VN - Ren'Py - Isekai Paradise [v0.4 Patreon] [Soultice]

This game had good graphics and cute characters but a very cliche and basic story. I didn't mind it. It was a simple sex focused power fantasy game and it didn't pretend to be anything else. It would never be a 5 star for me but it could be a comfortable 3 or even a 4 depending on how it was executed in the future.

However, the dev started paywalling scenes and separating entirely different versions of the game for patreons. This is not only a terrible practice but also kills any reason for a non-patreon to even try this game since the sex scenes were the main thing this game had going for it. I don't think anyone will play this just for the story.

Taking that into account, since I can't review a patreon version I don't have I can only review the paywalled version and have no choice but to give this game one star.

The game has a lot of promise in that the art is pretty good and the sex scenes are decent.
Where it fails is the writing. To call it typical Isekai trash would be a disservice to actual Isekai trash.
Hopefully the writing will one day reach the level of trash so we get a more compelling story.
Also and this is a personal peeve if the MC looked any more feminine then this game would warrant a futa tag.
Despite all that I was enjoying this game well enough as a "junk food" VN but this game absolutely deserves to be panned now IMO.
The dev was already paywalling sex scenes with MAIN characters which was irksome enough but we could get around it.
Now with 0.4 there are 2 scenes with Lirael the main elf waifu that are paywall only. That's all of her scenes in the game except the very first one.
To be clear a main LI who currently has 4 scenes in total there are three of them locked behind the paywall.
The dev also removed the images from the scenes so URM is no longer a viable option to bypass this.
This is unacceptable and I will never support games with this kind of monetization.
This is so egregious that I cannot in good conscience recommend this game to anyone at this point.

The only good thing in this game are the renders, for what remain it's pretty bad. Writing is poor, charater development is close to inexistant and you end up skipping content to only watch H scenes.

Ifeel the 0.3 content is wqorse than 0.2 and the paywall for some scenes doesn't make it better.

The story moves way too fast and doesn't make much sense from any logical view, the power/skill levels of the MC and gang are badly done changing on a whim, first battle hes over powered, second under powered then back to overpowered again, trying to work within a corrupt system is stupid and then there is
The MC goes along with everything asked of him making him more like a prop than a person(MC finds a magic dildo and honestly that's also a good description of him), on top of being useless he also sounds useless saying stuff like i didn't plan on being a hero while doing only hero things or being troubled when assassins in the middle of kidnapping a person to be a sex slave get killed,

There are no choices in the game that change anything, all they do is skip scenes.

Most of the sex scenes are just a blank screen and the rest are shaky animations that make you feel sick just looking at them.

Not sure what the point of calling them "slaves" when employee would be a much more accurate term.

Premium scenes in a low tier unfinished game that has no guarantee of ever being finished, are you kidding me?

So in-summary, no choices of any kind, a lackluster story, a boring prop of an MC, horrible sex scenes, a paywall, no choice in women or even who you can like and forced sex with characters.

Story 1/5 (bad)
Sex 1/5 (horrible)
Characters 2/5 (would be better if not forced on you)
Art 2/5 (ok at best)
Choices 1/5 (skip stuff)
Kinks 0/5 (none)

Great start to Isekai! The game really has a lot of potential to become a top with the same quality renders and animations!

Cute girls, multiple animations, a short plot and an interesting fantasy adventure...

If the developer continues in the same spirit, the game will receive well-deserved praise and attention! I recommend it if you want to dive into Isekai and win a harem.

One of my Highlights on F95 because i am a hughe Anime Fan and really love Isekai Themed Animes in a Fantasy Setup.
Cant Understand the Low Rating so far but from me it gets 5 Stars and they are very well Deserved.

