Ren'Py - Completed - Mist [v1.0.3] [395games]

Very enjoyable graphic style, many variations of poses.
But imho: a little bit long and nature of the characters became similar (submissive).
Overall, it's really good game. Definitely worth a try.

Pros

• High quality production on visuals, audio.
• Lot of effort into the scenes and general writing.
• Good dialogue distinction.

Cons

• Pacing gets worse further into the game, taking too long to explain concepts.
• Gameplay is passable but highly unnecessary.

Summary
Great game with a lot of love put into it, a decent storyline.
---spoilers below---

So I've seen some people complain about the grind for this game and it's been a while since I played it, but I don't remember it being ridiculously annoying. The game is billed as a survival game, and exploring is fairly easy. The actions don't take nearly as long as combat in any RPG maker game, so I wouldn't consider this a huge detractor.

Again, it's been a while since I played this game through, but this along with Four Elements Trainer was the first longer game that I played all the way through. Visuals are consistently quality, the story is kinda cool, and the writing overall is significantly less cringey than 90% of the other porn games I've played. The fact that sounds and music are included to add ambience and immersion is a cherry on top.

In summary, it's a pretty cool story with consistent levels of quality in visuals, sound design, and writing. Little bit of grind, but I think that adds to a game like this. If you like the screenshots, you'll probably like the game.

ALL of it is just dan outta den
My only wish is simply for more. wish there was more milk, so little of that. You KNOW a games good when you wish for more, looking for the next fix of character scenes.
10/10

this is my first non-visual-novel game that has actually felt worthwhile. it's really cool to actually have a gamified story that's interesting and fun. phenomenal game, girls aside. girls are nice too though

Mist v1.0.3 Completed

Gameplay:
I think the Gameplay is the weakest part of this game.
The game basically consists of walking around and gathering materials and food, which wouldn´t be such a bad thing if there wasn´t a meter that is filling up constantly, when you walk around and the next monster appears when it´s full, which can be incredibly annoying.
The fighting feels way too repetitive because of it.

There is also a stamina limit in the game that goes down after every path you take, and the game just puts you back at home when it´s empty, which can be really infuriating when you are in big areas.
You can level up your stamina, but it's never enough and it´s really annoying.

Story:
I really like the story, but I think the grindy Gameplay hurts the game and the story, because you kinda lose interest in it.
This game has cutscenes which is pretty cool.

Characters/Models:
The Characters look pretty decent and have more of an animated look.
But I don´t agree with the loli tag, because none of them look like one.
I don't feel that their personalities are really that interesting.

Sex Scenes:
The Sex Scenes are hit-and-miss and i´m missing the “faster” option and other sex position options, but the scenes are animated, which is pretty good.
The huge amount of creampies feels too repetitive.

I was kinda torn between giving this game a 3 or 4, because I really like the story and the render, but the gameplay really pulls it down.
I´ve played the game twice. First time without a cheat mod, which I didn´t fully completed and the second playthrough with a cheat mod, which was a better playing experience, but the sheer amount of expeditions where you travel back and forth and have to repeat fight after fight every 10 seconds is even too repetitive for me to give this game 4 Stars and i´m not sure how this game gets so many 5 Stars really.

Version: v1.0.3

Ey mate, i came here for the smooth looking 3D models and creepy looking demon girl, but stayed until the end for the story, it does not revolutionized story telling, but it sure as hell does it well.
All is good with this game, the models, animation, waifus, story and its tempo, if there is one thing i should mention, then its the fact that this "game" doesnt have any gameplay, its just more of a kinetic novel with some light grinding.

Overall a great game, if you are looking for a great story.

I loved every second of this game, the story is fantastic and the game itself has great progression. Every character is lovable with great back story and development. The game itself looks amazing and the cinematic shots go well with the game and aren't a distraction from any part.

Things I liked:
1. The story kept me engaged for four days. At first I thought it'd be typical "it's the end of the world so let's fuck"-type VN but I was surprised to find how well written it was.
2. Some of the best renders and animations I've seen .
3. Loveable characters, each of them has well defined personality.
4. Even though there is not much gameplay, still whatever it offers is well balanced. Didn't need to grind at all.

