Perhaps the best game put out by my favorite developer. The story is well worth the effort, and a thousand times was more interesting than the erotica—which itself is none too shabby.
I am overjoyed to see it on Newgrounds.
Reviews for "Ouroboros"
Great game, plays on your expectations and the tropes of the genre.
If you enjoy rpgs with a twist and a bit of nsfw content then this should be right up your alley.
The Game also has a lot less grinding than most rpgs.
I have been a longtime fan of the author, anyone who enjoys this should also check out their other works.
Probably one of the best RPGs I have ever played, and that includes triple A titles. The plot is very interesting and I love the many changes to the dialogue as you progress the story. I also like how the game is explained well despite the ability to play in a non-linear fashion.
I have found one bug, I think - (CONTAINS SPOILERS)
After [unawakened] Amiel joined my party but before speaking to the fairy, I wandered around in the beginning forest and got awakened. With Amiel in my party, I went back to Amiel's house and triggered an automatic conversation with Amiel. However, the speech bubble came from a empty spot where Amiel would usually stand. I finished the conversation and the game continued as normal, so it's not in any way a gamebreaking bug, but just thought I should mention it.
All in all, I love the game a lot, and will check out Ouroboros v 2.0. I know you described it as having around double the content of this free version in terms of dungeons and sex scenes, but will the story be expanded upon as well?
SierraLee responds:
Glad you enjoyed it! As for the bug, that's unfortunate - I'm pretty sure we got it fixed for version 2.0, though.
Version 2.0 has the same story in the sense that it starts and ends in the same places as this one, but there's more content in the middle. Some of it gets into more backstory, other parts just let the characters do new things on different cycles. There are definitely more conversations between characters available. You also get a chance to meet the sorcerer from the plot twist again.
I love this game, but it's a shame that you can't level up or get gold from any places asides chests.
How about a sequel?
SierraLee responds:
I'm glad there's interest, but really, I told the story I intended to tell with this one. It would take a special kind of inspiration.
