STORY
Sahnia trained under the great mage Gorcoss until he died of old age. Gorcoss had defeated and humiliated the demon king in the past. Unable to get his revenge, the demon king chooses to target Sahnia instead.
The forest is covered in an evil miasma! The animals she called friends and the land she called home has been ruined! It’s up to Sahnia to restore the magic gems around the forest and eliminate the miasma!
Using her holy powers, Sahnia is able to undo the miasma and restore the forest back to normal. The game ends with Sahnia intent on protecting the forest and its inhabitants for the rest of her days. It’s not Shakespeare, but the classic “good versus evil” theme was enjoyable all the same. There are no NPCs, towns, or party members. This is a gameplay-focused experience.
GAMEPLAY
The game was created in RPG Maker VX Ace. Rather than standard turn-based combat, all battles are automated here. Simply walk into enemies to deal damage. Press CTRL to skip text. Press A, S, or D for healing. Press W to take magic power from the stone.
Defeating enemies earns you experience points and gold. While level-ups are nice, the real focus of the game is on the gold. This is spent to increase whichever stats you desire. I chose to increase my health points early on, just in case the bosses tried to one-shot me.
Due to the poisonous fog in the forest, Sahnia must carry a magic stone for protection. This stone only lasts until its charge runs out, then you have to replenish it at the player home. Spend gold to upgrade the charge capacity and spend a longer period of time in the forest.
The charge placed in the magic stone can be converted into your own magic when you need to heal. Naturally, this will decrease the amount of time you can spend in the forest. Be careful to manage your stats in such a way as to maximize your chance of survival.
Gold can also be spent on passive skills like magic recovery or a chance to evade attacks. In the pause menu, players can set custom teleportation points and spend 50MP to teleport there. This is great for a quick escape if your magic stone is weakening. In spite of this deep and interesting system, the game is only an hour long! I felt blue-balled, like there was so much potential left untapped.
GRAPHICS
The art is drawn in the anime style. Since Sahnia is the only character in the game, the developer put great emphasis on making each scene detailed and unique. For example, her hair gets ruffled into a different position depending on her position during sex scenes.
Sahnia ‘s character design is absolutely gorgeous. Her calming blue clothes match her eyes, and her silver hair is a great compliment to her white gloves and blouse. Best of all, the details like her ears and hands are masterfully done to appear realistic while still fitting within the anime style.
There are 12 CGs total, one for each scene. Unlike previous works by this developer, this game makes great use of lighting and perspective. When she’s underneath someone, their shadow is cast over her body. But in another scene, the lava underneath her is a light source, drawn brightly to create a very flashy scene.
While the game makes heavy use of stock assets, little details like Sahnia’s unique sprite make it all seem super cute. Since she wears gloves, her sprite reflects that with her arms cloaked in white. And since her hair is kept as loose pigtails, her sprite reflects the same. This is character design done right! And it’s especially important since you spend most of the game ramming yourself into other icons on-screen.
VOICE ACTING AND SOUND EFFECTS (SFX)
Priestess Sahnia has no voice acting.
All audio is stock assets from the RPG Maker library. Thankfully the game is short, so it never gets repetitive or boring.
MUSIC
The soundtrack includes 12 songs in total, all originating from the stock RPG Maker library. The digitally synthesized violins and such do get tiresome after a while, but they fulfill their purpose in the story. After all, the boss battles really do feel like awesome final conflicts! As long as you’re unfamiliar with the music, it serves its purpose really well.
HENTAI
There are 12 scenes total. Three are normal sex, but the rest are tentacles and other monstrous creatures. If you’re looking for loving sex in the cowgirl position, you’ve come to the wrong fuck-joint.
Sex scenes are unlocked by losing in battle. Alternatively, beating the game unlocks the recollection room and all its scenes. The three normal scenes are orc sex, impregnation by the antagonist, and becoming a slave of the demon king. I wish there was more of this instead of the borderline vore content in some scenes.
Bondage and domination are key fetishes here. Dialogue is often limited, keeping the focus on Sahnia’s despair. To be honest, the lack of traditional positions like my favorite, the prone-bone, was a real let down for me. We never actually get a good look at Sahnia’s ass and that’s a travesty to me. Hentai game developers need to understand this, because it’s very important: Ass is God. I say it again; ass is God.
CONCLUDING WORDS
Priestess Sahnia is a simple Japanese adult game focused on running into enemies to do damage. It can be played one-handed, as an hour-long experience to chill out and get some easy level-ups. If it had more human sex, it would be among my favorites in the genre.
Download Priestess Sahnia. If you enjoyed the relaxed gameplay experience, check out its spiritual predecessor, Civilian Justice League 1.
