RPGM - Completed - Nightmare Knight ~Sacred Maiden & Fallen Magic~ [v2.01] [orzPINEz]

Surprisingly good game with great CG, and reasonable corruption mechanic even supported by ingame plot. Combat is fine, but with a bit of grind is very easy. A lot of unusual features for an rpgm game, and if not good, than above average plot. In all, a refreshably good game in a sea of unfinished/lazy projects, gg to the dev, hope to see more games like this.

One of the best rpg maker corruption game. If you enjoy games like magical girl celesphonia(and all other work from shimobashira) you'll definitely love this game. Too bad our heroine can't get pregnant like above games tho.

It's... fine. It's not bad by any means, and it has production value put into it, but it does feel like a dime a dozen rpgmaker games where you play a solo female lead who gets gradually corrupted in town events, with various samey dungeon crawling combat to pad out the game time. It's perfectly competent at it, but it also plays by the numbers.

Not great, even in that genre bubble, but also far and away from the worst.

Pretty decent game. The opening is one of the worst I've run into though, save yourself time and literally rush main story objectives until the game gives you a direct message saying town events are open. It will be a while; lengthy main story session in town, the entire first dungeon, a ton of objectives in the town again... and that's including skipping the prologue lmao.

I hate it when these games assume their writing is worth your time, because that's rarely ever the case, and frankly, I can only handle so many lazy trope premises in a row and that's exactly what we're fed here. Some kind of demon/dark lord/force slowly corrupting people... MC has le usual lust/succubus curse/mark/brand/whatever, and you go on doing mostly rote and boring things while 'resisting' it, which by that I mean not resisting it at all because it's a freaking ero game.

This game does do some things right, though. Minor spoilers, but giving in to desire makes sense eventually (and is hinted at in the first dungeon) and leads to a better ending... which also makes senses for a porn game. In other words, you're not punished for enjoying the only real reason you got the game.

Secondly, the MC isn't a virgin so there's no virgin run or worrying about what you let deflower her if you're a person who cares about the narrative at all. Some of the questionable stuff is avoidable, like NTR, which most people are against, so good news there.

The art is great and there is a decent variety in the scenes. Despite my lashing of the narrative, it's not the worst. I have a good eye for this kind of stuff and can tell if it's the translation or if the core story is just bad (as most are), and though this is yet another incredibly tropey and unimaginative RPGM pron romp, it is definitely one of the better ones to pick if you're going to play one.

That being said, combat is laughably easy and utterly boring as it is for most RPGM games. The amount of enemies with anything but the most barebones and generic grabs/sexual attacks is few. Luckily, you don't have to grind a lot and the ease of the game lets you mostly burn through combat sections. Game uses RoD sadly, but eh what else is new. So you will have to die a few times on purpose just to get some scenes.

Overall, I'm impressed with this being their second game, and while it's still firmly stuck in the cursed cesspit full of RPGM games desperately trying to be more than glorified CG dispensers, there is enough game and narrative to make it among the best of the worst subsection of ero games and in my opinion its existence as a game instead of just a CG set is worthwhile

I like it, lots of content, lots of stuff to do, and it doesn't get boring. It has a bit of everything. The art is great and the gameplay is decent. it never becomes boring and its easy enough to get through. I enjoyed it a lot

Note this game is 4.5/5 but I rounded to 5 because I enjoyed this game a lot. It's not without a flaw section, but its one of those games where you would play more than once to see everything. (I also finished this game when it first got uploaded on here but didn't get to writing a review for it). There are some spoilers.

