it's too short way to short

Y'all have some audacity to put a ten minute game on Steam for $11.99 plus tax. Everything is pretty meh, the animated scenes are cool and all, but way too subdued to be worth anything. DO NOT buy this unless it's on like a 75% off sale. Literally a waste of time

It has great art and thats about it. The game is REALLY short (between 15 - 25 mins), it lacks variety and content. It's such a shame, because the combat is basic but solid and could be so much more (right now its the same stuff: block until you get enough points to cast your 4th skill, repeat it with a few different enemy sprites and you're at the end of the game). Right now, the game doesn't worth its asking price at all. Get it on a deep sale for like 2 ~ 3 bucks if you want those H-videos (H-scenes are great, but not interactive).

Wow could you have put any less into the game play? I mean we are all here for the H-scenes but come on at least make it seem like a game.

Sure the scenes, if you lose, are decent but still lack a whole lot in anything substantial. Absolute waste of time, game and money. If you can get it for <$1 then buy it, otherwise don't waste your money. Beat it in 45 minutes and that was LETTING MYSELF get defeated to see the endings, not realizing you will get to see them all at the end anyway. Also spent time leveling up all the little gear, which wasn't necessary but hoping to unlock something....???
Unfortunately I didn't play it until outside of the 14-day window for return so don't be like me and waste your money.

Wait until it's on sale, this game is so tiny it's not worth full price.

Likes:
-The artwork is VERY good. I wouldn't say gorgeous, but it's well done and easily the best part of the game
-Sexy protagonist
-H O T tentacle H-scene

Dislikes:
-The game is insultingly easy and simple. Literally the only obstacles are the enemies, there's no creativity in the environment you walk around in beyond the incredibly well done background art. You can jump, but there's nothing to jump over. You literally just walk in a straight line from one enemy encounter to the next
-It's EXTREMELY short and easy to beat
-There's no zoom in function for the sex animations, which are(let's be honest here) the main selling point of a game like this. It's so far zoomed out you can't appreciate the animation, which itself isn't impressive at all. They COULD be good, there's potential with each of them
-While the art in the H-scenes is beautiful, the animations are so disappointing. The movements are too slow, too shallow, and too stiff. Pretty to look at screenshots, but watching it in motion is just a let down

Well, this is less than 45 minutes of quite underwhelming content. Some of the art is alright, but it's certainly overpriced at 8 €.

Estella's Nightmare is a game that doesn't do anything particularly wrong, but also doesn't do anything particularly spectacular either. The story in the game has a decent beginning and setup, but never really manages to go anywhere. Everything just kind of happens with little to no explanation, motivation, or reasoning, and all wraps up rather quickly at the end with little payoff.

As for the combat it plays out kind of like a rhythm game where you alternate between block the enemies attacks with the space bar and casting spells with the number keys. It's decently fun but gets rather tedious quickly and never really evolves or changes much as you progress.

The entire game can be easily completed in under an hour making the game almost feel more like a demo project rather than a complete game. The strongest part of the game is probably the fully animated H scenes which are very well done and look fantastic but if you are looking for a deeper or more involved H game then this might not be the one.

If you'd like to see a closer look at what the game has to offer I have a short video review on YouTube.

Game takes 20 minutes. This is a $2 game in terms of content. If you can get it for that price, you might be fine with it. I feel like I got ripped off at the $10 price.

This game is HEAVILY overpriced and is at BEST a $2 game. I finished the entire game in around 30 min and overall the gameplay was really ♥♥♥♥, you think there would be more content but there isn’t. The sex scenes are piss poor and that’s what really makes this game disappointing, you would think that a game that costs $12 would have some good content but it doesn’t. Either get the game when it goes on sale for dirt cheap or don't get it at all, you will be disappointed.
