RPGM - Completed - Unholy Maiden [v1.06] [Unit 03]

Great game with interesting characters and strong adult content. The story is engaging, visuals are well made, and scenes are attractive. Some parts could be improved, but overall it is a solid experience.

Unholy Maiden is a game clearly worked with a lot of love. There are so many little details in the game. The Character Sprite changes with what you wear and the different status effects given to the player, Going through a narrow passage changes the sprite so you only see the heroines ass, as she crawls through a tight space.

This is a game that also rewards properly exploring the environment. Nothing is quite fully explained to the player and we are left in a sandbox to interact in. For some other F95 users this is a dealbreaker, since they just want to get to the sexy scenes asap, without fully exploring the game mechanics. This is a mistake though. For example, most H-Scenes are locked behind an item called Amaryllis Flowers, a respawnable resource you can get by exploring the dungeon of the game. However if you explore each different shopkeeper, you will find a stall that sells flowers for a reasonable price but at a limited stock per day. As a result you can just simply take a break from dungeon crawling and spend the entire day interacting with NPCs in town if you wish.

To add to the exploration aspect, the only way to get hints about the main objective of the game is to talk to the Nun at the beginning of the game who finds you. A lot of this games design reminds me of Dark Souls, this may put off alot of casual players who are not accustomed to exploring a sandbox with only vague instructions about what to do.

One Aspect I dislike is the use of Blowjob Faces for the heroine. I have no problems with ugly blowjob faces , but this game kinda takes the blowjob face anatomy to the extreme. It looks very comical.

In Summary, This game is a very well fleshed out Hentai Game with game mechanics similar to Dark Souls in many ways. The game does not handhold you and alot of mechanics are just simply unexplained until you take the time to try to understand them fully by exploring the environment. For alot of casual players this is a turnoff but I appreciate the the developer for respecting the intelligience of players.

The good:

+There are a lot of CG's, all of them well drawn and barely reused. Some scenes uses differents outfits depending on your job, but the majority will still use her default blue leotard or full nude.
+The customization of your MC is pretty cool, although could be better with some exclusive dialogues. There's plenty of combinations of backstorys + starting traits to design your unholy maiden, most of them giving pretty useful passives, both for roleplaying and for lewdplaying.
+Pretty hefty rooster of NPC's, each one with their own story and development during the game. This helps a lot to make the game seems alive, hopefully we will get more of them within the next updates/DLC's.
+Plenty of systems that are easy to understand, so there are no time wasting in learning game mechanics.
+The story is well written and don't waste your time with bloated text; It gives you enough, the npc's talk enough.
+The combat is simple and does the job by not being annoying. You build your character, change your gears, passives and skills, and let the auto do the thing. Absolute cinema.
+It's a gorgeous game, the map design is one of my favorite things here. Everything looks beautiful, everyone acts like they belong here and the exploration is the best. I know most people are only interested in the sex and try to rush it (hence why every game we have someone asking for gallery save), and for those people, it WILL be a letdown because you need to play it as a game first, rather than a scene collector.
+The devs gonna keep working in the game, so we can expect new stuffs, scenes, systems and reworks in the foreseeable future.

The mid:

-The anal only is a scam!..kinda.. The game was clearly made with the intend to be played as either a fully virgin, a lewd girl, or just a plain whore. The anal scenes doesn't seems to be very spread throughout the game as the vaginal ones, and thats a shame, I was really looking for them. Hopefully we will get more in the next updates.
-As other people have mentioned, the dungeon exploration being gated by your fatigue, but the enemies still respawns when you change rooms is bullshit. It should change to respawn when the day changes/you take rest.
-I wish that there was more enemies that can restrain your and force into a battle fuck. Most of the sex scenes are with humans in the towns, only a few are with monsters in the dungeons.

I've been waiting this game for almost 2 years now, and honestly, it didn't dissapointed, in fact, it did delivered more that I expected (except the anal sex) and for the life of me I can't rate this less than 5 star, especially after the LAMEST year infested with so much AI slop, delayed games/updates and a drought of good RPGM, that it feels refreshing to play a GOOD game. Surely other peoples can have different experiences and expected way more than me, and I hope the devs can makes things better because this game still haven't reached its peak; its great, but can be so much better with more work put into.

Great game that I wish went further with some relationships and expanded scenes. That said the art and gameplay is very enjoyable, definitely had me edging for a long time. Big fan of the faces and more.

It been forever that I get to play such a great hentai game like this, this could be the best game to me.
The freedom when explore the world, the arts, amazing corruption, dialogues, all are top quality

There was so much hype for this.

