RPGM - Lilith Descent [vC Test D4] [Spanktank]

[Test C]

There's a lot of good, and a lot of bad, result being too tedious for me.

The good:
Unique art, plenty of fairly developed systems, rogue-lite elements, an actual story and quite interesting characters.

The awful part:

• That enemy was actually 5 bad guys in a trench-coat for surprise mass fights, sometimes random elites. Since there was actual physical representation on the map as a single enemy, this is just a dick move.
• Random, inescapable traps- sure, there are some that are marked by a pink spot, others are entirely invisible bullshit.
• Low combat rewards- fight to get EXP for small stat ups, since chests are where the loot is, some junk from fights to sell individually is just a waste of effort and inventory space.
• Slow speed- movement speed is crawl/stumble rather than walk/run, combat AOE damage, buffs, debuffs get applied individually, with individual animations, menus- so many options for lore, rather than function, confirmations and at places cluttered UI.
• So many elements (elementalaffinities, physica lstatuses) and equipment, consumables, modifiers for them makes it all a mess.

I wish this project the best, but it's just too against the player to be fun, and instead becomes annoying.

Version: Test C

considering how utter garbage the save/load system is and how buggy it is, i had to deduct 2 points. so normally this game would be 4/5 due to bugs and grind losing 1 point, but the save buginess alone makes it 2/5.

note: DONT CLICK AND TALK TO THE SKELETON IN THE BASE. it's a dev/cheat system WHICH CANNOT BE UNDONE.

i got teleported to a random high level cave and spent hours trying to get out. utter garbage. of course save didn'T help because save seem to only save your stats like pheromones and etc... which updated my pheromones from 7 to like 67 since my MC gets gigaraped there. and Load doesn't put you to the place where you saved the game, nor can you reset those dev/cheat scenarios. very bad design.

now aside from save function the game is pretty fun. and unique. not low effort by any means. if not for the skeleton in main room completely breaking the game to be near unplayable then it would be a decent game with decent music, and art as you can see is mediocre but not low effort. problem is H -scenes are a bit lacking. it has battlefuck mechanic but a very beta-version of it. H-scene on defeat which is very similar to Karryn's Prison... in fact nearly identical. but I like it. it's just art is not that good.


this game could be really good if it doesn't get abandoned and i might change my rating but considering i completely wasted hours of my life due to that skeleton completely breaking the game i rate this patch as unplayable because most of you will fall into same trap who talk to that skeleton, since there is no warning to anything about it.

I am rating this 5 stars since it's a game that's really well put together and I absolutely adore the playstyle. You can essentially later on create a loadout for your companions, which all in their own respect have different playstyles. The battles are pretty interactive (reminds me of Karryn's prison) and the H-scenes are definitely very good aswell. There are some unpolished stuff here and there (for example the time to load the ESC screen etc. is a bit annoying but manageable) but overall I really like this game so far and see alot of potential in it.

Also idk what the review from below is talking about, giving it a bad rating cuz ur too bad to beat the first boss (which with a bit of strategy becomes very easy) just because you think a porn game is not meant to have hard battles is a bit of a stretch. It's like people complaining that they can't beat elden ring bosses and need an easy mode for the game even though the design and difficulty scale is pretty good. Overall I would say skill issue for that guy, I personally find the game amazing though so 5/5 from me.

This review was for version B4

This game.... is not good in its current form. Theres little content, which is to be expected for a game early on so it isn't a huge deal. The stand out thing though is the balancing. Its been a while since i've seen it done this poorly. You need to grind to see anything worth while in this game. I couldn't even get to the companions because after 90 minutes of grinding, the first boss would repeatedly one shot me. Taking damage during battle? No healing spells. Go grind for money to buy larger healing items. Want to level up and acquire new skills? Tough break, you only get those on the defeat of the boss, you know, the one that one shots you. Better go grind to try and survive their attacks.

From what i've read here in the postings, you have to defeat the boss not once, but twice to be able to unlock the ability for companions. COMPANIONS. In a party based battle rpg. I don't know for sure, because i'm not investing hours into grinding in a hentai game. I was going to break out cheat engine, but I instead shrugged and moved on with my day.

The combat system at least spices things up a little bit allowing you to take a tactical action and a physical action, pulling from the same resource. Its a fun idea, but Karryn's prison had them pulling from two different resources for a reason, it depletes your power far too quickly. How do you restore it? Why i'm glad you asked, back to grinding for power restoring items. Wanna use one? Killed by the boss because you spent a turn restoring a resource other than health.

I do admire the hand drawn art style, but it can't make up for the rest of the games short comings

I'm rating this 3 stars because it is competently put together. This is a project that has potential, but needs work. A good amount of it, maybe a few reworked systems too.

The game is excellent, at least so far as my views are concerned. The art style is pretty nice, especially when compared to the numerous standard RPGmakers and 3d Renpy visual novels out there.

