RPGM - Completed - Lust Epidemic [v1.0] [NLT Media]

The beginning of something huge...
The game have simple moves and contains variety of gameplay (and s*x scenes). The story gives something new and keep us heated and the characters are all enigmatic and fascinating ! A classic one to play !

Great pacing
Great setting
Great atmosphere
Great "surprises"
Great scenarios

A few of the models are definitely to "mom" tier for me but overall its a good story and good experience so i can overlook it.

It is the game that put NLT on the map and one of the main girls is definitely returning in the next game. (Symphony of the Serpent)

Easy recommend.

maybe it was good for its time, or I'm just the odd one out but this game is way overrated. the actual content does not make up for the amount of menial tasks you have to do. the amount of dialogue and random tasks is worse than big brother or any other popular grindfests I've playeed.

The game that started it all. I think this one is honestly one of the best ones in the series, the sex scenes are not anything like the new ones. They aren't bad but older for sure but still have some charm to them.

What made this game good was the atmosphere. Unlike practically all the new games, this one was entirely done in one location, the atmosphere was amazing. Dripping in mystery and puzzles. I think while the expansion in sequels to other areas makes the games feel bigger, this one did such a good job to make one location work really well.

I would relate it to the first resident evil. There is some excitement to figure out the whole location, see where the story goes, you have no idea about anything so everything is new. Where as in the newer games you have some idea.

The characters are pretty well done, the clashes between parties feels more realistic, regular people with real goals and fears. Instead of dodging cults and situations that should definitely get you killed you are arguing and blackmailing and exposing lies. Comes across as a competent murder mystery game.

The sequels are all good but this one did story and atmosphere the best.

It is okay, I will spoil some things so if you want to see the story first I would recommend trying it out, the game is average but the story can be fun.





The music is generic but is fitting expect for the music in sex scenes I didn´t like them at all they were annoying.

The gameplay is a simple point and click but still fun I liked collecting the collectible even if the rewards for them weren´t worth it, the kamasutra pages give sex scenes without dialogue which are just boring, and the coins give you outfits which girls can wear during those kamasutra sex scenes they looked boring. There were also some etra sex scenes with random girls in the elevator if you fullfill certain conditions but I didn´t care about them. The rest of the gameplay especially the puzzles could be a lot better because the hint system is bad for them.


The sex scenes which aren´t from the kamasutra aren´t good either, the animations look robotic, the dirty talk isn´t that good, and the situations are all very similar there are way too many threesomes which all feel the same and end the same the end is always one girl gets cum inside her pussy, ass or mouth and then the other girl eats it from her pussy or ass, that was way too overused. There are also way too little women 6 aren´t enough for that many sex scenes that feel the same.

The models look okay I didn´t find any girl attrative but they weren´t horrible, except some faces they look weird, and the MC just looks awful, he looks very average not interesting at all, his clothes are also boring, and his voice is very annoying, I couldn´t stand him.

The charaters, themselves are okay but not good.
The MC as I said didn´t like him his personality was also annoying.
Valerie I didn´t care about.
Amanda I disliked I didn´t care about her dominate girls in a threesome and make them feel like sluts fetish she was way too tryhard and her dominant personality felt just cringe.
Amber annyoing nothing else.
Katherine was kinda cute but only a little.
Elizabeth and Violet boring.
Simon okay at first but was too much of a joke character in the end.
Andy was pretty good, he even had a bit of a arc.
Buddie I liked him.
Mendel I wish his "crazy" transformation was better he was just kinda boring, his model didn´t help very average.
The private investigator was wasted potential, I don´t even remember his name, he didn´t do anything, looked too similar too mendel and his death had no impact.
Father parker, wasn´t threatning just silly he also was way too underused.
Tillman was good I liked him as a villain and his death was funny.


The story wasn´t that special but I still had fun and wanted to see it to the end. But the game could have been a lot better.

I enjoyed playing this wonderful, unique and fun game years ago. Now, with the completion of the third game, I wanted to replay the entire series and write a review for all of them. Of course, with %100 completetion

This was the first game I started playing adult games. I enjoyed it the same way I did when I first played it. Setting, atmosphere, story... Everything is amazing. It has a story with plenty of plot twists that makes you wonder what will happen next. Sometimes scary and sometimes quite goofy. The music, sounds and cutscenes are all on point and fit the atmosphere very well.

