    Unfortunate Adventure [v0.0.5 Public] [NoMoCo]
    "Dystopian Isekai world shaped by your desires"

    Your travel to a mysterious world which is filled with various creatures, maybe made up of your own subconscious fever dream in this mysterious world covered with a shroud of secrets.
    The story is heavily dependent on your unique character traits and points and turns in the direction that your stats point you to.

    Gameplay and Mechanics
    Point and click game where the whole screen is your playground, click on random books or lights to understand the depth of the world.
    There is a stat check for every interaction and dialogue, locking you or allowing you to have certain choices, depending on your build.
    These choices will have a further branching as the story evolves, but in the current state, it's very limited

    Story
    Story seems like a straight up adaptation of a Japanese Anime storyline and tropes, where you are teleported to another dimensional world, where you basically restart you life with a newly gained traits and powers.
    Strong emphasis on balance of existential loneliness and finding a place in the clockwork of the world and carnal desire of animalistic male gaze which is further contrasted in choices depending on your submissive mind in a society with no power in indiviuals hand.
    You find new unique characters in a magical, house which seems to be made by progressive map of your own brain, these roommates have their own goals and traits which evolve over your interactions, but currently very limited.


    Characters
    You select your characters various traits, 12 in total which are interlinked and shape your interactions.
    2 "roommates" who are contrast in their behavior, with more promised in the future

    Graphics and Sound
    Amazing unique art style, expanding the emphasis on the current interaction and state of mind of the MC.
    Isometric world with detailed environment, and each character have a unique extension of their dimension which reflects thier mental state too.

    Replay Value
    Potentially a lot of paths based of the stats based interaction and the branching paths.
    but currently, not much.

    Personal Opinion
    Something unique in a while, with great art and emphasis on art that reflects mental state of the mc, from a dystopian factory like world to a tranquil inner rooms of the fantasy house.
    But personally I have a feeling the full potential of the concept wont be fulfilled as its too ambitious but I wont but against it either.

    Pros:
    • amazing art style
    • unique adaption of an isekai
    • Concept of every interaction based of various stats.

    Cons:
    • reworking the stats system, as most dialogues are skill locked
    • No sex, only orc tits
    • No Dialogue rollback
    • no saves in between episodes
    • clusterfuck of stats, can be too complex

    Potential Additions:
    • More sex
    • more characters

    Must admit, if you play this demo you will hate yourself because you will be mad its just a tech demo. This is yet another game with interesting potential that is slightly scratching the dnd/fallout itch where you have stats that come into play during dialogue. I truly wish there was more to this than it is because this is really playing with my emotions.

    As of right now...
    I like the conversation and the way things are highlighted.
    Love that there is a muscle mommy orc already.
    Love that the mc isnt a twink or manlet
    Mc while looking for sex or thinks about it at times, isn't just looking to fuck everything instantly

    issues...
    Dialogue can be a bit wordy
    No rolling back in case you accidently speed pass dialogue
    Dislike the incremental dialogue (starts than stops to start again in the same text box)
    Speaking of the text box, i dislike where its placed
    Sometimes the dialogue is too slow and sometimes too fast which has you skipping some text by accident
    Not a spec of sex in the demo
    No character creator (hoping that is a possible added feature)
    IT ENDS ABRUPTLY

    AGAIN I STRESS..regardless of my gripes, this is interesting and I hope something comes of this...

    Klaptrap

    Review of the [tech demo] version.
    Isekai; Unfortunate Adventures certainly comes out swinging, even if the concept is not super original. You are a random nobody, transferred under mysterious circumstances to another dimension we know very little about. The act of doing so has made you powerful in a way that simultaneously limits you to a handful of the same rooms.
    The story has some minors elements of Lovecraft present, although our character doesn't seem to notice these direct references. The rest has a melancholic tint to it, talking a lot about their lack of structure and struggles with loneliness, but so far not to the point that it becomes depressing. At the very least, I'm interested in knowing what is going to happen next.
    The main mechanic, so far, seems to be a stat system similar to a popular indie game from some years ago. It automatically rolls checks and allows you to make a few choices that, at this point, seem to only lead to slightly rephrased version of what you'd already say. I hope this continues to be expanded upon, but it's only a question if the result will be worth the effort or if the whole thing will be quietly scaled back in later updates.
    No sex scenes so far, but the characters shown and promised look distinct enough that I'm looking forward to what may come.

    Very interesting tech demo. The lovecraftian nature is quite intriguing to me. I enjoyed a lot where the developer went with the characters having a non standard orc design and the future anthromorphic lion character.

    My only advice to the developer is stick to your passions and vision. Don't let patreons sway you into making another generic game to add to the pile.
