Offline access to a nice story, 18+, animated with various choices and characters with their own paths. Truly glad I came across this as I've learned and have sympathized more often than not.

Thanks!

In Germany we say "Ehrenmann" to Mike.

does anyone know that title screen song? it slaps

There are song identifier apps for exactly this purpose, like Shazam for example. This one's free: BERTYSOLO - Ne Dis Rien (instrumental)

W game!

fantastic game, 10/10 0n all aspects of the game. if you want a "game" this is the one for you, it's not just for the porn though. it has great story, plot, animations and more. I can't explain to you on how great this game is but it's truly a work of art, it should get more recognition. I played Eternum before this and that is an amassing game also, can't wait for 6.0 of Eternum.

Thank you very much!

holy actually came for the nsfw but fuck that, this game is actually so funny, would be worth to pay for it. Besides the nswf which is quite good, I launch the game because its actually fun to play! Recommend this 11/10. Also just made an acc to write a review. Thats my first review for a Game that I ever wrote.

same, I never made a review until his other game and that game made me come over to this one, his games are truly a masterpiece and need more attention.

Thank you Alicette!

do you have a way to download it on mac that isnt mega or drive?

Absolutely fucking hilarious. Letting Stabby Mike out was the best decision that I almost didn't make. Stabb 24

Yooo, absolutely loved this game, lots of comedy that feels in place and a good story otherwise, looked through the guide and I have a question.

Is Carla the only girls you can impregnate? It seems to be this way from the guide and my gameplay, so I wanted to ask here. Thanks in advance!

(+1)

No, there's more to it than the guide reveals. I could give you a very detailed answer but I'm guessing that you don't want spoilers. Keep asking if you want to know more :)

I do want to know more :)

(1 edit)

Ok, SPOILERS ahead:

First of all, playing with pregnancy doesn't change the game all too much. It explores an ideal fantasy where you start a family with your girls and there's additional dialogue and (non-lewd) scenes, amounting to ~20 minutes of additional 'gameplay' in total. If you want to see it all, follow all paths and creampie as often as possible. All 7 girls can be impregnated, though not every instance is explored in detail. Carla's impregnation has the most detail, followed by Rebecca, then Judie, then Lauren. Iris, Jasmine and Aiko can only get impregnated in the epilogue harem ending montage.

HOW DO I GET THE EPILOGUE

(1 edit)

(MAJOR SPOILERS)
The epilogue is a collection of images without dialogue. It's part of the harem ending, check the official walkthough. Additionally, you need to tell Asmodeus that you don't want to leave anyone behind and you need to follow the path of at least 2 girls, but the more the better. Grabbing the grimoire is irrelevant for this ending, the walkthrough is wrong about this.

Just to throw this in the comments in case my fellow users can't see the review:
Absolutely and without question one of the best *games* I've ever played, let alone the unquestioned best lewd game I've ever played. I've laughed myself dizzy, stayed up late from the suspense, and "sweated" plenty with every steamy encounter. I've played it on mobile, and am working on getting every possible run.

Yes, it's that good. Also the Best Character in the game made me frustrated, laugh, cry, and cheer in turns. A real lucky penny with a sharpened edge. But I won't say more about them for fear of spoiling the absolute delight. With a wide cast of characters, personalities, and genuine depth to each of them, if you haven't played it by now, you're doing yourself a disservice. Even if you've got a lower drive, this game is worth it for the story alone. The puzzles are fun and simple with just enough challenge during your first run (A lewd game with puzzles, it really does have it all!), and yet forgiving enough built into the game that  if you're playing it for the second, third, or eighth time, you can bypass the longer ones with your stunning insight.

I could continue to gush on and on, but I'll sign off for now. Thank you so much to Caribdis and Co for an amazing game, and I look forward to enjoying Eternum and whatever y'all come up with next.

Thank you so much!!

if yall like this game check out eternum its a fantastic game with great animations and a wonderful story def worth the playthrough 

(+1)

At first I was hesitant to try but the game turned out to be the best novel I tried so far. Laughed out loud and had shivers down my spine at times. Thanks for keeping it free.
Good stuff!

Probably have to replay to see more scenes and endings. I with there was esier way to see the rest of content.

(+1)

Glad you liked it! Thank you!

So I'm on Android and it won't let me download this it keeps saying the download is forbidden anyone know how to fix this?

(+1)

The "forbidden" error often occurs because your download got interrupted, and the temporary mirror that was created for your download time out and closed, returning a forbidden file response when your phone tried to resume the download. 

