The development is still in progress, and we are passed the midpoint. There is a lot of content already to play with though, and a bunch of it is free.
i am brazilian and i have some difficulty reading things in english but i love your game i would like to know if someday in future updates you could maybe bring a translation into brazilian portuguese
We might translate it but there is a huge amount of text, so we don't know how realistic it is at the moment. The game might have over a million words at the end.
Thank you. Scenes with multiple girls will be a thing, but we don't plan to have multiple males or futa at the moment, so don't hold your breath for those but who knows. I never thought of doing a dedicated skill tree for scenes. It could be something we add later on if it make sense and we have the time.
It's all OK! It's still an powerful and really good game. You know your target group better than I do. I thought about it because society is constantly diversifying and becoming more colorful
EDIT: I figured it out. Leveling is very important, it's probably worth it to have a larger notification than the little red exclamation mark at the top of the screen. after picking up a decent skill and swapping it out for parry, I was finely able to win the fight.
This game has really, really good art but confusingly balanced combat. From what I can tell, enemies get to use 2 attack actions per turn, plus any non-attack actions they have. For example, the second fight of the game, (when running up to a hex 3 distance from them) will use the following series of moves (I will be attacking their arms with slash each round):
turn 1:
bandit: move to you. hefty swing (30 dmg), move to you again because of the knockback, delay action
bandit: basic action (45 dmg), hefty swing (30 dmg, push, +30 dmg if you hit a wall)
I am out of HP and die
that is a total of 335 damage from them with several status effects and 84 from me (all the damage values are going off prediction and looking at the card descriptions in their discard, I didn't record actual attack values).
to ilustrait my point, here is how one turn went when we were both at full HP:
One of his attacks, which he used along side unstopable in the same turn, dealt 27 damage, injured my head, brought my arm armor from 28 to 4, and applied 3 points of bleed damage.
one of my attacks on him deals 6 damage and brought his arm armor from 28 to 22
I am sorry about the essay, but I just want to make it clear the difficulty I am having. It mathematically seems impossible to beat the second fight of the game (where you are scripted to lose the first one). The enemy has between 2 and 3 times as many actions as you on their turn, and almost every single one of the actions they get does signifigantly more damage than you. I am sure there is something I am missing, but I have spent over an hour on this fight, trying every strategy I can possibly think of, and nothing has even come close to working. And this is only on normal difficulty. that isn't including the fact that several of their attacks not only do massive damage, but also hit multiple random limbs (or at least, the limbs they hit are not revealed when using preperation) so you can't plan around their really strong attacks with parry.
Again, I am sure I am doing it wrong, but I just want to know WHAT I am doing wrong and how I should be doing combat.
Thank you for all that. Yeah the combat still need a lot of polishing and balancing, but we are getting to it. A lot of enemies and skills are somewhat out of date, and we definitely need a combat tutorial.
Fantastic game! Thanks a bunch, really fun experience.
I don't get the combat, maybe I'm just inept but it seems impossibly hard so I just skip most of it if I can. I really love the artwork and there is so much detail in the dialogue which Is impressive
Overall 8/10 in it's current state. I'm really excited to see this game more polished and fleshed out!
Is there a rough release date for the android? Been wanting to play either of these but pc got fried in an electrical surge (wont trust surge protecters ever again) so android is the only system i can anymore.
No, we didn't start on that yet, prioritizing to make a good desktop experience first. But we will get to android eventually, we just have limited resources to work with.
is there any way to download the game faster? maybe with a compressed version? sadly i just can’t download it all in one go with my laptop’s low battery output and the slow download speed
The right click is a temporary feature, we aren't sure if we will allow the skills to be refunded in the final game. Those two can't be refunded in case you carry items or skills over the limit (temporary fix).
Why some enemies can walk 3-5 cells and attack 3 times in one turn? But the protagonist cannot do same actions with high levels, just because there's not any skills to attack 2-3 times and run from enemies for one turn. I'm not so sure, but maybe many unopened skills are useless, and only simple strike and parry skills are useful.
Neverending batlle in the thief guild have some bugs. I survive 3 or 5 waves and get 2 spawned bandits in one sector. After killing one bandit, the game AI thinks here's the free sector, but that sector still have one thug. Is it impossible to kill all thieves? I killed 30-50 bandits, but the game spawns them again.
Usually you remove an enemy card to prevent them from doing a strong attack. And seeing their card in advance allow you do prepare for it. You can't "use" their cards.
This is a great game. . . .and that is come'n form my view from about a year ago. I mention that because I have been saving the rest of this great game for ONE (kinda two) reasons. No complaint really just one of those "don't want to spoil the game before release" reasons and that is the potential addition of the female player character. So I will be the happy one waiting for that update or full release in a feverous stand for this to come. Can't wait to sink my teeth into this on release day. . . .when ever it comes.
Thank you! We produce the game in the same order as the story, so there is not that much spoilers, and there is quite a large amount of content already.
hey i love your game so much...and i would like to bought patreon build but beacuse USD is high compare to my countrys money and i cant ğay thta amount of money...can you make a steam version for people like me?i am sure you will get a lot of good responds and if you already planing to do a steam version when it will be relased?
Hey, our goal has always been to publish the full game on steam (and itch), but we want to finished it first, so you might have to be a bit patient for that unfortunately.
i would say this game is a 8 or 9 /10 this is one of the few porn games ive played that would be just as fun even if it was not pornographic the scenes are amazingly drawn the combat is fun and the stories are interesting i think sometimes its a bit easy to have intercourse with some of the characters but even that's not even a big problem in conclusion over all the story is really good the gameplay is actually fun even if it wasn't a porn game and if your just playing for the porn you can skip the combat
I am continuously told that a scene hasn't loaded and am told to start from a save. I've done this multiple times and even deleted every save in order to restart from the beginning. Is their a way for me to fix this (I'm using Windows and Build 20)?
It could be due to your antivirus preventing the scene file to be loaded, it happens to some people, try to whitelist the game. But yes it could also be a bug.
hoping to see some more character customization for redic/whatever name players decide to use. and for that customization to actually show up in the art(i.e. skin color). hope i'm not coming off as ungrateful though, been following the game on and off for a while now, and I really like what's been done since I last took a look, extra customization would just make me like it even more than I already do.
Yes you can change his skin / hair / clothes colors already, but as you said it's not reflected in all the art assets yet (it will eventually). But we don't plan to go much further than that (no race or gender change), since it would be a lot of work as can you imagine.
I dont know how to say it, dont want to sound a bit of a downer but, here goes. The game is great, i got only into like 3 characters quests and exploration. The idea of patreon version is great for you, im just wondering when the main storyline is pushed or you gain the set target for this game maybe replace the patreon content with new scenes and the old ones should be pushed trough? Im just giving an idea, dont bully me after this is posted.
Check the walkthrough if you are stuck, there is a lot more than 3 free scenes / quests. But yes keep in mind that this game was always meant to be sold on Itch / Steam when it's done, so it will never be completely free unfortunately. The free version is like a demo, so you can decide if you like it enough to support the development.
Please don't sell it on Steam exclusively. They've 100% banned adult content in many countries including mine. Thank you and please make 20 more Nailah scenes <3

