Fleeting Iris Reviews

For some reason, I can't seem to unlock any CG scenes. The game takes me through the main story and skips anything CG related. Can someone tell me what I'm missing?

Ayame Sawada is a very perverted woman with a very powerful sex drive. The problem is though, that she really does not want to be that kind of woman. This is the key conflict throughout the 20 different endings for Fleeting Iris. While many people look at these kinds of games and just see fap material (which is understandable) I think Fleeting Iris is more then that. Don't get me wrong I did find many of the H-scenes to be very arousing. Ayame herself is an absolute bombshell babe of course. So I bet people will love seeing all the different scenes she finds herself in. The art took some getting used to for me since its not a style I usually look for, but it is well done, and I came to enjoy it very much. With that said, what really stands out in this game for me is the stories and characters. Ayame's struggle is framed very well as a struggle about denying who you are. Several people Ayame meets continue to challenge her notions of what kind of person she should be. About if she really wants to be the prudish puritan that society says she should be. There are even scenes where she speaks to a therapist about these kinds of struggles and the game gives a pretty thoughtful answer to them. Fleeting Iris is a fairly open game that gives the player many choices to decide what path Ayame's life will take. The 20 different endings in 10 different routes that all happen based on the things the player chooses to do. All of these are very well written and cover a wide range of what to expect. Ayame can stay focused on her love of her new fiance who constantly works over time and leaves her alone and unsatisfied, or she can find ways to indulge her desires and eventually come to terms with herself. Some routes will actually feel quite wholesome, while others will take you on such a roller coaster of emotions that you will feel completely overwhelmed by what just happened. I have been playing the Patreon version which does include many extra bonus scenes that are unconnected to any routes and just count as free roam scenes that you can get if you meet the requirements. There is a morality system that goes down as you find more ways for Ayame to sate her desires, lower morality can unlock more scenes and more endings. If I had to pick one complaint it would likely just be that there are a few times where Ayame seems a bit too naive. Though it is expected since not only is Ayame trying to be the nicest most forgiving person she can be, but also she has the whole country girl in the big city vibes. So the naivety could be excused, especially since many situations just wouldn't happen if she didn't have that naive side. It all still plays out very well and rather believable I think. All and all this is quite the experience that really spoke to me about how much we should or should not value the traditional ideals of what relationships and sexual encounters should be like. Its worth playing through for anyone that cares more about a h-game with a deeper story and meaning to it.

The art is wonderful and that's about it. It's pretty trashy of an eroge with multiple routes to constantly force actions and scenes on players. There is next to no freedom in the game which is something that most, if not all, eroges should have

One of the best Eroge game for those who love Cheating / NTR Pro - Have nice BGM - High Quality CG and ART ( All the female character really hot specially tanned iris xD ) - Have lot of stories and side content Cons - No sound effect while S** (except ejacu****) and no voice acting - incomplete game, but according heavenstudios twitter this game will be full complete in the end of this year(2021) 8/10 for me sorry for bad english lmao xD

This game was released in an incomplete state and does not receive the same updates as the Patreon version. While the story is fun and the in game world is big this does not feel anywhere close to complete.

