In a fantasy world where humans and mythical creatures live tenuously side-by-side, a busty, weapon-savvy cafe manager springs into action when one of her employees is kidnapped by a gang of goblins. Can she safely fight her way through the lawless land of wild beats, orcs, and dragons to rescue her star waitress?
Or will she herself fall into the hands of evil as well...?

It has a crap (No pun intended) sewer level. Why do games LOVE sewer levels? WHY do sewer levels always have to be convoluted? It's a sewer, not the Minotaur's Labyrinth of ancient times. Sewer levels suck. The fact that you have to casually jog across the entire map to climb and descend said sewer instead of sprint makes it even worse. I hate sewer levels.

The Good: Controls are relatively tight and there are a lot of weapons you can equip as your floaty arsenal to slice, dice, bash, and shoot your enemies. The animations aren't terrible. Sound design isn't bad either. You can R-18 patch the h-animations in just by googling R18 and the game name and downloading the patch. It's really easy to install as well. The Meh: The animations are very short, limited, and repetitive. Most of them are exactly the same positions and animations, just with different enemies. I thought I saw the R-18 patch mention harder animations...but I didn't see anything harder than swiping with a weapon. The Blah: Either a lot of enemies don't have an h-animation, or there are just bugs getting them to trigger. Several of the bosses just stand atop you and spam their attacks, doing nothing else. Some enemies, like the worms and spiders, do so little damage and can't seem to knock you down...so you can't see their animations. There are sections, like the basement and sewer levels, where you are running down super long corridors. Often times there aren't even enemies...so it just makes me ask WHY? To make things worse, there are multiple exits t…

I think this game is just okay... Is not too fun and not too bad. Is not too hard until you try hard mode. The stroy is..., no important. I though this game can change character once you finish the story but nope. The most fun is the arena. The thing I will not recommend is buy this game in full price...

It's a bit short but the gameplay is definitely entertaining and overall interesting. Sadly, it's mosaic'd. Getting it on sale won't hurt.
