I have just completed this game and I... am confused. I honestly have a lot of mixed feelings about different aspects of the game. But hey this project was completed a year ago so I guess I can rant a bit about my experience without worrying about SPOILERS (The word is capped b/c I still care for people who accidentally found out about this game and would scout comments for feedback)
I'll start with the good experience I had with this game. First off, I definitely feel that this game is unique, content-wise and style-wise. Comparing to many other VN & RPG games featuring NSFW bara / yaoi content which simply offers you a good amount of opportunities to get your hands moving, without you concerning the background of the world where the story is situated in, this game has its own world to depict, stories to tell, and I feel that the devs probably already have a very completed list of world settings prepared (would love to play the sequels to find out), which is great. It's a good thing to have vanilla ice love simulators that won't burdening my neurons around, but it's better to occasionally chime in games that present you a well-written and deeper story. BGM is also a very, very commendable aspect of this game. I kinda like the genre (if there is one to this type), and the individual pieces are quite taylored for each scenario. Well, do notice that I meant fitting, not exactly "enjoyable". There are enjoyable ones, but there are also some very disturbing scenes featuring very disturbing cacophonies. S*x scenes are pretty good too, but, there is a "but" to it, which I'll mention below.
And now the "questionable" aspects of the game (To me and to me alone. The experience is highly personal, so anyone who happens to read this, don't take my word for it). It's actually hard for me to pinpoint a specific element that I enjoyed less, it's just that at some points of the game, I started thinking: it made no sense. Be it a plot, a convo, or others... well and all of the battles. Lol the game itself sometimes feel as chimeric as the monsters in it, pun intended. At many points of the game, the scenario would change abruptly and inconsistently. For instances, your MC Iuskirho can enter a hallucination and then the scene changes and you are at a new location; characters die and got resurrected somehow; or later in game (downstream), you jump from one time point to another purposelessly. I know maybe devs intentionally made it that way to accentuate the psychotic effect, but it really was a bit much to handle. Many convos are hard to understand too when no context are provided (granted that English is not my first language, and many wordings in this game were hard for me. Some names are kinda hard to remember too). And the battles...... it deserves its own paragraph.
Many battles feature enemies you simply cannot defeat. I spent a decent 4+ hours on the first chimera, retry after retry, only to find out it is impossible... Like, why offering that option then? It's the same situation for many other battles later: when your MC enters a location with a chimera, you cannot run anymore, and stepping on certain tiles causes the chimera to move towards you very fast. So, technically you can avoid encountering them, but realistically, they are unavoidable, except for maybe 2 of them I succeeded. Also, after engaging a chimera, for the only time in game, you got the option to escape. But it is a guaranteed fail. So, all the battles ultimately boil down to two types: a few battles featuring easy enemies that you don't even have to try (except for the last few enemies during the tower climbing part (upstream) and much more unavoidable battles featuring undefeatable enemies that will guarantee to get you a CG of poor, abused Iuskirho. But at the same time, you are allowed countless tries to only find out that there is little to no chance of winning or avoiding these battles (Well maybe unless you are a hacker). I call Sadism on this one. Oh and, throughout the whole game, there is no collectibles such as equipments, items, whatsoever. But there is a menu for them...?
Lastly, NSFW scenes... I have never used any substance in my life, but I imagine those are probably what one would see if they overdosed at a neon light show. CGs are great tho.
All in all, I was a gay guy looking for another nsfw bara games featuring buff dudes with an ahigo face, and what did I find? I found what I needed, and a lot more: Bug play, gender-queer Lovecraft monsters pegging a gay/bi guy, summoning a literal TOWER out of the same dude's a*s, and more... Popped my cherry and opened my eyes.
That being said, I appreciate how much work the devs poured into this work. I do hope y'all treat Iuskirho better in your new projects, if he appears. The boy had been through too much and he got my sympathy for him.