is this game completed or still updating?
The development is still in progress, and we are passed the midpoint. There is a lot of content already to play with though, and a bunch of it is free.
three questions; is there equipment, does skin change based on said equipment, and is there erotic equipments?
There is combat gears but no armors / swords choices. And the player skin doesn't change much at the moment. Erotic scene don't have equipment.
We might translate it but there is a huge amount of text, so we don't know how realistic it is at the moment. The game might have over a million words at the end.
great game, what are the soundtracks? Is there a link for them?
The soundtracks are original to the game. A few of them were posted by their author on newgrounds: https://psyware.newgrounds.com
And there is a soundtrack player in the game gallery.
After a couple of years I have rediscovered this wonderful game. :) Great work!
For the sex scenes: what about some gang bang and or transsexual scenes? And: what do you think about a skill tree for the sex scenes?
Thank you. Scenes with multiple girls will be a thing, but we don't plan to have multiple males or futa at the moment, so don't hold your breath for those but who knows. I never thought of doing a dedicated skill tree for scenes. It could be something we add later on if it make sense and we have the time.

me: slah (14 dmg)

me: slash (14 dmg)
turn 3:
basic action (45 dmg), back off (25 dmg + slow + push)
me: slash (14 dmg)
turn 4:
hefty swing (30 dmg, push, +30 dmg if you hit a wall), unstoppable (+6 strength tokens, increasing all further damage), basic action (45 dmg),
me: slash (14 dmg)
turn 5:
bandit: basic action (45 dmg), bash (15 dmg + steal all limb defence)
me: slash (14 dmg)
turn 6:
bandit kick (5dmg), out of cards, delayed action
me: slash (14 dmg)
turn 7:
bandit: basic action (45 dmg), hefty swing (30 dmg, push, +30 dmg if you hit a wall)
I am out of HP and die

