Unity - Completed - Tamer Vale [v1.8.2] [PixelBee]

The porn is like a 3/5, but I'd rate it 4 since I really like the pixel art. The scenes are pretty repetitive but very well made, albeit short. I'm also annoyed how they changed the healer's design, which is sad because IMO that was the hottest character. The gameplay is also a 4, but very enjoyable. It's one of those games that I found myself just zoning out and playing through in a few hours while having a pretty good time. The balance is shit, and you can only really do a couple builds per character which is sad. You've got a maximum of 10 hours of gameplay, 4-5 to complete the game and get all the scenes. I just wish they'd give the healer her old sprite back, add more cards for more playstyles, add more scenes, and add more levels.

Edit: A year later and this game is quite a disappointment. The devs decided to try to make a porn game balanced instead of adding new scenes, of which this game was already quite lacking. If you really like slay the spire and pixel porn, go for it, but if not just download a save and view the scenes for a quick fap.

Just finished the game, it's almost perfect, 9.5/10, the only thing missing is more porn and a narrative, The dev focus too much on tentacles, I wish this have male to female sex, and some kind of mini plot/narration to know what's going on in this world and why having tentacle sex upgrade the cards, what kind of rituals is that and the lore behind all of that, would be could.

It's fun. Clean, competent, and pretty. Any card roguelike enjoyer should play this. Anyone into elves, interspecies, and pixel art should too. I don't like elves or interspecies and I think the enemy art is far better than the girl's art, so the H part of the Hgame does nothing for me and I still liked playing it. Solving each build and seeing the potential alternative is enjoyable with more thought needing to be put from Warrior to Priest to Rogue. The difficulty is tuned to beginners of the genre, with me having played Slay the Spire and Lost Chapter, I cleared each run with 200+ gold at all times no matter how much I bought upgrades and removed basic cards. I think beginners would really enjoy this one, and veterans will only find difficulty in guessing how future cards will synergize with the fundamentals. The special X factor mechanic in the Skills works very well with enemies for telegraphing what they are all about, but I believe is far too overpowered for the player. Given that Bonus money is not needed once you have 300+ in the bank by stage 2, stalling to fill that Skill gauge and use heal cards becomes incentivized. Paying to skip cards instead of getting money to skip cards I think would work at making every bit of gold worth trying to get, incentivizing clearing battles at the expense of health moreso than what is already clearly the game design.
The battle speed should be at 2x as standard and should keep the setting you choose globally between sessions and runs (it currently does not).
The low pixel count on the sex animations I think is to blame why the sex scenes just do nothing for me. There's something missing and I'm just making a guess at that. I would buy 10$ DLC if there's ever challenge modes, cards, or a new character added.

Came for the pron, stayed for the gameplay. The animation is good but the gameplay is where this excels. I honestly would enjoy this game even without the sexual content. Very well designed card based rpg.

Like most reviewers pointed out, there's not much on the adult content side of things, but I personally don't mind.

Regarding the gameplay, you basically run a character through what feels like a static campaign map. You fight the same 3 bosses in the same order, and even the regular enemies you fight seem to be fixed. What's more, there barely seems to be a difference between the branching paths you can take. You get more than enough health and card upgrades, so the only paths of value are ones that increase your skill effect (which you should prioritize) or where a shopkeeper pops up (where you can spam refresh for card removal and fish for better cards if you're desperate). The balance of each deck is okay. You'll probably have no problem beating the campaign using each character so long as you abstain from picking cards you can't immediately use. Oppositely, you shouldn't bother paying coins early in to upgrade cards, since you'll have ample opportunities to for free, and you really don't need that many card upgrades to get the ball rolling. Speaking of coins, there's no point in going out of your way to collect or horde it. You can only spend it on the shopkeeper, and you only see her like 2 or 3 times per map. I suppose you can spend coins to refresh her inventory, but you don't need anything too fancy to make an effective deck.

What's keeping me from rating this 5 stars is that the gameplay has a solid foundation for a much larger game, but makes no effort to actually build on it. For example, there's no story explaining why a bunch of skimpy elves are trying to tame monsters and why they have to kill the shit out of everything else to do it. There's no explanation for why upgrades come in the form of tentacle sex. There's no explanation for why all three needs to get the same exact monsters. Like previously mentioned, you pick up more gold than you can spend and the experience is somewhat static. Certainly, it's better than average attempts at a deck builder I've seen, but it's nowhere as engaging as it could have been. The decision to lock characters and skills behind "levels" seems like an arbitrary one, mimicking another well known deck builder I'm sure other reviewers have mentioned. If this game was meant to be enjoyed as a light snack, all characters and skills should have been available from the beginning. New cards being gradually unlocked would have been fine, but for its current content, I probably won't play it more than once per character just to see how each deck works.

P.S. Character XP is based on score, which in turn is affected by many rounds you take to win a fight. Unfortunately, slow decks means much slower progress.

Been excited and wasn't disappointed. Played the developer's previous game Zetria and enjoyed the experience. This game provided me vibes and the same feelings I gotten from Slay the Spire. Meaning the game is addicting, although less complicated still fun.

