RPGM - Completed - Gehenna [Full Version] [Kemuriya]

I really wanted to enjoy this game more than I did. A game about an angel becoming more corrupted and transformed by a variety of enemies and encounters sounds right up my alley. Unfortuantely, Gehenna seems less interested in being a game about corruption and more a game about stuffing as much grotesque sex in as possible.

It's all too much. The artsyle starts off well enough but things take a turn once you start encountering h-scenes. It's extremely rare that you get a straightforward sex scene here. When characters aren't ejaculating like fire hoses they tend to be drawn with modifications that are extremely jarring, once example is a CG with hulking clowns that have women inside of their skin? And the very start of the game features women acting like literal pigs? It's kind of disgusting, excessive, and even worse, really hard to make out. There are so many pieces filled with so many loud colours and textures that any semblance of eroticism fades away so the only thing you can get a clear reading on are the people blunting and loudly talking about how the sex is making them feel good, like how good their dick feels when somebody's rubbing it, or how good their dick feels when they're putting it inside the anus of another person or how good their dick makes them feel when yadaddadadadada.

What's really unfortunate is that there are genuinely good pieces amidst the deluge of bloated anatomy and grease explosions. The sequence with Mersbell where they possess your body to be reborn as the God of Wriggles was a really interesting concept. I really didn't care for Helvetica's body inexplicably turning into garish green slime and found the subsequent personality excretion and usage of the personality as a sex toy for personality death to be corny and over-the-top, like most things in this game. However, the final transformation was quite the good design (minus the meatily textured double dicks), it uses the green palette and morphs it into a very atypical, but very creative corrupted transformation, a woman in black and green stripes with runes on her forehead, calmly smoking from a pipe. A very welcome stripped back (enough) design.

There are also CG's where your player character transforms into either a vampire or a demon, but even though they're just recycled CGs of your character from the torso up with changing appearances with no sexual content. They're amongst my favorite ones because tasteful decline into a corrupted, sexy monster is a more exciting experience over CGs where you turn into a gasoline-sheen colored, braindead sack of meat that blasts cum everywhere.

This game is extremely hit-or-miss for me, if you think you're the type of person who can stomach an artstyle that gets as lurid as this one, try playing it for an hour and see for yourself and if it's worth lugging through a clunky UI with mediocre fighting.

This is one of the most fun game made in RPGM that I played in a while, the characters have various interactions and you can modify a lot of equipment, I love how you can change the look of Helvetica and you can unlock new abilities by progressing the H-scenes. Also the NG+ mechanic lets you keep the Keys, all other equipment, and even the members of the party so you can explore the world by taking shortcuts that were locked in the first playthrough and unlock the scenes that were previously locked or that you missed.

The most well worked part of this game is the transformation. It has quite the large library of forms you can choose from based on your kinks and desires. So much effort was put into transformations, that everything else feels shallow in comparison. With the exception of the story.

The story i think is almost good enough to carry the game by itself, almost. The main problem is that the story is hidden under piles and piles of grind and gameplay of middling quality. The gameplay itself is just tedious, more of a chore to get through to see the good parts of the game, whether they be the story, the transformations and sexual scenes. On a more mixed note, the art is just weird. I cant quite put it into words but it doesnt feel that good to me. A shame, considering the sexual scenes were made well with a good amount of variety.

Overall this game jumps between extremities of quality, either being bad or good and almost never in between. A nauseating mix.

Rating it compared to other rpgm games Gehenna is a diamond in the rough.
A wealth of content in between the craziest progression you can have with this engine.
If you are here for a quick fap that's not it, this game has enough content for 50+h with multiple routes scenes and endings with deep customization of the main character and absolutely stupid (in a good way) scaling and combat.

Now the game has its shortcoming, the grind is present but imo average for a rpgm game, no the passing of this game is deranged, you have 3 main routes you can follow simultaneously with locked doors, shortcuts, fast travel and everything and it gets so confusing it can really be frustrating.

