v0.6.2 N.A v0.6.1 - 10 scenes with Lucille and Werewolves in the swamp (you may access it only after acquiring a Silver Lamp through a dungeon in the misty fields) - general bug fixing with Marshall, now he's finally playable. (You can skip it in the recollection room, but use it only to see his scenes in the room. If you use the cheat to recruit Marshall, Lucille will NOT go to him by her will untill you'll recruit him in a legit way or recruit Isolde) - a visual bug where Lucille's chcker red cross didn't appear on size comparison scenes has been fixed - added cock comparison between marshall and eadric. Also added the same skill for a future werewolf companion - Fixed a bug that prevented Lucille to go to Marshall (still present if you use cheats to recruit him) - well fixed a fuckton of bugs that prevented Lucille to go to Marshall in general - Fixed a dialogue in the intro, also an image in the intro that didn't fit properly in the screen + added new character sprites in the mysterious palace cutscene - changed UI and font - renamed "magic" in witchcraft - fixed a bug that prevented daily events to work - fixed a minor mistake in a cutscene with Helm - fixed some typos v0.5.9 WHAT'S NEW: -Made a "EroStatus" System. Unfortunately I need to manually put a lot of values in older scenes so it's still incomplete. -Made pixel arts for Azaleth, Damien and Rosabelle, even if they do not appear yet -Swamp reworked completely -Added Swamp Monster (no harassment scenes yet) -fixed a visual bug on Helm face set - added "dating" system with Isolde. Every 5 points of affection you can have segs with her. Of course I'll add a cheat for this update so you can see the events imediately in the gallery - added "Hollow interrupting system" with Isolde. When you date her, there's 20% chance he will come up and steal her from you, wasting your night - Marshall recruitment is half-way done, so please don't enter in the swamp sewers because you might get stuck WHATS' PLANNED FOR 0.6.0 -Marshall recruitment -Good part of Marshall x Lucille scenes, both human and lycan form -Hopefully swamp demon scene Hopefully swamp demon harassment in battle Hopefully enemy lycan scenes Hopoefully enemy lycan harassment in battle I have the feeling next update will be very good and with lots of things v0.5.7 - Put a NPC that fixed the game breaking after the hollow sex ritual, you can port your save from 0.5.6 and talk to him, I THINK he should fix it - The purple man can fix the problem mesoru had. I think he can port his save and talk to him to fix everything - Fixed the bug that let the game think you were stuck in a cutscene from the sex ritual - fixed the way the game perceive your party number so you can go to the sex ritual in late game as well - blocked the boat, that's a work in progress map and better to not allow you to roam in there and get stuck - fixed some party members response to dating. Alvar, Helm and Exec won't date you. Isolde will, but it's still work in progress -fixed the bug that fucked the game after the hollow sex ritual -one of the logs in the forest couldn't be cut by executionor, now it can -"The hollow fuck scene in the demon tower get you stuck in the bed" this is the only one I couldn't replicate nor fix, no Idea why it happened -fixed a bug that allowed you to bring more party members than intended -fixed Isolde's portrait in party -fixed a bug that prevented you to see Helm's first scene with Lucille -fixed a bug (I thought I already fixed) that prevented Isolde to go to Lucille at night -Deleted a weird Gisela in the misty plains that did weird meta things v0.5.6 - Added "ask for sex" scenes with Executioner - Fixed a bug in the room at west side of the villa v0.5.5 - Fixed the west part of villa, now you CAN exit from there - now "spend time with Isolde" works properly - fixed Executioner disappearing after fucking Luclle in phase 3 - added more cheats in the recollection room (mainly affection points raising cheats) - fixed Alvar appearing randomly in size comparison skill v0.5.4 - Now all Isolde's scenes with Lucille are ready, including size difference skill. You need A LOT of affection though because she has more scenes than the other characters. - now you can talk with your companions at home about the latest important event - now you can access to the left part of the villa (still incomplete, needed for story parts) - implemented Executioner and Isolde public sex with Luc during phase 3 - replaced the Angus scene sketches with proper illustrations - fixed a bug where Executioner's sprite stayed in Lucille's room after fucking - Added a new feature in the confessional in Alvar's church. Now Lucille can pass some time alone with someone, like a "date". You won't be able to see them but their affection will raise by 3. That's a good way to farm affection points! - Now Executioner, Helm and Isolde will "steal" Gisela when you'll try to kiss her outside of the villa. - also Gisela now appears in the harvest fields and have new dialogues in harvest fields and graveyard - Gisela's show is now updated when you're outside, now she will have different things according to all the horses you find - Other than the usual scenes with Isolde, there are some unique you can find while