VN - Ren'Py - Imperial Chronicles [v0.8] [Lazy Monkey]

As far as 0.2 goes I can say that this is a very good VN. Maybe should be 4.5 instead of 4, but there is a few things that worry me going forward(in terms of story), so I thought 4 stars would probably hold better. A few things:
- Better setting, characters and writing than LazyMonkey's previous game.
- The incest doesn't feel to out of place since MC is a "prince". With irl nobility marrying relatives and all. Besides, it is not based in pure lust.
- In terms of sexy scenes (I call it like that to include teasing), it is a bit of a downgrade. What I mean is the scenes are not as "hot", but still good.
- Good amount of content.
- A bit to grainy.

EDIT: As of 0.4, I have to say I am glad my worries have been squashed. The world building and writing has proved to be fantastic (as far as adult VNs go of course). A lot of devs will drop the ball after a promising initial set up, but Lazy Monkey hasn't. So I updated my rating to 5.
It is not the "hottest" game, but it is VERY entertaining.

So far so good. The renders are a bit grainy and at some points the story did not make a whole lot of cents but over all not a bad start. The plot is good and I like the magical / mystical aspect of it.

I played the previous game and liked the characters, but the story was too strange for me.
But here I already like the characters I've seen, I love fantasy and here the story seems really interesting!
This is just the beginning but I can't wait to find out what happens next!
I liked the changes at the beginning, but I hope there will only be small changes and not the impossibility of having certain people.

Anyway, I'd recommend it and wish the developer all the best!

0.1 review.

+Damn nice and very good a mount of content for an intro!
+Beautiful ladies. (Sona is my favorite.)
+Elf girls!
+Choices matter! And can drastically change who you meet and what you experience.
+Good, consistent art style.
+You don't have to wait for version 0.9 to get to the spicy scenes! You can score right from the start.

o English isn't perfect, but perfectly understandable.

Loved the first game by Lazy Monkey - and he seems to be off to a very nice start once again. Check this out if you like some fantasy and gorgeous girls.

A great start for a game for what is likely to be another successful project made by LazyMonkey. Even though it is just the prologue, it still has more content than you'd expect from a newly released title. The renders are while not the best, still look good to the eye. The writing feels childish at times, however it was not bad enough for it to bother me that much. The sex scenes are great and I hope to see the continuation of this game in the future. I believe LazyMonkey had done a great job with his former game Monkey Business, therefore I have fine belief that the creator will make another good title.
