RPGM - God's Blessing on This Cursed Ring! [v0.8.7] [XXXcodedXXX]

That's some criminally low rating! For what it is - it is an amazing Konosuba parody, with unique ideas for events. A lot of great animations, and i'm not talking only about hentai scenes, game utilizes animations quite well even without it. Writing made me enjoy the game a lot, too, i even treated the game as if it's Konosuba story, instead of some hentai game to fap on.

The usual complaints from people are Kazuma not being Kazuma, difficulties with understanding what to do, NTR guy not fitting in, and map design being garbage... and only two of those are a real problem. Kazuma being completely different is an intentional design, after all. He also gets a lot closer to acting like Kazuma later.

Battles are fine, maps are moderate. Kazuma is supposed to be cunning, and it seems it's expected of you too. For example - you should absolutely utilize Aqua to annihilate mobs and get yourself to a high level. Unless you use Aqua for that, mobs will delete you, or it will simply take an eternity or two. At some point battles will be solved automatically, as long as Kazuma's health is high enough, and it drains about 15% each autobattle. Battles also might seem like a non-issue in the plains, but second location has WAY too many cramped enemies, so getting your level high with Aqua is unavoidable. Bosses are funny too, you have to solve them, it's never a default RPG maker boss fight.

Now about confusion, i personally see no problem here, as it's needed for NTR. The dark rooms are RNG with what companion you'll get, and it's for a good reason - if you could get all of them consistently, you would have zero reason to extend your time to the 30 days limit. After all, they're all gimmicky, useful to solve situations, and if you get, say we, Megumin first, to blow up the boss, Aqua second, to level up, then gather the stuff alone easily, and then Aqua and Darkness to destroy the cave, you'll end the first chapter way too early. You HAVE a way to solve this and get them all when needed, but not right away. You'll also miss some scenes with heroines if you go too fast. Don't panic, take your time. For me i ended the chapter on day 8, and black guy only got a titjob from a side character.

From what i've seen, hentai is good, but... you wouldn't really see a lot in the first chapter, if you're playing the game right. Though i would say hentai games are more than just a fapping tool - it's games with perverse atmosphere, a certain lean you wouldn't get from normal games, so it still works as one.

NTR guy feels as if a default rpg maker NTR villain invaded Konosuba, got isekai-ed into it, if you will, and Konosuba cast plays against him. Nothing more, nothing less, a no-name buff black guy that exists as a meta-entity of netorare. Felt good to have them win over a universal evil like that.


That dark Labyrinth is way too torturous though. For making me navigate it i would've dropped rating from 5 to 4. Like, wtf man...

I like the effort the developer is putting into this game. Especially seeing the progression of improving elements of the game play and CG.

I'm excited for when the NTR path is finished and for the development of the other path later.

I must admit... I like darkness more because of how roughed up she gets... very hot. <XD

It's a god awful game with some nice scenes and animations done in koi. I keep downloading it to watch the new scenes, which are just mpgs i a folder because the one time i tried to play it was just confusing. It's buggy, hard to know what to do, basically a laundry list of how not to make a game. On the porn side it's good NTR with alright pacing which is always important for a good porn game. Like seriously just delete the world map or something.

You can tell love when into coming up with some of the mechanics and that the creator really did their best to make each of the character's quirks into part of the gameplay.

Conceptually the game is fantastic. I also think the H-scenes are good.

But in terms of execution the game is AWFUL.

It gives no guidance to the player, maps are unnecessarily large, maps are unnecessarily unintuitive and difficult to navigate, on top of being PACKED with random mobs that pose no threat at all and can be one shot (one at a time) but which are hard to skip and for which you have to watch multiple slow animations to beat, and objectives are hidden in random corners of these maps (which is all the worst since the game fails to properly communicate to the player what they are even looking for).

The main NTR guy literally has no text and is completely un-interactable outside of scenes.

The mini-game which dictates which girls gets to join Kazuma for the day and which girls are prone to being corrupted doesn't feel particularly good (it's not bad either) but is totally divorced from the gameplay and has no real explanation.

All in all, the game feels really sluggish and slow to play and is utterly unenjoyable to make progress on. For map two, if the DEV wanted to keep the gimmick with Aqua and the undead...just make it so you can't explore the cave with Aqua because of the undead swarming in. The cave is awful enough as is.
A lot of awfulness in this game could easily be fixed with better map design allowing the player to skip the hordes of meaningless mobs. Similarly, better map design would make objectives and navigating the map easier. Game would be 3 to 4 stars then.
And while I think the concepts and the implementations of the character's quirks and personalities are creative and really well done; one can't help but feel the NTR/Corruption could have been designed in a way that actually interacts with the game. If this was done the game would be 4 to 5 stars.

