  Unlike the other reviews, I'll talk about the actual gameplay instead of knee jerk reactions to a lewd anime game. This game is a disappointment. Obviously this was cashed in as a huniepop clone, and fails to understand what made it entertaining. The premise is great, but that's all. For being a match 3 game, it's very hard, but for the wrong reasons. Unlike others in its genre, you're able to move your pieces anywhere. I dislike this because you can't predict how the blocks will move on the board, giving you bad outcomes. There appears to be a time limit to how long you can hold a piece before it automatically lets go. This is even more problematic when you're doing timed puzzles. Know how huniepop has broken hearts? This mechanic is here in the form of Skulls. Unlike huniepop, the default difficulty off the bat gives you an immense amount of them. Seriously, they're EVERYWHERE. Matching skulls makes you lose a turn. Which is vital since I'm allowed anywhere from 11-14 turns on the starting difficulty. This brings up another issue, you get very few points, even by matching many blocks. Each pair of girls has a favourite block color. If you match these, you get more points. Then there are matchable hearts, enabling FEVER. This lets you get more points for a match + combos. Due to the extremely low turn count and absurdly low points for matching anything but a favourite block, you have only one way to win. You allow RNG to give you a board with enough of their favourite block with enough hearts. You try to arrange them (if you can get around the endless amount of skulls) to setup a huge combo, then enable fever. Either that, or turn down the difficulty. Music wise, it's grating and annoying, or just tolerable. During Sora's scenario (brown-haired brocon) it only played one annoying track the whole time. All the while Sora is screeching "Ganbatte!" the same way, every time I don't make a move for 5 seconds. It was super annoying, I ended up muting my audio. Dialogue choices are obvious, so you never have to guess which is the right one. The Adult Patch is a joke, and re-uses the exact same CGs from Pure Girl and Innocent Girl. These are the games the girls come from. They couldn't be bothered to make new artwork, it appears everything is recycled. Unlike huniepop, there is no way to refund your turns, so the sentimental blocks are gone. There are no gifts, no food, no date questions, no shop. It's a cash-in with no character, and no thought put into its mechanics. Update: They released an easy mode patch, which I'm told trivializes the game. But this doesn't change my opinion, because there's still very little to this game, there's no effort and passion. It's still a cheap cash-in. I'm also told that this plays like a supposedly popular game (which I'd never heard of) called "Puzzles & Dragons". Some people very familiar with how that game works, claims this is trivial even without a difficulty change. Even though my review doesn't fully emphasize it, the fact this game is featureless and possesses none of the things which make Huniepop fun, it's still not worth your time. The people coming to play this game, will be coming from Huniepop, or are the minority group who think anything with waifu's is worthy of praise. If you came from Huniepop, look elsewhere. If you're the minority waifu brigade, this review doesn't matter.

  I was very excited to play this game. I loved HuniePop, so I wanted to play something similar. Although, [i]Purino Party[/i] comes out as a product with pretty looks but with an insanely annoying gameplay that ruined my experience. I like matching-3 games, I’m no expert tho, but wow I expected something at least fun and not so frustrating. About the story, it’s nothing brilliant. The goal is to unlock the lewd CGs of the girls, and interact a bit with them. You have two sets of girls, each one with 4 ladies. As a visual novel, it’s very shallow and yeah, you’ll be only playing to see some 2D beewbs. Nothing wrong with that if that’s your only goal here. And then… There’s the gameplay. You can move the blocks to any direction you want, and you might either get a lot of points or totally f*ck up and fail. It’s inconsistent, and it gets hard very quickly. The skull blocks are [b]everywhere[/b] after a while, so you’ll lose a few (if not all) of your moves. And there’s a time limit too. It’s challenging, it surely is. But after 3.297 tries you can get very frustrated and just feel like “I could google all the CGs and uninstall this crap before I smash my monitor with a hammer”. I had to download the easy mode patch in order to finish the game in the end, it got to that point. 3/10. The artwork is amazing, I also enjoyed the fact that the developers knew that the story was silly and they even made fun of it during the game. But overall, I simply cannot recommend Purino Party to [b]casual players[/b]. If you still want to try it yourself just wait for a good sale, the full price is really expensive for its content.

