Others - Completed - Ero Dungeons [v1.0] [Madodev]

The game is unique, and basically does not have ONE OF the best voice overs and music in the gaming industry, cause, this game has the best voice overs and music in the gaming industry. Hands down, with exception of GTA san andreas, no other game can ever come close to the sounds in this game. So give this game a shot, you will love it. The game is mainly just kinky, there ain't much H-scenes.

For a game meant to be erotic I spent hours TRYING to enjoy this game to no avail.
The only thing that got hard playing this game was maintaining the will to continue.
Basically no instruction, no point to keep anything as character will get cursed eventually and uncursing is a bigger chore than watching grapes ferment.
Every goal is too random, tedious and boring.
Only reason I gave it a star higher than 1 is I feel maybe it can be chalked down to it just not being my cup of tea, with how many giving this thing a 4-5 rating.

I had to clear away a mountain of salt and tears in order to reach the button to give this game five stars. It is an excellent quality game with a focus on gameplay. My frustration comes from how easily your best adventurers become "cursed" and how difficult it is to remove their cursed class in the early game. For a long time you're better off just scrapping them and hiring a new adventurer, which kills any incentive to invest in them until you are many hours into the game. I'm just going to chalk that up to skill issues and move on though

Plethora of content, both H and otherwise. It's as mechanically dense, if not more, than Darkest Dungeon (which it takes heavy inspiration from). This is like, straight up a real, full game. It has everything from a full soundtrack, voice work for most menus, 100s of items, dozens of enemies and over a dozen unique classes. It even has a new game plus system, despite the fact that a full playthrough can easily be dozens of hours of long

I think there's less sex in this than most H-games, aside from when one of your girls is molested or bound to a machine during one of the endless combats, but it's undeniably erotic and more to the point, the gameplay is actually surprisingly good (I mean it is basically a sexy re-skin of Darkest Dungeons), which I must admit kept me playing for a long time. There is quite a steep learning curve, but don't worry if you spring cursed items or a girl gets captured - learn to lean into it and just recruit some more.

Finally cleared the darn thing. 5/5 did nut would nut again, and again.
Play time: days.

A Darkest Dungeon parody but you get fucked literally instead of figuratively...maybe a little figuratively. Become a "benevolent" guild boss who really likes affirmative action and employs exclusively women. Adventurers: women. Logistical staff: women. Church priests: give it time. Just be sure they signed the liability waivers and understand the occupational hazards (they don't).

Easy to follow gameplay loop. Manage base, employees, upgrade facilities, organize a team, delve into dungeons, beat up the horny baddies, loot, repeat. If you lose some adventurers along the way, just replace them or rescue them after they've been corrupted a little. You could always use some more cattle for the farm after all.

It's a very long game. Expect something on par with a full length game taking upwards of days to complete. Not a quick meat beat session by any stretch of the imagination and I found myself playing the game at times just to play the fun game. The best etch games are the ones that don't sacrifice gameplay quality while making the H content part of it's core gameplay loop. EZ 5/5.

While Madodev's Ero Witches was an exercise in how not to do a corruption game, Ero Dungeon ticks all the right boxes.

You start with a pair of girls who visit your guild, hoping to find employment, with a request dropping into your inbox for one of said girls to end up getting trained as a Maid, with the commissioner paying you handsomely, heavily implying that the Guild's 'employment' options are nothing to do with adventuring.

Over the course of a typical playthrough, similar to Darkest Dungeon, it's inspiration, you'll find more and more of your adventurers taking on new classes, and not the kind that heroes take on, as your Guild's staff reveal their true callings.

Once you complete a session with a Guild, you unlock Destiny Points, which allow you to tweak your experience, making it easier or harder, and being able to move quicker into the real purpose of your guilds.

The amount of variation in the outfits, and ways in which your adventurers can be corrupted, is vast, and you'll not play the same dungeon twice, with there being plenty of ways in which the fates of the hapless girls that come for adventure can be twisted.

If you want to play it where your Guild has a very noticeable parasite infestation, with several of your adventurers pregnant with the next brood, you can do. If you want to have your adventurers be prepared for the slave markets, go ahead. There's nothing stopping you.

V1.0 Demo version review
Oh boi, i play this game expect to be full of monster and sex, but nah, it full of miserable and loss. Game is so grindy, you cant focus on main team you has, took times to gets everything including leveling up, leveling up is an eternal job, also special quest like lend an elite slave, good job leveling them up and the reward is just 10 favor while you need a bunch of them for upgrades and for chruch services. Bitches who talk to you with voice is supper annoying, im keeping my bitches alive here, trying to survive and finally killed 1 of 4 enemy and she just say "dont get cocky now", bitch youre annoying as fuck, you kept yapping all the time, go fuck yourself. all and all this game shouldve called torture dungeons rather than ero dungeons .

