Unlike others in the comments, I've never played the older more linear version of the game, so I only have the current iteration to go on. That said, I like it! It isn't perfect, and there are some writing and pacing issues which could be polished, but overall it's a pretty good game with a lot of content if you're willing to be patient.

Positives:

• The art and character designs are very well done; despite the fact that you can't transform any of the NPCs, their models are still exaggerated enough (i.e. in the dick department) that they feel fantastical and tf-y
• It's set in a developed world with its own rules and societal norms, which I always enjoy
• There's a large variety of content, from growth to BDSM to vore (if you're into that)

Neutral:

• It is very firmly a furry game, so if you aren't into that then it isn't for you
• The game as-is is somewhat bare in terms of plot — it's clear that it's going somewhere, but it hasn't reached that place yet, so other than a couple plot threads there isn't much of a sense of stakes. I'm fine with this since there's enough plot and enough side stories to have things to do, but it's worth mentioning

Critiques:

• There are typos and just oddly or awkwardly worded passages here and there — in my opinion they're not enough to ruin the experience, but they are noticable
• The actual tf content is sooomewhat limited. There are easy ways to access vore and other tf-adjacent content, but species tf and growth are both pretty expensive and hard to unlock in-game without a lot of grinding
• Speaking of grinding, things get really repetitive. I like the NPCs, but if you start exploring the streets looking for tf items you'll soon get very, VERY tired of seeing the same handful of long randomized encounters play over and over again. I don't dislike the scenes themselves, but a lot of them lose their impact if you keep reading them over and over again
• Pacing is a bit of an issue.

Elaborating on that last point:

This game has a lot of exposition, both about the world and about its characters, and the way it delivers this exposition can be kind of grueling in my opinion. The game begins with a lot of very long, very detailed dialogue, and some of the NPCs are prone to ramble and say purposefully confusing things. It makes the plotline hard to follow, world building details hard to remember, and slows down the experience a lot early on.

That type of storytelling isn't bad, but it feels a bit claustrophobic when it all happens at once. If I were making suggestions, I'd say try to spread out those early dialogue scenes so the player unlocks bits and pieces over their first week or so. Some confusion is fine! It's just that, especially for a game which some people are playing while or in order to get horny, it's asking a lot of them to read that much text uninterupted.

Overall, I do recommend this game to anyone who likes furry characters and at least one of the other kinks/tfs involved.

Rating: 6.5/10

Loved the old version of the game. Hoping to see the newer versions progress. No transformations yet that I have seen for the player, but the writing is nice. This really has great potential.

(keep in mind that, as of this review, I haven't tried the RPG maker version.)

A very strange situation, where a linear, straight-forward CYOA was completely remade into a much more open-ended game, leaving only the world-building and most major characters the same. Leads to a totally different feeling; you felt like a stranger, struggling to navigate and understand an unusual world filled with people who wish to control you in the original, while in this you feel more like an explorer actively seeking out opportunities, only on occasion being (un)lucky enough to stumble across someone wishing to dominate you in one way or another. Neither tone's bad, but it's a stark difference.

The original version had much, much rougher writing (and none of the gorgeous art this version has) but felt a lot more polished in its gameplay and a lot more "complete". Plus at this point, I've played enough RPGs on this site that I'm kinda sick of the whole "repeatedly press explore until the game decides to be kind enough to you to give you an actually interesting event" thing these games do. Still, what's here shows promise, and I'm keeping my eye on it.

This game appears to be highly incomplete, at present. Example: No idea how to actually purchase stuff, in most cases, cuz clicking on the "Buy" link generally doesn't do anything.

As well, the inventory system is… odd. No indication of how many of each item I have. After I finally unlock Zorro's ability to buy stuff off of me, I find that I can sell him some items a possibly-infinite number of times. Not real sure what's going on with that.

In its current state, the game is alpha-quality, IMAO. THe developer could use some Quality Assurance people before they decide to release the "real" edition.