exploring. scene 1: right outside the villa scene 2: abbey garden inside scene 3: forest, one area near the lake scene 4: somewhere at the graveyard scene 5 harvest fields, near the lake, on a bench scene 6: swamp these scenes are untested so please let me know if they're buggy or something! we have literally 60 new CGs and 21 new scenes with the new bull, a real record... and we're not even finished yet with Isolde! The next step will be working on at least 10 scenes with Eadric!!! But I will postpone it for a while. Next step for me is to stop with Artificial Blood for a while to add more content to NTR bunnies and Cuckoo Mask v0.4.3 - Now you can ask Lucille for sex she has 8 scenes, each 2 of them are unlocked by having affection kiss: no affection required - You can now recruit Executioner! Go to the graveyard and do his quest *Unfortunately I wan't able to finish his drawings so he got no scenes - Now a bandit will show up in the church after 50 affection towards bandits and fuck Lucille's mouth if asked - lots of ghost scenes in the graveyard - Now a couple of ghosts will appear in the garden of the villa after 10 and 25 affection points with ghosts. They will do things with Lucille's mouth if requested - Ghost and the boss of graveyard are HUGELY resistant against normal damage. You'll need bullets, magic and holy damage to beat them. - You can now ask Lucille to have Sex with Hollow, Helm and Alvar at home. You'll need 50 bulls affection points and lucille's affection points, so this is a late game thing. This will have a scene (with previously used CGs), make time pass and raise bull's affection points. Hollow: For now you can only ask for kiss, bj and thighjob. Will add other if I'll do more CGs Alvar and Helm: You can ask for kiss, bj, thighjob and sex. - Now Hollow will visit Lucille's room after 5 affection points, like the other bulls. Right now he only has kiss, bj and thighjob, will probably add more in future - Added a MAP in the forest you can use to orient yourself in the forest. - In the phase 3 of the game, Lucille won't hold back and will have sex with other people at day time too. Right now it's implemented but 1) sex sprites are ugly placeholders 2) in the poll " from 50 onwards, randomly kiss or kiss or sex but with higher probability of sex" won, but right now it's not implemented so at 50 affection or higher Lucille will only have sex with the bull. Anyway phase 3 is normally unlocked after you recruit witch/vampire/werewolf/demon, however I will let you access to it through cheats talking with hasselnut - fixed some bugs - changed the bullets laboratory door. Now you only need Alvar to enter, so you can already have 4 stamina points from the beginning - changed the stamina potion maker door. Now you only need Alvar to enter, so you can already have 4 stamina points from the beginning - NOW WE HAVE X-RAYS! It's work in progress but you can check Lucille mouth and puss when you're at home. This will be unlocked through an Oligarch quest, but you can obtain it via cheats - Now you can enter in harvest fields and swamp but there's literally nothing inside so don't bother exploring it yet KNOWN BUG: - SOMEHOW Executioner is weirdly bugged and you can't add him in your party. Nothing of value is being lost because he doesn't have scenes, this will be fixed in the next release! - Seventh room in the second floor on graveyard's crypt is unaccessible - one of the Executioner sprites at graveyard has the sprite of a giant cultist v0.3.5 - fixed a couple of bugs - you can now go to the recollection room talking with Hassel at center of the mansion's - hassel can fix a bug if you transfer your files - replaced Bandits, slave trader and boss bandit enemy picture - added BULLET SYSTEM. Now Eadric will be able to deal more damage with new kind of bullets. You can find it having the bandit in your party and exploring the closed houses on hollow village - AT 30+ affection with Lucille, you unlock "Check mouth". If there are other people in your party and you're checking her mouth, they might interfere if they have enough affection points - AT 40+ affection points with Lucille, you unlock "Size comparison" skill. You can ask her to compare your cock with other party members! Embarassing. - fixed the harassment system, now should happen WAY more - bandits fight now will harass Lucille, like hollows and cultists - Some of the blocked doors are now accessible with the bandit in your party. Unfortunately not all of them have content rn - Now Alvar can learn new healing spells reading bibles - Some cameos added but they're hollow advertisment. Gonna add TRUE cool cameos in future scenes: - added an Alvar scene (30+ affection) in the forest - now Alvar will do something different when opening the gates if he has 10+ and 40+ affection - two nasty scenes at hollow village in a locked door (requires the bandit to open the locked door) - a bunch of bandits in the hideout after you recruit Helm - you can work at the bandit's bar and leave Lucille with bandits. That's a good way to farm money but uhhhhh v0.2.5 Initial F95 Release - OVER 1 hour of gameplay. - Hollow village and cursed abbey fully playable - 4 reclutable characters (so far) - some extra sketched work in progress scene

