Unreal Engine - Fallen Doll: Operation Lovecraft [v0.4.9 Cracked] [Project Helius]

as far as i remember this game is made by the same "studio" whose ditched fallen doll, just for this????? OMFG
bruh this aint even worth for your time just to pirate it, GTFO
sincinbearcity below already describe why it's so bad
3 years i have waited just for a massive scam and garbage

i love this game / tech demo, and hope it goes back to it's vr roots. the development cycle ranges from chaotic to emotionally abusive, and you'd be crazy to give more than the minimum contribution, but the women are attractive, the creatures are crazy, and the animations are numerous.

the discord discussion is at least 30% people complaining that steam forbids pedophilia, but otherwise it's amusing.

An interesting "game" with great animations, graphics and characters, just to be ended up turned into a grindy multiplayer gacha that's also buggy as hell. I don't expect the development goes into a positive way.

What a waste.

The best animations and physics, character design (from an artist that doesn't work on the project anymore), and that is all this "game" offers. It will never be finished, it will keep milking its patreons for years to come because that's how thirsty the poor souls that support this scammer are.

This was a promising game 2 years ago. Now it's basically a scam. The latest update was over a year ago. But the worst part is that as far as content goes, it's essentially been 2 FULL years since a robust content update. Early 2021 they release version 0.34, which was the latest single player version. Then they spend the majority of 2021 making promises on patreon, while rebuilding the game into a gacha style game in multiplayer Harem mode. No more updates to the single player gallery, all updates will now be forced multiplayer. A game where all the content is essentially jacking off to animations and liking another dude's chosen animation. There's no GAMEPLAY, no campaign mode, nothing but choosing an animation to play, jack off for 10 min, then log off.

That Harem online only mode update released late 2021. And then they decided because of the poor performance of the game, it needed to be REBUILT a second time. So, now over a year after the latest update for the game, we still have no new content, whilst the game dev constantly took money from Patreons, promising campaign features, battlepasses, more characters, etc etc. This has become a scam.

No one asked for multiplayer, but they rebuilt the game around it anyway to make the game unbearably grindy. Then they realized it was so bad, so they spend another freaking year rebuilding the game a 2nd time. Don't be surprised if after an early 2023 release, they'll spend another full year to rebuild the game in UE5, which they've already said they would do.

Do not waste your money on this game. Years and years of promise after promise, and they still haven't release even the first "battle-pass" of theirs. After 2+ years, we still have the same 3 OG characters. Some animations from 0.34 were even removed from the online Harem mode, since Steam didn't approve of them. You've been warned. If you continue to support this game, please send some money my way because I'd like to receive money for empty promises as well.

Unquestionably great animations and inhuman sex content with main characters that would appeal to most people. The game's biggest letdown are its developers who basically stopped trying once they actually released a very unstable game. It's clear that they were only good for making porn animations, which this game has spent most of its life being and even now (albeit with some level of poorly thought out gameplay).

Expect terrible performance and a development team that will almost never communicate with its player base except for vague development updates. Also, never make the mistake of expecting this game to ever be finished before the devs finally give up.

I love it !
* it has great physics of body movements, to me it feels better than any other games i played, very good options in graphics rendering and easy controls
* i would love to see more of it online and mmorpg

Try to be adequate, so let's score 0 to 5 - gameplay, graphics, plot, sound, and considering it porn game, need to compare sex scene - customization, interactivity, manipulation, animation, physics.

gameplay / plot - 1
sound - 3
graphics - 5
animation / physics - 5
interactivity / manipulation / customization - 1

1+3+5+5+1/5=
Total score is 3

Story - N/A
Originality - 50%
Renders - 100%
Playability - 100%
Performance - 100%
Bugs free - 100%
Animations - 100%
Amount of content - 60%

Total: 87%

Crisp quality porn, some content is sadly behind paywall but otherwise one of the best porn games available. Unfortunately the full game release on Steam is on stall, but hopefully that'll be resolved soon.

Great graphics, no gameplay. Gallery mode has better graphics, the online mode you'll have to pay (or get the crack), has more "stuff" supposedly with worse graphics, and the only little bit of "gameplay" you can have (walking around).
Due to F95 review policies this review will not be touching on the elephant in the room, see discussion for more info.

Development stalled, ongoing since 2014 and on Patreon since 2016 but currently equates to an animation viewer with a single map and three playable characters.

Throughout development Helius has also changed the project from a horror game with porn elements to a multiplayer F2P gacha machine with no campaign and quarterly season passes.

Last update was ~10 months ago which had a severely negative response, no updates since and dev's primary output has now become concept art. Very little detail provided about ongoing development so seems likely project is in the process of crashing hard as inexperienced devs seem to be struggling to progress the project.

If you're planning on supporting this, don't. Wait until they release the game. It is kind of sad that this became another cash grab, I won't be surprised if the devs abandon this on the pretext of making a much 'better' game in order to milk unsuspecting Patreons anew. I was into this because of the campaign. Now that this has became a multiplayer gacha with little to no progress despite how many years this has started development, I don't see any hope for this. This has become one of the most successful scam in video game history, with supporters high on copium still defending these devs despite releasing a game that is entirely different to what they initially promised.

Update:
Raising the score a little, because they kept beta access for old supporters. But, nothing has changed. When they said they were switching to Unreal 5, and again that doesn't take anywhere near 1 year with what they had, they said they were doing it to improve performance. It did not improve. In fact I believe it was worse for a while after release. I didn't play it much, because it was the same game and nothing changed. I think as of writing this performance did improve a little. The only thing that was added was a new character and some scenes for her. It again feels like variations of the others, but for this new girl. Funnily, some scenes were actually removed on their new beta release and there was even less content. I think that is also resolved now, but only to be equal to over a year ago not including the new character and new location, which is a 3DX chat looking nightclub without the game part.

