Others - Completed - Azure Orphanage [v1.07] [cominami]

This game killed me emotionally and i cant believe i completed it, let me explain.

Pros: The story is pretty far-fetched but not cringe worthy. This game got charm and is a JRPG/fire emblem copycat which i like alot. The music and animations are pretty top-notched as well. There is a maiden run and a training level for grind enthusiasts (same as Sacred Stones). Also, it has some slight resemblances with Genealogy of Holy War.

Now the cons, buckle in because i have a lot to say: Azure Orphanage is highly focused on Gōkan and NTR which aren't my cup of tea. The translation and dialogues are broken beyond belief in some instances. The h-scenes are forced and CGI only. It is a somewhat time consuming game and can easily sink 20hrs+ in order to unlock the true ending. You can't train some of your characters (Elwy) and forced to play as them during battles. There is no New Game+ or second class for your characters which is slightly disappointing. After chapter 5, the game feels dragged and sort of wish for it to end. There is minor optimization issues but that could've been my cpu.

Conclusion: To me, this is a like and hate game. I mostly like it for its fire emblem features but hate for its forced gōkan and NTR cutscenes. Final rating: 3.7/5

Oh, i almost forgot: Fuck Karl

Great story and gameplay! If you are here for plot, and you like Fire Emblem type games, this would not let you down.

It takes some time for the story to fully start, but the wait is worth it. You should try it!

A VERY unavoidable NTR-focused game.
+ Fire Emblem element is fine. Normal difficulty is easy: you don't have to reset every level-up for better stats, deaths are not punished, and some characters can solo the map with some potions. Therefore, Hard difficulty is advised if you want a more strategic gameplay experience.
+ Story actually makes sense for a NTR game. Characters are more or less developed, even the bad guys.
- Weapon/Inventory management is annoying.
- IF route (virgin route) ends after like 2 stages after the split. Lewd route is pretty much the main game. The writer can craft a wholesome story with plot twists, but insert so much depravity in it, it's weird.
- CGs are recycled too much. And while I'm quite into the "Ugly-dirty man fucking pretty girl" fetish, having it played in 90% of the scenes is just gross.

With all that said, I still give it a 5/5 rating because I want this kind of game format to be more popular.

nice game had an unique experience, nice cgs and animation, story was great maybe best of 2024 already in my top 3 I want to thanks the devs and artist behind this game hope they keep up with such a fantastic work again!

Pros:
-Many scenes
-Some sort of lewdness tracking(at least)
-Some scenes include hymen taking and a bit of blood
Cons:
-Most of the scenes are just a variation of one scene
-Very slow gameplay(especially, tedious and slow fights that require your constand button clicking while the fights are awfully easy and boring)
-Strange artstyle, especially penises...

Conclusion:
Skip. If you're interested, just open a gallery with mtool, it's hyper easy, and look at the scenes (and you will lose your interest fast)

version 1.07

it has a decent story but as a porn game it's subpar. sex scenes are not animated. still pictures with "X-ray" vision which usually moves in penetrations. but paired with the static picture it feels out of place.

there is no load game function so if you want to test something you have to alt+f4 out of the game.

furthermore why do these hentai games keep insisting on disgusting smegma filled penises in the description. it's a boring cliché to always have the "bad guy" a smelly penis with a lot of smegma it's disgusting. it wasn't drawn just on the text. and the text of sex scenes is so braindead. same old babbling and lots of text for no reason. it's so boring. lines after lines having nearly no meanings just to lengthen the sex scene with the same static image. no erotic build up or anything just blabbering. although it might be translation problem i dont know.

the sex art is not that good either. some are decent tho.

gameplay is just a budget fireemblem, many things/mechanics being worse than that 30year old game... i guess it's still more fun than usual rpgm engine fights but no battlefuck and same old tropes. no creativity.

the story and characters are interesting, but as a porn game it fails. if not for the story i would have given it 1/5

I almost didn't play this, because the art didn't feel right, but I am glad I did.

This is both a great tactical game AND a really emotional, deep and engaging story. It made me cry in the end. The women are all relatable and their struggles feel honest and heartfelt. In all this, it's not entirely formulaic. There's NTR but it doesn't sacrifice the story for it. The true end (which is easy enough to achieve) is a bittersweet happy end.