This is with any large download that users temporary mirrors like itch.io

Maybe you'll have better results over wifi

thx for the reply but I have tried to download with wifi and this isn't the only game it's popped up for I've downloaded other games that require small space but none of them seem to work and they all just give me the forbidden text

(1 edit)

I know you're hard at work on Eternum so I'll try not to waste too much of your time.

I have a noob question and I apologize ahead of time if it's redundant/dumb, but I was trying to download version 1.0 of 'Once In A Lifetime' for Android but the [in game] main screen says version 0.10 as does the file I downloaded. Is the version number incorrect on the file and the game? or am I just a noob?

I just want to know that I have the most complete version before starting a VN or it'll bug me.


Thank's for your time, Eternum is great!

It's the same version!

0.10 is the latest one no worries :)

(+1)

Bro I checked location 54.665395,-1.892811

Must be coincidence 

Its some ruins in the uk, maybe the temple is real 🧐🧐🧐

I'm really sad that the game ended. I wish I could play more. The ending gave me some kind of depression idk. 10/10

Thank you!

(+1)

Wow! First, I played Eternum. It made me laugh hysterically, scared me, and, of course, made me hard. It was amazing. But now that I've played this, just wow. Such a great balance. It may not be as thrilling, not as comedic, but it sure is just as spicy, if not more. But what you can't take away from once in a lifetime is how wholesome it is. Somehow you made the questionable subject of harem seem warm and happy while keeping it realistic. Your work is beyond amazing. Thank you for a great experience!

Glad you liked it, thanks!

Just finished playing, absolutely amazing game, thank you for blessing us with this! I can't wait to see what your other game brings! :)

Thank you for playing!

Alright fuck you. I definitely did not cry a little at the end.... (that was a really good story)

Glad you liked it!

just finished the secret ending and wanted to say that it's fucking genius, great game i love it

(+1)

Thank you!

Wait, secret ending!?

I like the game it's great! But it's the ending, the ending is good but it's just the end.by the time you finish eternum please add something like going back to mitsbury and interacting with the girls going dates or something but no story just that, for us to interact with the characters

(+1)

I'm sad that it's over too. Even though I don't want to say goodbye, I have to admit that the end left such a good impression that a continuation shouldn't be taken lightly. The game is a great blend of main story and character stories and it's paced really well. Just dumping out additional lewds, even if they're well made, would do it a disservice in my opinion.

If I'd want anything, it's a full blown continuation. More mysteries, more funny situations, more unique interactions. I don't know how all that would even work and the original sets an incredibly high bar to reach. But I've seen at least one - against all odds - incredible continuation to a 'perfect' game before (Outer Wilds); it IS possible.

What I'm hoping is that Caribdis finishes Eternum in ~4 years, then maybe work on something else for ~6 years and then come back to this one to let fond memories live up again. ...I know I'm delusional. Let's just be happy about the good times we have had, hm?

Eternum's ending will be more expanded 

I am playing the game right now and I am having a great time 😊 you sure know how to make your players laugh 😆 

(+1)

As a bi, I enjoy visual novels targeting men and women. I‘d like to leave a comment and say that this game is great. There‘s a right balance between story and porn. It has substance. The mystery keeps you hooked. Characters are well-rounded. I honestly love how the women never had a ridiculous rivalry. They didn‘t tear each other down and fight over a d**k, which made the ML a lucky sonuvab.

The art is really beautiful. The creator really does a great job at this. Super underrated. Truly a hidden gem. I just discovered itch.io having amazing game creators/developers. 

I look forward to your next project(s)! I know Eternum is in development, and I‘ll give that a go soon.

The p ending hurts like hell though.

(1 edit)

I only indulged in the best ending, because I am a sucker for happy endings. But I shall check that out soon.

just uh, brace yourself. Dead ending is rough too apparently. 

Thank you very much! :D

Hope you like Eternum too

This... This is one of the best games I've ever played. The ending had me in tears. All I can manage to say is "Wow..." This is fantastic all the way through.

stabby mike :D

Thank you!

funny thought, all the girls in the plane finding out they love the same man. Wonder how that panned out, ofc it's implied it went over well from the ending slides but that in between? :o

am curious if there will be bonus content to this or not. During the outro it said there would be but it's been a while since this game has been finished so idk..

It won't, I'm focused on Eternum now!

afterward perhaps?

