    Review layout: Lazy/minimal format (STEAM)
    Review type: Game
    Review format: Lewds

    PROs:
    ✅ Fairly fun gameplay dungeoneering
    ✅ Acceptable narrative
    ✅ Great CG quality & artstyle
    ✅ Some bosses actually pose challenge
    ✅ Kinda randomized dungeons make dungeons more fun somewhat
    ✅ Gallery menu to re-watch scenes
    ✅ Characters are fairly enjoyable
    ✅ Tough bosses & secret bosses rewards are actually useful and rewarding
    ✅ Plenty of party members to choose from with each of their own skillset

    CONs:
    ❌ The game has bunch of hidden content that is extremely easy to miss (think I missed most off hidden content as I don’t spam interact button on every pixel of the map)
    ❌ Some secret/hidden bosses are too tough to be considered fun in my book
    ❌ H scenes are fairly short and dialogues in them are pretty subpar
    ❌ H scene in-scene CG variation is subpar
    ❌ Gallery room unlock switch is walled behind really tough secret/hidden boss
    ❌ Caps…an companion I didn’t know was even a companion until I finished the game.. (you seriously made a companion NPC recruitable depending on where you talked NPC from.. like seriously?)
    ❌ Finding certain things is lot of hassle, lot of wall hugging and pixel hunting/backtracking because game doesn’t tell you..
    ❌ Developer bothered to make true ending route with tough battles, but making actual true ending story so abstract and boring

    Comments
    Not much to add… as game it was pretty hooking and fun. Did beat pretty much all secret bosses legit. (aside 2 last ones.. did not have patience for them anymore). For most part going through story, doing dungeons, gearing my characters and such was pretty fun.

    But as far as hentai rpgm game goes… the H aspect of the game was pretty subpar. It had nice art quality and style.. but the scenes themselves were short with subpar dialogues with not much to them. While female lead was stone faced fighter that descended slowly to lust.. which by itself is nice character stereotype to have and she had also a boyfriend. Considering the lore of the game how they could accumulate powers. it was somewhat wasted protentional. Boyfriend was shown first few moments of the game focused mostly scenes with the old janitor and forgot about existence of the boyfriend until the end of the game. Somehow considering all the scenes she had… it was kind of lackluster, with scene content quality wise.

    Party members got pretty much exactly one scene each attention with H aspect.

    Anyhow… while art was great, rest of H aspect of the game felt pretty average if not dull. At least I personally I don’t remember
    anything to praise.

    Game itself had its problems as well… but those I brought out in cons already.
    But as whole, when it comes to RPGm games it was on better end of them. If the H element would been better, I would have liked this game more.

    Total Score: 6/10
    Game status:
    ✅ Finished

    To put this review quick, this game has well made gameplay mechanics, progression and sexual scenes, but the story is pretty average and serves as nothing but filler for the other good parts of the game. I would recommend all to play this game, it may not have anything exceptional or revolutionary, but the groundwork is done very well.

    Otome The Exorcist [Final] [hukidamari]
    Good game I recommend to everyone!
    The game is well structured, good game length, nice art and really cool Otome art.
    Quite fun fights, with nice mechanics.
    Events (scenes) quite beautiful, unfortunately I didn't like the scenes with the monsters but more for personal taste, only a few games made me appreciate the monsters.
    Female characters beyond Otome unfortunately have few scenes.
    The game is playable in full screen and the quality remains good.
    Unfortunately, the game also has some errors that do not affect the gameplay but are annoying, such as changing party formation and being able to control and move the first member of the team, but you can also meet those characters around the map, which is obviously very annoying .

    Good game, if you like the jrpg this game it's for you.

    The Plot: It's average like others rpgs.
    The Gameplay: It's a dungeon crawler well executed.
    The Art: It's very good.

    I think the game is 4.5 stars.

    The art hits different in this one, and the designs of the characters is damn cool. The weird optional ntr route was kinda slammed in there, probably just to fish a few buys, but it was still pretty well done.

    This game had been on my back burner, but I forced myself to finish playing this before I go back to other games. I'm not exactly disappointed. There are some story spoilers but its not all that important in a game like this.

