Hentai Game Review: The Paradise Fortress of RePure Aria

This is a game I hope to see translated.  Part of this is because it doesn’t play too nice with auto-translation software and it would be nice to know what’s going on!


The Paradise Fortress of RePure Aria (also known as Magic Castle RePure Aria Paradise in other places) is another sexy monster girl eroge, but unlike the many RPG clones out there it’s an action game in the Metroidvania vein.  Jumping off platforms and flinging fireballs at enemies is the order of the day rather than turn-based battling.  It’s similar to another hentai action game, Nightmare Sphere, but with a male protagonist (sort of), no futa, and a stronger emphasis on female monster girls.

The ‘sort of’ male protagonist is because there is a little bit of gender bending.  The lad strikes a deal with a demon princess to share his body while they explore a massive castle.  In female form the player is highly mobile and can fight enemies with magic.  She also has multiple forms which are hidden as crystals throughout the castle.  These different forms have different abilities which, like the old Castlevania games, serve to unlock previously inaccessible parts of the castle.  For example, the chaos form can slide under small gaps and the innocent form can freeze waterfalls, making them climbable.

If the demon princess form takes enough damage she reverts back to the male form and this is where the hentai elements come in.  When the player is in the male form, rather than attacking him most of the monster girl enemies will try to do...uh...other things instead.  (If you’re not 18 and found your way here by accident, you should not read any further).


A succubus, being a succubus

There are a lot of different enemy types, each with their own sex attack to perform on the player if they can.  The sprite graphics have a fairly simplistic style, but are well-animated.  There are a couple of more conventional hentai pics/scenes that can be unlocked later in the game.

As a game it’s another example of someone pouring in a lot of love and effort to make something more than just a selection of naughty pixels.  Even without the H content this would be a pretty good action game.  The protagonist handles well, the differing demon princess forms mechanic is interesting and there is a huge castle to explore with a good range of sexy monster girl enemies to run into.  Oh, and a few creative boss fights that require a little more thought than just hanging back and blasting away.

Bosses are in thrall to the creepy red eye thing at the centre - it doesn't have much interest in sex no matter what form the player is in.

Another good thing is that the H elements are actually integrated into the game.  Being caught and forced to have sex with the various monster girls will eventually result in the white ‘cum’ bar depleting and then running out of red hearts/lives.  However, sex does bring some benefits.  Occasionally a girl will leave a present in the form of a familiar that can be equipped and grant the player additional abilities. (e.g. Fire Sprites that float along with the player and fire bullets.)

Overall there are a lot of nice ideas and there’s plenty of value as the castle is so huge.  On the downside, the huge area means it’s easy to get lost and not have a clue where to go next.  Some might find it a little too frustrating, especially with the language barrier and not understanding what items/familiars/etc actually do.  Thankfully, quite a few people have been battling through the game and this thread is enormously helpful for players that get stuck.

If you like sexy monster girl eroges, but are a bit bored of the RPG-maker-type clones, you might want to give this a look.  And also, with a bit of luck, someone like RogueTranslator or Dargoth might put out an English translation while they’re waiting for Monster Girl Quest 3 to come along.

And you thought the sorceress in Dragon's Crown was ridiculously over-endowed... Boing!

Jackson in HRPG-World: 4-7 Bubble Bother

Bab shows off some more bubblegum tricks as the tale heads off to XXX-rating...


Jackson in HRPG-World: 4-7 Bubble Bother

“Shh,” Bab said.  “It’s your turn.”

She wiggled her crotch in his face to indicate what she meant by ‘his turn’.

“Now put that tongue out and give my pussy a good licking.  If you’re good I’ll reward you with some bubblegum 69.”

She smiled back at him and blew a little pink bubble before snapping the gum back into her mouth.  Jackson’s cock twitched at the sound.

Bab bucked her hips down, pushing her sex into Jackson’s face and bouncing his head off the elastic membrane beneath them.  Anyone would think she was trying to hint at something.

She let her full weight rest on Jackson’s face, burying his mouth and nose in the musky folds of her sex.  She giggled and wiggled her ass, pushing Jackson’s head around as she ground her pussy against his face.

Okay, okay, I get it.

He was a new man.  He knew when to reciprocate when it was expected of him.  Fair’s fair.

He stuck his tongue out and ran it along the hairless groove of her sex.  He used it to tease the swollen flanges of her labia.  He lifted his head up and kissed the opening to her sex.  His tongue slithered up and dabbed against her clitoral hood.

Any doubts on whether she liked that were answered swiftly as her body stiffened in pleasure and she clamped his head between her thighs.

