Return to the depths of the Hell Spire in Criminal Girls 2: Party Favors, a provocative dungeon-crawling RPG for the PlayStation Vita. As an Instructor with no memory of how you arrived, you are tasked with guiding a group of seven delinquents through a rigorous Reformation Program. The goal is simple yet daunting: lead these women to the top of the spire to achieve redemption and return to the surface. However, there is a dark mystery lurking within your squad—one of the girls may not be who she claims to be, hiding a secret that could jeopardize the entire mission.

Master the Art of Reformation and Combat

The gameplay of Criminal Girls 2: and Party Favors blends traditional dungeon crawling with unique character management mechanics. As you navigate the treacherous levels of the Hell Spire, you must face off against Convicts in battles that utilize a distinct, suggestion-based system. Rather than navigating complex menus, your four active heroines will provide suggestions on whether to attack, support, heal, or perform combos, forcing you to react to their individual temperaments and battlefield presence.

Beyond the heat of battle, you must focus on deep RPG character growth through the following features:

  • The Coaching System: Utilize a brand-new skill tree to guide each girl's development. You can shape them into defensive maestros or offensive powerhouses by choosing between S or M developmental paths.
  • Motivations: Use "Motivations"—a series of interactive mini-games—to help your team learn new skills and boost their stats. These much-discussed encounters are central to the game's progression and character building.
  • Managing Mistrust: Success isn't just about defeating enemies; you must also overcome the seeds of mistrust within your group. As you climb the spire, you must work to unite the team and help them overcome their individual sins.

Uncover Mysteries in the Hell Spire

While the primary objective is reaching the top of the spire, much of the game's depth lies in the "Girl’s Wish" system. By completing specific tasks offered by the candidates, you can unlock smaller plotlines that reveal how each girl ended up in the depths of Hell. While navigating these threads, you must stay vigilant; one of your seven Reformation Candidates is a true criminal hiding in plain sight, and uncovering their identity is key to the group's salvation.
