Echoes of Enigma

This one just makes no sense. At least there are a couple of sober reviews, because going by those glowing FIVE stars review, you expect this to be one heck of an experience. And probably the best "html" VN ever. Alas, it is not the best. Story is...well I guess there's a story, sort of. Is it captivating? lol Yes one might say "it's a porn game, story is not important". Well let me put it this way, do you want a story, or porn? There's a few popular websites you should visit if you just want porn. With less grind and busywork just to get a 3 second looping 'video/gif" Within the first 2-3 IN-game days, I had already started to lose faith in this VN. First evening (iirc) I peeked into "my" parents bedroom, got to witness mommy getting banged by daddy. Yay, an incest game where your first introduction to lewd content is watching your mom be f-cked by someone else. Off to a great start right? A bit of story happens, daddy isn't around anymore. Around day 3 or so in-game, I have already been intimate with the mother(footjob) Buildup what's that? A couple of days later, I have had actual sex with her. Like what the actual fudge? Day 1, watch mommy get banged by daddy. Day 3 or so, you're getting a footjob from the mother. Every day after that it gets more and more intimate, and maybe 2-3 days later, if even that long, you are literally banging the mom. In different positions. Even in the kitchen. Like where's the buildup? Where's the logic? Realism? Competent writing? Everything is just happening for no reason. Basically every other woman/girl you run into, you bang real quick after your *first ever meeting*. You restore an old car. Once that's done, you can bring either your mom or your sister on a ride. Bringing mommy always result in one of several sex scenes, be it actual sex, or BJ, etc. What about the sister though? Well she's been your typical bitchy sister, just to five minutes later seem really caring. For me, the only random encounter with the sister I had (that isn't tied to the 'story') is I peeked at her in the bathroom. Left (not by player choice btw). So, again, the car. Bring mommy on a ride, results in another type of ride, if u know what I mean, wink wink.. So, bring sister on a ride then, have barely interacted with her, no particular affections has ever been shown. Bring her on the ride in the car, leads to the usual little video/gif playing, of 'you' banging her in different positions. Just like that. Depending on how quickly you can restore the car, you will within maybe a week (in-game) be banging both mom and sis. A reminder, it's just a few days ago your dad/mom's 'man' disappeared. The love between mom and dad must've been dead for a very long time, so that the mom can bang the son within a couple of days after her husband(dunno if they were actually married, who cares) disappeared. There are games that takes forever, the so called blueball simulators. Then there are games that throws sex at you within just a couple of updates, but in some of those cases, it makes at least a little sense. THIS f-cking trainwreck of a VN though, nothing makes sense. Sure the player decides now that dad is gone he needs to step up and be the man of the house. Again, this is within just hours or a couple of days after his dad just 'went away'. My next complaints is mostly the same as I have for all of these "html with real porn" VNs. And that is consistency. This game is even worse. But it's impossible to even TRY to be immersed, when you have a completely different woman in the scene suddenly. Like, ok, let's bang female 1, she's a brunette. Next scene within the same sex event, she's blonde? Talk to her in the morning, she looks this way. Talk in the evening and she's a completely different actress. On TOP of this, there's been a couple of times where there's even a different SKINCOLOR of the same f-king character. Can't remember who it was exactly, but she was always white, but in this scene she was suddenly, well not-white. HOW can anyone find this fun, intriguing, immersive, exciting or even worth their time? This is the problem with most of these types of HTML games. VERY few"devs" manages to have a consistency with the actresses. But come on, you can't have one scene where you bang a woman, and half a minute later, she looks completely different. And as I said, in a couple of examples, not only different size, haircolor, but also different effing skin color lol. There's a bit of grind too. I wouldn't say it's the worst though. So at least something this game isn't the Worst in. But there is. Your typical, raise this stat otherwise you cant proceed with whatever. First instance of this for me, was trying to get into the garage. The same garage that belongs to the house and family, but it's apparently locked by dad, who now is who-knows-where, and the player has to lockpick the door. But wait, naah, dont rush, now you gotta take an online course in lockpicking, and increase your skill to 10. In other words, 10 'classes'. Sure could've been worse, some games would most likely put it at 50 or 100 even. But you can not just spam the button to train/study, because you have a stamina system, AND you have to sleep. So a bunch of clicks just to leave the computer and sleep. Then get up and repeat. Yay lockpicking is now lvl 10, time to open the garage. Theres more of this btw, this was just one example. You need your charisma to be 20 for one or a couple of 'events'. And your mechanic skill needs to be pretty high too, to finish restoring the car. Oh and lastly the classic, "WiP" in many areas you try to visit. If this game doesnt get abandoned, and several updates down the road, I'm sure some of these 'issues' will have been fixed. At least I hope the plenty of locations that are "WiP" will stop being WiP eventually. But then again, who cares if you can or cannot visit the trainstation, airport, etc, when nothing in the game is worth the time. But I gave this one a fair and honest chance. Even though it started in a bad way right out the gate. Witness mom and dad banging (avoidable I THINK), and just a couple of days later, during yoga, you start rubbing your dick against mother's ass, then a day or so later a footjob, and 1-2 days later, you literally put your dick inside her pussy. It's not even been a week. There's one other example I wish I could give, but that would potentially spoil a "twist". I'll put it in spoilers, so you can decide yourself if you wanna know about it before you sadly experience it yourself in the game (but dont bother playing, trust me) SPOILERS incoming: Storywise you're trying to find your uncle. Meanwhile during this search, you meet a girl, who you f-ck 2 minutes after meeting. You can then return to this location and sometimes she's there and you can bang her. Rinse and repeat if you want. Eventually you find your Uncle. You visit him in his home. While talking to your uncle, someone enters the house yelling 'im home dad' so obviously Uncle's daughter (and you know what an uncle's daughter is to you right? hint: cousin) Who do you think it is that pops up? Of course the girl we've been banging. We've been banging our cousin without knowing we were related. MY personal question is, what is the point with this"Twist" ? I mean sure it might make it hard to bang her for awhile. But you as the player, the MC, what are you supposed to think? You can't really think "omg, I f-cked my cousin, I'm so disgusted". Since you've at this point banged both your mom and sister several times, so what if you banged your cousin? That's far from the worst thing here lol I've spent way too much time and words in this review, for what it deserves. This is pure garbage. And I really mean it, if you dont care about story, or buildups, and just want some quick sex, including 'forbidden' sex. Just go watch porn on a pornsite. There you at least dont have to grind and rely on chance. There's ZERO buildup here. Again, remember, you can bang the mom within 3-4 days already. And even though it seems impossible, but the whole 'banging the sis' comes even more out of the blue. Perhaps the 'dev' will add more buildup in future updates. Maybe this was just a 'tactic' to get people hooked, that we got to nail the family almost right away. But for me, the damage is done. Can't be bothered with this trash, and you really shouldn't waste your time on this either. EVEN if you dont mind these html/real porn games where *every* character suddenly looks like a different person from one scene to the next(including the MC), this is just so much worse than those other html/real porn garbage. This is garbage, rejected by garbage, that's how incredibly bad this one is. Maybe, after a bunch of updates, I might give this one another go. And I will then revise my review if it's suddenly NOT a 1-star trash. A v o i d

