RPGM - Completed - MYSTIC MINE - The Bladeswoman and the Master of Makutsu [v1.1] [Z-jirushi]

very confusing at first, i dunno why this post is 2025 but i dont think this game fit in with other games out there. no hint or whatsoever, not even quest lead or something. the idea is nice, but the town too small. and lastly its feels like just point and click then sex nothing else, but to get there its quite confusing too and the dialogue is unbearable sometimes.

It's not bad, it's not good. It's average, author didn't really try to make something original, you play as heroine who tries to save her sibling by fighting in boring rpg fights. Additionally there is part of town where you get more interesting fights, but that's the only reason it doesn't deserve 2 stars.

Art style is mostly fine, tho sometimes looks like a quick sketch made by good artist.

Over all either first game of someone or someone wanted to make quick money.

Most content is locked behind annoying dungen fighting and by annoying I don't mean hard, either you grind a lot or you spend 30 minutes at the golem boss fight... and it's not fun fight, you just keep your helth from dropping bellow 1000 while charging mana to use special spells because normal atacks can't be used and hope for the critical, because normal atacks are neglected by his healing.

Okay-ish game, much worse than their previous game ''LoadAgain'' wich is kinda disapointing the price of this one is half of LoadAgain so maybe that's why i guess...?

I could go over every point in depth but to put it simply this game lacks everything LoadAgain did well with the exception that this game has H-attacks and few game over h-scenes.(also town morale system was disapointing too)

No actual narrative, combat is giga bad, characters barely have personality all things the previous game did really well, basically go play LoadAgain if you haven't, i think other unstranslated games from this dev could be really good but this one 100% wasn't the best example.

game is way to short (only like 3 bosses) and you can miss literally all the porn (aside from some very light molesty scenes) unless you try to lose. but its a fun game worth the hour or so of your time zwz

Hello! It's me, Illidan! Today i will review this quite short, grindy, yet pretty good hgame. I will rate this hgame by these categories : Translation, Story, Gameplay, Hscenes.

Let's start!
------------------------------

Translation 4/5 - There is some mistakes in text and "morality" in menu isn't translated, but overally it's ok. Though... Maybe i should have put 3 out of 5? Considering that this hgame doesn't have that much of a text...

Story 3/5 - It's ok story. You have only one goal, you just need to beat monster in the bottom of the dungeon, in order to save Erika. If you expose yourself in the town or do some immoral things, it'll lead to bad consequences. But having around 60 or 56, i think is alright. Dialogues of NPCs are changing, considering how much you progressed in story, or after certain scenes.

Gameplay 2/5 - Just your usual RPGMaker game... You need to grind a lot and often rely on luck. When you get grudge fang, shield for counterattack and retaliation skill, you are basically invincible to physical attacks. Which will allow you to breeze through all bosses. But anyway... You just search for "weaknesses" of enemies and spam them death, that's basically all you do. It's pretty much impossible to get morality of 50, unless you actively and walk into town naked. So you can easily accept requests of blacksmith or armorer

Hscenes 5/5 - Well... I am not fan of these hscenes and some of them, doesn't have much CG. But at least there is a considerable amount of them, for 150mb space game
---------------

Conclusion 4/5 - It's okay game. But i would recommend you to play with Mtool to ease burden of grinding.

It's a good RPG, a very good RPG. The combat is simple but also not grindy, every time you hit a crit you gain an additional move so is very fluid, the story is cute and it's fun.
Buuuut... this is an hentai game, and even if the cutscene are good and i like the artstyle, it have the same problem of hgames of that era: lose2porn. If you play safely you play as a decent rpg, but you need to actively lose to see pornscenes (you just get sexually harassment if you play correctly). In any case you can see all the stuff in the replay screen so you can play without losing that part.
Overall is a good game, i had fun.