Pros :
+ Build up your slave guild with rpg style game.
+ Unique gameplay.

Cons :
- Annoying bitch kept talking for anything you do.
- Dungeon was super hard, despite going to easy dungeon you got to fight an enemy who has complete set of move and got full team, its clearly not easy as my team is dying despite has 1 elite clerk to help heal the team.
- Every day your team gets hit by negative boon and you can pick other slave or skip a day to let them cool of or use other team.
- You cant focus on 1 main team.
- Hard to manage your slaves, it was nightmare
- all quest is on hard difficulty.
- Super grindy.
- You cant get away from adventure without negative boon ever also hard to get rid of.
- Little to no sex.
- Lack of pregnancy feature, pregnancy is for money or bother your fight or your baby will instead assist enemy.
- battle is a nightmare as its not balanced, ex; 2 little health of slime merge into big full health slime instead of little health of big slime.
- your first play will always end up get fucked even 2nd you will since many is unknown and there's little to no tutorial.

Tl;Dr
Game itself is good if youre into slave management rpg adventure game, dont mind super grindy and how hard the game is and require to new game often.

and dont mind the annoying bitch who kept talking.

Better than, not only most RPG games, the previous title. Knowing this is a demo I will buy the game to support the developer y'all should too. F95 being what it is, probably won't happen much, but this game is more than 10x more fun and well thought out than Rempy shit games on this site.

Full disclosure: I was a patron for this game for awhile, so I've followed it through a lot of it's development.

Did you like the idea of MadoDevs previous game, but you weren't really comfortable seeing Madoka characters get sexually tortured? Are you more about bondage and sexy outfits than you are about sex? Did you play Darkest Dungeons (and even Lewdest Dungeons) and think "This could use more sexualized anime girls? If so, you've found your game.

Ero Dungeons is a game in the vein of Darkest Dungeons (Ed: I have not played Darkest Dungeons) where you are a guildmaster, hiring and directing girls to explore dungeons, largely because making girls explore dungeons is kinda fun. These dungeons can vary in theming and fetishes, and generally also involve getting equipped with cursed item sets and parasites. (If you played Ero Witches and haven't figured out MadoDev loves cursed items and parasites, uh, they do. A lot. And they write it well!) On the flip side, you also receive levels and gear for winning fights, clearing dungeons, and completing challenges, allowing you to arm your girls to take on bigger challenges. All the while, you're collecting resources to expand your base of operations and unlock upgrades for the entire team.

The gameplay is more or less simple turn-based combat, with turn order decided by agility and able to be manipulated through certain abilities. The overworld map also contains Curios, events that can have wonderful or terrible effects for your team of girls. At the onset, it seems pretty clear you want to avoid cursed items and collect rare items, but the further you go into gameplay, the more you realize that cursed items and classes can have tremendous benefit if utilized well, both in combat and working jobs around the base.

This is one of Ero Dungeons hallmarks; it's a fullfledged game, mechanically, and very quickly turns up the difficulty once you're familiar with the gameplay loop. Your girls can be kidnapped if they take enough damage in battle, and it's very much expected for this to happen. Kidnapped girls can be rescued, but the mission starts out extremely hard; as time goes on, it gets easier, but the more cursed items will be placed on your girl, forcing her into a corrupted class. This can lead to frustration from bad runs, as a girl who you poured a lot of time and effort into can be swept away, and by the time she's rescued she's been forced into a very difficult to change cursed class. The game does give you an option to make this easier, but it comes fairly late in your base development and relies on more difficult to obtain currency than most other systems. As you go into higher and higher dungeons, the game forces you to be more clever with your use of abilties in both combat and the field, with the boss battles being just as much a puzzle as they are a fight.

The ero content here is largely nonsexual. Many enemies have both physical and sexual attacks; while arousal doesn't damage your character it can very easily handicap them enough for the physical attacks to bring them down. On top of that, it feeds into crests that debuff the girls against certain enemies and mechanics. The physical attakcs, in addition to damaging your girls, can also damage their clothing, and enemies will gleefully leap on any unfilled equipment slots with their own cursed equipment. While there is some penetrative sex, these debuffs and cursed gear are the driving force of the ero side of the game.

Between the difficulty of the game and the specific focus of fetishes here, Ero Dungeons is certainly not for everyone. If you're looking to see girls get pinned down and raped in various ways, you're better off finding another game to play. The sprites, even, don't lend themselves well to sexual fantasizing. All of this means that Ero Dungeons leans on the writing and implications of gameplay more than it does open sexual content, and for what it's worth, both of these are masterfully executed. It appeals to a very certain niche, and the design certainly isn't perfect, but if you're like me and like binding and bad status games, this is a pretty fun game to spend time with. If you like it enough to really spend some time with it, there's even a robust modding community!

