Game is so well done, I keep replaying it only to be edge of my seat wanting more 🤤🍆. Hopefully news more content comes soon, but completely understand staking a break. OIHS is a great smutty story and I await its return.
Waiting for an UPDATE !😞
Will there be an update anytime soon? 😢
I have to ask. What skill do you need to expose the Father during his sermon, when I choose to check on him?
Its called something like "redirect seduction". You can get it from sleeping with the merchant and his two guards.
This VN is so interesting shit the ending is unexpectedly the serious face of zad is so cold shit
can you make some more father sloane and orsu sprites????
Need more sverocat on the next volume frfr
Have you considered translating into Chinese?
Need a route with just the bandit leader
I second the motion
second this, or just kinda spin-off "what if?" type a way
How do I update the game?
depends but on pc you just have to download the new version and open this new version and the saves should have been transferred into it with the updates. Idk if what i say really makes senses sorry '^^
This was an insane ride. Absolutely loved it. So excited for the continuation!
So i finally got around to actually finishing this game and i have to say the ending WAS SO GOOD! I don't want to say too much in case there are any new players looking at my post but this Visual Novel was soo fun! A tonne of good scenes in it and i cannot wait for more of the world of Magnalia! Looking forward to returning there whenever the next volume comes out! Keep up the awesome work Orange!
Alexi my beloved❤❤❤
like, look at him!!! he is so perfect :)
Yes he is. I really would like him to appear in FurryBara Academy....
When will you release the next version?
whenever they finish their other project, so no date yet.
This is a game rating comment (I tried not to post spoilers in my review, but I do allude to some things, so if you do not want anything spoiled, please do not read):
TLDR 3.75/5 Stars. Good sex scenes, good story/world building, but lacks weight when given choices because the end result stays the same regardless of skills or choices. (very linear, which isn't a bad thing, but when the main ending is "You are Evil", takes a lot of stock away from the player choices no matter what they do) I like Hyao's approach on choice management. Feels very impactful in his game "Lustful Desires" Here it lacks depth, but keeps you involved in the story because of the worldbuilding and characters.
So I played the game fully twice, and the first was just a normal playthrough, got the bad cards from the seer, etc. But then my 2nd playthrough I didn't seduce anyone at all and made the "good choices" but still got the same outcome? I thought making different choices would have given me different thoughts or made the main character act differently, but it didn't work like that. Unless I did something wrong.
So here is my review of the game, and this is just personal opinion so don't hate me haha.
First the bad because I like ending on a good note:
Overall the game is good, I do wish that you wouldn't be "punished" for using your powers though. I get the "undertale" vibe of not choosing to do certain things, but in a game that is mainly about sex, punishing the player for doing those things is kind of frustrating. I get why, I just don't personally like when games force the 4th wall of "are you a good person". My other dislike of this game is that even when you do have the skills necessary for certain choices, it rarely ever forces a different outcome. Like not having the skill just move you to the same path regardless. Someone always comes out of the blue to save you or the conflict just ends or even having the skill is still not "good enough" and you fail the encounter because it was plot driven for you to fail.
Now the Good:
I loved the different art styles personally. I felt it mixed in the realness of "you are in a different world". So people may not look all the same and even all the races are drawn differently and I enjoyed that. I do like the cute moments of banter between Zad and the MC. I also do like Sepheni's growth throughout the novel. You can tell she really had to mature fast with what was going on, and that even changed her on a physical level too. The writing was great for the most part, and this is coming from someone who has published poetry before. I do like a lot of the analogies and the sex scenes being written. I think the world building was phenomenal as far as the magic system and how the universe interacts with the characters. How there are taboo forms of magic, and different combinations, different towns, and even the academy being discussed in depth. There is a lot of lore hidden in the VN that makes me want to read more about the world, or have even an RPG style game in that magic universe.
Conclusion: I enjoyed the game, but I do wish there were more major differences between choices. (I also know how work intensive that would be to do that, but otherwise it feels like the player really doesn't have a choice in what's going to happen) I played it twice, and would even be up for a third time to see if I had missed anything on my first two play throughs. But to get it a rating, I'd say its about a 3.75/5 for me.
That's what I say! More choices, impactful ones at that... Not being rapped whenever you choose to use the skills 😂
I finished the game and. . . the MC isn't evil? He stopped the bad guy. Yeah, the cards SAY he turns out evil, but he doesn't?
