Unity - Price for Freedom: Avarice [Build 35.0 Beta 1] [Team Dead Deer]

I have difficulty evaluating games like this. It is executed with great love and skill, and certainly a lot more competence than your run-of-the-mill puzzle game or RPGMaker. However, as a game that aspires to be a good CRPG, it has functional turn based combat and a functional plot, but neither of which are at a high enough caliber for me to consider enjoyable. This is a problem, since a cheap puzzler might be played for the adult content alone, while this one requires the time and emotional investment of a "real" experience from you. For me it has not earned that.

Played this quite awhile and thought I would try it again not playing it for quite a few months. Still way too much text to go through. The animations are ok, but a lot of the text doesn't match up with the scene it's describing. It's a shame you can't have sex more than one time with the Elf from the Inn and Hiho from the temple. With a lot more events, more locations to travel too, less text, and more h-scenes this game could be really great.

The art is really great. The lore of the world is quite flashed out and interesting.

The battle system is OK. Half of the skills are not fully implemented jet, the balancing of the skill system is also still horrible. (You get way to many skill points and not enough reasons to use them).

Now to the bad sides.
Not enough content for all of it's development time. Way too much patreon only content. (not only scene, but also full quests, so you have even less to do). The world feels not really immersive, way too many random NPC have no walking animations and just glide around while you take way too much time to get anywhere, because you are so slow, even if the walking animation looks like you are running. There is yet only one girl that has more then one scene and she isn't even an companion. The companions are also lackluster after all this time. You can't talk more with them outside their quests, at last they interfere regularly while you are talking with someone.

Honestly it feels more like this game deserves only three stars, but I think that would be not very fair from me.

Art 5/5
Combat 5/5
Lore 5/5

The game is good, but for anyone that don't like to read much in games it can be really annoying.
It's amazing that we are able to skip combat.
The illusion of choice is quite present too, it's a let down to read so many text and choosing dialogues if the outcome is always the same

[review for v14.3]

Another great 2D game.

The artwork is beautiful and the sex scenes are well animated. Expect to have sex with non-human women - it's a high fantasy setting.

The story is actually quite gripping and the combat system is not only pretty easy to understand, but also completely optional. If you're not interested in fighting, you can use the always successful auto-resolve. You will miss out on a few XP that way though.

All in all good fun with a good mix of fantasy story and sex. 5/5

I mean the rating speaks for it self, and mine is no different. This game is really good, everything is well done from the superb animations to the gameplay and characters.

Easy game to do a review on, if only every game was at least 40% of what this game has to offer we would be swiming in good games.

Well animated and detailed sex scenes with a combat system that is looking to be more than the tedious muck most erotic games throw in. Interesting world with a lot of thought put in to the story.
Frequently updated.
Give it a try

Reviewing patreon build 12.1

Eaaasy 5/5.

Super hot 2d graphics. Many hours of content. This game is what pretty much all the RPG-maker games strive to be, but fail miserably at. It reminds me a lot of the Diablo genre games, but with turn-based combat and where you get to fuck monster girls.

This game is an actual game first, fap material second. It's actually got it's own quite unique combat mechanics and everything! I'm bewildered by the sheer amount of graphics, mechanics and detail.

Even though the game isn't primarily fap material, the sex scenes are incredibly well done, with top notch animations.

The scope of the game is super ambitious, with a metric shit ton of detailed environments and NPCs walking around everywhere. The amount of work that has gone into creating this really boggles the mind!

If I were to list any negatives, then maybe the combat could be less repetitive, and a bit more intuitive - I started using auto combat after a few hours. Also the writing could maybe be better. It's still absolutely 4/5 writing, but I've seen better.

Even though this game has several hours worth of gameplay already, it's obvious that the devs' scope is much bigger - and the world they are building sure has lots of room to grow.

This is THE best game in the RPG genre for me! If you like RPG's you'll love this one!

Warmly recommended. Go support the dev team on patreon they really really deserve it!

