I struggle to even call this a "game". It has 16 levels which can all be beaten in less than 60 seconds. Including all the cutscenes, it took less than 2 hours to reach the credits. The fact that they thought they could get away with selling this for $40 is insulting. I spent $16 on it and I still feel like I overpaid. The way that Idea Factory has been so negligently mishandling one of my favorite game franchises …

Trust me. While this game is fun, it's not $40 fun with what little content it has. If you're going to buy this game, DO NOT buy this game at full price. Wait for a discount if you absolutely must have this game.

"Neptunia Riders VS Dogoos" is a fun, fast-paced spinoff that throws the series’ beloved CPU heroines into slime-soaked, bike-riding chaos. It’s a bite-sized action game packed with light customization, expressive animations, and playful energy that stays true to the Neptunia -nepunepu- spirit. Players control mainly Uzume, and goddesses like Neptune and Noire as they ride through corridors infested with gooey …

Very good game. Amazingly idiotic price though. Much less content than any other non-danmaku Nep game, alarm clock smartphone app included. Still, probably best motorbike game since Ride 3.

Should have spent more time in the oven, but still a decent concept. The mechanics are solid, but there is just too little to do. I finished the game as of this review. Although, I did speed through the cutscenes.

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This track is called "Theme of Bike Battle"! Neptunia Riders VS Dogoos was a fun game! It took the bike mechanic from Game Maker (which I admittedly didn't use that much in that game 😅) and created an entire game out of it! It was a chill time, it was cool to see Uzume as the protagonist as well 😊

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Not worth almost $60 AUD considering I 100%d it in 5 hours (I bought the deluxe edition so it was actually $76) and a decent amount of time of that was because I couldn't figure out where the other 3 Rider dogoos were since no one made a guide for it (There's 1 in each worlds 3rd stage. You're welcome) I finished the game (non 100%) in an hour and a half. It is kinda fun, but man there is not very much content. Still gonna leave a positive review since I'm pretty damn sure Iffy hates steam…

Yeah, it’s as chaotic and charming as it sounds. Intro : Neptunia Riders VS Dogoos is the kind of fever dream spin-off that only the Neptunia franchise could cook up — part bike-riding action game, part creature collector, and all wrapped in the series’ signature fourth-wall-breaking charm.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Neptunia Riders VS Dogoos is, well... Terrible. I won't go as far as calling it hot garbage because it works and is bug-free, but the game being 60% off two months after release should tell you everything you need to know about what to expect. The good : - Smooth performance, but mostly because the graphics are very basic. - The usual gang with the usual voice actors. The bad : - Outrageously overpriced for the amount of content you get. Doing 100% achievements will take you no more than…

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →it would be okay as a mini-game in the recently released Neptunia Game Maker R:Evolution (would even fit because Big Neptune and motorbike etc) but charging almost 40€ is insane for max 6h of "gameplay" if you're going for 100% when you're retarded like me. Uzume does not deserve such ♥♥♥♥ treatment...
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →If this is where we're going, maybe Neptunia as a series shouldn't continue. Been on this train since mk2 on PS3, and I want off. Utterly anaemic experience that offers nothing rewarding in replaying stages. You can unlock new accessories and parts by clearing levels and missions, but you still have to purchase them with in-game currency which you barely receive. I can't recommend it at all. Uzume deserved better than this.

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I'm a long time fan of the Neptunia games, but, I couldn't honestly recommend this one for any by the most hardcore fans. Neptunia games are rarely particularly good, but the character banter and silly story generally carries them well enough to make them a worthwhile experience. While the character interactions are still here, they're not particularly long, and neither is the game as a whole. The game only has 15 stages [Technically 16 if you count the tutorial stage], each of which can,…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →PJ5118 feels he is stupid to spend this much for a 3 hour game. The game is literally empty after the story, a story which is literally nonexistent
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I bought this Simply to get more Nep. I like it.... but I would Recommend waiting for to go on Sale to get this one. It is just an Improvement on a Mini Game Game Maker after. That can be beaten in less than 5 hours I really Hope IF and Compa make a Legitimate Sequel to Megadimension Neptunia soon Though. I get Sisters V Sisters, Game Maker and this are Canon but I really want to see what IF and Compa think of the Gen 9 Console War.... Even if its Just Noire Dominating Vert for no Reason......