Very good NTR game! I loved the universe of Naughty Tales of Rabbits. The combo NTR/bi/humiliation is amazing. The arts are good (mixt of cartoon/anime) All bulls are interesting and have their interest. I can' wait the next update.

Scryon 2026-03-03 ★ ★ ★ ★ ★

(spoiler-free review) The combat is much better than in NTRBunnies — it’s more developed and refined, especially considering this is still a beta. The lore is very interesting and well expanded. One downside is definitely the beginning of the game (specifically the relationship between the main character and Lucille). At first, it’s hard to understand how you’re supposed to feel about her, and as the protagonist, it’s difficult to fully immerse yourself in that dynamic (but this only applies to the first hour of the game). Other than that, the game looks very promising, especially since it’s created by Hyanmaru .

I like this game so much. The beggining is a bit slow, until you get the first bull, but after that... *chef kiss*! I can't even list what I like, because I would basically put the whole game here! For what it could improve... Well, it already has gay content that can be avoided, but I would love get more of it, particularly with other bulls. No need to be traditional m/m, maybe something like drinking cum, dick slap, or with the bull being annoyed for the cuck getting to participate. Alvar might be my favorite bull yet.

SenzaNomexD 2025-10-09 ★ ★ ★ ★ ★

One of the best games on this site, i enjoy this developer very much, too bad he's very slow at making things in general... I paid for his other games and will pay for this too. I love how you can share her around (or not) it's your choice everytime. She enjoys it don't worry. Gameplay is a much better step up than the old game. Also has very fetishes scattered all around the game! It's is written that she CAN leave you but i don't know if it can happen. Please just finish this game already.

This creator does the same mistakes every game, making the characters barely vocal during very short sex scenes. I don't want to see a wall of text saying "plap plap plap", give us some actual dialogue. Other than that the art style is cute but I did not appreciate the tons of futa there is in this game when there isn't even a futa tag.

Deleted member 7273317 2025-05-24 ★ ★ ★ ★ ★

Love this game so much, that to this day it remains the eroge that I spent the most hours in a row playing in my entire life. And even though I've played it so many times, I often find myself creating new games and starting the entire adventure from scratch just to be able to enjoy more of this universe. The immersion is great and the game never ceases to surprise you with creative ways of delivering the H scenes, the random interactions that do not depend of the MC to happen, and the other that happen because of the MC 'bad decisions' both give to all the characters an autonomy that makes the game itself more real and the characters more "alive".

Hyanmaru games are always excellent, and Artificial Blood is not an exception. And this game has the potential to bee top tier. 10/10 in art 10/10 in charachter design (Lucille is super hot) 8/10 in Lewd scenes (It could be a good option to avoid completely gay scenes)