Finally, in a purely selfish move, I have to knock ~half a star off for the soundtrack. I do not like the music here, it doesn't really feel like it matches the game, and it's one of those soundtracks that just kind of grates after awhile of listening to it. I'll take another half star off just for how sadistic it can be at times (and because I can't do partial stars), but consider my review a very low four star.

This is one of those games that you get off to because of the situations that your girls find themselves in rather than from visual stimulation. It has the advantage of having decent gameplay to engage with, which already puts it way ahead of the competition, and there is a pretty hefty amount of content.

However, there are some issues as well. The two biggest issues in my opinion are balance and tedium.

Let's start with balance: in short, the game gives you many very OP tools, and those tools trivialize the game, reduce it to just pressing the same move over and over again, as well as make any other build pointless. A short list: mantra of aggression/crest of lust, shotgun, automatic rifle, staff of fireball, corset & posture training, goddess's gloves, cow milking machine, straightjacket + SJ hood, etc.

This needs to change. First off, the right approach shouldn't be to just spam the same move over and over again. There needs to be some strategy involved. Items that force your character to repeat the same move over and over shouldn't be a thing (unless they're intended as a punishment). Secondly, if the game is going to give us tools that are this OP, the end game difficulty needs to be way higher to compensate. Lastly, there are many items in the game that are straight-up worthless and it reduces the build diversity, they need to be buffed to be at least worth considering.

Ideally, when I attempt an elite+ dungeon of a particular biome, I should have to think about how to make a party that can beat it, rather than just fielding the same 4 characters that also destroy every other biome.

Now onto tedium. The level up requirements are way too annoying. The most efficient approach for me has been to ignore the mechanic altogether and opt instead for recruiting higher level adventurers via the stagecoach, until I had progressed in the game to where I could switch the goals at will until it landed on a convenient one. I think it's just a matter of the requirements being too high.

Needing to get 4 of the same item to make it infinite is also too much, and leads to the same items being instead passed around, which is tedious.

Lastly, simply progressing on the map from one boss to another can be quite tedious when the dungeons in the way don't pose any challenge or don't have anything interesting. If there was an item that could, let's say, show you the entire map of any non-boss dungeon (with a significant downside ofc), that would make the process less tedious.

Other things I would like to see are potentially different voices for the adventurers, it's a bit jarring when they all share the same one, and also the lack of voice acting & sound effects when a girl is "grappled" I think takes away from it. But those kinds of things are probably further down the line, since they require voice actresses and they aren't free.

It may seem really hard at the beginning, to the point where I personally was about to give up completely, but after giving it some time (and reading the holy fucking Beginner's Guide, conveniently available on the linked Itch page) I found out that the mechanics aren't that insane to understand, and the game actually explains everything you could possibily want to know.

Now, the game itself is really fun. Unforgiving at times, so I don't advice getting affectionate to your adventurers, as defeat is just one fight away.
At the beginning, you will die, a lot. But that's the point! Trial and error will give you knowledge that you didn't know before, and make you able to withstand dangerous situations with ease.
There aren't permanent game overs, and defeated adventurers won't actually die, and can be rescued back (though may come back with some "side effects").
The game just doesn't ever get boring, since there are all kinds of encounters and possibilities, and updates are very frequent (with many thanks to the (Mado)Dev, who is actually a beast and super available when it comes to suggestions and bug reports).

tl,dr: this game is hard, play it.

A really good beta with lots of potential, the fight is challenging enough, and there are so many debuff, stats, and many things to do
my complaint probably not randomize the mission and make it not too grindy or at least makes the grind easier and whatnot

The random leveling missions made this a grind fest. Suggestion to add 3 choices for leveling missions for each level was ignored. The leveling missions are also made to make things difficult rather than to be logical. Like having mage use physical attacks or having alchemist on the front row. That's not how you train in real life, ok? Also, there is no reason for this to be called Ero dungeon. There is nothing erotic about it. It's more of a bondage dungeon. And I don't know why heat damages you. It isn't fire. If it were ero dungeon, there would be a ero/sensitivity/arousal meter. There isn't any of that.

I played v 1.21

This game is quite impressive. It seems to have some solid design, good art, and even custom music. However, I think it's just not for me. A strong story hook at the beginning would do a lot to keep my interest. Also, while it has a much better tutorial than other games of this type, I still think it could use some polish. A less cluttered UI, and slower introduction to the mechanics would help a lot. It's an ambitious project, and I'll check back later to see if it might have become a bit more approachable for me.

