RPGM - Completed - Lost Chapter [v2.07] [Almichadia]

When i saw a pile of mud was charmed and came, or when the first boss disabled itself by being too horny, i already knew a Lewd Virgin run is possible.

And worked, it did.
Also, mages are pedophiles,
Mark my Words, chooms

*Gameplay.
//Start as a cute female mc.
\\Starter bonus is provided to you, the answers don't seem to matter much, sadly.
//Roguelike, card game.
\\Variety of forced transformations from items, choices, enemies.
//Variety of titles to unlock, they provide various bonuses.
\\Four bosses + endgame boss to get wrecked by or defeat. Sexually too btw.
//High replayability.
\\Game with sex, not sex with game.
//No save function, the game says it has autosave but i'm not sure it does. Tried loading something and it just ported me back to main menu. Maybe it got overwritten when i lost to endgame boss though. Well, good luck figuring it out.


*Combat.
//Turn based.
\\Simple card combat.
//Battle fuck.
\\RNG is strong in this one.
//Regeneration is also strong in this one.
\\Enemies can and will use transformative spells on you.
//Small variety of cards with various effects to form your deck and playstyle with.


*Art/sex.
\\High quality art.
//Variety of expressions.
\\Partial animation.
//Simple animation.
\\CG room is locked behind "game clear" condition.
//Most fucking happens in combat, not a lot of variety though.


*Sound.
//Has sound settings.
\\Background ambient is good but gets repetitive.
//Various sex sounds present, such as moaning etc.
\\Not voiced.


*Translation quality.
Readable: 6/10
Sloppy TL, text goes out of text box at times.
At other times text is blocked by selection menus.


*Hints.
\\Press and hold shift to see card effects.
//Don't be afraid to game over, it has its own benefits.
\\Flower icon represents your health, not hearts.
//If you make your opponent cum you gain the golden kick finisher card. It kills things. Instantly.
\\Hotkeys displayed at the bottom of the game window. Pay particular attention to the after-battle screen.
//You can avoid selecting cards after enemy defeat if you rolled crap, just right click. Or press Num 0.
\\LP - Life Points. RP - Rape Points.
//Cards that deal RP damage, such as Taunt and Temptation - are extremely strong. When RP hits 0 your enemy will cum, when they cum, you gain instant kill card. No wonder these rarely drop, fill your deck with them and you can cheese this game all day. You can do so anyway though, even without having a lot of temptation and taunt cards. You need mirroring card. This seduction build also goes well with: Witchcraft, Natal Pray, and healing cards. Also the lewder mc is, the more damage your Temptation and Taunt cards deal to enemy RP.


*Afterword.
Finally managed to bring down the RP of the last boss at layer 100 and made him cum, which should have prevented any further action from him for about 2 turns. But no, apparently the nuisance can still hit you anyway, for some reason... so i ded, since my hp was low.... Talk about annoying.

Anyway, decent card game but nothing particularly special.
There's basically no story, it's just some silly rant i was bored of reading pretty fast.

Well, I have to say, I am thoroughly blown away.
A game that is able to integrate a well designed gameplay system, a pretty well told story, exceptional theming AND still have all of these things integrate with an erotic element that is actually part of them and not just lazily stuck onto it? I thought I'd never see the like.

Is this review going to be somewhat biased... probably? So let me make my main bias for these kind of games clear: I adore games which are well designed, as in the various components building up the game; art assets, gameplay loop, game mechanics, audio and probably most rare of all: Theming.
Up until now I had found a handful that managed to achieve excellence in all but one. Now I have the one example of one that does it all.

But as to keep this review as useful as possible to those who may find issues with content which I find at minimum acceptable, let me bring up things which may dissuade some.

Randomness: The game is a Rogue-like to it's core. You don't like playing games with auto-saving and large-scale randomness? Might not be the game for you. Although the game doesn't auto-save mid-encounter unlike games such as Darkest Dungeon. This means that you can have a small effect on the results of your encounters, if they start to go badly.

UX: The one thing that I found myself annoyed by every now and then is being unable to access some - and in the worst cases most - important and relevant information during choices that are affected by that information, such as being unable to view the action deck while choosing new action cards, or worst of all being able to look at or change nothing in the room just before the bosses. This is by far my worst problem with the game, but it is by no means so awful to make the game unplayable.