I saw this game art long time ago and I was fascinated, but this is what we have here. A porn game is about porn, not this. The battles are repeated farming, the sex animations are poor. Only the erotic characters do the job. I'm sorry, I buy porn games but not this.

really fun game, and nicely balanced
The amount of H scene feel a bit lacking, maybe more H related status and standing sprite would be good.
But the graphic, arts and animation are very good.
look forward to this dev's next work

The artstyle is slightly getting weighed down by the boring gameplay. The porn is the same three tentacle animations every 6 minutes on each character. Final boss animations are not worthwhile, mainly because nothing moves on the characters, nothing jiggles, and everything looks stiff/rock solid even though they're getting pounded.

Gameplay is ok. If you're looking for a slay the spire knockoff with a dash of saucy-ness you'll be in a good spot. But keep in mind a run is probably going to be an hour. It's not easy but it's not bone-crushingly hard. Which is good because you're trying to play while hard.

This game is really good.
All the three different characters having a unique style with unique cards to their playstyle.

With the first one being the most basic if you played slay the spire this will suit you the most. Relying on basic attacks and building strength buffs to do a lot of damage in a short amount of time. Also relying on potions to gain extra energy and to regain health

The second one is a summoner relying on spirits that they summon to deal their damage. They also have constant healing since their healing cards do not expire unlike other characters. You can keep one spirit alive and continually boost it to slowly build power over the course of the round or spawn multiple spirits to deal quick burst of damage.

The third one is a potion brewer who specializes in making four different types of potions, healing, stun, strength, and poison based on the ingredients that you get from scavenging from your cards. Your cards determine on how powerful the potion is. You can also hide which is absolutely overpowered negating even the most powerful attacks to only take 2-3 damage. This is definitely the most overpowered character.

If this complexity of the game applies to you then you might enjoy it if it doesn't you won't.

The hentai scenes are pixel art entailing mostly tentacles and bestiality. They might not be for anyone and requires beating the game with all the characters. This can be challenging but it is worth it if you are up for the challenge.

With all of these details and the mastery of the mechanics that you can achieve in the game makes it a 5/5.

Run of the mill lewd game. The very few scenes (about a dozen, which isn't a lot) that are in game aren't really worth this slay the spire knockoff gameplay. The sex scenes occur only during healing spots and when you defeat a boss. Which makes each run (that could go on for about 20-30 mins) have about 3 unique lewd encounters. And yeah, enemies do not try to fuck you, most of them don't even look remotely horny. Keep lookin' guys, this one ain't worth it.

Honestly pretty damn cool, the mechanics all work and never felt bored playing lewd slay the spire. The downfalls really come down to the lewd content is literally 1 smexy loop and that's it, and there's only like 5 per playable character. So good while it lasts fun wise but if you're looking for fap material this isn't it.

tldr: just play for a sluttier version of slay the spire

Truly this game is pretty awesome, never knew I wanted lewd slay the spire before, but here I am. I'd really like some defeat animations against some of the basic enemies and maybe more dominant positions for when the bosses are being tamed. Heck I'd love to see optional scenes after beating regular enemies too but that's just my dick talking. Good stuff though and I look forward to this being smoothed out, if it gets to slay the spire tier I'd be a die hard fan.

Eh, it was fun while it lasted.
Basically a clone of Slay the Spyre in it's early days, with the 3 archetypes - Juggernaut, Summoner, Poisoner. Takes about 2+ hours per complete run on each, and you unlock 17 nice tentacle or monster fuck animations.

As i didn't do any grinding , I enjoyed my time with it, but card unlocks can be a bit slow for completionists (only completion I cared about was the gallery)

Somehow they managed to make a rogue-like cardgame boring. How is that even possible? It's clunky, it drags and there its very basic in build variety.

Porn is very detached from the gameplay itself, which is literally the purpose of a "porn game". Might as well just watch the gallery and call it.

Art is decent but has very stiff animations.

Damn, art style is great and it shows that a lot of work was put into this game, but before finishing the first run I was already bored of the enemies and deck... With little to no incentive to repeat with another strategy as there is not many customization of the playstile. Sex scenes are good for an aperitive, but not enough to justify the tedium.

It's a rougelite deckbuilder. It does roguelite deckbuilder things. Are they some great advancements in the rougelite deckbuilder sphere? No, but they're still perfectly serviceable, the art is good, and the porn mostly comes at a good pace.

That being said unless it really catches you, probably don't don't particularly want to do playthroughs with all three characters, and really wouldn't pay the 20 dollars they've got it going for on steam if I was actually inclined to pay for this stuff.

There was a lot of work put into it, but the end result is... boring.

It's a lot like the other game by this dev, Zetria, in many regards. For lack of a better word, it's basic. Yes, it's got actual card-based combat, but it's not really FUN. The cards aren't exciting, and deck management is pretty restricted (either of those are fine by themselves, but not both at the same time). Enemies aren't diverse enough. Sex scenes are short. There is no story, there's no justification for porn, i.e. the girls fuck tentacles and receive upgrades as a result of that just because (just like in Zetria).

Honestly, playing felt like a chore to me that I needed to complete to write this here review (can't do it without playing properly, can I?) Three stars it is, meh.

an excellent triple H and a really well done card game, too bad for the graphics that are sometimes too pixelated and the lack of cards, it would be nice to add booster packs to unpack that drop a series of H-themed cards or certain sectors (attack , shield, etc.etc.) it would be nice for the summoner to summon themed hosts of (skeletons, big cock dragons and exodia/egypt) the possibility of expansion is unlimited 10/10
