That was an enjoyable experience. I know it's a short game, maybe not too extensive, but it had some good moments. With a restoration patch installed of course.

This game needs a pretty big discount or a small price.
Not a bad story and scenes but .
There is no in-game menu.
You can only save and see your items.
There are no missions, no way to exit the game and even a big screen option.
It's like it's half developed.
2023 is even a joke. (Not that many games aren't.)
With a very big discount, otherwise it's not worth it.

I think it's a very good game mixing mysteries and revelations we also end up loving the protagonist over the course of the adventure, many choices are present with several possible endings and several "Game Over". However, I'm not very smart so I only made bad choices (with the patch otherwise it's not funny).
I recommend this rather short game, despite this playtime that is not really worth the initial price, so it’s better to wait for the sales to buy it.

I wish I could recommend this game but it is really disappointing. The gameplay loop is tedious and you [i]have[/i] to do things in the right order or it doesn't work. And sometimes the reason you missed a puzzle is because you need to examine an object twice for it to give you the ability to continue. The H scenes are pretty good for the most part, most of them are fairly heavy.
There is one scene that just grossed me out and I am usually open minded, but it wasn't too bad.
I have yet to try the sequel so hopefully it has improved on some of the let downs of this game

In the very slim chance that you’re like me and you just love j-horror rpg maker games and you’re wondering if this is worth playing despite being a hentai game, I’m happy to report that it was pretty enjoyable. It requires a patch to add the hentai content in so by default it pretty much is just a fun little adventure mystery game.
The idea of an eldritch God spreading bracelets that grant people’s twisted desires is genuinely compelling and something that would be cool to see explored further in a more plot oriented game. J-horror is basically comfort food for me and the vibes on this were very cozy. The game does a great job at highlighting exactly what you need to progress, although I did find myself getting lost a lot of times and blindly wandering around. Kind of odd knowing what this game is meant to be that it’s asking you to actually put in some effort to play it. But either way, I had a good time and definitely plan to pick up the sequels.

As a fan of Sprite Hills other game "Alternate DiMansion" I had high hopes going into this game that it would be pretty good. Unfortunately the quality of this game is not nearly as good as Alternate DiMansion. After doing some digging I discovered that this game was actually originally released on April 24th of 2014 which explains the apparent quality drop.
So as for gameplay you kinda do a loop of discovering different problems to solve and talking to different characters to see what you can do. It can get repetitive and boring at times. and I beat the game in around 2 hours. The H-scenes in this game are fairly good but still not as good as Alternate DiMansion. I would say that they still have some creativity but as this is an early work it isn't as good as it could be.
I will say that exploring the map was sometimes confusing as you'd walk down through a door and suddenly you need to start going right.
There is also a gallery at the end of the game which you can get to through the fathers bedroom.
Overall I would say that this is an ok game to get but I would recommend getting it on discount.

The game's story was linear and the gameplay was literally non-exist, just go there and there talk to npc, grab item, go to sleep to get the next scene. but what really annoying was most of the H-scene was from game over scene which makes the feeling that those H-scene were not part of the story. aside from it, art was good and the H-scene mostly contain extreme non-consensual H-scene.
Peculiar H-Tag :
Bestiality (Insect & Dog), Rape, Slave, Tentacle.
Personally the game just okay because most of the H part is my taste
6/10

Akanemachi Mystery is an okay mystery game where you explore Akanemachi for clues, items, and people to talk to. To begin with the positives, the hentai isn't bad and covers a few genres, some of which are definitely on the strange side but not out of the ordinary. Another positive is that this game is a nice reminder of games like Monkey Island, Leisure Suit Larry, and, of course, Sam and Max, all of which I had growing up but never had the intelligence stat high enough to beat. Those games typically were longer, had charm, and, most important of all, had a mystery or puzzle worth solving. Sadly, this is where the positive ends and the criticism begins, as this game had none of the aforementioned aspects, not in length, plot, gameplay, and not even in the hentai department. At least Sprite Hall's other game, Alternate DiMansion Diary, had a plot worth seeing to the end, semi-decent puzzles, and an epilogue.
The only mystery here is why the game costs 10 bucks for only 5 dollars' worth of content.
