  This game does one of my favorite things in H-games/Adult games: Sex is part of gameplay, and not just a reward. It isn't as in depth as a game like Karryn's Prison when it comes to this aspect, but it is always refreshing to see. This game is short, though I only played it in short bursts (hmm wonder why) so while it only took me 6 hours to complete the game, I was busy with it for awhile. All of the H-scenes are top quality, and Azel's voice actor elevates this game to a much higher tier than it would have been normally. She is the only voice acted character, aside from a few female side characters who have a handful of scenes (2-3 each). The RPG mechanics are simple, not extremely deep, and it is pretty easy to just breeze through the game once you get the hang of them, but lets be real, you aren't coming here for a challenge. The game's world takes heavy inspiration from Monster Hunter, and as a fan of those games, it makes me wonder what a triple A budget Monster Hunter Ero game would look like. The game also comes with a FREE "prequel" DLC that is pretty much a prostitute simulator, that extends the life of the game by another 2-3 hours. This game gets a glowing recommend from me. The $20 price tag might be a bit high for the length of the game, so if you are turned off by the price, wait for it to go on sale and grab it then. Otherwise, I am comfortable recommending this game at full price just because of how much better it is than the majority of ero games on steam. Don't spend 5 dollars on a hentai clicker, it would be cheaper to open up cookie clicker in one tap and paheal in the other. I don't know, every 100 clicks or something switch tabs really quickly and flash some hentai on your screen. Spend money on this instead.

  A unique JRPG which is distinct from typical RPGMaker alternatives; but still has generic and uninspired h-scenes and plotting. It took me just under 5 hours to 100% it, although most of that was JRPG combat grind, and some of it was the bonus prostitution mini-game. Uncensor patch available for free via the publisher's website; although it does require a registration and login to access it.

  The gameplay isn't particularly fun

  The combat plays faster than is typical, and doesn't get bogged down in too much nonsense; but it's all very pointless and redundant and despite the game being brief and tolerably paced, it still ends up just being pointless busywork. JRPG is always a bad fit for eroge: Fantasy combat has nothing to do with sex, and isn't particularly suited to eroticism. This game tries to overcome the ludonarrative dissonance by having the lust meter act as a mana bar, which is novel and makes sense in terms of the plot. The downside is that, as is typical for the medium (with only Karryn's Prison managing to do something worthwhile), the in-combat h-scenes are really weak, underbaked, and have zero narrative significance. As soon as they are over, the main character has spontaneous amnesia and acts like nothing has happened.

  The H-scenes are perfunctory and unsatisfying

  Art assets are reused *frequently*. Which, given how little H-content there is, just makes the whole thing feel like a waste of money. There's a bit of an NTR theme in the game, but it's so superficially treated that you wonder if it's there accidentally. None of the H-scenes have any narrative significance whatsoever, so all feel totally disposable. Nearly all of them feel totally random and arbitrary and disconnected from any other part of the game. The unique selling point of the in-combat monster-sex is going to leave fans of that fetish cold because even with the uncensor patch, the staging is such that you only see the protagonist's reactions during sex, rather than the action itself. Plenty of ahegao, not really anything of what's causing it.

  The bonus mini-game is somewhat interesting, but ends up being half-baked

  Little prostitution sandbox that has the same issues as the main game's H-scenes, shares their decent presentation and animation, and likewise suffers from the lack of explicit content. It's also very superficial.

  The game's not really worth getting

  If it's on a steep discount, and you've exhausted all the alternatives, it might be diverting as a curiosity, but it's not really worth the asking price or your time; even though the presentation is marginally better than RPGMaker alternatives.

