What players say

Players are split on Backstage Pass. Admirers praise its English voice acting, character customization, and emphasis on friendship and hustle over romance. Critics find the stat-raising grindy and opaque, requiring a guide to reach an ending at all, with some routes ending abruptly and without explanation.
