Artificial Academy 2 (ジンコウガクエン2, Jinkou Gakuen 2) is an eroge (hentai) high school social simulation, spun off from Illusion's Artificial Girl series, to be released by Illusion on June 13, 2014.This game is a sequel of Artificial Academy which released 2011.
Even if this game is supposed to be similar to AA1, I can’t help but feel apprehensive. Reading everyone’s stories make me assume that I’d get a “everyone’s bipolar” simulator, though hopefully I’d be able to discern its pattern similar to how I did in the first game.
Moreover, I usually play passively. It was the usual way of not pissing anyone off; hence, everyone’s opinion of the player character increases in exponential time. AA2 suggests that I might get screwed if I don’t frequently interact with anyone… which I hope isn’t true. Having to babysit numbers for everyone is not as fun in AG3.
There are also people hinting that sexual orientation might matter less; where everyone can fall with anyone – giving only the latter the power to reject if they’re incompatible. This means there’s potential for everyone to get NTR’d, unless you’ve arranged a huge harem only for yourself. I hope it’s more than just that.

Graphics: This game follows the cell shaded anime style similar to some previous Illusion tittles (Home mate, School mate). However the quality is at a very pleasant level, with good character physics.
Music: This isn't the strong point of the game, the tracks aren't bad, but they aren't tracks that you can listen for a long time, they get old very quick, and you will be listening to them a whole lot if you are playing this game.
Sound: The voice acting is of decent quality, other sounds fit in well into the game, though there aren't many of them in the first place.
Controls: At first glance they are horrendous and confusing, but once you get the hang of them, they actually work really well. I will cover the controls wider later on.