  [h1]So uh...where should I start with this...[/h1] ಠ~ಠ Uhm. [u][b]Niplheim's Hunter - Branded Azel[/b][/u] is an Eroge RPG. Well duh who am I kidding, y'all who are reading this probably knew it coming into this. [h1][u]To Summarize[/u][/h1] [b]YOU[/b] are not actually Azel, but her companion, a blacksmith. Sure you play as and take control of Azel for the most part, but you aint actually her-her. Anywho, you are her companion and the two of you while on a journey to remove her "lust" brand, step into [b]Niplheim[/b] which is often referred to as the last defense against the incoming calamity, on the path of pursuit of the evil creature that etched lewd emblems on her body. Thus the title of the game. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) First off. Lets give credit where its due. Its an Eroge, most people probably get it for well *ahem* yeah. I personally, have been following Black Train's Eroges for awhile now, mostly the Branded Azel and Daemon Slave series' and have played both. From experience, Black Train's Eroges I'd say could be considered the AAA or at least top shelf titles of eroges. Not only for the lewds though. Like I said, to give credit where its due the gameplay's fun for what it is, an RPG. The OST/BGM to be honest is fairly amazing, and boi does that artstyle just hit it in all the right places. So quite honestly this was a day 1 grab for me.

  It's hard to judge a game like this, basically a hentai RPGMaker (though actually made with the Wolf RPG Maker) game, two things not really known for high quality. As the former, it's decent, but short and not that many scenes and as the latter, it's not very good and also short, with a limited number of quests (almost all kill or gather stuff) and a handful of areas/maps that aren't particularly interesting. Perhaps the only interesting part, RPG wise, is the crafting system and even that is quite simple. (I know what you are thinking, it's a h-game, what do you expect? Well, Treasure Hunter Claire is about 5x the length, is a good RPG, and has character development) The translation is okay, but the source material doesn't seem to be particularly well written, with no character development. Strangely, although you control the character Azel in the game, there's another character, the Blacksmith, that is meant to be you the player. It comes off as rather disjointed. All in all, it's not a bad game and the devloper and publisher means well. Not worth the normal price of $19.99, it's probably worth buying on sale for $10-12 or so.

  I'll start out by saying this is the third copy of this game I own. I loved it so much that that is how much I want to support the developer. This is a must own for Eroge RPG enthusiasts and most Eroge enthusiasts in general. The CGs are well done and the characters are well designed. Voice acting is good as well. Turn based combat is fairly standard with one unique mechanic. Grinding for all the costumes is not extremely time consuming which is good, for me at least. The only negative I could really claim would be how short the game is although with the quality and frequency of the H-scenes this is easily overlooked. If you're here and you know what you're looking at, do yourself a favor and pick up this gem.

  Yeah, not surprised there are no negative reviews for this game as of this writing. It's got all the elements of a JRPG packed into a manageable, easily understandable format. It's short (took it out in 5 hours) but anymore that's a good thing when it comes to JRPGs that are trying to out-match each other in open-world RPG's that get you immersed in side-quests for 150 hours and you never finish the main story line before fatiguing. Anyway, the scenes and CG's ramp up accordingly and the game progresses with a semi-interesting story that's engaging enough to keep you around for 5 hours. Oh, and there are no balancing act game between lewd levels and character levels conflicting with each other - that trend sucks. Worthy purchase.

