    This is better than all the Star Wars garbage from the last three decades. Fraction of the budget. Imagine if the reigns should belonged to you Mortze... wow that capture, the stills of distraught, the depth you've intertwined. Nicely done and hope to see more of this.

    Wow, Thank you. The story is better than some episodes of the real SW. The characters are deep and sex scenes are engaging. I'm afraid I have feelings for Drea and fell for Kleio . Animations could be better, but it's a solid 5 for me. Thank you guys

    Simply incredible and the most Star War themed AVN I've seen. The plot is a breath of fresh air and with purpose. The worldbuilding is excellent, like you are truly in a Star Wars universe. The renders, specially renders of the world around you, is amazing.

    The only cons I can think of are the animation. They are very wonky. Lastly, I just wanna say I love my man Nbit.

    Story is good take on Star Wars world with sexual twist. First episode is pretty poor on sexual content (unless on alien route), but it is still fun to read. In second episode things start to get more steamy. Sadly the conversation options are pretty rare overall and it feels like you don´t get the full intended experience if you don´t check all the paths. This makes it feel like there is no "different paths", just kinetic novel with different scenes you either check or don´t.
    Overall the story takes itself little too seriously and by that, reduces erotic content too much to be five star AVN for me.

    Writing is good. All the women have different demeanor, but also more complex backstories. At this moment, none of the main girls have raised as a main interest for me, but as a sexual partners they all surprised positively. Even the baddies have looks and personality that make me wanna get to know them better. The small sidekick also does create surprisingly fun situations.

    Visually game is great. EP1 is little rough looking, but EP2 looks a lot better. Best tits handling in any AVN. Loved how every women have details that separate them from each other. Those details also separate these women from regular perfect plastic dolls that most AVNs have. Animations are your old style version and look somewhat basic with just few frames.

    SWM: The Lurking Shadow is hands-down the BEST adult visual novel in the Star Wars universe I've ever played.
    You're plunged into a galaxy far, far away that feels 100% authentic to the Star Wars saga. The lore, tone, and epic vibes are spot-on. At just the right length (played it in one sitting!). If you love Star Wars, this is MANDATORY.

    It truely blows my mind how a game like this has gotten so many 5 star rating, i mean for what?

    average renders?
    poor animations?
    weird choice system where going after the jedi/force girl forces you to fuck some wierd bimbo you dont even know?
    Story without any kind of ending?

    Fake completed tag using a shitty excuse that chapter is done, thats not a completed game in any way or form, just a single chapter and if dev abandon it and wont finished the story then game is abandoned not completed and shouldent be tagged as such.

    Story was pretty decent but nothing else was, i dident really like the girls they are all bimbos and i dont care for big tit fetish, so it would need alot better diversity in builds to stand a chance to be good, also theres only like 3-4 sex scenes and they arent good in any way either.

    Theres no music but there are sound effects which are ok but still silent most times.

    It could have had potential if dev dident abandon it after just a single chapter but it is what it is and theres just no way this would warrent anything but 2 star rating at best, maybe if game gets completed and by that i mean story then i would revisit and edit review but considering theres only an hours worth of playtime in this and its 5 years old, then i wouldent expect to ever see this getting anywhere.

    Jedis, Empire, droids, ass and titties! LFG! Great start to great story. Love the accuracy of the SW universe. Animations are very good, renders are great, lore is accurate and you get to bang alien.... yes you should play this one.
    And if nothing else at least you get the start of a brand new SW story albeit lewd af. Can't wait to see how far this goes.

    What a short but excellent VN, this would be easily my favorite novel so far, but sadly is just one episode, but what a great episode, great work and visuals. So much potential, and i think that the developers could continue this story to make one of the best games ever

    The writing is honestly better than any recent Disney Star Wars garbage (aside from Andor). The story has great potential. Characters are very believable SW characters, and I liked most characters design. Overall I enjoyed it despite being pretty short AVN. Eagerly waiting for the next game, hope there is a next game.

    What a great game to play! The story is very interesting, the dialogs are believable, the characters are likable. What more, the women are very nice, without strange proportions. I wouldn't mind more sex involved but you can't have anything? The fast progress to check all paths is great. I lack music and animations wasn't good. But overall I really hope that second part will come out.

    I played it a long time ago and cant exactly muster the proper words so I will let others do a whole indepth review.
    Pretty interesting story overall. Everything it does it does rather well, except some characters could have been written better. However, this game feels like (and should probably be) the intro chapter of a real completed story. It currently has ~1 hour of playtime and ends on a cliffhanger. The shortness means there also isn't much plot development.In summary, a game with a good deal of potential that may never be realized.

    It's a true shame that this game will most likely never get more than this episode because my god if it doesn't have the potential to become just the best damn VN in this website.

    Outstanding models that aren't too bizarre, pretty good writing, an interesting plot and overall great renders.

    A super compelling first view of what could've been. I know the author has made plenty of other games, but I'm sorry to say I doubt they'll hit me as hard as this one just for the fact it's incomplete.

    This should really be re categorized as abandoned. You wouldn't call one chapter of a book complete, would you? That's pretty much what we've got here. It's very misleading to tag it as complete.

    Overall, the game is alright. The writing is pretty good, but the renders are a bit crunchy at times, and there are lots of typos. It probably would have been a great game if it had more than one introductory chapter's worth of content. As it stands now, though, it's not worth playing.

    Cool concept, executed poorly in my opinion and quite short. Sparse dialogue, plenty of typos, sparse "action," and sex animations were subpar.

    Worst of all, for me, was that I went through this game under the impression it was a finished story and found it was in fact, literally, an unfinished and abandoned story. It's ~30 minutes of character and story establishment without any payoff, the exact thing I wanted to avoid by searching for "completed" games.

    Read through the comments and while I understand the technical arguments as to why this game is marked as "complete," it's nevertheless frustrating.

    Abandonware in the guise of a completed intro chapter. Good characters and concept, that essentially is all promise and kinda no payoff.

    The "game" is maybe 1-2 hours of dialogue, assuming you check out multiple options. After that its wait for ep2! forever. 2 stars might be overly harsh, but I filtered by completed game being sick of the "all premise no payoff" abandoned ideas. This was just one more of them, although a bit higher quality, hense the 2nd star.

    In the words of admiral ackbar, "Its a trap!"

    I should give a zero star. Where's episode 2 and further maybe . The writing is so good that I collected quotations from the script.Democracy is the antithesis of order.
    I see it's been four fucking years. So, nobody is going to hear me.

    ... Wait what?
    I mean, I was expecting a fine adult game in the star wars universe.
    Instead, I got an interesting and developed story, allies and enemies with a background, funny-but-not-annoying sidekicks, nice visuals, and i'm now craving for episode 2 ?! It's a tr-

    It's short and got no music, and despite it, it's a hard recommandation on my part. Hehe, hard *throat clearing*

    Engaging story in my favorite universe of Star Wars. Great renders and beautiful models.
    I enjoyed playing it very much, writing is also very solid.
    That's a pity we are not going to get next part in near future.
    Gonna enjoy other Dev's games in a meantime.

    P.S. The only weird thing in a game was MC's fixation on anal, it's really strange, especially for a virgin, but whatever.

    The game is short but if you love star wars that this game is a must play. Great looking characters and beautiful aliens chick makes this game unique and worth playing for scenes with them :). A plot and narrative are not that great but if you are for scenes than i recomend to play it.