  For all the people who think this is another [b]HuniePop[/b], believe me it is NOT. There might be a little bit similar but in the end its a [b]Visual Novel[/b] with only a (very) little part of a Match-3 game. And even the parts where you have to win the Match-3 games it is nothing compared to [b]HuniePop[/b]. So i want to say that the Main part of the game is the [b]Visual Novel[/b] part. But I dont want to say it's a bad game i mean for those who like Visual Novel's its funny and it really looks great (the CG's are great as well) but for someone like me who really likes the Match-3 Games part (like in HuniePop) it isnt very good cause the Match-3 part in the game sucks. [b]To simply explain the Game:[/b] before you can talk to a girl you have to win a Match-3 game, after you win the Visual Novel part starts (dont expect a long conversation) after that you get a CG and you have to win another Match-3 game to see the next Visual Novel part... in the end you have to win 5 Match-3 games to finish all Visual Novel parts of a girl and to get all her CG's. At the Start there are 4 Girls (first half of the Game) and after you finished them you have 4 new girls. Oh and one last thing there isnt any girl with a Cup Size below C >.<

  Purino Party is a game that has gotten some pretty polarizing reviews from the VN community, with some warrant. The game is another title in the genre of HuniePop! clones, though this one may be the most blatant yet. Purino Party tries to mimic the lewd, crass humor of HuniePop! ; centering your protagonist in a house full of women who are all addicted to different sex acts. The gameplay is also familiar, you will have a short text interaction with your lady of choice (There is an element of choice in your dialouge and the wrong responses will make the puzzle to follow more difficult to complete.) and after which is a puzzle stage. The puzzles can actually be quite challenging, even early on, however if you fail to complete a puzzle you will be prompted with a screen that will allow you to lower to difficulty of the puzzle, retry the puzzle at the same difficulty, or give up on the route entierly. After you succesfully complete a puzzle you are rewarded with a photo of the girl you are pursuing and some more dialouge. I can understand why so many people have been turned off by how blatant this game is in its style, however that was not my experience. As someone who really enjoyed HuniePop! I don't actually mind all of the clones- None of them have been as fun or rich as HuniePop! But I really think the puzzle style works incredibly well for the VN genre and have been having a lot of fun with the different puzzle game/anime babe titles. Purino Party is not a story rich game, and it is not for anyone looking for any kind of substance in a VN experience. If you're just looking for something fun to relax with and maybe laugh a little bit, you should definitely consider picking it up, maybe while it is on sale.

  Gotta admire the balls of a company to put a link to a game's X-rated patch on its Steam store page -- but I'm not complaining; it's very much appreciated! Fappable, you might say. Frontwing weren't really on my radar until I played The Fruit of Grisaia, but that made me very interested in anything else they might have to offer. This is certainly no Grisaia in terms of narrative or emotional impact, but it's a fun game in its own right, and well worth your time if you enjoy challenging puzzles and romancing cute girls. Don't come into this expecting HuniePop, though, because that's not what it's trying to be at all. Whereas HuniePop was essentially a life/dating sim with puzzle games to determine your success rate in dates, Purino Party is a straightforward linear puzzle game in which you complete increasingly difficult puzzle challenges in order to progress through each girl's story path, with your reward for each successful level completion being an additional story scene and a CG to add to your gallery. There are choices to make in the visual novel sections, but these don't affect the outcome of the story; instead, they determine the difficulty of the subsequent puzzle section and have some minor differences in dialogue. The girls all have their own interesting personality quirks and traits and have clearly been designed as actual characters with a bit of thought behind them rather than straightforward fetish-fulfilment tropes. I mean, there's an element of that -- this is essentially a nukige, after all -- but there's enough care and attention been put into their depiction to make you interested in them and want to find out more about them. Don't expect any harrowing plot arcs or deep, meaningful character development, though a number of characters do subvert the tropes they might initially seem to represent. The puzzle gameplay itself is solid and presents enough of an interesting twist on the usual match-3 formula to make it worth checking out, even if you're sick and tired of Bejeweled and its endless knockoffs. Rather than moving one gem one space at a time, here, grabbing a gem allows you to move it anywhere on the board, with gems it passes through sliding out of the way appropriately. Once you grab a gem, you have 10 seconds to move it, giving you ample time to set up some chain reactions and combos -- essential techniques for scoring enough to pass the higher levels. Sometimes it can feel like the randomness of the initial board setup can screw you over a bit, but it's not that big of a problem; levels are all very short -- 30 seconds to a minute at most -- so it's little issue to retry. And if you're getting really frustrated, there's the option to lower the difficulty without penalty. All in all, this is a solid, enjoyable game. It's not going to win any awards for innovation or storytelling, but it's charming, cute, sexy and fun. And sometimes that's all you want.

  I wish I could recommend this if for no other reason than to encourage eroge in the west, but I can't in good faith do that. The biggest problem is the characters are unappealing. The way that they are all raging nymphos feels like a bunch of shallow pandering, trying to sell the audience what you think it wants. Porn may be an important part of an eroge but there's a lot more to it than that. It also doesn't help that CG's are unlocked as bonus items rather than making them scenes that actually occur leaving them with little to no context, which is such an epic fail when it comes to delivery. The gameplay is passable, but it is also shallow. It lacks any sort of progression or gimmicks to add another layer to the gameplay. To use Hunie Pop as an example, you could increase your skill with certain gems getting a bonus when matching them, you also had items that worked like 1 use skills adding a layer of strategy to it. Puzzle Quest also had this, you leveled up your skill with certain gems, and you had skills to use outside of simply matching the gems. This game could have benefited from such gameplay gimmicks. What is there is passable, but it isn't enough to stand on its own. If the game had memorable characters or a good story I could have forgiven the sub-par gameplay. If it had good gameplay I could have ignored the lackluster characters and story. Failing to make either facet good leaves the game unappealing and unenjoyable on all fronts.

