What to dislike:

- Horrible UI

- Too difficult to understand at first
- Sometimes you go way too long without absolutely nothing happening
- Very little information/hints on the gallery
- Despite having multiple playable characters, realistically only one of them has unique content
- Some of the art is too old and needs to be redone (eg. Cowgirl)
- Gameplay WILL be burdensome, tiresome and annoying if your team isn't way stronger than the enemies
- Some things are so nonsensical you'll play dozens of hours and still not understand how they work
- Some interactions are endlessly repeatable and only have the same image (or the same couple images) to show
- The art is rough, but does the job IF you like what's being shown
- Some of the art is too rough to be liked, and needs to be redone
- Not being able to flee with the enemy near you is profoundly annoying
- There are some annoying bugs

Well, I had originally dropped this game entirely back when I first played it ages ago. I now decided to give it a second chance after playing Demon Dome.

The moral of the story is: you really need a whole lot of tolerance and patience when dealing with this game. There is a lot to like, but way too much to dislike, and the only thing that will keep you playing it is your attraction towards the content. In order to enjoy the rough art you need to really like what's being shown. And if you do, and also treat this game with plenty of patience, then you'll have an excellent time. And, really, it will be a time unlike any other, because there simply isn't anything like Portals of Phereon. It's as unique as Theraurge.

In case you're a new player, I'd highly recommend playing it on as easy of a mode as possible first. The downside is that you won't get gallery images this way. I also recommend leveling up Zija, because you can farm strength with her to the point where she will be able to hit kill anything.

really one of the best fantasy open world management game, artstyle is really hot and makes the erotic scenes have a realism sense about them, like a messy feel, lots of special encounters really well made, only the starting and understanding the mechanics can be daunting without a guide or good understanding about these types of games, but for what it is its nearly perfect, i just wish that there were more romance mechanics other than dates, sex, something milders like kissing outside of sexual encounters, but the gameplay and strategy part of this game is addicting

Actually a repayable with lots of variety . Followed this game all the way through development, the developer takes the users preferences into mind with a lot of the content being requests. The art styles i think is really nice

The game is very good, but if it had more sexual content it would be much better. It could at least have capture animation for each species, not just that generic animation. The game practically has scenes only of the main characters, even though there are several species in the game. It's a game with a lot of potential.

This game is absolutely brilliant, can't give it a less than 5/5. Sure it has room for improvement in certain areas, but its an excellent management game regardless. You can acquire most of the unlockable stuff in this game after around 200 hours (maybe more if you do stupid shit like me) and almost all of the art for the game is incredible to look at. Would recommend this to anyone that enjoys management style games!

It's an excellent game with an amazing art style.
The only downside is a steep learning curve. The advice here is to ignore all secondary mechanics and focus the first playthrough only on battles and exploring. Leave everything else (dating, breeding, brothel management, crafting, etc) for a next time, it's not that much important

Just started. Looks great, UI feels great, idea is familiar enough but still has much novelty. Seems to be a game loved by its fans and devs, possesses a dedicated and talented dev and artist combo, supported by a decent wiki.
But the main reason for this post has to be a rant. THE SHEER AMOUNT OF INFORMATION IS CAUSING MY BRAIN TO OVERLOAD AGH. But the game is compelling enough to continue, just like The Last Sovereign.

I really want to like this game. The art is great. There are interesting ideas for combat and management. There are so many elements introduced so quickly that when you start the game it just feels like you're blazing through a flurry of different tangentially-connected menus. The UI is not great in that regard. You can tell there is a great game inside trying to get out. I think if the dev rethought the design of the interface this game could be more attractive. As it stands it just seems like you could rename this Feature Creep: the Game.

I'm not even a fan of the content, but it doesn't even matter, because this is a GAME, and not a sad excuse to show off a few pictures. In fact this may be the most game I've yet encountered in this category. Mad respect to the creator(s).

