Others - Kronos Time Titan [v25.11.23] [Scarlett Young]

gets an extra star for the effort and ideas but loses the rest for execution.
game is riddles with bugs and the engine it's running on is clunky and runs poorly on my computer... when it runs because i don't think i had it run for more than 15 minutes without a restart.
a lot of grind, no animations but it's somewhat of a decent story... if only it was more playable, made more sense and maybe it was less grindy

I gave this game a second chance after first playthrough in like 2021.

Firstly, I respect all devs and hard work that they put into their games but compared to other games on this forum, it severely disappoints.

The game has been in development for like 4 years, but it can be finished in 30 minutes or less without the added pointless grind:

• Finding 9 pearls while having to navigate "puzzle" like platforms with only 3 of them available at a time - YOU HAVE TO RESET IT AND REPEAT EVERY DIALOGUE EACH TIME and if you choose the wrong choice during the quest YOU HAVE TO DO IT ALL OVER AGAIN (NO SAVE SYSTEM !!!! WTF?)
• Finding 20 bras with only 3 of them available at a time - YOU HAVE TO RESET IT AND REPEAT EVERY DIALOGUE EACH TIME
• You get the point right ?

I don't mind GRIND at all, I actually prefer it in games because it feels very rewarding when done right. However, this game is SEVERELY lacking in any sex scenes whatsoever - so the dev has to put up walls and terrible gameplay loops in order to prolong it.

• I counted like 8-9 "sex" scenes in the whole game and most of them have like 3 or 4 renders (no details, no closeups, nothing)

Available worlds also have a lot of clutter in them, like rock formations, caves, houses, villages, forests, etc. - BUT you can only click on like 2 or 3 at most in any of them, which gets really confusing as you walk around and click on everything pointlessly.

Rating: Two stars because I like the the game setting in medieval times, clothing system and characters, otherwise - as it is, I would consider it highly unrewarding and waste of time.

-1 Star for Game breaking bugs
-1 Star for confusing Quest Objectives which in combination with the bugs make the game almost unplayable
-1 Star for little to no Contant (again i dont know if its the bugs or if there is just nothing there yet. For a game that is in development for 4 years this is embarrassingly little)
-1 Star for useless grind. You dont need any of it. Sure you need some money here and there and some outfit pieces look good. But after 1 hour i had 10k coins and got some mix max of outfits. The money is mostly useless as of now so even after buying everything in game youre still constantly hitting the 10k max. And the clothes are useless too. Sure you can play dress up with the girls but why? Most of them stay in your castle and have no scenes yet and the on with scenes dont get different with the outfits so the outfits are just some eyecandy if you eat candy with the wraper. You need to fight 1000 battles to find them all and its useless. (Hester or whats her name is suposed to train the girls but i never found out how even after trying all dialog. So again either i missed something, its not implemented yet or its a bug. Who knows at this point.)
+1 Star for the setting and story which have a lot of potential. They are not perfect but they are different.

This is a message for the dev who as i see in the comments is active on f95.
Dude for real drop a Walkthrough. Im all for giving people a challenge but your game is riddled with bugs right now. People are confused and dont know if its a bug or they did something wrong in many situations.
This community is very understanding and forgiving in my experience. If some of the reviewer knew that they got a bug they probably wouldnt be as frustrated. But they are searching for 20 minutes through all the maps write a comment asking for help only to get an answer days later that its a bug. Or in my case no answer at all.
Maybe this game has some awesome scenes i missed because i gave up looking after not finding the answer just because i assumed its another bug.
Looking at the star subtraction 2 of them easy could have been avoided if the game actually had a walkthrough and i wasnt so pissed for wasting my time trying to figure out what i did wrong only to then find out it was a bug all along.
Not to mention that your game also misleads us on the status of a quest. After Aria gives you a BJ at the beach she jumps in the lake and the dialoge says something like "Maybe i see more of her IN THE NEXT UPDATE"
I only discovered that the quest wasnt finished after coming back here and seeing the pictures on the site where you have sex with her. But even after finding out walked into another bug in that fight scene with Ursula or whatever and had to start the quest again. I didnt bother since the quest is a fucking grind with the perls, the neckless and whatever but still, the game itself tells you not to look for content.

I have never written a review before but here it goes.

