RPGM - Completed - Bonds of Yachiyo [v1.0] [Aoi Tsuyukusa]

Bonds of Yachiyo:

• Story: Throughout the story you try to escape a nightmare of a situation as 2 best friends try to reunite after a strange earthquake caused them to fall into a dark hole.
• CG's: I have noticed that other people are calling it ai but personally i think there its ai as there really detailed and high quality something as of posting im unaware of a model that has the ability to do this and there are artist's credited in the credits, To get CG's you need to die or complete an ending.
• Gallery: Your able to rewatch 38 Scenes and 6 Endings However the endings are only the sex scenes and not the whole ending.
• Achivements: Your able to collect 17 achievements some being harder then others example being: Complete the game while still being a virgin and some that i have not clue on how to start on.
• Lenght: I finished the game in a bit more then 4 hours. this includes trying to get every death cg and 3 endings.
• Difficulty: The game has settings that allow you to make the enemies chase you slower, hide horror and show hints.
• Futa: Theres only 1 avoidable futa scene that you can get for failing a boss fight.
• Animations: None.
• Pro's: Hints, Forgiving gameplay, ability to skip watched scenes, Ability to skip most text without missing a lot.
• Con's: Nothing really that bad that is not personal preference.
• Final thoughs: The game is really good and im glad i tried it and i would really recommend it.

As a story I feel like this is fantastic. There's so much detail, memos full of information, and nearly every object in the world has unique text when you interact with it. The lore is tight, cohesive, clean - it's thematically extremely solid.


Except when it comes to the porn. You get a random mishmash of kinks from vore to cow girl to tentacle pit. None of it is tied into anything, it's not related to any lore outside of a throwaway line in one of the memos. It really feels like an afterthought.

Honestly I feel like it ruins the story whenever it crops up. The vibe is always completely contradictory to how the story presents sexual assault and enslavement. "Sex Scene Chiyo" will almost immediately be 100% down to fuck the second she catches a whiff of dick - but "Story Chiyo" isn't just sex adverse she's non-Akari adverse.


And I don't have any issue with an author using rape as horror. But the only way THIS is horror is if it's like, ironic and wants you to feel bad for getting horny over this sexualized horny cutscene. Which is, y'know, fucked up I guess? Unless that's the author's kink - to make people feel icky when aroused?? There's layers here, for certain.

I mean, there must be layers. Like I said, it's super well written. Why are the sex scenes so out of place?

No other complaints. I've only done one ending ( ), but it looks like there's still a bunch of endings. It would be a 10 / 10 if it just pushed the horror element more and forsook the porn. Absolutely worth the time either way.

Not overly scary on the horror elements. One or two possible jump scares if you forget that they could exist. Limited on items to reduce corruption so save often and use sparingly. Corruption does not contribute to other actions the characters will take and only will change the ending. The story is liner, but it is a good story. Worth playing. - The gallery is available to be unlocked without playing

I like it.
As a story go I wasn't really interested in reading but on the other hand I did 100% this game so I don't know.
The game has a nice range of different ending but... GOD does it need a skip scene button. I guess only people who play this game will agree whit me that when you try to 100% this game or you have a bad luck streek (especially in the boss fight) the dialog just repeats from the beginning every time a scene is triggered.
The game try's to be scary but ... eh Its just not doing it for me.
If we would try to compere it whit other RPGM horrors like "The Witch's House" its more safe on the scare scale.
Any way try and see it for your self as I recommend this game 10/10

10/10 scare the sh*t out of me but still cum :3. Even though i hate Ai but the story keep me hook for very long <3 make me miss corpe party. the puzzle is fun and the scene is interesting. so i don't know if it is Ai or not but i'm make sure you love the game.

Pretty good as far as RPGM games go, even if not for gameplay reasons so much. But I attribute that to the limitations of the format rather than the game itself.

Art is good, despite the comments on the thread about AI CGs, which I can't confirm or deny because I'm no expert on discerning signs of AI art unless there's a sixth finger or other body parts merging with clothing, which I didn't see. What I will say is that the art fits the game. I liked the style.

