Demo 3/20/21
Because the developer literally responded to my review and made game changes, I wanted to update my review rather than delete it (was a 1). It shows how important play testing is, and how just a little tweaking can turn a miss back into a good game. By just ratcheting down the difficulty level a bit, it changes the dynamic a great deal.
I still suggest losing only the current progress rather than resetting. to the beginning. Nobody want to repeat themselves. If you are going to force people to replay, it's up to you to make those replays worthwhile. Also, you might want to allow the user to progress on just the puzzles, and skip the hentai.
I guess I now have to keep an eye on this one
Original Review:
Even for free, this is a waste of download. Minigame might as well be a random generator looking for a needle in a haystack. More frustrating than challenging, and definitely not relaxing in the spirit of a casual game. Much better ways of getting a twitch fix.
Game consists of two parts: A puzzle game to unlock the tame drawing and a targeting game to strip her in multiple steps.
Puzzle game is interesting enough. It's not just a mindless mix-and-match, but some creative use of lines to require a little attention to the puzzling. It is forgiving enough that I didn't see any penalty for just clicking around.
The targeting minigame on the other hand...
Initially, I thought it was interesting and added a little pep to the typically casual fare. From a fixed point on the screen, you have to target a moving disc that resizes and spins. When you hit it with an arrow, that arrow now becomes an obstacle to the target. Fair enough. Until a couple levels later when the target is wildly darting around the screen becoming very difficult to hit without hitting a previous arrow. It becomes unrelaxing when you realize how unforgiving it is as well. Not only do you have to progress through three stages, but if you fail a stage, you have to go back to the beginning. And it only takes a few misses to blow a stage. Even worse, don't place the arrows in the right place, and you've made the target nearly unbeatable. With no mechanic for recovery.
Want to skip the targeting game and the hentai and just play the puzzles? Nope. Can't unlock the next girl without beating the stupid target game.
Way easy to fail + failure has steep penalty = no fun. Uninstalled.
