Rating: 2/5
In a landscape dominated by low-effort RPG Maker games, this title initially presents itself as a cut above the rest. It boasts a solid foundation with decent visuals, a workable interface, and the faint outline of an engaging story. Unfortunately, it quickly becomes apparent that ambition outpaced execution, and what could have been a standout experience instead becomes another middling entry weighed down by fundamental flaws.
The most glaring issue—and easily the most disappointing—is the corruption system, or rather, the lack of one. The premise promises a gradual moral descent, but what we get is a protagonist who goes from innocent to sexually active within a single day, with almost no narrative resistance or emotional complexity. There's no slow erosion of values, no inner conflict, no evolving boundaries—just a binary switch. For a genre that thrives on the tension of slow corruption and psychological unraveling, this feels like a complete missed opportunity. It undercuts immersion and robs the story of any emotional payoff.
Making matters worse, the scenes themselves are repetitive and shallow. Once you've seen a few, you've essentially seen them all. There's very little variation in tone, structure, or consequence, which makes them feel like filler rather than meaningful character or plot development. This problem is compounded by the bloated cast. Instead of focusing on building rich, layered content for the main character, the game stretches itself too thin across a large roster of side characters, most of whom receive mediocre scenes that fail to leave any lasting impression. I found myself skipping or ignoring about 80% of them simply because they added so little to the experience.
The technical side doesn’t help either. The game is riddled with bugs, crashes, and event-trigger issues that not only disrupt the flow but often force reloading or backtracking. It creates a sense of instability that makes the entire experience feel unpolished and unrewarding.
Overall, while there is potential buried in this game, it's hard to recommend in its current state. With a more thoughtful corruption arc, tighter writing, and proper QA testing, it could've been something special. As it stands, it's an average game bogged down by the very elements that should have set it apart.
