Well, after finishing a 140 hours JRPG you really need something easier to just reset the mind after pouring so much emotion into one game. And what's better than a cheap retro-platformer game that sells itself on sexiness that is developed by a company called Hentai Room... wait, that wasn't in the description of the game! Whelp, I'm glad it's a couple of years to I turn 40 cause this is getting sad. I just saw the comercials on the Switch and it was gonna be a metroidvania like puzzle plattformer with very good graphics... mostly amazing backgrounds and yes, good sprites, especially the voluptuous main character that can't stand still making her bossom jiggle constantly. I'm probably beyond shame at this point. And what happened with the Metroidvania-elements I thought I saw? Damn those jiggle physics!
The story being that there was two clans with different philosophies on using magic, a war broke out and one side destroyed the other and now the witch Sofiya have learned the magic of the ancient clan that was destroyed and set out to stop her former master that destroyed the ancient clan. Pretty straightforward. So instead of a single metroidvania map, we instead get 3 chapters with a bit over 10 parts in each chapters. You jump around throwing magic spells defeating enemies, get to the end defeat a boss and find different books that give you pixelated picture with lewd art that tells a bit of story. Only a couple of hours. A bit stiff controls and such, but it works. Not fan of the instant kill spikes that is the most dangerous thing about the game. Overall, a distraction at most.
I thought that was that, but turns out I went into a rabbit hole by looking up this game. It was pretty much a hentai-game in its original release (well, when the developer is Hentai Room, I should probably have expected that). For example, I thought it was strange with a lot close-ups of Sofiya in the books with some lewd description and hinting of other people in the conversation. Turns out it was straight-up sex scenes. Ok, and one of the gimmicks of the game was that Sofiya could have sex with defeated enemies to get potions for health and magic. And the games original name was Sexcraft: Sofiya and the lewd clan. Clearly, I got the inferior version, this made the story make sense at least. Well, the console version have a bit of replayability in that you are fully powered up meaning you can defeat enemies fast if you go back to the first chapter and so, but I think you would get more from the uncensored release, even if it's just material for ones alone time. Console, one and done. Still, looks good and sounds good, a bit short overall.
