For those looking for yuri content, jump to the last paragraph. But overall I wouldn't recommend playing this just for the lesbians unless you also enjoy other aspects of the game.

I have 0 knowledge about who the developers are and went into the game with only the expectations that
1. It's an adult RPGMaker game
2. It's known for its Story elements

I downloaded the full adult patch first thing so I have 0 idea how vanilla the default game is.

My route progression: Knights (pure) -> Drifter (all end) -> Resistance (corruption) -> Knights (normal) -> Resistance (best end)

I personally recommend the above order. Knight's route is kind of whatever, but Resistance best end should be saved for the last. That feels like the best ending/outcome of the game. Because I also don't give a flying ♥♥♥♥ about Falke the dude.

For an RPGMaker game, Ideology In Friction has a lot of quality of life things that really make things easier: fast travel in towns, options to turn on and off special markers, H scene gallery and viewer, ability to skip certain scenes you've already seen, giving your character the ability to run Sonic fast by default, easy to track mission system, etc. I'm all for making the user experience easier and less troublesome.

Now for some slightly questionable ingame design choices (but maybe makes sense from a story point of view.) Certain sex parameters are really annoying to grind for. You need a lot of experience to hit lewdness A, but your breast experience normally gives you a piddly +10 Exp per event unless you upped the gain rate with an unlockable element. You're more likely to grind this with an NPC than enemy encounter as it's a lot more consistent, but also far slower compared to every other parameter. Yeah it's an adult game, but not everyone wants to hold down the control key for several minutes to grind sex exp when the combat aspect in contrast is so laughably easy to get through. I ended up just opening up cheat engine and adjusted the values. The game also has birth and incest fetishes, but the route to unlock this also has the least amount of maps and accessible enemies. Why is Elfin Phermone, the thing that makes enemies more likely to violate you in battle, only found in Knight's route in late chapter 4? That's about 75-80% into the game already. Speaking of which, most of the items that relate to sex are largely useless. Pregnancy prevention? Period regulator? Regular monsters are perfect gentlemen when you are playing as a virgin, even if a slime dissolves your armor it still won't do a thing. It's also impossible for Clacier to get pregnant in any none Drifter route. Did the developers plan for more things but ended up dropping them?

Combat is laughably easy even on normal difficulty. You don't have to go out of your way to grind for levels. You are practically guaranteed to level up whenever you beat the mission/chapter boss. The game also heals your HP and MP to full whenever you level up, so unless you are deliberating trying to screw up it's really hard to lose. Combat is more another way for Clacier to get toyed around by the enemies.

The female voice acting and the animations do make this game stand out above other 18+ RPGMaker games. The VA is good, animations are also really something for an RPGMaker game. But they are not what makes a game good. They are just dressings, not the main content.

For the story elements, I'm on the fence. I genuinely expected more screentime with Anette, the blue haired girl featured on the promo art. Anette feels like a very important secondary character, yet she's only playable for parts of Knight's route. In a lot of failed Knight mission situations, it's Anette who'll save Clacier's butt, not the childhood friend dude. Anette saves Clacier often enough that I have to wonder if she's stalking Clacier or has something beyond sisterly affection for her. I'm definitely disappointed that there's very little of Clacier interacting with her old pals + Anette in other routes. Speaking of, there are optional events littered around the home town that basically function as your slice of life episodes (in an H game no less.) Knight's route has more events than Resistance's. Drifter has 0 because... story reasons. I personally wouldn't mind more of these filler contents and even do something in them. Such as floofing Lita. Why can't I floof Lita?

The game has a raging lesbian who is very gay for Clacier, yet we can't really do anything with Eliza except for that one rapey event that's not even covered in the flowchart? Big missed opportunities here. Going to address the awkward post-sex situation at all? Nope? Ok...

The villains are so over the top edgelord evil it's hilarious. The title name is really fancy and all, but at the end of the day it's still about defeating the mustache twirling evil villains who are irredeemably evil. It's just the steps to get there are pointlessly winding. The Resistance leader clearly knows way more than he lets on, but he lets things play out rather than take charge of the situation. How the f did you have your daughter end up in an orphanage? And why did you only tell her you are the dad until one of the routes? The plot pushers are only competent when the writing demands it, other times it just lets Clacier be a punching bag or fap material. What is it with anime/video game dads... The reason the big bad goes around killing people is pretty flimsy. Being one dimensional evil must do something to logic.

The story started out pretty strong, but the cutting edge of the plot elements are a detriment at times. Distracting even. There are strong casts, but they are under utilized. Clacier basically has to carry the plot forward, and maybe a little bit of Anette too if on Knight route... Look, clearly the developers intend for the players to ship Clacier with Falke with the whole bickering couple tsundere thing. (I don't give a ♥♥♥♥, I want more yuri) Except Anette's the one who'll get all the attention and does the rescuing when the options are present. Falke's just there to pull a seinen moment when the going gets tough. Dude has barely any presence whatsoever in any none Knight route. I can see the logic that they don't want him to outshine Clacier, he does do a bit of that in that one part of Knight route because... yay anime trope.

Nitpicking aside. I will still recommend this game because it's a decent H game with some solid plot elements. Anette and Lita are precious. No bully.



For the yuri crowd. I mentioned the raging lesbian Eliza. Under utilized. There's a cute choco gifting scene in an optional scene. Sex scene context: She gets drunk and rapes Clacier one night. No repercussion really afterward. No dialogue follow up at all.

For Anette... Well... Optional scene has her hanging out with Clacier at a sweet shop. It's adorable, but not meant to be romantic. Sex scene context: In the Drifter route, it's full on lesbian scene with two consensual adults, but this Anette doesn't feel like the usual Anette... Alternatively, there's another Anette related ending but no sex. Clacier is caring for a badly injured Anette. The two don't have anything romantic to say, but hey, that's what yuri goggles are for.
