    One of the best villain motives in gaming. A hero's journey that actually makes sense. A fantasy universe you can get immersed in. Models with lots of time and thought put into them. What's there not to love?

    Just finished v0.34, figured I'll write a review about it.

    The story itself is pretty good. While I don't always understand or like the direction it heads, it's at least well-contained without visible unresolved plot points. The importance of the MC's Truthsaying powers was also executed well enough. To get the best outcome, I played twice, once blindly and once following a walkthrough. It's obvious that if you want to get the most of what you want out of a game you need a guide, but playing blindly and seeing the MC's actions backfire also works for me. There will be a Ne Game + feature in the future, so I'm looking forward to reliving the tale with an ending in mind.

    Characters - mainly the love interests girls you get to fuck - are likeable. It's quite clear this game is in some way a power fantasy, so don't expect every girl to be created equal. They are at least relevant to the main plot, so it's not much of an issue anyway. They also have their respective endings like a dating sim, so save scumming is definitely necessary for enjoying them all.

    In short, I like this game enough to wait for future updates just to see what happens.

    The Story is immersive and unfolds in a great manner.
    The best part is linking all the clues together n solving the mystery.
    That's pretty new and engaging. It can be used in all future detective theme VNs.
    Belle takes care of the fun element.
    And all the characters had a solid background.
    A must play for sure.
    Waiting for the update now.

    This game has a better story than most AAA games. It is so creative and it delivers the story at a pace that keeps you engaged, rather than holding down on the skip button. The models and animations are all good but it is the characters and story that make this game truly shine.

    Ooh

    GRIND. GRIND. AND MORE GRIND

    Ancient formula of repeating the same actions over and over to get slight scene variations. AKA unplayable without a walkthrough and if it was a VN would be much better albeit much shorter.

    PROS
    Animation; Seems like about 10 fps but at least its not a slideshow
    Sharing Options; Reverse NTR; Of course its not forced and avoidable
    Memorable Sex scenes
    Character Models look different
    Decent Story which stays true to its setting
    Great Dialogue
    Nice fetishes and kinks
    The Mind reading element is nicely done

    CONS
    GRIND
    GRIND
    MORE GRIND
    Creepy Rapey Sleepsex. Although permissible in that era not cool in any era.
    Ill say it. The MC has a less than average sized Johnson. Should be big or better than average. Want to see these girls get filled to the brim!

    I dont mind Point and Click but this game has this ancient formula to progress the story which in my book deems the game almost unplayable although at least not for technical reasons as I encountered no bugs or glitches. Imagine playing Mario or Mass Effect and as you progress you find out the next level or stage is the same as the last stage just with a minor tweak. That would be repetitive and boring. A very popular 2D game on this site has certain tasks that you perform and its the only time you'll ever do them. No spoilers but the scene with the Queen while the King watches made me diamond. Redemption for a game at point on the way to the recycle bin. Walkthrough is an absolute MUST for this game. Definitely worth your time just expect a GRIND.

    I just finished tus amazing game and what can I say... "Amazing" doesn't even makes it justice.

    I just enjoyed at max all this game could offer, it's such a brilliant medieval-fantasy adventure on its own with its amazing characters, and its amazing writing, and its amazing story, its amazing gameplay based on getting clues and investigating and resolving plots and perfecting stats RPG style... Just perfect, but it also includes some wonderful lewd to accompany the whole thing.

    Just a brilliant product, Belle, you should be really proud for what you achieved here, an amazing work.

    Please, do yourself a favor and try this piece of art, you wouldn't regret it.

    The only thing i dislike about this game is how long it took me to play it.

    The writing in this game is levels above your standard affair. Pacing is slow, but that's preferable in this style, and the writing is open ended.

    My only actual critiuqe is that the art direction is a little stale - that isn't to say the art is bad, just that it's not as stand out as the writing. But it's great regardless. Great game.

