H Scene Count- 12~
Created by Chuii Nora
Length- 2-3 hours
A pixel platformer made in some version of RPG Maker. Apparently there’s a RPG Maker engine made for making platformers. Poorly. Why? Does RPG mean something I’m not aware of? There’s no grenades or role playing here.
Story
I think Noah is some historian type, visiting some old ruins with a group of ruin researchers. Cave in happens, and Noah is saved by some guy, probably the black magician in the title. No one in this game is ever named. Not even sure if the girl you play as is Noah.
He heals here and charges her 300 trillion gold for the care, or she can go grab some magic keys for him. He black magic tentacles her to give her charm magic with some ability stealing thing. Then sends her out to do something he can obviously do alone.
Then you just go. Each boss gives some flavor, but its not until the third boss you get the rest of the plot, and by then the game has 10 minutes left. I won’t spoil it here, but the whole setup with the charm magic makes way more sense. It’s also really out of left field.
I do want to touch on how poorly the text is shown. It crawls slowly onto the screen and if you attempt to hit confirm to have the whole line print out it skips to the next line. I don’t know the last time I saw a display text thing where hitting confirm didn’t just finish the line. This makes missing the story kind of easy and actually reading it slow.
Gameplay
Puzzle platformer. You want to find a key in each stage, which serves as the end goal. Generally you find a monster of some sort to seduce, get it into it’s heart status then fire your charm at it. You get a short animation and then change types to that monsters, and that gives you some new moves. There are 5 forms. One can crawl, base can climb ladders, and so on. Each also changes the charm shot type.
So you use those forms to move obstacles and reach the end. Each stage is like 5 minutes or less long, though they also have an extra objective. Each room has a big chest, which gives 10 coins. You use coins to open the replay rooms, which is another weird design thing for last. Anyway, these chests don’t matter. Coins are scattered through each level already, and dying resets all coins in a stage while you keep the ones you’ve gotten. You only need like 120 or so to unlock each door.
So the replay room? Each world has one, and there are four. The last one has everything in it. So those doors in the other three world’s? Pointless. You don’t even need to beat the game. Based on the ending credits the game might have more then one ending, but I have no idea. I wasn’t given a reason to search for it as I had the full gallery anyway.
H and Other stuff
Very short animations with some odd fetishes. Boar, bee, plant, dildo turtle, and some weirder ones. Noah has sex to get powers and the only things in stages are animals and robots. Do the math. At least the different forms show up in the porn.
Verdict
Meh. The scenes really aren’t for me, and the platforming is janky. It works, it just doesn’t feel good. It’s short though, so at least it doesn’t drag on. Nothing to really compliment other then the heroines art for her different forms.
Save for Noah and Black Magician
Contains- Ending 1 is ready to go and the final replay gallery is unlocked. No idea if there’s more, the game doesn’t really hint at it other then numbering the ending and I didn’t care.
