    one of the best games I have played, the story is awesome, and the visuals are great as well. The world of eternum developer created here is addictive and makes you want more of it.
    Really looking forward to the future updates

    After playing through all the latest update, I can confirm that I am quite addicted to this game. The dev has created something quite bewitching..

    I rarely play male orientated games but after seeing so many people with Eternum fan sigs, my curiosity got the better of me.

    The dev has skillfully created a virtual novel where the characters are very unique and very likeable. The main character is actually likeable too and not the usual "bitches be there to be fucked" stereotype portrayed in so many other games on here. Okay, he can be a bit that way, if you choose, because there are options on how you wish your character to act when talking to the girls and usually, acting the creep will lose you popularity. For the most part, the MC is actually quite a polite, sensible and respectful guy.

    The girls all have their own personalities and interests which makes them feel more than just rendered walking cleavages. I love Alex because she takes no shit and is quite a strong character plus she hates her rich family.
    Nova is my second favorite and is totally cute! her dry, twisted humor is just so damn good, plus she gives goth vibes!

    The dev has done an amazing job on the renders and sounds, it really does help to immerse the player into this virtual story. Talking of story, the plotline is very enjoyable and really opens up once the online MMO stuff comes into play.

    I found myself getting quite sucked into the game and actually felt disappointed when the end of the content came. It was a pleasant surprise and makes me really look forward to the next update.

    Eternum is without doubt, one of the top games on here. I recommend it.

    A solid game with great writing. Beautiful renders and likeable characters. Although the plot feels commonly used, the execution of it in this game is outstanding.

    As far as antagonists go, I don't think we've seen the real ones yet but the school bully writing seems a bit underwhelming compared to the rest of the game in terms of depth. MC seems a bit mary sue but that may or may not be a plus in harem games.

    Loved the tech lore in this as well as the horror elements. A couple of scenes makes you feel cool af despite the lighthearted writing style.

    I think the girls each have their own things going on but seems like they all fall into the categorization of 'kind personality with backstory'. Would like to see some morally grey characters to balance things out as of right now the characters are entirely just or entirely corrupt.

    4/5 definitely a must try

    Let me tell you about this game.

    The animations are first class. The world building ist something new for me and I really enjoy it.
    But the best part of the game ist by far Cheng, almost every scene with him makes me laugh.
    I hope to see him more.
    Anyways it is a great game with great characters.
    I recommend

    Top game on this site, love the animation, the story is what kept me playin this game all night.
    Lack of sex scenes might be off putting for some but the game makes up for it in terms of character and story development which is greatly appreciated.
    The animations are top class also the dev has put a ton of effort in making the game fun to play.
    Cheers.

    This game is straight up hilarious, I broke out laughing playing this! Chang is great, the girls are really cute and endearing, and I'm enjoying the story as a sucker for isekai anime's.

    Thanks Caribdis!

    This is easily one of the, if not the best game on this platform. From the models to the story to the characters and the jokes, it's brilliant. The MC is a smart character and the other LIs also have their own unique characteristics which is not present in every game.

    My fucking god. In playing this game I was again reminded to never judge a game by it's version number. I've had so much fun playing and I haven't even reached the end of 0.3 yet.
    • The visuals are fantastic, some of the games that use illusion engines have been good but this one takes the cake.
    • The way the scenes are set by the music is so immersive, it takes a skilled hand to evoke feelings in the way this game has.
    • To top it all of the dialogue feels so real(porn bs aside) in turn making the characters and world feel real.
    • And by far the best part, the hilarity of the comedy made me not just slightly exhale through my nose but actually laugh out loud.
    Overall this game is the gold standard and it's no surprise that it's the first game to appear when searching with the " Weighted Rating" filter.

    Amazing story and animations. Not a big fan of horror aspects but it was well implemented into the story and genuinely added to it. And this is at v0.3 too, I can't wait to see what unfolds in later updates.

    Such a good game, I cannot believe how much work this would have taken to implement. Not only is the game's story wonderful, it also has some cool animations developed into it. I love all the characters and everything they have done so far. I personally like how they focused more on the character development more rather than sex scenes.

    Reviewed as of version 0.3
    I try to keep the five-star reviews down so that it counts, when a game gets one. This game though, this game absolutely deserves it.
    I waited until we are now three updates in, just to be sure, even though the dev's first game was already good enough to know that this wasn't just a fluke of quality at the beginning.

    It's a great SF story, it has a whole array of hot ladies, it has humour, it has lots of diverse settings.
    It's a game I would gladly play without any sex scenes, because the story and writing are just good enough for that.
    Not to say that the porn isn't good as well. MC eating out Nancy in the Roman baths in this latest episode was sweet as fuck.