Good: - You can bang people Bad: - You can bang people... quickly? Ugly: - The story, or lack thereof, has no premise on what you can do with the girls. - You can literally just spam wash dishes and eat to get relationship quickly. - There's basically no lead up. It's essentially "Ok, yea, lets bang" with a bunch of random gifs that don't even try to keep the characters look (mixed races, hair colors, bust size, etc), which essentially breaks immersion.

This game is complitly broken ! apart for click on button with no images or ensuaring to visual questions where there is no image, it not a game. The guy helped cleanning dish ones and barrely speaked to his M.O.M then he F.O.K.E.D her evry breakfst

A decent amount of content in v0.2. I'm loving the main story so far, characters are interesting - receptionist is my favorite lol! It would be nice if every job you will have in future comes with mini games (just an idea). imo going well so far, can't wait for future updates!

Congratulations on the game, it's very good and exciting, it has a great future if updated. The story that leads the characters to sex is a bit cliché; I believe that if it becomes a little more complex and complete, the game would be even better.

It's still very early, the great majority of the locations are WIP. There's 2 main issues. 1. The lewd scenes have no story. You just "talk to X person" enough times to gain enough reputation points and then you can click lewd scenes No rhyme or reason, just "hey, sis how you doing" 10 times and then she'll give you a BJ at breakfast. 2. No indication where characters are. You need to click into each room to find out who is where. Labels which room each character is in is very simple to add and an easy way to improve the gameplay. I pretty much just delete any HTML game that doesn't have that.
