After 5 years in this website I think I can officially give my first rating, and a 5 it is going to be, never encountered a game with such perfectly balanced grind, such a large amount of things to do, scenes, and storyline.
It's pretty good, but's there's enough I wasn't a fan of to warrant a list:
Pros:
The art and scenes are, in general, REALLY good. I'm not familiar with the creator's previous work, but I made sure to take a look after I was finished with this, because the art here is obscenely nice.
The game is designed in an honestly pretty smart way. Iroha, the protagonist, becomes a half-succubus and gains power by doing lewd things. Specifically things outside of her normal comfort zone. This is reflected in game by her SP, which is used to buy skills and is obtained by seeing the H-scenes. Her succubus contractor also gets mad at you if you don't have enough SP.
You start out with a very limited selection of H-scenes, and thus a limited number of skills. This may lead to some grinding in the dungeon unfortunately, but once you've passed a certain level threshold you should be fine. But there's another problem: The first boss is actually pretty hard.
But in typical eroge fashion, losing a boss fight gives you extra H-scenes. Specifically, whenever you lose to a boss, they use their powers (or whatever they have at their disposal) to put you under their command and do slutty things for their enjoyment. This gets you more SP, thus making your rematch with the boss easier.
I also really liked the hypnosis stuff in chapter 4, as a big MC fan.
There's other merits to the game, but I can't recall any specifics. Harder to remember something that's good, right?
Cons:
There is a tracker for Iroha's virginity, which is of course taken when she has sex for the first time. I'm pretty sure every scene with vaginal sex has dialogue for her hymen breaking. And there's even a choice at the end of chapter 4 where she is (more or less) voluntarily slutting it up with a guy and you are given the option to have sex or not... but you can only deny him if you are still a virgin.
That scene in particular led me to believe there had to be some reward for completing the game with your virginity intact. There is not. You get two endings (plus a boring bad ending for losing to the final boss):
On that note, the stats in this game are pretty useless. Sex stats, I mean. The combat stats are relevant. But they only effect the skills you can learn (which isn't that big of a deal) and what clothes you can wear outside of school. Which is also not a big deal, but what's worse is that the requirements for wearing outfits other than your school uniform are so high you'll probably only get them in NG+, which yes, this game does have one.
There's also plenty scenes, mandatory and not, that I wasn't a fan of. But that's personal preference and I probably shouldn't even include this in the review.
Lastly, I'll warn you, don't invest in dark damage. The game seems to throw boosts for dark-type damage at you, but you shouldn't bother with it because the final boss is immune to dark damage. They're pretty damn hard, too, so unless you want to grind, I'd suggest putting your effort into your other damage types.
Overall
The game is pretty good, despite my qualms, and I would recommend it. I'll probably go back sometime and see the scenes I missed if I have time and am horny enough.
To me, this is a pretty good game with quite a long playtime. I’m really satisfied with its graphics, and the sound design is more than decent in my opinion. Overall, it’s definitely a game worth playing at least once.
The game has its merits, with a story that is somewhat interesting and engaging to a point. However, it is severely let down by a number of design flaws.
The biggest issue, in my opinion, lies in the character costume design, which seems poorly planned and executed. This lack of polish is a clear symptom of disorganization during development. This feeling is worsened by the complete lack of player agency; I constantly felt forced to accept the game's decisions, with no choice over the characters' appearance or the narrative path.
To make matters worse, the battle system and the "succubus world" are completely unnecessary and poorly implemented elements. They add nothing to the experience, feeling out of place and seeming to only artificially pad the game's length in a boring way.
Verdict: A mediocre experience that could have been good, but is ruined by poor organization and forced, pointless mechanics.
This game is really really great and cover a lot of interesting content for this kind of game.
The story is divided into different chapters which allows for true progression in the characters' development. The story by it slef is enjoyable and the characters are endearing.
The gameplay is also really nice. You have a big skill tree to unlock with various strategies. Battles are not to redundant and you can both be attacked or performed H attacks.
Concerning the H Content, there is a lot of scenes to unluck with various set up, and the art is really good.
In conclusion, this is a great game, both interesting for its gameplay and the really good inclusion of H content in it.
of the still image corruption RPG maker games, this is among the best, if not the best. Very polished, tons of scenes, great corruption without any crazy sequence breaks. Not too grindy, and has items to make the grind less annoying. Missed scenes can be purchased. Overall and excellent game.
Honestly, this is a really good runner up compared to Celesphonia. There's quite a lot of content I liked, particularly the pool and bookstore scenarios. The gradual corruption is good, I liked pacing Iroha's corruption and only doing what I felt like she should do at the time, and it paid off nicely. The story and gameplay is alright, a little contrived at times but this is a quality game through and through. Art is really nice, Iroha is hot and thicc af. Those apron-only scenes have me in an iron grip.
This is my first time playing something from Milky Way and, oh boy! game is a treat if you are into exhibitionist girls and enjoy the RPGs with a day-cycle gameplay loop mixing daily life and combat stages. The quality of renders is great and there is some animation during combat scenes, which is appreciated.
My main criticism is how little agency we have over Irohas in the day part of the cycle aside from managing the school's morals, which is kinda a pointless system for how little content there is tied to it. It seems like a wasted opportunity for more school events (outside of the hypnosis arc) because of how much her role as morals officer is emphasized throughout the story. Also, the stat system could have been used to change her outfit progressively, but by the time you have enough stats to change outfits, you are pretty much done with the game.
A really enjoyable experience regardless if you don't mind the classic jrpg grindfest part of it.
