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

There really needs to be more Madoka H-Games out there. It's weird there's not. Well, if you, like me, like seeing Madoka tormented in various ways, this is the game for you.

Plot:
I just can't get into H-Games without a plot, it's a quirk, and this one has a plot that proves there is elegance in simplicity. Witches have finally figured out that they can lewd your favorite magical girls, and for some reason, they're localized entirely within Homura's basement. (There is a reason, but it is amusing how that worked out.) Homura calls on her friends to personally deal with the lewd witches, staying behind as mission control. Unfortunately, that means that we don't get to see Homura lewded, which is sad, and actually, isn't it weird that-

Anyway, each of the levels has their own little introduction, and there's a few skits between girls as things progress, and a little scene after clearing each level related to said fetish. Pretty great.

Gameplay: It's a pretty basic "Hit and debuff enemies before they defeat you" with a twist: fetishes tend to weaken magical girls until they're used to them, and even then, the later levels hit you hard with some difficult situations. Fortunately, maxing out your fetish levels gives you a minor stat boost, and they eventually do add up. Helpfully, wiping the party just puts you back in the beginning with all your progress intact. Just, ah, don't forget to save. By and large, you should be able to play this onehanded, which I'm told is helpful for people with dicks.

Art: ...it's unoffensive, really. It's not going to knock your socks off, but it's well done and there's plenty of changes to the art from various fetishes, which do all seem to be clothes based, by and large. Helpful, that.

H-Content: Let's be real, this is what you're here for. If you're here to see your favorite magical girl get railed, um. I'm sorry. Find another Madoka H-Game. As before stated, this game is largely based around fetishes, starting with clothes destruction and nudity and building up to...hypnosis, something that maybe could have been before weight gain, but what do I know? If there's a fetish you really, completely, cannot stand, you can skip it; you'll get the levels for the skipped content, but none of the items or boosts for embracing your kinky side. I skipped two and was able to clear the rest of the game as it is without any issues.

The fetish content is...kind of there, on a corruption standpoint for me? But there's one level I really like and would have loved to see more developed, so I may be a bit biased, and I do know that this game is still in progress, so I'm hoping to see a pass made over the older levels and strengthen some of the content. Remember, it's better to be good than fast, something that applies to IRL sex as well as H-games. Regardless, this is a big favorite, and one I'll probably keep watching until it's complete, and then keep coming back to.

Summary: Ero-Witches is a pretty good H-Game featuring an underappreciated cast getting involved in a wide array of fetishes. Except for Homura. Which is suspicious. The gameplay is pretty well done for an H-Game and wouldn't be out of place in an normal game, and the difficulty tends to lie more in balancing how quickly you dive into fetishes than the combat difficulty. There's no penetration in this game, which I'm personally fine with, but you may be somewhat miffed. But, if like me, you're more into fetishes than sex, and don't mind the cast members, you'll have a good time.

V0.10

Overall, a very interesting game, with lot of battle mechanics, but a bit lacking in art content.

Plot:
There are new kind of witches, "ero witches", they lure magic girls into dungeons, tempt them and feed on their sexual thoughts. PC team goes into those dungeons to try to resist those temptations and clear the dungeons.

Overall the plot is simplistic and short, and I kind of like that. More closely, the game right now features 10 different dungeons, each corresponds with different fetishes and each has its own battle mechanics. Mainly it's about reaching the boss and defeating it. While on path, girls will occasionally comment on situation.

Battle mechanics:
Each dungeon will corrupt and transform girls in different way, in some dungeon girls will adapt to corruption, in other it will only get worse. Some corruptions will add stat effects, other will limit or give new moves. If you get high enough corruption, you will get a title, which grants tiny amount of positive stat effect. If you're defeated, you will be healed and teleported back to dungeon start, with enemies reset, switches will not reset. Healing is done through healing items outside of battle, and healing at the healer, which is same as being defeated.

Almost forgot to mention, turn order in the battle is not the same as in most turn based RPG's. For example, even if it's 4 on 1 battle, enemy will move after each player move. This means, usual tactic of eliminating weakest enemies first is detrimental, it will only cause stronger enemies move more often.

Content:
Like I said before, it's a bit lacking, mainly it's character outfits in menu, few battle actions and short scenes after clearing dungeon, where girls try out those fetishes on their own. There are good amount of different equipment, but all of them are dungeon specific, once you leave dungeon, it's gone. Like advertised, everything is shown on character in menu, on map and in battle. I really like that!

Overall:
While game is still "demo", it's still a lot of gameplay, it took me 8 hours to completely finish the game, probably could do it in a lot less, but I wanted to get every crate and title. It features a lot of weird fetishes, that are too weird even for me. You can skip fetishes by skipping dungeons, but by doing so, you will forfeit items in it. If you skip too many, you will have too few healing potions, which will make later dungeons hard to progress.

Verdict:
The game already features a lot of interesting ideas, there's a lot different of fetishes, some are perhaps too weird, but most of them aren't explored enough. Art content is a bit lacking, but it's well made. As for V0.10, it's 4/5, it's really good but there's still a lot of room of improvement, I bet it will become a masterpiece once finished.

Played through the first three labyrinths in full and skimmed a couple others. Once you've played one dungeon you've played them all: you basically just keep mindlessly grinding until you get all your ero stats to full, at which point beating the main boss of the labyrinth is trivial. The fetishes are definitely diverse, but are very polarizing.... I imagine most playing won't want a number of them, though skipping a labyrinth means missing out on items and thus "feels" wrong.

The characterization is fairly on point. Each character talks like how they should, and the art is generally quite good. Homura being there only to give missions feels like a waste. The gameplay is far too mindless and is trivially easy, in that you can just put your strongest attack as the first option and spam E over and over... no need to even look at the screen while fighting. Do this enough to level everything up and you win, without ever needing to use any of the other abilities you have.

The game is also made in Gadot engine, but functions like it were made in RPG maker. It is unclear to me why this choice was made when Gadot could do much more.

Generic Art: 4/5. Passable for an RPG, nothing special.
User Interface: 5/5, surprisingly solid for a game of this type. Needs more explanation rather than the current tutorial system.
Gameplay: 2/5. Fun basic loop at the start, until you realize you can just spam
Replayability: 1/5. You've played one Labyrinth, you've played them all.
Lewd scenes: 1/5. They're there and are generally do a reasonable job adhering to the characters' personalities, but are pretty lackluster. Maybe a panty shot. The main lewdness comes within the Labyrinths themselves.

[v0.10]

Very promising.

There's lots of dialogue, enemies, skills, stats, gear, skills and visuals.

The only problems is that you get to grind for the specific dungeon stats and getting past swiftly rotating and densely packed enemy sights with an entire party is often impossible.

Wow!...

Graphics are pretty ok, controls are also very nice but at first time it can be confusing... like i was for first few min trying to find out how to control this game...

but after while i understand why this game is made this way, so You can play with single hand ( Q E W A S D ) - So You can use other hand ( right one ) for something else #lol

Kinda sad that girl don't want to undress just like that
( Yes first thing i was trying to do was to undress them all xD )

I like this game :3...
Please make Discord server so i can follow and see new updates!...