    Pros:
    • The game is one of the harder hentai RPG games out there. The main story gets harder as it goes on and the bonus bosses are extra hard. If you haven’t done a good job getting good armor and knowing the strengths and weaknesses of the character, you will struggle near the end.
    • The game is a dungeon crawler in the sense of moving floor to floor before reaching the boss. Think Pokemon Mystery Dungeon.
    • Stocking up on items isn’t hard outside of MP items. There are multiple places you can restore HP/MP for free and the dungeon often gives you HP healing items. Exploring the city always rewards you with great healing items.
    • The game has a lot of hidden shops, so if you know where they are early, you can get the best items very early on. There are 3 hidden shops in total (one in the trash can next to the love hotel and game corner), one in the slums where the drug addicts are and one south of the dorm).
    • The porn is really good and not all of it is gameover scenarios. Even the ones that are don’t take too long and you can go straight into the boss fight and win.
    • You have a variety of party members to choose from where half of them are optional. By doing sidequests, you can recruit other girls into the group, unlock their h-scene and learn more about them.
    • When you beat a nest, you can actually visit the area afterwards and see new scenes and gather items in the area.
    • The game DOES foreshadow the plot twist near the end of the game. And when the plot twist happens, the game gives you many hints on how to get the best ending. Koyuki may not be good at battling, but she gives hints on how to deal with a youma according to the books.
    • The side quest to get the items needed to get the true ending is actually good because it adds to the story that might be confusing near the end and basically justifies the set up as well. Hibiki was always aloof but a failed mission resulted in her becoming cold and distancing herself from Momoko. And then you find out why this might have happened and suddenly, the stakes are much higher than originally thought.
    • I actually like the EXP -> Skill set up this game has. You basically lose levels in exchange for better skills. Once you have enough EXP and earned all the skills, then it no longer matters. At the beginning, you have to choose if you want better stats or better moves. This is balanced out if you have items to help you out. Otome getting AOE spells is crucial for sweeping nests along with Mei. She and Mei can pretty much take out nests by themselves but need a healer to make sure things don’t get out of hand.
    • Otome and Hibiki are rather decent characters for a hentai game. They have their motivation and backstory that drives them to be exorcists. By doing sidequests, you get to understand them more.
    • Mei’s video game rant is pretty funny and relatable.
    • The game lies to you about Koyuki not learning attack spells. She does after level 20 and it's a very powerful spell.
    • Most of the bonus bosses are well hidden and very challenging. You always get good items from beating them.
    Cons:
    • I understand why you can’t save in dungeons. It's to get the old RPG vibe. But of course, I’m not a fan of not being able to save anywhere especially in the optional dungeons where the enemies are harder
    • Game doesn’t hold your hand and doesn’t tell you where you need to go after a certain point in the game. Momoko is usually the one telling you what to do and while she tells you to go home after finishing up all the nests.
    • The corruption doesn’t do anything for you except allow you to get more h-scenes. I have an older version of the game so a lot of scenes that are mentioned could not be obtained even if I met the requirement
    • The dojo boss is bullshit hard for no reason. While the other bosses are hard, there is a strategy for each of them where the solution isn’t “grind until you’re overpowered”.
    • Nanako being that unit that you have to pay for in order to get the most out of her but ends up not being all that useful as a result. I’m disappointed how it takes at least 10k to get every skill available.
    • Caps is an easy to miss party member and better to use in the long run. What Koyuki lacks with her buff spells only targeting one person, Caps is able to target all party members while also having an attack spell at the start. The fact it never occurs to anyone to go behind the counter to speak to her normally (when most RPG games will just have you go to the shop menu again), it’s really frustrating a good character is available from the start but if you get her too late, you can’t use her.
    • Koyuki only has one h-scene and that’s at the beginning of the game. While the other girls have one that you must get through leveling up, the fact that Koyuki is just a side note in that regard is sad.
    • The idea that this game is NTR is dumb because Mamoru only shows up in two scenes and then disappears entirely until a late NTR scene with the janitor. He’s such a non-character at this point of time that I don’t even consider it cheating seeing how he doesn’t do anything of worth.
    • Pertaining to the above, while I like how the game rewards you for exploring, I hate how some side quests require you to literally look frame per frame. Some secrets are only obtained by hugging the wall or going back to certain places. I hate how Otome’s house is available from the start but the game doesn’t tell you how to access it. All you have to go is go to the station and pick it for the place to be fast traveled to. Every other side quest area is told to you by the person giving the sidequest.
    • Personally, I don’t like how earth, wind and light are elements that are given to one party member that isn’t Otome who is supposed to be the mage. She gets a non-elemental spell but it's garbage. Caps has wind, Leone has earth and Koyuki has light. When enemies start resisting the three elements, Otome’s use despite being the main character goes down.
    • The true ending sucks. It’s only implied what happens with Hibiki and Momoko at the end and nothing else. Like, the mission to find a way to save Momoko before fighting her is lame when the game doesn’t tell you if you succeeded outright. For all we know, we just took away her demon powers so she’s a normal person again. It doesn’t change the fact she’s a mass murderer.
    • The fact the Gallery Unlock is locked behind a secret boss that is rather difficult to beat. Gallery Unlock should be available after you beat the game and not in the game where you can easily miss it.