Gameplay.. Definitely my favorite gameplay style. Okay.. When I play RPGM games, I sometimes enjoy combat or different gameplay styles, but this is definitely my favorite. Exploring the map, collecting things, solving puzzles, pondering... I enjoyed every minute of it. Definitely for me~

Scenes and art. There's no need to talk about it. Absolutely every single one of them is hot and wonderfully made. Fuck.. in fact, to be honest, it was much better than watching porn or hentai stuff! There is no need to even mention the characters. Milfs, teens.. They're all hotter than each other. There are lot of scenes~ In-game scenes aside, and the scenes you access by collecting kamasutra pages specific to each character, there is even a sex chamber you can access towards the end of the game!

Perfect, perfect, perfect! I enjoyed every minute of it. There's even quite a lot things I haven't mentioned yet. I can't wait to play the next game. Everyone should try this masterpiece!

ToN was one of the first games that caught my eye when I found this world of adult games, but when I realized it was actually the follow-up to an earlier game, I decided to play Lust Epidemic first. I was not overly entertained.

It’s not to say that Lust Endemic is a bad game - it is not. It has a massive amount of content, is polished to the level of actual commercial games and it attempts to be more than a standard adult visual novel. The game is built with the RPGM engine, and it reminds me of a pixelated 80’s point-and-click adventure in a retro-nostalgic way, and it works reasonably well.

The game consists of picking up stuff, using said stuff and talking to people to progress the story and unlocking new areas. My first issue was that there is not much logic behind what you have to do, talking to someone might open conversation options with a different character, with only the barest clue (or none) as to why these occurrences are linked. Items are randomly distributed across the map, the use of which often only becomes apparent much later. Maybe I did not spend enough effort trying to figure things out and there is an underlying logic to it all, but for a casual playthrough you basically need a walkthrough, which is not great for a porn game trying to be more than a wank enabler.

However, that could be overlooked, I play most of these games with a walkthrough in any case, but what did spoil my enjoyment was the girls. There are four main LI’s - three of them are MILFs - and the ILF part was seriously doubtful to me, as I did not find any of them particularly attractive. All four fall under the “massive tits and ass category”, and while I don’t find the look distasteful in moderation, I don’t find it appealing enough to carry an entire porn game. Two young, slender girls are introduced later in the game, but they are very much side characters with not much content, and by that time I was thoroughly tired of the four main LI’s. That being said, the renders and animations are of a high quality, so there is that.

To summarize, Lust Epidemic is a highly polished game with a massive amount of content and a reasonably entertaining story. The game part needs a walkthrough for casual (most?) gamers, while the porn sections suffer from lack of variety. If you have a fetish for older MILFs with big boobs and asses, this might very well be the game for you. As for me, there were too many things I did not like to award anything more than an average rating.

I had started playing it long back but didn't finish it then and then I started playing TON and before finishing it I should play this one so that I could get the story points as well. The game is nice but I didn't like RPGM games but TON was nice so I played this, TON is a perfect one so coming back to this older title with lower-quality animation seems a little downer so taking away one star but enjoyed this one.

This game is literally just Where's Waldo with sex scenes mixed in. The hint system is absolutely required, but even that is too vague to be helpful sometimes.

If you are playing this for the incest, be patient because it takes like 10-12 hrs just to have sex with mom character. Sex scenes are pretty simple, nothing special. Art is uninspired. I didn't read all of the dialogue because there is simply way too much of it. This game is essentially a virtual novel, given that you don't get to make any real decisions. After 14 hrs on this save, I am only 84% completed, but unsure if it is worth continuing at this point due to being very bored.

If you want a game with many different and unique sex scenes, this is NOT the game for you. If you like to read A LOT or enjoy where's waldo, you will love this game.

This review is for v1.0

TLDR: too much walking, not enough wanking.

I really don't know why so many people have rated this game so highly, since 95% of the game is walking around, 4% is doing fetch quests, and then the last 1% is short, mid tier sexy content.

Like, the models are good, even though I literally spent most of the early game trying to figure out who each woman was since they all look the fucking same, and the animations are good, but literally every sex scene is over in a matter of a few clicks and you have no control over anything.

