Sinful Eden

Sinful Eden

As an achievement hunter I don’t feel much interest in a game without achievement but this game was an exception and I finished it. I don’t know why this game has many negative ratings but my rating is obviously positive. Although the story progresses through a semi-fantasy method about how to impress girls by a guy, yet the basic is perfectly right that get hassle free money and give them gifts… yes, money is the only thing that impres the girls… no matter how much ridiculous it sounds but that’s the ultimate fact deep in a woman’s mind… whatever the reason is “money is sweeter than honey” for them. :XD

Before I start I’d like to state that I recieved a review copy of this game for free, with that out of the way. I’ve Just completed the game which took me roughly 5 hours and really enjoyed it. Here’s what I thought in more detail:

Pros:

  • Nice artwork

  • Interesting premise

  • Enjoyed the puzzle solving aspects

  • Cute story & characters

  • Trading cards are always nice

Cons:

  • Really the only negative I found was that the game lacks an ‘options & settings’ menu, this didn’t present any real problems for me personally, but I could see how some people may have an issue with this.

Sunrider Academy

Sunrider Academy

**TL:DR

Play the main Sunrider series first then buy this game. Claim your waifu and show her your Vanguard Cannon.**

The Steam release is CENSORED but you can easily install the official restoration patch from the Sunrider website to view the girls in all their naked glory the way God intended. Now with the most important part out of the way, on to the other stuff.

Made by the same developer that made the excellent Sunrider: Mask of Arcadius, Sunrider Academy takes those memorable characters and transplants them into a standard Japanese style school setting as a dating sim/time management/visual novel game. You play as Kayto Shields, Vice-President of the student council, and are tasked with making sure the three “trouble school clubs” are whipped into shape. At the same time, you must also manage your duties as a school student and keep up with homework, exams, and finding a girlfriend before the end of the year otherwise it’s BAD END!

First of all: I haven’t played Sunrider: Mask of Arcadius. I think the game functions well as a standalone management dating sim, however I believe there are some things you’ll only appreciate if you’ve played the main game.

Pros

  • You can download a restore patch from the developer’s site. This is essential.

  • Art is pretty cute. The backgrounds are beautiful as well.

  • Protagonist’s sister is a hoot and a half.

  • Five difficulty settings, you can choose just how much you want to be challenged.

Celestial Crossing

Celestial Crossing

OELVN’s are a mixed bag. While we may get some gems like Doki Doki Literature Club, we also get garbage like… this. I wouldn’t say this is the worst VN I’ve played, oh no. First off, the art is pretty good. Though the backgrounds and sound are creative commons that ive seen in too many games, the character and CG art itself is pretty good.

The storyline is a mess. Spoilers for the rest of this paragraph. The game doesn’t seem to know how to handle Nerith coming from the game to real life, and you never get an actual answer to it. It feels to me like the devs were just going “lets make a game where a character comes to life!” and did it. No one knows HOW Nerith came to the real world, not even the game creators. And the whole, connected to the game world through dreams is a ridiculous explanation. Just how exactly is the brain connected to a video game world? It’s not even like .hack// or Sword Art Online where your brain is connected to a device that can send you into a coma or kill you.

First impressions: for a game that costs 6 dollars and has some voice acting. Yea, it is pretty decent.

Voice acting is ok, not super high quality.

Art is good, but it won’t make the game.

Background music and art is generic. It is like slide-show presentation quality.

Text, well, decent and easy to read. Just minor pet peeves with the immersion breakers.

For VN standards this is ok in my books, but this could have been worse.

Pacing with the text and voice acting is great. I would have dropped this game instant if it would only have been “only text with pretty art”. I think every girl has good voice actress, but you can clearly hear that some of their dialogue are recorded in basement or in their rooms.

Forest Fortress

Forest Fortress

ForestFortress is a really good adventure romance with a really nice storytheme.

The story goes about a human boy, setting on on search for a medecine to cure his village from an unknown illness, until he met a squirrelgirl which saved his life from a Vine plant. After this we meet a dryad girl which are considered after the squirrels warning as evil and have to be avoided.

