Had a go for an hour and change today and first impression is that, contrary to the description, it IS quite grindy.
The text is well written, the art is very appealing, there’s a lot to like but it felt hard to find my footing at the start of the game.
I explored the mansion, read all the things then got to exploring the world. Since I picked Charm as my starting stat (felt like a tough choice, but adequate since the ability to recruit looked like a central concern) I gravitated a lot towards working in town. getting 30-45 gold even on the “good jobs/successful skill checks” doesn’t leave a lot of time to explore the game itself, when you burn through 20 a day.
But that also got less relevant when I couldn’t really do anything outside due to stats. 1+1 doesn’t really seem to enable you to pass any tests, so first order of business would be to bulk myself up but, +1 stat requiring 6 servants felt really harsh when my impression from the hypnotist just walking all over my 3+1 charm was that I’d need at least 5 in any stat I wanted to have any chance of being useful. That’s 6 servants for Charm and 24 for each other stat and servants aren’t that easy to come by outside of the detective quest. Having to rely on triggering the right event and, also, maybe succeeding a check.
So yeah, not sure if I ended up missing something, selecting “hard mode” by accident or whatever but the game felt like it would demand A LOT of time to allow me to settle.
Also: Consider adding some “mash skip” protection when the player is then presented with an option. I selected things by accident quite a few times. None of them were too much of an issue, but it’s a bit annoying
Yeah from my experience it does seem as if Charm is truly the hard mode equivalent in the game. I tend to find it extremely easy to beat the game in around thirty minutes with just starting with speed then using the first magic bottle in wisdom. Overall though, if you beat it with charm, you've truly beaten the game.
This is a great game! I loved it so much, but If there's more NSFW scene and further interaction with those hero slave, it'd be the best game I've ever played. But still, It is an undeniable great work of yours. <3
It would be cool if there was a ghost in this game that possessed you, and is kinda like Julian (He's my favorite cause he has my name). Or is that already a thing? Still that would be cool.
Version 1.1.11, dungeons still broken for me. Is literally no one else having this problem? Is it becomes I'm still on Windows 10? Something need to be done before starting?
Hey, uh, would anyone appriciate me getting the latest patreon release and setting a link up for it? Citrine SAID they were going to work on it on the 29th of april, but... uh, nothing...
Hi. In the ruins, everytime I try to go on expeditions, I will encounter a bug. The game will stop working. Help, how to resolve this? I'm using the latest version
Been following this game for a while now, fucking love it. Just had one question, would you perhaps be interested in teaming up, and allowing me to make an entire original soundtrack for the game? Last time I played it felt kind of quiet, and I really just wanna work on this, don't even care if I don't get paid, that's how much I love it! If you're interested, you can contact me via twitter or discord. Winkwing#2293
Fantastic game! Though, I'm here to report a glitch I've encountered in the most recent build (and am also leaving it here as a guide for those who want to cheat.) Also, SPOILERS AHEAD:
So, I figured out a way to get Infinite Witch Bottles. When you start the game, there's a room called the Pantry which can be accessed/unlocked by buying some Lockpicks. Opening it up, it's a room that has one herb to brew a potion with or some such. This is step 1: Open the Pantry.
Step 2 is a lot more difficult and time consuming: you need to gather up all four heroes and break them. Make them all your slaves and start the party. Go back up to bed and go to sleep, and you'll be given a Witch Bottle and some Good Wine. After that though, you wake up in the middle of the night and are supposed to go into the yard. But...
Step 3: Don't go out into the yard where the shed normally is. Instead, enter the Pantry. It will go from dark to light. Exit the Pantry and you'll find most things have returned to normal-- only, the night music is still playing. Go back upstairs and go to bed. When you do, you'll have the same sequence of events as last night, giving you another Witch Bottle and some more wine.
Step 4 is the most simple: Repeat it. You can do this as many times as you want and get limitless Witch Bottles to make all of your stats go well beyond... well, any number, really.
And that's really it. Happy travels, Citrines!
EDIT: Should also note that, yes, you have infinite Witch Bottles, you do not have infinite Servants. Still gotta find a way to make obtaining them easier, expediting the process of making your stats even more godlike than the Cleric would like you to believe.
I understand it's normal for you to go to bed after that whole party scene and wake up in the middle of the night, but what's not normal is walking into the pantry and it's suddenly daytime, skipping the entire cutscene in the yard and continuing the game like you're supposed to.
Bit of a necropost on my part, but if you instead initiate an obedience lesson from the classroom, everyone is stuck in their "party" placements, the music resets, and you can restart the day. This also lets you save the state of the party, when the menu is normally disabled.
Awesome game! Since it's built in RPGmaker 2003, I got this running on my Nintendo 3DS via EasyRPG/Easy3DS, and although the music lags sometimes and the 3DS crashes on exit, it's surprisingly playable.
Needless to say, publishing builds of this game on 3DS is hard to justify, but the other commenters who want this game on mobile should know about the Android build of EasyRPG. (The iOS version is practically nonexistent though; I'd be surprised if anyone can get the game running on iOS.)

