Others - REC [v0.4.0.3] [moondev]

Surprised me for the better. Fun and engaging gameplay, with the player actually learning strategies to improve, sexy and not as pervy is I thought, I guess since the setting is light-hearted.
And the mechanic for rewinding time makes it enjoyable even though it is challenging to start off with

It's simple, it's quite funny at times and it can be challenging: this game is one of the best on this site: mechanically sound, easy to understood and even easier to get hooked on to. Just one more night, one more upgrade, I bet I can push it a bit further next night - and boom. You're hooked, just like that.

There is a plot in this game, naturally, but it's not REALLY fleshed out: it's an eroge, so don't expect Mass Effect levels of writing/plot. All that said, the plot is still decent and there are many random events to keep it interesting and dynamic.

All in all, a good and fun game to keep you occupied for a couple of hours.

Played for an hour, ended up with no money, no energy, everyone hated me and I didn't see a single ero scene. Everytime I tried the night scene, my battery died in an instant.

As a game it's basic, as an eroge it just doesn't work.

Well, guys... This is a Masterpiece, at version 0.3.

For fans of Sleeping　－ I am 100% sure. すごいげむ！

First, a digression:
So... I'm not usually a fan of pixels, and yet I'm a big fan of 2D, anime styles, and "sleepers" are my fetish. Please join me if you have any good recommendations im PM.
Closer to the game... I sincerely wish there were more games like this. Not just more, but I'm even willing to help the developers, which is what I'll be asking them about. First and foremost, as an artist. I hope they won't spend 5 or 10 years making this one tho, like some other folks...

While people like me are sifting through mountains of junk to find something similar... This game is a pure dimond.

Pros:
Pixels don't bother me up here. Few bugs. Multiple languages. Interesting development. Decent storyline. Interesting minigames. And if they add different sex poses and different girls with new mechanics and poses, this game will be priceless. It can be put on par with Summer Days, Tora-Tora, Nightmaretaker and alike.
I'll give the developers a special thumbs up for the fact that, unlike others, they introduced key sex adventures early on in the game. This is Very Cool. 10 out of 10.

Cons:
Not enough! I want more girls and a continuation of the story. Encountered one critical bug. The minigames while running (stumina burst) and too much cooking at the beginning seemed a bit unnecessary.

A little more poetry:
My God, how unexpectedly and kindly this game has delighted me. In fact, it's enough for more than one encounter. Not many can boast that.
Overall, I haven't given anything here maximum stars in a while now. Especially I didn't expect to give them to something like version 0.3. But this little piece of delight deserves the highest praise i'd say.
It's as if my ideas and thoughts about a good sleeping game with an adult twist were partially realized here. Favorited.

SleepingBrother recommends. My fellow comrades - you should be bowed before this one.

I hope devs won't disappoint me in the future. I'm keeping an eye on you!

Really solid game so far. Love the art style. Excited to come back when endings are finished.

The mechanics were not too difficult, so I knew the grind would be manageable, but I like that codes were available to get past some of the early game.

Прикольная игрулька на пару вечеров, есть определенный момент с гриндом(решается читами), анимации приятные, сложность на оптимальном уровне, интересные диалоги. Есть небольшие проблемы с программной частью игры, но это не критично учитывая что разработчик в процессе и обновления выходят довольно часто. Попробовать стоит, похоже на NTR.

A fun game for a couple of evenings. There's a certain grinding element (resolved with cheats), the animations are pleasant, the difficulty is optimal, and the dialogue is interesting. There are some minor issues with the game's software, but it's not a big deal considering the developer is working on it and updates are released fairly frequently. It's worth a try; it's similar to NTR.

This game is going to be absolutely amazing when it is complete and balanced appropriately. I cannot overstate how much of a real game this game is compared to the overwhelming majority of NSFW slop.

I genuinely hope the developers add even more light problem solving components to the current game. This is a truly unique and 5-star worthy game even in its current unfinished state. It has a crazy amount of potential.

Fun gameplay

Combat- fun but can get a little boring after a lot of repitions. It would be nice if you could get a visual effect when enemies are charmed with the right stat, like on the cop. Or if thats not a thing it would be cool to add if you stats were high enough you could essentially one shot lower level enemies by picking the right charm dialogue.

Nighttime- EXCELLENT! No critism at all for this, other than add more content soon plz. More girls or more girls in Yunas room that you can interact with would be great. Also scenes with larger dick sizes and more cum! A pronebone scene would be nice.

Upgrades- I think a good counter point to the growing player skill and debuffs on Yuna could be making a increasing dick size upgrade. Cum amount too would be nice.

General- Some missing general features that I'd expect are rollback, though thats not super important. A main one is a gallery or at least a way to check if you have unlocked or seen everything.

Party- The only annoying this about this was if you screwed up you have to wait such a long time to try again. It'd be nice if there was a skip to party option, or at least a skip week or maybe rewind sooner?

