Others - Completed - Monster Girl Quest 1-3 [Final] [Torotoro Resistance]

Motherfucking classic. The art is insane (maybe not in terms of quality, which is just very good, but insane in general). The story is amusingly, surprisingly above average, being an erotic game. Enemies range from lovely to disgusting (in a disturbingly arousing way), some of them having enough personality and likability to become archetypes of their own.

It's also way longer than average for erotic games, yet it's easy (maybe "not-relentless" would be a better adjective) enough to keep through with just one hand, if you know what I mean. And it manages to keep fresh in themes and characters until the very end, even if the mechanics are mostly the same all along (with some surprises in the fighting strategies and the powers you can learn, as you progress).

I think this game has been extremely influential in everything that came after in erotic video games and hentai in general. The peak of erotic video games if you ask me.

Well after years of just lurking on this site i finally made an account, and the first review i would like to make is on this childhood masterpiece.

Ahh i remember when i was still an apprentice gooner, i was searching for some good monster girls games and i found this one, i was curious since everybody was praising it.

I readed the synopsis of it and as a man who loves good stories and lore i was already hooked up, so i decide to try it, and man this was really good from beginning to end, i was even crying at the end, well anyway, you dind't read this to see me rambling, im not very good with writting so i will make it short and simple.


(The Story: S++)
Its suuuuperrr long wich i really like, the whole game if you dont speedrun it and take the time to read could take 30+ hours or more, i will give a llttle taste of what awaits in this beautiful story.

Our protagonist luka is naive and innocent his goals/motivations are simple, make peace and coexist worldwide with the monster girls a reality, of course its not gonna be easy, at the beggining of his journey its wholesome, but after a while, its get darker and darker, learning how much monster girls can be brutal to humans or even themselfs for that matter...,

Of course that does'nt stop our hero in his track to make the world a better place determined to make his dream a reality. with making friends along the way to share his burden.

(The Characters: S++)

Nothing much to say, you get easely attached to them, every single one of them has their struggles, and a good personality, even the side-ones.

(The Gameplay : A+)

Its straight foward, its a visual novel pretty much not the best but its good none the less i would understand why people would like it unlike RPGM maker, the turn by turn combat even that i like it, it can be a bit very repetitive sometimes, you gotta use your brain a little to figure the weakness of each monster girl and the right combos, but its not too complex if its not your first time, on very hard its another matter tho, good luck with that lol.

(The Arts: S+)

Its excellent, even tho i really dont like the fact there is a lottt of different artstyles, they are pretty cute apart from a few so it gets a pass, weirdly enough the huge amount of different artstyles works really fine on the style of the game they blend in together perfectly compare to other games, wich is a plus.

(The Music/Audio: A++)

The audio is pretty good nothing else to say, the music on the other end is really fine even tho they are simple, they set up the embience nicely when its for the right scene, a few musics are S+ tier for sure.

(The Scenes: S++)

There is a hugeee amount of them wich is totally worth it, it has even a pretty good amount of variations for each monster girls wich is huge, so you wont be dissapointed, they can be pretty long too, with some good description of whats happening, of course the only bother is they are not animated but you cant ask the imposible with such a huge amount of scenes.

(The Kinks: S++)

Its mainly reverse rape and shota wich is already a S++ alone for me, but there is a ton of others fetish for everyone else to enjoy even the most degenerates of us.

(The Grammar: S++)

Even tho im not english i dind't see nothing bad or out of the ordinary or maybe im blind i dont know.

(The Interactivity: A++)

Well you cant really interact that much with the monster girls like having dates or more events or even touch them in different areas or customization, stuff like that, apart from the different sex events when you choose certain option on combat, but that would also be impossible with the amount of work that would be needed.

Well that's pretty much it, i dind't expect to put so much effort into a review, suprising of me not gonna lie,for the review rank system some how you may know i used it from Metal Gear for those who are also curious here's how it works

(F/E/D/C/B/A/A+/A++/S/S+/S++)

I will probably use it for future reviews, so yeah i really recommand this game for monster girls and story lovers for sure, it really marked me, i will remember this game forever, thank you Torotoro Resistance for making it.

(Final Score: S++)

Thank you for taking the time of reading this review hope you liked it.