I want to cater why this game has mixed review. First thing first, this game has been developed for a long time, maybe 8 years. The early part of the game is really as the bad reviews said. 1. Railroad you at earliest. 2. Empty city 3. 640 x 480 resolution (I have the solution) 4. The current version is 1.10 when the Patreon has 1.13. 1-3 is partially because this game is very old. Like back then the developer were a more bit ameteur-ish if I'm allowed to say that. Also perhaps they using the older version of RPG maker. 4. Well idk how much dono you need to unlock the download patch there. The lowest possible is $1. 1.10 has already have a lot contents, the missing ones are perhaps babysitter ending, and bestiality. Well, i do hope we could get the rest from Kagura, maybe a DLC? But for now it is what it is. 1. Story railroad At the latter stages, you can have more freedom to roam. There is an obligatory route you must follow at the earlier stages. The Melvin (Pub), Gracias, and the Convinience story. It is like, you must say 'NO' to any of those to get access to the latter branches. Except you're really want to clear one. Save game are plentiful and sometimes it warns you when to save. No worries, there's all CG unlock cheat also. If you delved deep into a particular branch (not counting the obligatory ones except the Garcias), it will railroad you for sure. But it is for the good, because when it does, the story really kicks in. Pre Melvin- Garcias- Pre Convinience---->Real branches including main Melvin and Convinience branches, also many more. The obligatory branch also when Ayame's Moral meter matters, when it goes down below 60 at the end of it, it will unlock another low moral branches while locking the opposites. I don't think this is a spoiler, kinda giving you the bone structure of the branches in the game. 2. Empty city This is a bit difficult for me to explain, but the game has a lot places, and is quite huge for an RPG maker game. The city isn't empty per se. BUT, you have to unlock into a certain stages to get more functionality from the said city. This is when people, well including me, feels the city is empty. Like walking into an unnecessarily huge space without having meaningful interaction with something. Even then some of the new places or endgame places still feels empty because the game is still BETA according to the developer and still ongoing changes for we don't know when it will be finished. Only when you unlocked the necessary condition, you'll feel each corner of the city has more and more something to do with. The city is getting more lively. It is not like the best decision to design something like that, since the condition to unlock the part of the city is quite obscure, also getting this uneasy feeling of emptiness at the beginning. But I kinda understand why the developer need to restrict a certain interaction to avoid errors in the future, since the game is still under development. And mind you, it isn't like I feel the developer is a pro at beginning, but definitely is getting better. I'm coming from I could see a massive art improvement from the old, obligatory branches, and the true ending, to the newly added ones. Like bruh, what kind of pose is this ? Until wow this is hot. Also better QoL, better crafted scenes, as the game getting closer to the end content. 3. 640x480 Use NIS, Nvidia Image Scaling. I'm using a third party program named Loseless Scaling (from Steam) to scale the game full screen 1440p. I do not endorse Loseless Scaling but it is what i use. IMHO it is a godsend app if you often playing any sort of Japanese classic Game Maker games. If you're using an nVidia card, you can try to hook it into the GeForce experience, define it as a game to enable the NIS. I usually using sharpness 7 or 8. Not a definitive solution but it will look much better than otherwise. Since 4 is already well explained above, i'll discuss how is the other aspect game . .The story telling and art definitely loose at the beginning, but getting much better at the latter stages of the game. About more than 80% are the better ones. .There are some bugs, like the shower bug, it will erase your character sprite. Also 2 other bugs I've found which stuck the character into the wall. Save often, i have like 25 slots used and i've saved 1100 times. They're game breaking bugs but isn't completely necessary at times. I mean you don't have to shower, the wall stuck can be avoided if you pick the other answer, which is a straight up better one. .Some of the H-scene is animated, and do have a lot of fetishes. Maybe less BDSM, no scat and gore, and no Bestiality if you don't own the DLC. Scenes are leaning to Hardcore in general. .No wardrobe, so you cannot change your character appearance except for skin tanning and pubic hair... Which is kinda weird since the game has a lot of costume (only available at the right moment). .The story is mostly NTR, with corruption if you choose to. It was engaging to read. And i do not read that often. The narrative is supported by a craft of scenes. So it conveys more than just reading words. .No battle of any sort. .Music is surprisingly has wide and airy feeling...Not the nicest BGM ever but it is above average. .Download the game patch at Kagura's website first to unlock the most of the content. Just Google Fleeting Iris Kagura. .I recommend to open the game setting, then set the game walking speed to 4. Set the autosave ON. Also mouse support, it sometimes handy. .Has basic H-counter Do i recommend the game? Hell yeah, only perhaps this and Celesphonia has my stamp of approval for the amount of sexiness contained in an eroge. Maybe when discounted if you're not certain.

absolutely great game! however it should be mentioned that some games on here are the child-friendly versions and once you buy the game you have to go here: https://www.kaguragames.com/product/fleeting-iris-patch/ (highlight > crt+C to copy link) to actually download the real game itself, which i honestly cannot fathom why this is the case at all and nobody or nothing has ever mentioned this once, which in the first place is why i honestly thought i was getting ripped off at first... my only gripe is the game window is really small and doesn't have any options to increase size that i am aware of, this game is awesome and is everything advertised 5/5 ...please Kagura/Starke, please let people know vital information like that

It's initially set up like any slice-of-life hentai RPG: Iris got trackers for Morality, Lust, and Charm, and there's even a Trust Level for your husband-to-be. There's also a nice day-to-day cycle, where you find or go to work and experience events before heading back home at the end of the day. Much later, there's even an option to pass the time watching TV at home to fast forward to the afternoon. However, the game fails in the design of its various so-called "paths". Once you "lock" yourself into them (as the game refers to the one, maybe two choices, at the start of the "path", you're no longer free to roam around: EACH DAY will fast forward to just the relevant event for that path so you're unable to do anything else in the city. A little bit smarter design would have ran these "paths" along with the actual game parts instead of them just being a long cutscene. This gives the impression that the path has not been fleshed out as should have been if this was a true slice-of-life RPG. I have only experienced one of these paths and gotten the "Hero" ending. I am hoping the taking the other choices would give me a different ending that is a win for Iris rather than Robert. The railroaded paths even had bugs (like suddenly being provided the "Real Time Event" tutorial when there have been a lot of RTEs before that). The sex scenes are hot but I cannot recommend this due to the janky design and the lack of real choices within a path. Still I'd play this again. I didn't lower Iris' Morality for nothing.

I can't really recommend this game. The art is great, and the premise is EXCELLENT, but it drops the ball entirely when it comes to gameplay and exploration, the city vastly feels empty, there's isn't a whole lot to do. You're railroaded very early on, and when you finally get your freedom to explore you quickly realize you're locked into a path and now you can't escape it, which drags you to one of the endings. So while it is an excellent story, which multiple kinks and an excellent corruption of Ayame, it's just far too frustrating to play through and there just isn't enough content. If you do get it, make sure you follow the grocery shop path, and watch the twin sister ending, it might legit be the hottest thing in this world and nearly made me want to give this game a positive review based on that ending alone.

DO NOT buy this game on Steam, buy it on Patreon. To get the uncensored version of this game (if you dont you only get the Robert route) you need to go to Kagura's website and download the patch. As of writing this, the Steam version is very behind of the Patreon version. They said they will upload another patch when all of the DLC is finished, which is not until AT LEAST MID 2022. I do enjoy this game and would recommend it, but before you buy this game check Kagura's website and Heaven Studios discord and Patreon to see if the Steam version is up to date with the Patreon version.
