Others - Ero Dungeons [Beta 1.4] [Madodev]

One of the most well thought out game play wise ero games ive played. The game reflects DD in many ways with a lewd spin of things. Classes based on some BDSM fetishes requires in depth knowledge of them, the thematic items that tie to each class and then the personalities of each girl give each play through a unique spin.
Some quality of life updates i would suggest are:
1 - An easier way to reset character skill points so you can customise aspects like class easier as doing dungeons missions takes a lot of time
2 - Some sort of auto sort that puts the girls idle in camp into the helping role (cow, wench etc) that most suits thier characteristics
3 - the ability to purposefully engage with enemy attacks. Want a partasite? grab it and stick it in. Want the maid outfit? request off the correct enemies. That giant orc cock looking good? maybe girls with a submissive or extra horney perk and choose to engage willfully?
4 - more lewd pictures to show happenings?
5 - idle girls in camp just having fun

game is 80% gameplay and management 20% lewd. id love if the lewd was increased.
Great game and great developer.

This is an INSANELY good spiritual successor (porn game) to Darkest Dungeon, very good job from Madodev. I just beat the 2nd boss (which is the current final content as of this review), and I look forward to seeing the final product.

Haven't played Darkest Dungeon in my life, but Ero Dungeons has to be one of my favorite games to go back to and drop a couple runs in. The art may not be the best, and it may lack variation in body types, but the rest is there, so many fetishes and dungeons and races. Another thing is that sex is pretty rare but I never feel like it's "missing". Cherry on top is the banger OST it has, made by "Horbror" I believe.

I make it breif the visuals are decent but the gameplay loop. I love darkest dungen for its baseline gameplay and this game got that down. The lewd spin and the setting are awsome. It leaves a lot of space for creativty. I want to see this game finished and even backed it now. i am LOCKED IN!

Never in my life have I needed something so much and never known until I recieved it.

Having tried and failed several times to get into Darkest Dungeon despite it's many lewd mods, it left a hole in me that needed filling. That game was just too hardcore and annoyingly difficult for my tastes, and no amount of awesome gameplay or kinky mods could fix that.
This gem, on the other hand, is perfect.
It hooked me in so hard I pulled a few all nighters. Even though it's still in development, it already has so much content, and I'm just so excited to see more. And it's moddable as well, which gives it even more value and replayability in my eyes.
Sure, it has a few issues, like the clunky UI, but that's nothing that can't be polished in further development. It's already good enough, and it'll just keep getting better.

If you liked Darkest Dungeon but wanted a version of it focused on lewd stuff, give this one a shot.

Also the soundtrack is a banger.

Game isn't a bad time, and it certainly has a lot of potential. The current issues amount to a lack of adult content that is substantial enough in nature to be worth interacting with, and very poor encounter balancing that leads to the gameplay being more frustrating than fun.

You barely have a chance to keep a consistent build on any character due to the constant cursed equipment, enemies equipping you with cursed equipment, and enemies like the parasites that equip to you as cursed equipment.

The current UI implementation is also a massive clusterfuck of stats and nonsense bars that make it feel like you need a PhD to understand how all of the currently shallow systems actually interact. It just isn't in a development state that rewards you for the time you'd invest in learning all of the systems.

Game has fantastic modding capabilities added by the developer, though. This aspect of the game needs to be taken advantage of asap, as the community could really make a difference in improving the kinds of content available in a more immediate manner than a solo dev is going to be capable of.

The best kind of Ero game: an actual video game. Its darkest dungeon with a twist, and the dev is putting effort into making that twist integral to the game and interesting. Having characters who can be visibly and statistically permanently affected by every level in a way that isnt just an instant-loss, but actually possibly beneficial, is a great way to balance corruption mechanics. Its executed in a way that has a lot of thought put into it and doesnt feel discouraging, or like youre making a big mistake by not avoiding it all costs. Its definitely worth watching, and if they put more H mechanics in to combat i think its gonna be really good.

