[Nintendo Switch] A Review of Voice Love On Air

Dive into the world of Voice Love On Air, a fresh BL visual novel splashed across the Nintendo Switch canvas, courtesy of Game Source Entertainment and Softstar Entertainment. This engaging title invites you to explore a blend of romance and professional dedication. If BL, or Boys’ Love, is new to you, expect to step into the shoes of a male protagonist navigating potential romantic connections with other men while also tackling the challenges of voice directing and radio drama production—hence the fitting title of the game!

Meet Aki, your character who not only embarks on a romantic quest but must also deftly manage recording sessions for BL dramas. You’ll enjoy considerable creative control, selecting from a roster of voice actors and guiding their performances. This setup allows for diverse outcomes, as each choice you make crafts a unique drama production, boosting the game’s replay value. The dialogue is delivered in Japanese, complemented by English subtitles, immersing you in a bilingual narrative journey. All this is underscored by the necessity of financial success to sustain your operations, so accruing enough funds to keep the studio bustling is crucial!

Visual novels, like this one, are a celebration of storytelling. They range from highly narrative-driven plots to interactive experiences where your choices steer the unfolding events. Within this first-rate immersive environment, character development is enriched through detailed voice acting—truly a praiseworthy feature given its costs. Voice Love On Air does not shy away from romance, offering Aki a chance to fall head over heels with any of the four intriguing characters you’ll encounter.

As the narrative unfurls, you’ll find yourself striving to create top-notch BL dramas. The revenue generated aids in covering the studio’s significant debt—$200,000 per season! The plot deftly blends Aki’s initial desperate leap into the recording industry with a natural knack for discerning the subtleties in voices, a skill that becomes vital to his new career path.

Manage your journey through a handy Project Manager app that lets you track project details crucial for each recording stint. Strengthen Aki’s key skills—Recognition, Profession, Communication, and Performance—by engaging in online classes, paying with vouchers. Beware, though, of exhaustion, as it could thwart your efforts! Each recording adventure is structured into four stages—Check Details, Appoint, Table Read, and Record—spanning five hectic days. Stay on top of your deadlines; otherwise, you might face financial ruin!

Every drama production presents a buffet of outcomes influenced by your selections and guidance, promising a refreshing replay each time. Your journey spans two vivid years, offering ample room for blossoming love stories as you pen narratives featuring 200,000 words, 20 musical tracks, 30 CG illustrations, and 20 individual dramas.

Voice Love On Air isn’t just a BL visual novel—it’s an enthralling tapestry weaving together love, ambition, and the bustling world of audio drama crafting. Why not try your hand at steering Aki’s romantic and professional escapades for yourself? At $29.99, it lands on the Nintendo Switch, ready to enchant. Could it be that your newfound profession also becomes your path to love?
