RPGM - CataclyZm [v0.31] [AmorousDezign]

While the game initially seems interesting and full of content, some major flaws start to show up as time goes on.

Pros
Decent art with a large variety of girls

Cons
There is a lust meter that takes forever to fill. If you had sex even like a day ago, you can be naked ready to go with a woman and then the MC says nope and the scene ends. This is horrible design for an erotic game.
The experience you get from fighting or reading books is abysmal and completely imbalanced. If you start on easy mode at level 10, you need well over a 1000 xp to go to 11 and yet fights are giving you like 7 xp and finding books when interacting with the world give 2 xp. This completely discourages a player from interacting with battles or objects in the world.
The hints for quests are extremely vague. One quest just says "find clues".
There are some bugs and object interactions that don't work correctly. Once you have the torch it should just automatically light up areas. Sometimes when I used the torch it didn't properly light up the screen so the whole dungeon was basically inaccessible.

Overall, while the game has promising tags and a variety of girls, it is completely held back by the poor gameplay.

an analysis in topics

a monster in the swamp that gives you about 600 to 750 damage.. even on easy, it only takes 2 hits from him to kill you and take you to the main menu screen.. and normally he follows you around the swamp map the moment you enter the map... which you need to go to if you want to complete some objectives.

in hard mode... killing 2 rats in the tavern basement takes forever... no blow hits... not even the rats hit you... and you don't kill them either... and it goes on like this for many minutes...


very little xp... you need about 1800 or so to level up to a certain initial level... and each monster I kill gives me 7 xp.
standard shops in the initial village don't even sell weapons and armor to make the boring RPG fight easier

There is a 'pay to win' tower that the NPC said is full of legendary equipment and women to fuck... but you can only enter if you know the dev's name.

The MC's photo changes according to the armor you equip on the character, even during the scenes.

In easy mode, all LIs start out madly in love with the MC with 100% affection in their status. But in hard mode, for non-patreon users, it's very difficult to progress due to the fights.

The game's kinks and fetishes are good, they're not standard. Between netori and other things.

The visuals of the LIs are good.

I wanted to love and enjoy this game as I'm into furry and impreg stuffs. However, this is the 3rd time I've tried to do a playthru of this game and I'm always met with frustrating mechanics and disappointing gameplay.

The couple of issues that I've had with this game are the lust mechanic (even if you and a lady were both naked and about to have sex, if you're out lust, you'll be forced to leave the sex scene like you are some senile old man who can't get it up anymore for some reason).

Tho there is a potion in game to raise your lust, the amount of time you have to gather ingredients just to create a single vial is too time consuming. (Please atleast add an option to obtain potions thru the cheat tower or let us buy it from the oracle).

Another thing is the RNG in some of the quests, like some of the quest just wants you to get stuck entering the same dungeons over and over again hoping for you to stumble into the correct one eventually. It's really frustrating to finish objectives this way.

I'd like to come back and play this game again someday (and hopefully get to have a decent playthru). I'm loving the art style and tho sex scenes are 2D CG's, I still find them hot.

Concept seems decent and graphics are pretty nice but other than that is typical ultra-grindy RPGM game with map 10 times too big for the amount of content.
Sure, there's 'easy' mode that rises all relations to 100, but it's completely broken and you can go all the way with the chick that will act like you're complete stranger the next moment.
To dev: Dude, it's amateur adult game, not a new Dragon Quest. You wont ever be filling it up with enough content to justify the size. And there's combat. It's just a default RPGM combat with OP opponents forcing player to grind...for what? There nothing rewarding about it. Either you should heavily customize the combat to make it more interesting, or get rid of it, as it kills all the fun you're trying to create with the world building (which is decent).

This is not just a game, it is a freaking world, i spent almost 20 hrs on Act 1 (i was playing on Hard mode), i love long games and it is been a long time since i found an Excellent long game like this

The story is great
The art is good
The game play is great

and it left room for the improvement, which is also great.

The game is great on its own, wanted to give it 4 stars cuz i felt like theres room for improvement, but then i figured theres no any significant issues so 5 stars it is.

When it comes to story, its there and its great but not often do you get updates about it.

Gameplay is fun and not too grindy, you can explore and do repeatable scenes. Theres multiple choices and usually 2 routes, good and evil.
I suggest you try the game so you see what im talking about.

When it comes to characters and art style, some are really unique and really good and some just feel really similar with not much difference.

Combat is not complicated at all, its simple enough which is good and fun.

Usually when theres a release, there might be bugs still but they get fixed fast. Also sometimes but rarely, the saves might not work good enough to progress story so you might need new game.

The game is lenghty in playtime, it took me maybe 40 hours to get to the current update.

You can already get an idea whats it about from these images, the updates come out every month or two.

I'd say try it if you have any interest in it.

