0.1.8.2

characters are 0 dimensional
Harper is the shy man-hating feminist with her own pronouns("secretly").
Fasa is the tough girl who kicks ass.
Lura is your childhood friend
Kassia is the mysterious cocktease.

all have one thing in common. all secretly in love with you, but the moment you show any sexual advances in beginning you will get negative relationship points and they suddenly get mad at you because none of them can show any attraction publicly for some reason.

so yes the typical boring trope. everyone secretly in love with you they just dont show it. everyone's dream.... boring.

but conversations are boring and occasionally annoying. story is boring(and occasionally makes no sense or contradicts itself). there are a lot of bugs, including the save/load function. some typos.

H-scenes are not animated. but graphics and girls look good. some girls' avatar looks good some girl's "real life" version looks good.


even when you finally unlock the playable monster the game still suffers from lousy writing. so it doesn't improve much. plus playing the monster should probably include rape of the main protags but ofc everything is so consensual with some forced dramas. the game is just very wack. not worth playing at all. and never will be worth playing unless the creator changes writing completely to not be boring and lousy.

having said all that there are some sex scenes which are okay. but still not worth to play through it. because it plays like a kinetic novel despite the illusion of freedom. and ends abruptly at day14.

The first in game week is kind of a slog, and the "in game" (VR game in the game lol) systems could use some polish. After the first week the thing get more interesting quick.

Great art, fun story, looking forward to see where this goes!

Bit of an updated review since my initial one. I'm improving my rating from 1 to 2. Could have been 3 but on average this game is way too frustrating/confusing to warrant a 3. In addition, some basic porn games functionalities aren't available.

TLDR:

+Very good renders and models.
+Somehow unique concept and appreciable story.
+Good potential in LIs corruption.

-Tedious battles. Horrible pacing/progression especially during the first in game week (which accounts for 6 playable days out of 10 in current build)
-Can't save mid conversation/scene for non patrons.
-Game will kick you out after day 10 saying it's over no matter your progression.

Updated Review:

After getting newguy42 rating notification, I decided to keep playing for a bit.

Got to the part where you get kidnapped by the goblins. From there, you can choose to play as a monster (goblin) or keep playing as a human.
The game does get a lot more interesting from there. You'll still aimlessly spam repeatable quests but there's a lot more eye candy and scene diversity/options. Thus I'm glad I didn't completely drop it as I could see the game potential.

However, another major issue I noticed continuing playing is how the game is scripted. You currently have 10 playable days, pretty much nothing story wise happens during the first half and you are left with 3 days to try and play with the different routes the game offers. Past day 10, the game kicks you out to the menu and you can't explore other paths unless you load a previous save. That means you can't play the goblin/hero paths simultaneously and get all the content which is frustrating because there is no indication regarding what content is available. So you'll just be groping for the right path/answer until you stumble upon a scene.

Finally, please discard the XP/leveling up part of my initial review as it seems to be unconsequential for the game. It's not even possible to reach level 2. Gist of the review stands however.

Initial Review:



Been wanting to try this for a while because of the really appealing preview images.

I played for one hour and uninstalled the game. I spent this whole hour repeating one or the other repeatble quest available through the main menu. Sometimes, the quest will auto success, sometimes you'll fight a goblin horde. First off, the combats are painfully long. Now I imagine they get shorter once you level up but uh... Takes 500 xp to get to level 2 and you get between 3 to 7 xp or so per quest. A battle lasts around 1 minute. Wtf?

I was around 1/3 of leveling up after 1 hour of doing the exact same thing: Do one of the 2 available quests, interact with one of the LIs when the prompt is available through the "message" tab, get disconnected from the VR at 10PM, go to school during the morning, come back home to the VR. Rinse and repeat.

I didn't see any progress during my short playthrough. I'm usually very patient and generous with my ratings, especially for new projects but the pacing of this game is so bad it made me drop it. Maybe more tangible and meaningful content starts kicking in right after I quit I don't know, but doing the same thing over and over with no result isn't compelling.

Second issue I found is not being able to save whenever you'd like. It's only available for patrons but I don't understand why you'd want to deprive free players from the most basic feature a seggs game could have. It's only frustrating not being able to save in the middle of a scene, especially when galleries aren't a given.

On a positive note though, renders and characters are really hot from the little I saw.

Good luck with the game.

I hope for more content and the corruption to start earlier but all in all a great game. You can only save during the "login screen" moments but I would like to be able to save before every choice since rollback can't be a thing.

But still a nice game so far

The gameplay aspects are surprisingly polished for only being out since May based on the thread publish date. Focused mainly around the VR world the Player and girls are testing, with what appears to be a planned skill system as well as multiple sidequests and jobs available for both the Player's guild as well as the band of monsters he will be leading. Have to say it's a refreshing change of pace from most VN games.

The girls are also a major part of any game like this and I have to say they don't disappoint. Hitting all the major niches both in the games "Real World" and the Virtual world they are spending the majority of their time in. Add this to the fact there is more than enough room narratively and in the games strutcture for future additions, there won't be a lack of choices.

Overall a really solid framework that I hope gets seen through unlike so many other games on this site. Also if the creator ever needs any help I would be happy to volunteer my services.

Review v0.1.3.0
The combat is ridiculously slow! Until this is fixed the game is basically unplayable.
There are a variety of women you meet off the bat and play a game. You do quests and sometimes do battle. You are not a monster which is what I expected based on the description.

There are two quests at the start but the combat is so slow taking multiple minutes to complete. There are no interesting animations or any skills. There is so much missing or so little damage that I can't believe anyone thought this was ok.

There does seem to be a story in here but I just can't sit through minutes of nothing to play this game. You have to have a lot of patience for this game.

Is 'concept boner' a thing?

Love the art. Girls are a tad on the Needs A Sammich side, but I have no complaints. Humbly beg for cowgirls.

Writing is fine. Characterization is a bit thin at the moment, but it's an early release and not below the curve for such so I have no substantial complaints.

Like the porn thus far. Really enjoy the fact that [at least] one of the girls has her own functioning libido and enjoyment. Holy shit I love the idea of the monster sex corruption stuff (if handled to my own overly-specific tastes).

My main gripes are: lack of a useful skip function for dialog / battle / seen events / daily humdrum cycle. The level curve also seems a bit glacial but I get the need to parse things out with early releases.

TLDR: Pleeeeease keep it up. <3

Fun quest/combat mechanics, amazing quality renders, cool story. I hope to see more lewd content in the early stages in the future updates. I would also like to see more player feedback like girl affection stats and such.