“Oh yes,” she sighed.

She blew a stream of warm air that tickled over his penis.  After blowing a big load into her bubblegum blowjob Jackson thought that was it from his trouser department.  Apparently his second head had other ideas.  It twitched and started to mushroom upwards in an erection.

Jackson delved deeper into the moist crack of her vagina, his tongue wriggling and lapping.  She tasted like sweet bubblegum.  He supposed that shouldn’t have surprised him too much.

Then it was his turn to stiffen in pleasure as Bab blew another bubble that enveloped his cock and bobbed against his balls.  She puffed her cheeks and the warm elastic membrane throbbed pleasantly around his penis.  Jackson’s semi turned into full and throbbing in a matter of moments as blood flowed to his crotch with a speed that left him feeling a little dizzy.

Jackson sighed into her pussy.  Wanting to keep pace, he probed and licked with his tongue, causing shudders to run through her body.

A bead of pre-cum dribbled from the tip of his penis.  It melted through the bubble membrane and then his whole cock was inside.  He felt her warm breath tickle against his exposed skin and cascade down the shaft.  The interior of the bubble was hot and humid.  It felt like a sauna just for his penis.

He shivered with pleasure as he felt her exposed lips kiss the swollen helmet of his erection.  She pursed them and blew a little bubble that enclosed his glans before popping.  The pop sent a shot of pleasure down Jackson’s shaft that ricocheted through his body.  It was the first of many and he writhed uncontrollably beneath her as each pleasurable burst rattled through him.

Jackson redoubled his efforts with his tongue.  Let’s see if I can make you come first, he thought.

He didn’t fancy his chances considering Bab appeared to know some kind of leet bubblegum-fu sex art, and was applying it mercilessly to his defenceless cock.  He pushed his face up into her groin and probed deeper with his tongue.  Bab’s body tensed as though she was on the brink of orgasm.

Maybe...

Her body relaxed.  Her pussy dilated and a pink stretchy membrane ballooned out into his face.  Tasted like bubblegum too, he thought.  It didn’t dissolve or break like bubblegum, though.  The membrane was far thicker.

That was the rational part of his brain.  The other part was screaming: She can blow bubbles out of there!

He knew it was wacky videogame physics where anything could happen, but really.

The bubble expanded out into his face like an airbag made out of soft latex.  The stretchy membrane clung tightly to his face.

That was when he noticed he couldn’t breathe.

Suffocated by a bubble blown out of a dragon girl’s vagina would have sounded comical had he not been the one currently struggling to pull air into his burning lungs.  The sticky membrane covered his mouth and nose.  His nostrils were filled with the sweet scent of bubblegum and the musky odour of sex, but no air.

Bab giggled as she bounced on the bubble.  It was as if she was sitting on his face, but he didn’t get a respite—or air—whenever she lifted her hips for another bounce.  The cloying sweet membrane covered his air passages as thoroughly as if she’d put a plastic bag over his face.  He squirmed and bucked in a fruitless attempt to find oxygen.

Bab blew another bubble around his cock.  This one was warm, and moist.  It rolled down his shaft and it felt like he was pushing up into a tight vagina with soft, fleshy walls.  To his oxygen-deprived brain it felt like there were two girls—one riding his cock, the other his face.

Her cheeks moved in and out as she alternated between sucking and blowing.  The bubble enveloping his penis squeezed and squished against him.  Jackson tensed up as a familiar precursor to release thrummed through his nerves.  He passed out at the same time his hips bucked upwards and he erupted within the pulsing bubble.

He opened his eyes to the sight of Bab noisily sucking the remainder of the deflated gum off his cock.  She looked up and smiled at him with bright green eyes.

“That was a big one,” she said while chewing on the gum.  “Men always put out a lot when their breath is taken away.  I wonder why that is.”

“You nearly killed me,” Jackson complained.

Bab shook her head.  “In this game universe you’re subject to the same rules as any other avatar.  You can’t ‘die’ while you still have lives and credits remaining.”

She closed her eyes and savoured the gum like a food critic at their favourite five-star restaurant.

“Mmm, you really are tasty,” she said.  “It’s because you’re real rather than virtual.  Really magnifies the flavour.”

“So they keep saying,” Jackson said sardonically.

“You should be careful,” Bab said.  “If the other girls find out they might be tempted to carry you off and keep you forever.”

“What is it with all the sperm-sucking anyway?” Jackson asked.  “I thought you were a dragon, not a succubus.”

Bab shifted position on top of him, turning around until her head was level with his.

