I think Zan just needs to make a special "spoiler alert section with those hints to open gallery and scenes content". But really, like, here and in discord, we answer these questions almost every 3-4 days... and people still keep asking without searching in previous posts :(

I only got a chance to play through the new content this morning, so I missed out the large discussion, but honestly, I don't find anything objectionable with Lyriel's new content. My biggest "worry" and even that might be a strong point, is that it might accidentally write itself into a corner. Let's face it, we all know this is basically a harem game, even if I suppose an individual player can make a set of choices that lands him in bed with one and only one of the girls. That can only really function, writing wise, if the girls are at least passively okay with being in a harem. Rae and Caitlin don't seem to mind you having other women, and Naomi doens't seem to take things seriously, she separates the sex from the relationship. Lyriel, on the other hand, seems far more likely to react badly to the idea that you want to bang her and all the other girls.
If she really does have a fetish for being used as a fucktoy like she seems to from her last two dreams, I wouldn't think that's likely to be a problem. And remember that she's the newcomer, and knows that we're with Rae at least (don't know if she knows about the other two). If she makes a move she just has to accept things.

Is there a walkthrough anywhere? It didn't seem like I needed one, but I've now realized I'm missing scenes 1,2, and 3 from the Main Menu gallery as well as images 1, 2, 5, and 6 from the phone gallery. This feels like a lot to ask for direct help with on the forum, hence my looking for a walkthrough. Also, haven't we reached a point where "walkthrough" is accepted as a compound word? Why does my computer think that's bad grammar? Silly, silly, spellchecker.
(Wait, really?! "spellchecker" is accepted as a word but "walkthrough" isn't? Well, yeah, look what's telling me that...)

EDIT: Okay, yes, I now see the posts literally JUST before mine, but you see what I'm saying. For playing the game, no, I don't need a walkthrough, but for finding all the little extras.

I took the time to use the forum and find what I was missing from both galleries. It wasn't easy, due to the number of times these questions have been asked and not answered. Those two things work together to make searching for this kind of stuff harder, which in turn leads to people asking the same questions again. I'm just pointing that out. Do with that information what you will.

Here's a guide for both of the galleries. Please feel free to put it in the topic post or quote this post when people inevitably ask again (or both).

EDIT: Thank you, AlexTorch, I really wish I had seen your post before I did all that searching, but thank you!

...Naomi doens't seem to take things seriously, she separates the sex from the relationship...
You know, now that I think about it, that kinda thing is explored far less often than I would think. The best example I can think of is Subjugation by Fel, and that's not porn it's just an awesome novel (alien race has telepathy and doesn't consider physical sex a big deal, it's culturally accepted and even encouraged that people will fuck their significant other's friends if said friend's SO is away; this causes clashes here and there with species that don't feel the same). But this site has hundreds of porn games, and I can't think of a single game where there's both a) a semblance of plot and b) an in-universe separation of romance and sexuality.

Plenty separate it purely to serve the sex (harem yay), but that's more obliterating the romantic aspect than it is a real separation (e.g. everyone's up for sex with everyone). Very few porn games have any real focus on romance (though I have seen some very very good ones, which is good because quality > quantity), so I guess it kinda makes sense? Most people are playing these games for one reason, and it ain't to find a spouse :p

Still feels a bit weird though; this is a medium where people are free to explore! Free to be creative! I mean, people can just go nuts (pun intended. Always intend your puns) and come up with grand worlds! There's a whole ton of grey between "everyone's just constantly fucking strangers" and "people fuck out of love!!!"

I've had this happen. Usually it clears by itself after a relaunch. Or if you have this happen on Android, try reinstalling (but don't delete the game, or you'll lose the saves, I think). It seems that RenPy playback code (at least for WebM) is a bit unstable as there is basically a single way to make videos work, no fancy options, nothing, so I don't think I could've broken anything.


But Taena has her own inn. Another spoiler time, I guess elves are a minority "ethnicity" in Lyriel's world. Only unlike the minority populations in "our" Medieval Europe, they are physically different, they have some ether-related powers in the world mostly without magic. They live much longer, and they can trace their heritage way, way back, hence they call themselves Trueborn. But then again, they are much slower to propagate, and their almost ageless society is really averse to change, so humanity eventually caught up to them. So elves in human cities aren't really liked that much, they are The Others, but then again, they are more powerful than most humans, and their eternally young (not really, but close enough) maidens are in high demand.


That is true, yes. I want to remake the whole dreaming UI to make it clearer and more grounded in the game lore. I think it'll be much more obvious then.



Install the newer version on top, your saves should transfer automatically. Just don't delete the older version before installing the new one.


That's just weird. Are you using the official build or a repack?