  It is rediculously hard right at the first stage( 1000 points, 30 seconds, 10 moves) and the they talk too much. What made HuniePop great was the strategy involved through itemization and board control, you had complete control over which blocks fell when and could manipulate the board freely. Also, it is far too easy to lose a chunk of your turns. I can have a decent fever combo but lose half of my remaining turns. That's fatal, you cannot create more turns. Also, I've run into "but thou must" choices and chooing the wrong answer does not create an interesting outcome, it just make the puzzle harder. The characters are okay but they don't have the believability that Hunipop had.These arent people youll run into nor do you think " I've heard someone say that before." Huniepop was light on story but it didnt need it, I could easily imagine that this person exists. EDIT: This will remain thumbs down until 1) The tutorial doesn't mislead you and reveals that you can move pieces anywhere. 2) Matching skulls gets you points anyways

  So, let me open this review with what my impressions were when I had bought this game, as I guarantee that if you are looking at this game of your own accord, reading those will make you want to buy it. This game is a bit HuniePop, doing its own interesting twist on the proven Bejeweled mechanics with a colorful cast of characters, except with better storytelling due to having some visual novel bits, and is brought to us by Frontwing....the people that brought us the absolutely brilliant storytelling of the Grisaia trilogy. Holy shit, my money could not exit my wallet any faster. Well... Unfortunately, I really did not like this game. I'll go into some positives before I get into the meat of my issues with it...as, I do feel like this game had potential. -The art is quite nice and well done. -The puzzle mechanics, if they were to be tweaked a bit, would be quite interesting. Alright, Purino Party. Stop whimpering. On the spanking saddle you go. -First order of business, the characters...or, more specifically, their lack of character. They all basically start and end at their particular gimmick. Even their little quiz bits are crap. Remember how in HuniePop, you had to remember (or, type up) various facts about the girls and other things? In Purino Party, as long as your brain hasn't been replaced by cabbage stew, even if you were to not be paying any attention, you could easily figure out the "good" answer. -The visual novel bits were about as boring as you could get...though, I suppose that's to be expected, considering the extent of the characters' personalities. They all feel incredibly forced and rushed and they all start and end up with being contrived scenarios based on the characters' gimmicks. And, most frustratingly, at points, the characters are talking about doing things that seem like they could be fascinating....just to skip those portions and be talking about them afterwards. It's so difficult to believe that this was developed by Frontwing, considering how the whole thing reads like a Winged Cloud visual novel. IT'S BASIC "SHOW, DON'T TELL!" Come on! -The puzzle bits require some excessive tweaking, as in their current state, the they are aggravating to play at the best of times. On paper, being able to move a piece anywhere you want seems great...until you factor in how every piece feels just a little [i]too[/i] slippery and will regularly knock a piece out of place and the restrictive turn count. And THEN, you mention the downright impossible time limit, which makes the game just downright infuriating. Even then, the game could easily be workable, but the piece distributions need a serious reworking. You may as well not have time extension pieces, if you only see enough to make a single match-three every other match. TL; DR: Why did I continue playing HuniePop? Because the music was pleasant, the puzzle mechanics were challenging yet fun, figuring out various combos with the consumable items was quite interesting, and the characters were amusing and fun to interact with. Why did I continue playing Purino Party? Because, I was hoping that there would be the slightest bit of a redeeming quality buried somewhere in it....alas, no such luck.

  Not a bad game, but disapointing. The art is clearly recycled and essentially unrelated to the story that unlocks it. Even with the x-rated patch, the game is still mosaiced like a jav, which is bad. Writing is fairly unidimensionnal, characters are not very interesting and really carricatured. The matchgameplay is fine but ultimately hollow: no power ups, no levelling, no progression, nothing. Just pure execution on a puzzle-and-dragons-like board without any of the good parts. No routes, no significant choices, no secrets, no twist, just a series of girls to unlock. Huniepop is an obvious comparison but this game is nowhere near as good. But if you are really starved for a game that's "a bit like Huniepop" and can get this on sale, maybe this is for you...

  This game is a bad copy of [b]HuniePop[/b] [h1]Positive:[/h1] -The pictures are AMAZING *-* -dialogues are very funny und cute -characters are unique (-achievments look nice) [h1]Negative:[/h1] The complete programming of the game has been so badly implemented. It's so lame because there are no special tokens and unnecessarily 2-3 moves are taken away allthough you are moving just one token. :/ [u]I give 42 of 100 points[/u] ><
