Manic Magic Ciena's Desire

Gameplay is a solid 3/5 if you're into puzzle games. The story is a nice 3/5, lighthearted, and doesn't take itself too seriously. CG are the highlight, though 4/5 I liked the devs' previous game's gameplay more, though.

[h1]THE GOOD, THE BAD, AND THE UGLY[/h1] [h2]Let's start with the good:[/h2] The game covers a virgin kink with red being drawn. It also covers lots of fetishes, such as stuck in wall, oyakodon, blowjob, anal, virgins, corruption, blackmail, NTR, cheating, swinging, voyeurism, big stick, revenge, orgy, orcs, bikini, among others. Obviously, this is not good for everyone, since not everyone likes these kinks, but it is rare to see so many kinks in a single game. Thus, why it's taken as a positive/neutral point. NOTE: Even though the game has a lot of NTR, only one character is truly being NTRed, and he is into it. The rest of the characters technically aren't being NTRed, since they are just childhood crushes or random guys who never confessed. And the reasons the females decided to accept being NTRed by a third party are mostly valid, like saving their kingdom or saving the life of their crush. Knowing this wether you get the game or not is on you. The art is unique and it has very good animations. It has many character designs although most are big beautiful women. The game is decently fun. [h2]The bad:[/h2] There is no skipping scenes even if you have already seen them, mean…

The game is overy slow, there is no menu. the main tittle has "new game" "load' and "quit' you have to save in one spot of the map and load in another section. there is no volume setting (other than controlling your speakers) Secondly the ability to skip through text is lacking, it says skip with x but that is no faster than spamming enter, also holding X for a prolonged period will crash the game before the scene is over making you have to re-peat it again. You cannot click though as you have to wait for the animation and you can't continue with a mouse clicker (no auto clicker to skip). Lastly the difficulty is that of a auto chess program were every action is done at max speed and with great planning forcing you to do the "easy mode" (only the first stage/demo is done at a lower AI difficulty after the demo area the game gets much harder to the point it's not a game but a visual novel. one last thing to note about the difficulty is you get "black spots" which disrupt your combo plans however your enemy never gets the blank spaces, if you want to try get ready to constantly have your combo spaces blocked before you can get a combo

Poor optimization aside, the gameplay is actually fun, if not way too hard at times. The scenes are well animated, but some of them drag on for a bit too long. Overall loved the Art

Weird slowdowns Even on my 4090, aside from that the CGs are nice and the gameplay is pretty fun at times, but after town two, easy mode is a must.

The game kept crashing on my main PC but ran fine on the laptop. Other than that, the game was good. The CGs are nice, and they're all animated, but the gameplay is not really my cup of tea.
