RPGM - Completed - Dungeon with Girl [2024-09-13] [tadatada stupid]

As a rogue-lite dungeon explorer with a hot gyaru heroine, this has potential as a concept, but unfortunately makes some confusing gameplay decisions that holds it back.

For the positives: the core gameplay loop is actually rather addictive. The core gameplay loop consists of traveling from room-to-room in a dungeon, then rolling dice to decide whether you succeed or fail at events, engaging in turn-based combat, or coming across the occasional sex scene, all while trying to attain a certain level of money before the week ends to progress the story. Even after several hours, the gameplay doesn't get old due to the variety of choices and events available. It would take several hours just to find all the different scenes available in the dungeon.

The gyaru heroine is also very attractive. I mean, she's just a gyaru design with a sword and some light armor, but she still looks great. The sex scenes have a good amount of unlockable content and the game incentivizes you to have sex with her to improve her stats, so that also doesn't really get old over the course of several hours either.

Now for the negatives, which basically amounts to various bewildering design choices throughout. For one thing, the game doesn't properly signpost when the game actually ends (which is 15 days, by the way). If you reach the endpoint of the game, it just suddenly announces: "You've reached the end of the game!" and my reaction was just along the lines of "... I did?" Other bewildering decisions include an early boss you encounter in the first week which can be defeated by using specific items; if you don't use those items, then they are the hardest fight in the game. The RNG can feel frustrating rather than actually random-- over the course of a game, I've had several critical failures while also having zero critical successes. It's also so easy to level up the heroine that the difficulty curve by the mid-game becomes totally wonky with the mobs and bosses feeling too easy (other than random difficulty spikes like that early boss fight I mentioned).

Outside of the gameplay, I also have complaints regarding the sex aspect. This game features both vanilla sex and NTR and there is equally sizable content appealing to both, but why is the actual content of that sex so different? The NTR sections include all kinds of fetishes, like maid outfits, time lapse scenes, etc. while the vanilla portion is so boring by comparison. I personally don't mind NTR, but for a game which appears to appeal to fans of both, I was hoping for the actual content to not feel so lopsided. Pure-love sex can feature those above fetishes too.

A good game that I enjoyed enough to beat to completion, but unfortunately held back by some flaws here and there.

Exploring a dungeon with your (eventual) gal girlfriend.

Was expecting a NTR dungeon explorer, where you can, as you move along in the questing, see the gal girl being taken from behind by a goblin, sucking off the tavern keeper, and spreading her legs for other horny adventurers. That, is not the case.

If you play the game, and don't mess up in combat or pick the obviously "I'm a lame boy" choices, gal girl will fall in love with you and do all the things you want. Blowie behind a hidden wall? Quickie while she's stuck in a hole? Mating press back at the tavern? She's down for it all. it will take a bit of time to get there, she's not easy for the MC, but gal girls are just more fun, so expect her to be open to anal, toys, and milking her tits.

I honestly did not come across any NTR, even though I saw all the "bad guys" who probably would take advantage of gal girl, none made any moves on her. All the FUBs back in town don't care about her if you pay your bills, the monsters just want to attack and never try anything lewd in combat, and anytime gal girl does get attacked by a random tentacle trap or similar, all you need to do is free her.

And yes, I know everything is diced based, but I didn't ever find myself screwed over because I failed a throw or landed a critical failure. Yes I'd fail to open a treasure chest, yes I'd stumble trying to ambush a monster, but 8-10 hours later and gal girl thought I was the coolest dude with the biggest dick and that was enough for me.

I did make it to the very end of the dungeon, but there wasn't really an ending. Which was surprising. I was expecting a time skip where gal girl is now gal wife and is either pregnant or we have a daughter who looks like a smaller version of her but with dark hair matching the protagonist, but no such thing happens. The game kind of just continues. Very strange choice.

Overall the sex scenes are hot but not kinky enough for me, a pretty tame and vanilla game.

