I just finished the game, and every part of it was fucking amazing, came for the nut, stayed for THE FUCKING GOOD HISTORY.
This game is fucking awesome, before playing this I was not so into visual novels, but this game turned out to be such a fun experience that I just played more and more.
Great history, great scenes, AMAZING funny moments (Stabby Mike is the best!) and for free!
I will remember this game forever in my life, the ending was amazing and I almost cried with the music. Loved all the characters and the plot.
I imagined it would be a generic visual novel, but I received a very amazing and funny game. The brilliance of this game for not taking itself too seriously makes you never get tired of playing it! I don't even care about the NSFW scenes anymore, Stabby Mike is the MVP of this game.
this game is now become one of my fav games man i love the and the best is comic timing i played many games but this game have the best comic timing and the real life references and my fav character staby mike thanks for making this free and now all ready to paly your next eternum
Can someone tell me how to access the save files of the game in pc and android? im trying to open it since in the dc server someone sent a save file for all the endings but i dont know how to place it anywhere.
Ok so first of all I want to state that I know that there has been a lot of work put behind this game. Nevertheless I would like to say that there are a lot of off-putting situations. This feels like a distorted version of the world as seen by someone who does not participate in a lot of social interactions. Some of the situations depicted here are also on the borderline of being creepy, mostly because there's a tone of "grooming" in some of decisions. Anyway, that's just my two cents on the matter.
I agree, it's probably my only criticism of this game. Some of the MC's actions definitely fall into morally ambiguous at best and outright refusing to take no for an answer at worst. I have to fast-click through those scenes since the game is otherwise amazing.
Could you please change the download link for the Chinese version of "Once in a Lifetime" to MEGA or Google Drive?
The current download link for the Chinese version of "Once in a Lifetime" only allows for a daily limit of 5GB of free downloads. If only the free quota provided by this link is used, the download will only reach 4.8GB. However, the overall size of the game is displayed as 5.35GB on the website. This means that it's impossible to download the entire game!
Furthermore, after downloading and extracting the 4.8GB content, only the in-game options are in Chinese, while the character dialogues remain in English...
I've never heard of this game nor it's creators but after downloading it 14 hours ago, I played it to its completion NONSTOP. It was such a great experience. Like yea I was just looking for a good wank, but let me tell you,, LET ME TELL YOUUUU!!!! I couldn't have been more taken back by the beautiful, amazing, funny, corny (in a good way), horny, action-packed, thrilling, spooky, and epic story I was spoon fed through a silver spoon. The girls are beautiful yea, the animations are amazing, the sex exciting, but listen to me. The STORY was so enchanting that at times I forgot I was playing a harem style game. As much of a horndog I am, I couldn't stop but feel so wholesome over a game that has a tag labeled "masturbation, oral, vaginal and anal sex". Phenomenal work Caribdis and I am extremely excited for any more content you have to add to this beautiful story! I would give some suggestions on what more could be added in future content, but I know I should probably voice that through the patreon. Regardless, to anyone who's reading this who hasn't played or someone who has played but hasn't romanced everyone/ didn't get all the girls for the ending, I would extremely suggest taking the time to collect all these infinity stones of fictional women/ and one wholesome cellmate.
TLDR: Amazing game amazing game amazing game. Came into the game with an erection, left the game with wholesome tears and a full heart.
BTW: I didn't have an account on itch.io but after playing the game I just had to create an account and leave a review.
Now that you have completed this game, you should definitely download and play the next game "Eternum" by this dev!!! And let me tell you, it is even more amazing than this, with a lore and all!! YOU SHOULD JOIN DISCORD and look at the memes for the games the users create and share 😂😂
Anyway, good to see you have enjoyed this amazing game as well.
There are many different ways you could lose a path, but they normally come down to just one specific decision you made. Even if you want a blind gameplay without using the walkthrough, it should be pretty easy to figure out by just rewinding until you find the moment you lost it. And obviously, save-scumming helps too.
bro Caribdis, this game is so damn funny, like i several times felt lightheaded with how much i was laughing, and to avoid saying spoilers, the story was just awesome start to finish, hands down the best game i ever played on this site, no contest.
also, i tried joining the discord but when i click join, it keeps saying "unable to accept invite" do you know of anyway to fix it?
I did not expect this game to be as good as it was but goddamn. Not only was the writing godly, nearly shit myself laughing, but the story was interesting and had me invested.
Wow, what a banger of a game. Kinda glad I discovered Eternum first because finding out about this game right after is an absolute blessing cause its completed. Now I wonder if the threesome with the sisters are the last scene or there are some that I'm still missing yet?
What is the h manga that judie is reading in the attic?
on to the real review
I havent played very many avn's and coming from acting lessons and the absolute emotional tearfest that was I was not very sure I would like this but I gave it a chance because you could get girls pregnant and was pleasantly surprised. This is not your standard fck everything. The story is so well developed nothing is left too open that you're left scratching your head. It's an epic story with a side of sex and Eternum is making me lose sleep because I want to keep enjoying the story, it's like a book that you just can't put down. Initially I was not gonna make a profile but I had a question and this dev is just amazing in his art form and since I did make a profile deserved a glowing review.
Tldr: PLAY THIS GAME!!!! YOU WILL ENJOY THE STORY!!!
I tried downloading the game on Android and the base game was downloaded but whenever I try to install the game from my files, it won't let me even though I have enough storage for the game.
When you say that it won't let you, does a message pop up with any extra information or anything like that? I know for a while I had issues because games from "unknown sources" like APKs aren't allowed to be installed unless you go into settings and give what is trying to install the Game permission to do so.
Alright. I have had previous comments about this game. Now that I have cooled down, let me sum up my thoughts. It's just a legitimately awesome game. Downloaded it for lewd stuff, but was pleasantly surprised- not only it is great, the story is really good too. I had very strong emotion right after finishing the game (as my previous comments show), and now I remember the game just as I remember The Witcher 3 (no, I'm not kidding), because of how it made me feel. It also reignited the flame in me to create games, so who knows, maybe it'll be a beginning of something bigger in my life. I said it a 1000 times already, but I'll say it again- Caribdis, thank you for that experience!
For anyone who doesn't know if the game is worth playing or not- it is. Download it right now and experience a good fking product
this game made me create an account just so I could comment and say thank you so much for this masterpiece, the ending song made me shed tears... if anyone knows it or has a link i'd appreciate it.
the thing i love about you caribdis, the story is one of the best i've ever read, but the interactiveness you feel you make in character's lives, even like Tom, Jack, Oli, and the Tour Guide, those little addins that you don't need but make it evermore better, and your humor is fucking outmatched! XD
Also, appreciate how it's not just h-scene after scene but it's seamlessly woven into the story with perfect amounts of serious plot, comedic relief and winding down climaxes lol.
Definitely keeping this game in my "Best of the Best" folder
The story actually was interesting to me. Not complicated, but also not plain. I'm not a picky player when it comes to story, but a good ones is always enjoyable, and this one is enjoyable. The girls are awesome, it was a hard choice, but Laurens thighs made the choice. The humor, the lewd moment, the serious moment, the scary moments- everything just made me feel like I want to continue. If the game could last forever I would be playing it until the day I die.
The moments I can say are not the strongest here are some shaders and textures in some specific areas. But the character models are good, so it doesn't really bother me. Sometimes huge time jumps made me sad because I thought that there could've been so much in between it made my imagination go crazy, but at the same time a appreciate that it didn't turn into "have sex 9 time between serious scenes".
Absolutely will play through it again. Absolutely will play Eternum when it's fully released (don't want to leave myself waiting multiple times, so I'll just wait for the full version to come out). Insane respect for making the games free, you a real one for that! If it was on Steam I wouldn't even hide it from anyone. 100% achievements and fck everybody who has any questions.
Alright, scrap that. I just played through it again a couple of times. The fact that you can take FIVE girls with you is just omg thank you. The ending song brings out so many emotions. I wish there was a second part, but I bet Eternum is not gonna disappoint either. Once again- HUGE respect to the dev!
I've lost it. I've decided to give it a last watch. The ending scenes. I actually had tears dropping man. Who would've guess such a game would do it to me
I just realized why it made me so emotional. I'm fucking lonely man, and finding a girlfriend like any of the girls here is SO fking hard, it's been dwelling on me for a while now. And now this. The ending, where you get several partners for you life. The song made it so much harder to bear
I'm thinking about playing this game but I have one question cause I'm looking at the logs of the games updates, is this game complete full release or will there be more content being added
I had to make an account just to say this, Im not gonna lie i downloaded this game only because i was horny but it ended up being one of the funniest and best games ive ever played. It has really good scenes, the humor is ON POINT and even though its about the same story line as every other H-Game (being that you romance the characters and then move away with all the characters you have romanced) it was REALLY GOOD. Just the Stabby Mike story was a fucking banger, i actually almost cried when he died in the game and cheered out loud when he ended up being the pilot. The characters ease themselves into the relationships. They get introduced at a good pace. The Endings are well thought out (except the Prison one where i dont think they would get over the mc so easily if they already knew what was going on, except if they were controlled maybe but meh, just not my ending thats all) and the little easter eggs, for example with Tom were super funny even if they didnt add much to the story. For it being a super linear H-Game theres actual replayability and THANK GOD FOR THE "BACK" BUTTON without it i wouldve failed every single story line. Its an AWESOME game with my only complaint being that i cant erase my memory with that spray and play it all over again. (Stabby Mike for president!!)