    Amazing game with great storyline/dialogue, one of the rare times I played a porn game and read everything in-between. Engaging characters and fairly straight-forward progression. Definitely looking forward to it being completed.

    One of the better games out there atm. The story really captivates you and choices matter to an extend. Game gets rather dark near the end and the music really helps set the mood. The games deals pretty heavily into magic and arcane arts , so those who like similar stuff will be interested.

    Technical quality has improved over the course of the story, and there are some engaging characters. But most importantly this VN has a compelling storyline. You want to know what is going to happen next.

    The story is by far the best things, I love the graphics but the the story is just so good. Very complex and just in depth. Lots of twists and turns and the game leaves you asking for more. Not only in the story but the content that it provides is amazing.

    Version reviewed: v0.32.0p

    I picked up and started playing this game because it was recommended by a friend. I'm glad that I gave it a try!

    Pros
    • Good and compelling story
    • Good writing
    • Diverse and interesting characters
    • Good character development with skills
    • Freedom to move around and do quests in different orders
    • Semi-open world setting
    • Magic and spells
    • Normal human world mixed with fantasy world - good blend
    • Isn't a pure visual novel
    • Game keeps you interested and hooked

    Cons
    • Game is rendered in 1280x720 resolution. Very few players use this low of a resolution and so the Ren'Py engine has to stretch the images to fit higher resolutions. This greatly impacts image quality and detail.
    • Graphics and renders in the game are average to low quality
    • Game could really benefit from a quest journal. It is a bit too easy to get stuck in the game and have to ask other players for help or refer to a walkthrough.
    • Belle and the majority of female characters in the game don't have realistic personalities when it comes to sex (more details in the notes below)
    • Anal sex in the game isn't realistic (more details in the notes below)

    Notes

    Belle and the majority of female characters in the game don't have realistic personalities when it comes to sex. Belle's personality is 100% male with the male being bisexual.

    The game is a male teenager's wet dream. Most of the female personalities in the game are good until it comes to sex. They then take a 90 degree turn into how males wish females would act. Most of the female personalities act like males in the bedroom. It is quite the fantasy and will satisfy most of the male population but is far from realistic. If you don't care about realism then you won't have a problem with this.

    Anal sex is portrayed very unrealistically in the game. Several times, the player has anal sex with anal virgins in the game. Anal sex hurts them for the first minute, is uncomfortable the second minute, and then feels good for the third minute and forever.

    This is not even close to how anal sex works. Anal sex is painful and very uncomfortable without lots of anal training and anal sex experience. It takes quite a while and a lot of experience before anal sex is pleasant for the recipient.

    The second problem with anal sex in the game is that the player can go balls deep the first time having anal sex with an anal virgin. In reality, a male usually can't get much more than the head or two inches in the first few times. The anus is so tight it just doesn't allow going balls deep without serious anal training and experience! Even a lot of porn stars can't go balls deep with a long and large cock. What hope does an anal virgin have?

    No lube is ever used for anal sex either aside from the occasional spit. Spit is not enough! Porn stars squirt a syringe full of oil up their anuses before doing anal sex scenes. Normal people use lots of lube otherwise it is too rough for the anus/colon and can do real damage.

    The game treats all females in the game like experienced porn stars when it comes to sex (especially anal sex).

    Most teenage males aren't aware of how sex works in real life and so this reaffirms my belief that the game was written as a teenage male fantasy.

    Final Thoughts

    The game is fun and enjoyable if you don't take it too seriously! Just accept that parts of the game aren't realistic and you'll have a great time!

    I do wish the renders were better but they are acceptable.

    I do recommend this game and encourage others to give it a try!

    Review of v0.32

    This is easily my favorite indie porn game.

    I'm not even in the target audience for some of the central fetishes like incest and mind control / molestation, but they don't bother me either. Similarly, I don't generally like sandbox games, but I enjoyed the other aspects of the game enough to not be put off by the sandbox elements.