“And how come all the succubus-type monsters seem to know this is a computer game?” he continued.

Bab ignored him.  She lowered her face until her nose brushed against his.  There was a big smile on her lips and her big green eyes sparkled with mischief.

“Fancy a bubblegum fuck?” she asked.

Jackson in HRPG-World: 4-5 Bubble Bother

Bab leads floats Jackson up to her bedroom for a little foreplay.


Jackson in HRPG-World: 4-5 Bubble Bother

He pushed ineffectually at the elastic walls.  Through the translucent membrane he saw Bab looking up at him with an impish smile on her full lips.

You really walked into this one, Jackson thought.

The bubble continued to float up higher.  Jackson’s options at this point were rather limited, imprisoned as he was within the sphere.  A hamster in one of those plastic balls could at least pick a direction to run in.  All Jackson could do was push his hands out against the rubbery membrane like a convict clutching bars.

Bab gave him a little wave and walked back up the curved staircase.  Jackson floated up with her on the other side of the room.  The bubble followed a preset path and rose up past a balcony and into what looked like a sumptuous bedchamber.  Really fancy.  Like something out of a period drama—all frills and elegant furnishings.

Apart from the arcade cabinet standing against a wall with its electronic guts strewn out of one of the side panels.  That didn’t belong at all.  Naked girls with scales, wings and a tail were not exactly a regular sight in Downton Abbey either.

Bab sat a fancy white Regency table and nonchalantly filed a nail.  Or rather claw.  She held up a stiletto-tipped finger and blew on the nail.  If this had been a cartoon Jackson suspected there’d have been an exaggerated glint of light to emphasise the pointyness.  Bab looked over her shoulder at him and smiled.

Jackson didn’t like that smile at all.

He struggled in another ineffectual attempt to burst out of the bubble.  It drifted slowly across the bedroom, about five or six feet off the ground.  Bab stood up and walked over to meet the bubble in the centre of the room.  Still smiling that impish smile, she held up a single pointed fingernail and let the bubble drift into it.

The bubble popped.

Jackson somersaulted out of the popped bubble as if flung by catapult.  The world shifted again, only this time it felt like he’d had lost a dimension rather than the world around him.  He felt like he was a paper cut-out.  And blue, oddly.  Blue like a cartoon character coming out of a frozen lake, although he didn’t feel any cold.

He ricocheted off the walls and ceiling.  Bab tracked his progress as he bounced around the room.  She bent down and blew another bubble, orange this time.  Jackson’s spinning form fell into the bubble and it flattened out like one of those airbags movie stuntmen dive off buildings into.

Ugh.  Jackson felt proper sick.  He felt like he’d experienced every ride at Alton Towers simultaneously.  His stomach was not in a happy place.

It wasn’t the only part of him struggling.  He lifted up his arms and saw he was flickering in and out of existence like a hologram with a faulty battery.

Worrying.

Bab’s smiling face and expressive wide eyes appeared over the side of airbag bubble.

Even more worrying.

She reached over and buried a claw-tipped hand right into his flickering chest.

Let’s just say the mercury had burst right out of the top of the worry thermometer on that one.

There wasn’t any pain, which was really surprising as her hand had vanished up to past the wrist and was rummaging around inside his rib cage.  Jackson was fairly sure that should at least sting, but he couldn’t feel a thing.  Bab continued to grope around as if rooting for treasure.

And treasure she found.  Jackson’s eyes widened as she pulled a handful of gold coins out of his chest.  Where the hell had they come from?

Bab’s green eyes lit up.  “Ooh, that should keep us going for a while,” she said.

Jackson didn’t really catch that.  He was currently stuck in a full-on weirdilepsy fit.  The picture had gone wrong, as if all the colour had drained out of the world to be replaced with shades of black and white.  The sound was fucked up too, like he was hearing everything through ears filled with cotton wool.

Bab walked over to the ancient arcade machine that looked completely out of place amongst the opulent furnishings.  Jackson heard electronic bleeps as Bab fed the coins into the machine.

“I hacked the game,” Bab called back at him.  “I was fed up of men flickering out and vanishing the moment they lost their last life.  It was annoying.  To get all hot and wet and then, poof, they’re gone.  So...”

She stabbed down on a button.  The machine burbled out an electronic jingle.

“...I added a continue option.”  Smiling ear to ear, she looked back at Jackson.

The queasy insubstantial feeling left him.  Jackson held up his arm and saw it was solid again.  His vision and hearing returned to normal, well normal for being trapped in a virtual world made out of pixels.  He struggled out of the deflating orange airbag and stood back up.