This will be a review of the game in it's current state (Patreon Build 12.1)
As such, things may change in the future, I will update this review.
-UPDATE for Patreon Build- Updates will be Underlined

Tags (I will leave out tags that are simply there and don't need expanding upon. So if it's not in this review, it's part of the game and you don't have anything to worry about.):

Romance- This will depend on your definition of "romance." I found that the "romances" were just going to girl to receive quest, complete quest, fuck. Two characters go slightly further by being allowed to join your combat group. There are a couple touching moments but treat it as something to get your rocks off, not something to make you feel things.
RPG- Rpg elements include experience, leveling up, and placing points into attacks for combat. You can't change weapons, armor, or The Role-play part feels... lacking. It's not a detriment to the game in the sense that you won't be able to enjoy this game without it but people looking to make choices that will affect how people see your character, this might not be the game for you.

Pro's:
-The art is fantastic
-Sex scenes are quite descriptive and long without losing steam.
-Sex scenes are also well drawn and animated.
-Character movement AI is actually smart; If you click to move to a spot on the other side of a house, your character won't get stuck trying to walk into the wall like many of the regurgitated "click to move" based games. If a maze existed in this game and you stood at the start then clicked to move to the finish; I am confident that the player character would make it to the end with no problem. (can also use WASD if you don't want to click)
-Spent multiple hours playing this game without it becoming repetitive or dull.
-Fog of War is a fun mechanic when exploring a dungeon. It does bring a couple complications but I overall enjoy the mechanic.

Con's:
-Default narrator color is tough to read with most backgrounds but this can be changed in settings. I only list this as a con because I spent the entire game with the default color, not thinking to look if I could change the color until after I finished the current build and not being prompted that I could. (To the developer; maybe have the option to change these colors in the character creator before beginning a game?)
-There are currently no real relationships that a player can pursue. Each character that you can fuck can only be done so once, then replayed in the gallery. There is no option to have anything more unless they are one of the two characters that can join your party
-Combat in close quarters is complicated due to the design of the game. The current Patreon build gives you a new quest that takes you into a decently sized dungeon. Unfortunatly, if you don't choose to skip combat, a few things will become noticable.
>1. Fog of war is only applied to the character that you're trying to move instead of all members in your party. This becomes a pain when combat is taking place in a room behind a door. You might accidentally click on an enemy, or find it difficult to move to a specific hex because a character model is in the way.
>2. Combat can lasso in enemies from another room. This only happened once to me but I had to spend 10 turns running around the rooms trying to find these enemies that I couldn't see until they walked in through a door.


All in all, I found this to be a really enjoyable game to play. This will be the second game on this site that I will actually be supporting through Patreon.

I was quite impressed that I played the non-patreon version of this game for 8-9 hours; completing all quests, side-quests, and "romances" that were available in this free version. Maybe only spending one of those hours viewing the gallery, in combat, and exploring. And about an extra half hour shaved off if you decide to skip the prologue part.

I'm also personally excited for when I can get personal with Dee (a cute deer girl) and Goldra (a sexy horned lizard) in game.



TL;DR: A really enjoyable game to play; give it a shot if you're into monster girl sex like I am. A bright future for this game with so many directions the developers can explore.

One of the best "games " i've played a lot of it, most of what we are used to are just visual novels and point and click, but this one more charm, exploring, intesting plot and characters, and really good art, it's probably the game i'm the closest to actually become a patreon.

I won't waste the reader's time by repeating what has already been said. Suffice to say that the two reviews below are absolutely right. There are a few minor improvements, but this is to be expected of a work in progress and everything else is fantastic.

However, don't expect this to be a non-stop fapping game. Think of it like a traditional RPG with an isometric view and a rich story were you occassionally get some great sex scenes with the NPC's you meet.

One of the few games where the story is interesting and presented in a creative way. The animations where surprisingly well done, the world feels authentic and alive and the setting (of a more arabian city) is one I had not encoutered before like that. I wait patiently for more content and I wonder what the final game will look like.

