Past Mistakes - Act I

[h3]✍️Overview [/h3] Past Mistakes is an 18+ visual novel which tells the typical story of a hero summoned from another world (isekai). This world has a medieval fantasy theme and features fairies, orcs, magic and elves. However, that's not all: the game's strong point is its interwoven narrative, which shifts between the fantasy and modern worlds in an interesting dual storyline, In which the protagonist tries to live his life as both a hero and a salaried office worker. [h3]📜Story[/h3] The story begins with an introduction to the fantasy world of Cadagan, ruled by Queen Ophelia and her four retainers: Jade, Evelyn, Lunna and Phoebe. The land is attacked by an evil being named Monn Molian and his powerful, fiery allies. They easily subjugate the queen and her retainers, forcing them to summon a 'crossless' — a kind of hero from the earthly world — who becomes the protagonist. Once he arrives in the fantasy world, the protagonist is informed of the situation and told that he must defeat Monn Molian in order to save the queen. However, first he must train with the four retainers to become strong enough to face Monn Molian on equal terms. This story is not what it seems. It starts …

An isekai game with an interesting concept regarding the crossing from one world to the next and back. This mechanism alone is enough to create drama and cause difficulties for the MC. If you like isekai games with the MC going back and forth between the modern-day real world and a fantasy alternate world, then this game will scratch that itch. As it is EA, you may need to wait several months before it really gets into the meat of the story, but at the time of this writing, it's a solid start. The renders are quite good from a technical viewpoint. Whether or not you like the subjects of the renders is all personal taste. Many of the female characters are too top-heavy for my likes. I've seen worse in other games, but it's bad enough here to be a negative distraction for me. I'm sure for some players it will be a positive distraction. To each his or her own, but you know what to expect now. Not a lot of content here yet, certainly not enough to make it worth the price paid, even on sale. But there's definitely potential here. In the EA notes, the dev says they intend to raise the price of the final version from what the price is for the EA version. They'll need to add a [i]ton[/i]…

OK, so... This came out in late July 2025. But it's now Mid April 2026, and they've hardly done anything. Yeah, the artistry seems great. But the story is clunky, robotic, and not at all entertaining. It is so very wrong for a Dev or Publisher spits out an incomplete game. Complete the F'n thing, then release it! I really hate these F'ers. So here's another Dev I'm boycotting anything from. And as far as this incomplete P.O.S. goes, it'll be uninstalled, and erased from my library A.S.A.P. Incomplete is the same same as broken, in my opinion. Can't believe the F'ers conned me into getting a broken F'n game! Save your $! Go find a complete AVN. You'll get nowhere with this, like the Dev is getting nowhere.

First i'm going to say i'm taking a chance on this avn even with it's higher price for an ea title. This is a complete honest review from my perspective from start to finish, your ideas may very. With any game the first 15 mins makes or breaks the game and immersion. The whole overlay in the castle just turned me off. It made everything look soft. Personally i would have like to see particles used, and it flowing in vs a whole soft screen. Of course i know the dev was going for a feel of the environment and art style, but wasn't my cup of tea. From what i understand he fixed this after i got the game. It's refreshing to see that if you didn't filter or forget you can change the futa gender on the fly. The xray option is used well, not what i was expecting after playing so many games, most use xray to show a guy into the other person. This xray just removes cloths. The ladies are thicc but not overly exaggerated as some japanese ladies are in anime. No super deformed ladies here. I played all the content that is here, all 3 paths in 111 mins. I think the quality is here for a great game, so i think i made a wise choice taking the risk, but time will tell. The only thi…

Great Game :)
