Ren'Py - What a Legend! [v0.7.05] [MagicNuts]

Review for 0.5

The game is just excellent all across the board.

Starting with the graphics, everything about them is awesome. The characters, backgrounds, sprites, animations etc are top notch. Easily the best 2dcg in this site. The attention to detail also shows. There are little details all over the place that make the world feel a little more alive, and shows what's missing from most of the other titles. For example, the flags are waving, the light reflects on the sea, the characters are constantly changing facial expressions and move during dialogues etc. A lot of small things that add up. Really excellent work.

The story is good and very well written, and it's peppered with humour throughout. It's a little more lighthearted than I typically like, but I enjoyed it immensely anyway. The characters are very well written as well, they are distinct and a joy to interact with.

Gameplay is sanboxy, but it's not bad. There is not a chance to get stuck, and if you do there is an excellent in game walkthrough.

Tdlr: Excellent game all around, you should be playing it already instead of reading reviews.

After completing the latest update, I have this feeling that I always get after finishing a great book. I feel lost, empty, didn't know what else to do. And that is how I know this is a great game.

What I love about this game is that it didn't take itself seriously. It's light hearted but makes you feel emotions even though this is a porn game.

And to think that there are only 2 devs working in this game with this kind of quality. It makes my mind blown. The amount of hard work, creativity and dedication put into this is unimaginable.

I want to congratulate and thank Pistachio and Chestnut for this awesome game. You did a great job guys, cheers! I hope you can continue this because you just became a legend with this game!

Amazing game, and is very similar and COULD BE BETTER than Summertime Saga. The amount of love, work and detail the dev team put into this is evident throughout the game.

- It has a light-hearted tone compared to Summertime Saga and Being a Dik, and I would definitely rank it together with those two. I would go as far to say that this game has more potential than both previously mentioned games (assuming the devs stay their course).

- There is absolutely no grind to the game, which I believe is a positive note that separates it from other works.

- The story and humour is fantastic. Again it has a light-hearted tone which is another one of its strengths. This update specifically (v0.5), shows why the game's story sets it apart and raises it compared to most other games. The writer/artist put in a lot of effort, and I personally feel that it has paid off big time.

- As of version 0.5, the game is still in its relatively early stages, but it already has a substantial amount of content, specially with each focused character thus far.

Goodluck to the devs, and thank you for this gem.

Very Nice Game with good plot, but upates are kinda long but that is expectable 'cuz they were making this game with no flaw. Worth to wait for this game.

Not much choices matter in game, but this does make you bored. the story and sex scene will take care of that


Art 10/10
Plot 9/10

Ignore the entitled assholes review-bombing, this is one of the top 3 best games on this site and easily the best when it comes to those with hand-drawn CG.

When taken together, the worldbuilding, story, and characters are plenty original enough to be enjoyable. Updates are only "short" when you ignore how dense they are, there's a bit of clicking around to travel but very little waste in general.

It's a porn game, not Pat Rothfuss. Some of the people here really need to lighten up.

To me this game is very overrated. Yes, the art style is indisputably excellent, but with no choices and no real puzzles, you are essentially only playing for that art. Even that, in itself, is no fault for a point and click. However, the solutions to all the problems are so contrived that you must either resort to random trial and error, or using the very handholding guide. This destroys what little gameplay might be left.

With all that being said, I can still only give it 5 stars since the effort from art alone outcompetes almost everything else on this site.

v0.4.01

A point and click adventure game set in a fantasy world and sometimes there's sex. The art is pretty good but I found the gameplay, which is basically neverending fetch quests where you retrieve things by clicking around a map to different scenes and occasionally waiting for time to pass, to be a bit boring. The writing got a couple laughs out of me but a lot of the scenes feel really drawn out. Overall I didn't really dig it.

Writing 10/10
Sex Scene 9/10
World Design 10/10
Art 10/10
Characters Design 10/10

One of the best porn game I've ever played, potential world, funny writing, awesome sex scene, hopefully this game have some fantasy novel character parody like game of thrones,...

Cant wait for more

Every so often, a game comes along that manages to set a new bar for the genre. This is one of those games. The writing is fantastic, the humour is funny, the art style is gorgeous, it plays smoothly, and more... but what truly sets this game apart is the overall quality. There are a few well written games with mediocre animations, or games with spectacular visuals but terribly designed characters and an incoherent storyline, but this game simply does everything incredibly well. I have nothing against RenPy as it is a wonderful and accessible platform for people to create their projects, but this game doesn't even feel like a RenPy game. It is done so masterfully and smoothly that after playing for a few minutes I actually went back and checked the file to see if it's a Unity game or not.

It's still a long way away from being finished, and I would reccomend playing some other quality VNs before giving this a go so that there is A) more content in this game, and B)because it may ruin other VNs for you (think of re-playing GTA III after playing GTAV).

It would be a really good game if i was 13 years old. I played similar games as a child and found them really hot. Now, the simple art is just childish, sex is vanilla softcore boring and story is just a fairy-tale fetch quest grind. Adult games should be all about erotic content and sex here is just only one single drawing per character and very very boring.
First things first, it's an old type point'n'click adventure game with simple hand-drawn 2D art, very light hearted cliche story and dumb MC and his magic-dick as a story driver. The player takes control of a protagonist with a big magic dick who does fetch quests to unlock sex scenes (and by sex scenes i mean simple drawing). Gameplay is about lots of clicking, backtracking, collecting items to complete side-quests made more annoying by adding a time of day requirement. There are some choices that don't affect the story and the world map looks impressive but it turns out 99% of game takes place in just one location. There are about 5 women who all look the same and i couldn't tell much difference between them apart from hair colour. Each of them has just one very vanilla and softcore sex scene (sex drawing) to unlock as a reward for all your grind. The devs plan to implement much more but so far there's only one per character. It all feels like theres only 15 % of game designed. The game lacks content at time of writing, none of the characters are really attention grabbing, both in terms of visual design and characterization. In this kind of games (simple art/ simple story) a good voiceover would be of crucial importance and high-quality voice acting would greatly improve gameplay experience. Sadly there is none.
So, if you're very much into sweet faires, kind elves and little pixies and also into cliche "you're-the-chosen-one" and "your-dick-is-magic" story driver with "go do this and get sex" quest design where you have unlimited gold but nobody (even beggars or homeless persons) accepts gold and where your choices don't matter at all then this one's for you.
Right now, the game doesn't feel nothing like a masterpiece that deserves the top rank on this site.