I hope you feel safer soon.
does anyone knows how to get more witch bottles? :,)
Seems Version 1.1.2 isn't available to download on the Itch app. Unless I'm blanking out and forgot something.
how do i open full screen without f4?
I really want to see more of the bat scene and maybe finally enslave them or something. All I can do is wait and see
ah. Found a bug.

ohlol XD
Citrine permanent kitsune transformation thooooo? I'd LOVE to get to be a handsome ass kitsune
Oo something i didn't realize i needed
This is a great game! I loved it so much, but If there's more NSFW scene and further interaction with those hero slave, it'd be the best game I've ever played. But still, It is an undeniable great work of yours. <3
is there any chance you will make this compatible with mac?
Is there any, or will there be any, means for repeating/replaying hunt sequences?
Im kinda stuck at the Kitsune manor. How do I make them want to be ruled by me? I've been trying for a couple days and I'm not getting anywhere...
you can’t yet. That’s for the next public update. You can get it now on patron.
Oh, thanks! :)
is outt, now you need to make them like you then you can get the leader
I honestly thought there's a devlog posted for v1.1.1 , but I just notice there's none ._.
Oh well
It would be cool if there was a ghost in this game that possessed you, and is kinda like Julian (He's my favorite cause he has my name). Or is that already a thing? Still that would be cool.
Could someone help me? I can't install the game. Everytime I try to, it says a "LZH Archive" was not found. Help
How do we access the new Kano content? do we have to capture the full set of heroes first?
Just explore the woods until you find the Kitsune event. Then afterwards you'll be able to choose to explore the Kitsune mansion.
Is it in Foraging or Deepwood?
Deepwood seems to be what worked for me, I spent a few days in foraging but I got it instantly with Deepwood.
So is there any content for the ruins bat? is it possible to be enslaved by him or enslave him? if so How?
Neither, just short scenes for losing or winning.
that would be so kwel
do you plan on adding osx support?
If you get the party and the ending with the witch of the woods scene, is that the end of the current build or is there more stuff to do?
Just the new Kitsune manor content.
How do I get the new kitsune content?
Wonderful game, really enjoying it so far. I have one question though, and I may have just missed something, but what are the hero's crests for?
For selling and trading. Maybe for some recipes but I can't remember now.
Dammit, Kano... I thought we could be FRIENDS. Cats, foxes... aren't we both similar cloth? Why did you have to do what you did...
please, next update. Add the alcohol still. I need to go for the bottle to hide the tears.
i thought we could be allies
ye were a fool to believe there was ever a shot at peace, and a bigger one not to start the war.
Version 1.1.11, dungeons still broken for me. Is literally no one else having this problem? Is it becomes I'm still on Windows 10? Something need to be done before starting?
Hey, uh, would anyone appriciate me getting the latest patreon release and setting a link up for it? Citrine SAID they were going to work on it on the 29th of april, but... uh, nothing...
Citrine has been in a complicated situation lately, so that's probably why he hasn't been able to meet the deadline
Though I'm sure he'll release the next update soon!
Hi, are there other dungeons to unlock? i only got the slime and the one where you capture the rabbit
when is the new version coming outt 😭
Hi. In the ruins, everytime I try to go on expeditions, I will encounter a bug. The game will stop working. Help, how to resolve this? I'm using the latest version
try maybe getting the game again and see if it works
Still did not work huhu.
Would love for there to be a way to interact with text using the mouse because with games like these I like to link my phone and computer together.
i wo der if a yonrs managed to get this working on mobile through something like JOIPLAY or something
You can play this mobile just use eazyrpg
(can you tell I typed that last post at 3am lol)
is there a trick I'm missing with that? it refuses to recognize the game, whether it's in a zipped folder or not.
Been following this game for a while now, fucking love it.

step 1 and 2 aren't part of the glitch that's just how you play the game
