RPGM - Completed - Fallen ~Makina and the City of Ruins~ [Another Story/Kagura Games]

While I normally avoid RPGM games, I'm very glad I didn't with this one. It is just about everything you could want out of an erotic RPGM game.

Options, that's the first word that comes to mind when thinking about the 10+ hours I spent on this game. Do you want to actually play a pretty well done RPGM game? You can absolutely play it straight? Do you want to blast through and just see smut? You can do that as well, with an npc on the first level of the dungeon that sells 'level ups' for very cheap. You can choose to avoid monsters or fight almost all of them. You can choose to play as a virtuous character and lock yourself out of HScenes, or not (why would you tho?). These sorts of options really give you agency in an RPGM game that is by it's very nature on rails.

Further more, no matter how you play, you always have the option after beating the game of just choosing to unlock all the H-scenes, so you aren't missing out on anything if you miss them when they happen in game.

This game does everything spot on, and the only minor criticism I can even suggest is that some sort of 'current quest' option would be a nice addition, because there were times that I booted the game back up and totally forgot what I was doing or where I was going.

Even if you're not normally a fan of RPGM games, like me, I suggest checking this one out.

To start off with, I couldn't find a fault with the translation aspect of the game. Everthing is far better than a machine translation to be sure although you can't escape the stereotypical lines as "my hips move on their own" which is a line I hoped would just be abolished entirely.

On the actual game, it's a nukige RPG maker title. What I mean by that is that it doesn't try to make the gameplay or story engaging and is merely focused on giving you a servicable story and gameplay exprience while focusing on the H-aspect of it all. The game is aware of this fact as it gives you an easy way to level right away which I recommend doing as there is no fun to be had battling. Grinding isn't enjoyable as the exp you get from monsters is far too low to level up at a satisfying rate. Getting very high levels isn't even required as the game throws so much healing items at you, one can easily cheese their way trough "difficult" battles. It all serves as some flavor to build around the H-scenes.

Which is fine as the game doesn't try to be anything different, what you see is what you get evident from nearly all monsters looking like grey blobs before the battle without any orginal sprite provided for em which tells you enough how much focus has been spent on monster battles.

What the game does do good is the scenes themself as the artwork is very pleasant to look. It might not be as good as Melty's quest but it nice to people who are into corruption themed scenarios. What could have been done better is the integration with the story as the scenes themself are disconnected from it as there is no change in the story depending on the amount of depravity one possesses which seems like a missed opportunity to me.

typical uninspired dungeon crawler. lacks many features you'd expect to find in a $15 game such as a standing image outside of dialogue, clothing options, actual adventuring. game is also cheapened by giving you an npc at the start that sells levels for cheap when you don't even need to engage in any non-forced fights to beat the game. shop NPCs are near useless as you get plenty of good gear and more restoratives than you'll possibly ever use from just looting chests in the dungeon. game wouldn't be playable without the 10/10 artwork even though there are not very many scenes.

I normaly get bored with rpg games cause all the reading and eventually it gets old, but this game was jst fantastic to me and easy to understand. I sat and played this game like around 6 hours, theres alot of concent and if u cant find it, there is a walkthrough on the game. and Again I RECOMMEND THIS GAME!

A game with a concrete story with a correct playing time (always too short when it's so good), a talented artist to illustrate this game. I do not say it is perfect, but in any case it easily ranks in the category of the best games I could play.worth of download

story:nicely done and makes sense all the time.

gameplay:good and fast, also you can lvl using gold from the game, wich is nice.

ambient:the music and enviroment seems right, and the maps variety is good enough.

draws: very good with a lot of variety and versions.

scenes(erotics):really hot and also well writen.

conclusion:the games feels good and well done from the begining at the end. but if i have to say someting negative, is about the main female characters.if they are not killing something, or scheming to kill something, they are geting hard love against some wall. i mean there si nothing in bewteen, never crack a joke or pass time with each other (without involve sex inmediattly after) the game is so fast in the plot, that this poor girls has no chill. (i dont know maybe is just me) the thing, this game worth your time (and money)

TL;DR: OK game. Sexy scenes, paper-thin plot, simple gameplay

Gameplay: Easy. You can buy levels with gold, but you shouldn't ever need to. You have to go out of your way to start losing battles. I don't know if there are any 'defeat = rape' cases, but the first boss monster (Lamia) I fought didn't have that scene. Just went straight to Game Over.

Graphics are OK. The game just didn't catch my interest though. In general there is little in the way of choice. You either do something stupid, and get a sex scene, or don't be an idiot and don't. You also make various friends along the way, that is to say you get to know women who will be doing stupid shit and getting fucked.

Here's an early example. You meet a rookie adventurer. Later you find here in the dungeon fighting a minotaur. You rescue her, but she has no money and later you find her getting a loan from a sleezy merchant. You warn her off, and tell the merchant to not rip her off. Then you leave, and she gets fucked.

Here's how it could have been interesting:
You see her fighting the minotaur.
==> You rush to her rescue!
==> You wait, watching for a better opportunity to attack.

If you wait, the minotaur defeats her and rips her clothing off.
==> Attack while the minotaur is distracted!
(Get surprise attack round +Depravity)
==> Watch how things develop
Rookie adventurer gets raped, while you are busy with your hands, you are ambushed from behind. GAME OVER

Later, when you see her at the merchants getting a loan you warn her off, but when you're leaving you worry whether the merchant will really give her a fair deal.
==> *Shrug* You're sure she's fine.
==> Go back.

When you go back you see the merchant demand her virginity for 'collateral'.
==> Threaten him to get him to back off
==> Stay hidden and watch (+Depravity)
==> Tell her that she doesn't have to sleep with that fat, middle-aged man for money. You'll give her 200 a day to fuck her instead. (++Depravity)

OK, if they did stuff like this it would take a lot more effort. But I think a shorter game with more variety would be better than a longer boring game.