Bab dropped some leftover coins onto a table next to the arcade machine.  She crouched down around the other side and plugged something in.  Then she retrieved a piece of bubblegum from the bowl on the table, undid the wrapper and popped it into her mouth.  She chewed on the gum and blew out a pink bubble.  A normal-sized one this time, not like the weather-balloon-sized one that had swallowed up Jackson before.  She ran a hand over the pink surface as if lightly caressing a breast.

“Hmm, yes,” she said after sucking the gum back into her mouth.  “I think you’ll like how that feels.”

Jackson was wondering why he wasn’t already halfway down the stairs behind him.  He suspected it had something to do with her naked breasts.

And a certain ‘quick screw’ comment.

“I’ve been looking forward to this for a while,” Bab said.  “Not many gamers frequent these parts nowadays and the ones that do are a little...well...beardy.”

“Beardy?”

“Old and nerdy,” Bab elaborated.  “Oh, they’re sweet enough, but they don’t really get a girl’s motor purring, if you know what I mean.”

Jackson did.  Bab’s expression was positively filthy.

Bab walked around him, looking up and down his naked body.  He knew he’d been doing exactly the same a few moments ago, but he hadn’t been so gratuitous about it.

“And I do?”  he said.

If Jackson had a body that ‘got a girl’s motor purring’, it was the first he’d heard of it.  College and university would have gone a lot easier with this knowledge.

“Of course,” Bab said.  “You’re real.  Flesh.  That’s incredibly rare in here.”

Uh-oh.  Things usually turned very bad when game characters noticed that.

“Oh, is that the time?  I really must be—”

Bab crouched down in front of him and grabbed his cock.

That was stepping backwards out.  Not unless he wanted to leave his dick behind, and that wasn’t an option as far as Jackson was concerned.

Bab snapped gum between her full lips.  She looked up at him with her deep green eyes.

“Have you ever had a bubblegum blowjob?” she asked.

An Appetizer for Monster Girl Quest pt3 - Monmusu Delicious -Breakfast-


In this case 'appetizer' is an apt word.  This is a collection of alternative scenarios featuring characters and monsters from Monster Girl Quest and is available on the English dliste here.  First off, it's exclusively Vore.  If you played Monster Girl Quest with the 'Let's-Watch-Luka-Get-Eaten-Afterwards' option box firmly ticked off you're probably going to want to give this a miss.

That caveat out of the way, it's not a bad little curio.  You get a bunch of new artwork and alternative Bad Ending scenarios with appropriately gloopy sound effects.  It's not a game as such, more like scenes from a visual novel that 'play' in any browser.  It's not translated yet, but I suspect someone will come along soon with a translated version.

Most of the vore girls from the first chapter are featured.  Luka gets gulped down (again) by the Lamia, Alice, Alma Elma's tail, and also has a very sticky ending at the hands of the Mimic.  Sara meets the Sphinx (aka the What The Hell Were You Smoking Monster at the end of MGQ1) without Luka.  It doesn't go well.  Camel's Cecil puts in an appearance and ends up in the Jellyfish Girl's bell.  Not even other monster girls are safe as the Two-Tailed Kitsune ends up in the Spider's web and the Goblin Girl (what did she ever do to anyone) goes down the throat of the Genie.  In the guest section the Ghost Girl gets a vore scene she didn't have in the original game.  There's also an alternative Bad End for the Blob Girl which is a big improvement on the fairly rubbish one in MGQ2.

"Yay, I get sex this time before she eats me."

If you're a voreaphile, you'll want this.  If you're in the 'eww' camp, steer clear and wait for MGQ3.  I totter on the fence in between.  I like seeing sexy monster girls render their prey helpless, but it's more fun when they follow up with life/soul-draining sex (you may have noticed this trope repeated over and over in my stories! :) ).  Belly bulges and digestion don't really do anything for me.  Each to their own and all that.

(I did quite like the Ghost Girl and Blob Girl scenes)

With the exception of the Blob Girl, all the monsters are from MGQ1.  Given that quite a few people appear to have downloaded Monmusu Delicious -Breakfast- already, I wouldn't be too surprised to see a Monmusu Delicious -Breakfast- 2 featuring the Canaan sisters, Starfish Girl, Scylla Maid and (shudder) Cassandra from MGQ2.

Oddly, they missed off the Sea Anemone Girl.  Never fear.  I have an idea for a Sea Anemone Girl scenario I might turn into short story.  I'll post it here when done.  If anyone wants to throw some artwork my way I'll happily incorporate that (and throw a link back to the artist's page).
