April 2025

I enjoyed playing this game. I was really surprised by the amount of work behind it. It's way above the usual RPGM H-game in terms of quality. The art and animations in and out of combat are good, the girls are hot and are voiced. The maps are good looking, the soundtrack is custom made and not the default RPGM music. There are multiple different outcomes to your actions that will change the story. The gradual corruption of Clacier was hot, and allowing the player to control Annette was a great addition to the game. ( •̀ ω •́ ) The game is great overall, but there are many things that I didn't like. The story started out strong, and the more it went on, the weaker it got, and I eventually started not caring about it. The story dialogues and re-used cut-scenes can sometimes be a bit too much. The combat in this game is also really easy. There is no real challenge in the normal mode, I'm not sure if I ever used a healing spell or healing items. Too much rapey kink for my taste. Annette's corruption level is tied to Clacier, so you can't gradually corrupt her while you are playing her. When you finish the game, you get an unlock all scenes button, but it only unlocks the story scenes, it doesn't unlock all the NPC scenes you missed. Also, there are no preview images in the gallery, so you will have a hard time finding the scene you liked ૮(˶ㅠ︿ㅠ)ა

Decent RPGMaker eroge that's one of the more in-depth ones that Kagura has localized but will likely not win over people wanting something modern and flashy. Some of the translation work is odd but not complete machine slop. I'm not gonna act like it's the most amazing story work but also not act like it kicked my dog like some people seem to be doing. It's standard fare JRPG with the standard things if patched as well. There's three main routes, each with a couple ending options within them. Completion of one will give you the option to pull save data into the next run so you'll be able to run over a lot of enemies each successive run. Interestingly the patched content is the grindiest part of it, working on certain stats involved skipping a lot of patched generic scenes repeatedly to work on progression of one of the routes. With that as well since there's an option to unlock all scenes in the game you'll probably only want to go for completing each route once and then using that to see what all you missed because otherwise it's gonna become a real waste of your time to see everything because there's no good way to create a lot of save points to hit each one quickly. Otherwise decent length unpatched, lots of scenes patched that are all stills but with voice acting, dialogue is a bit wordy but not 'poetry' like many bad localizations. UPDATE: Forgot to include a patched scene count: 100 scenes with variations and partial voice acting during, a few extra scenes to unlock with specific endings, 81 combat/side scenes (some with simple animation). Completionist playthroughs took somewhere around 50 hours for me though I'm a bit of a slowpoke. Linux users: works out of the box, patch EXE can be used with Wine/Protontricks to use the game prefix to automatically find the correct path in Z:.

This game is in my opinion is the best work from oneone1, yes it has some repetitive scenes where only the dialog changes sometimes but it has a great variety of them, it has a funky birth mechanic which my sick mind actually enjoyed quite a bit, it kinda turned into a gotta birth them all thing for me, the corruption mechanics even though they are standard they are ok and weirdly enough the story is pretty good, also the price is good, and wont spoil it but the best ending is really fn satisfying lets just say you take a little bit of revenge. the patch can be downloaded from kaguragames. I deduct 1 point because some scenes really do get over used a bit would've deducted more if not for the variety, another point because I legit swear its kinda hard to know what decisions to take sometimes to get the desired ending you want without being glued to a walkthrough its like they expected you to be psychic sometimes, I give it 8 faps out of 10 for what it is a really solid buy if you came for the came.

This is a good game with a lot of H-Content (Though you need to be defeated by at least one boss to access most). Its also got a couple different story paths and endings. I got this game a couple years ago when it had great reviews, but for some reason now that I'm coming back its dropped to mix so I decided to add this positive review. It might not be the greatest game ever, but as far as ones made in RPG Maker I'd say its easily in my top 3. It's got dozens of hours of content, a solid (if not entirely original) story, and passable gameplay. Getting the patch from the makers website too gives you uncensored H content which is top tier when compared to most H Games. I would certainly give this one a try and while it might seem a bit expensive I think its worth the price given that its got an amount of content that exceeds the combined content of several cheaper H games combined.

Okay, I have been playing this game for 28hs and I have a lot to say. As a JRPG type game,this game is absolutely off-grade. Why?cuz its combat is too easy to make me feel a little bit tough!(who can tell me whatthehell is the function of potions?My heal spell cost nothing but can heal me more???Even if this game has some a little bit tough enemies or complicated dungeons,I will not say anything about this aspect.) Well,I don't know whether this aspect will be fixed or not,but there seems to be an option that could help you feel better——From the beginning,you can choose playing hard mode.(why there only two choices bro,I choose easy mode cuz I don't know how easy it is and how hard it is!!!!!)By the way,I didn't played the hard mode so I don't know whether it works. As a script type game,emm,it may be better than other JRPGs.However,I can name three JRPGs slaying it completely,King exit,Demons Roots and Black souls.The script is in a hurry to succeed I think.I also think I was playing Attack On Titan that is modified insanely. But when you adapt to it gradually and ignore the bad aspects,you can taste a special flavor.I won't say this game is a good-for-nothing,after all,it is a solemn and stirring story that moved me. Last,I only just played knight virgin route,so this view is an one-side POV.I hope you could enjoy this game and find your own answer.Prithee.
