    Clear 5 stars.

    Witty, gripping, and just an all-around great experience. Caribdis carries on with their excellent game design displayed in OIAL and even surpasses it with Eternum.

    The setting is great giving not only one world, but two with the Eternum realms (or more if you count all the servers.) The characters are just fun to be around with enough variety to satisfy just about anyone.

    The graphics are honestly very impressive and immersive. The girls look great and unique. I wanted to get to know them and see more of them and the game hasn't disappointed so far in that regard.

    There's just so much flavor in the game and it keeps it fresh. You bounce around from comedy to sexy to horror and back to comedy multiple times without the flow feeling unnatural or forced. Each day brings something new and that truly is a great feat.

    I think it's clear at this point that Caribdis knows how to make an entertaining VN and it isn't a surprise Eternum tops the weighted rating charts of F95.

    One to watch, one to play, one to support. If the current level of quality continues, we very well could be looking at one of the greatest western-made Visual Novels.

    Gets the mix of stunning visuals (including effects rarely seen in VNs), cool/sexy/adorable/funny characters, an engaging "damn, I want to know what happens next!" plot, good jumpscares (especially for a non-realtime game!) and good comedy just right.

    Top notch game/VN, can't wait for the next update!

    Engaging plot, excellent writing, love the movie references and the jokes actually made me laugh a lot, this is easily one of my top favorite NSFW games of all times and it's not even finished

    Girls are HOT AF and the mechanics are smooth

    Keep up the great work!

    Really the story is decent and the main character looks like at his age. Art style is good or i say better. I enjoyed this game. This story has something that catch me untile last time. Really like it

    This is pretty creative and has a lot of content. I'm not even done yet. Still, I just feel like the dialogue can be pretty long-winded. There are some parts that make me chuckle but it just gets kind of tedious at some point. It just gets too boring to read all of it.
    That is literally the only thing I can say that I don't like about the game. Everything else is so beyond the scope of a typical VN that I still think I should give it 5 stars.

    What a gem of a game. Came for fap and the nice renders,.. stayed for the story.

    The game is super immersive, funny and well written. I rarely write reviews and I had to for this game, since its a must play!

    I'll try to write an extended commentary on the game. The game is definitely worth playing. First of all, the story. I think we don't even need to talk about it. Everybody is fed up with milfs, incest, colleges and other crap. In Eternity the plot absorbs you into a whirl of interesting and exciting events unfolding in virtual reality, not letting you go literally for a minute, presenting each time something interesting. Secondly, the humour, the references, the narration. The author has very coolly thought out his game universe. What about the visit to the spaceport in the last part? Suspense, mystery and a quiet breath of *something*. Oh, and about the "0.4 wasn't impressive, no sex" thing, you can go play a bunch of other dumb games where you jump on the MC right at the beginning of the game. The author develops the story smoothly, paying more attention to the story without chasing the stupid stereotypical behaviour of the characters. masterpiece, I recommend it!

    The humour in the story makes up for how silly the plot is, which isn't necessarily negative from a chronological or overall standpoint. But it's by no means the least likely element of the tale. I can't give this anything less than 5 stars.

    The fact that Caribdis' writing is simply outstanding definitely helps. The fact that I never skip a line of conversation in his game tells something in and of itself. The plot advances at a respectable speed, there is intrigue and action, but all of this serves as as a vehicle to offer lots of hot sequences to satisfy my repulsive cravings. It strikes that perfect balance between being porn with a story and having a story that actually makes sense and isn't completely absurd.
    Additionally amazing are the sound effects and music

    If you are looking for a good game to spend some time on, it doesn't get better than this. Every update delivers more great scenes, comedy and story. The plot is actually interesting, the romance is cute and the music is on point.

    This is a masterpiece, no doubt about that. The graphics, story, humor are all improvements on authors previous game. The idea of eternum is quite genius to justify multiple settings, puzzles and interactions. Even though I am not a big fan of anime faces this game is just too good to pass by. And yes, the music and sound effects really make the gameplay so much better.

    I have never played a Ren'py game before that was actually good at both storyline and animation. In all my years of experience, Eternum brings out the usual, linear approach of these kinds of games. It's definitely not your usual REN'PY game. +bonus points: to the comedic parts of the game and the wide plot that makes it more engaging and mysteriously satisfying.

