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

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.

As the startup to NLT’s universe as well as one of the first games I ever played from here, Lust Epidemic means a lot to me both figuratively and erotically. The models are hot through and through from the mother figure Valerie to the younger girls Elizabeth and Violet. One thing I love about the girls are that they look like mature women wrinkles, curves and all. Unlike other milf characters the women in this game have an appeal to them that only a true milf fan can love. The scenes with them are hot and I can’t think of a single one I didn’t enjoy.

That being said the gameplay I had to endure was not as enjoyable. I don’t expect much seeing as it is basically a porn game but having to go back and forth from one side of the building to other especially when incorporating the outside and the basement can get tiresome. Small spelling mistakes begin to appear here and there by the end although I was playing with a patch. Having to locate necessary items for quest progression could feel like a chore especially when they were as small as a glimmering light. Sometimes your mouse picks it up and other times your clicking may the same rock for a hundred times while what you really needed was across the screen. But then again some players may find it easier.

My biggest frustration however was the story. You get introduced to this interesting mystery with a dead priest and a case of whodunit. Compelling stuff. Aphrodisiacs litter the building and secrets are being uncovered left and right. Only for a sudden turn to come when this dummy Tillman comes and upends the whole thing. The story goes from being kind of interesting to a fucking joke, in my opinion. Tillman drugs the entire town for some half-brained reason and then when shit comes his way he decided to go kill the PI and incriminate himself even further. It makes no sense and makes me care gene less.

This Tillman and his partner in crime the other school leader decide to work together for whatever reason to kill a girl who has been trapped in a sex dungeon. They do this in order to hide their crimes as though somehow the other eight people there aren’t going to have a clue as to what’s going on. They’re hopped up on aphrodisiacs not knocked out of the fucking planet. Not only that but the priest is still alive and turns out to be a goddamn demon trying to be reborn in the womb of one of the sex slaves. By this point things have gone from crazy to just nonsensical. What was once back room drug deals and school wars just went up to an eleven with lightning fights and blown off heads.

The sex is still great but by this point I’m just skipping to the scenes without even bothering to look at outside dialogue. Bradley gets treated as a hero and he gets the girl(s). The End.

Overall I’d say my favorite characters were Katherine and Amber. Passionate nuns are always a favorite and her being the most attractive was a definite plus. Amber’s growing relationship with Amanda actually grew on me and I smiled when I saw how close they got by the end.

My least favorites were Bradley and Tillman. Bradley goes from knowing how to make dynamite and able to short circuit a door to being the stupidest person in the room and a smidge smarter than Simon. Even with the Serum it somewhat baffles my mind he’s even capable of having sex with any of these hot babes. And if Tillman want in the game it would be a five out of five stars.

Still one of the best games on this site and one that I would without a doubt hundred percent again.

OMG just kill me already!

You start the game thinking that all the nice ratings it has should be because it really is a great game - NOT!

The game just grabs you by your balls and drags you across its plot until you decide that you had enough without seeing a single tity (not even a nipple ) and decide to rip your nuts off.

You go here, there and who knows where searching for what no one knows what and you miss it 46 times, because who cares about the 1 hour you have to play games? Then you find that you had to click on a wall that has nothing to do with the story or anything mentioned before.

If the MC had the same ambition to find a Glock as he has to find random buwshiet, and just press the trigger to shoot his brain off right at the beginning, then maybe I'd give the game a 2/5.

Completed the game 100%!
The Kamasutra pages were the hardest, after that was the floppy disk, I spent so much time walking around in the woods looking for it finally said fuck it then as soon as I passed the ladder it was there.
Overall I love it.

This Game offers captivating animation and an outstanding musical score that greatly enhance the gaming experience. While the story falls short of perfection, it strikes a satisfactory balance between engaging plotlines and missed opportunities. The visuals are stunning, the music is impressive, and although the story could have been stronger, This Game remains an enjoyable and immersive adventure.

