Unity - Completed - Love of Magic [B2 v1.2.6] [Droid Productions]

Another example of a game where I wish I could do half stars. I really enjoyed this experience. The setting was interesting and with just enough tying it down that I didn't feel like the world was coming off overly silly, but really the character interactions were king and even during what felt like a perhaps slightly dragged out final book with more downtime than events I was very pleased by all the connections and dialogue I was having with everyone.

I also appreciated the attention to the harem dynamic which I find far too often lacking and will always advocate for more of. This may have been backed by sorcery shenanigans but having an top girl who helps keep the gears of the gangly mess of the harem machine going is a solid foundation and Emily worked very well in this role. Bella has a special place in my heart though and I do wish I got to spoil her more.

If I could I would have given 4.5 out of 5 because really the only thing I was sort of disappointed by was what I perceived to be a running out of steam kind of feeling by the time we got however far into book 3. If I had to nitpick anything more just for possible future considerations then the quests could have been worded more exactly or broken up into chunks so that I did not feel the need to run around checking locations every time change when really it was just a day marker that had no listing on the calendar and I wasn't going to miss an event by accident. I can't begin to count how many saves I made trying to make sure I would not miss anything with Katie when the quest seemed to imply that I myself needed to find a good time to talk with her and not just that I was waiting for the game to decide when a good time was going to come up.

In the grand scheme of things very few issues for what was overall a very enjoyable narrative. Will be supporting where I can and I look forward to more from this creator in the future.

Played all three parts, began to find it less and less interesting starting from the second part, and honestly found the third part a bit of a slog, raced through the last couple hours of gametime.

It's certainly got some fun moments, there are regular epic parts interspersed with some pretty grindy gameplay. I think for me personally I did not find the main LI Emily very attractive so that obviously had a negative impact. Honestly most of the side girls are way hotter. Molly and Jenny are best girls

The sex scenes are all very short and pretty dull. And you have a smokeshow like Chloe in your game why so few scenes with her!? Crazy.

That being said I enjoyed the game enough to get through it, and bought Morningstar to support the dev. There's a lot of effort and ambition here for sure

Here's an idea for Droid's next game, a female protag road trip game starring Molly and Jenny getting up to all sorts of naughty adventures. Think like a porny Thelma and Louise. You can have that one for free. Your welcome

Even though I have a few issues with this visual novel, the stellar writing alone is enough for me to give it five stars. The characters were all very interesting and distinct, although more time getting to know the separate races and pantheons would have been welcome. My strongest complaint is that the main character is kind of a buffoon without any tact. He is definitely the braun to Emily's brain and it was clear that his anger issues and rash behavior were intentional in portraying him as a young god with more responsibility than he is ready for.. there is really no resolution to it beyond Emily being his anchor. Relying on another to keep you from becoming a tyrannical psychopath is not a very healthy solution to these issues. The story makes it clear that the MC would be out of control without her but there was no real payoff to this. It's also messed up that the ending has the gods requiring worship to maintain their powers. That's going to make a fucked up society worth exploring in a story. Some gods wouldn't fair well in the public spotlight and others would whore themselves out in a competition for votes. People would be expecting things for their vote.

Not many games are made like this one. The storyline is phenomenal with so much theory crafting involved, a mix of many stories and subtle easter eggs to other games, movies, and books. One of the few games thatll remain at the top of my list.

One of the few games that managed to feel like a "real game" without being western non- RPG maker game, also huge props for excellent writing of both the characters and mythos, good even on the cake department.

I honestly don't understand such a high rating of this game. Almost every aspect of it is anecdotally bad.
Just for transparency: I finished ~80% of Book 1, couldn't anymore, deleted it altogether. So, maybe it becomes better later, but I couldn't see the point in continuing.

Good:
1) Interesting setting. Contemporary + medieval style with some gods and other references. Overall nice atmosphere.
2) Fine music
3) Native linux client (thank you, devs!)

Bad:
1) Writing. It has every bad smell imaginable. God-powered MC (Naruto on steroids + no development), deus ex machinas everywhere, random details or events contributing nothing to the story, while having little to no development of actual characters. And many more I couldn't remember at this point.
2) Romantic relationship. Again, horribly written. Every girl just wants to bang you or 'has' to bang you for whatever reason because.. because. The whole 'I have one girl that I love, and all others I just bang' plot is beyond ridiculous. And your 'loved', 'destined' one is totally ok with that. While simultaneously being a virgin who lets you after seeing you 5 times. And all other girls know that, and still want to bang you. It's just awful and makes no sense whatsoever.
3) Visuals. They are pretty outdated. Animations in H-scenes are either non-existent or lame at best. LIs are mid or worse.
4) Combat. Ooooh, the infamous combat mechanic. I honestly enjoyed it for the first few times, but later, oh boy.. You either lower the difficulty, which turns it into a time-waste, or you struggle for 5-20 minutes on each fight, because you have a horrible hand and have to replay it from save. And ideally, you have to do this almost every fucking in-game day!
5) Sandbox. I don't have any particular feelings about sandbox mechanics overall: I played a number of sandbox games, some I enjoyed, some -- I didn't. But this game takes it a step further into bs territory with TIMED sandbox. You have a limited amount of days, and without a walkthrough, you have absolutely no idea when some event might just end, and you have to replay this whole mess of a game just to get the scene or a dialogue. So, you either have to follow some guide precisely, or spend a few days devising an optimal strategy on every action you can take. And what for? This is not something worth so much effort.

Overall, I'm giving this game two stars only because it presents as a finished creation, and it is clear that some love is put into it. Pretty interesting ideas, but majorly failed execution. I hope the developers learn from it, because they have the potential.

