Unity - Completed - Love of Magic [B1 v1.6.11f] [Droid Productions]

I love this game !
The story is linear but very intriguing and the characters are colorful.
The MC has a real personality and he is proactive which is always good for me.
You can see the progress made by the developer has the story progress (in the writing and in the animations).
The game-play is simple but fun.
All in all this game is awesome !

The only reason why I didn't write a review yet is the fact that no review can do justice when it comes to LOM.

I don't like Unity VNs and free-roaming/sandbox is the only thing I like even less and here we have both. The game is so great that not even those things could sway me away from it.

Droid created an epic story worth of something developed by Obsidian Entertainment or BioWare (while they were still good). Not only that - so-called mini-game here is contagiously fun. We have a great hybrid of RPG and VN and casual gaming - what's not to like?! And, honestly, this is maybe the only adult game here using animations not just for naughty scenes but for truly epic ones.

Not 5 stars - "Love of Magic" deserves 10 stars.

Wow, this game is absolutely superb! Where it really shines is the writing, the world building is excellent and each character brings something different and interesting to the story. For me it compares favorably to the epic fantasy novels I've read.

I like the combat system and had plenty of fun leveling up.

I'm not that attracted to Emily which is a shame with her being the main love interest but there are plenty of other characters to do things with too.

The dev seems to be very hardworking as there's a lot of content to enjoy considering when this was first released.

Overall it's one of the best game I've played and I've played a lot. The creator is a master at ending on a cliffhanger too so you'll find yourself desperate for the next release.

Outstanding story, has me hooked for more. Worldbuilding is top tier and consistent, which is not an easy thing to do.

The poker-esque gameplay is fun and challenging with enough layers to keep the dynamics fresh even for those unfamiliar with poker mechanics.

I have never once reviewed and commented on a game thread but this game is just really good and I think more people should try it. There’s fun, unique gameplay, interesting characters and a well-written storyline. Even if you’re not a fan of cards (not big on poker myself) the game is still enjoyable and will keep you entertained playing for long. I’m sure it’ll only get better as it progresses. Again, keep it up dev

Its ugly and clunky. Does have some content but im just not a fan of the models. The cards minigame isnt bad but again is very clunky. The music is cool, ui is clean and well made but in the end id say skip this one,,

Wow, just wow! I've never played a game with multiple girls and actually felt guilty about cheating on the main girl before... Beautiful story, elegant main relationship. Just wow! The fighting mechanic is great, even if you're not familiar with poker hands (I wasn't), the open-ended 'how you use your time is yours' is absolutely fantastic. I love this game!

Great game. It has an entertaining world and fun characters with plenty of content. The combat gameplay is enjoyable. While there is a bit of grinding for attributes, it is a small fraction of total game time so it doesn't become tedious. The story doesn't leave much room for player choice, but it is engaging. Overall, highly recommended.

Some small ideas for improvement:
Remove the randomness of gains on some activities (e.g. evening pub visits). Make it a deterministic cycle similar to the gym. Avoid tempting players to save scum.
Allow some limited control over gem selection on the path.
Allow some limited ability to seek out more dangerous areas on the path (I'm assuming opponents are currently just level or day based).

Fanfuckingtastic!

4.5/5 IMO (not quite the 5* I gave it YET, but def. deserved more than 4*)

Thought I'd check it out this quickly this afternoon,
it's now gone 4am I COULD NOT STOP playing! I can hardly wait for CH.5!!!

Honestly THE BEST GAME I have played from F95 Zone and I've played A LOT of them!

I love the plot, the storyline, the characters, the humour, the combat mini games, the blended mythologies, the setting, the renders & art style,, the sexy elements (of course), the design and UI. The few animations are good and look forward to the addition of more.

Honestly Love of Magic stands up well against a lot more mainstream titles (for context I've been gaming for almost 40 years and have played hundreds and hundreds of games from many genres, on many platforms).

Made me genuinely LOL several times, especially the last University Lecturer we meet in Act 4

Apologies for this review turning into a novel, but felt Love of Magic warranted a FULL review.

