Okay, I've played through what I think is all of the trial version. I've encountered every enemy, beaten the boss, obtained materials to upgrade the tower and seen the resulting cutscene with the mysterious blonde succubus (who I presume to be a future villain).
Some tips for anyone who's having trouble:
Some tips for anyone who's having trouble:
- You get two free auto-revives per battle, which trigger when your Vigor (HP equivalent) reaches 0. The first restores 50% of your max Vigor, the second restores 33%.
- As in Lust Grimm, Lust is an important factor. It goes up for several reasons, mostly related to combat. Higher Lust means higher damage and, above a certain threshold (somewhere above 50% I think), enemies use special and powerful attacks. You can decrease Lust by being defeated (though this has its own consequences) or by using a Calming Nut. Calming Nuts can be obtained by giving 3 of another kind of nut to an NPC in the area northwest of the town. I recommend carrying a few through a dungeon and using them regularly to keep your Lust below 50% at the very least. If you're about to face a boss, you'll want it even lower.
- Unlike in LG, Vigor isn't restored by talking to a fairy or by levelling up. You can restore it by: using various items; letting yourself die and auto-revive (but this can't bring you to full on its own) or by being defeated (again, has consequences).
- If you lose a battle (i.e. get brought to 0 Vigor after both your auto-revives are used up), you'll get the option of seeing the H-scene, then be teleported back to the bed in Fess' house in the starting town, with Vigor fully restored and Lust reduced to 0%. However, the Breast Addiction status ailment persists through loss if it was inflicted (this status can only be removed by an NPC in the Succubus Village). Additionally, if you encounter that enemy again they get a buff and you may be hit by a debuff randomly mid-battle, making fights against that enemy more difficult. To remove this, you need to talk to the Sister Succubus NPC in a small house in the starting village (this uses up a rosary item). Finally, each loss causes your Dependence? value to rise. This doesn't seem to have any consequences in the trial, but note that in the previous game Dependence reaching 100 caused your Level to be reset to 1.
- There are crystals that can be used to warp from near the entrance to the starting village to other areas and vice versa (currently 3 in the trial). One is found outside the cave dungeon, one just before the Sheep Sisters boss and one near the entrance to the human village and Succubus Village. When you find one of these crystals for the first time, it creates a corresponding crystal at the starting area, allowing you to travel both ways.
- Each enemy is weak to a particular element, taking bonus damage from it, From what I can remember: Succubus (mouth), Honeybee (chest), Mummy (chest), Mushroom Girl (mouth), Snail Girl (ass), Sheep Sisters (pussy), Cow Girl (chest), Plain Succubus (pussy). If you don't know where the elements are, the Hand and Mouth skill menus both have the mouth element skill top left, chest element top right, ass element bottom left and pussy element bottom right. Hitting an enemy with their elemental weakness causes them to give special dialogue.
- You can defeat enemies by talking to them. This involves using one or more of the 6 talk skills in the Special skill menu, each of which contains several dialogue options. Each option will increase, decrease or have no effect on the enemy's opinion of you, and each enemy type has their own preferences. Note that the enemy can still attack you while you do this, so be careful. Once you've raised their opinion high enough you get a "Friend Flag" (unmissable due to these words appearing at the bottom left of the screen). A new skill will appear under Special, which allows you to end the battle instantly. Note that winning this way seems to prevent you gaining experience or muni, but it does give you a unique equipment (specific to the enemy type) which raises a stat.
