VN - Ren'Py - Onhold - Pact with a Witch [v00.20.04j Premium] [jonnymelabo]

Game is pretty good, but I really feel like 90% of it must be based on personal experiences, cause there is way too many beliefs the protagonist and others have, for it to really be an all original idea.

Neus is definitely the best character in the game, but because the protagonist is so obsessed with their childhood friend, it’s terrible annoying having to deal with them. Didac deserves what he got.

Art is decent, but so inconsistent that it’s crazy this game has about 2 years of life and there’s still placeholders. They can afford to hire different artists with its current inconsistency, so that’s pretty ridiculous.

For whatever also reason, Female Didac still looks like a man, even after turning into a female, and it’s just so repulsive having to look at. Doesn’t make any sense either, since there are two female characters that actually look female. Devs and their artist really need to get their eyes checked.

All I hear from seeing Didac is Linda’s voice from Bob’s Burgers.

Mini games are the worst part, because of the above, and makes me question how many games the dev has ever played because it’s so out of place and an annoyance for a porn game.

Not even sure if I’ll be able to finish the game since I’m trying to get through the first sex with Didac now.

Art is excellent, plot is incredible, decisions really matter, Neus is lovely, Didac is too muscular, but hot at the same time, the blonde is a bitch, I hope second date gets more interesting. So far I love this game, only problem is development is too slow.

This game so far is great the plot is interesting and has me wanting more i like the whole idea behind this game and the characters seem unique and fun. The stuff in the game has me wanting more i love the magic that was used for the one scene/moment and want more.

Art 9/10
Story 10/10
Characters 10/10
Sex 7.5/10 Needs more

A good game that's worthy of being downloaded/supported. The biggest gripe that I have is the extended dialog in the museum with the blonde girl. Didn't see where you could skip the entire dialog but it would of been nice to have.
It has a good story line (with the exception of the above mentioned gripe), interesting mini-game with room mate and very good art.

The following review is based off my personal experience with playing this Game/Visual Novel... I try to be as brutally honest and detailed as I can, and these are my own opinions and thoughts, from one or more play throughs...


(01/14/2018 - Original Review - v00.06.02)

Even though a lot of character visuals were not colored in, I really liked this visual novel/game...

Visuals for the characters are absolutely awesome... They are 2D hand drawn, but you can feel the emotions and feelings and energy from the characters, even when a lot of them are not colored in yet... The backdrops do sometimes look like they are just real photo's put through a filter of some sort, but they still fit the theme of each scene... There are flip picture animations, and that is pretty darn good for being all hand drawn... Because that is an insane number of hand drawn pictures to have to make for this project... Bravo to the artist/s...

The script is pretty darn good as well, as I didn't run into hardly any spelling/grammar errors... So if this was originally in Spanish and was translated into English, it was a really good translation/interpretation... The plot revolves around a male protagonist at a university, who saves (at least that is the route I went with) a goth looking woman from being practically raped by his room mate... She bites him during the struggle which causes him to slowly change into a woman (over several in-game days)... The main plot really is the protagonist having 3 different women he can have a relationships with, one being his newly transformed room mate... This VN/game sort of plays out like a love/romance story, with 3 different characters...

I went with the goth woman, who is some sort of witch... The protagonist makes a pact with the witch to go on 3 dates with her in order to fix his room mate... From there I chose to go on the first 2 dates with her (3rd date isn't made yet), and I really did feel, because of the choices I made, like it was a blossoming love story, which I am a sucker for... I actually caught myself smiling while playing this route, because it felt like they were really falling for each other... Now that being said, I did to go for the erotic scene at the end of the 2nd date, and after it was over, the content ended at that point... I won't say exactly what happened, but I'm beginning to wonder if it was the right choice to make, and I hope the love story angle is not going to be some disgusting over the top let down in the end, after more content is added... Because I really liked that goth woman story line up to this point... If that does happen, I will have to rethink my view of this VN/game... But for now I have to say this VN/game has been awesome...

Overall, even though it is still under construction, playing this game was both entertaining, fun, and I love a good romance/love story, even with the humor and occasional sarcasm, it is not often I catch myself unknowingly smiling when reading/playing these sorts of VN/Games... Bravo to the authors, and I definitely look forward to future content updates... Keep up the AWESOME work...

Well, thank goodness my fears doing Neus's story line were not as bad as I thought... The story does continue on after the 2nd date, even if she gives you a BJ... On top of that, more of the black and white drawings have been colored in, more motion animations, and looks great...

There was an error I ran into once the protagonist returned home with his room mate missing... The 2 choices after receiving the phone call from Neus about the room mate, are not showing any text in the boxes... And after making either choice the game claims Day 05 is missing with missing text and visuals on all further left clicks... I tried reloading from a save game, but the error still occurs... So not sure if that content is just missing from not being made yet, or if there is an error occurring...

I still did not go down the other two characters story arcs, mostly because I'm more interested in the Neus story line... But I'm still impressed with the motion animations and drawings as well as love/romance story elements... There wasn't a whole lot of additional Neus content, but I still enjoyed what little there was... If there is more Neus content beyond the error, then I was not able to experience it yet...

Keep up the good work, and I look forward to seeing the issue fixed, as well as additional content in the future...

Good creepy game, love the artstyle, though the colors can be a bit overly bright in some bits. very intriguing story thusfar with an even more intriguing main heroin, not to mention some pretty hot scenes thusfar.

Exelent writing, original story, beautiful drawings.. even educational on Spanish culture! It is good even though it is unfinished. Story could easily allow a lesbian or futa branches to be added. Highly recommended over the trival mom-son-sis games flooding everything lately.

The downside is that original text is in Spanish. English translation lost some of the meaning. Another thing is the HUGE amount of text. There are so many offtopic conversations, art references, Spanish locations, etc. and much less visuals to go with the text. That causes (me) to quit the game out of boredom for a few days.