5 Stars aren't enough really. Super great game that showcases how you overcome your own demons.

While the initial preview pictures/ main title picture may not inspire confidence in this game (looking like another generic quick wank game), this game is actually a hidden gem. Gameplay is unique (compared to normal RPGM games) and fun (but has it's downsides). Story is 10/10 (it can even rival other legendary Story focused h games like demon roots and Irisfield games (how to build a kingdom). The H scenes are alright, many repeated H scenes for reuse for many scenes brings down the score a bit, and the artstyle while okay is not that great compared to other artists.

Gameplay. Fire emblem/ tactics based turn based movement (like x com or some shit). BIG DOWNSIDE is that there are durability on some weapons, like you can use them 30 times and bam, they are gone (you have to buy another one, but they are cheap enough). There are infinite use weapons and they are decent enough to clear the game on normal difficulty. The most expensive weapons cannot even be bought while completing the game. I had 250k gold at the end game and the most expensive infinite use weapons are 500k. Replayability wise, you can only retain the upgraded infinite use weapons by use of points (you don't keep levels, items, etc) so level grinding is not useful for replayability. While the tactics based gameplay is pretty good, there are some questionable decisions that made it into the game that makes it unfun/bad (weapon durability, farming on repeatable quests give shit/extremely small amounts of gold). Collecting H scenes is more of a event collector type of way and progressing the story.

Story is AMAZING. The game is more like a VN with a tactics based side gameplay. Pretty linear story with ending choices at the end, whatever you do do not matter, just go full lust as the game intends it won't result in forced bad end (you can still pick the good true ending in the end).

H Scenes primarily focus on NTR. If you are a NTR lover you will be eating good. THERE IS A WIDE RANGE of repeated use of h scene pictures which may make the h game scenes stale. There is only few MMF+ (2-3) scenes.

TLDR: Played for the porn, stayed for the story. Clear time of IF route and Main route (true ending) is 27 hours and 22 mins. Would recommend going IF route first (shorter) and going main route after.

I was initially dubious about this game, but after playing it I can finally say that I was so wrong. In this review I'll express my positive and also negative opinions about the aspects and structure of the game. If you don't have anything to do feel free to read it.

Attention: some spoilers are inside this review, but you can skip them as they will be very focused, personal opinions.

Let's start with the story:
I'd rate it 5/5, no doubt about it.

The main roster of heroines are represented in such a way that they feel almost like real people. Their inner conflicts and their motivations is what makes the world which the game is set so alive. Even side characters, which were almost seen as irrelevant at the start of the story, will become more and more characterized during the course of it. They are not just black and white characters, like those of cliches stories, but they are realistic, lively and most importantly, human characters (just with a bit of absurdity for ero content obviously).

Speaking about the theme and the plot of the story, I think that it is very solid and well structured. They surely went far and above the majority of nowadays H-games, in which very often they just use a stupid excuse just to insert ero-content like nukige-type games. In this story H-content is not just an extra part of the plot, but an essential part of it, but I'll leave it to you to discover it by yourselves.

But even jewels have their own defects, which they can't be ignored.
One of those negative aspects is that I feel some characters should have had more screen time, as sometimes they felt incomplete. These characters are mostly explained just in the side stories, but outside of it they don't receive such attention to details ( ).

I would also have preferred a more longer set of sub-quests for the other heroines ( ), as I felt they could have shined more if given more screetime.

Let's go now to the gameplay:
I'd rate it 4/5, very solid as a SRPG, but lacks some refinements.

The game is made for all type of people who like strategic games and for those who just want to see the story, as you can choose from easy to very hard difficulty and change it when you want. The game feels fluid to play and the battle animations of the main characters are quite good to see.

But a lot of flaws are present in these battle system, such as the uselessness of the shop for weapons, armors and magics for a good part of the game. The fact that some of the weapons need a lot of money to be purchased and that you need to grind money to obtain them felt like a burden instead as a good thing. Also, the main heroines' weapons were alredy quite good, and their improver versiones can be found just by progressing the story, so the shop felt even more useless.

Another thing that I didn't like about the battle sytem was the limited uses of some weapons, and it felt just an excuse to use the shop. Even more importantly, the fact that all special combined attacks had only a limit of 5 uses felt criminal, as to obtain them again you need to pay an absurd amount of money in a special shop you unlock later in the story. I would have preferred if those combined attacks could be used just once per map like Pruiere special skills, maintaining a balance in the game.

Now let's pass to the H-content:
I'd rate it 4/5 with enough context, but without it would be just a 3/5.

