RPGM - Completed - Magical Girl Opal [v1.01 Steam] [Moe Workshop]

I have seen many bad hentai game, but none are as horrendous as this. Those bad games are mostly just barebone and uninspired. More like a visual novel/ doujin forced into a RPG game. They at least deserve a 3*, just a good try on game development.
On the other hand, this game's developer is almost like unintentionally created a totally haphazard game that is akin to stepping on vomit.

First major problem, this game has terrible pacing. You can lose your virginity right away, just 5 mins into the game.
Many interactions in the city can suddenly trigger a H-event that rape you without any hint, warning, or building up. This discourages exploration, disrespects the Player agency, disrespects heroine's virginity and her strength, and undermines the world building. You can get pregnant 10 mins into the game, immediately give birth, and it serves no impact at all to the character, or the story. If it is just this level of inclusion, then honestly, it is better off to just take it out.

Combat is like lightning flashes; you cannot even properly see the animation, damage dealt, or who did what. Before you know it, a flashcard-like victory scene comes right in. Overdramatising and wasting time on just a small mobs fight. When you level up, well, just unceremoniously, a wall of stats increases on UI.
The first dungeon is unusually unfriendly because normally you are given beginner potions, clear direction on how to heal, and how does the combat works for the game, well haha, you don't get any of those. The game just do ease you in into the world and still actively punishes you for exploration.

Character design and colouring is awkward at best, some guys look hot, but weirdly coloured. Haruto, the waiter, is honestly pretty good looking guy. I was liking him quite a bit and this is leagues better than some random bastard aiming for the heroine pussy.
The main vilians line up like some old bishounen anime, trying to charm the girls over the TV screen.

Scaling of the world is out-of-whack, there is this gigantic bathtub, in the house, compared to the character walking sprite. The tilesets in general are just too big compared to them. During the prologue scene, we can see a big cluttering of visual vomit. 3 character images on the screen, heroine Ui image treated as part of the character in the scene, some action going on on the tilemap that you totally cannot see due to the character sprite blocking them. Just what is going on....

This is like some fujoshi coming together made game that doesn't understand what even is game design, pacing, balance, and world-building. Absolute disaster.

How did the game and the team managed to continuously get good sales is totally beyond me. The only reasoning I can think of is their art, and the product description manages to convince people to try.

Verdict: Best to skip this visual vomit, haphazard game. You may have a better time than me if you just avoid all H-event like a plague, and just focus on its main story.
This is such a massive disappointment from the expectation when I read the product description, the art, the opportunities and promises, yet the actual experience tell me an amaterish game that is clumisly put together.
Oh well, at least Hikari is pretty and her evil-fallen form is beautiful. To bad I will never see her properly in the game.

Janky ass Lazy ass Short ass Dumbass Writing Censored ass Half-assed Half-Translated Half a game Half a wank's worth of content


Art is nice I guess.

This game is the epitome of mid.
Not great, but definitely not as bad as some people make it out to be.
The story is pretty cliché: a magical girl who has to save the world but gets corrupted along the way... not much happens really. It’s not the worst either, there are some twists if you dig a little deeper.

Story aside, since there isn’t much to discuss, I’d like to highlight some technical points.

Pros:
• The main story is fully voiced
• A decent variety of sex scenes, considering the game is short (2–4 hrs)
• Losing a fight doesn’t trigger a game over, instead, you get an extra scene and EXP.
• Wide range of fetishes, most with more than one dedicated scene.
• Good CGs

Cons:
• The translation is incomplete.
• The corruption system is broken:
  - She’s referred to as a virgin multiple times, even after becoming a slut.
  - You can max out the Lewd bar within the first 10 minutes (though it can be ignored, so this isn’t a major issue).
• Loading screens when changing locations. bethesda style
• Combat is very unbalanced: it starts off slightly hard but becomes extremely easy very quickly.

Overall, you can still have fun playing this game, just don’t expect an amazing experience.

Okay so, the game is your average rpgmaker game with these tags, however this is made even more lazy, and the game isn't even like half translated

I wouldn't play this yet at the time of this review, maybe when it gets a full translation, even still it's mid and the pregnancy content is lazy as well.

The translation seems to be only 1/3rd done, most of the menus are not translated.

The "Cum" sound they use sounds like 3 men with explosive diarrhea, and they only have a few sounds in this game they reuse.

The art is fine, and the amount of scenes is decent, but I can't in good conscious give this anything above a zero score for the reasons listed above I'm sure the story is great, if I could understand it! And I'm sure they didn't mean to make the cum into a wet fart sound, but it is what it is.

Worst translation ever on the unpatched version with bugs. Text boxes filled with errors and menus left untranslated.

The actual game itself is probably a 3 or 4 out of 5 stars if you have a pregnancy / humiliation fetish, the porn and story are good but the gameplay is kind of an afterthought, even though they gave you a ton of accessory slots in the menu, it's not complex. Oh and this game has decent length with plenty of pretty CG artwork.

As for the actual game portion, the last boss is impossible for a normal human being to beat first time and there are a limited number of the near-busted accessories that you can wear that double your stats. But you do get new game+ and a lot of accessory slots, meaning the game by design wants you to play the full thing at least twice so you can stack the best items. It's lazy.

Reviewed at v1.00


Yeah wanted to give this a fair shot but if I can speedrun maxing out 100 lewdness and make the protag lose her virginity all within 5 minutes of launching the game, just by having her ass spanked 100 times in the 3rd year classroom and then shoplifting at the train station convenience store... then that says enough.

"Just don't do it", well. I didn't intend to. I was just baffled that the spank was 2 lines and a single still image with zero animations, a guy frustrated about something or other which is why he spanks.
Didn't read it the first time because I didn't expect a scene (as there's no transitions, that's the "animations" I am talking about) and nothing was marked, so it was a jumpscare. A jumpscare that turns the magical girl into a magical slut within a minute appearantly.

Despite repeating it, there was zero response from her except "I could use some - no, all the dick in the world right about now" when I opened the stat screen after repeating the spank scene a few more times due to the absurdity of it all.



I'm good. Not even gonna try any more than that. I'll judge this book by its first page. Unless this isn't supposed to happen and some sort of cooldown is supposed to exist. If this is intended - yeah, no thanks.

Shame because previews looked promising as well. Scene wise, that is. Or at the very least, up to my tastes.

However, opening the recollection gallery and browsing through the scenes makes it even worse. 1-3 bland still images for each scene with zero passion behind it. The only thing that has less soul than the character staring at you through her empty blue eyes throughout the game is the scenes.



Also had to use a translation tool because most of the game isn't translated. Epic gaming.