Introduction i only really write reviews for games that are 4 stars or higher since they deserve a good score but i guess i forgot to write my review for this one lol. before i say anything i just want to clarify that the only big problem with the game for me is that its just unfinished . otherwise i'd consider a 5 star rating cause the other issues i have are nitpicky, preference based or easily fixable Game Description you will adore this game if you are a fan of any of Hasselnut's previous creations whether that be his past games, artwork or VNs. the premise of the game is that you need to help your girlfriend Lucille find 4 keys scattered across 4 different realms of the game world to unlock a specific door. as you go, you add more members to your party, fight enemies, learn about the world and experience the one sided open relationship between you and Lucille Things I Liked: - Lucille is hot/cute and well written. alot of the characters are good in general really i like all of them and dont dislike any. the dynamic between Eadric and Lucille is adorable and the other members of the party have their own quirks - artstyle is great . its so unique that if you put an AB scene on r34 without prior knowledge of the game you would know its a Hasselnut creation just by looking at it. its got its own charm and has great sex appeal - there are sooo many fappable porn scenes . a common complaint with these types of games is that there's not enough scenes but believe me there is. and because Lucille is presented as a "sex addict" from the very beginning you arent forced to sit through corruption progression to wait for more lewd scenes, they are there from the start. exception being scenes with party members - the RPGM combat is actually fun . 95% of games on this website at least in my opinion dont have fun RPGM combat, which comes from a need to grind and is super boring. you dont need to grind in this game, and its fun (not boring) because its simple: you just find enemy weaknesses and deal the appropriate damage or element type. i also like the unique bullet mechanic that is cool - i like the setting . most games try to do their usual defeat the demon king setting in some mythical medieval country so this dark gothic looking setting is actually a refreshing change to see. i also like the music choices, the harvest field one is my personal favourite - the story is good , i guess. i dont usually play these games for the story but the premise is good and makes sense. especially because the prologue builds a really strong attachment between you and Lucille so you feel obligated and encouraged to help her complete the story and stick with her to the end - cuckoldry is perfectly executed . really just throwing this out there, actual decent cuckold RPGM games where you are a weaker cuck and enjoy/help your girl to have sex with other stronger men are just few and far between. i think Hasselnut is the only one doing it properly, the way AB (and his other works) present this genre is clear proof that he knows/appreciates the genre a lot Things I Disliked: - its unfinished . oh well... we can wait! probably - minor bug issues . sometimes when i tell Lucille to spend the day with Alvar it tells me my party is full or something like that and refuses to let it happen (fixable by removing and adding members to your party). the bug that lagged the entire game was hotfixed at the expense of getting rid of Lucille groping moments (sadge). etc, so i hope those get patched as the game gets updated - some uninteresting scenes? honestly some of the NPCs that are capable of banging Lucille dont interest me like i didnt bother doing any of the ghost scenes in the graveyard i found interactions she had with humans or the party members better Conclusion as you can see i like the game far more than i dislike it and my negatives are short and preference based/nitpicky so truthfully i think this is a solid game which i really enjoyed and am keen to follow each update when it inevitably comes out

For those interested in the kinks this game is centered around, Id say this is definitely one of the better games out there for this genre, no doubt. The art is good, though I can understand some may not like it, everyones picky, but for me, I like it. The story so far, better than most. The characterization, I like it. The reason why we are all here, yea, that content is great imo, the articulation, the scenarios were presented with, the progression systems, good stuff, though would be nice if the GF had a body part progression page but yea other than that, good stuff right here.

disallowed_words 2024-12-10 ★ ★ ★ ★ ★

Lots of content if and only if you like to see a person (the MC) cucked in dozens of situations by a lots of enemies and party companions during the battles, just walking, quest interactions, nights, skill uses etc. All the game mechanics are dedicated to it which is brilliant if you looks for fresh in this genre. Don't want this => skip this game. Comparing everything with VN on realistic visuals => why rate this game, its is another genre, another focus. 5/5 Characters Companions, enemies, neutrals have really different personalities and there are lots of them. Enemies/neutrals gives quests that are 100% matches their role and usually includes corruption. Great source of original content. The heroine is also different with them (in approach) which is realistic. 4/5 Game mechanics Even opening the magic door or cutting the log end up in sex scene after the certain amount of relations with companion. What can be better in such genre. 1 point off cause it can be better teleportation system or smth with navigation and highlighting un/explored interaction. It's actual for > 0.5 vers when map became large (which is good) 4/5 Text & Visual Graphics a little bit rough but the camera angles, poses, expressions, overall style consistency is decent. It is more like sketches by an artist instead of failed pictures by the non-artist (won't mention the authors in this genre if you know you know) The main hook is the text and situations. The pictures is just a support and it works. Some models are reused in some scenes but I find the ratio of (amount of content) * unique poses/reuse = okay number. 5/5 Originality Some of situations are unique. I will remember them forever. 4/5 Handling You can choose which request to accept, which companions to seduce and which to skip, certain shortcuts to get lots of point in relations to skip the grind. Gropes by wandering enemies can be avoided by you choice. So you can select the content you want. Has gallery with conditions how to obtain the scene. 1 off again by not so smooth progress and navigation, I guess advanced teleportation has to open after 3rd location. The game have rough flaw on the edge of version due to auditory request to hint future/unfinished locations and paste even non-colored sketches into the game. If you like only smooth gameplay just play up to (current version - 1) content