This game doesn't feel like a slop and can feel like I'm not playing a porn game. Despite its Early Access, I can see the dev can branch out the story and thr gameplay, especially with his distinct art style. 5/5

One of the best if not THE best game i've played in this kind of H games. Dev of this game doing a very good job. He's posting like 2-3 post about game progress per week which is so cool. I really wish that this game gonna progress for years (hoping u not gonna complete this game soon) in the same quality as it is now. Thank u for your work the Mr. developer.

animations- nice and smooth no frame issues and havent had any wierd bugs yet
minigames- simple and easy to understand yet rewarding and not to annoying
combat- a little lack luster but still good and fun kinda like the other rpgm but with less stuff to do

thank god for sub gig games in a world full of 200gig bull shit

9/10 need a scene and animation viewer and slight combat improvements

Excelent gameplay and graphic there. The way dev. keep upgrade his quality in work is amazing. Cant wait till next update. Hope you can upgrade the game with more characters to interact with. There's plenty of expanable elements in this games so far. The interaction is well developed with some challenges not that you will immediately get to the point. Very detailed in characters design and also UI.

this game is incredible. it has actually good roguelike elements that make playing very fun. lots of different options. I wish the overview went a little more in depth because at first it seems like some of those quick litle games but its actually got a surprising amount of depth.

Could use more content, and some of the affection events should be repeatable through a gallery or using the rewind future. The game is pretty simple, and it has a somewhat fun gameplay loop. Definitely needs a proper ending though, nothing fancy, but just something other than being sent to the menu. Would also greatly appreciate a second Yuna footjob...

Fun game with not too much content at the moment. I like the setting and the somewhat skittish redhead that you have to warm up to you. It's somewhat wacky and it seems to scratch the monkey part of the brain.
It is held back somewhat though by a very, very grindy early game experience where you need a least three expensive/rare books and study for three days to level one skill for one point. You have to level up all your skills multiple times before they are high enough to get you trough some skill checks.
There is a running mini-game where you can fight and get some random items and tiny amount of cash which is sorta interesting BUT... It is turn based combat with every action narrated with multiple screens of slowly scrolling text, after fighting multiple opponents this gets insanely tedious. You can scroll trough it quickly but there is a chance you will get a new item and you'll skip the one time description.
IMO scrolling text is already a no-no, but in a game that is all about grind and repeating the same encounters again and again it is especially cruel.
Tbh, the balancing is like those mobile phone pay to win apps, where you can theoretically do it the hard way but they just really want you frustrate you into buying stuff. Only here we have cheats for subscribers.
Still 4 stars as I think it the game play loop can still be salvaged with more ways to gain experience, like still giving some pity exp for failed skill checks so encounters are not completely useless until the "end-game".
And for the love of all that is holy remove t.h.e..s.c.r.o.l.l.i.n.g..t.e.x.t..e.f.f.e.c.t. it doesn't look cool, it is just annoying.

Very fun game play loop. If you're looking for a sleeping sim type game, this is a must play. Interesting take on a pseudo-roguelike regression system, as you go back in time every 14 days. I thoroughly enjoy the art style and animations of this game. Looking forward to more updates from the dev

Fairly intersting concept and also good technical execution, but held back by other aspects. Could be a gem if the actual gameplay wasn’t so unfair and unbalanced.

There’s basically no grace period at the start, so you get thrown into events with weak starting stats and end up failing almost every check. This, in turn, costs you stamina or other resources, and you'll be punished further if you run out of those.

The dev needs to rethink some of the balancing, or give us more ways to level up/earn xp in the early game.

Solid game so far! The concepts are solid, the game play loop is pretty decent and there was a feel of progression throughout. It felt just a tad grindy but overall enjoyable. Popped the game on v.3.1.2 last night and spent a solid 4-5 hours going throught it. Some parts were slightly confusing but I learned things naturally as the game progressed which was really cool (patting the head to reduce wakefulness, messing with the thermo). Can't wait to see where the game goes!

Also, the dev seems very active on the disc. Hopped in to see what was going on and they were just streaming hsdxd to chat and talking about the game lol.

Fantastic game. Some small detriments, but it is in active development and a lot of concerns get addressed pretty promptly so I have very high hopes for it. As it is it's already probably one of the best sleep games out there, though that probably speaks more to how niche this genre is than anything. Highly recommend.

It's in v0.3.1.2 as of this review:
- The running segments are fine but really if I have to choose between running + some rudimentary combat vs the nighttime gameplay I'm certainly not gonna run.
- Nighttime content is awesome. It's the main appeal of the game anyways so it makes sense. Starts off somewhat simple and you can get upgrades and items that give you more time and more options.
- Daytime content is surprisingly not bad. Aside from the running which I talked about before. There are a few relationship events with Yuna currently which are somewhat nice and wholesome in a bit of contrast to the lowkey fucked up shit you do at night, and you can level up your stats and whatever so you can get better upgrades. Most importantly, daytime is usually pretty quick and painless so you don't gotta bother with too much crap before you get to the goodies.
- New drinking day, a little brutal but its quite a bit of content. Strip poker is kinda nice, the other events are a little fun.
- content. Not a whole lot to see here at this point in time but I'm already a big fan.

the goat, cant wait for 3.2. Came from itch, appreciate the site recommendation too.

Must play if you like games with good balance between actual gameplay and lewd stuff, plus active developer. The overviewis too short for how goated the game is lmao
