RPGM - Completed - Ouroboros [v2.1] [Sierra Lee]

Difficult to explain why this is worth 5 stars without ruining the entire plot.....lets just say the plot carries this game, massively. What seems at first an almost cookie cutter story takes a turn to the complex as you play further on. New Game+ also offers changes to the plot and character developments so it is certainly worth replaying. The H-scenes are pretty well written with great art, even if there is a lot of distance between them at times and the gameplay aspects are solid.

Suffers a lack of combat design and rewards for combat, but this in itself a deliberate choice to fit in with the theme of the plot, especially when you realise most combat can be skipped on repeat playthroughs. Certain parts will get repetitive if you opt to New Game+ (the games gonna be short if you only do one run.....), but forging through will be rewarded by having certain segments skipped to speed up repeat playthroughs.

Overall, another top notch game by Sierra. While it lacks the grandiose scale of some of her other games, this short tale is certainly an enjoyable one to play.

story: amazing.

gameplay: fun and well though.

characters: really good.

scenes (normal and erotic ones): really well done.

draws: very good.

music: well done.

conclussion: THIS GAME IS AMAZING! is so fun to play, easy and fluid, the characters are atractive and clever, the map is well done, and the story is apealing...AND I DONT GET TO THE EROTIC PART YET! it took me 3 hours to complete this game. wait let me refrase that...to finish this adventure, and i enjoy every minute.

this game TOTALLY worth your time and money

Good CG, through scenes are rather few and far between. Story is well above average even without considering that it's a porn game. I play w/o sound, so no rating on music and sound effects. I certenly would like to see a contiouation. Now to the bad things. Fights are largely just a nuisance, as we are immortal and there is no drops from mooks. Bosses are much more interesting, but easy (not necessarily a bad thing for a +18 game). Exept for 1st fight on 1st cycle, where player might (and probably will be) less prepared and sudden spike for 4-5 last enemies (especially final boss). These are the only ones that really require all potions and/or luck.
There is also a big issue with the amout of backtracking and lack of a way to skip already seen scenes. Considering that there is a repetition theme to the game, I think everyone would like to prevent long travels between distant locations. It's not an issue early on, but getting back from fire dungeon, or especially vine forest is a pain in the ass. As long as you can take long walks through annoying enemies (fortunately, there is a way to mitigate respawn later on) and like quality reading and seeking secret dialogues in your porn, this is for you.