Greediestestest 2024-11-05 ★ ★ ★ ★ ★

First soly about this gameplay. - you are constantly throw back to the bed because you can only take 2-3 action a day and sometimes only 1. -often it bugs and blocks you by making it so after talking to npc after winning the fight you become unable to open chest as you get teleported home and npc no longer lets you enter there. -mc lacks any gameplay mechanics, he can only heal and punch, adding even basic skill for him would be easy. -why is there spell tab if everything is a skill. and why is there "bullet" tab. -some interactions are not working unless you interact from correct direction -all sex scenes are one image at most 2 with close to 0 changes. -most sex scenes are copy paste, with no actual differences accept colors. -blindly running around and lack of quest book/tab sex scenes 2/5 (all mc scenes are 1/5 for micro penis garbage) it would actually be 1.5/5 for repeating sex scenes gameplay 1/5 tiresome boring, repetitive story- (it exists????) 0/5 art style - 1/5 pixel mess, sex scenes art style 4/5 if it was used for actually good scenes and with more cgs per sex scene it would be nice, and without garbage micro penis trash. One if those games where mc has no reason to exists and removing him would make game better. Boring and garbage mc micro penis trope that made most scenes with him worthless. Like why the hell make it into ntr game, it could just be rape game like most or simply lose woman mc game. NO IT HAD TO BE THIS GARBAGE NTR. Like it lacks any sense, any interesting twist or anything. EVEN IF YOU LIKED CUCKHOLDERY HERE MC IS OK WITH IT SO IT IS NOT EVEN NTR IT IS JUST OPEN RELATIONSHIP. I am so tired of most games being this bad ntr. why is 99% of the games this garbage.

Mister Wake 2024-10-26 ★ ★ ★ ★ ★

I cannot believe I never made a review for this game. This is one of the most well made, custom artwork and fantastic story cucking stories out there on RPG Maker. It is so excellent in its design, sprites and systems that I fully believe it deserves all the attention and support it can get.

RenTheFemboy 2024-10-20 ★ ★ ★ ★ ★

the game is insanely good, I love the content, the NTR and SPH are done very well. The GF and the MC are both very good looking and have an interesting dynamic. Personally I like NTR to be a bit more harsh, but this light game is also very good. Some things I would change is that, the npcs can be a repetitive which wouldn't be a problem if not for the fatigue system. I'm ok with spending an extra 5 mins, but with fatigue I have to go back and forth way too many times. Also adding more cute characters would make the game more fun imo! Also a guide from anyone would make the game way more bearable as I still cannot find the gardener's key lol.

Rigurd 2024-08-27 ★ ★ ★ ★ ★

This game is good, just like the previous one. I love the art style they create, and even though it's an RPGM, it's not grindy. The scenes are cool, and the characters are pretty awesome. 8/10 overall from me!, but 10/10 if it's completed. Can’t wait to see what they add next!.

Volxie 2024-08-18 ★ ★ ★ ★ ★

I liked it a lot more than I expected, it's one of those sleeper games where I thought it'd be 'meh' at best, but I was wrong. I can't give it a 5/5 because it's not a great/fantastic game, it has gripes that mostly are just either bugs or dev's choices, I wouldn't describe them as objective flaws in my eyes. But, I'm sure the game does have those outside of bugs. As a NTR RPG game, the combat doesn't make me want to die, you don't have to lose to see smut, the MC isn't ENTIRELY a pushover & his love interest isn't always going out of her way to be terrible to him, and the game doesn't have that mean-spirited vibe that turns me off. What annoys me is the stamina system, party member and enemy-type affection grinding can be a slog, and there are a few preeetty bad bugs that ended up with me having to start from scratch which would have been even more of a nightmare if it weren't for a few debug NPCs. That being said, if someone would want to make a NTR game themselves, I'd say this game is one of the best examples to follow. It breaks typical tropes, but it's still a good Netorase game, that has healthy sprinkles of other types of NTR.

