The gameplay is engaging and streamlined, featuring a satisfying deck-building mechanic and a unique lust gauge that adds excitement to combat. While it may lack the strategic depth of genre leaders like "Slay the Spire," it compensates with high-quality pixel-art animations and a focus on erotic content. Players will find the roguelike elements familiar, though the game maintains a consistent difficulty level across runs, relying on skill and luck to progress through its challenges.
“While it may not offer the deepest strategic complexity compared to genre giants like Slay the Spire, it compensates with a streamlined, engaging gameplay loop and a well-integrated lust gauge system that keeps combat exciting.”
“If you're looking for a well-executed erotic roguelike with high-quality animations and enjoyable deck-building mechanics, this is an easy recommendation.”
“It is worth mentioning that although this game follows roguelike mechanics of randomness and multiple attempts, the protagonist does not get any permanent bonus, so whether it is your first game or your tenth game, you will always have the same difficulty, relying entirely on your skill and luck to choose cards or 'relics' to overcome the 50 floors of the dungeon.”
“It is worth mentioning that although this game follows roguelike mechanics of randomness and multiple attempts, the protagonist does not get any permanent bonus, so whether it is your first game or your tenth game, it will always have the same difficulty. You will depend entirely on your skill and luck to choose cards or 'relics' to overcome the 50 floors of the dungeon, a task that is not at all easy considering that the final boss has two phases with lots of life and debuffs.”
“For the rest, the gameplay is not much different from other similar games, starting with a basic deck that you can improve with cards you get by winning battles or finding them in encounters.”
“For those familiar with the roguelike/deck-building genre, this game, like many others, will be very familiar to 'Slay the Spire', since the interface is similar, sharing many mechanics. However, in the end, 'Succubus Forest' ends up being simpler, as it also focuses on sexual content with numerous animations.”

The game's stability is currently a significant issue, with players reporting frequent freezes, particularly during critical moments like boss fights. Many have spent hours attempting to bypass these bugs, especially on harder difficulty levels, leading to frustration. While a patch is anticipated to address these problems, the game is described as a "buggy mess" at launch.
“Without the patch, the game is a buggy mess.”
“That's it for the game; currently (at release day) there is a game-breaking bug which freezes the first boss fight (multiple people posting bug reports), but that should be fixed soon (trusting the developer here).”
“You can try endlessly refreshing and restarting the fight, trying different combos until eventually hoping it won't freeze, or just don't bother. The majority of my 3 hours was spent trying to endlessly refresh to get past the level and try to beat the game, which I did on easy, but hard mode freezes more it seems on level 25 without any way of passing.”