Lewd has come to our family...
So you have seen all other review and see 5 star o 1 star, is it good or bad?
Well it's complex:
The game is hard and made for masochistic slut like myself. Maybe in your first run you will find it frustrating, but then you realize there are some trick to prevent your favorite character to be cursed with all cursed item possible.
But yeah, there is a lot of grinding at the start of the game and you will find a big tall wall when you are asked to have some favor. Leveling up your girls sometime is complicated but let you change your tactic, like when your mage want to deal physical damage. Quest are linked to the personality of your character, and can be rerolled by spending mana.
In the porn department is... complicated. I can say this is a erotic theme game more than a porn game. If you get aroused by the idea of bondage, mind control, stutification and other kinks you can find it good, but there is few sex animation and they are basic.

The music is gorgeous, it will be stuck in your brain, like the lab theme
Overall It's a good game over being a erotic game, hard as it should be.

This game isn't really as fun as i thought ? i expected some interesting gameplay and some challenge but this game? Man it feels like a chore.

Yes you can say the game is hard, and yes maybe i have a skill issue. But i really dislike the ways you "progress" in this game. You don't get to level up a character normally by killing enemies. nahhhh that would be actually FUN and NORMAL!! Instead you have to do one of the 3 GOALS... which are RANDOM and feels like shit to do! This consist of: clearing a dungeon! and then fucking Kill 2 specific enemies! or put this character into a job! and even more fuckery which i can't list cause of the sheer amount of bs!

You know the problem with that? FORCED. Like what da fuuuuuuuuck bro some "Goals" in this game makes me wanna cry sometimes, like lemme give you a example alr? i get a cursed ring. from opening a chest. which it forcefully puts on my character that i was developing. Sounds bad right? Guess what? the cursed ring doesn't just give u a minor debuff. no no no it changes your character to a different class! and the worst part? Sometimes the goal to uncurse is just cancer.

And by cancer i mean giving the curse goal "do 200 magic damage" on a ring. that changed my character into a class which can do 2 magic damage each turn. a class which is MAINLY for fire DOT damage. you see the problem here? i just basically got LOCKED out of a CHARACTER which i was GROWING. And sure you can say its my fault for OPENING A FUCKING CHEST BUT COME ON MAN!

Also This game is one of those i want my characters to not feel like a NPC but i don't have the skill to do it? Cause lemme tell you how some of these dumb fucks act alr? my characters will legit MURDER a group of 4. SEE a chest and go "oh wow that probably belong to someone! we shouldn't open it!" LIKE WHAT?!!! My guy YOU killed the group that owned it?! And you don't wanna open a CHEST?! WHAT IS THIS NPC RESPONSE?!

Lastly is just wanna say... take my review with like a grain of salt alr? i also like pain, but i like pain that i need to overcome to gain a reward alright? Not unnecessary pain like this game? which just feels random. painful to play. and it seems to not fucking value my time.

Very good gameplay that's been getting expanded upon with each update.
Plenty of gear, classes, traits, effects to be had. Gameplay is solid and still improving. Like Darkest Dungeon but with lewd themes. Great soundtrack.

Only caveat would be as an H-Game, it fails utterly. There are lewd themes but there's no consequences because of it, they can just be treated as generic buffs/debuffs.

It is however still stellar gameplay though specially with the past few updates that have pretty heavily expanded on the exploration and gameplay.

Game is what it advertises difficult yea could be harder though so it's accessible to all players and has a modding community so if you don't find what your looking for you can always look for it. H-content lacking but staff and how much gameplay is in the game imo more than make up for it. Love the game and the community it's fostering.

A truly deep game. While the early game can be very harsh as you learn many systems and how to play, you will still build from stumbling, gaining gear, upgrades and a understanding of the game. Finding what works in early game like dots which deal raw damage ignoring low stats, but pivoting to more complex builds as you gather gear and train stats. Progressing through a map unlocking harder zones and bosses. All with there own tricks. And that is the best part, curses, bosses, everything they all have their own niches, that when combined with gear can make terrifying builds, blind yet accurate turrets that auto fire. A living statue of a cow acting as a tank and healing the whole party. The endless builds with the shear amount of gear is staggering. The choices of embracing curses and making trade offs. There is just so much game to be had.
As you get to mid to late game more mechanics start showing there presence, sensitivities built up from actions taken start building lust unleashing afflictions. Crests start showing their powers.
Late game you start seeing the power of your stats, shifting the moves you use, and buffs start really showing their devastating power. And then there is the unique characters, their quirks give will change many ways of playing, finding them and figuring out how to play to their rules will shift your builds even more.
Then there is dressing the adventurers up, customizing them to your liking, the grapples leading to sex, and many other manners of lewd. NG+ options gained by completing missions. And not to be forgotten, mods, ranging from simple gear addons, to massive overhauls. A game you can really sink hundreds of hours into.
