After playing this game all last year... it really demotivated me that, for a game focused on virtual photography, you have to spend so much money on outfits that end up being forgotten after a month and nobody cares about—not to mention that when you have to dye an outfit, you need a lot of extra money to fully customize it. I really wanted to keep following the story starting with 2.0, but I also feel bad about how little they care about the community in other countries. I loved this game for a long time, but I’m not happy with everything about it—the outfits seem recycled from others, just with different colors and a few extra details. I don’t recommend it if you’re a virtual photographer, nor if you’re hoping for a good story.
Infinity Nikki is such a beautiful and relaxing game. The world is gorgeous, the outfits are amazing, and exploring Miraland never gets boring. I really enjoy the cozy activities, puzzles, and just running around discovering new things. It’s not a very challenging game, but that’s part of its charm. Perfect if you want something cute, relaxing, and easy to get lost in. Highly recommend!
By far one of my favorite games in existence. I've been with them since the Love Nikki mobile game a decade ago. I've been playing Infinity Nikki since it came out December 2024 on Epic Games, and when they finally added it to Steam started playing it here. Anyone who liked the concept of Love Nikki will love this open world rpg. The graphics are breathtaking. The outfits are beautiful. Yes, this is very much a gacha game, but you can 100% play the story and earn beautiful outfits without having to spend a dime. There's no real downside to not spending money on the game. That being said, this is one game where I wholeheartedly have no problem spending money. When I do spend money on it, it's probably about $30 a month, but I'm not consistently on it. Mainly so I can grab the monthly outfits in the shop that I honestly don't need, not to mention the bonus outfit each season you can unlock for spending money. Mainly, I recommend this game for the beautiful and well-thought storyline, the amazing graphics, the cute outfits, the lore, and just the fun you can have in general. This is definitely one of my favorite games.
