    All in all, the story is not bad. It drags you into something that feels alive which is refreshing. My gripe with it is how it insists on droning on and on about lore. It's a whole lot of tell and not enough of show.

    The characters are interesting at first but as the game progresses you realize they're not that deep. Despite plot twits and things happening, the characters remains dull. Which is surprising cause a lot happens in the story. But you don't FEEL that character growth.

    As for sex? The animations are done really well and the characters are sexy enough. So why does every scene feel the same? Cause they're repetetive, they don't have any depth to them. It's just "ok lets fuck. Ok that was some good fuck." The characters don't seem very into it so how can I?

    My main gripe however is the MC. You'll be seeing a lot of him so disliking him is gonna hurt everything. Hes's a gary stu, that's the short of it. It gets boring, alright? This wouldn't be such a problem if the game didn't try to be this much of a lore heavy game. It mixes badly.

    Still, it's above average and for people who can overlook the negatives I've listed, it's gonna be a good game.

    The story is grinding now. It started off very well. After two years we are still at the Elfen kingdom slowly grinding.
    I really like the game but now losing interest.
    Hope we get the flowers and start a new chapter soon.

    I enjoyed The Seven Realms game! The story got me hooked, especially because the characters were so interesting. All the girls were outstanding. They were so beautiful.

    Rendering 10/10
    Characters 10/10
    Story 8/10
    Animation 10/10

    (Overall)
    I give it a 9 out of 10. The characters are charming, the story is interesting, and it's worth playing!! The story got me hooked, especially because all the girls were outstanding. They were so beautiful. But unfortunately, the main character is infertile. No matter if you choose to cum inside or not, nothing happens.

    Pro: Good animations

    Con: Everything else. Story is bad, and while the sex-scenes are animated very well, with no build-up, chemistry or reason for them, it might as well be 2 sex-dolls doing the nasty. Save your time, play something else

    Excellent game, good story and great visuals. Now it has a lot going for it, hence the 5 star!

    But it isn't without it's fault(s) - some or most have been mention by others!
    Now for me in particular it's the jumping from 0 to 100 on the sex scenes, some had a render or two of maybe dialog or the MC undressing a LI, but most weren't!

    Review for R3 v0.08!

    From a technical and visual perspective, it's a very good game.

    It's tough to balance an MC being likable in games like these, but I think the author did a disservice by making the MC a huge Gary Stu with tons of backstory the players don't see or go through. Showing and not telling isn't just for movies, it's great for visual novels as well BECAUSE of how visual it is, when we get lore dumps about what the MC did before we had control of him, it ruins a lot of the punch and weight of the decisions, and the plot doesn't make up for it.

    I enjoy plot in my visual novels, and yes I mean actual plot, even in adult ones, and I know the author put a ton of effort that should be commended, he makes frequent updates compared to a lot of his peers, I think there is a fundamental thing missing from this game for me to embrace it truly. If the MC was NEW to this universe and could explore it along with the players, this game would be better. We don't need some ultra-high vampire prince to take control of, we could have a character that grows more with us.

    I know this review might not be completely favorable but I do want the author to know I respect his abilities as both an artist and the effort he has put in, it's just you drop us off the deep end and instead of us as the players learning it as we go along, we get lore dumps from the MC while explaining it to others.

    How does this game have any legitimate high reviews?

    The strength of the renders is the only thing that gets the game a star. Everything else about it is depressing.

    You literally open the game with a hideously unattractive harem already throwing themselves at you.

    The story progression is missing completely, though at least the english quality is ok

    The played gets absolutely zero choice about who touches him or what he does. Where there are two choices one is just a loop until you pick the devs 'correct' choice

    Choice of models for the renders is attrocious

    UI quality is high

    I have been playing and enjoying this AVN for some time now. The writing is not bad, and not amazing, but it works. What is Amazing, if not the best I have ever seen in an AVN is the animations. They have improved with every update, but this last one, holy cow! Superfluid to the point it feels like they used live-action shots and animated them. The story is decent enough to keep this entertain too. It's well worth playing this one.

    It's visually fantastic, but the writing isn't good at all. I tried getting through the first season, and I just couldn't. The writing is basically on the level of Twilight, which I think encapsulates just what you're getting into. Of course, you could just skip the writing and get to the sex scenes, but I feel like at that point it really just hollows the experience, because most of it IS the mediocre dialogue and story.

    What a dope game!

    I came here with many expectations and gotta say that R1 was good but barely, wasn't happy with renders and animations much, but I can look beyond that, if writing is top tier. Unfortunately it wasn't the case, I've found many holes in the story in R1, that I almost dropped this game. It isn't bad and had couple very bright moments, but mainly the plot kept me there.