Pros:
+Good story.
+Great world filled with information (Codex etc).
+nteresting Characters.
+Good fluid top-down gameplay.
+Good Animations.
+Great character design.

Con:
-I'am not that big of a fan of the combat system, but its skipable.
-Personally I wished for more than one sex position like some others have.
-No high diversity of regions you can travel to. Just one city like an oasis had been enough for my eyes.

But these cons are very personal and are a result of my wish for more content.

THIS IS AN OLD REVIEW AND DOES NOT REPRESENT THE CURRENT STATE OF THE GAME.

After seeing just a demo of one scene while browsing around, this was one of the few times I sat and said "alright, I guess I'm going to be researching a porn game now" to try and find it. I've been sick of having to settle with so many 3d models because no one had the patience to make a good 2d game. This... this is that premier 2d game I've been looking for. I may only be about halfway through the game, but considering I've been blown away by the earlier content that may not be as refined as the newer, I can't wait to continue playing.

Here's what I've got for a pros and cons to go more in-depth on what I found in this game.

Pros:
-Incredible Art style. Simply fantastic. The animation is fluid and simple in a way that doesn't make having to read and watch at the same time too difficult.
-The writing, speaking of which. I found myself actually paying attention to the side conversations that had nothing to do with flirting; and to see that one of the writers actually researched bio-mechanics and put it in the game is insane.
-Characters are fleshed out incredibly well. It is hard to avoid doing cliches when you're expected to be writing fantasy women, but this isn't incredibly "in-you-face" about it. I've read VN where I would notice myself rolling my eyes at character behaviors. This does it in a very fluid fashion.
-The game actually has... believe it or not... a game to it. But what's even better? The option to just literally skip all of the intensive battling. A golden concept that's always ignored for some fucking reason, but its actually available here; its quick and no questions asked.
-There are interactive events and moral choices at a basic level that is amusing and fulfilling without being overbearing

Cons:
-I can't fuck Dee yet. What a cute.
-In all seriousness, replaying the scenes requires you to go to the gallery, and while it's nice you get to replay the actual talking leading up, there's a missed opportunity (at least in what I've seen so far) for there to be follow up sexy sessions where the dialogue changes slightly
-There are quite a few typos and getting lost in some of the grammar at times that I would keep getting caught up on, and small UI color errors that would throw me a loop for a second.
-There is a missed opportunity for threesomes / group sex

Note that the Cons are things that are easily changed in the updates to come, but from what I've seen, this game is incredible so far, and I look forward to watching it progress.

...And fucking Dee.

I never review a game on f95 but goddamn this game is too good for people to pass up.
Great dialogue, soundtrack, and RPG feeling with a vast amount of lore that makes this game so great. you know a porn game is good when it's good by itself even without the scenes.
also, the scenes are so beautifully animated.
the only thing that i hate is that you are forced to play as an elf, i'd rather play as a human.

So here is one F&F (fun and fappable) game. Imo, a must play.

This is an interesting game with fun gameplay, lot of lore and good porn scenes. Any RPG/Fantasy lover should enjoy this even without the "the plot", it is a fun game. Intersting lore, characters and dialogs, and the art adds a lot to the world building. Really cool game.

Art: great and really unique, I love it. Plus the scenes are animated.

The only complains so far for me is the lack of sex scenes, but the quality is so great that it can be overlook, and the combat feels like it needs a bit more polish (the combat is good tho, don't get me wrong).

Great lore
Great Animations and Drawing
Good gameplay!
Awesome game
Has lots of potential

To me the game feels like Pillars of Eternity Eroge version.
Developers are really friendly and specially the lore maker of this game is very onto it. Always tries their best to provide updates! Has lots of potential and developers are friendly!

The game is great in so many aspects, story line, art and characters, very playable, that I cannot but give it the best score. I haven't come across too much erotic content so far, which may be a turn down for some, but there is a certain tension build up and maybe it will be there later. And possibly I didn't make the right choices for this.
