Hello, this is Jung Hyung-mo

The game I'll be reviewing today is Volcano Princess and,

I was so immersed in playing it that 7 hours just vanished...

Basic Game Info

🎮 Game Title : Volcano Princess

❤ Game Genre : Raising Simulation / RPG

🧭 Release Date : 2023.12.12

💰 Price : 12,500

🏦 Store Link : Volcano Princess | STOVE Store

It was my first time playing a raising simulation game, so I was worried it might be difficult,

but thanks to the intuitive interface, I played it without any issues.

Shall we get started?

My daughter's name follows my surname, "Jung"

Since I'm going to raise her to be a sturdy warrior, I added "Tu-gwang"

to make it "Jung Tu-gwang"...

Grow up healthy...

My name is "Jung Hyung-mo" ...

I'll make you happier than anyone else, honey...

Basically, the game starts when the daughter is five years old.

I heard the newborn stage is hell, so I'm relieved...

A friend named Liri seems to be a pet bird kept at home, and she acts as a guide.

Also, she's very cute.

I chose to be the kind of dad who takes care of her affectionately, haha.

This is outside the house; you can get the latest information through the newspaper like this.

I'm going to go see my daughter. Hahaha
She's cute...
You can increase your favorability by talking to your daughter, and you can do it once each.
The interface at the bottom left shows stats, and
since I'm going to raise my daughter as a warrior, Stamina and Strength are what I'll focus on. Hehehe

Imagination

Also, every time you perform an action, you gain stats and consume action energy.

So cute!!

If you click on the schedule, you can take a curriculum like this,

and if you fill the learning progress to 100%, you get each stat. 

Since I'm going to raise Strength, I'll go with health exercise.

Aren't the drawings also too cute? Hahaha

Once you finish the schedule, it moves to the next month, showing your achievements,

and you can save at this time. (Auto-save is also available)

Also, a map is added, so you can now go outside the house and engage in activities.

There are festivals in June and October, so you can't go out separately.

I came to a restaurant to have a meal with my daughter,

and the cute designs and character designs are so adorable, hahahahaha.

Eating can restore mood and action energy. But it costs money.

Dad will earn a lot...

Through cooking, you can also  increase action energy, mood, and even stats.

It's already June and festival season, so I'll go to the festival with my daughter!

Gifts are always a must

After the festival...

As time passes...

My daughter is already 12 years old...

Time really flies...

My daughter secretly submitted an application to the Knight Academy...

Dad will support whatever your dream is, haha.

ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ

My daughter has grown up so much.

Thank you... Just grow up healthy.

There are a few things added to the adolescent interface,

you can increase stats through the wardrobe and decorations,

and you can increase stats further through the master curriculum (but it costs money).

Also, love letters arrive; sometimes just letters, and sometimes with gifts.

The places you can go through the map increase, and accordingly, the content you can enjoy also increases!

I came to explore for a taste.

The atmosphere is unusual...

Exploration is turn-based, and you can take up to two companions.

Also, when you walk around the village, you can talk like this; talking or giving gifts can be done without cost,

but asking questions, challenging, and dating consume patience. You are given 3 patience points.

NPCs are also divided into those you can build favorability with and extra NPCs.

Before I knew it, it was the day of admission to the Knight Academy 

You have to choose a lord to serve,

simply put, Handel -> Might, Royal -> Charm, Brian -> Intelligence, I think it's easy to think of it that way.

Of course, I...Might   

I chose the Handel family.

Quests are given depending on the lord you serve,

I recommend you see this while playing.

Letters and gifts sometimes come to friends with whom you've built favorability,

and the sight of the two children talking through letters is very cute, haha.

I also get jobs every time, and they say the daughter's evaluation changes depending on the job.

Dad will work hard!!

.

.

.

As time passed like that,

it was time for my daughter to have her coming-of-age ceremony...

I felt like I was going to cry at this moment...

You've grown up beautifully, my daughter...

Now it's time for my adult daughter to choose her career path.

My daughter hopes to become a righteous person who helps the weak by becoming stronger.

You've really grown up well...

Even as I write this, tears are welling up, kyaaaaaa

Dad will be your dad forever too!!!!!!!!!!!

I wonder if my daughter is doing well...

A letter has arrived!

So cute ㅠㅠ

There are several pages, but I'll keep this to myself!! Hahaha

My daughter who has become a reliable and beautiful hero,

I'll support your future endeavors.