I post a short walkthrough for alpha-level patrons that goes into detail on how to get every possible outcome from new events, but otherwise you can't miss out on much. Everything you need to progress is either in the quest log, or in the love app.



I'm still thinking about it. Sleep sex is a pretty popular kink, but the night period isn't really defined in the game logic, so properly adding it will require quite a bit of work. So it's on my list, but no a priority.


I actually am not :rolleyes: I appreciate the game for how influential it was, and I like its lore and how they presented it, but I despised the controls and some of the gameplay decisions and had no patience to keep going.


Last few updates aren't adding any major quests, so go into the love app for the event hints.

Finally have time to play this updates, and now Lyriel have become my favorite girl just like all the girls in the house too. I have a soft heart, when seeing her flushing face I just can't hate her like before... so cute

Hey guys, and @ZanithOne,
sorry if someone already ask the question, but how can you get Lyriel ?
The quest log say : "Someone Else" -> Let's see what it is, but I can find anything nor dialog about that :-(

It's all very well talking about the ramifications of elves being slaves and Taena being an abused sex slave, but you haven't made an argument why they are those things, do that first before going on about the consequences of it.
Were you not paying attention to that scene? I already stated in that post that the evidence was in the men's reaction to Lyriel's refusal. They tried to rape and kill her as soon as she refused them! That is enough evidence that the elves in that world are mistreated regardless of apparent consent. If that group of men is able to rape and kill them if they refuse, then how can the elves give any kind of real consent? Their lives depend on them being submissive.

There's a new CG set out there, featuring Naomi in a dress! Full set is here for Patrons -

And another freebie pick (with dress!) is here -


Any1 can tell me when Lyriel goes in the attic. Been there 2 weeks in a row morning , afternoon and evening and she never goes there.
You're going by the hint, right? Could be something wrong with the scheduler or event trigger. Post or PM me your save, please, I'll have a look.

There's any way to change my characters name without starting a new game?
Not right now. Although it should be an easy addition, I'll add it near the top of The List.

Yes, I was paying attention but apparently you weren't. We see one of them going to grab her, and the others tell him to stop being a pillock. Taena is definitely not begging them 'please don't hurt her', she's warning them 'stop that idiot or else', that's rather a strange thing for an abused sex slave to say, no? And there's no indication at all that any of them, even the idiot thinking with his dick, would go anywhere near so far as actually killing her, I have no idea where you got that gem from. I say again, there is no evidence at all to support your opinion. Full stop.

Hi ZanithOne I just tried your game and wow, just wow. Few things to point out if you are interested in feedback:

1. Many times I have seen your game updated on f95 but always skipped because I don't like the thread banner. Just looks very unappealing for me, also taking into consideration it is showing HS model and for me that is often sign of low-level productions. It is stupid to judge book by the cover - but well, a lot of decisions regarding H games is based on looks so maybe this is justified somehow ;)
Recently someone recommended your game together with titles I like so I tried. I am still amazed :) Juts curious how many people made my mistake and skipped playing because of (in my opinion) poor advertisement. Maybe make a vote about it somewhere - maybe it is not only my observation.

2. Dialogs, especially naughty bits and jokes are 100/100. Another league. They just show how shitty dialogs in 99,8% of other games here are in compare. Keep it up and give someone responsible for them a medal.

3. Great decision to make older version of game public - as always I believe it help games that would succeed regardless. As for games that don't benefit from that model - nothing would help them succeed.

4. Very nice use of HS (or other Illusion title) to make scenes and animations. Very high quality in contrary to how it looks like when majority of DEVs use them - definitely one of very best uses of such assets here. Highest quality.

5. I see that some people are requesting adding new fetishes - like sleep sex etc.
Personally I would like to see that if it would be done in a good way, with quality and quantity but you should be 100% sure you want to stand behind any new fetishes/mechanics. What I mean is that your game has moderate success on Patreon and just continuing what you are already doing will probably keep support steady or growing slowly (I will try joining from next month - I put too much already in Patron this month). If you will add fetishes/mechanics that making them will not give you pleasure then it can negatively impact your will to work on the core game itself and destabilize entire project support. It does not mean I believe you should be conservative with the game but rather look for a way to make game fun to make for yourself.

6. Last point - In my opinion a lot of creators of games (especially with HS models/characters) add new model/character and add them to game much faster then new content designed for them. It make unbalanced as 'old' characters have a lot more content and 'new' never catch-up because there is already another new behind the corner. IMHO it is better to have few characters with significant content then a dozen with almost nothing to progress.

TLTR: Thanks for fantastic game. Make sure people will not talk you into changing it in a way that further development will be a burden for you.