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Uzume is best girl. Dumb game, cute girls. What else do you need? (Be sure to get it on sale, otherwise you may be underwhelmed). BUYER BEWARE: Character models have been de-assified. That means their buttcheeks are practically non-existent, hopefully someone smarter will make a mod to fix it.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Has the charm of nep but as a PvE racer, a fun game to 100% but its too short to be worth the current price would only recommend getting on sale.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I say it again, IF put more effort on the Collector's edition of Neptunia Riders vs Dogoos than the actual game, same goes with Virtual Stars. They made a fully working Vinyl with the OST lol.
negative · AI labelView post →It's fine, but definitely not worth 40 bucks. I actually enjoyed this game for what it is. It's a decent spin-off with not really much to do after finishing the main game, except for doing all achievements, which can be done in around 5-6 hours of total playtime. Most of the achievements are unlocked by just playing through the main game, so it's not that much of a hassle. The only achievement that is just mind-numbingly dumb is driving for 200 km. I unlocked every achievement at around 100 km…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Very fun sequel, clearly worth the price
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I only recommend this if you find it for very cheap during a steam sale. It's extremely overpriced, I would price it at around 10€ at best. Also if you never played a Neptunia game, for half the price of this you can get Megadimension Neptunia VII wich is light years better than this one. This game is fun, but it's missing a lot of what make Neptunia games enjoyable. There's almost no interaction between characters other than really basic dialogues and the game is just 3 hours. There's also…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ with 2-3 (I'm being very generous) hours of gameplay. Buy only if you're a fan and there's at least 50%+ sale, it's fun. I hope the publisher will set sane pricing for next games, and I'll actually buy them on release.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Neptunia riders vs dogoo is a game that I am recommending but at a heavy discount, it's a fun game, very casual with some good ideas but it's extremely short with little to no replayability to it and it shows with the achievement to travel 200KM which after clearing every track multiple times for the challenges that only are possible after you beat the stage once and collecting every dogoo type and literally doing everything the game has to offer I have 137KM...so yeaaaah I'm gonna be mega…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I did enjoy this game, it reminds me of Sonic Riders when you're in a battle arena and fighting others. Not quite as in depth but still fun. My biggest gripe would be the $40 price tag with a game you can finish in about an hour and a half. That is not 100%ing it though, based on what I've done so far though, it may only take about 2 more hours to fully 100% it. It's a fun game and if you have the the money to spare, I do recommend it. Otherwise, I'd definitely say pick it up on sale.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Got a bit further into Neptunia Riders VS Dogoos. This game is fun! The gameplay is kind of like a smaller scale version of the battle mode from Mario Kart. I like the bike and character customization as well.

positive · AI labelView post →• DOGOOS OF DISAPPOINTMENT ... Neptunia Riders VS Dogoos takes a paper-thin premise and stretches it to a breaking point, resulting in one of the most mechanically shallow and soul-crushing gameplay loops in the franchise’s history. The entire experience revolves around riding a bike across lifeless, flat arenas to vacuum up hordes of colorful Dogoos. While this might have passed as an uninspired mini-game buried inside a mainline RPG, selling it as a standalone title is borderline insulting.…

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is a pretty bad game, I am honest, it's bad on so many levels. They should just stop making neptunia games I could have listed tens or hundreds issues this game has, but why should I give this review more effort than these people spent making it? This game has less steam reviews than there are people on this game's credits, let this sink in.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Nep-Nep on Wheels! I 100%’d this in one 5.5h sitting — Uzume-only, all routes cleared, every stage 3★, every Dogoo collected, every upgrade and accessory bought, all while watching the story. Short game, yes, but I enjoyed every minute. Outfits are surprisingly pretty, Dogoos are silly fun, and the boost system is addictive. The grind for BP and Rider Dogoos can be a little RNG, but that’s part of the charm. If you’re a Neptunia fan, this is a light but fun spin-off. If you’re new, it’s more…

neutral · AI labelView post →My positive recommendation is reliant on the game being on sale, if it's on sale then get it and if it's not on sale then don't. Silly fun, silly story, sillier pricing. You ride around collecting Dogoos, which may or may not have special attributes, and you try to collect a certain amount before the two opponent riders do. You can attack them with a melee or ranged attack to steal their Dogoos but overall the game is so easy you can ignore them outside of the final level where you're forced…