I'm definitely checking Milky Way past and future works.
suffers HEAVILY from the typical 'you have to lose to get certain scenes'
disease, and it doesn't seem to have a way to unlock scenes that you've missed, and you have to lose 5 times to unlock the option to surrender immeadditely,like come ON
i loved the game the art is great minus the reused animations
its mostly focused on exhibitionism but there are plenty of actual sex scenes too
the rpg side is good too plenty of skills and each floor has its unique challenges and enemies the contractor bosses are great too some actually requiring thinking to beat the mini games are fun to minus the sashimi mini game i especially like the amongus type mini game
story i liked too and lets so say i dint expect the plot twist at floor/chapter 4
things i dint like some achievements are rather grindy like getting the school to drop to 0 requiring a single scene to be played over and over and over
and the collecting used tissue achievement getting everything unlocked also is on the grindy site luckily there is a book in the book store that somewhat alleviates this by not deducting semen and xp from repeated scenes if you buy that book
Absolutely absurd amounts of content. While this game has little filler per se, it does tend to overstay its welcome eventually. The main keywords are exposure fetish and slow-burn corruption, with some chapters focusing additionally on other fetishes like blackmail and hypnosis. It does all of these very well and all this narrative content is supported a frankly ridiculous amount of high quality 2D assets between the CGs, monster attacking poses, and dozens of outfits.
The battle system is serviceable and makes the smart decision of only forcing you to play through the battles with ero animations, allowing you to completely skip battles without sex appeal. This allows you to grind if you wish without it actually being grindy. Another good idea is tying the skill system directly to sex events, so that these game verbs compliment each other into one whole rather than feeling like you're playing separately a good visual novel and a mediocre JRPG.
If you can go for a slower paced game like this, there's no reason not to try it. It has my every recommendation.
I can't get how people can give this below 5 star.
- It have a valid story, not amazing story but better than your average H-game. Beside if you play H-game and look for amazing story, well we have visual novel
- I hate meaningless monster farming, good thing in this game it not meaningless. Also a great way to explain why a pure girl can get used to dirty thing that quickly
Conclusion: I love the art, love the design for gameplay, such a fresh breath of quality game compare to amount of junk game you see laying around
Quite a lot of content, overall pretty entertaining
That said, the story is the typical braindead writing you see in most h-games, but well whatever...if it's hot it's hot so i don't really care
One thing that was a bit confusing was that you need to increase AP/Stamina eventually but I couldn't figure out that I needed to buy a book from the bookstore that increases stamina and nothing else does.
Upd. Rough on edges, a bit too grindy, highly recommend to use mtool, the fights are not worth the time. Puzzles can be annoying but are not too difficult. Decent amount of scenes of moderate quality.
Will update review as I complete the game. But so far this looks like a top quality rpgm with gradual corruption.
Everything is made well, and the story is not some junk filler. It is possible to read text in this game.
I don't know why the reviews gave this game a five star, since I think their criticism is valid, and also brings it down a star.
It's a good game, I suggest people play it, but I find the erotic levelling system a little bit frustrating because it takes a while to build up your stats to allow you into certain events.
Also, the repeatable scenes aren't that worth it. It still uses the navigation BGM, rather than changing to something more erotic, and it's only the single line of dialogue with an image, which I think hurts their replayability. Yeah sure, have shorter scenes once you've done the initial one, but I felt like I was redoing these scenes just to build up erotic stats to unlock new scenes. I can let my imagination do most of the work, but they were a bit stale in this game.
I liked the slow build-up otherwise, and how it used a lot of exhibitionism and toys. Also the battling system is good fun.
A good, moderately slow corruption game, focusing mostly on exhibitionsim, toys, teasing and "vanilla"-ish sex.
Personally the game misses my preferences a bit, I wish there were more gangbangs / spitroasts / dps, especially considering that there are quite a few sex scenes with multiple guys. But they just run a train on our heroine instead of cooperating, which to me is kinda a missed opportunity. Most of the sex is just vaginal, which I find not very interesting. Kind of feels like the game tries to highlight the context more, as opposed to the sex itself, which, to be fair, is an interesting novel approach.
Also there are a couple cgs which have somewhat weird anatomy / posture and the standing cgs for mini-scenes are not as good as the full ones.
Nevertheless, it's a 5 star from me. The vast majority of the art is great, the progression is enjoyable, the story is cute and the overall production quality is up there. I especially liked the main heroines character, absolutely adorable little dork, 10/10, would make her happy again.
Gameplay is a standard rpgmaker stuff, but not really grindy and battlefuck is a plus. Also neat puzzles. The sex-scenes are where the game truly shines - the build-up, the dialogue and the artwork work really well to sell the tension and the excitement. Even with my earlier nitpicking it's simply good stuff and I wish there were more of it.
Overall a strong recommendation to anyone who enjoys exhibitionsim / toys / teasing in combination with gradual corruption.
It's surprising how this game had such amazing potential but somehow lands flat.
The premise is good, the variety of scenes is astounding, and the exhibitionism and corruption content is plenty. The issue lies with how its delivered.
With so much corruption happening when Iroha is 'hypnotized' or acting in accordance to bent rules, it doesn't feel 'corrupting'.
The payoff simply isn't there for you to feel the enjoyment as Iroha falls deeper, and most of the previously seen scenes cannot be revisted with more ero versions.
Incredible game from start to finish! Has everything a good corruption based game should have AND the gameplay is actually fun. With battle fuck events, even the grind of the 5 Dungeons becomes something you look forward to as each floor has unique enemies with unique sexual attacks. The story is also surprisingly good and moving, which is always a plus.
If you're into lewd corruption games with battle mechanics then play this, it's one of the best games of that genre that I've ever played!
