Unity - Completed - Arrival of the Goddess [v1.05] [NTRMAN]

Pros:

• Ntrman's artstyle looks good as always.
• Voice acting in multiple languages
• Ongoing lore continuity with other series from the dev team.

Cons:

• Slow walkspeed even with run button on a massive map for no reason.
• Saving and screen transitions load extremely slowly, saving only allowed in one place, far from ending branching decision points.
• Pointless minigames and fetch quests that don't influence the outcome of the endings.
• There is quite a bit of dialogue in the game, and yet kinks feel extremely shoehorned in the scenes, sex happen spontaneously with zero buildup from the characters.
• Extremely buggy gallery that breaks the UI and settings every replay requiring full restart.
• Audio constantly switching languages.
• Convoluted ending requirements that require replaying the exact same scenarios trying to guess which combination is the right one.
• Changing cosmetic options require exiting to main menu, in a game where saving is only available in one location, said cosmetics must also be manually collected randomly in the large overworld map.

I came to this game expecting a great NTR content. But forget the NTR I want to play this boat mini game more. It just bring back memories on those top down racing games back in the day of flash games.

A short but enjoyable little ntr romp. Not to mention the hot tribal women in the cheating route. It is not for everyone but definitely hits certain spots. I personally think the animations are quite well done as well.

This is his best finished artwork yet (idk about TotD).
The idea of losing duels to the bulls is so hot to me, so I like the story a lot too.
The gameplay kind of makes you more immersed in the story, but it gets annoying too, for example, if you try to win at a high difficulty, you'll try a lot and have to move there, etc... VN is faster, duh.
I would've liked it more if there wasn't a bug while saving, it happened like 3 times and I had to reboot
Being able to change outfits is goated, although it doesn't affect the scenes, ¿does it?

Edit: Forgot to talk about the voice acting, awesome addition! And

I felt like it is the most expansive/ambitious we've seen from NTRman thus far, but sort of slips in the execution. As a Visual Novel, it absolutely carries the same top quality as any other NTRman product. Brutally lewd dialogue, jiggly animations, and juicy H sound effects. However, everything else added into the game honestly brings it down.

Extras, unlocked either by cheating (gamewise, not sexually) or getting any ending, you can customize the way the girls look in their idle positions. It's really neat and has plenty of sexy options to choose from. Unfortunately, it might be bugged on my copy, but I swear, sometimes it just refuses to work. I can have Claire be completely nude, but then she'll just randomly have whatever clothes she's suppose to have during dialogue exchanges, then suddenly become nude, then back to wearing clothes again. During my playthroughs, it generally allowed me to see what I actually designed about 70% of the time, but the other 30% being replaced in default mode regardless of my choices. Still, majority of the time it works, but it's still a bugged feature that bugs me.

As for the game itself, this one actually features gameplay! Too bad it sucks. Controlling John (you) in the overworld feels a bit clunky/slippery at times, with the mandatory minigames (Fishing, Boxing and Rafting) being even WORSE. The fighting one is a total joke, even on the hardest difficulty. Note: For my copy, the Jab (one of 3 fighting moves) is completely disabled for some reason, and even that handicap didn't do much to stop me from winning. Fishing and Rafting on the other hand are just completely busted! Unless you want to put actual time practicing these, which requires going through the same long ass dialogue and navigating the map, since you can only save at your main hut, over and over again, you ain't winning even on Easy. This would be fine if it meant nothing and just added a little something to the NTR story... But it matters, and I'll talk about that further in the SPOILERS part.

As for the ENG voices given to the three girls, only one of them is actually good, and that's your main wife, Claire. Which is good, because she really adds to the sex scenes (NTR or otherwise) and overall loose narrative. But Oluchi and the other tribe girl just don't work for me. ESPECIALLY the former. At that point, I just say screw it and turn off voices all togehter when they come on screen, which sort of defeats the purpose of adding additional voices.

SPOILERS AHEAD FOR NEXT SECTION
When it comes to the rest of the little features added, I think it was kind of a waste of time. Also quick shout out to shin_ for their detailed review of this game, as I wish to further expand on certain aspects people should be aware of before trying to play the game, if they don't mind spoilers like me.

So, why do the minigames matter? Well, outside of different cutscenes, they also help you from potentially being cucked for once and even contribute to one of two achievable endings ! Again, good in concept, but the execution was horrible.

