Yarimono

Yarimono is a cute scifi adventure game that has players collecting monsters and training them to fight. There are over 150 unique monsters in the game, which players can find and collect with the goal of becoming a champion. As an added bonus to the game, your character’s partner has a unique move called, “Cheat Tackle” which allows them to one-shot any other opponent. On “easy” mode, there are no limits to how often this can be used. The game does a great job of guiding players through an initial tutorial. The tutorial both gets the story started and teaches players the basic of battling Yorimon. Although cheat tackle is available, players who want more of a challenge can simply choose not to.

Spicy Patch Available

The game as offered on Steam is fairly innocent. As players meet new trainers the most anyone will see are some suggestively dressed characters. There’s hints that more could happen, but nothing goes forward because the Steam version is completely safe for work. There’s a patch available that offers hentai artwork instead of merely stopping at some suggestive outfits.

This allows erotic scenes between the players and other trainers, but as of yet no interactions between players and their monsters. Without the patch, Yorimono largely amounts to a Pokemon remake with some serious storyline twists.

Surprisingly Good Storyline

With its cute pixel art and fairly simple gameplay, Yarimono looks like an almost boring game at first. Yet the story manages to carry the story forward. Yarimono opens with a legend about a sleeping white god who may one day bring “The Salvation of Light” to humanity.

The main character starts off unable to use his starlink, a coin used to control and communicate with Yarimon. Despite this, a yarimon climbs into his basement and chooses him. Together they defeat their childhood friend and agree to go on a trainer’s journey with her. This somehow lights up their starlink. The story develops from there, of an underdog character who was never able to win a single battle, to a capable fighter. What would otherwise be a normal storyline takes sudden, very serious twists through the dreams that appear as the story progresses.

The dreams can have some very disturbing elements, and really make you think. Without offering major spoilers, these dreams are what make the story so intriguing.

Rating: 9/10

Yarimono is a fantastic game for those who like games similar to Pokemon or Digimon. It’s one of those few rare games that have both a not safe for work option and a clean version as well. Even without the hentai patch, the game has an intriguing story and fun battling system.

Pros:

• Optional hentai patch
• Great storyline
• Cute graphics

Cons:

• Fairly short game

I had been meaning to check out Yarimono for a while now, but I finally got around to it, with the XXX patch of course, and it was a fun lewd RPG adventure that may or may not be a lewd version of a certain game where you “gotta catch them all” if you get what I am saying. If you are into that franchise, you will probably get a kick out of this. While it may not be perfect, I had a fun time with this, and I can see why it is a very popular lewd parody game. At the end of the day, if you think the art is cool, you may as well give this a try.

A Poke Filled Adventure

At this point, there are a million Pokémon porn games out there, so it can be hard for games like Yarimono to stand out from the crowd, as there are so many. With that being said, you do have to be into old Pokémon games, and I am talking the Ogs, such as Pokémon Blue on the original Game Boy and Pokémon Gold on the Game Boy Color. The game has a very old school feel to it, and if you grew up with those older games, you will certainly appreciate what the developer has done here.

An Underdog With Fight In His Heart

The actual story of Yarimono is ok, our MC is trying to be a monster hunter, but he kind of sucks, and the device he has to use does not work properly. Still, a monster befriends him, he defeats his friend in battle, and this starts him on his quest to be an epic trainer. The twist on things here is that when you beat a fellow monster trainer in this world, you get to have your wicked way with the loser! This is fun and all, but for the most part, this is a very Pokémon game like story that never truly gripped me. I was more in it for banging the trainers!

Sweet, But Kind Of Sexy

Being an old school Pokémon fan, Yarimono has an art style that I think is really neat. For the gameplay, we have that classic look, which I like, and there is a lot of imagination at play here with the over 100 monsters that there are. Some are clear parodies of Pokémon, but there are some original designs as well. Now the XXX content is pretty awesome as it has a rather unique art style where the characters are done in a very anime kind of way, but they look like characters people have actually drawn in a sketchbook. There are a decent number of sex scenes, and a lot of these monster trainer babes are hot, so seeing them get railed is a lot of fun.

Cheat To Win!

I am going to do you a solid right now and tell you to play Yarimono with the cheats on that make it pretty much impossible for you to lose! You may be thinking that this takes away all the challenge, and it does! However, the game is very unfair towards the player; you all know how, when you wander in the grass in Pokémon, you will probably get into a fight. Here, though, the enemies always seem to be way higher level than you, giving you next to no chance, and this happens right at the start of the game. The cheats may take away the challenge, but that is better than the frustration of having pretty much zero chance of being able to win any of the battles.

Pros:

• There are some good, creative monster designs
• I liked the Pokémon parody references
• The idea of losing trainers having to submit sexually is fun
• I thought the game looked great, a good mix of fun and sexy!

Cons:

• The difficulty without cheating is way, way too unfair
• A cheat option is good, but it takes away most of the challenge

Yarimono is an erotic RPG adventure that is a parody of the Pokemon series of games. Embark on an open world adventure and get into all sorts of adventures with your pocket monsters. Where will the road take you and how strange will your route be? Get for wins not only new monsters in your collection, but also the hearts of girls.

Pros of the game:

• Fight in full-fledged turn-based battles
• Animated erotic scenes