For example: NTR guy could notice Darkness is a masochist if she is in your party and you use her taunt a lot, similarly for Megumin he could notice her vulnerability after she uses explosion, etc.
If the gameplay actually required use of the team mates and was focused more on difficult mobs rather than being a slug fest through meaningless mobs it would be more fun and one can easily imagine a way to intertwine the actual adventure with the NTR.
The current mini-game as I mentioned is neither bad nor satisfying but is totally divorced from the gameplay and has no real explanation.

I found this game to be way better than those other parodies i like this one that about all i can say i simply like this one. But i kinda wish you could have the choice to share the girls while kazuma is there.

Played for around 4 hours, I was grinding for what seemed forever to get to some promising content but was left disappointed.

Pros:

• the models of the girls are very nice
• the few animations are done well in my opinion

Cons:

• The finding the girls to join your party "minigame" was enough to piss me off. Most of the screen is black and the area you have to find them in is large and they always change spots so it's all RNG if you can get more than one of them to join before the timer runs out. You need your team as soon as you hit the second or third quest meaning you need to pray RNG is on your side.
  
  
• Since your team's skills are limited ie, Darkness can only take hits and not actually hit anything, Megumin only being useful for explosion when allowed, Aqua being a good support, the quests need to be balanced around this but they're not, especially when there's a chance you could be only going on quests with one or two girls harking back to the issue with the minigame and not having a full party ever.
  
  
• The maps are too large, awfully designed, and filled with too many enemies that it creates a negative experience. Battling becomes an unintentional grind due to how many monsters there are and even if I tried to avoid them, I couldn't avoid them all the time. This is made worse in the quest in the cave where I needed to have Darkness soak up damage while I spent several minutes doing the actual battle and did get lost after getting swept by the water and took forever trying to find my way forward.
  
  
• The writing needs some serious work. Kazuma even if he has amnesia doesn't act like the same person. The NTR man is some random black dude named John that has no explanation on who he is, just shows up, doesn't interact in any way other than just to have scenes with the girls.

tl:dr the battle system isn't fun, the "minigame" isn't fun, I felt I wasted my time, but hey at least the girls are hot

Played for about 2-3 hours, liked everything except the Cave's and the repetative "adventuring".

NTR scenes are solid, and it has my favorite genre of NTR: hidden ntr, where you dont see it happening (if you dont peek)!

A way for me to interact with the girls outside of the "night events" would be nice, like just hanging in the bar before bed. So instead of a cycle of day (1) and night (2) a cycle of day -> evening -> night would be prefered!

I think I'm somewhat biased towards this genre of game and kinks, but I honestly found it quite enjoyable with my main complaint being the simple lack of content thus far. There's one or two minor spelling errors I caught but I found the game enjoyable enough that I didn't really notice the few issues that were there until I went back. The dating minigames did confuse me the first few times I played them but that might just be my experience. One thing it might also benefit from is an option to make the party members chosen instead of a randomized minigame, since I feel many might not like having an option. I found it good to mix up the characters and it does force you to balance them as well. Idk it might be nice for others to add some more control to the story (although the cheat options do alleviate this).

This could be a decent NTR game, but it is ruined by obscure, grindy, poorly explained mechanics.

Given so much of the game is its mini games and unbalanced, boring combat, there's very little to salvage outside the scenes themselves (which are actually pretty good if stereotypical BBC stuff)

It's a shame that the game part is just so bad. You basically have no idea what you are doing, NTR will progress regardless of anything you do and you'll have a game over. That's it.

Probably my favorite NTR game on the site right now. I enjoy the finding teammates minigame its short enough to not be annoying and the fact that progressing in the missions gives you items that makes it easier gives a nice satisfaction that you are accomplishing your goal in having the girls not get NTR'd.

The battle system is limited, since this game has to accommodate for established characters like the Konosuba gang; and their jokey nature makes half of them useless (megu, and darkness not being useful in most fights) really only Aqua and Kazuma are can do damage. The author has done well in trying to make some interesting fights. with ghosts that take less damage but Aquas turn undead can make quick work of them. Overall not that hard once you know which abilities to use like with Kazuma you might as well just keep it on his snipe skill since it does way better damage then his attack with no downsides.

