Bloody brilliant.
I’ve always been a sucker for hand-drawn 2DCGs, and I absolutely adore CyanCapsule’s art style. The characters are so cute and expressive. The backgrounds and settings of the events have a ton of detail put into them as well. And the NSFW scenes are excellent with a variety of sexy poses, expressions, positions, etc.
The story, while nothing terribly unique or special, is well executed with clear and concise writing, realistic and snappy dialogue, and a wholesome, lighthearted tone that anyone can enjoy. The relationships between MC and the other characters feel very organic and progress in a natural way even at a quick pace, especially his relationship with Emelie. While the main plot is currently just slice of life scenarios, I’ve personally never had an issue with that kind of approach as long as the writing itself is entertaining and there’s a commitment to continuity. I do wonder if there will eventually be some sort of driving force that leads to a conclusion of the story.
This is a pretty linear game, which may turn some folks off. Me personally, I prefer it this way! I’ve never been big on sandboxes in adult games; I much prefer to have the story given to me directly without a whole lot of “go here, click this” disguised as “gameplay”. There are some choices here and there that actually affect some things and events so it’s not completely kinetic. Also, I experienced ZERO bugs or glitches! Woo!
The most recent update made it very clear that this will be a game where you will be able to have plenty of lewd fun with not just Emelie, but the other lovely ladies of Hog Haven as well. The only downside of this game is that it takes a while for new releases, but with the game’s quality being the way it is, I can understand it.
I honestly can’t wait to see what the future of this project holds, but there’s already a lot here to enjoy if you want to check it out now.
