RPGM - Completed - Crimson Lotus Soaring Pure Flame [v1.04] [NoTears]

i only have one issue with this game, and its mostly in the NTR route. to clarify - im not one of those idiots who just hate on it because NTR, im going to come at this from a different angle

basically i think the development of NTR between Flare and Guido could have been better, and i think it could have had more scenes. you wanna know how many scenes are between Flare and Guido, aside from that one cuck ending? around 4. comparatively, Kenji gets like.. ~12 of just Flare, then what, another 12 for the rest of the girls lol? i get he's the main male character, so of course there will be more scenes for him, but i think there is still a major imbalance in the amount of scenes for Guido and the amount of scenes for Kenji. it makes one route look very disproportionately rewarding to the other, and i didnt like it

having said that! the game is great in every other aspect. i like the characters. i like the scenes, they were hot. i liked the plot, i guess? i liked how they fused VN with RPGM, that's something very unique. i liked the gameplay, since it was easy and relaxed RPGM combat (no grind). i liked the artwork, very high quality

i would recommend you play this :^)

Well this game was very disappointing coming from the demo of this developer's other game that is a platformer. At least the pregnancy and art/visuals are still pretty good. The gameplay was non-existent and only way to see non-story sex scenes was via losing, which you REALLY have to go out of your way in this one to be able to do it. I wonder why they made a game when they clearly didn't care about making a game...

Game is awful and pretty much has no H. Even if I lose to mob or boss it is still fucking game over and no hold works no matter what like what the fuck. I shouldn't have to try losing at every stage or something to find a way to friggin lose without game over just to unlock the ability to be grabbed... this is a retarded extra step that shouldn't be there. Not even worth the hassle

Made a unique use of pregnancy mechanism. Tried a lot of ntr games but most of them had pregnant ending but not mid game pregnancy was not so common, and this had them which was very good i like them.

This chick Flare hooks up with a guy she barely knows seemingly on a whim and starts calling him "Lord (whatever his name was)". Ok then.

Then she gets railed by this obnoxious chad thundercock who she apparently had the hots for and asked out beforehand, so it's NTR kinda but absolutely not really,

The battles are utterly pointless and mind numbingly easy, just come up behind monsters for a "surprise attack" and spam whatever works. You have to really want to be impregnated by monsters.

The guy she's trying to "save" doesn't need saving so that's another thing that's utterly pointless.

The art isn't even that good, this is one of those rare games where I seriously thought, "I should delete this".

Tries to do everything, ends up doing nothing great.

The gameplay is painfully generic, zero strategy required, just click and move. The story and H-scenes include literally every single Japanese rpgm H-game trope, and while none of them are executed badly, none of them are executed well either.

The world is sterile, and getting the endings is unintuitive. In short, it is the epitome of average. Would not recommend unless you've exhausted every good rpgm H-game.

Art 9/10: Art quality varies a lot. The best quality being that chair with restraint and laser pic in preview, but most of the other pics seem to be of less effort? Overall quality not bad. Anatomy seems a little off sometimes. Has great x-ray animation, but the images are static. Not a fan of the side character loli designs.

Writing 1-10/10: Wildly varies, tries to be comedic but isn't really funny. Sex scenes are excellently written but the exaggerated "a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a" or the "cummmmmmmmmmmmmmm" etc should be cut (including the voice acting for this part, it's just so unrealistic). The story is overall not very strong, but you're not playing this for the plot.

Gameplay 5/10: There's no challenge, no struggle, no stakes, and therefore no real sense of power loss. There's never a real threat to your character. Bad ends require a real effort to lose. Would be more immersive if each enemy was somewhat a threat to player hp. The gameplay is a delivery tool for the h-scenes and nothing more.

Playability 10/10: Encountered no bugs on my run. Has multiple scenes with each mob, boss, male protagonist and male antagonist. Serveral different endings for replay value if you're into that.

