Mandemon

i blame myself for not realizing this was ai at the time

I don’t usually play visual novels that often, so my knowledge of the genre is pretty limited. However, Mandemon managed to keep me engaged with its psychological horror-mystery narrative, and I appreciated what it tried to accomplish. At first, I wasn’t sure what to make of the game. After my initial playthrough, I didn’t fully understand what was happening and honestly thought, This game kinda sucks. But then, I discovered I had to achieve the multiple endings to understand the story fully—some of which remain locked until you’ve unlocked others. Finally reaching the "Ending the Cycle" ending was a huge relief after going through all the bad outcomes. The characters are a mixed bag, but the unnatural elements and psychological twists kept me intrigued enough to push forward. I also have to praise the soundtrack—it’s well-balanced and atmospheric, adding tension at just the right moments. If you’ve watched "The Promised Neverland", you might appreciate Mandemon even more, as it shares some thematic similarities. That said, I had a few issues. Some character expressions and animations felt AI-generated (though I can’t confirm that), which took away from the experience a bit. Another downside is that there’s no way to load a previous checkpoint after completing the game—you either have to make manual saves or start over to see different outcomes. I also noticed minor translation errors, though they weren’t game-breaking. All in all, Mandemon isn’t a bad game—certainly better than I initially thought. For just €3, it offers a unique yet imperfect horror story. While it doesn’t fully achieve the depth it strives for, the connections I draw to The Promised Neverland and its multiple endings make it worth checking out, especially if you enjoy story-driven games and visual novels.

我以为创作者会试图从生活的苦难中总结出某种民族性，去映日本在战后所受的内伤，结果是我高估它了。明明是有趣的题材，人魔的人生密度实在太大，可以埋设非常复杂细密的矛盾，关于她到底得到又失去了什么，是一种更复杂的生命激情的形式？还是不顾一切要回家的决心？又或许是一段古怪自私甜腻的爱情？无论怎样写都会吸引人，可人就是缺少完整叙事的能力，也丢失了情感对于逻辑的承托。

the plot is meh, nothing new but not completely boring. the sprites, bgs and cgs are most definitely ai generated images that got edited so they dont look completely off,,, i blame myself for not realizing this before purchasing. the english translation can also be weird sometimes, some grammatical mistakes here and there and female characters being refered to as "he". dont waste your money on this game

本作真是继承了致意一贯故弄玄虚的坏毛病，开场主角就失忆了，对一切都像个傻子一样，我只想说我失去的是记忆不是脑子啊，而且开场就不停的铺设定，设定比重超过了剧情本身，然后突然就草草收尾，我整个人都是啊？这就完了?当然，作者贴心的加入了看不到自己选项，重开后会清空的流程图指示，故事都讲不好的情况下真的不要搞得那么花里胡哨，视觉小说一切都是架构在文本上的啊，文本那么糟糕直接决定了作品上限，完全不推荐购买。 更多评测欢迎关注随遇而安评测组，期待你的加入 https://steamcommunity.com/groups/RH0915

+極優秀的遊戲氛圍，懸疑壓抑 +全程日語配音（部分很僵硬 +CG很美（有用AI輔助 +多結局 -劇情漏洞突兀點多 -故事很短 -感情線很淡 AVG小品遊戲，雖然劇情缺點多，但遊戲氛圍真的很棒，且沒有驚嚇及獵奇畫面，要多周目才能知道故事真相並開通最終結局，整體以一杯珍奶的價格來說很值得推薦了。 個人喜愛程度：★★★★☆

put me to sleep so many times I lost count and the fact that AI was used makes me not appreciate it even more. the most boring game I have ever played

Ужасный бред. Ну, симпатичная вампирша (реально фемдракула) хотя бы есть. Вообще женские персонажи чем-то напоминают Phenomeno, это плюс. Но в остальном полнейший хаос и идиотия.

Nah but sorry I would say big NO to AI generated art ( especially in money-making purpose ) , which is not hardly to recognize at when you see differences between characters at first scene . I don't know about story yet but such a shame cause I see games have well CG , even dubbed .
