Unity - Under Contract [v0.5.0] [Kinky Fridays]

I don't prefer the gameplay genre, but I try not to let that bias my review. This game has wit and character, and the scarcest of specimens in H-games -- a likeable protagonist! The attractive art style further emphasizes character The animations are quite erotic, though they could have varied for consistency with the textual description rather than repeat the same frames throughout. I don't normally like to read others' sex scenes, so the fact that I found it brief yet entertaining enough to follow is a plus.

I like match 3 puzzle games, I like porn games. I like demon girls, I like this game
The animations looks pretty good and original, I like the puzzle game aspect of it. The dialogue is funny. Only thing I don't really like is how weird moving around the stages are

This is less of a porn game and more of a mediocre match-3 game that has porn tacked on as an afterthought.

What's the difference? Partially the ratio of porn to gameplay, partially whether or not the gameplay is used to set up the porn scenes so that it's a better experience than just looking at the gallery. Under Contract is primarily concerned with coming up with excuses to do more mediocre match-3 gameplay and sometime tosses you a bone for completing them. There's not any sexy setup. It's just "good job now you have sex with your opponent who you haven't been given a reason to care about."

As far as the writing goes, it's little more than an excuse to justify the next round of match-3. Characters are there and say and do things, jokes are made, but it's all just going through the motions. It would almost be better if the writing sucked because then it would impact your emotional state.

The art and animations are pretty good but if the dev can't figure out how to do video streaming I'd rather just have stills instead of waiting 5-10 seconds for the game to load between every single scene- and this is on an NVMe drive. Even without that problem the art wouldn't be enough to salvage the experience.

In conclusion: meh.

Cool game with Ace Attorney inspired frames to express emotions. Gameplay is match 3 which isnt really my cup of tea but they made it somewhat enjoyable. Characters are all quite intersting and consistent

[Written during the demo, hopefully the devs will improve it so this review age well]

Honestly I like the overall aesthetic of the game, being outright described as "hellish office job warped into an actual hell", with all the characters given some sort of dark scheme or demonic theme, but mostly corperate. And the landscape being some sort of Final Fantasy rock platform with occasional office furnishing that fits surprisingly well, not to mention the good fucking music the game provided, no more generic copyright-free music baby!

People have been talking about the character design and the expressions, I gotta say it's goddamn good. Everyone's design and mannerism tells you exactly who they are, and the dialogues only add to their character, even if some of them confuses me. Like is it supposed to be a reference or a pun with the MC being called a "Manion?" But I think the some character designs can look similar at times, like the ones introduced in the Kickstarter page; I think they can look better, as long as it doesn't stray from the artstyle.

But speaking of uninteresting, you know what is? The gameplay. It's just match-3 but with haply some opponents or little minor mechanics; like a bigger stage, some rocks you have to match, and a lazer gun you can shoot, but that's it. It gets old real quick even with the difficulty starting to rise up, while the devs did came up with some variety to the game, only time will tell if they will be fun or frustrating for the game, but personally I welcome changes no matter what it is as long as it isn't just an orb with a different skin.

Though being a sex game, I wonder how much sexual content is gonna be added to the game. While there's all kinds of "puzzle" sex games all around the Steam market, they're used very sparingly and doesn't make it feel like it's worth it to play through 5 hours of sliding puzzles to get to that 1 Live2D animation the game has. While I might be asking too much, I hope there's more than 1 sex scene per character, even for how small the game is. For a starter, the female demon minions you encounter throughout the map, how about some scenes assigned to them in the future?

All and all, the game got potential and is way more polished than most other puzzle games I've seen on this site, but it's got its own share of flaws that need to be fixed ASAP. Hopefully the Kickstarter goal will be reached soon should you decided to extend it, or at least enough funding to help improve the game...

ok ok art is good game story seam to be ok but fuck is super harsh before you can even see some NSFW scene

so if you are looking for a hot game this is not the game for you. I mean the core game is not that interesting it seams to be a cheap copy of candy crush

Cool game,you basically grab gems smash them together and try to make them not touching the base. Later you get special removal and stones you can only smash against other stones. Also very nice animations when you beat a boss. Story is also alright, this is just the demo for the full version you have to pay but its pretty nice as far as demos go.

(Reviewing the demo)

Personally, I think the graphics, story and gameplay are all top-notch. I like the idea of what the developer is creating, and adding to the fact that this is a porn game from what I must assume is a first-time developer that has no bugs is like finding the needle in a bug-infested haystack.

However, as you can guess from my rating, I have one teeny, tiny, minuscule problem with the current game...

HOLY SHIT THE SWEATY TRYHARD ESSENCE I GET FROM PLAYING THIS GAME!

The fact that I'm having difficulty beating the levels on what is essentially the tutorial world makes me dread what the other levels are going to be like.

You're given almost no time to think and you cant just restart and make a strategy to help defeat a difficult mission because the missions are randomly generated, meaning it's mostly based on skill and luck.

Now I hear you random stranger shouting "git gud" and yeah you're probably right, I am probably shit at this... but I wanna remind you, I came here to scratch that itch, not get sweaty.

My dick went looking for an adventure and came home with erectile PTSD and gets panic attacks from any 3-of-a-kinds.

First of all, holy shit. The character design, both the girls and the male MC, top notch. Absolutely phenomenal designs here with fantastic facial expressions that ooze personality. The plot, while simple, is fun and quirky and gives you plenty of reason to continue forward. The girls personalities are begging to be UNO Reverse card dominated, so I hope its not entirely a sub game. The gameplay is actually really fun. The character models and premise drew me in, begrudgingly, because match 3's are often a slog, but it was actually rather exciting and fast paced here, with enough diversity and challenge to make it an enjoyable experience, that I would partake in it even without the promise of nsfw reward. The nsfw here is sort of...choppy? But I actually really like this design choice, it gives it a sort of 'comic' or old school arcade type of feel, that you don't really see anywhere else, I hope they stay this way! This Demo is 100% worth the play, even it only has one scene so far, because its just plain fun. Looks like the game will be 9.99 when completed as well, at least so far, and that would honestly be a fantastic price for the quality and enjoyment here. Highly recommend, and I hope the full game will live up to what the demo here promises.