Visual Bugs: Probably nothing really, the game fails to load card images and info in certain windows sometimes. Only really a problem if you save-scum your encounters.

Everything else? The balance? The Audio? The wonderful theme?
Love them.
Play the game. Love the game. Support the game.
I know I will.

Great H Roguelike, it has great art, great gameplay, and a fun gameplay loop. There's plenty of battle h scenes, lots of events outside of combat, a cool presentation, and variations to almost every scene.

During the battles and some events you can go from your character being normal, to loli, to having breast expansion, along with art for ripped or normal clothes. If you're a fan of deckbuilding roguelikes, here you go!

My only minor complaint that comes from the game is the complete submission to RNG you have. In other roguelikes RNG is a major factor, it's inherent. But with those there's typically ways to sway your RNG (picking a pathway, earning passive bonuses, etc) in this one, there's not many ways to take your path into your own hands apart from making choices in the middle of events. I was playing and got 10 combat encounters in a row, effectively killing my run instantly. But on a different run I didn't get a single combat encounter until the first boss, which meant I had no cards or stats to face the boss with, which wiped me out.

Thankfully if you're really struggling with it, you can just sort of hit F4 and reset the game, it saves your run progress and allows you another shot at getting a floor you want. Once I figured that out I had my run that beat me the game.

Overall Excellent Game

Amazing Rogue like and really good H content! A very good Japanese RPG maker game! The main point of the game is trying to get this girl through a dungeon in a slay the spire-esque card based Rogue-like wherein you gain cards after each normal combat. You gain a bonus after loss so its not a pure rogue like but that is definitely better than just throwing the dice randomly

In short - the game is a reasonably good roguelike with some H elements, but I must stress that last part - I really don't feel that the sex is the primary draw here, although it does have some fairly short scenes and battle sex.

In long - my major gripe with the game is essentially that Last Evil did "very good H-Roguelike" a few years ago, and this game comes up a little shorter on most aspects. This doesn't mean the game's bad; it's still fairly good and I'm comparing to a major gem there, but it is hard not to compare.

I won't really comment on the story, because a lot of it does seem to be intentionally fuzzy, but the basic gist of it is that you have to go through a hundred levels of this purgatory-like place and beat a set number of bosses to escape. Each of these levels may have an enemy fight, a random encounter, or one of the boss fights at various milestones. My main comment here is just that 100 levels does get a bit tedious towards the end, and I don't quite feel like there's enough enemy/event variation to keep things going for that long or for so many playthroughs, so this is maybe best played in shorter bursts. Information about the world leaks out through random events and the occasional character chatter.

Gameplay does have some novel aspects, but for the most part it's fairly standard - cards have an AP cost, you build up AP every round up to a maximum, you draw cards each turn, use what you can with your AP (if you want to) and discard your hand at the end. You gain new cards and minor stat boosts through random events and winning fights. You can get some major stat boosts (especially increasing your Health/AP regen and drawing more cards) through getting Achievements in each playthrough.

The main novelty I noticed is that sex attacks do actually have a bit of an effect in play, and can be used to your advantage. Orgasming yourself does leave you defenceless for a bit, but this counts for enemies too - a good strategy can be to let yourself get fucked (or take the lead yourself) and make them orgasm to open them up to a finisher. One card also gives you money for making an enemy cum, which is one of the few semi-reliable ways of getting cash. That said, the sex itself isn't too extensive - there's no game-over scenes from what I've encountered, just a single H loop for most enemies and a few events where sex can happen. I find this to be a bit of a shame, as it feels like it takes the worst aspects of most RPGM games for the sex elements (the slightly nonsensical, undescribed mid-battle fucks) and cut out the cliché but sometimes fun endings.

I do think that the RNG could be balanced out a bit better, but this may vary from person to person. I do understand that part of the appeal of Roguelikes is the randomness of play, but I feel like it's a bit too easy to end up in a situation where you're simply screwed (but, y'know, in a bad way). Focusing down specific achievements for their improvements is a must (I don't think it's practical to get them all in one run anyway) and getting stat boosts outside of that is too unreliable and too small. I think part of the problem is that, between card-gathering and stat improvements, there are just a few too many moving parts to reliably balance it so that you get some necessary improvements regularly enough. However, you do build up points in previous playthroughs, and they can be spent on (randomized) buffs at the start of each run, which can help later on.

