HTML - Abandoned - Elixir of Life [v0.11] [Tukann]

It's pretty boring after about 5 minutes.
You masturbate and sell your seamen. That's the gist of it...
Just nothing to do really. Just figured a game that's a year old would have more.

The only places you can go are various rooms in your house or a nurse's office at the hospital.

There are many other Devs out there regularly providing updates to their games that you should check out and maybe even support.

A very quick and snappy game with a large variety of porn gifs and videos for repeating scenes, which is great (as long as you're not one of those people complaining about lack of continuity.)

The UI is miles better than other HTML projects and the NOTEPAD, which tells you what to do to progress, IS ACCURATE AND WORKS, EVERY TIME. this is revolutionary somehow.

The story isn't deep, but it's porn. And the videos are hot. Easy five stars

This is a decent game held back by one major flaw. The UI is excellent, pace is very quick and it doesn't try super hard to have a realistic progression. It's goal is clearly to facilitate a quick fap without trying to do anything with the wider narritive. Under normal circumstances this is fine so long as you have good characters.

The issue is not only is the characterization weak, the scenes are shown through porn clips of various women, with no consistency in the models. This makes the characters feel like cardboard cutouts. I would vastly prefer if one actress was assigned to each girl so they have a more consistent image, even if that means less scenes overall.

I also dislike the randomization, it took me weeks to find the scene where the sister interrupts sex with the mom, and you're telling me there are variations of that too? I'd prefer if scenes we're given only one variant so that I can know I've seen everything (and it'd be easier to make it the same model in each scene). As it stands you never know if you've truly completed the game because sure you may have seen all the scenes, but there is no indication of whether you've seen all the random variants.

I like the premise, gameplay loop, and stats. Just wish the characters and scenes we're better and it'd be 5 stars.

This is a great game !!
working fine, saves are quick
Nice way to navigate and nice story
Vids and image are well displayed
Waiting for the new releases !
Thanks for the developpment, can't wait the next versions !

Finally, some good fucking gameplay, mechanics and varying events. Can't wait for an update, although already it has enough content for multiple hours. The game doesn't take itself too seriously, which is kinda nice.

This is the best recent adult game there is. The pace between text, buttons and images is perfect. Love the clip selections, in particular those where the face doesn't appear. Also the grind is well balanced and you are never stuck in progression. The UI is clear and easy to use.

Just played version 0.8. Fun take on HTML real porn with stats. Nice UI. Does not feel like too much of a grind. Great hint system. Hoping to see more overarching plot with an antagonist/villain in future updates.

Technically quite well made, but just dull. There's no story or characterization to speak of, and the gameplay challenge is trivial, so mainly you just click around to trigger sex scenes.

These scenes consist of very, very basic dialogue and description. Since there are no meaningful storylines or personalities, they amount to "You see [character] doing [activity]. Try to perv on her? [Reaction-based minigame to proceed.] Ask to [do sex thing]? [RNG check to see if she agrees.] You [do sex thing]." Again, dull, dull, dull.

The scenes are illustrated with completely arbitrary snippets of porn clips. Even within a single scene there is absolutely no consistency of models for each character, not even in approximate appearance. It's as if the videos are illustrating the abstract idea of a blowjob (or whatever) rather than a particular scene with a particular character. Perhaps that could work if the text was compelling in itself, but see above.

Basically, this game is a very inconvenient way to browse a gallery of random porn gifs.

[ Review for version 0.7 ]

TL;DR: I recommend trying Elixir of Life since it is a fairly easy game to pick up, and so far there are no bottlenecks. If something doesn't work just try again or try something different. The porn gifs are nice, and all of them are sourced if you like what you saw and want to see the original - something more games should do.

The Good: Incest! Well, if you change titles around. The gifs are nice too and it isn't didfficult to unlock the nice stuff.

The Average: The game uses a weekly calendadr system which gives each day variety which is nice, but has the issue that if you need a specific event to progress you may have to wait around a lot.

The Bad: You can only do one thing per time slot which makes the game grindy.

Summary:

It's a "your cum is worth gold" kind of game, but funnily enough that theme isn't very well elaborated. You wake up in hospital after a car crash and for some reason you were tested for a very rare condition which makes your cum worth its weight in gold. For this reason you are placed under house arrest in exchange for selling your semen to the government. Cue gameplay where you slowly convince your housemates/family to help you cum into a bottle.

Wishlist:

> Add slots to each time period during the day. Different tasks take up different amount of timeslots. When all time slots are expended or if you do a task that takes up more time slots than remains time advances to the next period automatically.

> Add more interactions in the house hold - there are more sex encounters than non-sex encounters in this game. The ration of sex to non-sex is a little off.

> Add pregnancy, pls.

> Add threeways with housemates/family

Nice Game.
I liked story a lot. Corruption pass pretty interesting too.
Would love to see more characters.
Great realization of mini games in the scenes.
Great idea of clearing out hints for different characters.