Thing's that could be improved:
1. The writing had a little inconsistency at certain points but that would be nitpicking.

Best girl : MIA <3

The "gaming" part of the game is totally pontless, story and characters are not so engaging, the art is peculiar, characters look somewhat like dolls but you can get used to it, the fetishes and animations are on pont.
Not a bad game but there's definitely better.
The "loli" tag is probably not appropriate.

Amazing game, I've played a lot of games on this website and the only game story wise I've liked more than this one is being a dik, but that game story wise is one of my fav of all time and not just for adult games.

This game emotionally compels you to care about the characters rather than them just being horny holes to fill. The level of detail of the world and even the combat for an adult game is impressive.

The only downside is the grapics of the characters you are fucking is pretty low compaired to some of the other games out there which is the only reason I haven't given it 5 stars.

It's been ages since a games story and visuals sucked me in
I really can't wait to see what this amazing developer is doing in this next game , which already looks amazing .

Story: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
enjoyable engrossing dialogue that made me care about each character
Characters : ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
The 3D models are shapely alluring and unique which really set the game apart from boring DAZ models and ripped game assets

3D cutscenes and sprites done well for once! Along with a compelling concept and interesting story, fun characters, gameplay that's sufficiently involved and engaging without being grindy, this game was a pleasure to play from start to finish.

This was a whole lot better than I was expecting it to be, to be honest. This game is also pretty long which I very much enjoy.

Graphics
I really liked the visuals of this game. The art style of the ladies is unique to these sorts of games and has become something that I enjoy. Each love interest had her own style and each was unique and stood out from the others. A very good amount of variety to the ladies. A lot of these VN's can have women that are very similar in game but also similar when compared to women in other games. I'm glad that 395 chose a distinct art style to differentiate this VN from others.

Gameplay
Pretty complex as far as VN's go. The bulk of the game play is clicking through dialogue and making choices but the stuff that isn't normal VN conventions are pretty well done. The combat is engaging enough and lasts about as long as it needs to. When combat seems to be dragging on and taking a while, you will then soon become stronger and be able to progress faster. It was pretty interesting too. I enjoyed the choice aspect of combat and weighing different outcomes. Just enough complexity to keep from being stale but still simple enough that it never became frustrating.

Story
Pretty good I think. A few VN cliches do come up but those are now kind of ubiquitous to VN's. MC gets stranded and is a chosen one. Women show up after a set amount of time and the MC grows closer to them. An over simplification but the meat of the story sets this apart from most other games. Each character has a distinct personality and treats the MC in a manner believable to their character. Some sweet moments to be had. There's a lot of character and humanity in the different people you will meet.

9/10
very good visuals. Animations are very good.
Story is sweet and meaningful.
Not boring. Keeps you engaged.

From the beginning it didn't catch my attention, I mean the cover and the images I saw I thought I wouldn't like it, but after playing it I must say it was excellent

THE GOOD
At first I thought it was a boring story, but as I progressed I liked the plot much more. The characters are good too, their personalities are different, so it doesn't feel repetitive. the map is fine. The +18 scenes seem good to me and it has a considerable number of scenes for the content it has. The plot of the story, its development/enemies/goals all seem good to me.

THE BAD

There are certain +18 scenes, which I think are unjustified, that is, I particularly like that a +18 scene has a background and justifies why that scene came, but here are some that do not have a justification for their scene . On the other hand, I think I'm not sure, there is 1 character whose sprite seems to be unfinished compared to the others that look more detailed. I feel that certain abilities that some characters have are not justified due to their past, that is, just because 1 person knew someone who was a nuclear physicist, suddenly they have all the knowledge about physics... Well, they are negative things that are more related to the plot line than anything else in the game.

