STORY
Princess Knight Claris is the strongest warrior of the land, but she’s also a murderous psychopath! She made you beg for your life, then killed you anyway! Returning as a ghost, you use your powers to possess Claris and ruin her life!
There is no overarching story. Hunt monsters so you can afford drugs and corrupt Claris. Then, possess her body and turn her into a whore! Due to her strong will, you cannot force Claris into sex immediately. Start by showing off her panties, then make her pee herself. Eventually you can convince her to have sex with strangers!
The game makes good use of foreshadowing, but it’s always hard to believe. You learn about a prisoner who wants a blowjob, and in under an hour of gameplay Claris is on her knees for him. The hint about the coming sex scene was nice, but it was way too easy to achieve. Although there are multiple endings, they all happen quickly without buildup, like being sold into sex slavery. Just lose a battle and you unlock the scene.
The writing in this game is painfully predictable. The lack of an overarching story makes the story very forgettable.
GAMEPLAY
Princess Knight Claris was created with RPG Maker VX Ace. Move with the arrow keys. Press A to view your text log. Press F1 to change your control scheme.
You start out at level 99 and work to lower your level over time. This kills any normal sense of progression, especially because the alchemy system in-game relies on killing strong monsters. As you level down, you can’t kill them anymore, which makes it easy to ruin your playthrough.
The sex stats are minimal, only tracking creampies. Combat is nonexistent because you cannot control Claris until the end of the game. The world map is big, but it’s not very interactive. For example, you cannot have sex with your teacher until you do more dungeon grinding. This kills all sense of flow and tension in favor of extending playtime.
The game is too open-ended for its own good. You’re given no clue where to find various alchemy ingredients, so you’re forced to walk around and grind through enemies in the dungeons. Use these ingredients to corrupt Claris with drugs. It’s not a very engaging experience. I prefer leveling up over leveling down.
The game can be completed as a virgin or a whore, though neither option is very satisfying. Yes, Claris is a bitch, but she doesn’t deserve to be sold into slavery. A lack of satisfying routes make this title a slog to play through.
GRAPHICS
The art is drawn in Japanese anime style. It comes across as typical and cookie cutter, especially the characters’ hairs and side-profiles.
Each base CG is used about 5 times. The different scenarios include pregnancy, body writing, being overcome with lust, and more. No matter the excuse, reusing the same CG five times is completely unacceptable. It seems like the developer was following a formula, rather than giving in to the spark of creation.
There are ten outfits in total from the schoolgirl to the bunny girl. You can enjoy a number of appearances for Claris. Sadly, this means that certain outfits don’t get much attention. I would have loved more scenes as a bunny girl, but was left unsatisfied.
The entire game is crafted with stock assets from RPG Maker, making for a visually dull experience. Even the icons on the world map are stock assets! A few unique visuals would have made this game much more engaging.
NPCs comment on your clothing choices, which is cool. This rarely has consequences, but it’s a nice little feature.
VOICE ACTING AND SOUND EFFECTS (SFX)
Princess Knight Claris has no voice acting.
The sex sound effects are absolutely unique while the combat sound effects are generic stock assets. This creates a weird mix, where game-like RPG sounds play right before a scene of vivid vaginal penetration. This kind of stuff doesn’t fit a cohesive theme or style, which make this a ‘hit or miss’ experience.
MUSIC
The soundtrack has 25 stock tracks from the RPG Maker library. Maybe one or two are unique, but it’s impossible to tell because their digitally synthesized style makes them blend in completely with the stock library. A drum beat with electric tones does not make for a great experience. These tracks are not memorable at all.
HENTAI
There are 20 base CGs, spread across over 100 scenes. The artworks get repetitive fast, and will be harder to enjoy over time.
Sex positions include footjobs, blowjobs, missionary, and reverse cowgirl. Erotic dialogue is usually lackluster or generic with Claris saying “woe is me” as she is possessed and starts taking in cocks left, right, and center. Public humiliation and corruption are the main featured fetishes of the game. Though you play as a ghost who controls Claris’ actions, they swap roles as narrator often.
There are a ton of pissing scenes, which feels like false advertising when you look at the store page. Worse, these scenes are mandatory to get Claris corrupted enough to actually have sex. Mandatory water-sports is not good for player experience, because it’s a nasty niche fetish. The same applies to drugs like cocaine, which are a central part of the gameplay. This game is advertised as a hentai game, but instead it’s all piss and drugs!
There were good ideas here, none of them well executed. A good example is the scene where Claris becomes a free use whore for all her classmates. This scene would have been incredibly hot if there was some kind of reputation system. The scene ends and doesn’t affect gameplay at all, making for a huge disappointment. You feel like your actions lack consequences.
CONCLUDING WORDS
Princess Knight Claris has an uncommon spin on the RPG genre, starting you at level 99, and making you level down to corrupt the female protagonist. The gameplay and artworks are repetitive, but the setup is novel enough to keep things interesting. The sexual content is almost all piss and drugs. The game also uses RPG Maker stock music and visual assets, but barring those flaws, it’s worth a playthrough.