Pretty good game, with a few improvements it can become a really great one for sure.
It can be a hit or miss for some people since there's almost no story to it and the images/vids don't use the same actresses which i can see some people not liking it but i really do, loved the variety, and the "source" button under every one of them is a pretty nice touch!

Also i really liked the few minigames that the game uses to get you more involved with its content, but i feel like it can be expanded upon a little bit more in the next updates. Same deal with characters and locations, even though the content is great right now, grinding gets annoying since you are switching between the same 4-5 locations, so adding maybe some outdoor areas or something like that would make it less grindy and would be a good opportunity to add more content to the game.

All in all, good game so far if you just want to relax.

a good game. good writing, ok concept, good execution.
i like it that the pics/videos don't stick to one actress per character, like other games tend to do, because this way the author can find the pic/video that works for the situation they are writing, instead of having to write about limited pics/videos of said actress.
it's cool that they add somewhat of a minigame here and there. makes it more involved, but i guess that gets outdated rather quickly (you don't need to masturbate much after the start, since you can actually do it with them)

It eventually gets a tad grindy, but this is a game that exhibits *focus*. It knows what it wants to do, and it does it. What does it want to do? Give you an incest-themed wank bank. Delivered. It's also amazing that the dev links to source material for every image/video - don't think I've ever seen that.

I think there is enough content for a play today. It is missing sound and the story really isn't anything outside of fucking, but imo that's acceptable. Not a gem (yet?), but it's good - 4 stars.

June 2023 Update

After replaying it, I'm deducting one star for the RNG mechanics. I guess I was either lucky the first time around or there just wasn't enough content for it to get on my nerves. Still a very good game with a very simple but hot premise.
-----------------------------------------------------
One of the best real porn games out there right now, everything from the models to the light grind is amazing. I especially love the escalation of the sex acts and am excited to see where a game of such quality goes.

I am giving this game 5 stars, not only because I think that the game itself is very nice (and oh boy it is!) but also for the simple "Source" Links provided at every Scene. Boy oh Boy this is so great and I really hope that more html devs pick this habbit up.

Great game, great UI and amazing Dev!

One of the best HTML real porn sandbox games on the site. Great writing, game mechanics, porn, and systems. The choice to favor frequently maintaining stats instead of grinding for them over and over is pure genius. I look forward to future updates.

It's one of those games where I have to ask "What's the point of the plot?". We're on an early version so maybe it'll go somewhere, but basically we discover in the intro that the hero has special cum and the government want it for medical research. The government don't want to kidnap the hero and say that so long as he provides a cup of jizz a week and stays indoors at all times then it's all good.

The only relevance of any of that is an excuse for why the player character can't leave the house (except for the hospital, where he can visit exactly one character for a handjob). It also provides the entire motivation of the Mom and sister characters for why they'll do stuff with the hero.

The Mom and sister don't really have much in the way of "character". The Mom say generic "Good boy" stuff, the sister says generic "You perv, tee hee" lines.

If you want any more depth than that, you'll have to wait and see if the game expands like that, but there's really nothing more there right now.

In terms of being a functioning porn game though, it's fine. Some nice clips, a very smooth interface, simple stats, a little grind but not too much, no real bugs encountered. In that sense, it's just fine. No real complaints, but nothing to make me think this is one to follow either. On that basis, smack down the middle on three stars. It's fine, but it doesn't stand out in any way.

This game has quite a few good things going about it. Best of which is the user interface. I usually play on the mobile and this game enhances playing experience for mobile users like no other game. No need to hide side windows (which have additional info) to get more space. No need to scroll and search for correct links or buttons. This one just works like a charm. The story has potential. Being a sandbox game, adding a few more characters will surely make this game far more enjoyable as it proceeds. Good luck!

Reviewing version 0.3

Pretty solid start.
Like the layout design of it too. No toggling side bars here. There's a stat tracking overlay hovering right at the top and it's clean enough to not get in the way visually.

Honestly the only reasons I'm giving it 4 stars right now are (1) The dumb as balls stat decay. Shouldn't exist at all. If the player fucks up, take some points sure, but stat degridation is just a plain stupid idea. And (2) a specific gripe I have with a certain stylistic choice:
Outside of the porn scenes everyone has been decapitated.
No fucking heads or faces anywhere except for the doctor once at the start.
Real mood killer imo. Nothing sexy about headless torsos.

Reason for edit: added 1 more star. Was 3/5 before.

Review is for v0.3
A pretty mediocre start for an HTML game.
The video's and pictures are all well thought out and fit with what is going on, and the story is decent for a sandbox game.
There's just one glaring issues so far with the game, the only purpose of the game is to get horny, then get "milked". In a very basic way, this works, but it really needs more characters involved. This being an early version of the game makes the lack of characters understandable, but due to the basicness of the story, and the whole game play loop being based around getting character events to pop, there just needs to be more characters to make the game feel fuller and less empty.
All in all, I'm very excited to see where this is going to go, but feels like it needs a little bit more content before I can give it better rating.