I'm sorry that I'm rating this so low. I like to live by the rule of "If you have nothing nice to say, don't say it at all," but I couldn't in good conscience see this sitting at 4/5 Stars, knowing the high expectation I had launching it -- only to be met with writing worse than FaCe ThE sTrAnGe. At least if that were the case, then it would be so over the top that it was "ironically" good. It takes itself seriously all the while being riddled with grammatical errors, leaps of logic, and unrealistic conversation. As an example: they try to establish the value of the fantasy currency. You apparently surprise the main girl by offering to split loot worth about 3,000$, and she refuses while belittling herself like she has an inferiority kink. Then in a later scene -- a character threatens to kill you for fucking her friend -- the same girl from before -- and when she says she was okay with it, the anger is diffused, long enough for you to demand reparations for being -- assaulted emotionally or something. The girl gives you 10,000$. Its not like she likes you now or feels genuinely sorry, because she threatens you more before leaving. . . to which your character is like -- yeah I'm gonna fuck her. No one even brings up that "shit, 10K is huge" even though such a big deal was made over 3K. They just go on smiling like nothing happened. I've had wet dreams with more concise story than this, and its the first time in years where I had to close a game mid dialogue because "I couldn't" keep reading it. This is only one example of many, and was the last straw before I exited out. The animated 3D CG is great though and if it was just a CG collection without having to torture myself with the dialogue -- it might be like a 3/5 or something.

The most generic shit you will ever see. Like seriously this is so generic everything gives me deja vu.

Slaves? They will fall in love with you instantly.
Succubus? More fodder for the harem.
Protagonist? As powerful as the story needs him to be.
Antagonists? Average IQ of 60.

Do yourself a favour and don't waste your time.

TL;DR = good harem game.

Story: 5/5
Pros:
+ Main hero is summoned into a fantasy world full of magic. He will encounter typical things like elves, dwarves, goblins, trolls. etc.
+ During his adventures he meets a lot of sexy females. Girls will end up joining his adventurer party (it is pretty much his harem, kek).
+ Plot is not very deep, but I enjoyed it regardless.
+ Another great thing is the fact, that the game is making a little bit fun of those "summoned hero into different world" troppes. If you have read or watched some stories with "transmigration" , "summoned" or "isekai" than you will smile at a lot of situations.
Cons:
- Story is a bit cliché at times. (like: Girls are just crazy for MC and his cock)
- If you dont know meaning of "isekai" or "summoned hero" then you wont get many referrences.

Art and Sex Stuff: 5/5
Pros:
+ Renders are good.
+ Girls are hot.
+ Sex scenes are good.
+ Game has sex animations. They are good.
Cons:
- Sadly a lot of sex scenes will feel similar. Sex scenes could have more variety.

Gameplay: 4/5
Pros:
+ This is typical Visual Novel with choices.
+ Choices have some impact on the gameplay. But you will only change what sex scenes you will see.
+ Game has okayish soundtrack.
+ Game has nice sound effects. You can hear girl moaning during sex. You can hear sword clashes during fights. Etc.
+ English is decent. (There are some typos here and there, but nothing major).
Cons:
- Sadly there are 2 (sex) scenes that are hidden behind paywall.

To sum it up:
I really enjoyed the game. I will definitely recommend this.

Game version: 0.3

The game and the characters are well made and the renders are quite good but the loops are a bit short.

Unfortunatly this game ticks every trope in an Isekai I can't stand.

- MC boring (horny) as fuck and "broken" skillwise
- This "happy" slaves BS
- Every living male in this world is either a psychopath or a herbivore
- The whole world is like "Oh noes a problem" conveniently the problem gets solved with broken skills or "coincidence"

I wish the dev all the best with this project and maybe their next game is more to my liking.

Game version: 0.3

This game would be much better if the MC wasn't such an unlikable a*shole. He even seems to have at least two different personalities: One seems to be kind and respecful, even humble while the other is sexist, over-the-top-arrogant and selfish.
Get this, dev: A man can have all the pussy and STILL act as an adult man at the same time!

The grammar/ translation is full of mistakes and typos, but this didn't annoy me very much- I still got the message.
The writing isn't good either. It's boring and another of these "Kid with giant penis + Women, who crave nothing more than big penises the MC's big penis (You know, personality is soo overrated)" kind of games.
Humor is childish/ immature and slightly cringe-worthy at times.

The only field where this game shines is the sex: Renders are good, so are the animations during the sex scenes.
In no way extraordinary, but solid.

Another annyoing thing is some paywalled content (I think it's ~ 5 locked scenes, most of them with new characters). It's getting more and more at the later chapters. Completely unneccesary.

Atm, I'm just following this game because there's just enough content to make my Peter wiggle.

Has a good story with the pacing well thought out and very well written and the humor is good but is quickly passed to not get cringy or distracting from the story. LI's have some personality and are unique enough to give attachment. Overall very good, will be waiting for more updates.

