Advantages:

Two Babes Go To War

I found the premise of A Struggle with Sin very interesting. The game has a medieval and fantasy setting and there are two princes who are at war in a massive civil war over who will be the one to rule the kingdom. You start out as a fairly insignificant person, but soon you find yourself thrust into the middle of this and you must decide what kind of person you will be.

There is a great deal of choice in this game and no matter if you decide to be good or bad, you get the impression that the choices you are making in the game do actually matter. This is something many lewd RPGs (and RPGs in general) struggle with.

Taking On The Right Quest

A Struggle with Sin is a full-on RPG kind of game. You will need to go to many different locations in the land and talk to people, making sure you are saying the right thing in order to move the story along. This aspect of the game is good as I liked the story, I also liked how you could change the names of all the characters if you wanted.

You have a lot of items to find that will help you on your way and I liked how you had a decent selection of weapons. Combat in the game is pretty straightforward, but you do have to think about what you are doing or the AI will just run over you, I do like this and it took me a little while to truly get to grips with what I was doing.

A Bit More Refined Than The Rest

The art style that has been chosen for A Struggle with Sin is very interesting. How many lewd RPGs that were made with RPG Maker have you played where the characters are all done in a pixel-art kind of style? I hand on heart have lost count at this point. In this game, the characters all have a much more realistic look to them. The whole game plays things very straight in terms of the visuals and this is something I do like.

Developer Notes:

About breaking saves in 0.3.9.5: As many of you probably knew there have been constant game breaking bugs in the game. I knew for a while how to fix them but I also new that if I would do that it would also break save files (Needed to replace some of the plugins). This wasn't an easy choice for me but leaving a game breaking bug in the game didn't feel good. So I talked about this with my patrons and got to the conclusion that it had to be fixed better now than later. The best time to do something like that is always with a rework since this gives more reason to replay old scenes. In this update I reworked a lot of Tia's content, not all but as much as I managed within the given time. The critical damage bug is now fixed aswell, together with a lot of other stuff. This was a one time thing, I expect that it won't be necessary to break saves again in the future.

Conclusion:

A Struggle With Sin unfolds a narrative where morality is a shifting landscape, and survival often demands compromise. The choices you make will not only shape your destiny but also define the fate of the fantasy world caught in the clutches of conflict. As you delve into the murky depths of this corrupt society, be prepared for a narrative that doesn't shy away from mature themes and explicit content. The game invites you to explore the dichotomy of self-preservation and moral integrity, providing a riveting experience that goes beyond the conventional boundaries of fantasy storytelling. Are you ready to carve your path through the maelstrom, navigating a world where sin and struggle entwine in an intricate dance? The fate of the realm awaits your decision.
