The verdict
A cheap, simple RPG Maker "lose to unlock" eroge with a voiced dark elf heroine and multiple endings. Skip it if you want real gameplay, a readable translation or uncensored scenes.
Great for
Eroge fans who like old-school RPG Maker games, fetish content and multiple endings, and don't mind patching.
Main risk
Steam version is censored, needs an outside patch, and has a terrible translation with trivially easy combat.
What players love
Multiple endings and branching routes

Combat too easy, hard to lose to unlock scenes