Oh no bro, game is broken on Android, can't do anything at the heist 😭
ya sure? worked just fine for me, and mines not even that good
Well I certainly can't do anything at the heist xD
I wonder is the scene for second visit of bobby at construction site still work in progress or not.
This project appears finished.
Version is post 1.0 and last update was 6 months ago.
Vol1 is finished, not the whole project. but yeah, i think Bobby's second visit is not changing
The story is excellent but dude WTF! No matter what option do I choose I always end up being rapped (and the next one being far worse than the last), please give us real choices, combat abilities, survival, anything aside of being rapped 🥲
This is one of the best game i played so please tell me when will be next update or arc start I'm waiting.🙏
This game have been one of the best game ive ever played frfr, at first i only played this game becayse of the smut, but as a dive in the story as i interact with the characters my prespictive in this game suddenly change, espicially at the end it make's me cry frfr😭😭😭.

ps. thank u for indulging my request TT
When will be the next update huhu, its like the best game i ever played frfr huhu
Wuuuu... dear author when will u update this one... ?? Miss this a lot already TwT
Hi I’ve seen this option crossed out quite a few times and I’d like to be able to use it because it looks like it could’ve been very useful a few time so who do I have to seduce to see in the dark?
At the beginning you have to let the goblin pull you into the cave, then you’ll get that
I'm literally feral for this game, what i was expecting to be a short "few hours" kinda game took me days and that was after i wanted to explore everything and all options😂, loved thr artstyle(even though at first the inconsistency threw me off but i got used to it tbh), pls i hope this isn't all that's left and we actually get more stories and branching paths, Keep it up!!!!!🌟🌟
okay I don't even know if these decision are important in the long game but
is the hidden path or the lower path better for later in the game
also is Commerce: Sense Deceit more important than Artefact Intuition
Hope to see some art to go along with the scenes, it'd definitely add more to the game.
Hiiii is this finish?
Very fun game! I want to ask about the swamp mission in Rajt City. Is it destined to fail?
Yes, it is supposed to fail
I have become inordinately invested in the plot of this porn game, ending the last chapter on a cliffhanger is just cruel.
Fantastic game though, mixing a surprisingly gripping narrative and interesting worldbuilding with extremely hot smut. And the sort of "moral choice" aspect is honestly really interesting. Like it's specifically called out that the protagonist could become some monstrous, domineering tyrant if they just keep using Seduce and disregarding peoples' free will and consent, but that's the only way to gain some Skills and those Skills might be needed later. It creates this really interesting ludonarrative harmony where both the player and protagonist are constantly tempted to bend their morals to gain more power and walk further down the road to becoming that monstrous tyrant.
Having all of the options to gain Skills immediately after the game draws attention to the morality of your actions be ones that involve you Seducing people who can't consent was really smart. Every single time I saw one of those options pop up I always considered it. Even though I didn't take any of them since I was trying to maintain some morality, every single time I wondered if I was passing up Skills that could be vital later on.
It really does capture the kind of thought process that characters have in stories when they're being tempted by ambition and power: "But what if I need the power that I will gain by doing this evil thing?" You did a really good job at that.
thank u! glad u enjoyed oihs 🧡 and i'm happy u caught onto what i was trying to do w skills and morality 😁
When will you update this game pls huhu, pls update plssssss, its so goooddddd frfr
Are there any intimate contents with Lexi? Just finished his Adventurer's guild quest and I wanna cuddle the big guy after D:
if I recall correctly, after the quest, you can bump into him by working at the brothel :-)
Alrighty!! Thanks a lot :DD
this is already over for volume 1, but will volume 2 be a separate game or will it update this one again?
i'm not sure yet, but most likely it'll be a separate game
aight, thanks for the response!
please tell me there'll be a second game or something to know if the MC in this is alright 👉👈
to be continued!
Uh, that ending sucked bigtime. owo;;
I knew it would end poorly tho. But I still hoped otherwise. =w=
sucked in a good way, i hope!
YOO I just did the scene with Byron please tell me there’s going to be more scenes with him
unfortunately not! just a passing character :3
Bruh nah wtf was the ending? Mf I was INVESTED and you took my happiness away in an instant. 😭
mwahaha
Dammit I was here for smut now I'm fully invested in a grand adventure with smut barely in my mind anymore 😭
the smut was but the lure for my trap! >:3
Does anyone know where can you train with Rondal to get the skill? cuz I hadn't encountered this event before I walked all the places I could go and still couldn't find it.
It's a random encounter at the Adventurer's Guild, iirc.
what skill do i need for the shark guy