While it has a good story and interesting gameplay, the game is ridiculously grindy. The scenarios are good and cater to most, (ntr is luckily optional, if you know what you are doing) but at some point you will have seen all of them and then it's off to repeat these scenes for at least 50 each for the last 5cgs.
Basically 3 hours of fun and 10 hours of mind numbing clicking...
If they cut out the grinding by like 3/4, it'd be a good 5/5

good bit off funf, feels like a proper game. censorship and getting cucked are not things i enjoy but censorship feels discreet enought and the ntr/cuck scenes are mostly avoidable.
Does feel grindy at times but nothing excessive, it's an rpg, if you don't grinf you are doing it wrong
going a my rpg pace (slowly and overlevelling) with 5h gameplay i m at about 60% content unlocked. (props to the develloper for giving you the failure gallery even upon succes. shame I wasted about 30 min trying to obtain the fail states of the traps but that on me )

Excellent Game!
The actual gameplay loop is nothing to special nor polished, but it is still fun.

The main shining star is the art, story, and paths.

May you be in for the vanilla or a NTR fiend like me, there is plenty to enjoy.

2 hours in the game it is quite enjoyable. The scenes are 9/10. The heroine is hot. The ntr is avoidable and it got tons of content for your fetishes.

The cons would be for vanilla enjoyers is the ntr scene at 50,000 gold requirement. I suggest to conserve your coins and always pick options that doesnt consume AP.

Overall Review: 5 stars

Short review:
9.5/10, one of the best executed H-events I have ever seen in Eroge. Not only does it have 40+ scenes with high-quality art, which is A LOT on it's own, EACH scene is extremely well structured and has ADDITIONAL 2-3+ artworks in them. To repeat, 40+ scenes, each having usual 1 main art, with a bit of motion and amazing text effects, changing with thrusts, ejaculation, facial expression, etc. AND, 1-2 completely new artworks on top of that. Sounds okay right? But hear me out, one of those 40+ scenes is a f-ing MINI GAME, that is you spending a night with heroine doing bunch of stuff. From top to bottom, you choose, you unlock more options, etc.
My mind was blown. Just peak.

Longer review:
As I mentioned, H-events are extremely well done. They include BUNCH of fetishes, including one of my favourites, NTR. However, while done really well, it could have been a bit better. But just a tiny nitpick from NTR enthusiast. Huge plus is that it was sorta light, nothing overly traumatic, just a bit of blackmail and sleeping pills with heavier ending. Now, if I say that NTR is my main meal, and then I say that vanilla is EXTREMELY tasty in this game, what do you take out of it?

Yes. Vanilla was super hot and well done, that it even cleansed my corrupted palette. If you are into wholesome and HOT vanilla, you will love it. Especially since NTR is easily avoidable, so you can partake in W sexy times.

Gameplay is straightforward, but not that easy. Especially combat. You start your day from the inn, you manage your inventory and characters, save game, and then go to the guild, pick up some quests, go to the shop, stockpile on consumables, go learn some new spells if you have any you haven't, and then go dungeon crawling. What I appreciate about this system is that, my previous experience that included similar gameplay loop was "Jerez Arena" where you had to choose how you spend your energy(Oh yeah you have 6 energy/stamina to manage while inside dungeon) between doing requests(quests), that were split into prostitution and physical labor, physical training that would help you with corresponding requests and increase your combat stats, and sexy times that would help you with lewd requests or some lewd combat abilities. Here, all that is streamlined in a way I already explained. You just go in straight line and do all of that while inside of dungeon. Just amazing.

Combat lacks variety, with only a few spells and moves, but nothing too bad. Gearing is a bit bothersome, but again, nothing too bad. Fun and scary part is that enemy hit HARD. So you need to be careful. Success rate of events outside of combat are determined by your classic D&D dice-roll. So, RNG aspect is present, but failing is not too frustrating.

TL;DR: Overall flow of the game is satisfying and H scenes are super well done, with high-quality art, good direction and variety of fetishes.
One of the best Eroges I played, next to Holy Grail that is "Dohna Dohna" and personal gem that was "Holy Light Flash Princess Pony Celes".