These warings thoughs couldnt be cnfirmed by him and the dryad seemed t be actually really caring.

Later on after encountering again the squirrel he got informed that the forest the dryad are obscured by a dark god s powwer thank tothe dryadd Lady and therefore it is known that the humans in the village felll ill thanks to this dark presence. Soon he found himself encountering another squirrel which ended up bringing him alongin her village and to be the princess of the village and therewe meet again Rika the first squirrel we met.From there on we are ordered to do all kind of things as to purify, to do, to entertain and to go on mission, do participate in a sacred ance etc…. From there on we also build relationships and with each event event if chosing the right option we are likely rewarded with a scene of some adult content.

This was a surprisingly entertaining game. At the time of this writing, I’ve finished all three routes in a little more than seven hours (using some fast forwarding when going through the story the second and third times) and thought it was great.

The graphics are better than Treasure of a Blizzard—both the backgrounds and the character sprites. Except for Olly, the characters in this story are somewhat combative (similar to Treasure of a Blizzard). The plot is straightforward. During the course of the game, you meet three girls. Choose one and stay loyal to her and things should work out. The story lines of each of the girls was satisfying enough that if theirs was the only route, I would be OK with the game. While playing, I selected my potential decisions first and then consulted the guide by derailed_omega_male to confirm what my choices did to avoid misinterpreting the somewhat awkward wording. Most of you should know what I am talking about.

Sakura Succubus 3

Sakura Succubus 3

With all the talk about a Succubi princess (queen actually) it had to happen. This episode introduces the Himedere. And boy does she act like she owns the place.

This is the only chapter that is a true visual novel as there are two possible endings, one of which ends the series, the other continues on to the next chapter. But both endings are realistic.

Our protagonist is not that smart when he meets the newcomer. The whole thing was screaming “She is a succubus” and it took him a bit to figure out. This is my only real complaint.

Real player with 40.3 hrs in game

Like 1 and 2, Sakura Succubus 3 is really short. However, while I found 1 and 2 pretty boring I found 3 a little more interesting. It introduces a new character that kidnaps you and keeps you “captive”. While a cut above 1 and 2, it still shares the problems lacking content and features other VN have.

Probably the best in the series so far, but still not worth the full price.

Summer Fling

Summer Fling

Let’s face it, summer is over. It’s September, and we’re slowly entering the first week of October, where Autumn will deliver us strong winds and twice the cloths, but that doesn’t mean we can’t enjoy a Summer Fling, especially since the end of Summer felt just like yesterday. Released in the Summer of 2016, Summer Fling was Dharker Studio’s summertime hit, giving the fans a serious reason to keep playing games during vacations.

In Summer Fling, players will take the role of Kasumi, a high school senior student on his last day of classes before hitting the big and deserved resting vacations. Joining a cram school is still a possibility, but he also wants to stop at his parents' lake house for a weekend rest. While thinking of all the possibilities, he stumbles across two of his friends; Yuuki and Saeki. Yuuki is clearly more shy, reserved and easier to blush, then plenty other girls, it’s been part of her charm for a long time. Her blue eyes mixed with her light-brown hair makes her look like a rare sight among all craziness of school life. Saeki is the opposite, she’s extroverted, upfront, and always ready with a joke on the tip of her tongue, making it hard to know when to take her words seriously. Her blue eyes and almost red, brownish hair give her a wild outlook.

Buy it, Patch it, Enjoy.

Short, sweet dating sim.

If your getting this for the story, just don’t. Without the uncensored patch, and wanting to see some H-scenes I don’t recommend getting this. It is quite short for a Dharker Studios game, with a lack of characters, but what was there was good.

I enjoy Dharker studio games so I knew what I was getting into, and this one was… okay.

I don’t think this was there best, I expected more from Dharker Studios, but while waiting for there bigger releases later this was fine. I recommend getting it on sale though because it’s pretty short.

