Story

Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor Overclocked is an enhanced version of the original game, Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor, but most of its improvements come in the form of story content. In the base game, you play as your custom hero, a high school student living in Tokyo, Japan. When a sudden demon outbreak causes panic and widespread crime around the city, you and your friends team up to take on the demons by recruiting your own. Throughout the story, there are major moments where you'll have to make a decision to move forward, and these choices can impact the narrative in big ways. There are six unique endings depending on how you react to key situations, adding some replayability into the mix.

The biggest element of Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor Overclocked is the 8th Day bonus chapter, which is an epilogue to the main game's story. This expansion details an additional day of activities for three major characters, showing the events that played out after the original credits rolled. Each story adds significant background to the events in the main game while further fleshing out the characters with interesting new encounters. Although the 8th Day is really the only major new feature in this enhanced version, it's a welcome inclusion.

Gameplay

Following the trend of other tactical role-playing games like Fire Emblem and Final Fantasy Tactics, Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor Overclocked mixes turn-based combat with light exploration and puzzle solving. There are multiple difficulty levels to choose from, giving you full power over how challenging the combat is. During the game, you move from area to area in Tokyo, talking with characters and encountering enemies. There is no traditional time limit, but completing certain objectives will cause time to move forward, with the game finishing at the end of the seventh day. During exploration and other events, you can collect demons that are summoned in battle, with a total of 150 different demons to discover.

Battles are fought on a grid-style battlefield, with each member of a squad taking a turn before the enemy attacks. You control up to four squads at once, each one composed of a handful of demons selected for their unique powers and abilities. As demons successfully defeat other demons in combat, they earn experience and can be leveled up to become more powerful. You'll also earn in-game money called macca, which is used to buy items and upgrades from merchants in the game. In this enhanced version of the game, players can also access a demon compendium, which lets you bring back demons that have fallen in battle.

Conclusion

Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor Overclocked offers some valuable enhancements over the original game, including new story content and full voice acting. The replayability is high due to the branching story, and the new bonus story chapter rewards you for playing through all available endings.
