Welcome to City of Secrets! An RPG Eroge centered around Emma, a young girl thrust into dangerous situations as forces around her try to slowly corrupt her. The game currently features various possession, corruption, and transformation themes.
Attending class, exploring the city, and interacting with characters are just a few of the many things you will do in this game.
The main gameplay revolves around the domains that appear. Each domain opening up and trapping people within, forcing Emma to fight through various enemies and lewd traps to get the soul fragments she's searching for.
Outside of the dungeons you race against time as Aurora attempts to corrupt you, turning you into a masochistic slave whose only desire is to serve her.
Other characters also will interact with Emma differently, such as Victoria, an exhibitionist ghost who takes a liking to Emma's body.
Some specific gameplay elements include:
Pixel Animations and CGS – Carefully drawn scenes revolving around pixel animations and CG's. Map sprites also have been reworked to increase their quality as well!
Day/Night System – Events and gameplay revolving around specific times. Go to College in the Morning, explore the City at night!
Weather System – Events revolving around weather. Is it sunny, rainy, or stormy? Who knows what will happen when the weather changes...
Visual Novel Character Art – Beautiful character art for every character displaying a range of emotions for each scene!
Corruption Mechanic – As you move through the story various forces will work to corrupt Emma's reputation and personality. Will she be able to resist their influence?

Really great start! The game is early on but barely feels like it, the artistic vision is clearly there and there's a lot of setup for future events. The art is great, the sprites are geat, and the environments are beautiful. Good audio assets too. Overall a really excellent start to a project I plan to follow closely.
Right now my only complaint is the combat, which is a bit tedious and by-the-numbers. In the first dungeon there are a lot of enemies to fight, and because the only magic attack we get is very limited use, fighting is basically just mashing the attack button endlessly and healing up every now and then. There are seemingly ways to grind levels outside of the dungeon to make this easier, but the problem here is that to access any of the lewd scenes in the dungeon, you have to deliberately fail Quick Time Events. That means that since I as a player want to get my lewds, the combat doesn't actually get me any closer to them and basically just takes up time betweem the lewds, and boosting my stats elsewhere doesn't feel appealing because it's basically spending time in one place to save time in another.
I think combat needs a re-work that could incorporate more lewd elements to it, possibly as part of the attacks to make it actually interesting, or otherwise just be scaled down to go a lot quicker, possibly by just lowering enemy health across the board. I like having it in there, but right now it's way too much of a distraction from the lewds since those exist under the completely independent QTE system. But once that gets tweaked a bit, I think this game has the potential to be an all-time great. I can't wait for future updates!
Fantastic art style, great at conveying what it means to.
Good writing, a bit weak in areas but it more than makes up for it in its attention to detail.
RPG Battle Mechanics are very simple and bland. Nothing exciting or special about combat, it exists to fill time.
Overall tone and quality are very high. The dev knows what they're interested in and presents scenarios that are fun to experience. It's kind of like playing an Anamaxis game though, where if you're into the squicks and fetishes you're going to love the game. If you're not into possession or mind control though, you're probably not going to enjoy it though.
I'd rate this a solid 10/10. This rating is overly generous, but if you're into these fetishes, then you'll understand how well deserved it is if you try it.
