H Scene Count- ~30

Created by kamichichi, translated by Emerald_Galdiator

Length- 15-20 hours

The first kamichichi title, and the last one I’ve played of the first three. This one tries to be FF5 with some morality mechanics thrown in, making it the most interesting game of the three.

Story

Amnesia man wakes up in a cave. He looks around and finds a crystal that tells him he will save the world. Leaving the cave you get an option to save a girl from goblins or let them rape her. It’s that kind of game.

Jumping forward, you save a kingdom with the help of a knight, a village girl, and the Queen of the Elves, all with huge breasts. Soon after the crystal teleports the party to it and shatters, giving them shards, the job system, and making them the heroes of crystals. That was the crystal of desire. There is sea, fire, sky, darkness and light. Desire does not fit, but the story uses it a bunch as people just randomly turn evil cause there desires are no longer in control.

So you go around finding the crystals, getting jobs and meeting a few more girls. Each NPC girl has a single scene. Some are evil only, some are good only. Then you have the full game harem, which for some NPC’s is the only time the hero sleeps with them. Note, you can get endings for any of the main three girls, the harem ending is just the best one. It makes the most sense, and the end game is more rewarding with harem as the amount of new girls and scenes just falls of completely around the 60% point if you don’t do harem.

So yeah, a very different take on FF5’s story. Still has crystals being destroyed and four heroes of light. Some other small things to.

Gameplay

So just like FF5, the core of the game is standard RPG but with a class system. There’s some differences, like way less classes, but the core is the same. Beat up enemies for job points, and at certain job levels you gain abilities and special passives other classes can equip. Unlike FF5, you don’t get a job slot and one other ability slot, here you get four categories with skills costing points to quip. The top group is for passives, the second is for equipment options, the third is for skillsets from other classes, and the last group is the most unique. Called Risk, it’s a bunch of penalties to get more points to equip things in other slots. It sounds like an interesting reward/penalty system, but the negatives are way to great. Double damage for maybe an extra passive? 30% less xp for another equipment option, maybe? They just aren’t worth it. Cool idea though.

Outside of that, it is very FF5. Few sidequests, mainly focusing on summons and some hidden spells. Each class has a unique outfit for each character(probably the coolest thing the game does, few h rpgs do this).Even the classes are mainly the core set from 5, except for some reason Summoner is mixed with Gunslinger, probably because summons are rare and its possible to skip all of them very easily.

Only other thing to note for the gameplay is the dating sim stuff. Some options during the story raise a girl’s affection. After finishing a town you get nan event where you can see a short scene with a girl and get some affection, and the inn h scenes get some affection. I think the goal for harem is 70 or 80 for each girl by the 60-70% mark of the game. Might be lower, I didn’t really try to do harem since that’s what everyone goes for. I went for elf, and man did I regret that. The game really makes it obvious that harem it the right/correct option.

So the reason it took so long for me to play this? I tried when it came out, and reached the third real boss. At this point I hadn’t figured out how to multi target spells so the bosses AOE’s killed me. After three or four tries I gave up. Almost gave up this time to, until I reread the directions for the tenth time and finally actually read them. In Final Fantasy, you multi target by slecting the spell and moving to the farthest enemy and moving again or hitting a shoulder button. In this you press D before you select the spell. The before was the problem. This also makes mutli target separate spells, which means every time you cast it, the game resets your spell list so the attack memory function is pointless.

H and Other stuff

Huge tits. Of course, that goes without saying. So each of the NPCs get a single scene, some evil, some good. Evil is mostly you don’t help them, they get raped and you watch/jump in(maybe). Good is you help them, they jump you later. The main heroines get 5 scenes each(except Rena who gets a bonus scene). Two of them sleeping where the hero gropes them, and the second scene is titfuck while they sleep. Then you have the lose scenes at a point in the game. Then the romance scene and another romance scene. The harem stuff is either one with just with the main girls or one with the entire NPC cast and main girls.

So kinda like Apostle, there’s a couple of extra girls. You’ll only get about three scenes out of them if you stick to a single alignment. The writing’s around the same as Apostle, though the translation itself is very… bland or weird at times. Overall I’d say the h is the worst of the three games do to resolution, art style(the girls just plain look better in the other games), and the most rape of the three kamichichi titles. Basically they only improved.

Verdict

Apostle is my favorite game from kamichichi. This one just gets tiring. Near the end you just stop getting h scenes and new classes, so it’s just big dungeons for long stretches. Which wasn’t very fun. The classes are also kinda boring, not really learning a lot of actual cool abilities. Mostly stat ups and maybe one or two new skills. It also just doesn’t feel like there’s enough of them.

The h is fine, the story is okay if a bit standard. Gameplay is fine ATB until it gets stale near the end as bosses start just getting way to strong and taking to long to kill. Not horrible, but I would tell someone to play Apostle or Island Saga before this, easily.

The biggest issue I had was that Monster GIrl Quest Paradox is just better for a job based RPG in every way. Other then the standout fetish of the two games, MGQ has more jobs, more customization, side content(which games with job stuff need so that I actually level more jobs), and a better story. Only thing Harem Fantasy really does better is the different outfits for classes, and those aren’t used in h scenes so they just give some visual flair and nothing else.

Save for Harem Fantasy~ Good or Evil Will Save the World~

Contains- All scenes unlocked. Save is to the end dungeon, near the start. Beating it gets you the elf’s ending.