I think is the best game i have ever played in this site, complex mechanics, quest, random events and secrets, it have it all. The art is great, and the characters as well, is hard to believe it is made by just one person

This is a game that deserves the descriptor of "naturally grown" in regards to its systems. Its honestly impressive how many systems it has. too many in fact.
The game is very pretty, cool art, cool interactions and very cool ideas. Its also incredibly customizable regarding difficulty and experience.
So its even worse that even on the easiest of settings its still incredibly tedious. Its mechanics and time management are far too granular leading to a complexity that is so high you cannot play this game casually. You cant just start a game and feel like you are succeeding at something. This is not helped by the fact that if you try and make the game as easy as can be so you can have the time to learn and experiment the game tells you to fuck off and restricts unlocks.
While its easy to say "git gud" and learn every in and out of the game this really only works if the game is actually fun. And many of its mechanics are. Dating, Breeding, Fusion everything contained to the basecamp is pretty great. Combat is a mess. Its unintuitive, has a horrible UI, Encounters vary highly etc.

Yet I dont want to judge it too harshly. Because what does work does so in a great way. It gives you so much, even if it is too much.
I would really wish for a PoP2 to be announced. Take what was learned and streamline it.

I could say that this game is the best of it's kind but I don't think that would be very accurate. This game stands completely on it's own. Sure, you might draw some similarities with other breeder titles but this game goes far beyond just a simple breeding simulator. As a whole package, with all of it's features and mechanics viewed together, it is a completely unique experience you won't find anywhere else.

Beautiful and unique art. Great combat which requires strategy. Detailed and varied breeding/ fusion system with a huge amount of different species with unique traits and skills. Lots of events with unique characters, some of which have their own mini-arcs. Dates with cute monster girls. And I could go on...

Despite the amount of time I've invested into this game there is still a bunch of features and mechanics I am still not familiar with. This game is ROBUST and it doesn't ease you in. One criticism I think is valid is that it's very intimidating and hard to digest for new players. But once you start to slowly get the hang of stuff it's very rewarding.

5/5, give it a go. Push through the harsh beginnings and it will be worth it.

This is an excellent game. Make no mistake it is a GAME first with some porn in it the gameplay is very deep, so deep that i havent completely figured it out yet completely. Sandbox mechanics allow you to progress by very different distinct options. Insane amount of content spells/skills. Highly recommend.

One of the best games I've played but in overall is pretty well made but common. Countless mechanics. Wery rich gallery. It's pretty slow in gameplay but still nice to play. Recommend to try.
4\5

Sometimes I feel the dev think their game is too perfect. And he intends to spoil it so that people do not die from rapture.
Game idea is nice, sandbox strategy with tactical combat and pokemon/persona pawns collection and improvement. With futas and breeding.
But everything, exept combat, falls to boring loops due to restraints. All of this max lvl, world lvl and so on forces player to repeat already known reactions, instead finding new ones.
Finding something new maded boring too. It`s not like uniqure pawns with uniqure traits spawn in uniqure conditions. It`s just random mess where you just sort usefull or not. All of this amplified by traits that dublicate linear stats. 5 str and strong or 10 str and weak!? Why not just extend stat range by aditional numbers and leave traits to be ... well, traits!? Uniqure effects.
And something wrong is everywhere. Game has breeding mechanic, but most of MC, unlike pawns, can`t normaly improve stats and traits. So their offsprings always be worse than random ones. I don`t get it. Dev share with us his dream about that his children will be worse than others? let his dreams come true.
And so on. Unlockables for next playthrough, instead of current, like in bad mobile games. Uniqure NPC that lose their uniqueness if you try to improve them.
Everything indicates that the game was spoiled on purpose. A person cannot just make mistakes like that.

Rewards the time you put in, a ton of different monstergirls and a ton of art in a very interesting style. You can get into the patreon for $1/mo. With the time I've spent I more than got my money's worth. There's a linux version which means it became another game I slapped on the steam deck and I've no issues there beside the custom cursor, which can be toggled.

This has some nice porn in it, but more than that it's just a fun game on its own. Specially as you start to understand how deep some of the mechanics are.

Probably the best game out there if you like managing games.

This game is great: A perfect blend between Heroes Might & Magic 3 and a farming breeding simulator.

Looks like it is still in early stages but the amount of quality gameplay and contents here is admirable that it make the Patreon 5$ sub still feel like a steal.

Though the devs should REALLY try using UI Icons instead of just hotkey-ing and right-clicking everything lmao.

I feel like there is a good game here. Maybe. Its beautiful certainly! But I've never played a game so damn uninterested in explaining what the fuck is going on in my life. The straw that broke my back was after I had created a character and tried to date one of the Monster Girls I had. I quickly found out that to actually do anything in this game you need to attend a four year college and get a degree on it. It is again, visually stunning, but Ive only got so much time