HOWEVER
still 5 stars from me simply because the game allows you to customize your experience from no random battle, to instant win, to unlock everything from items to H scenes, everything is available if you don't have the patience to play through this massive game.
Truly this is an example of what can be done when you actually care about the people playing your game, not something you usually see with games of this engine.

It's one of the few rpgm where i didn't feel the need to use a save editor to bypass the grind.
While not as rich mechanically, i'm putting it up there with the likes of Karynn's prison as one of those too rare deep and interesting rpgm games.

(Check the tags beforehand you idiot)

Game felt weird at some points, the art is a very specific style that i sometimes put me off, if this is your kind of thing go for it, the statuses were pretty good, but the execution of this game isnt the best

The sheer amount of outfits and statuses are Fantastic and obviously not all of them are going to hit, but the ability to change what she's affected by really elevates this game. you could have her stick to one fetish the entire game.

One of the best game I played in 2024.

I finished all the ending, near 60 hours to do.


Warning, the H-scene are perfect if you like : Hard femdom, hard corruption, rape, mind control, body control... And some grotesque scenes but they are little. You will find near 90% of the scenes are femdom on female, with near 100% are futanari. I hope you like dick girl on girl.

Translation perfect for a french. English is not my mother tong so I can't be very sure about that.

Gameplay a bit grindy if you don't read and don't understand what to do. First, you will find the gameplay absurd : "wtf lvl 9999 ??!" "why you gain skill by being fucked??" ... But it is finally good. The fights are goods, and the gameplay is consistent with the story.

The story is really fine. I came for the hentai, i stayed for the story and the characters.

Have fun guys, it is a solid 5 stars. (if you are into this kinks)

Amazing game with tons of things to discover.

Scenes are all great and hit a lot of kinks, character dressing and customisation are plenty and don't impact gameplay much, so you get to dress your characters as you feel like. some costumes or personnalities allows to see h-event when moving across fields, which either buffs your characters or unlock other customization equipment.
If you get tired of being interupted by those field events, there's options to deactivate almost everything at anytime, so it shouldn't ever get in the way of gameplay.

The balance seems off at first, you feel too strong, then too weak, but when you get into it and try to go for the harder endings it forces you to think and play well with all the tools at your disposal. It really gives the feeling of going from a scrub to beating up gods above gods. You get a lot of freedom as well so you can rush up entire zones by beating optionnal bosses if you're too strong for a zone (but risk skipping some story in doing so, I don't recommend it on first playthroughs. It's great when going for bad/best ends after finishing the full game once though)

Don't go looking too deep for ethics, the whole cast either loves or are indifferent to corruption, although they tend to prefer being on the giving end.

The story itself is well thought of and can give you the feels if you get invested enough.

There's a lot to love, and I'm sure I'm still missing on some secrets or endings even now. Definitely in the harder end of RPGM games if you play legit, but there's also a lot of options to allow for casual players to enjoy it. I recommend it.

Solid 3.5 game. Main focus of the game is on the Transformations from enemies, so it does comes out as shallow in macro level even if there is some overall corruption arc.

Biggest problem is that due to 20+ hrs gameplay focus is on different things and if you don't like them some of the fetishes it appear as kind of grindy.

This game is the hentai equivalent of dumpster tier memes with nothing but fart.wav (no extra reverb) and bruh.mp3 being spammed everytime somebody moves. It's practically the gooner's schizophrenia simulator. There is SO much happening at any given time, yet it's all absolutely nothing in reality. There is so much trash being thrown at you to try and fool your brain into thinking SOMETHING is happening, but it's not. It's nothing. This game is nothing. It's just a bunch of randomly selected, sometimes edited, but always recycled art being thrown violently at you. Sometimes, it's not even that. More often than not, it's just nothing at all.

