Dropping a review because I really really felt the needed to give this gem 5 stars. I will come to the review of the general points of the game but first and foremost: This game is worth the download and even the ~12 dollars.
1. The gameplay: 5/5
The gameplay is very simple, you shoot arrows (holding the button for shotting arrows will give you the opportunity to change the angle of where to shoot it), slashing with a sword, jumping, walking and crouching. Yet these simple mechanics can be used in interesting ways when it comes to boss fights with specific mechanics, and even regular enemies which have particular way of defeating them (don't wanna spoil too much but for example later there is an enemy type with a shield). So overall this part of the game is very solid.
2. The visuals: 10/5
Not only the pixel sprite animation and standing pic changes during H-scenes are of high quality, the levels in particular are absolutely stunning. The enemies look very spooky and disgusting (which doesn't exclude the fact that they are very well drawn) which is also a plus since the game is themed that way. I don't often see H-games which not only score high in the scene department, but also in the visuals of the level design etc. so this really stands out here.
3. The sounds: 5/5
The protagonist is voice acted during scenes and combat, which I really enjoyed (same goes for all the nasty creatures). The soundtracks and the background sound of the area really emphazise the horror feeling of the game.
4. The story: 3/5
There are no dialouges in this game, which makes it hard to follow the porpuse of the whole journey (at least for me, correct me if I'm wrong). At the end the whole journey and buildup will make sense in the end, but overall the story isn't particularly important nor does it need to make a whole lot of sense since the game rather focuses on the horror feeling than making sense storywise.
I conclude this in saying again this game is a masterpiece and the developer is working on making a sequel of it, so stay hyped for that.