Pros:
- Caters very well to rape, breeding, womb internal view, impregnation, birth, and lactation kinks
- NTR avoidable, Virgin run possible, Multiple endings for you to play how you want
- Many endings and many scenes with different mobs & bosses
- Internal view animated
- Art style is overall good
- Pregnancy mechanism, scenes, writing are top tier
- Has good amount of voice acting

Cons:
- Art quality could be higher, especially since there's no animation (except the internal view) Noticeable difference between chair pic and the rest
- Plot writing and gameplay are very weak

Highly recommend if you're at all into impregnation, x-ray/internal view, forced breeding, or interspecies breeding. Overall good but a few flaws hold this game back from 10/10

I will talk mainly about porn genre/quality so you can get the idea of what you are going into .The gameplay is as generic RPGM as it gets, not too grindy though.

The game has mix bag of a lot of kinks which makes the game spread pretty thin even thought there are good number of CGs so people who looking for specific stuff might feel disappointed and enjoyable for people who okay with most kink.

About 50% of scenes are mix bags for degenerate fuck like me aka rape,ntr,gangbang, monster, pregnancy etc. But since there are so many tags it spread very thin. ex. Full blown NTR isnt the main focus at all here, there are like 10%? It is mostly rape. The selling point of this game tho is Pregnancy which done very well, one of the best out there imo.

For the other half...Surprisingly The content pretty focus on cuckrito with him having atleast TWO 3-stage scenes for all heroine, and even ending for most of them + a few harem scene. Im surprised that he isnt in the frontpage of the game.

EDIT: Since Im sad lonely fuck I went in and count how many scenes kirito v6.9 got.

Excluding cucked scene my Dude has a total of 44 fucking scenes out of 76 lmao. 27 of which doesnt even involve the main heroine at all(pink hair girl)
It is this mf game at this point lmao.

For a game that shouldn't be my cup of tea (not a fan of NTR), gotta say that I've enjoyed it.

For starters, the pure love route isn't, as people already said, an afterthought. Almost half of the scenes are in that route, it has different final bosses and the story changes quite a lot.

Second, I do like how they treated the dark route. Unless you let one character break the heroine completely (and you have plenty of space to see all the scenes and keep her unbroken), she still has a shot at having a happy ending. Not only that, but three of the main characters, included Flare, develop a LOT in the dark route (Flare is kinda static in the pure love route, because there she just keep winning, so she isn't forced to mature and compromise).

The gameplay per se has an interesting idea... that is rendered moot once you learn Stun Thrust. That move can win EVERY battle in the game, without the need to heal yourself, so long as you kept leveling (and seeing how it can oneshot every normal enemy, and in the last two zones every normal enemy give you enough exp to level up, you'll easily end at level 50+, more than enough to curbstomp everything in your way). A pity, but if you can resist to spam Stun Thrust, the idea behind the Rock Paper Scizors system makes you think a bit more in the battles (if used properly still lets you curbstomp enemies, but in a more strategic way, instead of just letting the Z button pushed and see everything die)

Gameplay aside, my only complain, and it has more to do with my tastes, is how little anal and multiple penetration scenes are. Technically you can develop every part of Flare to Level S, but, at least in my case, I couldn't do it without letting her broke, because there are barely any scene that trains her ass, and once you beat the first boss, the only one you can spam is one of the scenes that break her little by little, so I was forced to finish my Happy dark route with an S rating on everything but her ass, which just got an A (and I needed just 9 more times with her ass used, the scene I'm talking about adds 5 uses)

Usually I'd give it a 3, or i'd specify that it's really a 3.5 instead of a 4, but the fact that even with being a NTR game I like it pushed it's score that half point for me.

I can give this game 4 stars. It is not the greatest game, and one of my posts basically said what the main problem is. Pick the strongest ability and you really never get threatened enough for anything to matter. The H stuff is gated in an awkward way, but adds an interesting twist to the story as well as combat. I think most of the endings are not worth my time trying to obtain.