    Enough about what I merely tolerate.

    The game has great writing and gameplay! Writing means many things: dialogue, story, characterization, plotting, structure. The story is unexpectedly interesting, and there are some fun twists (even if you see them coming). There are many unique story elements, and no soap opera or filler mundane plot beats.

    The women are strong, independent characters. Each gets a character development arc which involves more than just them falling in love/lust with you--though you must advance the character arc to have sex with them too. (Nighttime visitations tide you over until you get that far.) I'm not sure how intertwined the character subplots are with the main plot; because of the sandbox nature, probably not very tightly, but at least on my first playthrough it wasn't obvious since I didn't know whose paths were really important, so it all felt mostly like one plot with reasonably matched subplots.

    For gameplay, the clue system manages to make you feel like a real participant in solving the problems, discouraging you from just trying every option and instead encouraging you to actually understand. I guess you can brute force it, but I generally knew what I was looking for. Linking much of the clue system (and character advancement) into mind-controlled nudity is a weird (in a good way) and unique touch. I had no idea I was looking for good gameplay in a porn game but it was compelling enough to make me finish the current almost-complete version over a single weekend.

    The sex scenes are varied and in varied contexts to fit the characters. Much as soap opera plotting is avoided, all the situations in which you have sex with the characters are pretty different (except the sleep sex scenes, which unsurprisingly have similar options and flow). Most of the sex scenes are pure POV, which I for one appreciate.

    The graphics are pretty good. I like all the character designs. In the later parts the renders are great. I think in some of the earlier renderings the backgrounds seem a bit mushy; maybe not that well-lit or maybe it's just that the stone texture environments don't lend themselves well to looking good, but if it bugs you, see if you can push past it anyway and if you're anything like me you'll be rewarded.

    The ambient background noise is a nice touch and seems to be a rarity in these sorts of games.

    Could anything be better? Sure, smoother, longer animations and maybe lengthier sex scenes. I got stuck a few times and had to check the forum for hints. At least one of those, I just couldn't find a clue that I had and knew I had but had forgotten the picture for it, so some way to see the clue text without mouse-over would have helped that time.

    No doubt if the author could magically spend twice as much effort on it in the same amount of time there'd be other things that could be improved. But why would I bother trying to think of improvements? It's already my favorite indie game on this site.

    this is odd but i came for the porn side of this but it got me hooked by the story and I cannot seem to stop. with how the plot lays out it is almost like but not quiet porn was added to a good story. that being said it feel more earned when you get to it due to the learning you will have to do along the way

    Very interesting game. Good graphics overall and VERY good and unique gameplay mechanics.

    With a little bit of polish, there is certainly potential to become one hell of a game.

    The investigation mechanics needs a little bit of polish, with more descriptions and insights of the clues you find. Maybe a "clue log" or a "journal" would do the trick. The problem is, when you play this game and leave it for, let's say, 3 days, you won't remember any of the shit you were "investigating", thus making it really difficult do keep track of what's going on some times.

    With a little bit more of guiding (the pixie would be a very good way to do so) for the struggling player, it would be a very good mechaninc.

    Overall, it's very focused on molesting and taking advantage of women, so that needs to be your thing.

    This is a five star game. This is how indie porn game should look like. There's a story here, and quite original one, with deep characters and surprising, meaningful twists. The art is great and the dialog interesting. Surprisingly for a porn game, the plot provides independent and strong cast of women (for you to fuck) making you respect and desire them at the same time. Kudos.

    I played it with a walkthrough (I always do when I play a porn game) but I suspect it can be quite challenging, if not downright frustrating, to play it without one. Even with a walkthrough I managed to get stuck once or twice but eventually found the solution.

    My only minor gripe is the renders. While beautifully rendered, the artist decided to render all the sex scene from first person perspective. While this works reasonably well in doggy style position and blowjobs,the results are very unsatisfying in missionary position and are downright creepy when a girl "kisses" the MC: you basically get a screen full of the girl's face puckering her lips. Erotic? Not so much. Which is a shame for a game which put heavy emphasis on the plot and the first kiss with a character is actually an erotic moment.