Having played this series back when it was the newest thing on the block, I can safely say that while the game engine/visual novel-like gameplay can seem a little dated, this game is as much a must-play now as it was then. Sure, the content in the H scenes spans all spectrum of fetishes for better AND for worse. But you learn to turn your brain off for the 30-ish seconds it takes to hold skip through whatever isn't your fetish. Which helps with the fact that all scenes need to be "viewed" to 100% the encyclopedia.

Tl;dr,
The good

• A plot compelling enough that even without the porn I'd play it.
• Spans nearly every kind of fetish there is. Every single encounter has at least 1 H-scene, with a little something for everyone across all three parts.
• A bevvy of fan-made sidestories and content.

The bad

• The dated engine and coding means trying to transfer your save between parts is a little clunky. Also you can only save your game at preset points of the dialogue, though each one is distinctly marked.
• Spans nearly every kind of fetish there is. Even the trash ones.
• Parts 2 and 3 of the game can become a little bit of trial-and-error and/or RNG when it comes to certain abilities/attack patterns. The game makes it work, but I understand that it's not for everyone.

The debatable

• Did I mention that this spans nearly every kind of fetish there is, for better and for worse?

If you're the kind of person that play h games for the 'plot' then you might like this, even if you take the h part, this game still has solid storytelling and worldbuilding, some people might not like the art because it was worked by various artists though, but overall for me solid 9/10

Is the game good? Fuck yes. Do I recommend it? Abso-fucking-lutely.

Amazing. That's how I would describe all 3 games. The game does start off slow and a bit clichéd with the whole Goddess telling our MC Luka that he's the hero that's going to save the world from the evil Monster Lord and all the evil monsters but then one fateful day our hero stumbled upon a monster who is not so evil as the people zealously believe them to be.

From then on, it subverts the template the story was heading in and all for the better. The side quests you go through do tend to follow certain tropes like having to fight a final boss right away or the bad guys really being good guys but the journey is still entertaining because of 2 things: Luka and Alice.

Our hero and heroine are like water and oil, a human worshipping the Goddess Ilias who believes all monsters to be evil and a monster that has a story, wants and dreams of her much like any other human. Although vastly different, they both learn that they have much in common and that's part of what makes their journey so entertaining.

Throughout their travels, they meet all kinds of characters with quests that are well-written, becoming even better as you go through Parts 1 to 3. These characters are all well made too with the recurring ones having more of their stories told that are compelling. I really don't want to name names but characters like Chrome, Amira and her friends, and Erubetie have made me blind away tears for different kinds of reasons (iykyk) because of how good they were.

Now comes the gameplay which I believe is the trilogy's weakest part. That's not to say I didn't enjoy it because I definitely did. I just believe that it is weakest part and that's because this is a website with a mainly Western audience. Where's the problem with that?

The thing is, I grew up playing JRPGs on the PS1 so turn-based RPG or RPGMaker games are never an issue with me but the same can't be said for others. Other people are so turned off with turn-based combat that no matter how good a game is, they just won't give it a chance and I am hoping that this review of mine can convince those people that they should give the game a shot regardless.

Yes, the game is a turn-based RPG. Yes, the combat does get repetitive especially whenever you learn from text prompts during battle that enemies have patterns. Yes, there is some bullshit RNG factor in battle.

Even with all of that, I believe that the story, its characters and their quests still outweigh how stupid the combat can be. I don't know if the download links here include the walkthrough for each fight for the whole trilogy but where I originally downloaded the game from, it included a text file detailing how each fights go and the moves you should make.

So the bottom line is, this is one of the best games I've ever played. And that's not, "This is one of the best H-Games I've played". No, this is on the list of ALL games I've played.

Go ahead and play it, you're seriously missing out. Some of the scenes may have fetishes that are not up your alley but they are still worth seeing because of how well made they are.

Skip to the last paragraph if you just wanna know if you should play the game or not

I'll set the record straight, just as most people say the combat in this game isn't good, being too linear and relying too much on the same redundant solutions/sets of moves especially within chapter 2 and a select few fights in chapter 3. Not only that, the story is also very simple and I simply don't get the appraise for this game's narrative due to its sheer simplicity. Along with that, the CGs for some of the monster girls simply aren't my thing and some of the art can be repulsive for a decent amount of normal human beings. The final thing I'll mention is the lack of significance shown to how some monster girls act, especially when some are flat out fatal and are simply disregarded to be "Ohhhh but that's just the way they are!!!" however...

