Intro and rambling
I first came to this site somewhere between December 2017 and Jan 2018, and it was because this is where google sent me when searching for "Avatar porn game". Why did I even search that? Some rando on reddit mentioned that there's an amazing porn game within the Avatar universe, and I thought "Well, it is my favorite anime (yes, anime) of all time, so why not?"
Maaaaan was that a good choice. Not only because it lead me to the best porn forum on the internet, it also lead me to the best "Vanilla" porn game of all time, which is, ofc, Four Elements Trainer.
What is this game?
Well, it's a trainer game in the same vein as Akabaru's trainers (except, you know, good). You get to degrade a girl, slap her tits, spit on her, maybe some water-sports. The usual. By the end she loves being abused by you, because hentai logic.
HOWEVER! This game is good. I mean really good. Is it a bit stupid? Yes. Is it charming? Insanely. Is it true to the characters? Except that they are all hentai protagonists, yes. Azula is Azula, Katara is Katara. They act as they should ... in a game where everyone is a sex crazed maniac, ofc.
Why is this game good?
Quality! Character writing! Witt! Funny dialog! Witty dialog! Consistency!
I'm not one for story games, I like games that are 75% porn. This game is still high on the porn % but I play it for the story and the characters. There aren't many games I can say the same for, at most, I play other games for the setting, but not the actual story. This is just that good!
Also it gets meaningful updates all the time. It is alive and it is thriving. I support the guys on Patreon because they are wroth the money (IMHO, YMMV).
Downsides
It is obvious the devs don't have their origins in software (or if they do, they suck). Also they are doing things that maybe ren'py isn't great at. I don't know, point is the game runs a bit badly and the minigames are trash. They are rare and ... not so intrusive. I don't particularly mind them, but I don't like them.
Games like this kinda have to have busywork. The whole point of trainers is "breaking someone over time" and it seems that you just have to have mechanics with the object of your desire and time without her / it. Thus money grinding, or stat grinding. It's not painful, but it's not fun.
Overall, it's not overly intrusive or overly tedious, but it is there. Game also sometimes runs badly, 8.1 (version at this point) especially.
Conclusion
Play it. Just do it. Don't like book 1? Try 2/3/4. They are all different, and while book 1 is the simplest and narrowest scope, it's still good.
