How is this game?

I feel like the "repaying the debt" is a running theme...

In some aspects it is but if the game play is fun I like it, glad sex is not in the forefront but is present in the game.

Im more interested in how is the difficulty, im sick and tired of all hentai games being turn based spam attack for win games with no difficulty and each fight being there just to fake gameplay. Games for adults and their difficulty is for a 5 year old.

You can adjust the difficulty, but after you pass a certain level it autowins the battles without even entering them unless you put on an item to force the fight to happen so even if you adjust it to the hardest, you still don't have much trouble. It's good for item collection, but it does, as you say, "fake gameplay". There's not much actual plot in this game and there's no time limit for the debt, either. It's as low-risk Porn-with-Plot as you can get, but even the porn part is optional.

The biggest issue I'm having is not being able to find the most basic of ingredients, like butter to make toast, anywhere.

This game is kinda interesting, as the society reminds me a lot of ancient Rome when it comes to slavery, and how much it dominates that world's society.
Makes me really glad we don't live in such times...

Plus the game is quite Lovecraftian.
References to several gods from the Cthulhu Mythos are plentiful.
The religion of the World worships Azathoth, and the religious texts mention the gods sometimes taking human form to mingle with mortals.
And the texts were not kidding around, ran into Hastur, The King in Yellow, as an NPC.
Kinda a "How Do You Do, Fellow mortals?" moment.
So we should probably vote to add the Lovecraftian store tag to this game.


So far my main gripe is being forced to perform intimate lewd acts in some events without the option to decline, or even get straight up deflowered with no option to say no.
And this is with the Depravity stat at 0 by the way...
I expected such events to get triggered after the Depravity stat reached higher percentages, so I am a bit disappointed by that.

Examples:
- The first time working in the church, with a Depravity stat of 0, she performed a fellatio with no option to decline it.

- In a mixed bath, with a Depravity Stat of 0, she was assaulted by two men and deflowered. There was no option to decline it.
Also that scene impregnated Emma immediately, even though the game said it was a safe day...
Guess safe days don't count for anything then?

Met a hypnotist that hypnotized her, in an inn. He made her perform a fellatio while pretending to be a pig.
But unlike the other events his second event at least seems to need a Depravity of 50, so there are some events that clearly mention the level of Depravity needed.


The scenes are a tad light on different action frame poses. One picture of her performing the action, then a money shot, but No aftermath scene.
So far not seen any animations during scenes.
I like the voice acting, and the sound effects, when a scene has it included.


Also... The game has some pretty easily accessible heavy story spoilers, that you can accidentally spoil the story for yourself with, in as little as one hour of gameplay.
If Emma gets pregnant, and if you visit the Baron's Manor Basement...

Kinda wish that was gated until mid-game, or late game... As I kinda feel like I know the entire plot already...
So be warned, don't visit the Baron's Manor Basement, or get pregnant until way later in the game if you want to stay in the dark, and you want the story progression to follow a more natural curve.


Experienced one bug were I got locked out of the controls and had to quit using Alt+F4.
That happened during the previously mentioned mixed bath event twice in a row.
The game worked again after a restart.

Still Early game, so this is just my experience after having played a few hours.
Hope this is the kind of information you were after.
Happy new year to you.

Found butter in the human farm, outside town.
You probably know about it by now, but future readers might not.