(+1)

The opening killed me

(5 edits) (+4)

So glad I decided to give this game a shot in the dark. Even in some of my favourite japanese's comedy visual novels, have I never laughed so hard and I played this for 5-days straight! Plus the refences in this game go so hard! I honestly picked this up because I liked the designs of the female character models, but I didn't expect to love ALL of them as characters, with my fav's being Jasmine (just gotta love the queen B) and Judie who is just an absolute cinnamon roll!

I often found myself going back for Rebecca since I kept getting her path closed but the final day with her while a certain anime track was playing and her beautiful smile just made me cry so much. This game has such powerful serious moments that can hit you out of nowhere and it's honestly so good. 

The author has mentioned that despite the game being finished more scenes will be added later and I look forward to jumping back into this world again in the future and hope even that "Solo" Girl Endings are updated to give them a more personal feel if you just love only one girl in this game.

There are very few VN's on this site which can hit a good vibe between being genuine comedy and seriousness but this game just nails it, character expressions play a big part in this as even wordless moments can sell a scene.

And with that I look forward to playing ETERNUM next! But I'll give it a while to cook before diving in!

(+1)

Thank you so much!

I hope you like Eternum too :D

(+2)

One of the best game I've played. Mike best boy.

I agree

(+1)

Is there any way to keep Judie after Azazel's confrontation?

If I tell him where to go, he shoots me and game over.

If I go for the gun it advances the scene...and fine so far.

At this point I still have both Judie and Aiko's path open.

If I choose to shoot, Aiko does instead, both paths are still open. If I choose not to shoot, Aiko does instead, still...both paths are still open.

Next option(s): If I ask Aiko to come with...at that point, both paths are still open. As soon as I go to check baths, I keep Aiko but lose Judie.

If I say goodbye to Aiko, I lose her path immediately, and at that point I still have Judie's path open.

I go to check baths, look, and Judie's path is now closed.

With Judie's path at 20/41, she is all happy and loving, even at the festival. Sit down for fireworks, things move along and Judie kisses the MC.

Where did I fuck up?

Aiko is one of the side stories, so yes I'm sad if/when she goes, but not all is lost. However, Judie is part of the main story. So I'm pretty upset that I lose her no matter what I do.

(1 edit) (+1)

Ah, I get your problem man. In fact, I've had a similar problem, that's why I'm developing a mod right now that can automatically warn you of such situations, named 'Causality'. ...But you'll prbly be finished with the game before I get to complete it :)

Anyway, here's where it went wrong: Right after the fireworks scene, there's a relationship threshold for Judie: 21 points or more. If you miss the threshold, you'll miss something special and you'll inevitably lose Judie's path the next day. Looks like you're one point short, you can clutch one more by getting all 5 questions right in the quiz about Judie during the festival if you didn't already. If you already did or have trouble doing so, you need to check out the official walkthrough on page 13 and work your way backwards, there's 26 Judie points reachable up to that point.

Hope this helps! Judie's path is not necessary to finish the game (no path is) but let's say you're missing a lot if you do. Same goes for Lauren. Good luck!

(+1)

Yeah I was afraid of that.

Does her affection work like that for other quizzes? I aced the festival, and the one before that I wiggled though by trial and error, at least I think there was only one more. I might have missed one somewhere.

Aaaaaaaand I'm a bit of a of a completion whore, even for these. So it looks like I got more save-diving to go.  XD

Thanks for this btw.

Not sure what you consider quizzes here. Check the walkthrough, page 13 and before, it tells you everything you need to know. It's correct most of the time :) If you wanna catch 'em all I'd recommend checking the walkthrough regularly anyway and going back if you messed something up. That's how I played. It reduces immersion and is a spoiler minefield but until I'm done with my mod, that's the best we have. Still, I enjoyed it very much this way :D

kk, thx

I know this is finished, but I just wanted to say the music bouncing back and forth from the Music and Sound sliders.

I normally set the music low for the background, and the sound kind of high so that I can hear it through the music.

The music at the Yakuza's meeting came through the sound side of things, and well, it was just as loud as it would have been maxxed out.

Just letting you know...heading back to sucker-punch Mike.

Just finished this game not gonna lie the plot, the humour, the scene are all top notch. The varies character and there is Mike. At first I hate Mike and hoping there is no more Mike in future but boy that where im wrong. His personality and character really suit well to become the beacon of hope for our MC and that makes the plot more interesting. Kudos to Caribdis for the awesome game and jokes (The one Tom kill a student for MC really make me laugh out loud). 