The game has a really good looking roadmap and the devs patreon looks to be worth supporting. Feels nice to see a dev for a H game put serious effort into developing their game, instead of adding one CG image a month then collecting 12K USD like other devs do.

I spent way too much time playing it. Here's a few things you might like about it

• A bunch of contect with more still to come
• The content comes on very regular basis
• There is actual gameplay in a porn game (wowie)
• All the mechanics have a kinky side to them
• Soundtrack actually slaps
• The bugs are (mostly) gone

Overall a great game, would recommend

The rare case where an NSFW game is actually a GAME that is reasonably interesting to play, as opposed to the other 99.9% of cases where the 'gameplay' is just meaningless and funless padding between predefined sex scenes. With all its flaws, it deserves 6 out of 5 stars just for that - for being an actual game.

Music 10/10
Voice acting 10/10
Enemies 7/10 - would love to see more enemy types
Reason for playing 5/10 - a bit weird to say but if you play it for the fetishes its great, but its a big shallow ocean, meaning theres not much into all these fetishes. Hardly any sex (after my 2-3 hour gameplay), and no huge reason to continue playing. I unlocked all buildings and didnt see much reason to do new runs when there was a lackluster with sex or endgoal.

When the game gets more fleshed out this will be amazing, and with the easiness for modding I think this will become big

one of the greatest lewd dungeon crawlers ever. Nice NSFW content, but also good gameplay an interesting mechanics. Rare combination in lewd games. And the number of different fetishes is pretty large

This game is in a weird space... It is full of sexual things, very kinky fetishy things, including sex, while never quite feeling... sexual? Like.. This isn't a game you'll be playing one-handed. On the other hand, it is a really good game-game you may find yourself playing for the sake of just playing it.

I wish it was a bit easier to get mouse-tips over abilities (you can't lock features open so you can mouse over them and understand what they mean), and the game has a lot of potential complexity... and yea, I could go on and on about it as a game (I like it). But if you're looking for something to turn you on.. even though it has more sexual content then anything out here, this probably isn't the game for that. But still fun and worth playing for the fun of it.

Very promising game;
Has tremendous potential to become the best game of its kind.
Rightfully so it is alpha stage.
Imho still missing practically enough sex scenes and it is mainly focused in mechanics, then it would be a really 5 stars!

Super fun. Excited to see more content! The combat system is better than darkest dungeon in my opinion. Plus - A good variety of loot and classes already! Only a few enemy types for now, but decent variety within them.

Great game, played till 4 am woke up at 11 am. Feel like I got a brain parasite myself. 5/5

Looking forward to repeat experiences when more content is added. Would love to see a seedbed class with more parasite slots than one, so the character looked like the girl in the nursery.

Has the potential to be a great game, the combat is fun and the RPG elements are deep. However it is severely lacking in adult scenes currently. Worth trying and keeping an eye on, once more content is added I'm sure this game will be a 5/5.

Love the gameplay, even though sometimes it can be frustrating. Hot and sexy, just wish it was easier to access some of the content like reaching a high level lewd class like pet or horse. overall I loved it, can't wait for more

Competent DD hentai parody with a few minor issues.

Pros:
-Fun gameplay
-Inventive leveling system
-Competent art
-Once you get 4 items of the same type, you get infinite copies and there are buttons to unequip items from other characters
-Very good glossary that explains a lot of things

Neutral:
-No sex scenes. Primarily bondage based with horny afflictions
-No end goal other than 100%-ing the village, but that's still something that will take time.
-Lack of information about which dungeons equip which cursed items
-Waifu ancestor parody is funny but can get tiring after a while. I muted them and read the subtitles in original ancestor voice and it's hilarious.
-Win streak bonus disincentivizes leaving the mission early. Once you lose it however, suddenly leaving the mission has no penalty and you can do some cheese.
-Grinding is present, but not very severe. To level a single character from 1>2 takes usually 1-2 dungeons as long as you pay attention to their goals. Leveling 2>3 is a bit more severe and luck based on how good the rolled goals are and takes 3-10 dungeons focused on getting that character levelled up. I have yet to level a character 3>4.

