Platinum #347: VA-11 HALL-A


Hey there!

If you ever wanted to try a Visual Novel, go for this game. It has a decent story and a lot of drinks!

What is the game all about?
VA-11 HALL-A, or simply Valhalla, is the name of the bar in which this Visual Novel takes place. You take control over Jill, who works at this bar as a bartender.
You will meet various characters who will tell you their story and order drinks. These drinks must be prepared and served by you. But be careful to serve the correct drinks, otherwise the customers might become angry, which will have a high impact on the story. This may lead into different dialogues or the customers not returning at all. If you make too many mistakes, you’ll get fired. Then, it’s game over!
At the end of each day, you’ll get your earnings and return home. There you can spend your hard earn money on things you need or buy some decorations. You can even buy a PC, on which you can play a short but hard shoot ‘em up. But don’t waste too much money! Otherwise you won’t be able to pay your rent.
The game has awesome cyberpunk pixel-art and a great soundtrack. Speaking of which you can change in the juke every day.
The story and character are great and as this game share the same universe as 2064: Read Only Memories, there are also some cameo appearances of 3 different characters. But you must meet some specific criteria to make them appear.
If you every wanted to try out a Visual Novel, play VA-11 HALL-A. It’s truly a great story-driven game.

What about trophies?
There are a lot of missable trophies, like serving all correct drinks or making some cameos appear. Furthermore, there are different endings and you also must play and beat the shmup I’ve written above. Luckily, there’s a great text guide on playstationtrophies.org, with which you’ll be able to unlock nearly everything in one playthrough. The rest can be unlocked by loading a back-up save.

Where can I get this game?
VA-11 HALL-A can be found in most of the PSN stores. But be aware, it’s Vita only. So, you might buy it in the store your main account is tied to.
If you need PSN cards, you can buy them at play-asia.com or at scdkey.com. There you get digital codes, which will be send to you via e-mail within minutes.
There has also been a limited physical release by limitedrungames.com, but it’s sold out already. You might want to try your luck on eBay.
Alternatively, you can buy the Japanese version on play-asia.com. Alas, it’s in Japanese only.
