Cute Bite from Ratalaika Games and Hanako Games is a charming vampire-raising simulator available on the PlayStation 5. Let’s dive into what makes this game a unique experience!
Cute Bite finds its roots nestled in the creative lands of Ratalaika Games and Hanako Games, delivering a delightful vampire-raising simulator to PlayStation 5 users. Imagine stepping into the shoes of a dutiful butler, devotedly serving your vampire mistress, who, thanks to an extended slumber in her coffin, has woken up in the form of a petite, child-sized version of herself. With her diminished power, the task falls to you to nurture and train her until she can reclaim her former strength by effectively overcoming challenges with a bite! She craves more than just blood—fame and fortune are her keys to regaining her true form. If you’re familiar with this duo’s previous work, Long Live the Queen, you’re in for a treat.
Your daily decisions will shape this little vampire’s progress. It’s crucial to strategize her daily activities to enhance her stats. Dialogue choices play a significant role in determining the course of her journey, and balancing these choices with her physical and mental welfare is key. Sometimes, a rest is essential to recuperate both body and mind, while simultaneously working on raising the maximum thresholds for these attributes. Of course, don’t forget the vital act of feeding! Investing your hard-earned gold in items to further boost her stats might also prove beneficial.
Consideration of her educational path is equally important—what will you choose to teach her each day? Each class impacts her stats uniquely and comes with physical, mental, and financial costs. The further you progress, the costlier classes become. Boost her skills in areas like Technology, Style, Strength, and more—including Insight and Endurance. To fund her education, you’ll send her to work, but be cautious of the stress it may cause. Balance is essential to prevent breakdowns.
On the trophy front, Cute Bite offers a complete trophy list with the sought-after Platinum trophy up for grabs. As a Cross-Buy game, purchasing it gives you access to both PS4 and PS5 versions, each with its own trophy list featuring one Platinum, 16 Bronze, 24 Silver, and a single Gold trophy. Achieving this shiny glory requires tasks such as defeating prey, wresting victory in arm wrestling, and other interactive adventures.
This vampire-raising visual novel casts you in the role of a butler, bound by vampire blood, aiding a diminutive mistress in regaining her power. As mentioned, after a lengthy slumber, she’s become child-sized and unable to protect you. It’s your mission to help her gain strength and renown. At $14.99, Cute Bite is a Cross-Buy purchase allowing downloads on both PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5, complete with individual trophy lists to conquer.
