Trapped on Monster Island

Low effort RPGMaker JRPG that fails to make use of its premise. Uncensor patch required from the publisher's website. Playtime is very brief, potentially under 4 hours depending on how much time you waste figuring out facile the metagame is, and how little content there is to discover. The vast vast majority of that time is spamming out menu commands in a grind that is busywork rather than an erotic gaming experience. [h1]The gameplay isn't very interesting[/h1] JRPG elements of eroge are pretty much always boring tedious sub-Final Fantasy busywork, and this game is no different. It tries to mix things up by having the main character be support that cannot deal damage, relying on buffing different "partners" to proceed through combat. A somewhat novel idea that doesn't change the fact that it's still just lame boring repetitive RPGMaker JRPG combat. It has the good idea of stripping progression away from combat - which reduces the combat grind in theory. In practice, the bulk of the game is still wandering around getting caught up in spammy random encounters; and the progression system is abstracted out to spamming out menu inputs at the rest stop instead.

The idea is fun but the execution is... annoying to play. I gave it enough time and it just doesn't cut it for me. As soon as you get on the island and get the ability to roam free, it becomes super daunting. Also the H scenes are just 2 images.

scenes aren't animated, and are quite average. nothing really groundbreaking here, unless you're a big pregnancy fetish lover

Like some others who have posted reviews mentioned, this game has boring and repetitive mechanics that have been done way better in other Kagura games. The pregnancy aspect was a main focus of the plot , but barely anything is actually shown. You don’t see the actual birth, or the baby AS a baby. Just a naked picture of the pregnant character sweating and like three lines of text. But honestly the worst part is the treatment of the character herself. Firstly, she is not a servant like it says in the game summary. She is a sex slave. A pretty tragic one at that. This is pretty much screamed at you the entire opening scene by every single NPC you pass. While noncon elements are pretty normal in these kinds of games, it feels like the scene writers added a lot of unnecessary brutality for shock value and nothing else. These scenes weren’t appealing in any way, just uncomfortable and legit sad as hell. And despite the game stating the main character had been in this role for many years, they still have her act like a terrified virgin with no knowledge of sex whatsoever during this segment. By the time she gets to the monster island you’re just glad it’s over and she can make a monster …

It's a good start, but sadly it's too short and only has the bare minimum CGs. Expect no more than a dozen of different CGs. Despite the lack of unique CGs, it's a good simple game. I really liked the setting (it's about breeding), and the fact sex is the goal in this game.

initially i thought i would give this game a shot since it seemed like a "so bad it's good" kind of game. it wasn't. the only reason i have 8 hours of my playtime is because i fell asleep after first 20 minutes and forgot to close it.