Overall 8/10 in it's current state. I'm really excited to see this game more polished and fleshed out!
Thank you! We plan to have a tutorial for the combat later on, hopefully that along with some polish and balancing will help.
is there a place for grinding level and money?
No there is no grinding for now.
The crimson dervish is dead in her quest, is there any way to save her
You can save her with the correct decisions in the dialogue. (in the underground room)
Do I need to pay the guard 20 silver to save her
EDIT: already figured out
Could you take a screenshot of where you are at?
Why, thank you.
Will there be a quest and scene with Esther
Yes, near the end of the Brothel arc.
Is there a way to carry saves over to the newer version or do I just have to restart?
The saves carry over automatically but there is no guarantee they will work between versions (they most often do though).
Will there be version for Android ?
Yes eventually, but we are focusing on the desktop version for now.
Is there a rough release date for the android? Been wanting to play either of these but pc got fried in an electrical surge (wont trust surge protecters ever again) so android is the only system i can anymore.
No, we didn't start on that yet, prioritizing to make a good desktop experience first. But we will get to android eventually, we just have limited resources to work with.
is there any way to download the game faster? maybe with a compressed version? sadly i just can’t download it all in one go with my laptop’s low battery output and the slow download speed
You can try the alternative links here: https://priceforfreedom.net/avarice/download
But yeah the game is becoming pretty big and we don't have a low quality version for now. We might make one later.
I don't get how to work card baiting at all.
I try to remove Riposte from the thief, but that dude make Riposte anyway right after my turn,
Looks like a bug, I will check it out.
Maybe there's a bug. I can't remove those perks by Right Mouse Button, but other perks don't have problems with it.
The right click is a temporary feature, we aren't sure if we will allow the skills to be refunded in the final game. Those two can't be refunded in case you carry items or skills over the limit (temporary fix).

I'm not so sure, but maybe many unopened skills are useless, and only simple strike and parry skills are useful.
Yeah we need to do some serious balancing with the combat movements and skills, it's still pretty unpolished.
Is there a good place for hunting, working for gold, grinding or sim life elements?
Or the game has all enemies and money spawned only by quests!?
At the moment there is no grinding or xp farming. We might add some of that but it needs to be balanced properly.
Thanks!
Neverending batlle in the thief guild have some bugs. I survive 3 or 5 waves and get 2 spawned bandits in one sector. After killing one bandit, the game AI thinks here's the free sector, but that sector still have one thug. Is it impossible to kill all thieves?
I killed 30-50 bandits, but the game spawns them again.
No it's not possible to survive, but we should probably make them harder in this fight, and fix the overlapping. Thanks.
I thought it's a really good challenge :'(
(maybe with 100 or 1000 thieves to clear all city from dirt people, lol)
>>but we should probably make them harder in this fight
I forgot to say, I played hard mode. In other battles enemies are very hard.
This sounds great I really hope y'all make an android version soon can't wait for it! Keep up the good work fellas.
hey, i love your game, especially the art of it! With what art programm are you doing that? :)
We use mostly PaintTool SAI.
I used SAI too. lol Awesome tool like Clip Studio Paint! :3
Is there any reason to get cards from enemies in the battle? I don't get it at all. How to use stolen cards?
Usually you remove an enemy card to prevent them from doing a strong attack. And seeing their card in advance allow you do prepare for it. You can't "use" their cards.
Thanks!
whats the

No, but we will make an android version eventually.
When?HAHAHAHAH
Just......wow! Honestly speechless at what these devs have achieved, on par with divinity II. Just wow!
Hey thank you, not quite there yet but we are doing our best!
Hi! I think this game is cool and has top tier animations but will it be available on Android any sooner?
Probably not soon but eventually yes.
hey i love your game so much...and i would like to bought patreon build but beacuse USD is high compare to my countrys money and i cant ğay thta amount of money...can you make a steam version for people like me?i am sure you will get a lot of good responds and if you already planing to do a steam version when it will be relased?

Hey thanks a lot. We still have a lot of things to improve but that's encouraging.
I am continuously told that a scene hasn't loaded and am told to start from a save. I've done this multiple times and even deleted every save in order to restart from the beginning. Is their a way for me to fix this (I'm using Windows and Build 20)?
Which scene is it?
Entering the Catacombs, however it has recently stopped doing this. It crashed a few times but even that has stopped after a few more tries.
It could be due to your antivirus preventing the scene file to be loaded, it happens to some people, try to whitelist the game. But yes it could also be a bug.
Cant wait for android version.
Damn looks good..will it work with joiplay android?
Eventually yes, but we are focusing on the desktop version for now.
easily one of the best games i tried, and I tried a lot of RPGs
Thank you. It's still far from perfect but we are working on it.
The artwork is so solid. <3
hoping to see some more character customization for redic/whatever name players decide to use. and for that customization to actually show up in the art(i.e. skin color). hope i'm not coming off as ungrateful though, been following the game on and off for a while now, and I really like what's been done since I last took a look, extra customization would just make me like it even more than I already do.

Totally get it, I wasn't really thinking anything too big like race or gender anyway, definitely will support later today
I dont know how to say it, dont want to sound a bit of a downer but, here goes.
The game is great, i got only into like 3 characters quests and exploration.

i can't find anymore quest, i still cant get in the gov area
Check the walkthrough.
i just want to know how to save
If you can't save it's probably an antivirus issue. See here https://priceforfreedom.net/avarice/faq/antivirus
