I think that if you were to remove the H scenes and upgrade the gameplay this would be a huge hit in the western market, which has a huge thirst for dark settings. I suggest for those who like me are spoiled by good game design. It is from the brutal age where game design was like a mystery cult and the brutal game-over-at-every-corner style means you will either be save-scumming, restarting, or cheating. The gameplay is dated and the years have not been kind to it. Sengoku Rance is similar to this but is less dark. Kichikuou Rance is sort of a dark bad-end game as far as Rance games go, so there is more rape and less love. In general I find the references to rape more balanced than not, in no small part because it is refreshing to see a part of the real world addressed. There are some fantasy elements such as when Rance turns the tide of a war by seducing the enemy leader, but that is the sort of epic thing an epic hero does: sex is his greatest weapon. In fact the question I ask myself is why do other games pretend that doesn’t happen. Most of it is completely believable, for example the pillaging and raping of a city that falls to conquerors. Although some people criticize it because of all of the rape I don’t see the issue. There is a lot of rape and also a lot of sex. Real consequences, intrigue, murder, love, and romance 40+ employable characters with story arcs, 40+ love interests, and many more developed charactersĢ. The scope of the game drowns out contemporary works. The juxtaposition between heartwarming love and the terror of war really draws you in. Playing this after Sengoku Rance and Rance VI. If you are able to read Japanese, I highly recommend checking this game out. Perhaps one day, we might be able to see this classic too in English, available to be enjoyed by all who would spend the time to check it out.Īlicesoft has released this game as freeware, which is actually a really generous move, sort of like if Blizzard decided to release Starcraft for free.

The Rance series has gained a small amount of popularity in the English-speaking region due to the fantranslation of Sengoku Rance, another fantastic game and interest has been raised on the other parts of the series. The breakout song from this game is probably its opening, “Rough Edge”, which has had several remixes and covers done for it. Everything from the slow, dread-building “Ontlogy” of the Demon Army, the Arabic-influenced “Magical City” of Zeth, and the overly macho “Force” of Leazas Kingdom makes the game a joy to listen to. The music in this game is surprisingly varied. The true ending to the game is probably one of my favourites in videogames. Even with a protagonist who’s sort of an asshole and generally does things out of his own self-interest, it’s possible to end up making the world a better place to live in. Breaking these commandments results in a. The world of Eve is governed by commandments which are enforced by the world. Yet in the end, the game does have an optimistic tint to it. It is also notable for being drawn by Nan Yaegashi, the character designer of Senran Kagura.It was translated by Mangagamer for a 2018 release, and was released on Steam in October that same year.