I still REALLY DO NOT RECOMMEND supporting for a variety of reasons. Firstly, we know it's going to be gatcha/p2w and they've already started implementing those mechanics rather than refining or adding to the gameplay. Secondly, do you really want to support devs leeching money for consistently failing to meet deadlines and showing things that they could add but haven't yet?

It's obvious they are not in a rush. They probably have kept their dayjobs. Way before now there was supposed to be cumflation, birthing, new creatures and poses, and a bondage system. They are still updating it to be at those levels.

Updated score: 2/5
Good looking art, where it has been developed. But there is no game yet. It is an online gallery viewer where you are forced to share the environment with other random players while you look for a spot to plop yourself and your virtual plower. The options you have while viewing are also barebones and tempremental. The like system is just awkward and will not work out for a lot of people. Likes need to go out, but who extends trust first? What if you like someone, but they're in a process of trading likes with someone else already? This does not equate anywhere near to gameplay and I don't really understand what their end goal for this project is supposed to be in that manner. Will still watch this for updates and change score overtime if I am still interested in such things by the time they release.



OLDER REVIEW:
Do not - DO NOT - subscribe to this scam and please ignore the shill bots rating this 5 stars.

Upfront: this is a mediocre porn experience at best. There are an OK amount of animations. But then they're split between 3 characters, meaning a lot of duplicates... meaning there's not actually a lot of animations. You're 100x better off modding Skyrim.

There's no gameplay, same as wildlife, except the wildlife team actually delivers updates and are way more transparent than these guys.

What this is promised to be on paper is good, but guess what? They're taking an obscene amount of time in delivering it. For all we know it might even already be done. What incentive would you have to release a product when people are happily willing to pay you an engineer's annual salary every month to wait for? The irony being they'd have more incentive to finish this WITHOUT your support.

Read the thread. Read their steam community page. Read the negative reviews. You have been warned. If still you support this, then maybe you deserve to have your money thrown away, but these guys definitely don't deserve to get it.

old review: EA on steam drew a bunch of new supporters and a total of 1 update only which added a few sex scenes. Now they're working on moving 1 asset a month to unreal 5 engine. With the amount of assets they have, the process should be complete in a couple years and then they can continue making the game. Even Chris Roberts has more integrity than this.

Reviewed on v0.4.9.

I really don't like writing a review for an incomplete game but after following this game for a while, I must say this one's future doesn't look good at all.
This game is basically an animation viewer right now and it doesn't look like it is gonna change anytime soon. The only positive thing this game has is decent graphics and that's it.

This game is one of the best in terms of graphics and selection I've seen from these types of game. The progress of the game seems to steadily go forward and the available content that already exist is spectacular.

Absolutely atrociously designed game that has gone down the gutter, huge disappointment from a dev that has stopped listening and doesn't give a crap any longer.

For many years this game used to be of actual quality: Every month you would be excited to receive new high quality scenes added to the catalogue which were well made and very enjoyable. The updates were exciting and the quality was great.

Today: The game design is forcing a MULTIPLAYER porn game down your throat, with absolutely atrocious and terrible grinding system. Basically the dev used an opportunity to force this game to be multiplayer in order to receive some sort of support or whatever, and he's sticking to it. Turning this game into something it's not meant to be. A terrible experience.

Quality and performance is absolute garbage in multiplayer compared to offlane library. The texture and graphics quality look so good in library mode, but in online sometimes textures don't even look right and you're basically getting half the quality.

Grinding: Oh you wanted to just relax and enjoy some hot scenes? Well too bad! Now you have to grind and waste your time repeatedly in order to unlock scenes. Oh it doesn't end there though. Every time you want to play new scenes, you have to walk around and find the right spot to play the next scene. Basically good luck enjoying this porn game now because it's being shoved down your throat as a grinding mmo game.

WE WERE VERY PATIENT. For literally many many months feedback was given, and ignored, and ignored, and ignored again. The dev does not give a flying fudge anymore. The game is being forced into multiplayer and that's just how it is. Basically too bad if you supported a game that you loved, because that version won't be provided to you anymore.

The fact that they though this would be a good idea is just absolutely astonishing. Really hope this backfires on this dev.

This used to be my number one hentai game of all time. It was a master course on how to handle 3D animation. Gorgeous and with so much potential. But then the money rolled in....

After 2 million dollars in 3rd party funding and an absolutely MASSIVE crowd funding haul monthly, they have turned this beautiful game into a mobile gacha nightmare.

Energy limits, currencies, daily quests, loot boxes, microtransactions, always online, offline content no longer updated and a completely SFW story mode. They went back on every promise they made. Not one person in the universe asked for this. No one. Yet here we are. Money trumps all.

I invested in this game for two entire years and not once was any of this mentioned to their patrons. No mention of gacha and microtransactions. Do not give these people a penny more. They're running with their millions and leaving us all in the dust.

This title has always been visually appealing, even it's first iteration in the club was interesting, but it quite quickly became apparent things wasn't moving along. This is following the same pattern where we get new visual goodies and animations every now and then.
Despite a number of years of development its still not a game as much as a techdemo. Couple this with their latest idea of "fun": an always-online gatcha pay-to-play model and you've reached peak shitty development.

The animation are nice when everything is working, but now that this is going online everything is rarely working.

Add on that this is now a huge grind/microtransaction fest that takes either years of grinding just for whats planned on release or thousands of dollars and this isn't worth your time or money. It's just here to milk money from you.

Just going to edit this to add the devs are now planning to go full cloud gaming only for this. Just don't bother.