Really, this game is a Visual Novel with extra steps...a lot of extra steps...way too many extra steps to the point that you will spend literal hours just walking from one place to the next.

The MC is...eh, forgettable really.
He isn't the one who made the magic fuck juice that gets everyone horny, that's a half pint dweeb that for some reason keeps cooperating with us in our pursuit to fuck everyone in the building, even though he is also trying to fuck everything that moves.
All of the male characters are really just bland and forgettable.

The most used thing in the entire game is honestly the crystal ball, because there are no indicators as to where to go next, no map icons telling where characters are, and no personal choice on what to do next to the point that if this game has the sandbox tag, it should get flagged for false advertisement.

The only redeeming quality of this game is the character models, but they can't pick up the amount of slack the rest of this game leaves.

I recommend picking up a full save and just checking out the gallery, because everything is bland, predictable, and forgettable with way too much time being consumed to progress things.

I don't usually play this type of game format, but I think this game made me quite enjoyable. The level progression is reasonable, and linear game play made it less of a concern to lose out on content while also worrying about the overall game progression. The main character seems a bit too naive but ultimately did not impact my enjoyment of it

Another brilliant game by NLT.
IMHO my favorite Developer ATM.
The character design is first class.
Ms Bancroft is gorgeous and Valerie is the hottest MILF I've played with in a long while!
Plot is solid but game hints are tad annoying. Why so cryptic.
Notwithstanding, art is beautiful and animations are hot.
Highly recommend.

Lust Epidemic is a high production rpgm adventure game with a lot of scenes with its 3D models spaced in a very long story that requires plenty of reading and moving around the map. The story is exceedingly lengthy and for that matter playing it without a proper guide can be not only tortuous, but also can lead you to miss a lot of collectibles that are valuable for extra scenes. Be aware, in this game you can miss content, so a detailed walkthrough is advised from the get go, which is sad considering that the game is very fun and the need for external help diminishes its value. Always important, the relationship spiral is very well done and paced here, with a good number of girls to interact and develop, focusing on quality over quantity. As an adventure game made in rpg maker bugs are inevitable, even years later I faced one that blocked me from collecting all the scenes. Some fail safe pos game would be nice to avoid such nuisances. Another point of bother, at least in the first hours in the game, is how the protagonist is portrayed as a thirsty wimp. After ten or so remarks, you will get bored of this personality, but eventually he surpasses this problem. Everything else in the game is remarkably well made, the developers put a lot of effort to make this adventure game a top of its genre. The scenes are many and varied, with plenty of differences in them to make each valuable. The game has a focus on mature women, so older faces will be your main attraction for a long period of time, but that too has its exceptions. Lust Epidemic is most certainly a recommend from me, even if it took me much more hours than your usual game to finish it.

Loved this game. Really high quality considering it was put out in 2016. Even after 8 years it's still a pretty fun game to play. Pretty good balance of sex scenes and intrigue in the story. This is the beginning of a great series of games by NLT.

I tried very hard to finish, but at some point I got a bug in the save file. I didn't do something I was supposed to do in the right order and my progress stopped completely. But there was no way I could have realized this while I was playing because the game doesn't tell you that, so it was completely the game's fault. If you ignore the bugs in the game, it's an average game overall. The story and animations weren't bad but you have no control over the story and this linear progression combined with the long gameplay makes you both tired and bored.

Having finished this game, I must confess: I hate RPGM. I admit it, I hate this engine and that kind of gameplay.
But Lust Epidemic has given me very entertaining hours, and it has made me doubt if it's the engine, or the games I've tried so far were hogwash.

That said, why 4 stars?
Well, because it hooks a lot, and its narrative is very correct.
It's true that the characters aren't the best of the medium, hell, I'd say they're even average, and the main character is an asshole.

But everything is told with such a good rhythm, that when you progress little by little through East State University, the game is very grateful to you and rewards you with enough scenes.

But enough of praising this work.
Again, why 4 stars?
Because, in my opinion, the ending sucks.
It destroys the entire point of the scene that precedes it, and half butchers the character development of the cast.

But, despite that, it's a very enjoyable game.
It lasted me about 10/11 hours quietly and completing pretty much everything.

In a while, I'll be back with Treasure of Nadia, I'm looking forward to see how this trilogy continues.

4 stars very well deserved.