You can immediately unlock the CG room, and this is the prime example. I did not do this until after playing for 2 hours and realizing that my time had been utterly wasted. """"Animations""" are 2 frames of something being repeated back and forth, and typically, it's not even actual sex. It's just two bodies sliding - literally sliding- across one another. It's actually wild how many of the animations are just two bodies squelching together as if sex were happening, but just isn't. Other times, it is a very basic thrust being looped. They unironically dedicate more frames for kissing than sex.

Not only are 90% of the assets reused from their other..."games", but the sex scenes are no different. If a character has an arc of 7 sex scenes, it's actually 3 with mild changes inbetween each. That's it. That's the game. You see 1 scene with a character, then you've seen them all.

This game has a foundation that is truly solid as a basis for a quality game, but absolutely misses the mark. H content in fights is random and entirely unrelated to what's happening. Mid-fight transformations are about as rare as the actual porn itself, which is far too spaced out for how awkwardly large this game is to navigate. There is so much space, yet it's filled with nothing. There are enemies, but they provide no real content, so why have them? This whole game is so strange. It COULD have amazing battle fuck with great sex scenes, but...it doesn't. The art is, at times, gorgeous. More often than not, it's above average, and that's great! Too bad you never get to see it outside of random battle cut ins.

This game is just such a wild mashup of everything wrong with the H game scene. It's just fake content that, according to the reviews, works to captivate people. It proves that if you pretend to have substance, you really can fake it till' you make it. Just reuse the exact same scene literally 7 times with incremental changes and BAM, that's good enough for your audience.

This game sucks. It's got so much content right there, yet uses almost none of it. So many gorgeous, hot, and alluring enemies, yet you get to bang precisely none of them. Sex scenes come in the form of giant purple stones you touch. Even characters BEGGING you to have sex with them just sell you things. Your own party begs to bone you, but you can do nothing with them. You can BEG a character to lewd you. They can't. They literally can't. But it's an option you can pick! Why?! Some side characters have more sex than the actual main character, but others have ONE sex CG reused without any change.

This doesn't respect you or your time. For that reason, it doesn't deserve your respect or time either.

Thought it was going to be good, it ended up being a waste of download time, No h combat (some enemies kinda transform you like change your hair colour or get u tanned etc) thats barely everything in the combat section, The game otherwise is a "a lot of text and little action", h scenes can be triggered while meeting very specific and very boring to farm conditions, the art is pretty decent, i like the customization options but thats everything i liked in this game.

This game is a solid game compared to the litany of VN that litter the site, the overall score is due to the great art and very solid amount of customization but that is a double edge sword and is pointless to pick the outfit for the first run, yes the FIRST run, later on you can have the options to lock in an outfit you like.

The biggest issue i have with this game is that the first parts of the 3 different paths are full of content but then it tappers off and more of just "get to the final boss", you can turn off enemies and traps if you get annoyed with the random encounters. the game expects you to switch between the 2 main routs at certain intervals and i wish it was not like that but it is not that major just takes time to get accustomed to.

Pros:
+ Great artwork and outfit customization
+ Adjustable difficulty
+ MANY OPTIONS TO TAILOR YOUR GAME
+ Cheats available right at the start (green crystal)

Cons:
- Navigation can be a pain
- convoluted paths and sometime requirements for some scenes
- the menu for clothing gets clogged quicky and its a chore to reequip clothing after some encounters
- very repetitive battles (use auto battle)
- VERY LONG (its a double edge sword while its good at the length it trails off in the later half)
- some areas just are dead ends...

i really enjoy the game but there are something that really are annoying but they can be overlooked 4/5

Hello! It's me, Illidan! I decided to make review on this hgame, because i thought that it might be interesting. It indeed was somehow interesting. But i wish i turned off my sound and skipped good half of scenes.... Anyway, i will rate this hgame by such categories : Translation, story, gameplay, hscenes

Let's start!
---------------------------

Translation 5/5 - Translation looks really fine as far as i saw. Well... There was like, only 1 or 2 mistakes. But it's ok

