  • story
    19 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story is engaging and features a charming heroine navigating a dangerous prison district, with a straightforward main plot that evolves through branching events and character development. While not a masterpiece, the narrative intertwines with mini-games and erotic elements, creating a cohesive experience that enhances the gameplay. However, some players have noted frustrating gameplay mechanics that detract from the overall enjoyment of the story.

    • “The art is definitely a highlight, and the story, while not a masterpiece, is engaging enough to pass the time.”
    • “Her quest leads her into the notorious human prison district, a place rife with danger, depravity, and moral compromise.”
    • “Additionally, sometimes after buying the stone, the game will not register that you have done so and will not allow you to continue with the story.”
    • “6 hours to rush the H scene; the main story barely touches on anything.”
    • “While the main plot is straightforward—secure the resin and return home—the branching events and corruption evolution create depth.”
  • gameplay
    11 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay features a unique rock-paper-scissors combat system that some players find engaging, particularly with its upgrade mechanics. However, many reviews highlight significant flaws, such as tedious missions and frustrating maze-like environments, which detract from the overall experience. While the game balances adult content with gameplay, the core mechanics may not appeal to everyone, leading to mixed feelings among players.

    • “Another highlight of the game is its combat system, which is based on a rock-paper-scissors mechanic.”
    • “The gameplay strikes a good balance between engaging mechanics and adult content, making it a modest and affordable choice among female-protagonist corruption RPGs.”
    • “The enhanced combat system features range mechanics and vulnerability targeting, adding depth to the gameplay experience.”
    • “The game has some strong points, but the gameplay falls short.”
    • “However, the core issue is the gameplay itself.”
    • “The gameplay will make you hate sewers and the last mission where you have to find the two medallions is the most brain-dead mission I've ever seen. You are forced to go into two separate mazes where you can't see, and it's multi-floored to find a chest. Of course, there are fake chests too. The combat is rock-paper-scissors, with the meta game being you serve apples to people to farm mana, which adds to the hatred of the sewers.”

    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's stability is notably problematic, with users reporting frequent glitches that can freeze gameplay, even on high-performance systems. Translation errors persist despite patches, and specific items in the game exhibit additional glitches, contributing to an overall frustrating experience.

    • “From the dialogue being translated badly to the glitches that froze my game (I have a powerful computer, and I also played it on the Ally; the issue happened on both), the game is extremely hard at points.”
    • “Other than some translation errors which persist throughout the game even with the patch, the Steam version just has more glitches that I feel should be addressed.”
    • “Additionally, the magic orb items which are required to break the haunted mansion's barrier have two glitches associated with them.”
