    To me this is one of the classics of the MtF/corruption/horror genre. I've replayed this many times, making different decisions along the way to see what happens and how the story changes. I really enjoy slow transformation as a theme, both MtF and corruption in general, so this game really nailed it for me. Plus, the Lovecraftian horror that serves as the background for the erotic elements was handled very well.

    -Nothing-

    Objectively
    Story
    You play as a middle-aged masculine male, which you can call whatever you want. His friend's son is missed and recently many dead bodies was found. All of it is strange and you need to investigate it with the only lead you have, the mysterious village called Wanton Cove.
    Gameplay
    Choose by dialogue options what you want to do in village, go to places, talk with people, enjoy woman's company, etc.
    Graphics and sounds
    Sounds and graphics limited only by your imagination.
    Problems and bugs
    1) Actions you done through the game might not affect the ending.
    2) Looks like you can't get the happy ending, unless you choose it after getting common one.
    3) Limitations of created character are nullified only after beating a game, so first playthrough might be frustrating because of that.

    OVERALL
    Unique and interesting experience, that might bore and frustrate closer to the end. Don't expect something really good here, it's just fine little but deep game

    I am usually not much interested in text based porn games but i am happy to make a exception to this one.

    One really interesting detective story mixed with elements of lovecraft horror plus futas. That makes the perfect combination of porn-horror.

    Exelent writing, a feeling similar to point and click detecctive quest games, but including sex. However the total lack of images is a bit dull for me. If there is some visual aid I think the game would be a lot better.

    Yes, I'm sucker for good storytelling and when you get Lovecraftian feel - it's bullseye. I still remember HPL "Lurking Horror" on C64 or "Wolfman" (my favorite) text adventures.

    Rich story, wonderful portrayals, ominuos atmosphere... Entering Wanton Cove and first night in "The Barmaid's Daughter" reminded me of "Call of Cthulhu - Dark Corners of the Earth" - thankfully without frantic escape scene.

    I'm still playing so I can't give my final verdict, but I'm sure in (future) greatness of this game.
