I think there's one line from this one that really captures how I feel about it: "I can now safely tell you that people on the internet are weirder than I"

I really could not be further from the target audience for this one, but I set these big dumb goals for myself to do big dumb reviews for every submission and this one counts, so I'm gonna do my best. 

Right, so let's start with presentation, and the good side of presentation at that. The art, especially the full CGs in this, are really good. Like legitimately impressive - the artists really crushed it here. The quality of the CGs kind of clashes with the quality of... like every other aspect of the presentation in this one, because this one's got some jank in it. 

I'm sure you're more or less aware of all these, so I don't want to beat any dead horses, but this one has some issues: lots of black screens where there's no background; backgrounds that don't make sense for the given scene (e.g., if you go to the gym from the bedroom, the bedroom BG stays on), music only appearing intermittently, lots of proofreading errors (e.g., spelling, punctuation, grammar), gameplay bugs (e.g., you can repeat the "work" action over and over again and your day limit goes negative instead of giving you a bad end), unclear gameplay rules (e.g., you play the gym bros in rock, paper, scissors, and it at least seemed like you were supposed to give them R$15 if you lost, but losing with any amount of money gets you pissed on; also, it's if you lose any round, not a best-of, which isn't intuitive. Also the blood moon is stated to be two weeks away, but you only get 5 days to do the thing for some reason); the demon gives you infinite chances to restart (this one might be intentional but I'm not sure), and so on. 

Getting into the writing, there were definitely still some gems for me, like the comedy in the opening ritual where Diego is making comments like only meeting the rest of the coven over Discord. I also appreciated the (I think this was intended?) rugpull of expecting Paulo to be the "perfect boyfriend" the demon was talking about before it's revealed that the ritual was actually to summon some giant penis monster. 

A lot of transitions felt really abrupt though, and I'm not sure if this was supposed to be part of the joke or not. Like, if you go the Tim route, you proceed through this whiplash of a conversation ("Diego! I haven't seen you in forever! Good to see you, hope you've been good, because I haven't! I just got divorced because my wife wanted ten kids! Anyway, you need to get sweaty underwear to get a perfect boyfriend? How about you become the club's public use whore and eat my smegma instead?!") and then are prompted with two choices. One leads you to another choice of three sex scenes, and the other just... wins the minigame for you, I guess? Like there's no transition or "UNDERWEAR GET!" message or anything, it's just, click the button and now you're at the picnic. Same thing for winning the rock, paper, scissors game, and same thing for the end of the story where, presumably the demon is still going to be mad at you for Paulo kicking his penis monster back into hell, but it just kinda ends. 

I feel like this was one people who were either more in on the joke or into the fetishes presented would get a lot more mileage out of, and the comment below mine is a testament to that. Still glad I gave this one a shot, and it was worth the read, but yeah, not my cup of tea unfortunately ^^"