What?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

Yes  if my daughter is happy... I will let her go...

"Jung Tu-gwang"hoping you are happy wherever you are,

I'll end the review... ㅠㅠ

Sniff, the lingering feeling still hasn't faded...

Actually, I didn't know Rebecca would become her partner,

Rebecca is the lord of the Handel family.

So I just did a lot of favorability building to look good... I didn't know we would get married...

As long as my daughter is happy, what's the problem? Hahahahahaha

Besides what I wrote in the review, there are various contents and foreshadowing,

I haven't interpreted this part yet, so I'll have to go play again lol

The best part was

the character designs were all excellent, and the cutscenes during events were also very cute.

I hope you all play it and leave a review, thank you. Hehe

That's it for the review, this was Jung Hyung-mo!!

I'll be back with character live-action content later

Bye~

Content Review

Q. Why did you describe it as 'a story like a fairy tale'?

The protagonists act childishly at first, but their gradual maturation gives the feeling of a story unfolding like one in a fairy tale.

It well expressed the events that occur as young children grow into adventurers, and the way it handled content that could have easily become childish by framing it as a process of maturation allowed me to feel the same emotions as when reading a fairy tale book.

That is why I described it as 'a story like a fairy tale'.

Q. What was your first impression of this game?

I was surprised by the detail, to the point where I couldn't help but say that the dot graphics were well-expressed. 

It was impressive that they included detailed direction not only for the protagonist and supporting characters but also for NPC characters, and that all characters appearing in the story were fully voiced, making the game even more immersive.

<The dubbing and direction of not only the playable characters but also various supporting characters were expressed attractively!>

The fact that the artistic aspects were well-integrated into the story became the driving force that kept me playing until the end.

Q. Were there any disappointing points?

- The combat was a bit disappointing.
This game has a counter system, but it's not just something I can use; the enemies can use it too. 

So, every time an enemy's counter occurred and canceled my attack just as I was about to use a powerful move, it built up stress,

and this became a reason for having to retry multiple times.

<Since enemies can also use the counter system, the difficulty increased, making it challenging.>

- The growth balancing was disappointing.
Basically, since you follow a linear storyline, growth is centered around main quests.

However, the recommended level for quests is set relatively high, so I experienced game overs a few times. 

If you focus on the game, you can clear it by the skin of your teeth, but it was disappointing that it induced farming through side quests to some extent for growth.

This is because, due to the nature of SRPGs, every character acts one by one, so it inevitably takes a lot of time.

So, it was disappointing because it seemed to be structured in a way where you couldn't clear the main quest if you didn't grow well or if you had an inefficient party.

I think the game could have been enjoyed more if the growth balance had been designed more meticulously.

Q. Nevertheless, how would you like to introduce this game?

I would like to introduce it as a game worth recommending if you have a taste for dot graphics. 

Since the art and story lead the game well, I would say that as long as your graphic preferences match, you will be able to reach the ending.

Because it is a game that brings out immersion well with detailed direction, I think those who prefer well-made games should also keep an eye on it.

This concludes the review of 《Stardust: Star and Witch》.

I will return with a good game in the next review as well.

Thank you!

Hello, this is Jeong Hyeong-mo!

It's nothing else, but after writing a review for Volcano Daughter, the characters' appearances lingered in my mind,

so I created some live-action images with my fan heart.

I tried to compose various scenes by bringing out the atmosphere of the game and the characteristics of each character as much as possible!

No time to hesitate!!

Let's go!

Our daughter when she was a baby

I also created the dad character as a character in the game

(Not me lol)

Our daughter during her puberty

Besides that I also made the other characters

Rebecca

Rebecca unmasked version

Gwenis

Claude

Hackett

Zed

Nina

Mona

Ron

Craig

Ken

Which character do you like the most?

Please leave it in the comments~

  

This was Stove Crew Jeong Hyeong-mo~

This game is really well done

No joking, its scary how well this is done.


Theres something called "dark psychology" basically its the study on how to manipulate/control human behavior.


Gacha games, like E7, are know for using this kind of... science, with kind of well known patterns, some obvious like the slot machine effect, FOMO or powercreep, or others a bit subtle like currency obfuscation. Lets not forget that one of the things a gacha game wants the most its your time, even in a developers note video they blatantly admited they designed E7 with that in mind, I think it was when quick battling was first introduced.


So, what about this game?


