It had to happen eventually. I've been talking up the first game for years, because it's one of the best. It's not even controversial, TWEWY's my #1 DS game and for good reason. People've been talking about ludonarrative dissonance for years, but the harmonies brother, the HARMONIES
TWEWY, or The World Ends With You, or It's a Wonderful World is one of the strangest, most innovative, most well-designed games and well-told game stories, and that all applies to the second entry as well. TWEWY NEO is a slower experience than the first, but arguably hits higher highs, and certainly if you're willing to dig into the writing. TWEWY 1 is a masterclass in packaging an experience for video games, TWEWY NEO is a power-40-hours, I guess, for people who want to put the pieces together.
These games are also perfect for discussing storytelling in games, because they, unlike many others in the genre, make use of EVERY element of design to sell the narrative. It's wild. Check it out!