Combat is interesting enough, if on the more unbalanced side in your favour. There will be very difficult situations, but you'll need to play risky to get into any danger most of the time. It is thus not annoyingly hardcore, and lewds can be pursued however you wish.

Story is relatively interesting so far, nothing revolutionary currently in the opening of floor 2, but provides a good backdrop for the dungeon diving. It is a little on the slow side in the beginning, and the companions you'll eventually receive are all going to be level 1 when you do.

Overall, an excellent experience however.

Based on version B4.
This game has a lot of potential.
While it's combat mechanics are clearly influenced by another famous RPGM battle sex mechanic, one can play with other characters and even summon help.
I know this is a work in progress (WIP), so I'm giving 5 stars for story, diversity of playable characters and renders.

The developer(s) share sketches and motivations at the game's main blog page. And it feels like there is a lot of passion and effort being put at this game.

Even if it involves combat ant and outer worldly creatures, there is no too tense/dark atmosphere, like occurs on some japanese RPGM games that, IMHO get a too dark tone and abuse too much of their main characters.

I wish the developer(s) can put out a great game when they're done.

When the other reviewer said that this game was better than Karryn’s Prison, which IMO is one of the best hentai games released this decade, I thought he was exaggerating. Turns out no, this game really has at least displayed the potential to surpass KP, and in some areas it already has.

Probably the most critical difference that gives this game an advantage over KP is the setting. Frankly speaking, a penitentiary was never an ideal place to try and make a 20+ hour playtime hentai game in. Lilith’s Descent’s setting of an otherworldly dungeon dimension already gives it far more breathing room, and it’s already using it to pretty good effect. The deeper combat system and RPG mechanics, the absence of the annoying micromanaging that KP has, the better story and the way the player character can interact more with the world, all of that comes from the change in setting, and Lilith’s Descent is all the better for it.

Even little details like the menu are far more engaging to me than KP’s equivalents. Everything from the little journal entries, the touches of personality in everything including even the glossary, shows a level of effort that is nothing short of commendable.

There are a few things I wished the developer took from KP though. The ability to control what body parts the enemies will use to, err, “enjoy” themselves was one of my favourite features of KP. The player having control over what kind of porn the player sees would be much appreciated.

Aside from that, the only other thing is the relative lack of content which is not something I can seriously hold against a game in its alpha stages. To be honest though, the developer could do the bare of just adding more enemy varieties and different backgrounds (a forest-like area would be nice) and it’d be good enough. Although considering the level of care and effort on display I doubt they’ll settle for that.

In terms of quality-to-development time this game more than deserves a 5 star rating. The only reason I’m giving it 4 is because it’s downright irresponsible to give the highest rating possible to a game that’s barely in it’s alpha stage. I look forward eagerly to see how this potential masterpiece grows.

Ok, where to start of with this one,
I just can't put any bad words on the game, it was enjoyable to play even at the A3 Version (tho i rarely play Early Versions and choose to play ones in either the middle or done) but its great.

the Fighting Sequences are Great and Progression of it was quite Descent (get it... ok i will stop). Few things to make this better (atleast Journey's or other girls in your party)
- Her Sprite can take her clothes or change (due to what she is wearing at the moment, can make a great look base on what she had because her outfit's are quite great. man prioritize to have Bra's and Panties in the equipment XD)

- Variations for how her Defeats can (ok this one is due to its current development, can see this being added and more diverse later on so Count this out for now)(Oh and i would Donate to have Lilith ones too XD)

So far other than this 2 there aren't many things to point out on the Game it self. Personally going to watch this thing to see how the game works out and develops.

The fact I am first to review this game on this website boggles my mind. Without a shadow of a doubt, this is a five-star game that has had a lot of thought, effort and love in the design. It has been extrodinarily enjoyable to play, even at this early stage of development.

The best contrast I can give to a game like this is Karryn's Prison. It has similar gameplay in terms of combat and defeat. However, in my opinion, this is better than Karryn's Prison-- simply because it does not focus on corruption nor management of any kind. You are an adventurer: you go into a dungeon that randomly generates the enemies and loot. That, within itself, is amazing. The enemies are well thought-out and their dialogue within combat makes me giggle.

The story and characters can be described with one word: sexy. The world is designed to be as beautiful and as sexy as possible. At no point do you feel like you are NOT playing a porn game, yet there is still thought put into the game to make it so much more with interactions and lore in the world.

I am basically making this review on the A3 version where there is a lot lacking. Mostly images and various lewd scenes, such as an actual image to represent Journey being covered in cum or variations in the defeat scenes. I have found it a challenge to actually have Journey raped in combat, let alone make her last long enough in defeat to enjoy the scene. This is undoubtedly going to be improved upon in the future, so I REALLY do not mind. Playing this game has been the most fun I've had in a good long while =)

I hope Spanktank reads this and knows they are doing the world a service by creating this game <3