pepp1 2024-08-17 ★ ★ ★ ★ ★

Absolutely GOATED I can't wait to see more updates. I don't usually write reviews so imagine how good the game is that I'm doing it. The art style is good, the scenes are great, the characters are sexy and the game has great potential.

ara1111 2024-08-17 ★ ★ ★ ★ ★

I'd call this more of a swinging game than a cuck game. Its actually fairly gay. When you go to the ghost area, the ghosts will kiss or deepthroat through one characters head into the other, which the MC (male, with a cock in his throat) never seems to have any real issue with and the girl thinks is hot. There's also an entire character who predominantely is focussed on sex scenes with the male MC. There are a few scenes where the girl neglects her bf in favor of a bigger cock or explicitly states she's "only for the guy banging her" in the heat of the moment, but for the most part it doesn't really have very strong "cuck" energy compared to "open-relationship" energy. Its pretty unique, at least from what I've played, in that the girl will generally only act if you actually tell her to. You'll see NPC's asking for a kiss, a pussy, whatever, and you can choose whether or not she offers herself and in a later area if you leave her alone with them and if you spy. If you do the spying you'll find she's lying about what she did (for no apparent reason; mc is explicitly fine with her sleeping around and does so himself), butthe whole scenario happened because you said yes to begin with. So its more netorase than netorare, but done much better than most. The girl herself shows little to no reaction to the MC getting involved and generally doesn't seem to care beyond thinking its hot sometimes. Outside of that, game is good. Its a porn game where the porn is very easy to access and its hot. I'm big on oral and this game is also big on oral, so that's a + from me, but probably a - if you're not. It reuses a lot of scenes/pics, but mostly not so much to be annoying. One or two guys per area will have basically the same scene, mostly in the cultist place. The combat is pretty easy once you gain a few levels which I also appreciate. I want to fap, not struggle. Only real issue I have is the stamina system just punishing you for looking at lewd things by forcing you to go back to town then manually walk back constantly, but that could get better if more teleporting statues are added. tldr; Its an easy, fast-paced, porn filled game where the porn is hot, especially if you like kissing/oral.

EDIT; Just downloaded the 4.3 version and the issues haven't reoccurred. The sparkles behind the doors indicating a cleaning spot are now visible. Adjusted overall rating Currently the game is not enjoyable to play, it is basically a walking simulator. You're trapped in a Villa and cannot get out, there's nothing to do after you finish cleaning the accessible buildings. You can speak to the same 3 people and get the same message but not much else. I tried the in game cheats after there was nothing else to do and still couldn't leave the villa. As of 0.35 Free Gameplay 1/5 Story 1/5 Art 1/5

Onbunga 2024-05-05 ★ ★ ★ ★ ★

Great ntr game. Most characters are really hot and the fact that there will be a futa and a femboy is very cool. Best part about this game is the story and the way the sex scenes work. Looking forward to seeing how the lategame will work.

ADDolf 2024-03-29 ★ ★ ★ ★ ★

TL;DR: the game is still at a buggy early build, but has a promising story with some interesting gameplay decisions, which may or may not turn out really well. Seems more exciting than the bunnies RPG from the same dev. Spoilers ahead! So far this game seems to have way more gameplay potential than the bunnies RPG one. The artstyle remains good. From the comments I see that the open-ness of Lucille about all the ntr stuff is a controversial topic, I trust the dev has the plot and gameplay mechanics to support this, but so far it does seem like there's little tension. I presume the plot will be more focused on the protagonist dealing with it and reflecting on it. I really enjoyed the metroidvania aspect, especially the idea that it would require other NPCs to join the party and therefore lay their eyes on Lucille. However, the only NPC that is available to travel with so far (at least from what I discovered, I may have missed something) for some reason didn't take any initiative except for one cutscene that repeats each time when unlocking holy locks. I don't know if it was Lucille's affection that was too high or was it a bug of sorts. Maybe adding some gauges that would make it clearer about the state of Lucille's relationships could help with that, numbers aren't too helpful because it's unclear what they mean exactly. Maybe another option would be asking Lucille what she thinks of others or something like that. Completing the cultist-demon area became pretty repetitive at some point. There were some super nice scenes, but there were a lot of cultists who kept doing very similar things with very similar CGs, and I believe two of them were almost or completely identical, maybe it was a bug or something. In any case, the story seems pretty interesting so far and has a lot of potential. Looking forward to see future updates.