As for plot, if you've ever played the PS2 game Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly, this game's plot is around 70-75% that. Or at the very least, it's clear where Bonds of Yachiyo gets inspiration from. It's a story of two best friends who must come to terms with having to part one day, no matter how close they may be. I will say that I didn't expect to get any feels from this - I was just looking for a quick fap to be honest - but I stuck with the story and got a semi-good or decent one. It's not the best narrative I've seen in my life, but I will give it praise for eliciting emotions other than horniness out of me.

Oh, and make no mistake: it's got horror, more so than most games in the format, so if you scare easily, I must caution you that about 80-85% of the way through the game the game dials up that horror to 11. It's probably the most horror I've seen in a RPGM, or even any h-game. During the aforementioned 80-85% part of the story, I felt slightly unnerved, and the visual and audio design are pretty good for a RPGM, I must say. Good in the sense that both help support the horror atmosphere.

Gameplay-wise, it's got its... uniqueness, thanks to its insistence on leaning on horror. There are no standard RPGM fare fights where you go through menus to hit Attack or Skill or Defend. The parts where you can fight enemies, you just walk up to their sides or back and cut them down that way. Other times, you're just sneaking and staying out of enemies' lines of sight while you look for key items in order to progress through the story. It's nothing revolutionary, and to some that might be boring even for a RPGM, but I personally didn't mind. The gameplay at least fits the tone the game is trying to showcase. This game would be even better if it was in Unity or Unreal Engine, those would definitely scare my soul from my body. If it was in those formats, coupled with the incorporation of some rudimentary but sufficient combat and stealth mechanics, I would have awarded this game five stars.

I'd rate it 4.5. The .5 of that rating is carried by the game having references to Fatal Frame II which is my gold standard for survival horror games.

Not a bad game. It doesn't feel like a RPGM that someone just cranked out for a quick buck - the plot at the very least required more brainpower to utilize, more than what a desperate developer would typically use. If you have two or three hours to kill, I would recommend a pure playthrough to get the best ending, then if you want what you initially came for, just go to the gallery in the title menu and just approach the stars in the gallery, where you can unlock h-scenes that do not have major spoilers, or all at once.

Bonds of Yachiyo [v1.0]

Horror warning! if you weak against it you can enable horror reduced.

The gameplay pretty much similar to Corpse Party but horny .You find yourself and your friend trapped in nightmare world in your school. You only option is to run, hide and survive. every step you take it could be time to run or hiding, sometimes you have to solve puzzle where you at it. the gameplay keeps you constantly on edge.

Visually, the art is clearly AI-generated, but the devs made it work for me. Instead of feeling out of place, like a character holding a slightly different pose between scenes, or subtle shifts in facial expression, add to the uncanny atmosphere.

This is horror story based on Japanese horror tale, a girl get separated in strange world. You alone now have to explore the darkness alone, evading ghosts while trying to unravel the truth and reunite with your best friend. Corpse Party all over again, cant help it, it so similar.

The H-scenes primarily revolve around non-consensual encounters and gore, usually involving ghosts or supernatural entities. If you looking for quick fap i dont think you will, lets be honest, the atmosphere and the story will caught you. Interestingly, if you get raped by same thing often enough, you won’t always see the same scene. this can affect you and your friend ending so, careful dont get carried away lol.

Pros
+ Tense, atmospheric horror that keeps you on edge
+ Puzzles add variety and keep gameplay engaging
+ Corruption system adds replay value and affects the ending
+ Somehow AI-generated art can blend in with the scene
+ H-scenes can every time you repeat i

Cons
- Non-consensual and gore-based H-content (not for everyone)
- AI art(can be turn off for some people)
- Trial-and-error deaths can get frustrating when exploring(you can enable hint)

TL;DR: This game similar to Corpse Party. A horror game where you and your friend trapped in a nightmarish world, unable to fight back, only running, hiding, and solving puzzles. The art is AI-generated, while the H-content revolves around non-consensual encounters with ghosts and supernatural entities, it could influencing your story’s ending. This game isnt made for weak ass, kek.
