VN - Ren'Py - Myth of Slayer [Ch.9] [Oldcat]

I was surprised to see game not just has a good renders and good H scenes but also has very good story. The more I play game becomes more intriguing and every update it gets better and better.

I really loved playing each update and thanks to dev and good luck with the game!

Great game, if you're a fan of Solo Leveling I highly recommend it!
Its approach is unique, not just a 1:1 copy of the popular manwha. The girls designs and personalities are great, and the protagonist doesn't feel like just another plain lucky and st*pid guy.

Version Reviewed: Chapter 8

Overall Rating: 7/10

A decent AVN that borrows heavily from Solo Leveling’s concept but isn't living upto its potential.

Detailed Review

Character Design: 8/10
Characters are hot, but they have that standard Honey Select look, more like polished dolls than humans.

Renders and Animations: 6/10
Visuals and animations are serviceable but nothing special. They do the job, but you won’t find any shots that truly stand out or impress.

H-Scenes: 7/10
Typical Honey Select animations. Newer scenes show improvement, and the poses are decent but are a bit too short.

Story: 7/10
The premise is what hooked me: Solo Leveling-style world with gates, hunters/slayers, a ranking system, and an MC growing stronger through combat. But after eight chapters, the story has barely progressed. Thankfully, it finally seems to be picking up, and there’s real potential if done right.

Writing: 6/10
Easily the weakest part. There’s a lot of redundant text, inner thoughts and dialogue that could be trimmed down. Spelling and grammatical mistakes are also common and every 3rd line starts with "Then let's" which is becoming irritating.


Choices & Playability: 8/10
This is straightforward linear AVN. There are no sandbox/ grindy elements. Choices mainly influence relationship points and scene unlocks rather than story direction. Simple and clean gameplay loop, but not much replayability.

I really wanted to like this game, but story-wise it’s only average at best. The first sex scene was one of the worst I’ve seen—not only poorly implemented but also cheap and with no emotion, as if it was added just to tick a box. I had high hopes for this game, but it’s not worth investing time in since it’s clear it won’t improve.

The game features an excellent story with well-developed, compelling characters that truly enhance the overall experience. The plot is impressively crafted, full of unexpected twists and emotional depth that keep players engaged from beginning to end

Great game, I’m surprised I hadn’t discovered it earlier. Definitely deserves a place in my top 10: engaging story, interesting and diverse characters, and good renders. The only downsides is that the body models look too similar, and LIs are too accessible, like they are 30+ and already divorced)

Great game, the content is great, the rendering and animation are really fluid, keep up the good work, I hope the next update will be released soon,

The models of the girls are great! Beautiful women, the author did a good job designing them/choosing them

Good intro, world and character building. Likable and cliched characters. The only problem i have so far is the plot seems a little weak and generic, and the LI routes are not very distinct. But since this game is in its early stage, I gave 5 stars just because of its potential. I hope I won't be disappointed in future

Interesting idea, but what really kills this game is that it was written by someone who seems not to really understand how to give characters their own voices. So every character speaks very similarly to every other character, and it's an extremely bland personality that's not very entertaining. Author may by ESL (which is fine), but it shows in the sense that things are written "grammatically correct" but not in a way that anyone would ever really speak.

Renders/animations are alright, but nothing to make this really worth it to be honest. Choices also don't matter besides making explicitly incorrect ones. Unfortunate bcs it is a really solid core idea.

Some cool ideas, but it's very meh as is.

Good stuff
1) Mostly attractive RO's.
2) Power systems cool. Reminds me of a bunch of Isekai's & LN's.

Bad stuff
1) This VN's a KN in disguise. All the choices are right or wrong answer. +1 point or nothing. View scene or skip scene.
2) The protag sucks. He's the usual uninteresting good guy that needs woman to initiate every lewd scene. Zzzzz. Give us some choices that let us shape his personality.
3) Most of the lewd scenes are very short and unsexy. It's such a waste of attractive character models.

A great game if you're into a story inspired by Solo Leveling. It has a good plot, beautiful LIs, and fluid smooth H-scenes.

Pros:
+ Story with a good plot
+ Beautiful LIs (I'm biased towards HS2)
+ Has good BGM and sounds
+ H-scenes (with music and sounds) captures the intimacy of the characters

Cons:
- Grammar. The Dev should find a proofreader to look over dialogue (it's a minor inconvenience)

Hopefully there will be pregnancy implemented in the future and that the harem persists through the end and i won't have to choose just one LI for the ending!

In true Japanese fashion, the girls make annoying-as-fuck vocaliziations during sex. Don't like it? Turning voices off will do nothing. Turning music off will do nothing. Turning sound off will do nothing. Muting everything will do the trick, but I wish I didn't have to.

I have no interest in the slayer story, but the girls are sexy, and that's pretty rare in my opinion, so it's good for something.

Great game, I loved the story although i feel the Dev could do even better. There is a lot of potential. The models are good. I don't understand the low reviews though.. A lot of action, his demon has a nice humor. Having more ladies in the game would be nice too. Keep up the great work Dev and thank you for your game!

It's good. The writing is mediocre. The grammar is often poor, but it still all makes sense. The plot is good. The girls are good, but not great. The sex scenes are good. Overall, I'm enjoying it, but not loving it; it's good.

The game has a good story, but I get the feeling that the story was written by one person and the renders were made by another, the dialogues don't seem to match the scenes well, and that's the game's weak point, it's disappointing to see this happen knowing the game's potential.

