RPGM - Palestra [v1.73] [Redflash]

v1.53.1
It's simple with this one
Pluses: The artwork is good within its style, a good amount of scenes with variety of fetishes, the scenes work. Charecters are good. Dialogues are fine. While the main goal of the game is to meet multiple charcters and get a lot of juicy scenes it even has a decent main story.
Minuses: The general gameplay. A lot of grind, not many opportunities for some strategic or tactical planning, even exploring is kinda limited. Contests can be interesting for a while trying to get good score with limited abilities.
Normally I would rate that as (below) average due to gameplay but it is one of the best games here regarding artwork, characters, writing so I give it 4/5 (though I would love to see it with modified gameplay).

This game is too grindy. I really hate the quests and minigames of Keith(seriously!!!!) I manage to finished the hacking quest but after that I don't know where they went so I guess I have to go all over the place to see where they are(not in the lab I checked it for 3 consecutive days)

Hi! I decided to express my gratitude, to say thank you for this wonderful game! I met her on a porn site with "adult" games, and today I decided to find out if there is a download version. I hope I'll figure out how to install all the Extras, and not screw it up. I wish you health and happiness!

I have one problem with this game, it's way too much of a grind.
The art and the writing in this game is great, and I enjoyed almost all the scenes I came across, but the amount of effort it takes to get to the next one is just too much.

These inane minigames are too much for me to handle. Firstly each mini-game consists of repeating a mind-numbing activity, and secondly you have to repeat each minigame many times.

You could argue that it makes it more satisfying to unlock the scenes, but I would disagree, and would say it takes away from the experience way too much, as the minigames is the main part of the game.
Even when I used a save editor to increase the relationship points, I couldn't handle doing these minigames more than a couple of times. I'm focusing on this negative point of the game, as this is basically the whole game.

Honestly, a prompt before starting to just skip the minigame would make this game so much more better. After the third character finished, I could not be bothered to continue anymore.

It is made by a person who is incredibly good at sprite work and talented in many other methods, not to mention I haven't seen any other game like this that involves anime and video game characters and it actually be gay based, so its a good treasure.

Thank you for this beautiful game. It's very exciting specially the story line and also the contests. Also the characters are so nice. it'd be better if editing the team formation or equipping was easier. i don't know how but... nvm. can't wait to see the next update! ''\ (^_^ ) /''