    The models are good, yes itas a 5 star rating and doesn't start so good. Animations are scarce but good quality. BUT the story is where it shines, I don't know if it's just that it ticks all the right boxes for me, but is inmersive, original and the theme is perfect.

    This is the only game I've played so far that let me know what sheer, complete immersion is really like.
    Its remarkably sophisticated visuals, highly engaging plot, and vast game universe are surpassed by none, I dare to say.
    FWIW, I've played versions 0.3 and 0.4 of this cinematic, literary masterpiece.
    I wish there were a VR VERSION as well.

    Legitimately one of, if not the most, innovative and groundbreaking visual novels on f95. Stunning art and animation, fantastic use of sound and music, and a story that is engaging and complex, but not too hard to follow. The game's characters, from main ones to incidental ones, are written so well. Pushes the limits of what a VN can be.

    I've been wanting to rate this for a while now. If you're reading, you're probably on the fence about playing... perhaps thinking the same things I was:

    I implore you to download and give it a try right now.

    Few developers in this industry are as talented as Caribdis, and it truly shows in Eternum. Initially, I was on the fence about a game about "virtual reality" because in my mind, porn is best experienced in reality.

    Holy shit, I was dead wrong to hesitate! Or rather... I should've known this developer would make it work. And he does... fucking expertly!

    "Eternum" is less of a "virtual reality" and more of an "alternate reality" where most rules and laws of the world do not apply. I could go into great detail about how much potential this has, and how fun it is to explore this in the context of the story... but sticking to the "porn" for a minute:

    Since "Eternum players" are not just controlling an avatar, it absolutely works. In Eternum, players are exact/identical replicas of their real-world selves. They can feel pleasure, pain, you name it... and there's even something else that can happen that really ups the stakes of it all and makes it more weighty, though that's a big spoiler.

    Anyway, you probably don't want to hear me talk about how great this game is all day, so I'll get to the rating... but just know this: this is... by far... one of the best choice-driven adult video games ever created, and I'd fight anyone who tries to say otherwise (because they're dead wrong).

    Story & Writing: 9.8
    Graphics & Animations: 9.8
    Sexual Content: 9.6
    Choices & Flexibility: 9.4
    General Gameplay: 9.9
    Character Personalities: 9.8
    Character Appearances: 9.9
    Production Quality & Polish: 10
    Music & Ambience: 9.5
    Sound Effects: 10
    Length & Development: 10

    I'm not the best at maths, but the game is a fuckin' 10. I give it a resounding "play this shit, you idiot."

    Excellent!This game is absolutely fantastic! Beautiful and characteristic roles(PERFECT models ever seen! seriously!), storyline, music, the unlimited Eternum world...There are many elements about different videogames, movies, anima, manga, OTAKU culture in the story. So friendly to guys who like games&anima(such as me ). I enjoy it. Definitely it deserves a FIVE STAR. (it deserves a 10/5 in fact). It is my Top1 AVN.

    Edit1: I come here mainly beacuse of the beaultiful models, but after playing it, i am deeply impressed by the storyline, suitable music, unlimited imaginationworlds, and the most imprortant part-characters.
    Eternum is the epitome of "came for the porn, stayed for the story" on this site.

    Edit2: After the release of the 0.6 virsion, I want to say something about how i feel during play, not much about the contents, most about feelings. The story of Eternum is designed so good, the main characters are so vivid and specific. I cant help been attracted by the girls: their personality, their weekness, their wish, their love, and their struggle&effert to become themselves. So touching. the sexy scenes are good(so good in fact),but I regard them as the SO natural parts of the developing love relationship between MC and girls. They understand, respect, accompany, support each other, so good.
    For me, Playing Eternum is mainly about porn in the begining, then more about the story, and now I care more and more about each character. Luckily, Caribdis is a brilliant developer that can treat LIs well. I will wait and expect which place they could arrive. Keep going.

    One of the few games that just gives me pure joy when playing it.

    While the story is quite good it can feel a bit disjointed at times, but the characters and the writing in general absolutely push this game into masterpiece status.

    One of the the best VNs you can find!