I rather like the art style and feel like it really fits with the mood of the game. My only complaint there is that there's not more of it with a bit more writing. What you see in the examples is pretty much what you should expect in the game.

Game does have a gallery on first completion, and it does allow you to change a lot of settings going in (character state, state of dress, etc), but it's just that the scenes themselves aren't all that extensive.

From a purely technical appreciation aspect - I am surprised that someone made this in RPGM. There's a little bit of jank to it, and things do feel a bit shoehorned in at times, but it is not at all like the usual RPGM games, and I have to give some credit for people using engines in weird ways.

Overall - do really like the game, I just wish there was a lot more to it.

Lost chapter is a Slay the Spire style card battler mixed with a little lewd loli content.

It's a cool idea in theory, but the execution is lacking. Card draw is too low to start, making deck building a chore. While you'll receive cards frequently, not choosing a card is typically the right option. The end result is heavily dependant on RNG, not in the fun way, but in the punishing "I have no choice" way.

In addition, the events are a test of what you've been through and remember previously. There are loosely right and wrong answers based on your build, but once again, the events you encounter are complete RNG. Good luck wins the game easily, bad luck can kill you quickly.

The art and lewd scenes are okay, but nothing incredible. Once again, finding them is RNG (sensing a theme?) but they're pretty decent. I would have liked to see more variety, but you get what you pay for I guess.

Overall, I feel like three stars is a little generous, leaning towards the cool design idea rather than execution. I don't truly recommend the game, but I'd like to see more games like it with better execution.

Very entertaining game loop + porn as extra, really enjoyed the grind. One of few games around here with actual balanced gameplay and quite good and varied sex scenes. Maybe a bit too random but that's rougelike for you.

Pretty close to perfect. Lots of build variety depending on stats you want to focus on, ways to enact or dodge lewd content, three different statuses that change body types, and great game loop.

Shame that "torn clothes" never turns into fully nude, and the general length makes it pretty crushing when you lose to the final boss after a 2 hour run, but ultimately ended up clearing it when I got really lucky with a lewdness build that let me 4 shot the final encounter.

I really like this, never thought there was a hidden gem and also might be the best card based h-rpgm games i ever played

I think the art is gorgeous, fitting to the theme. Music also very good, the gameplay is kind of repetitive but not too long either, lewdness build is too OP

An h-game that is actually a game. I had a lot of fun. Don't expect to take your dick out and jerk off; you have to actually use your little brain to play this game or you'll not get any scenes.

The only downside is the speed is a bit slow...You can use Cheat Engine to 2x speed it, but there will be some glitches that Crash to Desktop your game.

It's fine, if flawed. It's very slow and repetitive; a run goes up to 100~ encounters, with some of them being events and some being enemies. There are neither 100 enemies nor encounters, maybe sub-twenty of both, so you see a lot of repeats.

Given it's a rogue-like, you are also completely hinged on RNG - in this case, though, given how relatively slow it is (I cannot overstate; 100 encounters.) it's more frustrating then usual. Your run can spiral out of control not because you play badly, but because you played pretty well, got a strategy down, but then got your deck bloated with extra "reward" cards and never got encounters to cull your deck, so you gradually each shit in combat encounters drawing cards your run isn't built for. To put it in perspective a little, if the game had a mandatory (random) stat up option it would be trivally easy, simply by way of avoiding bloat.

As a H-game it isn't all that either. The art is good, the sounds are fair enough, and there's a couple of lewd encounters. However, paradoxically, if you do a lewd run then you encounter the least amount of h-scenes simply because you make everyone jizz their pants with the allure of having a good with you, and any actual sex is the fight going to long and you in serious danger of getting a game over from damage. There's a post-game gallery, though. Still weird to me.

Simple, yet brilliant game.
This game could stand on its own even if you would take out all the naugthy stuff from it.

Gameplay is actualy entertaining.

Only complaint I have is that lots of things are only vaguely explained with no tutorial or at least manual. Half of the info is hidden in random tips. But since part of the game is repeatedly losing, it does not matter that much since you can just try stuff untill you figure out what exactly is going on.
