Succubus is a retro 2D side scrolling action game featuring a succubus as the heroin.



As the previous reviews have described in details the game mechanics, I will not speak about them again.



The three stages have a strong feeling of old 8 bits era gothic horror games such as Gh*st & G*blin or C*stelvania (well, the fact that you have to destroy candle to found gold and weapon is a strong reference to the later). The succubus will travel through dungeon, cemetery, old garden and castle, fighting ghost, goblin, zombie, man-eater plant, slime and other flying skull. The atmospheres of the stages are very good, with some animation in the background for some of them, and create an interesting gap with the sexy succubus.



The animations are well done, including the H animation. It seems that the CG has been changed for the english version of the game and they are gorgeous. The game is pleasant but rather short, with only 3 stages and a low difficulty. The only parts that need some efforts are the second boss and a platform part of the 3rd stage. However, if we think about the price, the game has a very good price-quality ratio. Even if I have already finished it, sometimes I begin again a new play, just for enjoying the game.



About the H scene, the important thing to understand is that the game is oriented "girl's power". I mean that the heroin dominate the male opponents, r*pe and killed them. Not the opposite. If you search a game where the heroin is humiliated and r*ped if she is defeated, this game is not what you are looking for.



I would have liked to have an H event unlock when a boss is defeated but this is the only regret that I have with this game.



A very good introduction to the Succubus series from Libra Heart.
