100%'d it. Genuinely pretty fun. It's a good satire of goofy shoujo romance tropes, but the romance options are elder gods. This one has three and the horror aspect is actually done quite well. But it's still a lot of fun

The game is absolutely hilarious. The wedding and the final LUST endings cracked me up. A few things that bothered me were just UI flaws (incantations right on "close book" button, lines that skip randomly, no backlog) and Estir's monotone rushed recitations.

I'll be real, it's just a vague gooner-game for monster-lovers and those wizened to the works of H.P. Lovecraft - Blessed be thee - who wanna shag female versions of those gods depicted. I want to appreciate this game, though it frankly contributed to my depression a few years back when I bought and played it. I admit, I don't appreciate media that tries to make me idolize &/or fantasize. I think it negatively…