  [u] This one's to savour! [/u] And i am dic... [i] digging it! [/i] [strike] All Characters (letters, hah!) used in this review, are 18+ and above [/strike] RPG Elements are simple but don't feel lacking. The tiny bit of depth they have, is enough and more than i expected tbh. How the stats work: ATK increases attack (duh!) damage dealt to enemies. DEF increases Defense, lowers damage taken and if you have enough, making the enemy miss every time (becoming immortal to it) Defense is fairly powerful! (good to have when Azel is dazed) DEX, this ones sorta unique, it gives you a chance to double/triple strike using the default attack (perhaps even quadruple?) and increases yields off plants and stones found in the map. LUK, increases crit chance and drop chance on enemy death. The game is not making you grind at all , the material requirements are very low! EP: There is no mana, instead of mana/stamina you have a max of 100 EP (i am assuming this stands for "ero points"). Instead of skills costing EP, they add EP. When EP hits 100 Azel is in Heat and has to mate due to the Brand. After mating with the enemy monster, azel is left defenseless for a few turns and has to endure its attacks. Having Defense is recommended. I don't fully understand the rpg mating results and their purpose yet, but apparently the amount of ml you "milk" your enemies, will level Azel in it's own way and unlock new skills of sorts. Azels spots also level in sensitivity. (H rpg elements, cool!) Dialogue is amazing and i feel the story is well written. Nothing felt off to me so far and i have had great laughs! I have not finished the game, but i am at day 18 with level 30 Azel and had a blast so far! Now about the more juicy content the DLC delivers: The Illustrations are great, but what really tops everything (everything is great!) is Azels amazing Voice actress, i dont know who did it (i might find out after writing this) but it's GLORIOUS! They did an really amazing job with this. Not just Her, Other characters too which i throughly enjoyed also. Voiced in Japanese (Japanese voice acting is on a whole other level) The adult DLC is additionally double the size of the base game,now that gives you an idea what the game is truly about. It's that size, because the scenes are well voiced, gorgeously illustrated (in my opinion anyway, i am very picky tho) and really well written. Sort of Clever too, i like how they brought each characters personality to life in the dialogue. They don't feel cheap either, some are quite lenghty to my surprise. I really like how its not just some sm ut laden mindless f k fest. Instead it's well written, humors you and casts a charm on you. (it did for me anyway, and i appreciate it!) Often it's just a games cover that is great and tries to bait you, but this ones different (i feel) The quality you see in the cover of Niplheim's Hunter, is not only spread throughout the games illustrations, but also surpassed by the great voice acting and Illustrations in the H scenes, that are in harmony with the well written dialogue. The team behind this did a great job, and it's affordable too, thank you! Epic Game that truly excells in it's H content, without letting down its RPG elements. Everything is connected and nothing is without purpose within the game. Even the outfits, which you might think is only for your eye candy, is in fact connected to events dialogues and mini games (which will also level Azels H elements ) I like the game, and i hope you will too! Can recommend it , especially since the adult DLC is free. Suggestion to Devs: Please make an options to disable White screen flashes as example when Azel peaks. While it may serve as a visual representation of her peak, most of us probably play the game with the lights off. Ty! Good game, thank you for making this!

  IMPORTANT NOTICE: Once you have the game, do remember to download the free "Mature Content" DLC to actually have it, and then right-click your game in your list, go to Local Files and Verify Game Integrity. This ensures that the full game is both downloaded and applied. -And name the blacksmith after yourself IRL if you want a bit of immersion. Onto the review: The best description for this game would be: Erotic Turn-Based Monster Hunter, a high-quality fan-project. If you don't know the Monster Hunter series, it goes a bit like this: It is a basic RPG but you have a Base of Operations where you take on a number of tasks such as gathering resources and hunting monsters, With each stronger creature you hunt, you gain resources to craft better gear and take on even stronger monsters, which gives a lovely sense of progression rather than just buying new items. You have to get the materials for it too. This game is no different, but with a twist of sexual content and an intriguing story. Personally I love Monster Hunter World, so naturally this game is right up my alley and will probably be enjoyable for you too. Fetishes include both Vag/Anal sex, Nips and Clit play. I probably can't use the full words as Steam might censor it or else I might edit this review to use slangwords, though I'd rather not. I enjoy this game, I recommend it. Price point is a bit sharp, but the quality I found within this product is worth it in my eyes. If you can pay 60$ for the latest Call of Duty or Grand Theft Auto just to sate your murderboner, you can throw about 20$ at this to sate your lustboner. EXTRA: The publisher, Happyhand or whatever his name, seems to be active in the game discussions here and that absolutely makes it a lot more of an enjoyable experience when you can ask someone for help to progress. Love it.
