Finding Digital Love: 5 Otome Games in My Switch Backlog
For this past Christmas, I asked Santa (my husband) for some Otome games on the Switch, and he delivered with some really amazing picks! I just finished Code: Realize ~Guardian of Rebirth~ (review coming soon!) and was taking inventory of what I wanted to play next. I thought this would be the perfect opportunity to share what is currently in my backlog with you and gush about why I am so excited to play these!

Meg says: "A gritty and sexy thriller? Sign me up! There's nothing like your life being in danger to put you in a romantic mood. I am (mostly) kidding, but coming fresh off the trail of Code: Realize where the heroine is in a similar situation, I'm ready to see how it plays out (and who saves me)."

Meg says: "Yet another game on this list is brought you by a Blerdy Otome review. She's definitely the queen of Otome so I trust any recommendation that she has.

Meg says: "If I'm guilty of anything on this list, it's choosing games based on how pretty the art is. However, I did hear this one is pretty steamy so my expectations might be a little high for a game I'm not familiar with other than the plot and reading a couple reviews on the internet. I'm ready, so hit me with the spice please!"