Glad you enjoyed it, thank you!

Hey Carbdis, was just curious if you could link the music that you used for this project, all sounded pretty good

Hey bro, I would like to tell you that you really make a great work of art, thank you for your work which brings us so much joy.

However, may I ask you some questions about your thoughts of the ending of this game? Actually you made it to show us the true love between the hero and girls, but when it goes to the bad endings such as the hero being caught in the prison, the girls will be in sorrow,  while eventually go back to their own life without the hero. Does that mean even if you own the most intense love with someone, the feeling will still fade? And the happy ending is just a coincidence, which only means you did the right choice?

I would appreciate it if you can answer my puzzle. And thank you again for your work.

SPOILERS
The 'Cemetery ending' might interest you, it's quite heartbreaking. Keep in mind that the pictures you get sent in prison are probably sent by Astaroth to taunt you, they're not sent by them.

(+1)

Wow, many thanks for your reply. What you said is a way to understand the ending that I failed to come up with. But here is still one thing I don’t understand. If the pictures are sent by Astaroth,  doesn’t it mean that the the hero is left in the prison with no one caring?

Very likely, yes. The thing is that we don't know the circumstances under which you got imprisoned. We only know that Astaroth is very powerful and able to control people. Your family might not even know that you're alive. Astaroth hates you intensely and this is how he wants you to suffer.

(+1)

Thank you sooo much :D. I have figured it out with your help.

Hey bro i dont now how to win the tv show i had all right but it doesnt go well

There's a downloadable walkthrough among the game downloads. The gameshow is mentioned at the bottom of page 10.

*SPOILER*



I had a very sad ending at the end of the game, where i only was able to go to the end scene with Mike, and both of us died....
I guess there is a better ending, but what did i do possibly wrong?

Thanks in advance for your help!

(1 edit)

Check out the walkthrough!

(+1)

Well, I made it back, when i had to kill Asmodeus, and did it now, and of course the end was how it supposed to be, i guess.
Thanks for making this huge and awesome game, Eternum is good as well!

Came for the sex scenes, stayed for the genuinely engaging story. This is the only porn game that I can say I actually gave a fuck about the plot of. 10/10

Glad to hear that!

im in japan and the guide says i need to go to the festival to continue Judies path, but for that to happen i have to have viewed a couch scene. But i dont have a save that far back. is there a way to go back or do i have to start from the beginning all over again?

Unless you have a save in the autosaves tab, that might be the only solution yes >_< Sorry I don't have a better way

I got a very good ending .. where all the girls followed me .. also I managed to keep the path of all female characters .. very good game 11/10

(+1)

Thank you!

based on my feelings who have replayed 7-8 times. I think Caribdis has a slight bias towards Lauren. Lauren has a lot of scenes that I feel are really romantic with the main character while her sister has a few scenes that seem to be not romantic enough. let me give you an example

lauren has a few scenes with the MC like in prison, massage, bath, yakuza.

MC shows his love by protecting Lauren from the Yakuza at all costs and the two watch the moon while holding hands later, in the prison when the MC says he misses Lauren while sleeping, scenes I just said it doesn't need too much action, dialogue, but it is enough to show us how deep the feelings of they are.

Judie makes me feel like I have a little sister that I have to protect, although it's very good, it really doesn't leave a good mark as

 Lauren.

This may be my 9th time, i lost my count

(1 edit)

I always thought Judie had the more romantic interactions. Personal preference is a mayor part in this judging this; what matters are not the interactions themselves but our emotional response. If the community is split 50-50 on who's the best girl, then that's great character design. There must be at an old poll about this, right?

If you'd allow me to vividly theorize: Judie's path relies more on affection from your side, since she's shy. But replaying the game as much as you did makes you become numb to it since you've done it so many times already. Therefore, Lauren's more active way of affection becomes the prominent one. How's that? :)

(+1)

 Thanks for your idea  :D

Well, I think so, maybe my first impression of Lauren was too good. (please forgive me if I'm wrong). Lauren has more minor romantic scenes than Judie and it spreads steadily in the story while Judie focuses on certain events.

can someone please tell me how i beat the japan game show? or if i have to choose different options?

(+1)

You need to choose the correct options, yes

Check out the walkthrough

thank you so much!!

There's a scene in the gallery at the last page on the bottom right that I can't unlock. Is it some kind of glitch or secret??

It's not, you can check out the walkthrough to see how to unlock all scenes. 

Thx so much