I believe this game is amazing with the time that has gone into it with steady updates but also the content is top notch. It's super cool how it uses timey wimey effects to change things that happen in the future inside the game, in my opinion very unique. Are there bugs in this game that cause it to crash randomly or get stuck in spots? Yes, but you have to remember it's also still being worked on and the author is amazing about reading users feedback and proceeding to fix that issue. I would honestly give this game 5 stars because of the art, story, and content, but of course I'll take just 1 star off for the bugs and the inconvenience they cause but once this game is completed I will more than likely give this 5 stars.

Keep up the awesome work and don't let the bad reviews get to you!

I couldn't even start actually playing the game before I experienced 2 bugs with the second character interaction. A buggy mess that clearly needs patches and the ability to manually save so we can rollback to before the bugs started occurring.

Overall: 1/5, an interesting premise ruined by the bugs that begin almost immediately if you are unlucky.

This game has some issues, but I overall really love it and want to see the development continued. As for changes I would make, changing the movement system, when not in combat, to not have no "tile" limit would be best. Then, when you are in combat there could be the 5 tile limit. Someone else mentioned this fix here and I fully agree!

v23.08.05
There are two exes.
1. KronosTimeTitan.exe which is supporter version. it demands you register an online account and login to play.
2. ktt.exe which is free version. skips the online login, this is the file named
Nowhere does it mention which version is which in the actual game.

you should really be using a license file instead of an online login.
There is absolutely no mention of any of this info and which version you are running when you run either exe.
There is also no readme file. Instead this tidbit is hidden in the install instructions on F95 of all places.
(even though this isn't actually an install instruction. it is an operating instruction, which is different)
(edit: I have been informed that dev took my advice and future versions now clarify in readme about the two exe files. so posting this correction here. do note the version number at the top of this review.)

The very first conversation starts with a broken 4th wall which I personally really dislike.
MC is apparently a moron, and the dialog was really unimpressive.
Dialog also dragged on and on. I get it, stripped of powers by the gods and I need to fuck girls to get them back.
no need to repeat it so many times. The MC might be a moron but I am not.

Navigation is really clunky, as is having conversations with girls.
The game is always running in combat mode. So to go talk to someone you have to move a few steps within your move limit. then wait for all other NPCs on the screen to move. Then you get to move again.
Only having combat mode happen when there are nearby enemies is isometric RPG 101 and something we had over 20 years ago.

Most of the game you are looking at really low res maps and sprites which really do not impress.
After slogging through intro I got to my first decision point.
I wanted to save, there was no UI so I hit esc to see if it brings up the save menu...
Well it started loading something, I have no idea what, and the game then got stuck on a loading screen. So I lost all my progress and I frankly cannot be motivated enough to try again.

I played it a while but lost all interest due to the gameplay. For me it was very time consuming to progress, frustrating and unintuitive. The pictures and girls are very hot but this was not worth for me to try further.

If you are into round-based strategy games without real strategy, this might be for you. Else and if you (like me) expect an easy-paced game with fluent progress towards the adult-content, I highly recommend to try something different.

pros:
- very hot girls and nice images
- big variety of women, very young, mature, thicc, multiple ethnics/races etc

cons:
- lots of unfunny texts to read
- unintuitive UI
- gameplay unnecessary complicated and not good explained (you have to talk to NPCs and read through long walls of text to get the info you are looking for)

wow this game is awesome i been searching for game like this for years i love
how much freedom you can have you have freedom as much as eren Yeager. you can do what ever you want and most of the stuff is optional. i seen people talk about some bugs but i played it for 7 hours and didn't see any bugs or maybe its me or maybe they talk about previous versions of the game.
i give the art: 5/5
story: 3/5
game mechanics: 5/5

I have avoided this game for a long time due to it's negative reviews, however, on its latest update I noticed a slightly higher average rating than before and thought It would be a good time to finally check It out for myself. I'm glad I did.

Judging by previous reviews this game has been notoriously buggy, but during my play through I haven't encountered a single game breaking bug. There are bugs and crashes, but the game is persistent so when you load it back up you are right where you were before the crash.

I do wish there was more content seeing as this game has been around for a while, It seems to me that Greece is the only completed section although I may be wrong.