I played this for 9 hours and i've got to say, this game has so much detail and thought put into it, every nook and cranny of this world is filled with something. Despite the fact that there is clearly some cut content, the ambition and scale of this game is vast. There is something for every fetish, multiple towns and a large dungeon labyrinth to explore, with many NPCS who do unique events. You like shota content? Go check up on the boy at the church. You like Ugly Bastard? Go interact with the men in the city like in the shop where you can sell off your human rights. There are events and questlines related to being a masseuse, prisoner, casino bunny or prostitute, etc. A fucking rarity, a lot of the content has unique CGs and art. There is an absolute buttload of customisation features, dress as nun, a warrior or some crazy naked bitch with a bucket on her head. Go fucking wild!

So why 4 stars? Despite all the polish and content this game has it is something we have all seen before. In every way it is repetitive. Repeatedly going through the same dungeon and interacting with the same NPC for each H event is a grind and a slog. There is little replay value. Throughout the whole game, you get railroaded and the customization features are pretty much locked to the class you select at game start and the clothing you wear. This game is not unique, it is part of a large collection of already existing japanese high fantasy femc rpgs and the different scenes and tropes are abused so much that it becomes tiresome and exhausting to experience again. Before I even openned this, I have already played this game many times. It's polished, it's high effort, there is a lots of shit you'd bust to and it is a relatively fun experience, but not memorable. I won't give this 5 stars like Karryn's Prison or Celesphonia. It earned a singular forced nut from me.

+Is an actual game not a scenes collector
+Sandbox with no handholding
+Dark like Lona RPG, but we got a Thicc MC instead of Loli.
+Have autocombat
+Detailed character creation; not the visual but MC backgrounds which give different starting unique passive
-Needs map
-Dungeons are filled with doors that you need a special key or need to open from the other side
-Enemies are faster than you
-Combat is not fun
-Exploration is gated by fatigue but enemies respawn if you backtrack, most of the time you will be running around without progressing

Edit: Daze modded the minimap in and Black_heart noclip cheat can bypass oneside door. The game is good as rpg with a bit of H.

Idk what some people are smoking rating this a 4 or less, especially on this website. This game is easily in the top 1%. It does everything well.

ACTUAL CLEVER QUEST DESIGN IN MY RPGM GAME?!?
ALOT OF UNIQUE SEX SCENES WITH BARELY ANY REUSED ASSETS?!
ACTUAL GAMEPLAY WITH MID BATTLE SEX THAT ISN'T AN ARTIFICIAL PNG?!
SLOW CORRUPTION THAT'S REWARDING AS HELL?!

This game is a proper rpg, this sort of auality is unprecedented in porn games.
Stop being a contrarian and saying the game doesn't live up to the hype. This is the first proper h-rpg we've gotten in ages. You dont know how amazing it feels to be able to trust a game going into every sex scene that there is gonna be a brand new scenario and unique art. Also the sheer volume of content is also amazing, it covers so much.

Good but not great:

After seeing the reviews I feel like I've been playing a different game,for me this game was going to be next big thing,the game that other devs that was going to imitate.

I got cyberpunkd again.

Its a really good hgame that brings nothing new...lemme sum it up this way

Good:
1-Mc is really fucking hot
2-You can turn your brain off and auto battle
3-Maps EVEN IN RPGM looks great.
4-sex scenes look good I guess
5-mc has a nice voice

Mid:
1-I think day and night cycle is bugged atm cuz I swear I passed a day and some scenes are still locked
2-You see scenes daily.
3-YOU CAN ONLY SEE SCENES IF YOU HAVE STUPID FLOWER THAT SPAWNS DAILY (Yes you can grind em in dungeons and in your house but still...shit sucks)
4-Why is my house only consists of 3 Vases that I can't plant what I want and a kitchen,I can think at least 10 thing you should be able to do in the house.

Bad:
1-Holy blue balls you just made me wait 2 hours for the first actuall sex scene,you have to get 60 lewd percentage to have sex...IN YOUR SEX GAME.
2-Why is there only 2 dudes that I can have sex with at any given time...oh wait its actually 1....other one spawns weekly.

Honestly I feel stupid I HAVE TO BE MISSING SOMETHING,if so I will change my review if not

Its a good game...there are many who done it better.