Look, I can understand all the skills that the boss have (like mines following you, drowning the screen, shooting, getting faster if its near you or even teleporting while using certain skills or directly shooting and destroying part of your progress) but the following are the things that are the problem:

- You lose while reaching 80+ progress: I decided to leave this while reaching 88%-87% quite a few times in the Rohana pic, in more or less hour and a half (consuming more time in the game while trying, one of the dark patterns, although I must admit I include reading the story up to until Aube starts touching Birgitta with the "applying oil" pretext, E7 stories used to be interesting, but Im not reading this, and reaching 90% in Aube pic.)

- One thing I learned while playing gachas its to spend the currency asap in what I want, before wasting it in a stupid way, in my case its to refresh the secret shop for pulls, the stupid way... paying 80 skystones out of frustration, probably you can think its stupid to complain about wasting those skystones if "its your decision", the problem its, while suffering from stress, people can act without thinking for a couple seconds... more than enough time to press "continue". So yeah, good thing I didnt had skystones at hand, I would had regretted those two or tree seconds after loosing too many times and... "almost getting it" yep an other dark patter: "next time for sure, I was so close".

-"Hidden rewards": You get the basic reward with 80% of progress (really easy once you get how to move) buuut for the ""amazing"" reward you need 90%, and I must remember you... you lose once you reach 80% + so... you couldnt get it? sure just give us almost 3 times of the skystones you got before? you dont have it dear customer? go to shop, but quickly these rewards will expire in a few weeks. I must be wrong in this one, but this pics arent going to the story journal? usually I tried to keep up with it, but personally Im not loosing anymore time with this.

-""Amazing rewards"": look... I feel a bit tired of oversexualised gooner designs, look what they did with Illinav's skin... from a warrior to pole dancing, but we are talking about this game so... what about the reward? finally you got it, despite wasting hours, skystones or both. what did you get? more skystones so you can use them? a piece of equipment? maybe a couple pulls?... nope... you get a pic of Auble worried because her swimsuit its to small or Rohanna in a pose that couldve used in a NSFW game, imagine you playing while someone enters in a room and see the screen, like Fenne's screams...  this game doesnt let minors to play? they should rate this +18 in the appstores, like an other user said earlier.  I really miss then end of chapter 1 and the beggining of chapter 2, while the only thing we knew about Straze was about that he was the black knight that was causing troubles in the "rotten land" (Cidonnia's name back then)

-You are giving too much credit: "Cant believe you wasted time writing this crap and that I lost time reading this, this game is amazing/bad (choose one) and dont play if you dont want to" One of the most dangerous people are the ones who can manipulate you without you even suspecting it, and of course, I gave up in this, not wasting my time in gooner things.

-I didnt mentioned mort/crozet pics because I didnt think they are worth mentioning up until now, I must admit I chuckled when I saw them the first time, but theres a limit on how a joke can be funny until it becomes annoying.

 

tldr: despite E7 still having the reputation of being f2p friendly they still have quite predatory habits, and little by little they show them. Dont forget they tried to hide hero's skills behind imprints a while ago, or how they made the mystic rotations last 3 weeks instead of 4. Personally I wont be playing anymore, the time vs rewards dont worth it to me, if you like it, go ahead, just remember that if the event its "sucessfull" they will keep with this behavior, someone remembers the rhythm game from last couple years?



As funny fact, I tried CZN... they implemented the imprint system there lol

I did the mini game. It’s not hard. Just kill the boss and you get an easy 90%

I haven’t played the mini game yet, however, I have played this game since 2019.


-Firstly, you’re forgetting how inconsistent the ML5 release schedule was for the first two years. Sometimes it was 5 weeks, sometimes 8, 7, 4, 3, it was random. In 2020 it was standardized to one every 6 weeks. That was 6 years ago.


-Second, E7 has been a gooner game since day 1. Old Mercedes s3, Yuna s3,F Maya, Luna, R&L, the list goes on. It didn’t suddenly become one.


-fourth, the Ily skin isn’t great. If they really wanted a bunny girl there were better picks, her base art is also good so idk why they chose her.


Fifth, I really don’t understand why you chose to criticize 4 out of the 52 calendar weeks of E7 content when there’s so many other more pressing problems than our yearly month of fanservice.


New gear sets and otherworldly breach is a big one. They’ve been giving us new gear sets quite often and they design new heroes around those sets, some more blatant than others.

This wouldn’t be a big issue if you could choose what sets to farm from breach instead of being forced to do rift. Rift feels way worse these days