1. If you lose the majority, or all three of the trial minigames during the three days/chances you have (9 games total), you're automatically sent to the NTR ending where you get the Red Flame on Ritual Night and ultimately doom humanity, as The Goddess possesses your wife to become the village onahole. If you like getting cucked, then this is the easiest and best way to go.
2. If you win all of the tirals and get to clap the losers' daughters, you are also automatically sent to the NTR ending as well. Meaning, if you actually busted your ass trying to legitmately win those games and didn't cheat, CONGRATS! Your reward is a slap in the face for trying to win and avoid being cucked, Chuck!
3. So far in my research and in shin_'s review, you must lose at least once to each opponent in order to get the Blue Flame on Ritual Night and get your happily ever after. Basically, you're getting cucked at least one way or another to avoid the ultimate "worst fate", but this was never made clear and absolutely requires trial and error. Again, which is fine, if it weren't for the mandatory controls from going to Point A to Point B and excessively long dialogue you have to skip through to try things again.

Oh, but there's more! Unlike other NTRman titles that I've tried, this also features a cool little dialogue decision making feature. They can help you earn, lose or maintain a unspecified amount of what I'll call "Affection" points. But much like Whose Line Is It Anyway, the points don't matter. It is pure fluff that's being disguised as being something meaningful. Outside of a couple line differences, they don't change squat narratively. If you keep losing the trials despite having a "high" love score from Claire, she still treats you like crap for being a total loser. Same goes for the tribeswomen, who are pretty much just mini prizes for winning the trials and nothing more, regardless of if you're dismissive of them.

Last notable feature is the little girl with the riddles... I still have no clue what the hell she is suppose to do, outside of just being there to interact with. I guess it's fine to have something random to break the tension I suppose, but since she doesn't even contribute to the sex scenes, why bother? If you're doing it just because you're bored, then why play this game in the first place? If it's curiosity, then I say eh, go for it. Not worth much, but could be entertaining for a bit.

I will probably edit this review in the future if I find something new or fix mistakes above upon replaying for further research. Overall though, this is a good Visual Novel (Excellent 5), but a bad "Game" (Terrible 1), ultimately bringing it to the closest score I can give: Average 3. If you're like me and just want to watch the porn for a quick fap, on the menu screen after the "click anywhere to begin", right click the hell out of the flying birds outside the window until you get a "Thank you for playing!" message to unlock the goodies.

DISCLAIMER ! This game can only really be enjoyed if you don't take it too seriously. If you come to NTR games for slow believable corruption, then turn around now, or else your loyal wife will become the village slut in less than 3 days!

For me, this game was a visual treat with some pretty fun minigames. Multiple endings, avoidable NTR, customizable outfits, and it all comes together in a nice package. If you aren't a fan of the gameplay, the game generously offers you a skip button, super useful for multiple playthroughs.

But, there are some pieces that I do have to critique. The EN voice acting for the main girl is great, the others... not so much. Oluchi's voice is the opposite of what I thought that character should sound like. Furthermore, while there are a lot of scenes, it's dedication to multiple paths means you have to enjoy man cheating on woman and vanilla sex to get the best experience.

I found that the MC's chemistry with his wife actually is pretty nice in the good path. But the problem is if you go straight for the Netorare path, the game really doesn't build up your relationship or chemistry at all.

The character moves a little too slow for my liking. And I did encounter a few gamebreaking bugs, like the race losing as soon as it started, or accidentally triggering a cutscene early and soft-locking.

Overall a solid experience and a game I would come to again, but it's a little too rough for me to give it the status of a classic.

Review of version [v1.02]

His best game so far. The corruption a bit too sudden, three stages is the bare minimum, it certainly could've been a lot more satisfactory. And the gameplay a bit boring, especially walking around from one spot to another. But it's straight forward and doesn't get in the way of the story, no need for walkthrough or pointers (I didn't like Tenants of the Dead because of that). The stoy and progression is cohesive, the drawings and animations are great (the best ones so far imo), the story telling focues more on dialog than narration which is great. Overall a nice game.

Great art, probably his best work so far.
Story wise probably the most boring. There is no corruption, no build up.
Gameplay is just full of padding. The exploration element is awful, the mini games are awful.
I feel like i'll just collect the cg and move on.

An quality NTRMAN game, with surprisingly, a non-NTR route!

If you wished for a vanilla route, as long as you beat the mini-games no NTR will be forced on you.
However if you want that, there is plenty of material in the game.

