I'm really struggling how to rate this. It's... there's nothing here. There's a premise, there's characters but that's it. The game feels hollow, rudderless.
So there's demons, and Deities and the like but there's next to no exposition about it. They exist and if you don't know that and what they do then you're an idiot apparently. The game doesn't bother to explain anything, so accept it and move on.
There's characters but again, with no back story you can't care about them at all. And because you don't care about them then it's next to impossible to get invested.
So the story is a character narrating a tale to someone else and it's all a flash back. Who's the lad? Dunno, why's he interested? Dunno. Why is she telling the tale? Dunno. So the characters interact but they interact over nothing. There's no narrative pushing the game forward beyond a demon wanting to make you a harem. So any interaction is
Niki: I'm going to make you a harem
Eva: Niki Noooooo!
Niki:too late, it's inevitable
MC: well I guess I've no choice.
That's it. That's the game. Like you see some nudity occasionally but that's it. So you're not really getting a plot, and you're not getting anything spicy to offset it you just get random chatter and then you'll get a random bit of lore "oh Grimms love married women". Great cool, not sure what I'm meant to do with that but ok. There's also an issue where you have a character who's like important. She's the one telling the tale and she just keeps dropping in bits of trivia that has the MC going "woah wait what?!?!" like he's only now just finding out about it. But she's been living with the MC for like a decade so the idea at no point in that time did she mention any of the things that the MC is only finding out for the first time gets so old so quickly. The characters could be interesting but the story is trash, it needs ripped out, establish the characters and their relationships better and then build a new story on top. Cause until then it'll just get perpetually more and more bizarre. Feels like a devs first game but I know he's got previous.