Story is basic but interesting, Characters tend to fairly stereotypical but that's exactly what we are looking for in a porno. Sex scenes are fairly repetitive and get dull after a while and the animation style is acceptable but not amazing. The best overall part of the game is the puzzles that are very clearly broadcast its pieces far in advance to make the "eureka" moment that much more satisfying.

TLDR: 2/5 sexual content, 4/5 gameplay

This game is one of my favorites, but it certainly has its pros and cons. While I enjoy this type of game that requires running, thinking, and doing something to complete events and develop relationships with the girls, I find the plot to be too linear.
Furthermore, the lack of true branching options means that the plot remains the same regardless of your choices. The sex scenes, although animated, could benefit from more frames to enhance the visual experience.
I personally found some of the girls' models a bit unattractive, but that's purely subjective and depends on personal taste.
The game's plot is decent, particularly within the domain of adult games. If you're a fan of RPGM games, this is definitely one you shouldn't miss, as it stands as one of the genre's finest representatives.

Anothe Gem like Treasure of Nadia. Models are hot and sexy. Animations are pretty good. Love The stor and gameplay. It was fun. I'd love to see more from these devs. Hope they make more.
Maybe more sequels with these characters and add a few more.

This game is disguised as a shota game because you're an underaged teenager having sex with milf like adults. Although in RPG maker, this game is really a puzzle game where you have to talk and explore and solve puzzles to futher the story and gain access to more porn scenes. The porn scenes are excellent despite playing a clueless teenager. Many kinks and fetishes are present in this game which makes is an excellent playthrough. These fetish include but not limited to: anal, nun, milf, pregnancy, cumswapping, and group sex.

This is a good game. I thoroughly enjoyed the overarching story, as I am a big fan of mysteries. However, there were some silly story beats that were immersion breaking. The characters are all mostly likable as well, at least until the end... My least favorite character is easily the protagonist Brad, and this is mainly because of his inconsistent characterization. He starts off as a loser, which is fine, but then he grows and gets better, until he regresses to being a loser, but then he grows bolder once again, until he abruptly regressed, etc. A lot of the dialogue in this game is awkward too, but I imagine that's because English isn't the developer's first language, so I can excuse that. The inconsistent characterization, however, was annoying.

The women in this game are all absolutely gorgeous. I'm a huge fan of milfs, and I'm also an ass man, so I really enjoyed the designs a lot. There are also a ton of sex scenes in this game, all of which are animated. I particularly enjoyed how much ass stuff there was, particularly the anilingus and facesitting, and I wish more games would have this stuff. Full credit to the developer for adding so many sex scenes and having so much variety in the game.

The gameplay is linear and mostly involves exploring and puzzle solving. In between story beats, you'll generally be traveling around the map trying to find items that will help you solve the particular problem that you're faced with. The puzzles are never too difficult because you'll usually unlock a new room after a story segment which has the items that you need to solve the problem. There is also a hint system in the form of an item that usually tells you where you need to go if you get stuck, which is a great addition. With that being said, there were times where it was unclear what to do next and it was irritating how it felt like you pretty much had to check with the hint system for guidance or else you'll be stuck wandering around the map and talking to everybody.

Because of the issues I had with the game's characters and gameplay, I can't rate this game a full 5 stars. However, it is still one of the best games on this site, especially when it comes to sex scenes, and I highly recommend playing it.

Nicely created scenario with captivating storyline which are fluent and kept me wondering till the end of the game. Character designs are nice and suits their personalities. Also art and scenes are nicely created, i cant say excellent but it nicely covered my expectations. Solid game..

The story keeps you hooked on and the sex scenes are hot, specially if you are into milfs.
The models are almost all big tittied which might be a little repetitive, and sex scenes might get a little repetitive at the end, but overall this is an excellent h-game

This was a good game. I felt like it was a little long but enjoyed the scenes and it never felt too repetitive. I wont play it again but I will play other games made by NLT Media. Overall 4/5 stars from me.