Pros:

• Hot protagonist.
• Great art.
• A very big game.
• Game throws a lot of money at you to buy everything you need. You can pretty much buy your way out of potential h scenes that increase desire over logic.
• I like how the cheating ending is based on how many times you cheat on Jazz for Buster and not just having sex with random people. Raine doesn’t care for men enough for the game to consider it as such, but Buster is a huge influence on her psyche that she has to resist multiple times to avoid his ending (even if it’s personally a very sexy NTR ending). You can have 1 scene of the 4 where having 3 cheating sex results in the cheating ending.
• Protagonist is not a virgin
• She’s not your typical protagonist that can subject her lover to NTR. She will always have an option to opt out of cheating so long as her reason is high (and she has heavy pockets).
• There’s a lot to do in the main town as long as you can increase your desire. The more sexual harassment Raine faces, the more events you can do around the area.

Cons:

• The lag in the main town is so bad. Even with the recent update, there is no way to stop the frame drops and it hurts since it’s the main area you are walking in. This is not seen in the other areas in the city (west and east are back to a steady frame rate.) [IDK if recent versions fix this].
• If there’s a sleeping enemy, the whole map freezes and becomes impossible to traverse. This happens in the second area with the sleeping goblins (which got fixed in the recent patch) and the fourth area with the sleeping thieves (which hasn’t been fixed). The fourth area is worse because there are areas where in order to avoid an ambush or a trap, you have to input whatever is shown on screen but the lag prevents you from doing it.
• The game isn’t balanced around reason and desire. If you play well and only pick “reason”, you are not unlocking any of the hentai scenes. Since the story makes it clear that Raine has a strong will, it’s natural to always pick blue until the end of the game where suddenly it leads you to the worst ending. Pink bar fills every time you go to sleep by 5 percent and goes up more with every successful h scene that tends to occur during the story rather than sidequests. It’s easier to stay in blue as a result.
• The ending requirement is bullshit because up until that point, the game makes you pick reason over desire.

• Meryl has no h scenes due to having a game before this one. Her design is so good, she shows up in this game, but it’s a waste that nothing happens to her (not even a consensual brothel scene). She needs at least one when her presence in the game is important.
• A lot of underutilized areas. The high class bar is used once during the story. The beach bar is barren. The underground area with all the vagrants has nothing outside of going there during the story mode.
• Most of the alchemy items are completely unused. Why make collecting items important when the ones needed to upgrade the sword and armor can be bought by the merchants in the main area? The exception is beating the bosses, wields their unique item needed for upgrades and can be farmed once a day.
• The magic stat is useless. Raine’s magic slash is useless in contrast to her normal skills. Why waste MP and TP on a skill based on her lower magic when you can just max out her physical stats and be able to mow down the majority of the enemies? The only magic stat that matters is resistance.
• The final area sucks. You go through the same womb level four times with the main difference being that it’s rotated differently and a different color. The bosses at the end are all the same with nothing to differentiate them. I feel like they should have utilized the theme of the color and made the boss use that specific element and punish Raine depending on what she has equipped or prioritizes.

Its this company's first major game (second one overall), so if they keep giving high quality games like this, I am all on board.

This game have all the good things who can expect from a H-RPG maker game :
- a lot of H-content through all the game, and not only when you get a game over ;
- some H content directly during the battle, and battle damaged clothes ;
- different cotusmes available (but sadly only one for battle) ;
- several side jobs quests ;
- a solid corruption system, which is well design (not too fast or too slow)
- an enjoyable and simple ingame gameplay and storyline.

Overall rpg mechanics aren't really innovating but they offer more of a challenge than your typical rpgmaker h-game.

What really sets this apart is the art, the story and, the "QTE" sections where you decide to lewd her or listen to reason. Rain is really cute and Inner Rain's dialogue was fun to read. Overall a really great game. Wish it got an official translation.

Very good art and scenarios. Lots of variety to the h-scenes. It's quite a slow burn so that's good if you like that kind of thing, bad if you just want to leap straight into harder stuff. The combat is good but there's an annoying focus on certain enemies binding you and destroying your armour which can massively weaken you and make it a bit of a slog. You can upgrade your weapons and armour but the parts you need for that can be very rare, and it can be unclear where exactly they are - though there's a book in your room that helps with this. It over all feels like a polished product - it even has some voice acting for certain things.

great game. very standard story but its done well. reminds me of clymenia games. always nice to see corruption games that build up the action slowly with some nice repeatable/in-between content so the actual progresssion of the game keeps you interested in seeing more. hope to see more from this dev.