One of the best stories of any of the many games I've encountered!
The game play was fun, minimal grind and the story absolutely captivating. if not already on steam it should be either as 3 separate books / volumes or rolled into one. looking forward to any future projects from Droid Productions

One of the best story based games I've played in this site. Every Book had great story lines with good scenes to back it up. Though the dialog box and choice selection placement could have been better, the gameplay and story overshadows it well. Usually I don't prefer unity games because of its size and gameplay structure but this game made me reconsider it and now I'm playing some unity games on regular as well.

It gets redundant relatively fast, the general plot, style and graphics are good, but the pacing is very slow. There are a lot of sections and locations and it feels like many of them are an afterthought.

Amazing story. I acutally enjoyed the story way more than the sex scenes. I wish the story continues, but a story must have an end. Damn.

There are bugs in the game, but it doesn't really affect the game play that much, I was able to bypass issues with save/load function in most of the time.

Have seen a lot of people saying this falls off in the third book, but I think this is overly generous. It really falls off halfway through the first book as the erotic content slows to a trickle and the story becomes a convoluted mess. The main plot has no sense of pacing or measured progression, considering there are three games what kind of fool levels up the main character to more than godlike power halfway through the first book? New characters and plot points are introduced and face into irrelevance before anything interesting happens.

They seem very proud of the "poker" game mechanic but it's an absolute mess with no real interactivity - you get a randomly drawn hand and there's generally one clear "best" move to make, and strategising is near useless as your opponents play on the same board, so anything you do to improve it for later turns also improves it for your opponent and is mostly pointless. It's quite telling how the boss fights all end up with you stalling for a few turns until some deus ex machina resolves the fight for you.

Erotic content is OK but there's relatively little of it, the camera angles aren't good, there are relatively few renders for each scene, and the first few models look like someone went too far with the sliders because they have weird proportions (Katie's face and Emily's body in particular)

Ok so I'm giving this game 5 stars after all, but those 5 stars may as well all be asterisks.

The positives:

• Fun magic system (like seriously, this is a NSFW game where certain parts of the gameplay are actual fun and the creator really did a good job creating a fun minigame)
• The characters and their dynamics are a lot of fun
• The game, especially in the first two books, gives you a great mix of freedom and guidance with the calendar system
• There Is A LOT of very high-quality content
• The music slaps
• The major action set pieces are fun

All of this is so much above what you could expect from any game on this site. Ironically I think this strength is also what makes some of the things I perceived to be flaws so jaring.

The negatives

• Book three's story. I did not like that at all, it felt so bad to do everything you did before and then end up like that (that's the most I can write without outright spoiling)
• Some sex scenes can be quite dull. The characters are all great but the animation sometimes does not match.
• Personal point: I really didn't like the MC's design, this game has so many interesting characters and we get to play as the lames one, a bit of a shame.
• Plot lines going nowhere. I don't know why or how but there are so many plot hreads that end up not mattering at all, or at least they feel like it, especially, once again, in book three.

Still, I highly recommend anyone try this game, book 1 at least. You don't see this high of a quality a lot here.

i really liked the start because there aren't a lot of games with an urban fantasy setting. however, things got a little out of hand at the end. i also think think that there were a lot of unanswered questions and mysteries especially act iii with the whole multiple timelines thing.
another thing that kinda disappointed me was the whole harem aspect. in a sense, you only truly love Emily so it is a fake harem. there really isn't a lot of sexual content outside of with her.

Great game, fun gameplay, good character designs I played when first came out and replayed again, so I could refresh before getting into the new chapters. Highly reccomend. Never rated game on here before but think this should be higher, but need to give more characters to submit my 5 star rating.

What to say i am here since first part of story and i am not gonna lie seeing this complete is amazing thing you know that sadly many games goes onhold or hiatus forever you cant play game ever again because of theres no update but with this yess game is complete not only that story characters scenes amazing too especially for me story i like stories like this.

First of all, this is quite a monumental game with a rich story and detailed universe, not your typical AVN, and as such it is somewhat hard and unfair to compare it to other games. From the start it hooks you up with an interesting story, pretty girls, and excellent quality of production overall. I am really impressed by the scope of the story and the quality of writing, it feels almost like reliving an ancient saga. However, I felt that the pacing could have been better and the dramatic arc could have been better built. There are no worthy opponents in the second part of the game, so levelling up and collecting points becomes somewhat pointless. Nevertheless, I feel this game deserves 5 stars and a massive respect for the author.

I like this type is game and story itself not bad at all, but kinda made up much. Main hero, thinks he god and so on.. kinda feels like it's superhuman genre, not fantasy...
Android version still got some bugs... I even not sure if it's complete. But game quite long, what is cool

a vn so good it had me skipping the porn towards the end. lovable characters, humorous moments aplenty, i couldn't ask for much more. while only book 1 has new game plus at the writing of this review i will certainly replay all 3 books once they all have it

This is actually really good. Book 2 is somewhat monotonous, which is something to be expected when tackling the open-world VN, but the first book and the last one are excellent. Overall, this is a real gem due to its storytelling, taking 'the harem' premise seriously, and giving even the most boring concepts, such as using different dimensions, a fine and heartfelt touch.

Play it. It might not be your particular cup of tea, but this is a good story and an amazing achievement. All hail Droid Productions!

Amazing story with actual game play and a bit of strategy! I personally loved it, and highly recommend anyone give this game a shot.

Character count is stupid, like really stupid. I am not going to spoil the game chatting about it, it is just a good story. Surely that's 200.