Overall 4.5/5, great experience. Good work Dev and respect for sticking with it!

very enjoyable game, and scarlett has done great at responding positively towards feedback, both constructive and ignorant. scarlett continues to listen to update and make fixes to the game based on suggestions and bug notifications.

Idea is great but the game crashes more often than Skyrim with a thousand mods. Also the amount of XP required to progress makes it get real grindy real quick. Could also use clearer instructions on where to get what item/do what quest etc.

It took roughly 45 minutes to find my first bug and it spiraled out of control from there. After that I encountered a bug every minute if not second of gameplay, which even if this game had been great would not bring this game above a 3, sadly this game isn't great. None of the models are sexy, story while starting with an interesting premise doesn't really keep that up for long, gameplay is lackluster and it just feels uninteresting to play. Also I have to mention this, a bug occurred when I was grinding wolves where my companion was killed instead of the wolf and I could not for the life of me figure out how to revive her. Might be a power you get later, didn't care enough to find out. Over all, don't play it.

The models look good, the story is interesting and the gameplay mechanics aren't boring. This game however is held back by a few things, bugs bugs and more bugs, too many girls (by this i mean the dev has put quantity over quality. None of the girls feel really fleshed out.), and a lack of direction.

Full of bugs and mechanics needs a lot of work - keeps crashing or having to restart. Also, there's no save button which is quite annoying. Yes you can rewind to start of quest line, but sometimes i just want to go back 1 step, now redo everything. Also, there's no skip text button, you have to click the mouse button like crazy to get past dialogues you already seen.

The story line is too long and boring ,UI could be more user friendly, lot of info in short time I believe even developers are losing track you should make it simpler and go step by step , make it right to the point guys too much talking repeating very confusing UI make it simple!!!!!!!!

I´ve to admit i dont like the graphics but okay thats my optionen.
The thing that i think is pretty bad about this game is the fighting. If you fight more then one wolf it can take you up to 5 minutes to finish them. They just run away from you. I onehit them but then i have to chase them. So if there are three wolfs everyone running in a diffrent direction you are fucked.

And this makes the game realy boring.

Game is good in my opinion.
it's really enjoyable to play.
I would like to se more of the krons development, to make him a real god.

An interesting idea and although time travel is not a favorite trope of mine, I decided to give it a go, mindful of the previous reviews about the UI.

I will admit it took some getting use to, but that was not the problem. The grinding was cute too because there is actual progress with each rewind.
Also the MC's character is like the rewinding and time traveled timelines themselves, every time a new person if you want to play it like that (always a self serving maniac deep down though)

The most critical flaw that keeps this back is the unbelievable amount of bugs that cause freezes and CTDs. Dialogues-crash, overland map navigation-crash, battle map-crash. At this point the DEV has shown no willingness to change the engine so the only realistic hope is for someone else to make a remake on something else (a RenPy remake of a known Unity game comes to mind)

All the best to the dev though because there seems to be true passion behind this buggy mess.

KRONOS is growing on me. Having some issues with the game mechanics now that I've 'sort of' got it figured out. The Harem at the End Of Time is showing some issues with clothing changes. Some body types don't show at all, clothing items are incorrect or invisible, etc. The only fairy I'm able to use is the green one. The blue and red (?) ones won't select. I'm lvl 4 and rapidly approaching the next boost so they should be available. The BIG issue is with the necklace. Dropped the pearls off in 1969 SF and continued roaming through time. When I returned, the artist hadn't begun making the necklace yet. After a little stripping, she started yelling for me to get away from her. I reset the timeline and LOST THE PEARLS. Tried to collect them again, but no mermaids would appear. Been working backwards, resetting timelines trying to get them back. I know what I NEED to do, but the game is fighting me at every turn and the grind it'll take to do it all again isn't worth the trouble anyway. I'm not even sure how to start the game over for chrissakes, or if a reset would even fix the issues! Gonna let KRONOS sit for a while, hoping there won't be a need to repeat gathering 9 pearls for a 2nd time in a future update. Great concept for a game, maybe a little too ambitious on the engine. Humor is spot-on, and the Doctor Who and Monty Python references aren't lost on fans. Looking forward to the update that will include Camelot ('Tis a Silly Place!') My only suggestion (other than the game engine issues I managed to trigger) would be more animations. The few I've found are very good, keep it up!
