Thank you very much for the heads up.
This is one of my favorites.
I hope @Meowstrophe is up to the challenge yet again, and raises his sword one more time like the hero we don't deserve he has been up 'till now.
Most of the challenge is figuring out the point of various skills. You could theoretically just bust through everything by overleveling yourself to the point where you're unbeatable, but you can more easily beat various bosses by figuring out their pattern and using the appropriate skills.
Instant buy to support the creator. One of my favorite artists and just the right type of h-content for my taste.
Does Kagura Games usually release the additional content-patches down the line? Still not sure if I ever got them for their older releases and it would suck if one of the best scenes was missing here.
Also, unrelated to this release, do they list the original Japanese names for their releases anywhere on their site or Steam? I often wanna search for the type of H-content in the game and English names rarely get results.
They do update things with new content (like Divine Miko Koyori got a 1.3 patch after its final version came out) but Kagura Games is also really, really bad at explaining that, since for whatever reason they dance around all the adult content of their games.
Probably because they have to assert that a bunch of 15 to 16 year old high school girls are really 18 or older to keep clear of various laws.

Well, elaborating on the stam and mp mechanic and their diminishing dmg, attack commands, routing, upgrades, struggling, obvious choices would take longer than usual to make a thread out of.
Okay, beat the Frostia trial, so I will give a quick review that I'll copy as soon as someone makes a new thread (edit: there it is).
I love this so far!
The main character is such a great fit for this kinda game and scenario. Smug, bratty and overconfident goes very well with magical girls potentially getting into tight situations. The Voice Actress also sells her super well, both in dialogue and H-scenes. Plus I appreciate that we get some scenes with normal human thugs early on. Frostia getting beaten and humiliated by those scrubs makes for a nice mood, compared to the superpowered badguys that will appear later.
Speaking of the scenes, there's 4 so far (1 normal defeat-scene, one pretty elaborate one for an early optional event (visit the star at the SW buildings in town after talking to the otaku in school but before doing anything else in town and lose), a 1 picture one for a failed QTE and a nicely animated one for losing to the boss) plus combat-H from the 1 normal enemy-type. Decent content for a free trial that only covers ch1.
And ofc Ixy's art is as great as ever.
The combat system is pretty interesting with how it handles the diminishing damage with stamina and mana respectively, plus the usual Defense Barrier you gotta uphold. The Blitz-like input system feels a bit gimmicky, but I guess it fits the theme with the input-based hentai-defense and makes for some additional challenge. It's nicely fast-paced so far and the boss was a light challenge (when going into the fight half-dead).
tl;dr: Already big step up from the very good Lysteria Lyristia! Looking forward to the full version.
PS: There's a scene-gallery at the end. Will add a save.
PS2: Pressing ESC after losing a battle will end the post-battle sex after the current round. Otherwise they will have fun with Frostia forever.
PS3: There is light Ryona, but it's only Frostia taking some attacks, light beatings and getting choked in one QTE scene. Nothing that goes into torture or guro.
This game recently got an H-OVA, and a second episode was announced. Most of the first episode was setup, with Lyristia's rape scene and reversal being the climax.
This page has the character designs for the OVA:
Hmm, it's priced the same as the full game and tagged as a game. But seems from the description there won't be any actual gameplay involved. So it'll be more like a VN I'm guessing?

its basically an extra bad end scene from a game over that was rather rushed finished.
It expands the protagonist of how thoroughly fucked she was after capture and yeah I do admit its very short unfortunately.
But the quality of CG is definitely better than the main game that was seemed shorter with lacking angles.

There's three endings that depend on your actions. The "True" ending (aka: what happens in the main game) unlocks the gallery mode and optionally contains an "unlock everything" cat. Its not very difficult to find the true ending but if you want a guide I can type something up really quick?
