VN - Ren'Py - Divimera [R12] [Redikal]

Version Played: R4.5
Time Played: Roughly 1.5 hours

I have held off for a while in downloading this game, since the reviews are all highly positive and the setting and artstyle seemed right down my alley, so expectations were very high. I say this because this review is probably going to seem overly critical and I want to stress early on that anything negative I say comes from my high expectations as I fully expect this game to turn out amazing...eventually.

To begin with, in spite of being in the ubiquitous Renpy engine, the game shows a ton of polish and care. From the UI to the sound design, this looks and sounds like a product you would expect to see on a shelf. This is of course to say nothing of the original artstyle and writing, which are both of high quality. The setting and story are intriguing and (currently) not off putting in spite of their dark implications and progression. This truly feels like it will be an adult adventure game instead of just a series of smutty images with hastily prepared text.

Positives
+ Tremendous polish even at this early stage
+ Extremely unique setting and story
+ Hot women and art with animations

Negatives
- Currently very short
- Character body art shows weirdly detailed musculature when in the nude that is slightly off putting
- Women's faces a little same-y in a way that's hard to describe
- Is currently more focused on the story than the characters (though I'm hoping that will change as development progresses)

I know that none of that sounds particularly bad, but I cannot stress enough just how little content there is here at this stage. To be sure, there are sex scenes, including those with full penetration, but the story barely gets started before you're seeing a "to be continued..." screen. Honestly, this feels like more of a proof of concept. Given the level of detail here and the time it takes to create, I don't expect there to be a substantial amount of content here for at least one full year. On the flipside, if ever there was a game worthy of a Patreon sub, it's this one.

Final bush-related rant:
As much as I appreciate that they are throwing us bush lovers a bone, they are going to have to do better than a little fringe around the lips. I can understand if they don't want to go period-appropriate jungle, but this is honestly just too little. I think a key thing to consider here is that bush allows the creator to distinguish the characters even beyond face or hair, so I really hope that they go a bit further with this and give us some nice thick bush on some ladies.

Note to devs: This is an amazing start which I am more than happy to throw real money at as it goes along. Please reevaluate the art in several areas and stay the course. Thank you so much for attempting to bring adult entertainment to a higher level.

I love everthing about this game. Art style , smooth animations, storytelling , dialogs, mysteries. I really feel like reading a book. Feels like this events can be happening in a fantasy universe, Unlike other adult games. Most of the other adult games stories are not mature , not realistic in itself and even childish. But this game is differant. Not like the others. I love your work.

Ps: I am not native english speaker. Sorry for my grammar mistakes.

Love the artstyle
Love the kinda gothic setting
Love the elements of horror and mystery
The characters are really in tune with the enviroment
It could be a little more sandboxy but thats just my taste
The storytelling and the dialogues are realistic and make you feel like you are there.
Love the bitchy attitude of the mother cant wait for later...
Feels like a pretty awesome nsfw visual novel but has too much potential.
Dont know if it runs on renpy so the developer may tune it as he likes so..

A wonderful game, with high-quality Storytelling. A good drawing fits perfectly into the setting of this game. I highly recommend you to familiarize yourself, especially considering the previous work of the developer. BOOGADABA!

The art is wonderful, beautiful bodies and bright colors that contrast with the background and also with the story, that (as far as R4.5) suggest a very deep and pretty dark development.
The story itself is interesting so far and I am looking forward to new updates.
The UI could be improved, it looks a bit clunky.

Rare to see a game on here with characters that don't feel like they were written by someone who has never seen a naked woman. The art is great and the story is actually somewhat interesting, my only gripe with the game is the MC constantly being confused as a child.

The story is very engaging and the art is excellently done. A little bit more of polishing on the animations and I think this game would be on my personal top 5. Overall, I am looking forward to seeing this work towards its full development.

The story is captivating, mystery with lovecraft vibes, the writing is good, the art style is pretty. Point and click gameplay with some branching paths/sidequests. I hope this game development progressess well and is not abandoned halfway through, would be such a shame!

Based on the Divimera R4 update I can tell this is a game that the moment you start you can't stop, the story is great, the characters are interesting and are not one dimensional, the art style is supreme and you can tell the Devs put a lot of love into making this game, every time I explore the island for answers I keep coming back for more, the diary system is simple and you will never feel lost while you play this game.

I can't recommend this game enough, so give it a try and see for yourself you won't be disappointed if you like mystery games.

This project is epic! One of my favorites, always looking forward to new updates.
The plot, characters and art are all top tier and fit well together. The atmosphere and sound design are the best I have seen in any H-Game IMO.

Holy shit I can´t believe how really good this game it is. The game is really good and I love the theme it reminds me of old lovecraftian games but with the spice of the sex scenes. I am looking forward for more updates.

