Finally have the time to write a review for this game after completing it offline. In summary, should you buy this game? HELL YES.

The theme of the VN features Corruption + Vanilla. Yes, how often do you see Corruption & Vanilla in one sentence? Go figure

Pros
- You get 20 - 40 hours of gameplay time (depending on whether you decided to skip read text) with 4 different possible endings (2 Priest endings + 2 Princess endings; each with good & bad ending)
- Easier combat mechanics compared to other Escu:de games even though the tutorial is not that helpful (read below for more writeup)
- Noticeable improvement in Quality of Life stuff e.g. Cleaner UI & icons, ability to favorite voiced lines (if you love ASMR), easier to read text, smoother navigation & etc (Played other Escu:de games before, HimeYoku is a direct QoL update compared to e.g. Yamizome Revenger)
- Nuns, Priest and Princess whewww

Cons
- Tutorial is a bit confusing and isn't that helpful. That's all :)

.:: Endings ::.
As mentioned above, there are 4 possible endings. Without going into too much detail, it all depends on whether you can raise enough 'Seed of Darkness' ("SoD") & whether you can reach the Mental State of Lvl. 4 within the allocated time frame/objective.

Not enough SoD (i.e. less than 3K)? You'll be locked into Priestess route. If you are able to raise >3K SoD, you have the choice of whether to enter the 'Priestess' route or 'Princess' route. Good ED & Bad ED for Priestess route depends on the quantity of SoD you can raise.

If you pass the 3k SoD threshold? Enter Princess route. Good ED & Bad ED here depends on the 'action' you decided during the 'sexy time' you'll have with the princess at the end of the game.

If you fail to reach Mental State Lvl. 4 in the princess route? Game over

.:: On the combat mechanics ::.
The in-game tutorial is confusing but the general summary of the game mechanics;
Increase the crowd gauge bar -> Harvest the crowd bar using 'Powers' -> You get SoD.
You want to increase harvest efficiency & effectiveness? Use Summoning skill before harvesting.

If you see the Crowd bar going low, use the 'Normal' ability to increase it, then rinse & repeat. That's all!
Each action will increase the orgasm bar -> when you hit 100% orgasm = 1 orgasm count
each orgasm count = Increases Metal Bar (i.e. more orgasm = mindbreak!)

The number of actions you can perform are limited by your Vitality attribute, which can be raise when you're at the preparation screen.

You can increase the efficiency/quality of your harvest by:
- Use Summoning ability which will grant you different types of buffs. Remember, Summoning ability = Buff
- Unlock more summons, increase your demon powers, increase your vitality & other attributes when you're at the preparation screen.

Good luck!