I recommend at least one playthrough as the game only took me about 2-3 hours to complete counting retries in mini-games.

10/10, best NTRMAN game so far, Tenants of the Dead is a very close second.

This review contains spoilers. Open them at your own risk.

I'll start with prefacing that this was my first NTRMAN game, I'm generally not a huge fan of any kind of NTR but this game had interesting visuals (well endowed dark skinned ladies for the most part) so I gave it a whirl yesterday.

I played through every ending in one sitting, which took about 3-4 hours of my time. Overall I'd say I had a fun time with this game! It was a cool adventure, however - it was a one time thing only. Not planning on revisiting ever again because of its nature and overall storyline.

The game has what I consider to be a basic story - A massive virus outbreak had people dying left and right, but thankfully, 2 medical specialist who are a married couple found an island where with a special kind of flower - they can create a cure for it. The only problem is the tribe that is currently inhabiting this island, and their "trials". If you complete the trials and the island's deity deems you worthy, you can get the flowa' and get extracted on the choppa'. Sounds EZ, let's get into it!

There are 3 kind of "trials" you have to complete, in the form of 3 increasing difficulty minigames, which consist of:

1. Fishing with the village chief - basically, who can gather X amount of fish first,
2. Fistfight against the hunter of the village,
3. Sailing race against a kid.

If you lose in these minigames, your wife will have to offer herself to these people to grope->lick->clap her cheeks eventually. If you win, you can do the same to 2 tribe girls, which sounds reasonable (lol)

For my first time, I played the game as best I could, until dirty thoughts entered my mind. I lost the first match against the hunter, won against the other two, but then I thought - "Why not just have the other 2 guys get a round with her? There are no penetrations for the first time, just some groping and a fellatio, so it should be fine as long as I only lose once in every type of minigame. - I ultimately got the (canonical) happy ending I believe.

The second playthrough was full-on cuck mode. I let everyone had their way with her, and in all honesty, that was a bad experience. Even though the scenes are hot as hell, you KNOW you could've won the minigame, but you didn't. It's like you WANTED this to happen. I tried narrating it by - "She cheated on me so many times, now she will get what she wants. No, she will get more. Much more. So much more that she won't be able to walk. Yeah go get her, guys, mess her up real bad. Choke on dicks you cheap slut!Oh wait, let me get my camera!" Needless to say, the wife slowly succumbs to black ochinchins (or plum-plums, as the primitives call it), and your reward at the end of the story is...
My 3rd playthrough I went the ultra chad route. I won every match, banged every tribe girl, life was good until - and I believe this is inevitable because of the storyline - Pretty disappointing that you can't have every girl even though you emerge victorious in every trial!

So again, fun game overall, superb JP voice acting, but ngl, I feel corrupted after playing, that's why I can only rate this game as a 4/5. Time for a new adventure! See you space cowboy...

This was my first game from NTRMAN and i have to say i was pleasently suprised. I did not expect to have so much fun with this game and the story. Thanks to this i kinda enjoy the NTR genre a little now.
I did 3 Playthroughs to unlock all the scenes and they were all very good designed and i enjoyd them all.
Since you can go a complete no NTR run, i can recommend this game to everyone. The Story is good, and the minigames kinda fun.

What I like the most about NTRMAN is the way he keep improving some aspects to his games. It's something that I have to respect, especailly for a man who only make NTR contents, he's like God for cucks.

With that being said, I wish he were to make the game even more and more humiliated or at the very least experiment with other dynamic of NTR/Cuckold as well. Because the characters and everything in this game, it's something we have already seen before, the same old brat shota (which I was never really a fan of), the same old ugly bastard (which sometimes work, sometimes doesn't) and the same old roid rage bully (who's my favorite)
it's a boring character trope and the way he give them zero to none personality, it's even more worse.

This is an excellent game with impressive animations and easy access to explicit scenes. The game allows players to avoid NTR and includes the unique feature of stealing women from savages, adding an interesting dynamic. The combination of these elements makes for an engaging and enjoyable experience.

A decent game, not too bad not too good. Feel like a little side story to hint the zombie world with many disasters.
I love a game with an interesting story but it was too short. Hence the build-up is almost nonexistence, the h-scenes don't give much that NTRman -ish and it cause the story to be shallow.
The visual is the huge plus but the rest is just meh

Very mediocre product.
Although, the visuals are extremely good, the gameplay and the story are just mediocre.