Story 3-4/5 - Very big leap from previous part. It's much easier to nagivate story, due to pointing signs(which still can confuse you) and story overally much longer. It's true for all three routes. Though... Wriggle route, somewhat same in terms how long it's as in previous game. But what i am talking about? Let's talk about story! It does look interesting, but Lolina story was the longest one and seems like devs put most of time on it. Same can't be said for dark brethen and wriggle routes. But i still have complaints, about how demon lord easily falls for hypnosis or other stuff. Same for other powerful guys, falling to curses of some nobodies. Like... Lolina have 15k lvls, yet get brainwashed with stupid easiness.

Gameplay 2/5 - It's... GRIND. You. Must. Grind. You grind a lot. Really a lot. I despite using cheats in later half of the route, completed it in 8 hours. Despite lvls being given very easy, like you lvl up each fight and even have these useless tents(at least after 1k lvl). But later, in Wriggle route, you will need to stack buffs before each fight. Cuz you don't have much weapon enchantments, which can really help you with beating game. Also you need to enchant 4 weapons, because last true boss, requires A LOT of stats on your characters and damage. Otherwise you won't make it. I recommend simply to cheat stats, lvls and etc. Just to not burn your nerves and time

ED: If you are fed up from Lolina moans, cuz of his scene at the start of location. Re enter location or simply mute hgame!

Hscenes 3-5/5 - Scenes and CGs looks much more clean than before, but there is still some issues sometimes, at least in my opinion, that you can't sometimes understand what is happening. There is still a lot of gross fetishes and even... GAY tag. Lolina is a femboy after all... And he got railed by a guy. I immediately turned off hgame and skipped scenes. You might say that it's just 2 scenes... But there is more! Though, they grew pussy on him.... I still skipped them. But overally, i think it's much easier to watch scenes than before. Also there is enemies during battles, which have CGs for their sexual attacks.

Considering how much effort there was put, into this hgame. I think hscenes category deserves 5 out of 5. But in my personal opinion, it's 3 out of 5.... Man... Why did i even deserve to see gay scene or other ones?

----------
Conclusion 3.5-4.5/5 - It's good hgame, as long as you can handle fetishes here and very long grind. All i can say... Use save editor and it will save you tons of time. So you can breeze through story and gather scenes

Kemuriya made het another great game, first off was EDEN and now Gehenna. The latter seems to take a lot of inspiration from the former in terms of fetishes, conjured from the depths of kinks.

The mechanics also similar to that of EDEN. Great game, lots of content and very refreshing compared to your average RPGM game. Very good pls buy and play

ive gotten like 5 hours into this game, but i dont think ill be finishing this any time soon...

if you know these developer's previous game, "Eden", it is quite similar. i won't lie, i could never get through that game just cause of how chaotic everything is, it was incredibly overwhelming even though i knew it was something i would have enjoyed. i feel like with this game, there is still a ton of chaos, but i think it is a lot more in order for me to enjoy this now (either that or maybe i've changed as a person... maybe i just had to turn off the brain a bit) i think the number one thing motivating me is the collectathon vibe with all the outfits and curses. unfortunately, there is really only the main character that you can customize as opposed to the 3 heroines from the Eden, but honestly that also helps add focus IMO

if you don't know the previous game, then you should know this game has a TON of outfit/character customization, and a whole lotta weird scenes that definitely do not appeal to the broad audience, but nothing grotesque like scat or gore. eventually you will need to let auto battle do its thing cause keeping track of all the skills is such a hassle...

the games progression is pretty strange, there are 3 routes of which you will probably be multitasking, its kind of open world like in that way. numbers inflate sooooooo high, but i think it makes progression feel more strategic and interesting.

THIS IS NOT A GAME FOR EVERYONE, but for the ones that is, its a really fun mess of an experience. theres also an everything unlock for those who just want a sandbox experience.