Why am I giving this 4 stars you ask? I like the art and after beating the game I unlocked the rest of the gallery. May likely never play this game again, but for the couple hours it took to go from start to finish I was entertained.

At the end of the day I can easily see how someone else can give this game one or two stars if you focus on what this game does not do well. Randomly getting knocked up is for the most part probably not my cup of tea. I feel the way this game handles it was enjoyable enough to me. The things this game tries to do, are implemented in a way I find fun. The replayability is almost non-existent being probably the main drawback I find this game has.

All in all, I think this was a good distraction for a few hours and I'd like to see more at some point down the line.

"Animated" they said, nope, 95% is static images, the rest is just one repetitive placeholder animation repeated for every enemy, the devs tried to make the characters interesting, they tried to make the story and the endings interesting, but the pacing is just, wrong, the characters are acting far too naive, or foolish, or absurd, so I just completely gave up on trying to follow the story.
Combat is literally, select strongest skill, hold Z, sometimes heal. Literally.

From the gallery apparently there's more interesting events happening like, befriending the enemies, keeping your partner safe, and so on, there's even a story path for remaining pure, but in order to make me care about these things you need to create good characters, not this.

So, you can just drop the full gallery save and ignore the actual game. Regardless, you will not have fun.

As a turn based combat/adventure kind of game, it's mediocre. The enemies shower you with exp and items as you progress. You can also opt to enter the gallery room and obtain the debug item that nukes any battle you happen to enter.

As a hentai game, it's fantastic. The main things to see here are NTR, pregnancy and corruption. Though, you do need to lose in battle once to unlock the in battle/dungeon pregnancy aspect of it. Many scenes are also voiced. Nice little touches like corruption progression on body parts and animated fertilization.

Overall, thoroughly enjoyed it and recommend for anyone to play or enjoy the gallery, as there is an unlocker sitting right there.

The combination of interspecies sex and NTR is a very rare breed, especially nowadays when beast content is banned on a lot of websites, making the creation of such a game less lucrative for the developer.

NoTears decided to do their own thing and go all out on the aspect they seem to love the most: Interspecies impregnation.

For lovers of detailed impregnation the game is a true feast: Every partner/species has unique sperm with a unique fertilization animation as well.

Even the ero menu is exceptionally lewd as it shows the mass of sperm (from each species) battling for access to the FMCs ovum, all nicely animated so one can really see these swimmers at work. It's even possible to lag the game by allowing too much sperm to enter her womb, as it just gets more and more and more (that is not a downside, but purely optional. You'd have to "work" for it to happen, and it's more likely for her to get pregnant before her womb gets filled with this much sperm).

The impregnation mechanic alone is a dream come true for fans of the kink and honestly warrants a high rating. Combined with my personal preference for NTR, this game gets a 5/5 from me as it's so rare to see all these kinks in one place. There's also a pure love / harem route for people who don't want the FMC corrupted.

Fully recommended to fans of interspecies impregnation with detailed fertilization.

This game suffers from the same issue that most doujin games do. It's not large enough. But to blame that on the makers and not on my own insatiable desire would be a fault.

Anyhow, I think this game is excellent. NTR is avoidable. Not only that, but the non-NTR route actually has sex content?! Holy shit? The non-NTR route isn't just an afterthought? It actually might have just as many scenes as the actual NTR route, which is astounding.

There are two main routes to this story, the one in which you lose at least once before completing the 3rd dungeon, and the one in which you don't. NTR is based on loss, but admittedly, it is pretty dangerous right at the start of the game. Game gets considerably easier from there.

Game is very heavy on the pregnancy fetish, but I don't mind that at all. I am into it.

Anyway, the Excellent Rating is for actually having two routes and not just having an afterthought pure route.

Oh wow the reviews. I haven't seen a gathering of retards this large since the Third Reich.