The cg scenes are not so bad, they just feel average or a little above that. Surely they are better that some AI sh*t I saw recently but the devs surely wasted a lot of opportunities. Some assets are even repeated among multiple different scenes, where the actions made by the character don't have sense with ehat is being told ( ). Also, the fact that there aren't group sex events with multiple female leads was a huge waste of potential ( ). I think that it should be mandatory to make group events of multiple females if you used multiple female characters in your story, and in this story there were multiple instances where it was perfect to fit them ( ).

Apart from the critics I made, I felt very satisfied by playing the game, and you should also play it, as such games are rare gems nowadays among AI garbage content and lazy h-games.

This is just the best game i`ve ever played from this site, amazing, every charachter is playable in some way, every character have unique story, special abilities, weak and strong sides. overal fighting is perfect,
h-scenes are 4/5 but i was playing it for 20 h not to fap but bacuse of the plot. and curiosity in what kind of ending i`ll see ... i shed a tear
to summurize:
plot 5/5
dialogues 5/5 (not how it is translated but what is originaly writtens is great)
h-scenes 4/5 ( maybe 5/5 because of engine limitations)
gameplay5/5
20-30 hours of interesting gameplay

One of the most intresting games, which includes very beautiful stylistics, due to which the gameplay becomes interesting (animations make everything much more interesting and dynamic).

The story is pretty short, but there's a choice of 1) seeing a lot of horney content and remaining a shameless bastard, or 2) the path of virginity. I very rarely, almost never remember fictional girls on screen in games like this, but this game changed all that.

I definitely recommend this product primarily for those who came for the beautiful artwork and moderately good gameplay at 4/5 with ++

The fact that this game hasn't recieved more of a spotlight is a crime.
It's an absolute masterpiece and achieves everything it attempts to do with gusto:
-Fantastic NTR-story with intelligent heroines, villains and love-interest who all have cohesive character motivations and development? Check.
-Actual fun, Fire Emblem-inspired gameplay with it's own unique twists that sets it apart from literally every game on this site? Check.
-Fantastic writing and art for every scene, of which there are literally over a 100 of in the gallery with a very decent number of different girls? Check.

This game is the closest to a pure 5/5 I have played here in a loooong while.
You gotta love these tags to love this game...
...But ooooh boy, if you like Ntr, good writing and a good SRPG, then it's christmas for you, you sick animal

Need 30 hours just to completed this game.

What a fantastic game. The story is masterpiece.
The character feels so humanly, all of them has their own greatness and weakness.
The gameplay is also unique and interesting, i never got bored at it.
There are also some impressive music.

Story:
A masterpiece, very unexpecting for a corruption ntr game.
It is very character driven, and it focuses a lot on the relationships between the cast.
There are 7 heroines and they all get their backstory fleshed out. Even most of the male cast are well developed.
It is mostly linear, there's a branch early on where the game asks you to choose between the main route and the if route.
And at the end of the main route you can kind of choose your ending depending on corruption.
I'm not certain but I think you also need to complete all heroines' personal stories for the true ending.
If you want to do a virgin run, you have to do so on the if route.
The if route is much shorter and doesn't have any of the payoff, so it's mostly side content.

The game primarily cycles between 3 POVs, the 2 main heroines Nina and Amilia, and the male MC Elwy.
The only established couple at the start is Penelope and Lenny, but Nina and Amilia are both revealed to have a crush on Elwy since childhood.
Unlike most cuck MCs, Elwy is strong, loved by most, doesn't give up, and makes decisions believable for his character.
The story might start a little slow, but it picks up with a whole of series of reveals starting at chapter 7.

Gameplay:
SRPG gameplay similar to fire emblem.
You can change the difficulty in game, and the quick difficulty also places a tile on the map that lets you skip the stage entirely.
Most weapons are limited use like in fire emblem.
Personally, I hate limited use weapons. Luckily all the heroines start with an infinite use weapon and also get an upgrade to it later on.
The combination/special atks are also limited use and also take up an inventory slot, so i just hoarded those as well.
Some weapons have special cut-in animations, etc. but i pretty much never saw them as they always felt too good to use.
Conversely, the shop felt useless as I rarely needed to buy anything.
On defense, you are also forced to counterattack if you have a weapon that can reach in your inventory.
This may force you to consume charges on some of your rare weapons.

Audio:
Music is ok. It is a bit generic at times, but it does shine through during the hype scenes.
Unfortunately, when those scenes end, the sudden track switch is very apparent and jarring.
Some scenes are voice acted, a very small portion but it is there.