(Review for version 4.0.1)

Art - 5/5
Characters - 5/5
Writing - 4.5/5
Gameplay - 4/5

The game, even in its unfinished state, already shows the high quality the game has.

The art, at first, might seem like it doesn't fit these types of games, but they've managed to make the art style absolutely work. Characters, environments, landscapes all look stunning. The animations, though, I find a bit clunky.

The meat of the game, the characters, so far are absolutely great. From my experience, it's pretty rare to see a male protag who is actually chivalrous, nice and genuinely good even though his motivation is just to bed a bunch of women. I also like how the female leads and their stories are written (though so far, only 1-2 characters has a complete "arc" of sorts): there's actual character development going on as you continue the storylines, and from the content not yet implemented, it seems that their stories don't end when you romance them, which is great. Finally, the side characters also get some good writing of their own, even if they're far from the limelight.

Meanwhile, the writing for the most part is witty, smart, and isn't afraid to poke fun of itself. Sure, some of the jokes don't land that well, but it manages to give the world and the game a distinct, fun, personality.

Finally, gameplay. It's a visual novel/adventure game. There's not much to do outside of clicking, reading, and puzzling. It isn't necessarily a bad thing, as the game seems to be paced well-enough that the lack of diversity in gameplay doesn't affect things much. How this will affect things when the game gets longer, we do not know.

Overall, 9.5/10. Myrtle best girl.

Story: 5/5
The story if written witty, intriguing and funny. While it hasn't reached 'epic' proportions , but i guess the main story is only at the beginning.

The pacing for the individual character is also good.. Voyeur scenes make the early character stages interesting erotic wise.

Art: 5/5 (*)
The art looks really good and unique. I really like the style.

(*) An exception is the main protagonist's flaccid dick, which looks a bit strange. It looks like he's circumcised? Im sorry we live in the 21st century, genital mutilation is unnecesarry and a turn off.

Music: 5/5
The music fits the fantasy setting and sounds nice.

Conclusion:
What a Legend is a really good game. Especially if you are into interessting characters, fantasy settings and harems

This game is a masterpiece! Honestly, it has everything you need for the light visual novel in a fantasy setting...

Funny and yet interesting story? - Check!
Hot girls with different personalities? - Check!
Jokes that are funny and not falling to cliche? - Check!
No annoying grind? - Check!

Also, devs look pretty professional - the progress tracker is a thing that all game devs should consider having!

Godspeed folks! I'm sure you have all that you need to create one of the best adult games ever!

Great game all the way. It's a real GAME, with funny dialog, fantastic visuals and great connection with story.
The storyline is easy to follow and engaing. Side characters feels "real" and connected with the overall vibe of the world.
Lots of storyline for rewards, which feels good and not overdone, but rewarding.

What really sells this game is the art. While the plot is engaging, the writing is somewhat dry and minimalistic. The charcters are fun, even while the dialogue is somewhat disappointing. But the boobies!

The art really shows the amount of work put into each scenes be it the characters , sprites , resources or backgrounds.

The plot is really detailed and well planed with various mysteries to be discovered and really craters to the adventure loving audiences.

lastly the animations are among the best of all the 2D games out there with smooth and detailed animations not only for H-scenes but also for sprites.

Overall this games has a literally everything you want out of a H-game and the Devs really knows what they are doing.

gorgeous 2D assets, most gorgeous I've ever bumped into. 5 stars for the assets
interfaces very nice and easy to navigate
story acceptable 4 stars on that
not much to do atm, 3 stars on gameplay but a very promising future
myrtle and maple ftw!

Its not bad but theres too much talking. The dialogue isnt as witty as the dev thinks tbh. Cut down on the dialogue or just hold skip button all the time and you actually get a decent game here. Art isnt bad, sex scenes are decent to great, but theres just so much clicking around. Story isnt the worst but its nothing to write home about. All in all its a 3/5 game. id say look at the screenshots and if you like the art play it but be ready for a lot of useless adventure clicking.

This game does a lot of things right. Dialogue is fun, well-written and enjoyable to read. The art is top-notch. Great lines, unique aspects of each character that you can engage with so they don't all feel the same. That includes their art, personalities and quests. The game itself is not tedious, you are not stone-walled into trying to get past quests, missions or tasks. They are all reasonable, but still rewarding. Great game, help them out, play it, enjoy it, review it.

This review is based on v.0.4.01

One sentence review - One of the very rare funny VNs that can get a little clicky but keeps you wanting to play.

Visuals - 5/5 Stunning graphics with perfect colors. You won't find these visuals anywhere else.
Story - 4/5 Funny story. It's a bit slow moving but not in a bad way.
Characters - 4/5 The only reason this is a 4 is because you can't interact with a lot of them yet.
Music - 5/5 The music really fits the mood of the story!
Fappability - 3/5 There isn't much to fap to yet.

The pros of this game outweighs what needs work so it still gets a 5/5.