John is the main NTR antagonist in the game, sadly I think he is on the weaker side of the game. Mainly because he just seems boring he comes up out of nowhere is able to crash at the mansion with the gang and just sort of sits there. Overtime he will NTR the girls by visiting them in their rooms and thats pretty much it! He doesnt go out with you and the girls when your on a mission or sabotage you or anything just a sort of a passive antagonist. The sex scenes with him are good but overall leaves something to be desired.

Sylvia is a secondary antagonist just realeses as I'm writing this. Right now she seems to be in a what if story not really centered around the main story hard to tell where the author is going with this; something has brought her back from the dead and seems to have made her "excited" at revenge against Kazuma and co if you catch my drift. She's a lot more aggressive than John and if you're not off put by her futa nature, or how fast the NTR can happen with her I think fans of NTR will really enjoy her conquest of the Konosuba gang. As for fans of Kazuma not getting NTR'd, I'd advise not touching the red crystal once you finish the missions and kick John out of the mansion.

Good netorare game. The major flaw of the game is that you're not controlling the one doing the netorare, John (I wish we could rename him) but the cuck. So there's a whole waste of time and resources spend on Kazuma's perspective that would be better invested for the one stealing the girls. Good thing is that you can skip the whole gameplay and directly unlock all the scenes by talking to the hooded guy. Still, as I said ressources could have been spent elsewhere.

So good game, unless you're an insecure "adult" still thinking he is a piece of drawing (Kazuma). In that case, you're better off going back to your virtual world. Otherwise, you could suffer a trauma, feel emotionally triggered and write a review whining about netorare in a netorare game.

I write this review as NTR lovers. So take it as a grain of salt.
Pros:
- It's a parody of a really famous anime.
- Not a yes/no game. [Yes = vanila, No = NTR. You can pick who gets stolen and who doesn't (but it's difficult)].
- The H-scenes are kinda hot. The girls are hot too. It's even animated!

Cons:
- The [Mini games]. As practically every reviewer has stated. It's more of a chore than anything else. This is what kept me from continuing to play.
- The map is rather big and empty. In fact, they are way too big, unnecessary big, if you know what I mean.
- Typical NTR game. The bull is a BBC while the MC has a teeny-weeny dick.

If the developer can fix at least two of those flaws, I'm confident the game will be fantastic!!!

So yeah, 3 plus and 3 negatives. It's average.

In all honesty, if you could actually avoid the ntr the game would be pretty good. A small problem at least i had was hitting the small green square during kazuma sex scenes to make it so you could actually continue them The line goes way too fast to actually hit it consistently. If you actually just wanted to make an ntr just say that. Also ridiculous penis sizes

In the hentai game, difficult and long battles or mini games are not that important. Even more so if it is unreasonable. In most cases, a simple one is better.
Let players who want to avoid NTR make choices and resource investments instead of wasting time. Like a simplified strategy simulation game. An unfair match can be a good seasoning in the NTR genre, but a soup with only pepper is not a good soup.

The "mini game" to find characters is killing the game for me. Like, really.
It's not a mini game, you have 0 control over it.
Basically you need to find the girls in a big space area separated into different rooms, and you have a 1mn timer. And 80% of your screen is black.

It's just RNG and if the girls are in the first 4 rooms, you'll likely get them. If not, you'll never see them in your team, ever.

And there are at least 10 rooms, and they're huge. I don't understand how you could create something like that and think "the player will have fun".

I'll change the review if this get changed, but otherwise, there're just so much better RPGMaker game out there... Especially with NTR.

At the moment, exactly two overlapping EVERYTHING else problems.
First. passive increase in the parameter of corruption of characters by John. That is, not a competition, John will fuck everyone, because it is impossible to influence (slow down, stop, reduce) the growth of corruption (or I did not find it).
Second. Dude, seriously? My finger is bigger than the protagonist's dick .
IMHO: if you like to play for a cockless (literally) cuckold - go ahead, there are no special complaints about the technical part. To each his own, but it's much easier to just view all the scenes separately and not suffer from a useless grind.


Edited: Otherwise agree with desmosome's review, via the post below.

As a scene viewer i guess it's alright. The lack of showing penetration always annoys me in 3D games. like let me move the camera dude. Wait, it's made in RPGM, maybe if he ported it to unreal engine and let us play it would be a bomb ass game, as is i always cheat to see the new scenes cause five minutes of the gameplay is enough for me.

[v0.7]

This game is aggravating. It's incredibly tedious. It's almost insulting. And I'm saying this as a fan of NTR.