    I love the Otome, she's so lovely, cute, and everything <3
    Good story and excellent NTR, I think it's a bit limited, like turn based combat and game over sexual ending and other things. The multiple endings are great.

    Overall not a bad RPG where you have to really balance your play though because the dungeons are challenging for two reasons:
    1. You can only save in dungeons at specific points, save spamming is curbed
    2. While Magic is necessary you are limited in magic restore items
    It's a nice little story and some growth, plus you can build up a set of characters that allow you to change formations so you can work your way through dungeons and not worry when you've exhausted one character of magic. Later dungeons you need a lot to be able to get through as enemies get progressively harder.

    My initial review was 3 stars but the challenge was worth +1

    Dungeons are repeatable but special chests (green) are accessible only once. There is some lust and a couple of erotic scenes but after the first time are underwhelming. Later on its just the usual public and indecency stuff, which honestly is nothing new if you've played these games before. Final boss is tough but doable. Gallery is meh, but was fun to play.

    Pros:
    • Some story so there is an arc to complete
    • Amusing characters
    • Some naughty scenes
    • Repeatable dungeons and resource management
    Cons:
    • Naughty scenes aren't all that interesting after the first, some defeat scenes
    • Dungeons can be tough if you spam magic, you will run out quick, and no easy way to restore magic as those item drops are low
    • Battle gets tedious after awhile, as do the longer dungeons

    Outside of the blowjob scenes, the other H scenes are underwhelming.
    Shame that there is no more mechanics on the corruption path outside of CG triggered here and there. Broken armor, changing costumes, prostitution just to name a few features...

    What a waste of a decently developed cast of characters and world.

    The upside is that the story is actually existent. The combat and the non H mechanics are actually good.

    I've played this a couple of times and like it ok. Nothing outstanding but a well made game. My one main criticism is the janitor character providing the only lewdness component to the game. It is just uninteresting and feels added on as an afterthought.
    There isn't really much going on in this game of interest outside of the fighting which has a nice variety of skills, weapons, and equipment.

    Due to the fact that Kagura's just released an official translation, i've played this game again and... it's really good. Play time: about 6 hours (i think)

    Story: Really great and deep. There's a plot twist at the end game and i really enjoyed it. However, i wish there had been some character development because most of the time, they only go around to close the dungeon or save people. There aren't many events where they express their thought or feeling.

    Gameplay: The gameplay system in this game is really unique and quite hard compare to other MRPGs. You won't gain new skills through leveling up, but you have to spend your exp to buy skills instead. This means that you have to manage your total exp before going into dungeons because you might lack of levels when facing stronger monsters. Not only that but the way you use skills is really interesting. It's because each type of enemies requires a different skill to counter it. And that's why the game will require you to grind quite a lot if you want more skills. And to be honest, i'm not a huge fan of this, mostly because it's time-consuming, especially when you have to waste 30 min in a single boss fight. Yes some end game bosses are really tough with those dark souls health bars.

    CG: Well they are really good and entertaining. All of them are rape and NTR by a dirty old man. Because this game is kinda old (released in 2017), so it can't win against these recent new games, which have colorful arts, voiced or animation. However, there's still a special charm in this game and i really love it. The only bad point about CG is how less scenes other characters have. To be clear, that is beside the main character, Otome, other characters only have 1-2 hentai scenes. Even her best friend, the red hair girl Mei, only has 2 scenes and we don't even know the proper reason why she has sex ??

    To sum up, this one is a really good game and i really enjoy it. Just go around and explore this game, you will see the charm in it. Anyway, try the game and have fun with it, you won't regret this.

    This is overall a good game. The art is great, especially the protagonist. Although some character development might've been nice. Story is interesting, with a little twist at the end, which I appreciated.
    Combat is well developed. You can't just spam one attack to annihilate everyone, you have to pay attention to what works with different enemies and what doesn't. There was only one time where I felt I needed some grinding to beat a level, otherwise the difficulty is well adjusted. I only real problem with this game is the visualization. Like costumes don't change sprites(except in some scenes), sprites don't appear in battle, etc. It doesn't make the game bad, just not as great as it might be.

    F&F game... fun and fappable.

    Really good gameplay with dungeon exploration, fun from the beginning till the end. Must play if you like RPG. Decent story I guess.

    The exploration part is really fun, it's not grindy a and it gives some challenge, the elements and status are actually useful.

    Good scenes with great art and in good quantity, they are a bit slow to get at the beginning but it gets easier later on. Also the girls are pretty hot. Also, don't get scared by the description of the H-scenes, I would say probably around 2/3 are normal and 1/3 are what the description says.

    So, you should play it... or fap to it, your choice. In any case, try it.