Negative:
-Too many cursed items in general. 90% of the time i get a weapon drop, it's cursed and that's really annoying.
-Certain cursed items have very severe requirements to remove them.
-Enema requires you to spend 90+ turns just waiting for it to trigger.
-Getting level 3 in a class is really annoying because you have to straight up change their class to a new one at lvl 1 and grind it up and once you do, you can't get any more equipment for that class with that person, meaning that if you want a full set or more copies of equipment, you have to level a new character to level 3 in that class for every set of equipment.
-Game is a bit too easy despite other reviews saying the opposite.
-I run a speedhack during most fights, especially when i have to do shenanigans to remove cursed items or complete certain level goals.

God, this game is grindy.

Its a nice enough darkest dungeons clone adding sexy classes and outfit customisation to the mix. However, the mechanics make it mind numbingly repetitive:

You have to level up every class to rank 4 for a permanent bonus in that class. There is no xp system, but "goals" which are randomised from a pool of options, many of which require multiple dungeons to complete and you will need to complete up to 6 of these goals for the final rank alone.

So you're looking at some ~25 dungeons per character, for a roster of 20-40 characters

BUT, by taking damage you will regularly be force equipped with cursed items that 1) change your class 2) cant be unequipped until you have leveled up that class to 2nd highest rank.
True to the theme, a lot of these cursed classes are passive/submissive tank types so, you guessed it, they will be standing around in the frontline. Taking damage, getting stripped, getting equipped with yet more cursed items, changing their class again, restarting the cycle, usually just when they started to be useful.

This saddles you with mostly useless characters (80% cows for some reason) that you rotate in and out of dungeons together with some regular folks. There is some itemisation to make your other characters carry the cows & co...

BUT, about 75% of the time the items you find in dungeons or as rewards are ALSO cursed, forcing you to run several dungeons to de-curse them, after which you just throw em in the trash (they dont de-curse into anything useful, you're just allowed to unequip them) and run a bunch more dungeons just to find something you actually CAN use.

In the process of this you can of course expect half your team to be stripped and turned into cows that you have to grind into usefulness again.

You almost never feel like you're progressing, it just feels like you're fixing stuff to be *able* to progress until you realise that's the whole gameplay loop

It's plainly a chore, and the art is way too basic to make up for it

Great game with a nice idea to support the playstile, ruined by a poorly implement class system and a very annoying debuff system.

The combat is really good, the skills of the different classes do complement each other nicely, and the art style is nice.

What makes the game almost unplayable is the absurd debuff system, you can literally get fucked over in the first dungeon if one of the rats forcefully equips one of the prisoner items on you characters. It turns them into useless units that can't land a hit, all of this would be bearableif you could remove the items after the dungeon is over... but no, you are FORCED into a class you had no idea existed and has no value other than being a meatshield.
Not happy with that the developer forces you to level up the class until LEVEL 3!!!! in order for you to be able to remove the equipment, it takes HOURS of non-stop grinding to get your normal useful units into level 3, now imagine having to do it with a unit that only knows "tackle".

The debuff don't end there, I lit got a bleeding debuff that persisted on my character even after battles, ffs it persisted even after I exited the dungeon, hopefuly its a bug.

Some of the horny status are nice, since this is a hentai game, but fucking hell, sometimes your characters get sooo many debuff you have like 7 different icons below their hp bar.

That brings me to the issue of lust, there is no effective way of lowering it, the tavern takes way too long to do so and buying the potion that lowers it in the dungeon its expensive as hell.

TLDR - The game need some SERIOUS rebalancing before it becomes the promising gem everyone says it is or want it to be, because right now its one hell of a timesink, with not much in the way of hentai scenes or content, shit the only one I've seen so far its the one were the enemy dog units mount your girls and rape them mid fight, but even that doesn't really have any meaninful impact in the characters development or kinks, it just increases lust.

PD: Game has pregnancy tag but there isn't any at least as far as I've gone.
