There are plenty of visual novels that offer up interesting stories, but you won’t find many as compelling as the reverse romance of Variable Barricade. Full of unexpected twists and turns and boasting eye-catching anime artwork and an unforgettable J-pop soundtrack, the adventure is available to order today on Nintendo Switch. Read on for more about what makes this one a must-play.
Not all romances are created equal. In the case of Hibari, she comes from a prestigious family and her grandfather is determined to find her a husband. What could possibly go wrong when he arranges to house her in a luxurious villa with four handsome, hand-picked bachelors and a private butler? When it seems like grandpa may have chosen poorly, all bets are off.
Now Hibari is in full romance refusal mode, as she attempts to frighten off each of these would-be suitors. Meanwhile, they’re trying to win her hand by any means necessary, putting her through countless trials in the process. Is there more to these guys than meets the eye, or is Hibari stuck holding out against all the matchmaking schemes that come her way?
Hibari can’t quite see what she could possibly have in common with any of these suitors. There’s a loan shark, a gambler, a gold-digger and a gigolo, and she’s supposed to marry one of them? It’s up to you to uncover the truth behind it all and determine Hibari’s fate, and you won’t want to miss what happens over the course of this adventure. Find out for yourself and order your copy of Variable Barricade on Switch today.
