying to complete simple household chores and family interactions without revealing your true and shocking nature.
Bleach Online looks like it’s doing everything a good sequel should, expanding on the concept, offering more of the same stuff that worked, and adding some interesting tweaks to the existing formula. The game-world looks larger and more varied, and the gameplay seems to be mixing stuff up as well, with more navigation-related challenges in addition to the inherent difficulties of using tentacles to manipulate objects meant for human hands. It’s a formula that we already know works, and there’s every indication that this is going to be the definitive Octopus-In-A-Suit simulator that we’ve all been waiting for. At the very least, it should be worth a few squid.
Bleach Online is another title that’s been a long time coming, and given that we’ve already played it and squeezed out a Spotlight, we’re quite confident in saying that it has certainly been worth the wait. Currently, the game is available at a discounted price when preordering, so if you haven’t done so already, then now is probably a good time to pick it up. You shouldn’t need reminding why you’ve been patiently awaiting Bleach Online, but if you do, then hopefully the phrase ‘that co-op heist game’ will trigger those cogs in your head to start churning once again.