9.5/10

Honestly I'd give a 3.5 but it doenst exist. Great art with a cute girl and good progression. Kinda hated the dungeon crawl, didnt understand how to get good weapons, floors had to be rushed etc. so 2.5/5 dungeon crawling, 4/5 art. Rest gameplay was fine so 3/5.

Ok HERE is A REVIEW AND GUIDE OF THIS GAME.

ALL NTR IN THE GAME IS AVOIDABLE AND AN NTR FREE RUN LEADS TO THE TRUE OR HAPPY END.
1. THE REVIEW

Overall, its a very decent game with a somewhat reptitive gameplay loop, if you are really trying to explore stuff however it can be very enjoyable

Porn wise, overall really damn good, has decent variety but nothing overly kinky.

Gameplay wise, the dungeon crawling has alot of strategies to it and you really gotta pay attention to your options.

9/10 Good game.


2.the GUIDE

1. ITEMS ARE OP( SLEEP NUKES AND PARALYZE NUKES)
USE THEM, THEY ARE CHEAP TO BUY, get some sleep and paralyze grenade for groups of enemies, then have monica use AOE spells to obliterate them, this strat works for early and late game, that or mow them down one by one as enemies take plenty of time to recover if not ATTACKED.

2. AP IS SUPER IMPORTANT,

AS LONG AS YOU HAVE AP, you can keep going, so my advice is to REST WHENEVER POSSIBLE UNLESS UR FULL, doesnt matter what other options there are.


3. TRAPS ARE UR FRIENDs.
These things might seem intimidating but they are genuinely one of the lowest risk choices, no AP cost and if you roll good, ur manliness and stats go up, ur affection goes up. Here are the perks

more manliness and affection means you get more out of sex with monica and subsequently BOOST HER POWAAAAAAAAA. You can also unlock sex actions quicker. Once she reaches 70+ affection, everytime you save her from a trap, you get sex + stat boost + MASSIVE CORRUPTION REDUCTION
GO INTO TRAPS OFTEN EARLY TO MID GAME, U SHALL NOT REGRET.


4. CORRUPTION MATTERS

CORRUPTION will affect your rolls, your chance of getting treasure and OTHER STUFF, dont ignore it and take chances to reduce corruption at mid to late game

5.SEX IS IMPORTANT

FINALLY, sex is good for stat boosts and overall progresion, DO IT.

NTR is not a major issue, can be easily avoided
The issue is the game is pretty short, other than that it's pretty fun on the RNG element of the dungeon, therefore 4/5 for me.

Repetitive & mundane, like watching an analog watch spinning with high speed. I prolly play this game incorrectly...

The idea of the game and its story isn't bad, but not memorable either. Doing the same thing within 25 levels of the same thing, repeat every 3 game-days? This game took "grinding" to a whole new level.

Also, the porn scenes ain't really exciting either. They're visually great, but have no "erotica" in any of them, iykwim...

I loved it! The love interest is very cute, the animation for sex scenes are really nice and the voice acting is great. The game is really grindy though, you definitely can not beat it on the first play through. You have to keep getting cucked until your new game plus makes you a beast. I recommend going on rpg editor and adding money to your save file for a more enjoyable experience.

In general, a really good game with awesome art and good concept.
You get closer to your companion, and you need to do lewd stuff in order to fight your corruption.
When you explore the dungeon, you are not navigating like a classic dungeon crawler but draw random cards with your options (like fights, events, rest, etc.)
The part that is really lacking is the exploration of the dungeon and the rpg elements. Combat feels very boring and generic, as well as buying skills and equipment is not satisfying at all. I'd have liked to have seen these aspects implemented more creatively, or even just more classically (like getting XP and leveling up a skill tree, to be as basic as possible).

tldr; you can have fun with the game (mostly on the lewd parts, art is great) but don't expect too much on the dungeon/story/rpg elements.