[v0.2] Review
Good 3D hentai animation and a cheesy story for players to endear the characters to while not front loading too much story to understand the plot/world. Love it when I get inserted into an H-Game that uses a story to supplement the H-Scenes.

I'm looking forward to further updates.

We'll start with the obvious, the game looks amazing. No question that a lot of work has been put into that, and as far as I'm concerned it's payed off. As was stated below however, during the sex scenes the background moves, as well as the characters. This is definitely unsettling and nauseating after a while. If the dev went back and made the backgrounds static, such that only the characters were moving, it would dramatically increase the quality.

The writing is...rough. The game needs a proofreader desperately, there's a number of misspelled words and grammar errors. It's not enough to really detract from the game, but when coupled with a very unoriginal story, it drops it down to 3 stars for me.

All in all, I think the game could definitely hit 4 stars. Get a proofreader to fix spelling mistakes and smooth out the background during sex scenes and it'd be an easy 4 for me. I'm looking forward to seeing what comes next.

The writing isn't very good, but it's not so bad that it ruins the game.

The renders and animations are very good. Enough that I would have given it 4 stars if it weren't for one major issue:
The dev attempts to animate the background as well during the scenes. It is so out of sync with the action in the foreground that it's only a nauseating distraction that makes it impossible to focus on the high quality animation happening in the front.

this game is something ive been looking for a long time, plot is short so you wont get bored before some juicy content. Great characters and thier diversity, and even better animations. Personally top 1 so far.

I really enjoy this game when I play it with out my big head but with my small head. The author definitely know his track, either you make a game with good story like a VN, or if you are not good at writing story you just make tons of sex scenes like a hentai manga. I love both, and this game is obviously on the second track. The story is basically on the level of Japanese isekai toilet paper light novels, but with a lot of high quality sex animations. About 7 sex scenes so far in 0.2. I don't want be too picky on adult games and for many games, even if they aren't perfect but have standout qualities, I sincerely hope we can approach them with a different mindset and perspective(using big head or small head to think ). After all, games like these aren't something you come across frequently.

It's really interesting, I have to say, it's the first time I've played a game where I'm an isekai character. There's a system and a harem that reminds me of Japanese anime.

The update is also extremely fast, I remember it only takes 1-2 months for you to update to the 2nd version, it's worth a try.

Review for v0.1

The game name and the opening lines talking about dying and waking up in a new world "just like manga or anime" told me more than enough about this. It's an admittedly pretty looking game filled with very generic writing and a cringe anime-inspired protagonist.

This opening chapter has not captured me in the slightest, mostly because it does absolutely NOTHING new. While I can also understand wanting to just lean into the typical power fantasy isekai thing, even then does it fall extremely short. To the point I started skipping dialogue because the protagonist was giving me a headache. You get offscreen killed by "truck-kun", wake up in this new tropey fantasy world, and immediately start casting a bunch of magic and leveling up because you're overpowered. The MC has nothing noteworthy to talk about. Picture a stereotypical anime MC and try to guess his lines, odds are you'll get pretty close. He's just annoying man.

Two of the girls practically fall for you immediately and throw themselves at you, we get some generic lines about a demon king, decide to form a party to take him down, blah blah. Literally nothing you haven's seen before if you've played (or watched) anything similar. Couldn't tell you much of anything else writing wise because there just isn't anything TO talk about.

One thing I will praise is the inclusion of extra animations for things like battles and such. I think it's always a nice touch when an AVN includes extra details like that.

Again yeah the renders, models, and animations are all good enough. But it feels empty when the writing, especially with the MC, is actually mind numbing. Hard to see myself ever enjoying this unless the writing astronomically improved. I'll leave this at three stars for now given it's so early, but should nothing improve I'd drop the score down a star and move on.

Ugh, i knew i should've expected it from a game called isekai paradise, but fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck is it insufferable to read through

The little content it has took me a while to get through due to having to fucking reel back from cringe and recover, like is this satire? is the dev purposefully doing this to do some social commentary? I wish he'd stop, he's not good at it

I foolishly believed i'd see some trope subeversion or something, a new interpetation of the medium, fucking ANY sign of originality

Sadly i was disappointed

Though in 0.1v, if this is the quality that will be continued, im not quite hopeful of this game

for what they're worth, the models are fine, though i'd say the outfit choices could be better

The writing of the few scenes was also quite dull, and given it's a vn, there will be no gameplay section