    Glad I didn't drop it tho! R2 is completely different beast, not that only renders and animations improved massively, but mainly the writing touched different highs. Absolutely love Ba'el, that's totally my boy! Other cast got improved a lot as well. Can't wait, where the story will bring me in the future.

    Not sure if I should start R3, since I would prefer to play whole chapter at once. But so far so good, there are very few games I'd recommend to everyone, but this is definitely one of them.

    - Side note for animations, gotta say that these are the best animations on this site afaik. I was and perhaps will be again animator in 3D space. Not only rigs for characters are awesome work, the action is extremely fluid and natural (even in cinematics and fights), but the physics of enviroment around them are something I've never seen here before. From stupid cushions to pillows to water etc... I can tell that immense effort went into them and I really appreciate it. Hats down and continue your great work! ;)

    It is funny to me that the dev and writer put so much effort into writing this drama about politic, betrayal, and power struggle between these fantasy creatures. Yet, chose to cop out when it comes to one of the most important pilar of what make a good AVN that is a good steady progression of relationship between MC and the love interest.

    Here, the progression of the main love interest goes from 0 to 100 in a blink of an eye due to the concept of soul bonding or mate bonding or whatever the f*ck. Which compel the love interest to trust, love, and f*ck MC. I actually hate this concept whether in the form of mind control, hypnosis, love god, or succubus power. It just make everything feel meaningless and the affectionate moments not feel earned. And you would think that the concept of soulmate or soul bond would mean one lover....right? No no no...due to some bullsh*t adjacent "reason", this a**hole has three soulmates and a few side chicks to boot. He probably has more but I don't know because I stopped reading after realm 2.

    And what do i mean by a**hole....well, MC is a chad with the attitude of "I am a heartless vampire prince and I f*ck around without string attach....so deal with it." And I cannot take this guy serious every time he talks because of his bushy eyebrows and thick lip. Homie looks like he came straight off the Jersey shore with a few botox injection. Yet, somehow girls throw themselves at him. At one point he literally said "I will f*ck you, but dont expect to be treated with love" to a girl and she agreed lol

    I give this a three stars because there is a lot of contents here. The presentation and UI are also good. Some AVN don't even bother with those. The animation of the lewd scene need some work in realm 1 but improve a lot in realm 2. The story is somewhat decent and i say "somewhat" because I like said I stopped after realm 2, thus i don't know what happen afterward. I am not willing to go further than that as the main reason why I read an AVN, The Seven Realms doesn't provide.

    At the moment this is just drama/politic of fantasy creatures sprinkles with meaningless lewd scenes with no real relationship building due to this "Soul bonding" crutch. Might tickle some people fancy but for me I think I am better off watching porn, beat off, and then read a real fantasy book lol

    I came for the Maledom, I stayed for the Story.

    The MC character of the Seven Realms is the heir of the most powerful vampire and the ruler of the seven realms which host all magical beings.

    Initially I expected there to be potentially some maledom content with the premise I can say one shouldn't play it with this expectation. While the game initially seems a bit mid in production value over the course of the Part 1 and 2 the quality rises to imense heights.

    The characters are given all their time to shine. While non of the action will be tearjerking all of the characters are above average in quality.

    The animation especially in later parts reaches realism, something that is new to me in any AVN. While the visuals itself are not photo realistic obviously some of the later animations themselves feel on movie like level. They are among the best sex animations I have ever seen. Even good animations often look like animatrons moving in terms of speed. The scenes here look realistic.

    It is therefore so disappointing to see that the A in AVN isn't really fleshed out. And before anyone screams wtf. I am not talking about the amount of adult content but the stuff that is in them. None of the characters aside from very rarely the MC show any indication to preferences in sexual intercourse. They women are all bisexual horny beings that like to fuck the MC. I count so far 3 scenes from dozens that have any kind of non-vanilla themes. One public display scene, one mild maledom scene and one mild femdom scene. The characters are given growth in terms of their role within the story to a degree. But the relationship between the MC and the LI is all vanilla they love each other very much. Not just in terms of sexual things. But the characters don't bounce of each other and develop individual relationships between each other. Es example,

    Having the relationships between the individual characters not all being identical would have elevated the story and the adult part at the same time.

    Playing the first 2 parts will take you quite a while if you read everything and you should. This is a longer game with a few choices here and there. Most of them though are just there to gain points or avoid sex scenes.

