version: 0.3.3
finally tested this game out. first things first. i already had the pleasure of talking with the dev in person back then on discord. i can tell you that he is very responsive and always has an ear for ideas and improvements. he also shares (or at least shared) his work on the f95 discord from time to time.
let's talk about the game.
story: nothing to write home about, but enough to settle the mood and let the game play in its own reality. you basically play as an "engineered" human being that fights for the cause of the church against monsters and creatures coming from a different universe. not only can you cast magic like the enemy, you are also capable of getting so old, even merlin would be jealous. with your help war was won and lots of those creatues got enslaved. you settled down in an old mansion and started buying one of these slaves. over the course of the journey you will not only fight the anger deep within you against the creatues you fought, but also question the church as to why there had to be a war like this in the first place.
surely, the story could be a bit deeper and enthralling, but it gets the job done. the game ain't a text based game anyway. it's also clearly visible that english is not the dev's mother-tongue, so i wont go harsh here with him. surprisingly, i couldn't find many spelling errors and every sentence was clearly understandable. nice!
gameplay: that's where the game currently is lacking. it's very barebones. it plays like a sandbox game with rooms in your house and some locations on the map. but lots of stuff are either currently under development or simply serve no feature. your slave, an elf by the way (later on you will get a second slave, an orc) can be dragged along, but most rooms like the pool serve no purpose. the orc can be fed but it won't change her feeding status at all. that elf wants a book from you but you can't buy it yet. the shop for slaveowners barely has anything either. in short: this game is still very early alpha and will probably stay like that for at least a year before it has some serious meat on its bones. that being said, what i've seen so far was pretty good! the characters are likeable and at least partly believeable. i like the whole atmosphere the slave trader is giving me (eerie and lonely feeling, very medieval type'ish) and i hope it will reflect the town you are living in as well. it would fit the story imo. right now you can only do three things: increase relationship, increase submissiveness and feeding your slave. the game doesn't seem to feature different types of slave ownerships and instead goes heavily into the friendly and nonabusive story line. so don't expect a game where you absolutely dominate dat girl or be cold as ice. see it more as a game where the mc and his slave learn from and help each other. fetish-wise its pretty vanilla currently with an emphasis on petit girls, which is refreshing. i barely see devs going for adult or at least teen petits. most go straight the loli line. no sex scenes yet, the most daring scenes so far is your slave showing you her pussy.
graphics: graphically it's pretty good. it's fully made in pixel art, hence why i suspect it will take this game some time to get a good amount of content. but it's worth the trade off i think as the quality speaks for itself. sure, some pictures look a tad bit bland, like the bedroom of the mc where his bed looks more like a brick than anything, but other scenes like your slave taking a shower are top notch. one thing though... redo the mc's dick pls, dev. that thing looks like a scary mushroom!
sound & music: there is some elevator music going in the background, but no voice acting or anything. it's okay, doesn't annoy, doesn't get in the way. ain't a milestone either though. you can play the game muted without missing on anything.
bugs: i had one bug. fast forwarding a training or work and then rolling back can cause the info like stress+ or submissiveness+ to stay on your screen permanently. can be easily fixed by saving and loading that save.
overall i'd say it's a pretty good start. story is fine, characters aren't totally faceless, there is potential for a cool atmosphere for the game (town clearly needs some work there though), we got the foundations for some activities, art is pretty good and the game is stable. i hope we will get multiple choices that actually matter in the future. right now current choices only change maybe the way her collar looks and some lines she says. and ofc i hope we will get treated with some intercourse at some point ^^. who knows what it will lead to: bdsm, pregnancy, watersport. up to the dev to surprise us. even though it doesn't have much fapping material yet, i would totally keep my eyes pealed for this game. could become a very good one!
4/5