This doesn't mean it is an abhorrent experience by any means, in fact the simplicity works within its favor and some of the characters are quite nice with the writing being carried by a certain someone's characterization.

Now, let me explain, the simplicity in this game works simply because it doesn't fuck anything up and neither does it lose out too much on opportunity, allowing for the plot to flow easily which leads to less things being fucked.

You may be thinking that that may be incredibly mundane until you realize that the narrative is focused on our boy Luka, which is where the writing in this entire game shines. Luka being established as a naive boy with ambitions packed with the exploration of his proper motive and how his heroism is shaped throughout the story... mash that with some of the few times the game is serious with Luka and Alice alone having a proper conversation, it can't be denied that Luka himself is one of the main driving forces in wanting to play through MGQ. Every conflict is given meaning as you journey through with Luka, clearly developing a more experienced perception and portraying the theme of heroism through every conflict.

Even when most characters simply serve to be monster girls to seal, some of the less focused characters are still good too. Most notable being most of the heavenly knights, Promestein, Ilias and Laplace (Even with her brief screentime). All of them having at least something in store to add to the story, whether it be through their backstories, depth or impact.

And despite what I said about the game's gameplay, it is still manageable and at least semi-enjoyable to get through as a pseudo-puzzle (Assuming you don't get an RNG fight).

Now, onto ranking the chapters based off of things [ Overall | Gameplay | Writing ]
Chapter 1 [ 3rd | 2nd | 3rd ]
Chapter 2 [ 2nd | 3rd | 1st ]
Chapter 3 [ 1st | 1st | 2nd ]

Chapter 1 primarily serves as an introductory chapter and showcases most of the Ilias continent and some parts of the Sentora continent, apart from a few Luka-Alice dialogues, Alice's proper introduction, Magistea village and the fact that there wasn't anything tedious here, there really isn't anything very special about this chapter.

Chapter 2... Oh chapter 2, how I loath and love it so much. Containing some really good and really bad fights, primarily dictated through either how much luck, annoying move sequences or redundancy is put within the fights. Despite this, this chapter contains a good focus on Luka and his heroism which is the shining parts of the story, no need for me to explain anything else for why I have it at 1st in terms of its story.

Chapter 3 ties everything together and despite not having any more development from Luka, the narrative is then put as the main focus and boy does the narrative deliver. With everything tying together, interesting interactions between characters who had almost no screentime and with everything moving due to the angels, it sets a nice and profound performance which Black Alice would approve at her tea party. Though the real reason this was put here was that there is only a grand total of ONE tedious fight in this entire chapter, which is sister Lamia with her world-breaking and judgement bringing NUISANCE of artificial spirit summons. Though other than that, I'd say it's perfectly fine and the most consistent quality of combat throughout the entire game. After such conflicts, a simple conclusion of happily ever after and Alice being pregnant of Luka's children ensues.

While it is a very simple conclusion, it was a simple yet great and fitting conclusion for a game such as this.

So... with that out of the way, do I recommend this game? If you can tolerate the tedious portions of combat in any way, shape or form, then yes. This game isn't extraordinary in regards to its quality in gameplay and writing, often times it gets a bit too lighthearted but it doesn't get into your nerves since the story can still be taken decently seriously.

One of the best games on this site imo. Good and long story + gameplay. Love the turn based combat in this game and how it is always a new in a way in each fight, since they add a twist in encounters.

It is a story about a silly child with a weak peepee but big heart, who questioned his own religion for the sake of coexistence with monsters, who due to countless challenges and battles became a real respectable hero and saved the world by slaying the great and evil creature.

Though the story more or less linear, it has enough humor and surprises to keep you interested.

What about the horny part? ...it's insanely diverse. Not only this game has monsterpedia with explanations of monsters you've beaten, it will also let you re-fight them and watch lose scenes anytime you want. And there are a lot of H-scenes, with insane many many fetishes. But nothing is animated and sounds are mega simple, so, turn on your imagination!

All in all, I recommend it to people who like to read violent fairy tales with an ecchi element in them.

Dunno what I should say about this game really.
Monster Girl Quest is one of the best H Games I've played, and I didn't even play it for the H content, and it has plenty. I was hooked to the story, it's very good and really well told. If you want to give it a chance, do it for the plot.