Lust Epidemic is better than TGO, worse than ToN, but still great and the start of my favorite series. I played this one last and it was great to see the start of these characters and to fill in the gaps where I was unaware of the context in the alter titles.

This game is weirdly nostalgic to me. The music strikes a chord in my soul even though it's stock music. The story is more interesting than most. It's effectively a lewd who-done-it murder mystery with supernatural elements, and this game properly kickstarted the NLT universe. NLT had already made comics and games that were linked before but not on this scale. This game kind of links the NLT comics with a whole new world of demons and curses. I don't think anyone who read NLT comics or played their games before LE knew where the story would go. It has taken a completely different turn since LE. The game isn't perfect. All NLT games are extremely campy and cliche, but they are kind of endearing in a way, because the story is not always there. There is some gameplay to back it up; puzzles, collectibles, secrets. It's not groundbreaking but it's more fun than most porn games. Brad is a forgettable dick, nothing interesting. The girls are a bit more interesting because they have more to do with the story. Amber is a reporter and serves as a bit of a secondary antagonist in the beginning. Amanda is Brad's crush and a stone cold bitch. Katherine is the innocent nun who becomes naughty. Valerie is the queen. Elizabeth and Violet are rape victims with weird quirks. The characters don't experience any real arcs. Amber just kind of sides with the good guys. Amanda is constantly dom and cruel except to Valerie. Valerie turns out to be a snake who helped Andy with the love potion epidemic but literally faces no consequences for it. She even keeps a potion at the end, and the group creates a company to produce the POTIONS!!! People die in this game including the detective and Mendel indirectly because of the problems caused by the love potions. That should be an indicator to stay away from those potions but NO! It's literally the opposite of an arc. They just kind of doubled down on Valerie. Katherine becomes a whore. That is the closest to an arc in this game. Andy is also spineless, Simon is really stupid, Buddy is the only who is actually standup, Mendel is weird and crazy, the detective had no personality besides being a detective, Tillman is a murderer, Father Parker is a demon. I love this game but damn is it rough around the edges. It definetly aint got the finess but it got the style. The animations are dated but still pretty good. The characters are partially voiced which is rare in porn games especially for the time. The gameplay is fun. The characters are stupid, but the story is kind of fun. Also a good porn game for spooktober.

I remember this as my very first experience with the adult game genre, and to be honest I liked it a lot but beware, you need to actually play the game to get what you are looking for.

Story: 4 Solid Bananas out of 5
I like that "mistery mist"on this game, the location in which most of the game takes place feels appropiate to deliver the story, and it can serve as a good excuse for some weird stuff happening to some characters.
Events befall at a good tempo, a bit slow at first but its delivered constantly.

Characters: 4 Solid Bananas out of 5
They look good enough. Two of the main female characters are very, very well proportioned, if you get my meaning, but they both share that pedantic look, but its nothing a love potion cant fix.
MC, Brad, its not a hero at all, he will take every and all chances to "take good care" of the innocent ladies he´s supposed to protect.
He is the one your gf tells you not to worry about...But most of us are not here for him anyway.
Simon is so unbelievably dumb...He definitely deserves whats coming for him.

Mechanics: 3 Almost-Hard bananas out of 5
This is not a Visual Novel, its a game, and as such you need to actually play it to get to what you are looking for *wink wink*
You have puzzles, so your brain might have to work a bit. There´s a "hint" button so you shouldnt get stuck, but some items combinations might require external help because they are not logical.
You´ll have to walk a lot, so make yourself a favor and activate the Dash-Always option.
To resume: You´ll need to actually play the game, so have patience and take your time.

Content: 5 Adamant-Hard bananas out of 5
There´s a lot to witness here, you wont have a choice on story events, but theres a galleria with unlockable content which gives you a lot to choose from.

Ending: 4 Solid Bananas out of 5
There´s only one route, a rewarding one, but if you are looking for realism, this is not the game for you.
Plus, Simon finds his place in the world.

Even if "RPGM" games are not as popular as your usual VN, you´ll find a pretty solid game here, and a great start for a trilogy.

I couldn't bring myself to care about any of the characters. It's just... boring, like yeah it's a point and click adventure... but the story is just... meh. I found myself using the hint feature more and more to go through the motions but it's just suffers the most common RPGM problem: So, Much. Walking.