Hello!
I just finished the game, and every part of it was fucking amazing, came for the nut, stayed for THE FUCKING GOOD HISTORY.
This game is fucking awesome, before playing this I was not so into visual novels, but this game turned out to be such a fun experience that I just played more and more.
Great history, great scenes, AMAZING funny moments (Stabby Mike is the best!) and for free!
I will remember this game forever in my life, the ending was amazing and I almost cried with the music. Loved all the characters and the plot.
Caribdis you're the fucking GOAT.
I imagined it would be a generic visual novel, but I received a very amazing and funny game. The brilliance of this game for not taking itself too seriously makes you never get tired of playing it! I don't even care about the NSFW scenes anymore, Stabby Mike is the MVP of this game.
9/10 Stabby Mike is amazing. He has my vote. Comedy is top notch.
this game is now become one of my fav games man i love the and the best is comic timing i played many games but this game have the best comic timing and the real life references and my fav character staby mike thanks for making this free and now all ready to paly your next eternum
今天花了差不多12个小时的时间把这个游戏玩完了，然后我就在想这个游戏还会不会有番外剧情，或者是在你的新游戏永恒里面出现客串或者是彩蛋，比如魔典在永恒里面出现，或者是本作主角在永恒里出现露个面之类的客串
Caribdis pls make update version this game is good I enjoyed the characters is good then eternum hope you notice 🔥
这游戏已经完结了，就看作者有没有时间做他的番外了
Can someone tell me how to access the save files of the game in pc and android? im trying to open it since in the dc server someone sent a save file for all the endings but i dont know how to place it anywhere.
Ok so first of all I want to state that I know that there has been a lot of work put behind this game.
Nevertheless I would like to say that there are a lot of off-putting situations. This feels like a distorted version of the world as seen by someone who does not participate in a lot of social interactions. Some of the situations depicted here are also on the borderline of being creepy, mostly because there's a tone of "grooming" in some of decisions.
Anyway, that's just my two cents on the matter.
I agree, it's probably my only criticism of this game. Some of the MC's actions definitely fall into morally ambiguous at best and outright refusing to take no for an answer at worst. I have to fast-click through those scenes since the game is otherwise amazing.