Cons:
-No corruption whatsoever.(You start the game, 2 minutes in you can make the girl give everyone a blowjob, 10 minutes in she has sex with whomever)
-Story is pretty bad. ( You arrive at some island in search of some cure that killed half the planet, villagers say they will give it to you if you pass trials but if you lose they will have sex with your wife)
-Even though there are a lot of animated H scenes, they don't offer much variation and creativity. (Blowjob, cunnilingus, sex in a few poses like missionary or doggy, then standard gangbang sex in a few poses, then the same thing for the girls that you can fuck).

Pros:
-Good visuals (CG and in-game textures alike, porn scenes are animated)
-Main heroines are voiced (even if voices don't really match them, still a good side)
-NTR avoidable (this game is as well).

Really tried to jerk off to this, but this is just too cheap. An empty game, empty characters, no gameplay, no story. I think that's the third game from this studio that I play (first was about an inn and the second was about some zombie apocalypse?) and this one is currently the worst out of three.

Really liked this game, my personal hobby is to play ntr games as wholsome as possible and avoid any ntr scenes, so far in this regard legendary strangers and arrival of the goddes had best wholsome endings (also, not a fan of VN games, really glad this isnt one of them)

NTRMAN games arent just the same anymore. The game tries to do everything a typical NTR game does but i just didnt get that horny feeling when i was playing through his old games like Adel Inn or Camp with Mom.

One of the reasons could be that i did not really feel invested in the characters so whenever John gets cucked you just dont get the NTR'd feeling. Gameplay is another reason I did not enjoy the game as much. I get that he is trying to improve the game by adding minigames and stuff but I hope he did the same using his old VN style than whatever this is.

The premise isnt helping too as the plot is so unrealistic with us agreeing to lend our wife's body if we lose the rituals lmao. NTRMAN's stories used to be more simple, grounded and realistic like managing a bar and lending out your wife for an extra buck, housewives and mothers who cheat on their son's friends and stuff where we felt kind of invested on the characters. Just when i thought he got his mojo back with Tenants of the Dead, he dipped again with this game. I hope the he improves and goes back to his good old simple stories like before.

NTRMAN did not disappoint on his art though. The art is still awesome, the female characters look absolutely juicy and fuckable. Just wish the story was good to complement the art. I would still recommend everyone to give it a try once for its amazing art or if you wanna just catch up on the NTRMAN game lore.

ntrman is a someone who doesn't disappoint went its comes to the tag NTR itself. The gameplay is fun and appealing as well as the soundtrack while playing some of the minigames. There should be an "instant loss" button instead of wasting time while playing these mini games.

If you would show me this game without the amazing art from NTRMAN i'll rate it 2/5 because it was boring as fuck.

Luckily you can skip most of it, and again, the art from NTRMAN it's superb in every game of his so just because of that i feel like it's an above average h-game and should be played.
Also i had 2 or 3 game breaking bugs while playing which made it really annoying to get all the endings so pro tip: save everytime.

I preferred Tenants of the Dead a lot more tbh.

idk what I was expecting seeing the NTR tag and "NTRMAN" but I just liked the artstyle and some of the sex scenes - minus the NTR
pleasant VA
interesting setting
terrible premise - NTR just seems way too forced; guess it's intended for a certain audience which I am probably not
the performance of this game is terrible. Maybe it's cause I'm playing this on a laptop and not my main machine, but nevertheless, the biggest problems I've had so far were:
- dialogue would take too long to actually appear when interacting (probably from loading all sorts of high-res objects?)
- you can get punted by chickens or NPCs which somehow "lassos" your movement, causing you to get dragged in the direction you were last hit by the NPC.
- dialogue would start twice for some reason but it would continue as normal

anyways other points to note:
- the choices in your dialogue are very limited: you cannot really develop any meaningful connection with any of the characters or build any rapport with those that take you through the trials: it all feels like some competition in which when the PC is the victor they end up receiving spite or resentment from their opponents. Either this is just intended because the tribals are supposed to be cold towards outsiders or whatever, or really because writing was lazy and hastened because probably most people were there to just fuck women with large tits or whatever so why bother
- movement could have been a bit better, for some reason it's SOMEHOW hardlocked so even after I tried to speedhack with CE it would still feel slow and sluggish. at least I could skip over the dialogue real fast

it's ok. ART is cool. PLOT is MEH... and the animations are also kinda MEH. not my fave genre but I won't make it too personal or a huge issue, just gonna try to be objective af