Summary:
o Character Design/Visual: 4.5/5
o Background music/sound: 5/5
o Plot: 4.7/5
o Animation: 5/5
o +18 Scenes: 4/5
o Gameplay: 5/5
Interface: 5/5

I think it's a game worth playing and that I would recommend, the plot hooks you and it has a good amount of +18 content (which is the most important thing in this type of game) equivalent to what it has in text. It's entertaining, in many ways.

A survival game with a fun gameplay-loop, a thematic story, slick animations and more.


Gameplay is a big attraction here. You set out on adventures by clicking on the map in your room. In these adventures you'll earn EXP, hunt and explore. It's elegantly and thematically done without feeling like a grind.

Story is some Lovecraft/Resident Evil craziness (in a good way). Without spoiling too much, you'll huddle up in a cabin which acts as your headquarters from which you try to deal with the mystery mist.

Dialog gets my only criticism (but it's not bad to the point it affects scoring). Grammar is fine, but at times it has a simple forwardness while also overexplaining things.

Sex is as well animated as the story bits. Yes, a lot in the game is animated and its buttery smooth too!


All things together I see why this has received all its praise. The production value is so high that it doesn't even need the porn to earn a recommendation.

i have followed this game since 0.7 and this is easily the best erotic game i have played, the story was 10/10, the sex was 10/10, the action was 10/10, the setting was 10/10. this was the best game it can be and i am excited for the next game

Wow, what a ride this was, there is nothing that I can write that isn't already mentioned in other reviews but I'll do it anyways cause this deserves more than only 5 stars, this deserves a certificate framed and hanged in the devs room.

Renders: 5/5 ⭐
Very unique, not sure what is used to render this but it looks very refreshing and different from any other game.

Animations: 6/5 ⭐
What the hell is this, it goes above and beyond some triple A games, super smooth and insane attention to detail, no clipping or anything that looks weird.

Story: 5/5 ⭐
Interesting story, I know few games already went with the stranded in a forest style story, but this still felt unique and amazing in it's own way, the whole animations and art style of the game just fits perfectly for a fantasy horror world.

Gameplay: 5/5 ⭐
A bit of open world exploration kind of game, has all quest logs in one page unlike some other games where you have to click 10 times to know what to do next, the combat is very new and special it does not feel like a renpy game at all.

Sounds: 5/5 ⭐
This is almost like watching a movie, everything has sounds, footsteps, monsters, both action music and calm music...etc

This wraps up my review, I hope to see more from the dev in the future and I'll be looking forward to it.

one of the best quality games on the site, really great videos, and girls with different personalities, not varied fetishes, and not varied sexual scenes as i the last few scenes kind of disappointed me that we this exact same thing already.
its not a game you play for incest content, the sister is cute and all, but it just added flavor to the game that's all.
The girls belong to 4 different body types so you will get the loli and you will get the milf and two inbetweeners.
My Favorite was the goddess of course.

Version: 1.0.3[Completed]

What an excellent game!!!

Pros:

- The story is well brought and developed, even if it does not revolutionize its genre at all

- The sandbox is very simple to use but effective

- The gameplay is really nice, with some cool QTE

- The characters are almost all charming, the main antagonist is missing something, but the rest is really good

- H-scenes and animations were very correct in the first versions of the game, but in these last versions the content is top quality

- The content is proportional to the life of the game, nice balance on this side

Cons:

- The exploration is a bit too linear, except for the grind and the story there is not much to see

- We would have liked to have more, the game is so good

- No avoidable content for some fetish(pregrant sex, incest), it's really details, but I know that some people are not too fond of this kind of content and maybe would have liked to avoid it. Personally, it doesn't bother me more than that

- Harem made of 4 beautiful women, a 5th or 6th would not be refused

Conclusion

A game of a rare quality that kept all its promises, a good post-apocalyptic story, a harem of great quality, a solid gameplay, scenes and very erotic moments, what to say more, the game has a very correct duration with only 3 years of development.
A quality work that did not drag on like many projects on this forum.

A big thank you to 395games_Rathieu and all those who contributed to the project (developer, donors, musician, all people who worked on it) <3