All I can say about Divimera is that this game is EXTREMELY GOOD and that everyone need to download and go for a playthrough to understand and enjoy the experience from it, people might thought that I'm exaggerate but trust me when I said this game so far is the best game ever develop by Redikai
_Art: A solid 10/10
Just look at the menu design alone you can see how detail and well draw it was and not even need to look at the character, the background, map design,.... you can see the artist skill, hard work and their dedication to give us this masterpiece.
_Story: 10/10
The story are very well written and lore rich: You are a young boy that just run away from the abuse uncle with his sister and the nanny but got separated by the storm. Stuck on a mysterious island with tons of mysterious event and horror while need to try to find his missing sister and solve the mystery behind all of the strange event, can our MC do it and get out alive? If you love Lovecraft works or cosmic horror in general then this game is for you, no matter if you come to play for the porn I guaranty you will get hooked by the story more than ever
_Soundtrack/effect: 10/10
1 of the strong point of Divimera is the original but phenomenal music and the use of sound effect to create the uneasy atmosphere, the mystery and the horror aspect of it to maximum. You can never truly let your guard down because the music and the sound will make all your spider sense tingling 24/7 and make you to focus on the computer screen to make sure nothing went wrong
_Gameplay: 10/10
Even though the game still very early but the gameplay so far was very enjoyable and interesting, it was a sandbox game but every single event from main to the side all tied into the story and would help players to be curious but at the same time know what's happening on this island especially in the town. Every single area inside the house, large area, small dialogues, choices,... all are matter and can determine the outcome of the story in the future: Will you be nice to Charlotte or Hale and got into their good side or will you become the thorn that they just want to get rid? Would you gave the weird items you got to the people that asked you to get it in exchange for some item or gave them directly to the women and got "reward" that are much more valuable and more long term effect? That truly depending on you. Not just that but even though it was simply a gimmick to let players know and get use with the idea right now the sanity mechanic are a very unique feature where every decision can raise or lower MC sanity, you can use food or any medicines to keep it high but it will only become life and death matter when the game getting more develop in the future
_Sex event: 10/10
So far the sex scenes still very few but each of them are well draw and extremely hot, even the none sexual event can turn people on just by the flirting dialogues and the pose the female character make. I don't want to spoil too much so if you want you need to check it yourself, it will worth your time
Conclusion: This game is a 10/10 with great story, well draw arts, good music, hot sex scenes,.... that everyone need to download and experience even just once, you will never regret it specially if you love horror game

great story with great visuals interesting characters with different and engaging personalities. plot is also very interesting and a welcome change from mc just wanting to fuck everyone that moves overall i really enjoyed the game and would 10/10 recommend you play it looking forward to new updates keep up the good work cheers.

Version: R4

there isn't much content right now. it only plays a short way into Day 3 but offers a lot otherwise if you don't beeline the story.

the writing is one of the best aspects of this game. it's mature, verse and very British

the story is engaging and takes the forefront of the game. it takes a lot of realism into play as well as having a dark atmosphere.

the choice system seems substantial and i've yet to know to what extent it influences the plot/scenes but that makes it more enjoyable and may require some replay

UI in-game is clean and helpful

background art is full and detailed

the character art is where i find most problems but it is still decent - polished work with beautiful female cg art but not a fan of the style; faces, on profile, look weird with the big round cranium and small chins.
older characters don't look old instead they look uncanny old... excluding Lady Hale who looks like a bit more care was put in her mature design
so far all the women share the same body type which can be a bore. i like the pokies... not sure if bras were invented during that era (not complaining though)

sound design is well accounted for. sfx compliments every scene and characters' state of being

the sex animations are good enough and a refreshing take on realistic sex as scenes regard the mc to cum only once. scenes are also of good duration.

overall the game has a lot of craft and care and is coming along to be a great visual novel with some simple but fun game elements and actual storytelling

This feels like a professional game. The UI is the best I have seen here. That alone makes it worth the download.

The artwork is good. The story seems to have a lot of potential. The diary keeps you moving in the right direction. Sex scenes early on that don't feel like they were just thrown in as filler. Too early to see where they are going with the game mechanics but it seems your decisions will have consequences down the road.

I look forward to more updates.

Review of V3
Holy moly this game is amazing, even if it has only 30-40 minutes of game, it feels like an AAA game, I would seriously buy it, if it had a physical copy.
But let’s get to the game, it sucks you, from the beginning with an amazing start, hypnotizing music and sound design and art direction.
It is a point and click adventure )that reminds me of the old classic ones) set in 1800 and it gets right the historical part.
The characters swing from realistic to creepy very soon, the line is thin, they are all incredibly written from the female to the male ones, they do not feel like cardboards.
The atmosphere is unsettling, it’s no horror game, but it is sure startling, all the characters have this bizzarre aura, you don’t know who is foe or a friend, even the most comical and sympathetic ones have a weird side.
The art style and the attention to detail is phenomenal, there not many sex scenes now, but even if it had none I would still play it.
And there are even choices!
And It’s not even a linear point and click adventure, you can clearly decide who to side with and which decisions make.
Overall even if it has not many content, it’s just incredible and it will surely get better, even if it’s already high the quality of this content, play it, i’ll iper recommend it

Version R3
Looks very promising, even if it's really short right now.

It's a visual novel with movement between places and light point&click. The art is good and the writing and story are excellent thus far. The UI is very good and so are the sound effects. This game is of higher quality than the vast majority of everything else on here.

The negatives are only little content (will solve itself in the future) and not a very good erotic game right now. there are 2 small scenes as of now and both were just glimpses essentially. So you shouldn't play this for a "fapgame" at all.

I am unsure how I feel about the transitions that move the story forward and make you miss out on scenes or interactions. It always resulted in me going out of that screen and going back to every location and every room to see if I missed anything. There is probably a better way to handle this, that mechanic feels a bit annoying. (Maybe a hint if the player missed something, and a greenlight if the player exhausted everything? - not sure).

Overall thus far very high quality though and promising, thus full rating. I might edit my review or rating once the game is more complete.

The environment in the game is very good. The art is superb. The story is interesting and mysterious. The contents are low at version 3 but it has great potential!

Pros
- If you like MILF
- Good arts
- Environment
- Theme

Cons
- For someone who doesn't like MILF. I feel the characters are not attractive.

Love the pace, love the idea, reminds me of an actually published good-quality adventure game, especially the UI. That SAID, it is currently lacking content, but the bones are certainly there with the story and format.

Currently, it's very short, but I'm a HUGE fan of the art direction and style right now. It features quite voluptuously designed breasts in particular. The RPG features aren't half bad either, and I'm interested to see how it progresses.
