VN - Ren'Py - Innocent Witches [v0.11 Alpha] [Sad Crab]

Fantastic game with top tier art and writing. Top scores from me.

Adult games tend to be good in different ways but rarely excel in all areas. The writing might be dogshit but the art great, or the other way around, making the game enjoyable overall. But a few games have great writing, flawless art, great setting and sexy scenes. Off the top of my head the only ones that check all those boxes are What A Legend and this game right here.

It's a slow burn with great atmosphere and fantastic buildup. You spend your time getting to know the main four girls, who all have nicely defined personalities and actually feel like real people (the highest possible praise to an adult game, lol).

That said, the game is too verbose for me at times - many, many times you need to consult teachers about this or that, and I find myself clicking past that sometimes. I found this especially true in the old path.

I've been following IW development for a while now. The art style, which had caught my eye from the very beginning, is getting even better in latest releases. Some may say, that game lacks in adult part, and I would agree, for now there is only one sex scene with main girl in story and some with side characters, but the story is getting to hot scenes now, so I am not seeing this as a problem. I will highly recommend IW to anyone who appreciates beautiful artwork and Harry Potter franchise.

A loooooot of text and very boooooooring. You have to do too much and read the equivalent of a harry potter book for any simple sex scene. The only good thing is that they did a good job with the character drawings

Hmmmm.. I'm not sure where to start. I love the music, it just so fit the Hogwart and its background. Accept the part where it made me almost give up the game because i thought there will be impossible to see H scene considering the longer dialogs and fewer restrictions in the school. But i know.. i know..
There is a phrase called 'No pain no gain' right? but still.... i mean it's brutal. So brutal. -_-

One of the disadvantages is to wait a long time for releases, but for such a quality of drawing, I am ready to wait longer

The idea is cool. I'm waiting for the continuation. There would be more sex scenes. Especially with Hermione and Luna. And realize already the scene from Marcus' fantasies with the elders.

Ah yes, one of many many Magical School games. There are few nice scenes but i found most of them pretty average and boring. However if someone is harry potter fan im sure he would love this one.
Art 3/5
Story 3/5
Gameplay 3/5
Fapability 2.5/5
Originality 2/5

Lots of potential and a fun art style, but this alpha release is nothing but a time waster. Unless you love all teh dull reading and excessive adminstraion that comes with running a school, with none of the fun naughtiness.

I played both the old and the new plot. I must say that it is one of the best harry potter parodies that I have been able to play so far, in terms of history, artistic design, animation, etc. However, everything good has its bad side, I found many things that I did not find satisfactory.

Right now the biggest problem I faced was the plot issue.

I liked the old argument a lot, because you get exquisite things little by little, that is, there is a previous reason that gives you a result. That is to say, here you could see the development of how he came to flirt with the girls until he got what he wanted by going through a lot of quests. This version has a lot of "Erotic" content, that is, it does not go beyond the sexual to the amount of content it contains. The bad point here is that I understand that they are not going to continue this old plot, so as far as there is, it is as far as it is played.

Regarding the new plot, it has several different parts compared to its plot, but it can be evidenced in a more fluid way of how the story developed compared to its predecessor. The problem here is the second chapter, it turns out and happens that the first chapter is incomplete, this is because they are implementing the previous plot to this new version, because the previous plot has good material, it argues. The problem is when you pass the chapter, as it is incomplete, they give you a quick summary of the most important thing that happened, when you get to the second chapter, you realize that despite the summary, you still do not understand many things in the plot, and the The way the characters talk to you is very different from the first chapter, I mean it's like from one moment to another someone hates you and when they turn they love you out of nowhere, it's a bit confusing.
Of course I understand that they are migrating things from the previous plot to the new one, but I would have preferred that they had at least finished the entire first arc and then moved on to the second, I don't see the logic of going from an incomplete arc to a new arc.

From the rest of things, it seems to me an excellent game, its graphics, its music, its erotic and sexual content. Some may think there is a lot of text and little s3x, but the argument is so good that you enjoy what little content of sex has, because it does make sense. It's not just, arc 1 chapter 1, s3xo for no reason. This game gives meaning to those scenes and that was what I liked the most.