Don't get me wrong though, the game isn't perfect;

• I really wish their were a lot more random encounters, throughout the city & especially Elsewhere.
• I wish there were more options/routes/positions during the sexual encounters rather than just a single, set path with optional steps and/or repeats.
• The Scottish brogue feels under used and so many common Scottish phrases are entirely absent (though I guess that might to make it more accessible to all)
• More optional, repeatable encounters with the various characters during the later (sword training) phase to break up the reading, sword practise & work grind would be great.
• I would love to see more clothing & gift options for my awesome companions (they ALL deserve presents!!)
• Would be great to be able to play Poker as another income option. Whether it's as a proper game, simplified mini-game, a short scene (i.e. joining a game, then leaving with calculated wins/loses based on stats)
• There are a few bugs in the UI, especially with notifications getting stuck onscreen during & after the mini games.

I get that the game is still being developed and that perhaps some of my ideas/wishes might already be in the pipeline (or not at all and never gonna happen!).

I imagine that it must be REALLY difficult deciding whether, and when, to further refine existing content or work on adding new content or to focus on the main storyline.

It's clear that A LOT of love, dedication, talent and artistry has already been poured into this game and I wholeheartedly hope this continues for a long time to come!

I will definitely be following it's development and am highly anticipating further chapters.

Congrats Droid Productions, Love of Magic has the potential to be something truly exceptional

Persona in Britain

Game is heavily focused on story. The story is light years ahead of most other lewd games. It involves magic and mythology in modern era Britain. The characters are fun, the poker-minigame is fun, and overall, really great direction with development.

I took off a star, because as a story-based game, the story has an issue with buildup. Good mystery follows a simple model of tease - buildup - payoff. The tease of the game is phenomenal, the payoff is good, but the buildup quality feels erratic.

In games where lewdness is the main selling point, buildup is optional because you want to get to the payoff quickly. But in a game like this where the story is the main selling point, good buildup is mandatory.

Solid game, great content, but story is still one step below masterclass level.

Fantastic game....

The models are cute.. and the story is really good.

The only thing.. could have been more animated sex scenes.
almost all were just still pictures with text description.

But.. besides that. I really enjoyed it.. played it til I finnished it.

and the end of Act 4. made me tear up.. =)

Starts off a bit slow and grindy, but it starts to make sense quickly. The writing is excellent. The premise isn't all that interesting at first glance, but then it develops into a pretty awesome power fantasy. Well-written erotic scenes, good humor, and there's a lot of it.

Not my cup of tea at all, using cards for combat is just silly and so far the "sex" has been mediocre at best. Some nice models for the girls sadly the male MC uses an all to often face model and one that i just don´t like. Can´t really recommend this game.

A good VN but not one u choose if u want a quickie. Also, the plot sorta forces u to focus on one girl as main love interest but the restriction is easily overcome

the graphics are standard and the battle system is creative, but I don't really feel any curiosity towards the worldbuilding and plot. We're here for that right?

I'm going to go ahead and give this game 5/5... just for the dev.

This would have been a solid 4/5. Some of the pictures aren't my taste. I love the card mechanics. HATE beyond words the time limit.

But this dev... this dev gives a shit. The enthusiasm and care for their project just shows. And, less than 5 hours after I posted a concern, the dev concisely and clearly stated their position.

Also the attention to detail is remarkable. Great dialogue. Great fantasy setting. Great job in general.

On a personal note my 20 year old monitor finally died, so I got a new one. I'm sure the card games will be easier now that I'm not "Is that a 3?... or an 8?".

One of the best erotic games I've played. Although the erotic part isn't really why I like this game so much.

No, the main reason why I like this game so much is because it has an epic, amazingly well-written story-line with some equally well-written characters (Katie is my favorite) and dialogue. I also like the combat element a lot.

This is one of those rare games worth replaying.

I'm already supporting several adult game creators on Patreon and wasn't really planning on supporting another one, but this is so freakin' good that I've become a $5,- supporter.

An adult game with an actually decent story line and use of mythology. One of the few I've played more for the plot than the sexy times though those moments are also done very well here. Attractive female character models and a interesting combat system. Did I mention the good plot?

Great story, interesting combat loop, good dialogue and characters with distinct personalities. If you're here exclusively for porn maybe not your cup of tea (although don't worry there is some), but otherwise give it a try.

Overall fantastic game. The story is particularly good - it could be an actual book, and I wouldn't be surprised if the dev published the full story as a novel in the future. The renders and sex scenes are also well done, and the quality of animations has gone from good to excellent within a few months. I'm very excited to see where Droid takes the game in the future.