I find it hard to believe that the author of the story imagined the scenes as they were presented, as some have already mentioned, the actions, interactions, dialogues and expressions are robotic, if the author cared, he wouldn't present something like this.

Review for Ch.6
I genuinely enjoyed this one. Sure, it’s not the most original concept—you’ve got the classic setup where the MC fights monsters, climbs the rankings, makes friends, and meets love interests along the way. While this type of storyline is becoming more common, and while I do think other games have executed it better, I still find the journey enjoyable when it's done decently—and this one is.

The romance and dialogue are okay. Nothing particularly groundbreaking, but they get the job done. What helps elevate it is the use of thoughts and inner monologue. That layer adds some much-needed emotional tension to the relationships. Without it, the relationships probably wouldn’t feel nearly as engaging.

Now, you might be wondering why I’m giving this four stars when everything sounds just okay. The answer? The animations.

The scenes are genuinely some of the hottest I’ve seen in an AVN. The combination of smooth animation, great facial expressions, fitting sound effects, and background music creates top-tier intimacy. It’s rare to see a game nail the presentation like this, and honestly, it bumped my rating from a 3 to a solid 4.

I'm not a fan of someone else sharing my protag's body, spirit or otherwise. Massively ruined what could've otherwise been a far more enioyable game. I personally would've preferred it if Azazel had imbued MC with his powers while also existing as an entirely separate entity. And I haven't gotten to any sex scenes yet (if there are any at this point), but the thought of MC having sex with Azazel watching in his body is pretty repugnant. One more reason I'd have liked the "separate entity" concept. I won't be able to appreciate any sex scene in this game at all

Sadly, after enjoying "My Real Desire", I think I'm gonna have to pass on finishing this game. Still, I wish the dev good luck because he does do quality work. Sadly I personally cannot rate this game any higher because I simply do not enjoy this sort of scenario. I'll give it an "average" rating to be balanced, because subjectively it'd rate lower for me

While the general idea behind this game is quite good - slayers vs. monsters (some sort of superheroes with different abilities partying up like in an MMORPG, facing off monsters in portals like dungeons with a final boss) - the execution is lacking, sadly.
The story itself is good, but the writing, especially in dialogues, is robotic, no matter what happens at the moment. Long, outdrawn sentences without any emotion and ridiculous statements.
This ruins everything between the characters, sucks out every emotion it tries to generate.
Can't rate this better than a 2/5 overall, would be a 4/5 with proper writing, especially in dialogues.

Update [Ch.6] at the review time.
A solid 4 stars story inspired by Korean Manhwa, it's fun to read but sometime plagued by cliche (I cringed so hard when the MC decided his weapon and cringed even harder at his battle outfit).
Standard HS 2 model and animation so there's nothing much to complain.
I'm looking forward to this game development.

A Cutesy & Engaging AVN That is HUGELY Inspired by Solo Leveling

Another game where you shouldn't come into expecting realism and tons of depth. It's a very cute & wholesome game that features characters with 'childlike' behaviors.

I'm Used to it.

If you have seen Solo Leveling, you'll find that the premise of this game is taken straight out of the show. So much so, that it's probably the media that resembles Solo Leveling the MOST, out of anything. Next time, you go searching for 'anime like Solo leveling' you will find this at top position.

"Bro, copy my work, but don't make it too obvious." Chugong, Author

Buuuut... Is It Any Good?

Yes, and no. I really like it, because it's so adorable & wholesome and makes you gush at some of the childlike qualities of the love interests in this game. And yet, manages to be engaging at times, especially during raids where characters end up dying.
So why the no? Because to anyone else, who likes more realism, depth and maturity in their characters, this is NOT it!

I enjoy a game that plays to it's theme, whether it be wholesome, mature, or in-between. This game hovers at wholesome, all the love interests are nice & and have basically no toxic trait about them. As you can understand, it makes those characters have less depth if you have been hoping to experience the story through a lens of realism.

"Never let bro cook."

The soundtrack in this game is as generic as it gets. If background music meant putting a background character in charge of the songs, then that is exactly what you get. It is the same couple of tunes that keep repeating, and even at appropriate points of the story they fail to enhance the emotional weight of the scene it's serving.

It also has problems with dialogue not being expressive enough. I suspect the developer is not a native speaker, so the dialogue frequently suffers from the 'too punctual,' reading a book in front of the whole class ahh, syndrome.

Mental Health... or Gooning?

There are some gooner games out there that are really fun to play, but once the post-nut clarity hits, I get "Oh. My. God. WHAT THE HELL IS THIS CHEAP SLOP?" and leave with a porn damaged brain.

No porn is without consequences, but when I played this game I left with smiles and laughter, not self-reflection.
Probably 'cause the focus on story is a lot more than the gooning aspect, plus there is absolutely no degeneracy in this game. The characters are typically wholesome, whether it be the romance-able women or the side characters; even the bad guys are not degens.

Reporting For Duty!

Should you play it or not? I am gonna say it again, you fuckers! Say it with me. This game is fucking CUTE as hell! And has an engaging story to boot, albeit the premise is a Solo Leveling ripoff. It feels like a low budget anime, but with heart.
Play it for those reasons, don't play it if you seek yet another game with realism, maturity, and depth as the 'Mr. I Hate Cute Things HYAA!' man that you are.

For me, this a low A-tier game, could be higher in the future if the developer hired/coerced a native speaker into going over the dialogue, and also if the music actually FUCKING slapped, I mean even AI music will be better, less generic and inexpensive compared to it's current sound track.

Good luck to the devs! (,,◕　⋏　◕,,)