Gameplay 3/5
Basic RPGM stuff with rape. Also to be noted, it's less grindier(is that a word?) once you get the plus sword. That's pretty much it. Oh yeah it's laggy on Joiplay.

Plot 420/69
MOTHER OF FUCK THE WRITING. It's insanely hot like, damn. I can't describe like, how? The way they write Flame's lines is so fucking perfect. Pregnancy is not even my thing yet I blasted the ceilings with nut. What a piece of art.

Art 911/420
Sweet? No, this thing singlehandedly created diabetes. The majority of the standing pictures are animated, hot tits hot dicks hot poses, facially expressive(for anime style) and the transformation scenes are cool asf.

TL;DR
Masterpiece. 5/5.

Gonna give this game a 4 because it's not terrible... just generic. The art is hit and miss too, some images are fantastic and the character looks really hot, then all of a sudden some of the images are just bad as if the artist got tired during that one and gave up. Gameplay doesn't have much of a challenge if you fight every enemy on screen, the xp will carry you high enough to beat the game without a grind.

This game has a pretty mediocre and simple history, it is not exactly a history with bad development, but it could have been better.You basically play as a hot girl named Flare who becomes a magical girl and needs to fight an evil organization to protect her loved ones and the city.
About the H content, this game is pretty focused on rape, impregnantion , pregnancy and birth content, as a fan of pregnancy,birth,impregnantion I'm very satisfied, this is probably one of the few games tagged as "pregnancy" with real pregnancy content
About the pregnancy, this game has a pregnancy / birth mechanic where the heroine can get pregnant by every enemy that cums inside her.If the heroine gets pregnant during the battles, the game eventually show her giving birth to the baby of the enemy who impregnanted her (goblins, low ranking demons, humans and others). Also most of bad endings have pregnancy with birth content.
This game also has H attacks during the battle where the horny enemies may try to rape and impregnate the heroine,to unlock both pregnancy/birth mechanic and H attacks during battles, you need to lose at least once to the first 3 bosses (The cores, slime and goblin)

I's got some nice fetish content and isn't grindy at all, but man, games these days have no build up. You just get raped right off the bat and that's it, it just keeps happening. It's like every game plays like an NPC game.

Artwork is competent, combat is press A to gain a level, then after a few levels you can defeat the boss easily. Not a bad filler game, just not nuanced.

This game can be best described by the phrase "jack of all trades, master of none."

It can't seem to decide what it wants to be: female protagonist corruption game or a male protagonist harem/ntr game, vn or rpgmaker game, edgy magical girl deconstruction or the standard magical girl/sentai storyline played completely straight. As a result, everything is extremely superficial especially the combat. I recommend using the cheat weapon in the recollection room to make getting through missions faster. That alone may bump the experience up to three stars.

I was unprepared for how refreshing the game was. The H-scenes weren't revolutionary or anything, although the voicing was nice and there was plenty of variety...

The big thing was how simple the dungeons were and how the enemies were clearly designed to springboard the player towards being flagrantly OP. The final enemies give 60k EXP each and can be one-shot pretty easily by the skills you unavoidably have by the time you reach them. You legitimately have to TRY to lose on the Pure Route to get bumped onto Neutral and NTR routes. And since there's apparently a decent amount of variation in what can happen, plot-wise, players can either fiddle around with that or look up a guide or just unlock things in the Memory Room.

It's an H-game. So what if the levels are linear and small and the combat is so tediously easy it might as well not be there on the Pure Route? This was fun to play, easy to fap to, translated well, VOICED, and has plenty of content for a fairly wide audience.

The only thing keeping that rating from five-stars is the lack of replay value. I don't actually want to figure out how to get everything that isn't straight-up NTR or boss-loss content when I can just unlock it all and view the scenes...and once I've done that, I'm good. This was so simple and satisfying that I feel kind of bad for not paying the team behind this...