Pros:
- small but good rouge like elements
- good art
- random events (gotta love it)
- good pacing, doesn't feel grindy as much

Cons:
- gameplay could feel repetitive in long term
- wish there were more content
- animations feel sluggish (maybe I'm in the minorities)

The game has amazing art that still shines after multiple hours of gameplay. I have now got my first ending after 7.3 hours, and while you might be able to beat the game a lot quicker, there's nothing that made me want to rush through it.

If you like dungeon crawler and rogue-like games, then this game will be just up your alley. I also loved the fact that, after beating the game, you can get right back to it with a new game plus run!

As someone who likes the risk of Netorare but wants to be able to avoid it by playing well this game is nearly prefect! Art is fantastic Monica is gorgeous and has such a great personality! Game can be a little grindy without cheating but is still pretty fun. One of the few 5 star RPG with NTR games out there.

Dungeon with Girl is a very enjoyable ride. Honestly, I am quite surprised just how much fun I had.

Gameplay is basically a dungeon crawler with rouge-like elements,. You don't level up, but clearing events, upgrading equipment, and sex all boost parameters and stats for both you and our lovely main lady, Monica. Surprisingly, it was pretty satisfying watching your stats slowly crawl up, with Monika taking the lion's share of growth, turning her into an absolute monster in combat. Even if you fail and get a bad end, a single New Game Plus loop absolutely breaks the difficulty of the game. Despite that, it was very enjoyable to go into the dungeon since it's always cool to see and find new event encounters every time you enter it.

The sex scenes here all all mostly revolving Monica and the occasional NPC here and there. Monica absolutely steals the show if you love the gyaru aesthetic, which I happen to absolutely adore. She's affectionate, playful, and full of that gyaru fun vibes. The CG's and art involving her always well drawn, so she always looks good. Most scenes are focused mainly between the player character and Monica, as it is a core game mechanic to have sex with her every night to clear corruption.
The lewd trap events you can take it or leave it. If it's what you're into, more power to you. The NTR events only happen if you don't meet your quota or are very bad at managing AP. It's all optional and avoidable, which I appreciate.

Storywise, it's pretty bare bones. The game is primarily focused on your growing relationship with Monica, and there's a lot of nice events that happen as you gain affection and manliness. Unfortunately, you don't really learn much about Monica until well into the last half of the game. Passable set up, but a nice little relationship you get to see.

Overall, a very enjoyable experience. Aside from some graphical glitches and a game crash, very little I can complain about. High recommendation if you're a gyaru lover.

Excelent RPG dungeon style game. Very challenging in the first week in-game. had to restart the save or else lots of NTR and growth to do. I enjoy the grinding, and I can still come back to do more.

What I would like to see more, a continue of the story to an harem, or to "chapter two - kids have grown to be adventures" and even more floors, but is just a wish.

There is a small bug regarding the locks at the start.

Overall amazing great game.

Man, this game could've been so nice. You start off in town, with said girl from the title, and it's really cozy:

You got the Inn where you can manage your inventory and go to her room with her to do lewd stuff, then there's the Guild with quests, a shop, a training ground for obtaining skills and the dungeon that you visit.

But the entire game is laid out for grind. Already after 30 min of gameplay you'll start to run into repeated events. The UI is too bright for the dungeon theme and the music doesn't fit at all (I think it's standard RPGM music).

Then I started the first sex scene, which happened without any buildup and out of nothing, and the game comes up even here with a big system with 1000 things to take care of. Like two arousal bars that you need to manage, different actions, depending on how your dungeon run was and so on.

Dude, when I just spent 30 minutes in a dungeon doing stuff, managing, fighting, buying, walking around, I just wanna enjoy the sex scenes when I come back. Not being stressed all the time.

Also, the UI is blocking a good part of the sex scene right in the middle of the screen without any option to hide it. But it would've been easy to move it more to the corner that only shows some background of the room.

Censorship on top makes it even less enjoyable.

Well made game. Plenty of content to go through, good gameplay loop with dungeon and random events. Unlockable full gallery.

Fleshed out story, spicy scenes, NTR is avoidable. The heroine can stay with MC, leave the town, or go some other NTR path.