    I guess you do have to like anime, to appreciate some of the characters and tropes here, but it definitely is fun even if you don't.

    I can't really think of anything negative to say about the game.
    The updates are large and satisfying, the game looks good, the girls look great. Animations are sparse but fine.
    Really, this is just a joy to play. I can imagine someone liking it not that much, if they aren't into honey select models, anime, Fantasy and/or SF, but even then the quality of it all should make it clear that this is a well-crafted, well-made game.

    Absolutely love the feel of this VN. Great story writing with a range of diverse and appealing characters. Definitely one of the best stories out there which grips you, beautifully balanced by appealing girls who you want the main character to get to know more. Can't wait to see the story progress further.

    Genuinely super impressed.

    I didn't have the highest of hopes when starting the game. Expected a pretty generic harem game with a fantasy touch. It isn't.

    Good renders, well-done animation, surprisingly intriguing plot-line on a well-paced slow burn, good world-building, likeable characters, but most of all some of the best writing I have seen in an adult game.

    Genuinely made me smile and/or laugh at multiple parts. One reveal with the character Nova made me think "that is actually super badass" and made me forget I was playing an adult game and not a AAA JRPG or reading/watching a popular manga/anime.

    In one scene, when the game tried to be creepy/scary (easily skippable/fast-forwardable for those of us out there who don't like frights), it was genuinely well-done and I was very impressed with the game quality. The mechanic used in that scene could easily be translated into a chapter of a new Resident Evil or Silent Hill game and be viewed as one of the iconic scenes of said game.

    The core girls in the harem are all very likeable and I actually look forward to all of their stories, unlike most games where at least one girl ends up being fast-forward bait. Even the "best friend" character brings genuine laughs and is a likeable guy that you end up rooting for to be happy. A later joke with him had me genuinely laughing, and I'm really looking forward to the payoff.

    One other note--I've gone long on this review as I'm genuinely super impressed--the overall game concept (the Eternum game) is honestly genius. It allows for a genuinely interesting real world plot-line, but also gives the developer(s) the opportunity to use any setting/genre they're interested in. Already, we've seen classical Greek/Roman, noir, fantasy, magic schools, cyberpunk, etc. Super creative idea that allows for more creativity in the future.

    Will very much be looking forward to future updates and chapters of the game (the v0.3 tag means that the game currently has three full chapters, which are surprisingly long, wrap up their mini-stories well, and ends on a satisfying cliffhanger). The game dev's vision is one I'm genuinely interested in following, although I certainly wouldn't complain if we got more Penelope Instagram/modeling/photo-shoot scenes!

    Very interesting writing, really looking forward for the complete version. Despite being an adult game, the story telling is intriguing and the author is able to use it to enrich each character's traits and personalities.
    During the play through, this is much like reading a web novel, but with a lot more illustration.

    Great work!

    One of the most enjoyable games I've ever played. It has excellent quality, stunning artwork, a very well-written and interesting tale, and a perfect soundtrack. It's highly enjoyable to play while also soothing and comfortable in general. Several times during this emotional rollercoaster, I've temporarily forgotten about the sexy part of the game. After you start playing it, you won't be able to quit.

    [v0.3]
    My favorite porn game on this website.

    The amount of detail that went into the renders is incredible....

    My favorites ones are the ones in Ogygia(props for the animations in this one) and Ion(in that order)

    And the whole concept of visiting different worlds all the time, allowing to keep everything fresh with new sceneries and different type of ambiances, is also very well used ! Usually it'd be Quality over Quantity but in this case it appears to have both.

    Every models are beautiful, characters have all their own traits, the story is interesting...

    H-scenes are also well done :)

    If there were a vote for #1 game on here, I would vote this without a second thought.

    I hope it does not to end too early. And I hope the antagonists don't get defeated too easily and it keeps being interesting.

    I almost forgot, but the BGM was actually very good too.

    Story : 5/5 (seriously I love it)
    Renders : 5/5
    BGM : 5/5
    Animations : 4/5
    Entertainment : 5/5 (This is how easily entertained I was throughout)

    Well, there're things coming together that make the characters not work. First, the models are kind of ugly, faces as well as bodies. Next, some sexual situations are loose and generic, seen in a thousand other games before. There's not really a sense of conquest through meaningful moments.
    Some overblown humor tries to make you fall in love with them, it's not enough.

    When the VR software "Eternum" starts, anything can happen through every setting, that's enthralling to think about, so much so that I'd love to see more VR ideas in other VNs. Come to think of it, what would really rescue this game for me would be if you deleted 99% of all text and built the images more around that. Right now, it seems the only bearable way.
