I was very impressed with this game. Though I have barely an idea about the story of the Avatar series I was able to dive right into the story!
I really liked the options of the love and the slave route, going all-in on both sides instead of having some half-assed middle-way nobody is content with.
Now I'll compare this game with Akubar's witch and princess trainer because the comparison is obvious, but also because this game doesn't have to be ashamed when compared:
- Most important thing first: In terms of sex scenes this game has even more to offer than princess trainer and way, way, waaaay more than witch trainer (yeah, not that difficult, I know).
The point definitely goes to this game here, especially since all sex scenes are full-screen (often times animated) instead of those small dolls humping each other.
Akubar's drawings are a tad better in my opinion, but this game is short by only a small margin.
At the time of this release you could already access two of the four chapters and the art definitely improved by a lot in the second one. If this continues we can look forward to an amazingly looking game.
Personally I definitely appreciated that there weren't any characters with giant breasts around, the developer decided to keep it realistic in this regard instead of going the hentai route.
- dialogue-wise I prefer Akubar's humor, but that's a preference thing. Maybe I just didn't get some of the jokes because I saw Aladdin and Harry Potter, but not Avatar.
The dialogues are still very, very solid and not a weak point. Especially the multiple endings really impressed me: Not only are there two ways you can play this game in general, there's also multiple endings and small decisions for each of them. That great!
- The grinding is way lower and can quite easily be done between the daily events, the balancing is honestly quite impressive: The developer somehow managed to keep me short enough on money that I always needed some, but outside of the absolute endgame I was never flooded.
It definitely helped that you could spend your money on having sex ; )
Here there's multiple options again: Do you spend it being a sugar-daddy to a sweet girl or do you blackmail a prisoner to be your sex slave?
- Another thing about the sex scenes: Some major effort went into those scenes, not only animation-wise but also considering interaction: You can switch positions and sometimes there's new possibilities as the story progresses. The sex scenes in this game are simply amazing!
- One small issue I have with this game is how it seems to want to copy Akubar when it really doesn't have to. The most obvious "inspirations" are the hooded shady guy, some of the music (correct me if I'm wrong) and the whole structure of the "favors". While the last one is convenient, the first two feel unnecessary.
Then again as a gamer I know how Age of Empires and Starcraft: Brood War shaped the way that strategy games look up to this day, 20 years later! Maybe some of those things were meant as hommages rather than "stealing only from the best".
Now stop reading this review and play this game already!