    All in all: great game, interesting plot, great renders. Highly recommended.

    I gotta start by saying i'm a sucker for medieval settings. They don't have to be super accurate. That's what made me even download this.
    (The following is just my opinion which could vastly differ from the general pov)

    The PROS :

    EDIT : I had to come back and say this is a major Pro for me. Characters have Normal - Small sized boobs. I hardly ever enjoy those massive atomic bomb death star tits most VN characters have and I GREATLY appreciate the variety here

    The best part about this game is the clue system that you need to pay attention to. You bring pieces of clues together and come to conclusions that progress the story. The writing is not overdone and also not a dumbed down Click Here To FUCK game. I really enjoyed the way it developed. It didn't feel rushed and it didn't feel like I was reading walls of text to see what happens next. Some VNs although great, have moments where I read dialogue fast just to see what's happening next because a lot of it while nice for the 'detail' touch, just makes it seem draggy (new word).
    I found myself actually reading every line properly with this one.

    The Characters are super interesting and fun to interact with. My personal favorites are Belle, Nell and The MCs sister. I don't want to get into spoilers so I won't elaborate on details. Very well written with looks that fit the personalities.

    I'm also glad this VN has audio. I know it's not a big deal for most, but I do enjoy some white noise / background music filling in the scenes. It just gets me more immersed. The audio does match the emotion of the scene a lot of the time so kudos to the Dev.

    Smoosh scenes get better as you progress. They're not bad in the beginning but pretty much your basic VN scenes and I don't mind really. I play adult VNs for the plot too and so the scenes didn't really bother me that much. They do however grow in quality as you go through the days so I appreciate that the developer put more work into bringing them to life.


    The CONS :

    The biggest Con for me ( by no means is this gamebreaking. It's just my personal preference) is that sometimes you might get stuck and not know what to do next. That happened to me a lot and while I do appreciate the freedom the player has, a task list would've greatly helped. I found myself stuck with 'what do i do to progress here' a lot. Again this might just be me.

    With regards to the Story and writing, the only thing that threw me off like 1% was that a fair bit of the dialogues fit current times and so watching characters dressed in medieval outfits talking like its the future kinda bothered me at first but it's really no big deal. I'm really just nitpicking here just for a complete review.

    The renders in the beginning may sometimes feel weird like only the selected body part is vigorously moving while everything else is a statue. I understand it's not easy to develop these scenes so it's fine but I figured i'd mention it.


    Overall a definitive 4.5/5 at the very least. Got much more out of it than I expected and i'm eager to see where the story takes me with the next update.

    Ranting Old Man

    ***** 5/5 Story telling
    **** 4/5 Renders
    ***** 5/5 Character Development
    **** 4/5 Animated Scenes

    Okay so I generally don't have a very high opinion as far as story telling goes for most games in general. I'm often of the opinion that devs care more about cheap sex scenes, and making a quick buck off of fetishes than they do about telling a good story with good character development. That is not what you will get with this game
    I was skeptical at first because the beginning was very slow and slow beginnings often end up telling a slow or dull story. Man was I wrong. The story doesn't start off very fast but as it picks up pace the lore and character development had me playing untill 5am without even realizing it. I highly recommend this game for anyone who enjoys page turners or great story telling.

    I give this game a total of 5/5 stars ***** any dev who takes the time to focus on a unquie, lore rich story with well developed characters deserves a 5 star rating even from me.

    The endgame gave me chills. Excellent story. Never expected such twists in a game. There are a few games which have a good start but only a few end it the same way. And this game is one of those. Loved all the models. The tag mentions pregnancy but I have not come at that choice. Maybe I need to play differently to get through that route. Overall the game is excellent. Can't wait for the ending.