It's rather fun, not too short, not too long (about ~8 hours).
The main quest is fine and is easy to follow, but I get a little tired closer to the end of the game because of constant fighting.

The fighting is mediocre at best. You don't really have to spend skill points to get to the best skills, I only upgraded two basic skills and the fights were very easy. I don't mind a few fights but there are just too many monsters in too lengthy dungeons.

The CGs are fine, there are many scenes and those are pretty good. The requirements for the scenes are a little grindy and not fun in particular.

An above average hentai game that follows the standard RPGM formula, but executes it well. For people unfamiliar to the formula, it's a woman who's employed by the government/kingdom/w.e entity in mind and has to go some town and gradually gets corrupted there because of some curse. Go through dungeons and progress in both combat and smut.

Pros:
Good art. Excellent QOL; skip button present throughout entire story and combat to avoid unnecessary time wasting, quest system is very linear and easy to follow through. Sex stats are tracked.

Cons:
Not much variety, specifically on fuckable characters. While there is lose scenes in dungeons, there's not many. Also, in town there are few places that don't have any scenes, such as the underground inn and beach.
Having to grind some sex stats is also a pain as well. Wish some of it could be easier to train.

Grindmare Knight (Review) [v1.14]

Total playtime: 8-10 hours
Number of faps: 0-1
Finished the game?: No

Game-play (4/5)
This is an H-JRPG where you play as knight whom can easily be corrupted and turn into a whore. The game is well-made and polished, I never encountered any bugs during my playtime. The game-play is easy, combat is okay. There is H-combat in the game which is a big plus. My only problem with the gameplay is that it gets super grindy near the end. Fighting the enemies for the first couple times are fun but the amount you need to fight increases significantly over time.

Sex (4/5)
The art style is really good, I liked it. There are plenty of H-scenes, and a decent amount of animated H-cut-ins. Plenty of the H-scenes and cut-ins have clothing variations. So, even the repeated events have some value. However, both the H-scenes or the animated cut-ins are not enough for a fap session. Also, most of the stuff has voice-over!

Verdict (4/5)
This is a long and grindy H-JRPG. Combat is simple and easy, there are tons of side activities you can do, and everything you do can be sexual. This is a game where you play with your dick in your hand all the time. Even though there is constant sex in the game, it never reaches to a point where you can fap one out. Overall, this is a solid game that makes you want to play to see what sexy stuff happens/you can do next. I just couldn't handle the grind near the end and stopped playing at the final boss area.


Why only 2 categories (game-play and sex) for the review?
I only care about how good and entertaining the game-play (mechanics, replay-ability, enjoyment, etc.) and whether I can fap to the h-scenes. The rest doesn't matter to me.

it's a "good" game. honestly nothing bad about it. does everything perfectly, corruption imo is excellent, because you dont need to lose to get corrupted, and corruption have 10 categories (bodyparts and fetishes) so each is separate and H-scenes in towns unlock based on that corruption level. ofc if you get raped then the corruption level doesnt matter.

so everything is great. art is very nice, she is very cute....

... so why 4/5? well idk, there are lots of sexy scenes but they are not THAT sexy. and since this is a porn forum i feel like fappability deserves higher weight in rating. plus fights are a bit too easy and monotone and a bit grindy. there are many enemy types, but you just 1-2shot everything, if you buy proper skills( you can unlock everything, so not that many skills) you can like 2-3shots bosses too. attack increase magic doesnt take away a turn, and there is both attack magic, and "all magic" which gives all buffs, and they stack. so you will have a VERY high attack dmg after both buffs. magic dmg is almost nonexistent. there is 1skill with 2routes which is the only magic dmg. so it's kind of a useless stat.

but if you get restrained, it's really really easy to escape from it. so you never really feel helpless to orgasm. which imo is a big miss.


i would have given this 4,5/5 if possible, but since it's not, it could easily deserve a 5 because there are no problems with it. some scenes even have small animations. it's just sex scenes are usually not that hot and most of the game is not that interesting, only when you are really at the end.

anyway game is good, you can spend like 10+hours on it. to some scenes you can probably fap too.(i didnt). lots of gropes and sexual harassments and kinda-mind control trope to give motivation for sluttiness and naughty behaviour. interesting desire-logic meter. so it's a very decent game.