TOGETHER VR

TOGETHER VR

My review…the good and the not so good.

first off….it looks AMAZING…WONDERFUL!! the creators sure are on to something and really show you the possibilities of what VR can do and how much better it might get in the future with these type of VR demonstations. I MUCH prefer this type of thing rather than shooting games…because I think someday…people like these creators will perfect things like this even more and make it even more immersive.

the game boots up and you find yourself in a beautiful,comfy, brightly lit apartment of a highrise, and a fun pretty and bubbly girl is sitting there on the couch watching TV. so, this whole thing is basically a short VR technology showoff….this isnt a full experience along the lines of Kanojo. but even at only 12 dollars theres lots here to admire. so if you have a VR headset,why not pick it up. you play darts with her and then go up against her in a VR firefight and then sit at a dinner table with her feeding each other and playing rock paper scissors and then hunt for an envelope. its fun and I LOVE how the apartment changes from daylight to night. beautiful atmosphere.

Real player with 7.2 hrs in game

I recommend this game for the Dart game, the VR game (yes, a VR game inside of a VR game), and the eye candy. Rock, Paper, Scissors is cute, and a pleasant experience after the work it took to get there. I do not recommend it for anyone that is looking for anything overtly sexual, nor would I recommend it to anyone that is not interested in unrealistically proportioned VR girls. ;)

For the VR game, be prepared to face all 4 cardinal directions, and also prepared to move, duck, and shoot at the same time. I loved that game, if you are patient and keep your head on a “swivel” you can work your way through it easily enough. Darts were pleasant, and almost close to the right actions with a real dartboard, although the virtual distance did not appear to be “regulation,” you are too close! (or was I cheating? “Mei” complained that I was too close, but that might have also been because I was standing really close to her when she was throwing too.) :)

Grey Instinct

Grey Instinct

I am emotionally invested in this game. It’s been 20 days. I have not seen my family, friends, or civilisation in general since the dawn of this simulation. My love for Kana grows while my sense of reality dims. I am CumMaster69 and I got every single achievement in this game. Life has no purpose. I have no purpose. Until Grey Instinct 2 comes out, I shall halt my existence till my love returns. This game should be renamed Sheenz Instinct because my love for Kana is unlevelled.

I do not know who I am anymore. So I leave you with this warning. If you play, you may not live to see another day.

Real player with 14.4 hrs in game

This game, even from just playing the first chapter, I can tell is going to be a 10/10!

Really fun, interesting, the mechanics are smooth, there are mini games within it (like in the arcade after you unlock the dating app) the graphics are great (keep in mind this is a style I like, and not just be thinking this is the best graphics engine out there. I like the 2.5-D vibe it has), it is really fun! I was wrapped into it almost immediately. The thing I liked the most was the STYLE. And this game definitely has it. I’ve also never run across the idea of using a dating app to “whoo” your potential dates with puzzles and stuff they like so that is definitely a cool mechanic that I was not ready for, but was impressed by.

LoveKami -Divinity Stage-

LoveKami -Divinity Stage-

So I just finished LoveKami - Divinity Stage today and I have to admit it’s absolutely terrible. I didn’t pay anything, thanks to HumbleBundle, and I am glad I didn’t.

Normal Price Point: 12.99€

It’s not even good on moe-ge standards, the common route lasts like 4 hours and the routes are around 1 more each (cleared em in 40 minutes) , there are absolutely no choices besides one which refers between the 3 main heroines.

Also there is no japanese version included so it at least would have some value for learners because it would use the difficult Kanji for the japanese and buddhist gods and that kind of terminology in the original.

A cute little romance VN centered around Idol scene in Akihabara featuring couple of goddesses trying to pass an audition to join the most famous idol group L-SEVEN. Your role is to help them to pass an audition while also falling in love with them.

This novel is mostly kinetic and you are presented with only 1 choice in the whole game which determines which of the 3 endings you will see. Of course, the point is to see all of them which will take about 10 hours if you are listening to all the voice acted dialogues.
