Game Review:

Four hours or so of playable content, including fully animated cutscenes, sex scenes and a well thought out sidescroller to compete with the current H-Games market in 2024. The game, surprisingly, has three endings in which some of your smaller, insignificant choices can slightly change your ending dependant on how you wanted to play the game.

This is Lunar Crisis.

From the creator of Xenotake and Ghost Hunter Vena comes a story where yes, you play as a male cyborg imprisoned on a ship who hatches a cunning plan to escape the clutches of his captors. I managed to play the game for around four hours, with adequate breaks and found myself itching to come back and continue the story of the main character. The game starts off slow, using the gradual pacing at the beginning as a tutorial for people to learn the system adequately. You play as X, a cyborg imprisoned on a shuttle headed for a Lunar Prison and you spend the game devising a plan, gaining allies and solving small but simple puzzles to escape.

The cutscenes were okay considering that this is a game developer that to my knowledge has worked on the project solely for the past two years. The story made sense, and surprisingly for an H game didn't have any continuity errors when it comes to picking choices that'll affect the ending of the game.

While the controls are simple, some scenes require a degree of thought and timing to get the correct outcome. Thankfully, with a purposeful checkpoint system coupled with the option of replaying certain missions makes this game a solid contender in a market where H games are either abandoned or are left on an infinite development nightmare where games aren't updated but the Patreons that these developers have continue to rinse you for your money.

I would highly recommend this game to people who are patient with storylines and can overlook the occasional bug. After all, it's a finished project that is getting updates to fix the small kinks that need to be ironed out. I would also recommend that you, the consumer, contributes to Vosmug's Itch page.