While there were aspects about it I did not like or that I found to be uncomfortable with, it is a really fantastic game and storyline. I played it for three days straight on my days off just so I could see how it ended. The extras are great as well and include access to every single monster girl, and there are hundreds of them. Honestly the story was so good I was just scrolling through the sex scenes to unlock them and then get on with the storyline and talking to everyone in the game.

Highly recommended 5 start experience.

I have played this years ago since i didnt review it yet i will give it one.
The phrase came for the"plot" stayed for the plot illustrate the game for me since after a while even though the H scenes are too much for me I just go on with the story since the dialougue are somewhat not too short and not too long(btw if you are reading before playing, play for first especially blind).

After playing through you will notice that you will get engaged in the story you will get attached to the mc, his feelings in the events, and the upcoming hype that is coming.

TLDR: Just play it especially blind playthrough and also if you can play it in one sitting?

One of the best stories ever written, I don't understand japans obsession with shota, ntr, rape, etc but the fact that the game shows an what if end scenario for every fight must take a lot of work, really liked the love story between the main character and the demon lord.

Just remember that I haven't rated this masterpiece yet.

It's essentially a VN but with turn based combat. 99% of the H - content here are just monster girls reverse rape. If that's not your thing, it can be avoided if you just don't lose.

What makes it good is definitely the story itself. For a heavily fetishized game, it really tells some good a story about coexistent, moral value, romance, journey and more.

Monster girl quest is a very good visual novel, one that helped spark one of my favorite tags in adult games. Monster girls.

Let me tell you right now, that I recommend this title wholeheartedly, and in a world where nothing is truly unique or original anymore, this is pretty close to it. The main (and possibly the only real) problem MGQ has, it's the combat, and its RNG element. (Oh sweet RNG, how I need, but also don't want to notice thee).

Let me illustrate: Whether you play on normal or hard, it's possible to fight the same battle 10 times using the exact same sequence of movements and lose, but on the 11th try, you win comfortably (changing nothing), because the enemy decided to do something that benefits you. Any sense of accomplishment, that is due in a videogame combat system is not present here.

The boss before the last one, had my blood pressure spiking (you laugh at people who smash their screens until the day comes...), and I'm pretty sure I lost that fight 20 or 30 times, waiting for the "right alignment of the stars."
There's other things like little voice acting (there's some in H-scenes), the production values being limited or the mechanical nature of the quest objectives (do 3 things move on to the next area), but complaints against the very nature of the title, bare less weight in my opinion. I always want more, changing something to something else isn't fair.

The rest is all pretty good:

- A different approach to H-scenes - Today not so impressive, (Shota and "reverse-rape" go hand in hand) in 2011 very much so.

- Actual monster girls - Don't get me started on this 1. If you think Vanilla from Nekopara (Nekopara is the greatest thing ever) counts as a monster girl, you are WRONG. It's not furries, it's not nekomimi or kemonomimi, and it's not your imaginary girlfriend with accessories. Monster girls!!! There's quite a few good examples here.

"The good thing about monster girls is that the monster part is on the outside" - Me, adapted from yet another jaded cynic on the internet.

- Memorable characters, with some depth, personal agenda, and recognizable quirks. It feels somewhat close to some of the great VN's like Muramasa (I'm close to sinning saying that). What I mean by that is that the villains, are simply individuals driven by their own desires, and the good guys quickly understand that notions of heroism are usually blocked, by the logistics of trying to make everyone happy. Ilyas, Alice, "the elite 4", the protagonist etc... Most characters with some screen time, end up showing some sort of evolution. That's a strong positive.

- The premise - The hero is on a journey to kill the monster lord, while also advocating coexistence between humans and monsters, and the "side kick" is an incredibly powerful monster girl. Everywhere you go there's a lot of gray, and if you ask me, stories like that are the ones worth reading. There's still some good and evil here, but absolute notions are almost non-existent. Even god, just needs a slap on the wrist, and hear the word NO.

- Alice and the protagonist - I know, I know, it's the "tsundere" with a twist, but said twist is excellent. You won't find a lot of romance that progresses like this, in ANY visual novel. I'm tempted to insert some spoilers, but I won't. They work really well together (tender moments, funny moments, violent moments), and like I said before, they evolve through the story (and influence each other in noticeable ways), but at their core they stay coherent, especially the protagonist, whose entire life story is kicked around like a football. Very impressive.