Let's talk about the gameplay. The "find the girls" routine you gotta do every time you want them to join your party is pretty tedious, but I am mostly fine with game mechanics that drive the NTR. I am not going out of my way to avoid NTR, so some system that makes it feel somewhat natural that they are spending time with the antagonist is fine.

But this means you should be essentially balancing the game around having less than a full party. It seemed like that was the case on the first quest. You could even finish it solo without much difficulty or tedium.

As soon as you get to the second quest in the caves area, you will quickly realize that no, this game is not designed by a sensible person. The map is jam packed with monsters. You need to revisit the same areas a billion times because the whole place is a maze, with the central connecting hub being a darkened area where you can only see a few tiles around you. And guess what? Every time you re-enter an area, all the monster respawn.

To add insult to injury, the battle system is actually just a joke. More specifically, the character stats and skillsets are narrative tools. If you bring the full party, you actually cannot die. The tanker can soak up all the damage, the MC can one shot a mob each turn, the blue girl has infinite mana to heal, and the mage can one shot bosses if she is enabled by the plot to use her one spell (she is otherwise useless). So the entire thing is not based on a challenge of limited resources, interesting combat mechanics, or even levels/equipment, but it's entirely just a tedious process where you basically have no chance of losing but have to fight through a horde of monsters as you go back and fourth through mazes. I am talking about hundreds of battles in a single dungeon.

I mean, honestly, if the characters' skills are narrative tools, don't throw a bazillion battles our way. Make sensible dungeons that focus more of puzzles that utilize their peculiarities.

It's absolute bullshit, and I eventually used a save editor to give the blue girl 999 AGI and MATK to one shot everything with AOE. Because, why not? It's not like I had a chance of losing a battle anyways. Even with that, it was aggressively tedious and time consuming. All for what? I asked myself that.

Forgive me if I got it wrong (I only saw up to the first main NTR event for the girls), but it seems like the vast majority of hentai scenes are not even tied to anything going on in the main story adventure. Some black dude stays in your mansion after the prologue, for reasons that are not explained. We have no idea who this fucker is. He has absolutely nothing to say outside of his own scenes. You see his sprite in the living room, but you can't talk to him. You can't bring this guy to missions. He will do stuff at night to raise the NTR stats for the girls, and at some thresholds, there will be an NTR event.

If the idea was to balance the time pressure of the black guy raising his NTR stats against the tedium of "beating the game," well it doesn't quite work out the way the dev might be expecting. NTR fans can just continuously sleep to progress the NTR (I could be wrong if later stages of NTR requires certain story elements), and the players trying to avoid the NTR will have the world's soggiest dogshit experience.

Granted, some parts of the review was based on some assumptions about the porn distribution mechanics, but even disregarding that, I can't in good conscious recommend anyone to actually play this.

NTR fans might be interested in viewing the gallery because the scenes themselves are pretty hot and the girls seem to reflect their canon personalities (as far as I can tell as someone who didn't watch the anime). And I don't say that very often. I generally scoff at people asking for full saves and gallery unlocks, because what's the point of viewing scenes with no context?

If asked how I would fix this. The easiest band-aid fix that changes the least amount of mechanics would be to get rid of respawning enemies. Kill them once, and they should be gone.

Edit:
Oh, I forgot to mention the UI issues, where the cursor is too sensitive and move across multiple menu choices when you press down once. "Back to title screen" (which doesn't have a confirmation prompt) is right under the save button, so you see how that could be annoying.

This game is literally designed to waste your time. There isn't much good content and the overall mechanics flat out suck. The story is pretty much non-existent and consists of a bunch of incoherent scenarios that are simply strung together.

Not sure what they were going for with this one but it is neither enjoyable nor arousing.

Hide and Seek Simulator

Yea, the whole running around dark room to find companions to go on missions and only have 60 sec time limit is dumb asf. Especially when your vision is very limited. There are multiple rooms and the aid items don't do much, especially when there is no way to purchase them(hope you find them in a dungeon.)

The MC isn't great by himself. You mostly will need Darkness to tank for you and she is usually a must/core party member. But, we go back to Hide and Seek simulator. You either
A. Have to sleep in and wait to find the party members if you missed them.
B. Have to reload your former save before seeking them out.
C. Pucker up and just go outside with whatever party(sometimes by yourself.)

To be honest. This is fucking retarded. The time limit kills it with the many rooms and you can't see shit. So something has to give here. Either make the search not so big or up the time limit or make it where you can buy support items for searching instead of looking for them in a dungeon.
