Reviews for "Con-Quest! (Version 0.11)"
after falling in the hole and hearing from Vanilla snowman about it being less than a minute without building snowman friends I'm questioning my own sanity
always look forward to the updates
Wow, what a good game
All right, folks, long review ahead, but I'm just going to go ahead and say that this is probably one of the best games I've ever played. Not even just out of porn games. It's THAT good.
The gameplay is fluid and dynamic. With each update that added a new mechanic, it became even more fun to use. The password save/load concept is a genius idea for a game on this medium. The collectible sticker system is fun and intuitive without being cheesy or gimmicky at all. The menu panel in the CG viewer, the fight screen, the entire overworld, and probably more that I'm forgetting are all simple and easy to understand. Plus, the meta-ness of the ENTIRE arc involving the receptionist takes advantage of the elements of the game that nobody would ever expect to be taken advantage of, and it still makes PERFECT sense. And, even while it’s all so simple and easy, you still added in challenge for hardcore players with the shiny/ultra-rare cosplayers and the sticker collecting.
I've got nothing but good things to say about this game, and I haven't even left the user interface yet.
Each character is much better developed than you'd expect in a standard porn game, even the MC. They each have personalities, appearances, and even speech patterns that come through in the dialogue to set them apart. Despite this being a "bone 'em all" porn game, nothing that happens seems uncharacteristic. They're set up perfectly to exist within the world this game creates, while still establishing their existence outside of it with their conversations with each other. The main character is still their own person outside of being the guy who showed up to bang every cosplaying girl possible. Faye is still taking the whole storyline seriously while also dealing with the main character’s antics in a hilarious way. And each of the girls, the “romance”-able, the supporting partner and shopkeeper, the freakin’ receptionist, all of them have arcs that are consistent, well-written, and STILL manage to tie into this porn game.
The art is great in all aspects, from character portraits, to CG’s, to backgrounds, and beyond. Each individual one is recognizable as itself, and clearly took immense effort to look the way it does. I genuinely just have no words to praise the art outside of “It’s terrific, and you’re amazing, and I hope you never stop making incredible art.”
The writing of the story is perfect. It's well-paced, involved, and it never feels too rushed, too slow, or too forced - except when it's supposed to. It's easy to follow, especially since the character who tells you what to do always gives you instructions that are easy to understand. And, thanks to the genius of putting all the girls in the same room, not only is access to the H-scenes quick and simple, but so is moving from one place to another after getting a mission thanks to the shortcuts in that room and the one next to it.
The game does incredibly by creating a plotline that the player recognizes as important, while still not taking itself too seriously. Sure, you get plenty of sexy action and whatnot, but the overarching goal of the game is never forgotten – at least, not until the player completes the current update (which is still praise, to be clear). The story itself is set up amazingly – yeah, sure, I came here to fap to people boning in costumes, I’m not really going to question a supposed witch who cursed them and is preventing me from going from room to room. But it still is very clearly a pivotal point in the game, as ESPECIALLY clear in this update. And the original update concept of “building to each barrier?” That was a GENIUS way to separate the updates.
And, at the same time… it’s FUNNY. Like, REALLY, REALLY funny. I came here to jack off the first time I loaded up this game back when it first came out. Now, I still end up in stitches during the trial scene, or the dating sim section, or during pretty much 90% of the dialogue. You took a game that could have just been a see-it, jerk-it, leave-it, and made it something I want to come back and play during my free time. Both because I want to keep laughing at the hilarious aspects, and because I genuinely want to know where the story goes. Anyone can tell a story in a porn game, but it takes brilliant talent to tell a story in a porn game that people care about at least as much as the porn.
That’s not to degrade the “adult” portion of the game at all. The sex scenes are spaced out enough to be rewarding without being too difficult to obtain, and close together enough to be plenty without being overly gratuitous. Each character has their own unique appeal without just being faces cut and pasted onto the same model, a practice that’s all too common with some games. And they’re all much more enticing than some games’ standard “one-and-done” position options.
If I HAD to give some nitpicky complaints, I guess there’s a few minor details here and there that are a little out-of-place, like the fast-travel to the pharmacy being in the lobby instead of the same room as the one to the beach, and maybe the absence of a multiplier counter in rooms where you can get shiny books, to show how many times you’ve stacked your chances (as well as if there’s a maximum/what the maximum multiplier is). And I think it might be nice to have an indicator on the battle screen of what your opponent’s weak to, rather than having to trial-and-error it. Plus a few minor editing and coding glitches that I’m sure will get worked out before the final product is complete. And… that’s it. Gun to my head, that is all I can say negatively about this game.
This is just one of the most phenomenally made games I’ve ever played. I’ve played console games that left me feeling less than this game. I'm sure there's even more that I forgot to praise, but just know that it ALL is worth praising. You’ve done stellar work with this. I have no money to give, but if I could, I’d sell my tongue to support you on Patreon. You’re all just incredible. I’d say I hope you go on to keep doing amazing things, but I know that whatever you choose to do will be amazing. So, instead, I’ll just say: Keep being awesome, and feel proud of what you’ve done here. You deserve it.