    Sadly the initial asshole route of the MC seems to not really be used much. You can't really have different versions of relationships with any of the LI.

    So in summary I can say play it for the story. But don't expect a lot of very kinky stuff. The most you can get is 3 foursome scenes.

    You will not regret playing this game. The 4.5 star average is pretty justified. It's a real gem. Here's why.

    Something I do not see mentioned enough is that the quality of the models and H-scenes gets a really wild upgrade once you reach chapter 2. If you didn't like the generic rendering & graphics in C1, you're in for a really huge surprise by C2.

    I called it a "real gem" earlier because of it's unexpectedly good writing. The lore is already kinda cool, but the writing is seriously amazing, you can tell whoever wrote some of the dialogues especially has an actual understanding of social intelligence that you rarely see in AVNs at all. All this, paired with the crazy quality upgrade you get in C2 onwards.., yeah, just insane. Blessed I stumbled upon this lol

    There's never a game on f95 I can really, wholeheartedly, give a 5/5, but this game has managed to come the closest. It's art fr

    Okay i played the game for like 2 days and i must say that even if the premise is good and all, i feel like the romance here is so forceful on the player and i don t llike it at all, i mean, i dont even find the woman that the MC loves with this bond attractive to the point of loving her just from start with no build in relationshpis, it's like the game forces you to love her or like her, then this show starts to run with an interesting story about vampires, heirs and kings and all that, well i just want to fuck zara

    Excellent, havent started R3 yet, but based off what I've played so far its just excellent. The animation quality is superb, at times some of the renders may look a bit goofy because the MC is a big man with a smaller head, but otherwise theres nothing to really worth mentioning. Most things look crisp and beautiful, the story is pretty solid though I disagree with some writing at times, it doesnt really take away from the overall plot and its interesting at the very least. It's not a borefest with pretty animations, theres actual thought and development behind it.


    I always try to find one Criticism to give fairly and in this story the main criticism I would have is in part with the writing just because You are the Heir of a Realm, Basically the ruling Prince next in line to the King. People get involved with you as the story progresses and in the 2000 years of life you have, they are very quick to throw their weight and judgement into things for only have been there for around ~1-2 years. For how the MC acts I was bothered by this for a while but I finally had an opportunity to go against what was bothering me and that was a great thing for me as a player. So even if thing seem a little annoying or progressing in a way that you might not like, you may still be able to influence it. It was very nice to get past that though, which I'll leave in a spoiler below. Otherwise thats really it, everythings been great, was a great find and I'm thoroughly enjoying it.

    I played through R3 v0.05 in several evenings.

    It is an urban fantasy complete with vampires, werewolves, elves, demons, and etc. It is played as straight drama, with little humor and no comedy. If that sounds good: you will probably love this game. It looks great, there are lots of sex scenes which are well-animated. There are great characters, an engaging story, a decent soundtrack.

    It has some minor cons: the character’s small-talk can be too verbose, the story lacks much originality, the writing relies too much on coincidence. And then there is the time problem: someone numerate needs to sit down with the devs and have a talk about it, as some of the ages they put on characters are completely ridiculous.

    I am eager to see where the story goes from here.

    i was quite tempted to play this game when i first discovered it, but i was even more sold when i saw there was going to be a cute hybrid demon character named Kagome as one of the (Harem) Love interests. i will be keeping a very close eye on this & look forward to future updates.

    a genuine surprise.

    this game has the best DAZ animations in the niche porn game industry, bar none. not even NLT can even come close to it. starting from act 2, the animation and render quality just soars past anything else. it borders on dedicated blender/sfm porn animators' quality.

    for the vast majority of porn games their renders and animations are very mediocre and we just delude ourselves into thinking it's fine, their sexiness comes from the hours we spend with the characters rather than the actual art of the sex itself looking "good" in any measure. this is the only daz game i've seen where things actually look good on their own. and this game did not actually forget that it's a porn game, the sex is constant. There's always a scene around a corner and it's well packed.

    and the story is okay. by that I mean it's just as bad as any other porn game, really. full of terrible exposition, boring setting, make-believe politics. the game also railroads you on set relationships, which I don't really hate (as it assures all the work the developer is doing is seen by the player instead of being divided by who did whose path).

    but the characters are terrible so it's hard to like any of the relationships. the three love interests are all various shades of incredibly fucking boring, in personality and design. a complete failure on that part. there is a guy who gave this game a 1 star below and I just know he quit because of the shit characters without getting to see the amazing animations. i can't really blame him for that.

    still it deserves a 5/5 for trailblazing art quality.