Unholy Maiden(UM) is a good example of not being consumed by the crowd, and making your own research by seeing what the dev says you can do in the game. If you have the chance, play any free demo to really see what the game has to offer.
UM is perfect for casual and somewhat for hardcore RPG(non-hentai) fans of gameplay. But lacks the freedom for players who want to be immersed by choosing what sex actions they want and when(without being limited by the lewd stat)

UM is basically your typical "hentai" RPG Maker with some extra additions to make it "unique". You can spec your Ether to various stats like STR, INT,AG,Speech and Beauty. Your magic powers are either prayer or actual magic which are powered by your Order meter(basically karma) and your lewd level(either chaste or lewd). Prayer is more powerful if you stay pure and be orderly.
In dialogue you either have negotiation(speech stat), sell special flowers limited flowers which can also act like courting(Beauty stat) or force(AG+STR stat). You can achieve results with either of these when you want something done from another character.
The sandbox element lets you take peaceful quests or go to the dungeon and explore.
You can buy the special flowers but there will be times you can only buy 1 per day minimum, thus limiting your ability to use the Beauty stat. Maybe you can go that day to a dungeon but it feels like you can't overspec a stat that early. You're going to need to spec your combat stats first.
Combat is disappointing to say the least, even if you have a companion.
Even if you're a peaceful build character, you will need to spec to your combat builds no matter what and any paid mercs you hire, will leave your party after a set of amount time elapsed. This "promotes" not going too deep into the dungeon and overstaying to "simulate" the immersion of a dungeon raider. The enemy vision is also really specific to the point it isn't clear and it seems they have large vision radius. It is very confusing to say the least, a big turn off.

All in all, the above sound good in theory but this game is an overhyped mess if you're looking for a more deep immersive simulation of a female character in a lewd world. Even more so if you're here, like me, going for anal only, virgin high order priestess.
This game reminds me of a certain legendary good game from 2000 where you start in New York where the pacifist(virginity aspect) playstyle is half baked and only gets mentioned in the early half of the game.

However unlike THAT game, your level of freedom(both in combat and sex) is vastly limited in a 2D (Wolf)RPG where the fundamental design of the game is purely about fighting in a dungeon with multiple floors. Any sex related action is locked behind arbitrary lewd stats with whatever the developer aimed to show. For example, you don't start the game lewd regardless of what profession you have picked, possibly for story reasons later on in which i have no interest in continuing. So you go around grinding small "lewd" events to grind your Lewd meter in hopes of getting access to sex. Only for you to encounter that these events are fixed; meaning if that event is only aimed for vaginal sex at the third stage of that sex event, you will never know it is too late. For casual hentai players, this isn't a problem but for specific players who want freedom or immersion, this breaks everything.
This problem also occurs on battle "sex" where enemies will try to grab you if erected but looks like they will never succeed unless you're not virgin. I tried with imp and goblins and even that Roper tentacle enemies, and no sex happened while i was virgin. It always failed regardless if you were fully horny or close to.



This clearly shows the game is your typical "hentai" RPG Maker game where you go through linear story sections and also sex sections. Some people won't be interested in all sex sections and instead miss a majority of them just because their immersion was broken. Even if it does have multiple endings, i don't believe it warrants any extreme applause.
This type of gameplay would 100% be revolutionary back then, years ago. But now, this is what we get? Yes, it is a valid effort, i see it. But to me, it looks mediocre, like the developer could go above and beyond but hesitated. Maybe it is a prototype, who knows.
All i know is, it is my fault i let myself get overhyped by seeing other's comments, thinking this game might be better than GTA 6 itself.
I should have known, from the demo and the dev blog, that this game won't be extensive or immersive as i thought. it literally shows in the first 5 mins of the game and i didn't listen to my intuition. First 30 mins of the game, it truly shows its playing cards and i kept lying to myself that this game would turn better later on. But it will never be, because it is predictable just like the previous. So many red flags for me but i kept going until a certain point that i knew how it will go.

I am amazed how the lastest 2 games of a certain company of hentai games, actually have full anal control and the battlefuck there actually respects your character choices. So if you're a virgin, but anally experienced, monsters will only go for your anus.
Irony at its finest in these years.

Now, the game is perfectly able to be enjoyed. But for specific audience, this game is mediocre at best and tedious at worst, especially the second floor of the dungeon. Where you have to flip 4 switches in a very confusing map layout before 2 days pass or they reset. You can use Ed to flip the switches for you by paying gold but he can only do 1 per day, so you're left with 2 switches. Good luck trying to flip those switches where most of the enemies have poisonous or bleed effects. Good thing i used mtool for infinite health.

Let this be a lesson to everyone not to get overhyped for anything and instead do their own research, even if it is GTA 6.

The dev promised and delivered on time, which is rare these days.

For an hRPG game this is definitely up there with the one of the best. There are certain scenes that i hope get more love. Especially the bath hause.

One thing i have to critique is the sex scenes compared to that one specific BJ scene that u get in the store from the black mail guy. That one BJ has more scenes than the sex scenes u get.

But that can be fixed later. He mentioned that he will update the game after the release.

[1.04]

It's a good game, it's not as good as it could be, from graphical side, there is room for improvement, some parts do not account current clothing.

Fighting, especially at the begining is standard RPGM fighting with normal mosnters... what happens is mostly affected by wheter you can do the activity or not.