Well, I just want to thank you for a game like this, I needed to play something like this, different and cool. Updates are regular and the developer is very engaged with the players. I'll follow you because I know there are a lot of good things coming from this .

One of the best games i played based on its category, I really like the art and design of this game, it has good character development and simple story but it is better than building something that is useless, the only questionable thing is the grinding but that has improved compared to before and is now more acceptable, this game unlike others categorized as vn has a very good decision system that is not for decoration.

time of the average or not so good, except for some characters, the depth of the relationships you can have is very limited, there is a lack of dialogue based on affection or changes in attitude for not mentioning that there are characters that seem incomplete, is better to complete the characters that already exist before adding more characters. An example would be to finish the pregnancy systems for the missing characters and add more dialogues related to pregnancy and children (it is one of my favorite systems and this dev is very good at it) .

This is my honest opinion, everything is subject to change since it is a game in development. I write this in version 0.23.

4.5/5

I'll start with the fact that the game is not completed and is under development, but there is already a lot of interesting things, for example, the choice of good and evil dates pumping, as they say in Russia, "From dirt to Graph" and you just feel that the hero is growing.A bunch of beautiful girls, and yes, although most of them have big breasts that some don't like, I assure you there are girls with normal breasts, so you don't need to worry about it.There is management and construction of interesting Dungeons and a bunch of everything.And this is just everything in the village, in a relatively small location.And imagine what will happen next!!! So I advise you to play the game the way it's cool.But yes, there are disadvantages in the game and these are bugs and too large screen resolution, and if the resolution can be corrected manually, then unfortunately the bugs are not so easy to fix and have to wait until they are fixed.And so everything is SUPER

Perfect game ever!!!! This isn't waste your time, trust me. Good story (a few still ongoing but it doesn't matter), big boobs, milf, and more milf. Just what I want, it's better to play with normal gameplay (I don't recommend to use cheat, it's not challenging) grinding and more grinding, just like masochist do.

This game is excellent. it's a good game to play for fun. it has lots of different characters there is Fury for lovers of this kind of content which even allows for the diversity of the player's relationships if it can have scenes from NTR which may not appeal to everyone but overall the game is easy to pick up with a fairly simple understanding of the gameplay.

Very nice graphics, relationship improvement, etc.
Momentarily "just" 4 stars, because the gameplay isn't totally smooth yet. Sometimes you can repeat an action limitless without time moving to afternoon/night and sometimes you think doing 1 simple thing and time jumps. And not quite clear what you should do in the village with the improvements. It's a bit vague. But if the developer could improve on that It'll be worth my 5 stars

This is a great RPG! Lots of things to do, lots of characters, options and great CG scenes. The developer is super nice and is crafting a beautiful world. The updates are frequent and contain lots of new content.

Probably one the best Netorase games on the site right now. The Father Fox and Susan route was really good and I wish it was much longer with much more scenes. I hope there will be more sharing scenes in the future.

Nice and appealing characters, good story so far and already lots of things (and girls) to do. One of the best ongoing games I've played in here, I'm looking forward to see what's to come and I really recommend supporting the dev who's really nice and listen to his community!

I like the game, the story and the MC and the Girls. The drafts are good imao and the dev is fast with new content and new pic. The story is complex, the quest good and the fantasy about the draft about the animal girls adorable.I have much fun to play the game.

When I first played I probably would have given a 4 because of how slow some of the mechanics were, but thankfully the game has improved since then. The dev actively listens to feedback and uses it to improve the game such as the aforementioned slow mechanics. I can understand it not being everyones cup of tea because of some of the kinks, some more extreme ones are optional, but if you are fine with the tags and enjoy rpg's with branching paths and a bunch of quest than I would sincerely recommend this one. Good rpgs with deep story, good art, a good selection of kinks and the game is honestly pretty big considering the dev still considers it to be just chapter 1 and plans to do a lot more. There's been a few issues with new builds no longer being compatible with past saves, but it should hopefully be figured out for good and the dev usually includes or post saves or a way to skip to new content.

This game has an amazing staff and answers all questions. Constant voting and ways to keep the community involved. And our voices are being heard for the upcoming content. Even though I wish there was more content. We can’t have everything just yet.

Bought the $1.5 tier many times and felt it is totally worthy
Wish there could be more teleporting points
Waiting for more Xavier scenes...
Can anyone improve the walkthrough? It has some typos and not showing maps & how to get ending portraits?

So far the game in my opinion is quite good, yes there will be parts where farming is a bit tedious, but that's part of the game concept, the MC is not your typical protagonist who gets everything for nothing, but he has to obtain several things based on effort, also the farming of this game is by far the most tedious I would say that it is the same as several others on the platform so I don't know why many are complaining about it.

I'm sorry if something was not understood or I wrote it wrong, English is not my native language
