UE4 version was a great start but really lacked polish: some parts of UI are inconsistent, some finnicky gameplay mechanics, clipping in some sex animations, and annoying map traversal. However, it had a lot of details and customization available (even though unlocking them is a chore as you need to explore and complete quests for that).
UE5 version (at time of review, on version 0.5.150 2024-06-02) is branded as pre-alpha and very work in progress, however already feels like a much more polished game than UE4 version. Mechanics for morphs make more sense (go to an altar instead of swapping in inventory, which however can become tedious), gameplay feels more complete and UI is top notch (in game UI, meanwhile the main menu and pause screen use the same template design as Home Together game, probably placeholder). Map traversal improved with mounts, there are unlockable PvE skills/abilities, new morphs unlocked by essence (earned by killing all enemies) and you choose what to unlock each time. Sex animations are also a lot more polished and have more attention to detail.
As of writing this review, the main problem I see is low amount of sex scenes, which is understandable in UE5 as it is still in very early phases, but even UE4 did not have an abundance of them although more frequent than UE5. UE5 lacks many customization options, but judjing from the placeholder interface and changelogs, these will be ported over from older version in the next updates. The animation viewer in UE5 is miles better but still does not allow for free panning of camera, only some premade tracks that you can move the camera along.
TLDR:
- GREAT games, quality matched by very few other games
- nice gameplay, UE5 more enjoyable/polished
- sex scenes could be more frequent
- UE5 lacks some custmization from UE4
- sex scenes lack free camera panning