Quest system usually requires reading to know what the person wants, sometimes streight forward, other times you spend so much time looking for how you are suppposed to find absolutely generic thing you'd expect from first vendor.

Freeroaming here is one of better parts,npc randomly walking around city are not there just to be there, but they activily react if you walk trough them, you can talk to basically everyone, important dialogs have icon.

Overall I think it's one of those games for when you have time and don't expect jerk off material. By Atmosphere and a bit by mechanics it's about 25% (most likely less) of what you get from LonaRPG, just with grown up girl.

The other reviews already offer fantastic insight into the absolute masterpiece this game is, fantastic art, awesome scenes, choices that matter, tons of replayability, hell, even build variety. If there was a game to win GOTY over Expedition 33 is this one.

A highly anticipated title that delivers on almost every front.
★★★★☆

PROS:

1. Excellent Atmosphere: More than any other H-game in recent memory, Unholy Maiden simply has a delightful atmosphere. The game puts a shit ton of effort into lighting effects, tile graphics, audio and area design to create a game that is just fun to explore and experience. There's an appealing sense of danger and intrigue in this city, bolstered by the diverse environments on display.
2. It Really Is An RPG: Unlike the vast majority of RPGMaker ero-games, Unholy Maiden is actually an RPG. It has character building, actual decisionmaking, fun exploration and a strong emphasis on gaming the economy. All of these help make for a game that's unironically fun to play, bolstered by the huge amount of endings on display.
3. Work For Your H-Scenes: A scene-collector this is not. Not only are the majority of the scenes really well hidden, but they often pop up after interacting with some interesting element of the world. The shop-owner, slave district, and party-member interactions in particular strike me as really developed scenes with a ton of nuance.
4. Your Intelligence Is Respected: Unholy Maiden tells you just enough to help figure out what's going on and what to do. Outside of that, the game has an appealing sense of discovery. You're encouraged to delve deeper into the dungeon, read up on the mechanics, and generally explore it at your own pace. Finding ways to game the system or encur a huge amount of money are very rewarding. Stumbling into hidden sidequests or finding unconventional solutions to problems sometimes even lead to unique scenes.
5. Great Art: Atra has a very appealing character design with wonderful expressions. CGs are well-directed and feature Atra making a number of very erotic poses. The art is also filled with details, like sweat, injuries, balled-up fabric, and see-through clothing.
6. Actual Fucking Builds: Shockingly, Unholy Maiden has a number of legitimate builds to try out that offer unique ways to play. The game has two schools of magic that individually reward unique playstyles, and there's a healthy amount of items and equipment to try out. Lewd gameplay isn't just for H-scenes either, as it's a money and equipment farm that can swiftly make you rich beyond compare.
7. Secrets Unto Secrets: Unholy Maiden is stuffed with tons of unique interactions and events. There are lots of ways for things to play out, and clever decisionmaking can result in completely different scenes. For example, one sidequest has Atra work for a shady back-alley store. Normally, Atra holds onto an item for a client and gets roped into a shady con, but you can actually subvert this by handing the item into the guards. This completely derails the scene and actually adds a completely new scene to the mix, which is tantamount to the details inherent within this game.
8. Mixing RPG with Eroticism: The game's biggest crowning achievement is how it mixes roleplaying with H-scenes. You have a surprisingly large amount of possibilities on offer for how Atra behaves. You can play as a nun desperately clinging onto her chastity, a sorceress awakening to her erotic side, a heroic maiden who falls in love with her comrades, a sadist who loves to hurt others, or the best prostitute who ever lived. With around 20 hours of gameplay for one playthrough, you can get a lot of mileage out of your own, unique experience.

CONS:

1. RPGMaker Combat Still Sucks: The game tries really hard to hide it, but it can't escape one simple fact- RPGMaker combat is simple, slow, and tedious. Mashing attack becomes commonplace and its very easy to stumble into a build that doesn't play in any interesting ways. I highly recommend investing into magic if you want to have any fun. Dungeon exploration is a blast, but the actual fighting of monsters sucks as always.
2. Art Isn't Perfect: While the artstyle on display here is very appealing and detailed, sometimes it gets wonky. Atra's facial expressions can get really comically exaggerated and sometimes the anatomy sucks. Note her idle posture, which has a really awkward back-bend that just looks wrong once you notice it.

Overall, Unholy Maiden was hyped to hell and back, and I think it delivers. It's a very well-made title that should be an inspiration to further devs. While it can't escape the bad RPGMaker combat curse, it more than makes up for it with stellar level design, great mechanics, and tons of excellent content. This is an H-game you do not want to miss.

This is peak. Combat, intricate systems, tons of little secrets and rabbit holes to run down. Nothing to say except that it's an instant classic.

Pay your developers. You want games that actually have some gameplay that aren't slopfests? Show Unit 03 the money.