Quite the good game, graphics are nice, the game balance is well thought-out, and the adventure, while classic, doesn't feel like a FedEx trainee course, unlike many other games of the type.
A simple caveat would be that the lategame is less immersive than the early and mid-games due to people still reacting in "skimpy clothes" way to a full on naked Rain, but still good.

This game deserves 4/5, but lack of change in the Rain character and sex scenes, ruins its appeal as a "corruption" game.

Rain starts as a "Slightly horny, but keeping appearances", and finishes as "Horny, but shy". By the time you reach endgame, Rain has "done it all", she has an experience of an old porn actress, and yet, her personalty and attitude bareley changed. Almost all the scenes are some variation of rape, molestation or being forced in some manner.

Hour 1 - Rain is raped and loves it, but is shy about it,
Hour 10 - Rain is raped and loves it, but she is less shy about it.
It would be perfectly fine, if it was a short game, but this is a fairly long one.

H-part of the game, feels a bit like reading 400 pages long doujinshi, where changes stop happening at page 100.

Played in v 1.14 with patchs
Pretty good game, a good TP system that allows you to take fights easily instead of having to take 3-4 turn in order to charge tp or take a potion this game allows you gain tp if you take a enemy from the back and also gain tp every turn if you have the ability.
Has an interesting take of FMC corruption that actually matters in the story.
Good art altough little scenes for my taste.
Overall a good game with an interesting story and a good take in the turn fight system.

Been awhile since I completed a HRPG game. It was good compared to all the trash hrpg's out there. Also the corruption isnt as crazy as oneone1 games (not that it needs to be, cuz the oneone1 games corruption can be very cruel sometimes ), but that makes it enjoyable.

Its netorare, but i enjoyed it because we play from the female pov. I hate netorare games with male protags. Also it didnt feel like netorare...maybe cuz I did'nt like jazz anyway keke.

Although I do feel like the game could have been better. It has so much wasted potential. Like the Peaceful Inn, I've been trying to sleep there since the begining but alas we could not. Or entering the mens bath.

I really wish there was a post game...guess I got spoiled by Ambrosia.

Conclusion:

Anyway good game, nice art, costumes, hot sex, decent corruption, hot protag that i like and is somewhat smart compared to those typical brain dead female protags from other hrpg games, there are jobs and minigames as well. The combat system and skill tree system were nice as well. Battle fuck and clothes break.

Give it a try.

Although standard in gameplay and mechanics, the art is simply gorgeous, and the scenes are varied enough to make this one of the better "RPGM corruption" games, playing the game itself is painless and straight forward, you'll never find yourself lost or wondering on what you have to do next.

The game does have an interesting way of handling the quintessential corruption meter, and although it does play part in unlocking new/lewder scenes, it doesn't really play out in battle fuck, which feels like a slapped on feature because they already went through the effort of drawing Rain in a million different outfits, I feel like if those aspects were expanded upon, this could've been gold.

Another average Japanese RPGM game that provides a lot of good fap material, but, unfortunately, lacks (almost) everything else. Played one game like this - played them all. But if you came here for lewds then you won't be disappointed - it's on S-tier level. Rating - 44/80, or 3/5

P.S. - need to note that the game I've played and reviewed isn't officially translated. Some parts of the game weren't translated at all, some may content issues and errors, but most of it is .

Further below is a more thorough review where I check every aspect of the game and rate it. It contains spoilers to the game so make sure to play the game first before reading this.
