Mitadake High is a round-based Roleplaying Anime game in which you are a Student in a school who either has to kill the others, survive or escape. There are currently three different game modes to play, each with its own features.

I'll be splitting the review into 4 sections: Game Modes, gameplay and features, Graphics, community and conclusion + overall rating.

The Modes:
As stated above, the game has 3 playable game modes, I will explain all three now, some will be more detailed then others, as I've only played one game mode myself.

Normal Mode:
In normal mode, there's a scenario: "A Teacher has been brutally murdered and left for dead". Now when you enter the game, it will randomly pick one person who is the killer, that person must kill all the other students. Alternatively, if your not the killer, you must either: A) Survive or B) Escape.

Death Note Mode:
Yes, you heard it! Death Note! As stated in normal mode: a teacher has been murdered again by 'Kira', when you begin the game, it will pick one person to be 'Kira', that person will be given the Death Note and must find the names and kill all the students and one person will be given 'Shinigami Eyes', that person can see all the students names and should try to find Kira and kill all the other students together.

Nanaya Mode:
This mode is a free for all, everyones goal is to kill everyone else, each person will have serveral techniques that they can use.

The Gameplay and Features

Mitdake is a very flexible game, almost anything you see you can use for something: You can find things in boxes, you can login to school computers to find out names (hint, hint!), you can view different parts of the school from the security camera room, enter the ventilation and get to different places. And heck, when a person is walking within your radius you can here there footsteps.

The game design is very normal, the interface isnt edited alot, except for a few buttons. Most things in the game are done on the statpanel.

The Graphics

When you first login to the game, you'll see a different graphic depending on the game mode, I wouldnt say that they completely 'suck' but they could be improved. There's different icons for different people, both male and female and those icons cannot be changed (as far as I know), the only other graphical thing that can be added to your base icon are weapons. There's not much else to say about the graphics, but all of them are most definatly original.

The Community

Not alot of people know about Mitdake High, which is one of the reasons that I am writing a review for it which will hopefully get it more players. However the current amount of players (I see about 5-10) are very good roleplayers. However, of course there are a minority of people who find it amusing to not roleplay at all and kill people for no reason at all.

Conclusion and Overall Rating

My conclusion on Mitdake High is basically that it's a well made game and deserves more popularity and players. My overall rating would have to be 8/10.