I will wrap up by saying, that the combat system ended up ruining my experience, but this is still nowhere close to a mixed bag. It's a very good VN and, I'd give the "trilogy" a high 7 or a low 8 out of 10. If you like JRPGS do yourself a favor and play MONSTER GIRL QUEST PARADOX, after this one. If you become a fan of monster girls (as well you should) try MONSTER GIRL 1000 ( the spirit is there).

Pros:

• Incredible narrative and storytelling.
• Consistent character development and growth across the trilogy.
• Over hundreds of different kinds of monmusu.
• Large cast of artist specializing in different styles.
• Extreme variety of niche kinks rarely found elsewhere.
• Voice acting for major character H scenes.
• Puzzle base combat with good gameplay-lore integration
• Fully functional encyclopedia acting as cg,scene,post,sprite replay gallery.
• Ridiculous achievements with even wilder character reactions when attempted in-game.
• Creative use of open source soundtracks.

Cons:

• Lack of of official translation.

How does this game not have more reviews!?

This was one of my earliest AVNs and honestly, still one of my favourites!
I remember when this was being developed and at first just thought "oh, lose and get the fap scenes, easy!"; but then I got to reading the story and I just stopped caring about losing!

The plot is really well done and although there are some obvious points, it's still really fun and has some endearing characters.

Anyone who wants a game that will last more than a day or two and hasn't played this is missing out!

One of the best h-games around. good story, good music, decent artwork, great worldbuilding. I don't think there's been a game out there that has captured the same feelings while fapping.

Paradox looks like a good sequel to this and if people like this, you should check out Monster girl quest paradox.

1/5
Bad visual style of h-scenes, boring fightings, no animations

This game has longest fights and most boring ones

Quality of h-art is poor

I didn't previously make a review on this game because I was lazy, but after thinking about it again after years, I decided why not. So simply put, this game might possibly be the best game I've ever played for the story alone, and this isn't just limited to porn games either.

It's worth noting that ironically, I download a game for the porn but don't actively look for it if that makes sense. While at first I did come to the game for the "plot", I genuinely enjoyed and stayed for the plot. In any case as, I don't usually play porn games exclusively for the porn, and while this is still ultimately a porn game, I will be rating it more as if it were a stand-alone game without porn. The few scenes I did experience were good though.

To start with the gameplay, it isn't the best; it isn't the worst, but I did find it enjoyable at the very least. It's simple, easy to understand, but I especially did like how the game isn't just about stat checking and playing well (although you do have to play well for the most part) where you had to pay attention to the details of the battle in order to find the next correct move.

As for the music, I wouldn't say it's the best soundtrack I'd ever heard either, but it is iconic for the most part. I haven't really heard the soundtrack from this game in any other games or place with 1 or 2 exceptions, and for the most part, I enjoy the music. Sitenno/The Four Heavenly Knights is considered the best song in the game for most, me included, but I don't necessarily hate any song in the game with the exception of the song that plays in Chrome's haunted house because it's creepy. I kind of lied earlier when I said that I didn't hear any soundtrack songs, but it's because this game also has musical references from popular songs like Dance of the Knights, Chopin's Nocturne op.9 No.2, and Bach's English Suite in G Minor Gavotte 1, and they don't count.

To limit spoilers, I won't go too much into the actual contents of the story, but it's good, and I can easily say that this has the best story of any other porn game that I've played. The game could've been unfun and have average music, but I would still easily give the game a 5/5 from the story alone. It's certainly unique, and while other things have been kind of similar, this is quite possibly the best execution of the idea. The story and world building is slow but interesting, and the interactions between the characters are fun and enjoyable. You can really see that your actions actually mattered in the world and that's something that's hard to notice in many games. I also almost forgot, but all the characters are well designed, and they're also unique like the story itself. Of course, with a good plot, it has many themes that are reasonable, thought-out (for the most part), and something that I agree with today. Overall, the game as a whole is a great experience and is something that I would most certainly recommend to someone who is new to porn games.

Edit: I accidentally submitted the review before I was actually done with it.

Greatest of all time reverse rape monster girl game. The plot in this changed the way I view the world
The vore scenes and stuff arent really my taste but I love so many of the characters and the moral conundrums that out protagonist is put through.