Yea same here. I thought Once Lifetime was the apex of adult VNs, then I started Eternum... Holy smokes.
I'm now forcing myself to slowly play through it so that I don't suffer withdrawal symptoms too long waiting for the next update.
I keep falling off peoples paths?
You can always select an option to see if the heart (top-left) appeared, if not just rewind and choose something else
I always do that
Just download a version with walkthrough
If you'd like some guidance, this mod can help you out.
There are many different ways you could lose a path, but they normally come down to just one specific decision you made. Even if you want a blind gameplay without using the walkthrough, it should be pretty easy to figure out by just rewinding until you find the moment you lost it.

also, i tried joining the discord but when i click join, it keeps saying "unable to accept invite" do you know of anyway to fix it?
What are all the answers to all the how well do you know your girl test?
I did not expect this game to be as good as it was but goddamn. Not only was the writing godly, nearly shit myself laughing, but the story was interesting and had me invested.
Glad you liked it!
带入不了一点看不懂文字
Im having a glitch where things in my gallery are locked even if I have unlocked them
ive installed google drive 1 but its got an error wont let me uninstall any advice?
Wow, what a banger of a game. Kinda glad I discovered Eternum first because finding out about this game right after is an absolute blessing cause its completed. Now I wonder if the threesome with the sisters are the last scene or there are some that I'm still missing yet?
That's a spoiler and no, that's the last one
作者可不可以把汉化版增加几个来源，现在这一个总是下到一半就出错
Could you please add other approaches to Chinese translation such as Google Drive?This only one always causes error in halfway.
哪位大佬知道下载了中文版显示的还是英文要怎么设置
你下载的什么版本
sorry guys, there were a scene with a marriage and envangelion's song meanwhile?

Just need some advice on what to do.

I dont know if you've found it yet, but the ending song is "I'll be Right Behind you Josephine" by Josh Woodward
thank you !
Absolutely loved the story. This is well written.
Thanks!
做得很好我会一直关注你的游戏
Alguien me puede brindar una solución el porque se prohibe una descarga en mi teléfono?
I absolutely loved the game.

same bro... same
You can take all seven.
Thank you so much 💗
hello I recently downloaded the game on android, in the web it say 1.0 version but the file name was still 0.10, is it the same?
yes it is buddy
oh thanks man, I'm just little confused
you good ?
Stabby has quickly become my favorite character
President Stabb, now. :D
I'm thinking about playing this game but I have one question cause I'm looking at the logs of the games updates, is this game complete full release or will there be more content being added
The game is complete, yes. That the game receives more content is unlikely. Right now, the dev is fully focused on his latest project, Eternum.
Thanks for letting me know ill download it right now and get started playin
64bit or 32bit? Android
yo does anyone know what happen to aiko? i just finished the game and in the last few scenes i dont see aiko? wth happend to her?
She should be there. Maybe you lost her path shortly beforehand?
SPOILER
If she questions you about the threesome at the gas station, you have to admit it to her.
ye i did
You did what? Lose her path or admit? Last option (SPOILERS again) is that you didn't get the best ending and had to choose one girl.
Came for the sex stayed for the story
I had to make an account just to say this, Im not gonna lie i downloaded this game only because i was horny but it ended up being one of the funniest and best games ive ever played.