Summary:

Character Design/Visual: 5/5
Background music/sound: 4.5/5 (there are no moans)
Plot: 5/5 (despite the combination of new and old plot, it is well written)
Map: 5/5
Animation: 5/5 (Of the few animations that there are, they are well done.)
+18 Scenes: 3/5 (There is more erotic content than sexual intercourse content)
Gameplay: 5/5 (It is a clicker game, it has several fun mini-games and different quests.)
Interface: 5/5

The worst feature it can have, in my opinion:

The fact that they wanted to improve the plot does not seem bad to me, the idea of wanting to make a new plot based on the previous one and improve it seems excellent to me. However, the worst I could see is that arc 1 is not finished and they still moved on to arc 2... I see no point in this, they could have just finished the first one and continued with the second. There are some events that interfere with the main story, that is, I see that there are many events in arc 2 that are activated simultaneously, it does not follow something linear.

As a conclusion, I would have preferred to wait longer, present a new game ONLY with the new plot and that the arcs were finished successively. The fact that there are 2 things at the same time, it really seems ugly to me. But this does not mean that the game has an excellent plot and good graphics.

In my conclusion I would wait until they have completely migrated to the new plot, that the first arc is finished and that they make some improvements in the second arc so that all the events are not activated at the same time.

This game is very good, wait for updates when they have everything under control.



4/5

The art style is there. There's a ton of story. The gameplay elements are all there for a VN. The real issue is there's only a few sex scenes in a game littered with foreplay and teasing. The more time you invest, the less sex you get. I don't really understand the structure of it, and it's not for me until that changes.

The drawings are intricate, especially the backgrounds. Clearly a lot of time and care from a skilled artist went into them. If it weren't an H-game they'd be great.

Unfortunately, it is an H-game, and for this the artist fails in one unforgiveable way: the scenes aren't even slightly erotic. The expressions, poses, figures, and animations are all uncanny and stilted. When I look at these girls, they look and feel like marionettes. Cardboard cutouts. There's no complexity of emotions, no sense of foreplay, no connection between art and character. Just girls doing a frozen O-face while they bob up and down on a dick.

That so much skill and effort went into creating something so lifeless is... sad.

And the writing does nothing to salvage this.

I'm like 3 hours in. Barely any NSFW so far, but goddamn.
I was not expecting to click the "more detailed lore" button multiple times in a row.

The incredible aesthetics combined with the atmosphere just sucked me (heh) in entirely to the point I don't even care about the porn anymore.

Maybe it'll turn terrible at some point, but so far, great job.

Shame this only has 3 stars. A very good trainer game. The Witch Trainer that we deserve and actually has care put into it. Also a great point and click game. While it can be a little grindy, once you know what you're supposed to do it's a breeze.

The graphics are really great, and the game is free, what more can you ask?
Well, so much dialog, right from the start... And it's pretty bland... I defy anyone not to skip through them, hoping to see an actual game...

The artwork is very good, except for Hermione's boobs, which look too round and unnatural. Also too many repetative tasks where you esentially have to replay a single scene 3-4 times to get a very small reward, which makes the game too slow and anoying.

The story is interesting and the selection of characters is very good. The gameplay is simple and easy to follow.

I am writing this on version 0.9b. Very good game.
We can hope for more content but the quality is there. It's worth it and if you don't want to waste time, you can take a save and finish the game quickly which unlocks all the scenes.
In my opinion, they have made one of the best scene ever (end of prologue). Without it, this game is 4 star but that was dope and i'm giving 5 stars as a way to say thanks.

Do yourself a favour and add a .txt file to the folder with the ,exe titled "arania exumai" and it will unlock the gallery. Don't bother wasting hours upon hours getting no where and never seeing anything sexual basically.

But, probably the best art of any game out there, with great animations as well. The 3 stars are for that.

The actual game is horrible, time wasting activities, bad dialogue (probably translation issues from russian), it's too bad because the art is amazing.

Really good game, amazing arts and animations, fun mini games and the website with the walktrough makes the difference. Did like the story and some characters, maybe adding more famous HP characters to interact will make it even better. Played v0.9 beta and didnt find any bug or major problem.

Good game, but I don't know why you can only pick one "Waifu" for you, when you can do H-Scenes with each of them.

I've played the old plot, and I think I'm 80% through of the content of the old one, I didn't try the new plot, so IDK if the main character will be changed to be a shithead, or something else.

Also you guys are enjoying the game for free, and then whine about it lmao

If you're here for a quick wank go to other games, or use cheats.

I've loved this game ever since I first played it.
The art style is definitely 5 stars easly.
I rate it 4 stars only cuz of the quite annoying even system where a lot of days are just skipped with no content.

It is true that the beginning is very, very long (especially for a non-English speaker) but the rest, the updates, the sublime art as well as the very well chosen soundtracks make this game one of my most beautiful gaming memories. I'll come back to it the day it's complete. Bravo!
