Wow. Going in my expectations weren't that high. I thought it would be yet another generic molester game. And... it kind of is, but it's also got that oomph that makes this a great game.
Story 4/10
I don't speak MTLglish so I can only roughly understand the story. You're a molester, obviously, and you're molesting this girl because you find no purpose in life otherwise.
With each bad end, you get a glimpse of some alternate reality. You get stabbed or die in many of them by some other unknown individual. Then in the "Perfect Bad End" it's revealed that you're the savior and in the hospital, but also the molester? It really doesn't make sense.
The only other story aspect to consider is the girl. She's extremely stubborn. Hence why you can molest her and she won't say anything. And really, that's what makes this game so good. This game is a psychological mind domination game. And domination is only fun when there's a challenge.
Gameplay 9/10
Really really good gameplay. It was actually quite fun to play. There's a little bit of grind but it just adds to the gameplay experience since you look forward to what will be unlocked.
The core gameplay loop is that you're on a train and every action will advance the time (there's a time limit per day). And depending on the action, you raise suspicion. If you max out suspicion, then it's game over. But it's not really game over because you can start over from day 1 with all progress maintained.
What is progress? The girl has multiple hidden attributes that changes depending on your actions. Her resistance to certain actions depends on these hidden attributes and you unlock actions depending on these attributes.
Does this sound tedious and annoying? No, it's great! The game has a minor grind curve but there's always new dialogue options and the character has progressed reactions to the same interactions. You're always making progress and it's exciting discovering new things you can do and new reactions you can see.
There's three phases to daily interactions and you start with the first phase. And let me tell you, unlocking the third phase like X-mas all over again. Emphasis on the XXX if you know what I meant.
Art 8/10
At the end of the day, there's 3 poses. But you know what? It works. It's a 2D model but it looks 3D and there's tons of animations. Since the transitions between animations are so flawless and continuous, it looks 3D. The animations really sells the art.
When the girl gets really going her face turns red and she starts shaking. And everything else in between.
The art style itself is okay-ish, not 100% my type but I like it.
Oh, and there's voice acting. Always a really nice touch.
Overall 8/10
I think I got around 10 hours of gameplay out of this game. Unfortunately, like a good 30% of that time was me waiting for the online MTL translation. Even then, this game is pretty top of the line.
Couple ways to improve is to have a better storyline. The whole mystery/time paradox thing doesn't really add to the game at all. Another improvement would be to have a better post-end game.
The post-end game is actually the girl changing over from resisting to being loving with voiced dialogue lines and all. But that transition is an option box you check and it doesn't make sense at all from the story perspective. Everything else in the game is earned and makes sense, but that final switch to loving doesn't fit in at all.
That being said, I thought I was starting to lose interest in h-games. But just wow. This game is like viagra.
