Kuroyokami has finally been released.

Shipping on the internet tends to be free when you're downloading something.

But yeah, no English option and the game's interface kind of requires some Japanese knowledge. Even so, it's worth stumbling through.

[Naonao]

To encourage people to buy it, I suppose someone with knowledge could at least give a crash course on the interface(s) that you encounter in the game so that they can at least use the controls from the start without having to figure out by accident how to do things like save.. c.c;;

I bought it.. and I'm kinda stumbling right now. I'll check back in after I've figured something out.

[wasurenai]

Hmm, well...

How're these for starters?

[Naonao]

Awesome. I figured out Breast and Clit/Futa.. It's nice to see that though. :O It confirms and clarifies my curiosity,
but now to try to figure out each column's buttons and effects.

Now we can discuss game paths I suppose? I thought it was well worth paying for. The art's top notch for one. And the voice acting adds a bit even despite the language barrier..

The game seems to want you to pick one area and stick with it to really get past what I'll just call 'the bad ending' where she's simply sold off.

There must be combinations in the training if you're careful. I'm assuming that each column is.. ahhh.. Least to Most Severe (Top to Bottom). So.. I dunno.. It'll take a lot of clicking and experimenting with different pathways to see if there are more special endings.

[wasurenai]

I agree. It's on a level most eroge strive to achieve at a quarter of the price.

There seem to be at least ten "good" endings that focus on whatever you focused on, a number of "bad" endings, and several "special" endings based on certain combinations.

As an example, if you start the game with the girl as a non-virgin, and constantly have sex with her throughout the game, you'll wind up with a choice to continue training her in other fields, which ultimately lets you pick four of the five main combinations.

[Naonao]

ahaha. That's good to know as I was constantly avoiding that one since I thought it meant you lost a full week of training.

[Henjin]

I've been playing this game since it became available. I've managed to get 15/21 endings so far as well as 4/5 small circles unlocked (I believe the 5th world is the last). I hope the big one is unlocked by the 5 small ones. I'm stuck at the moment trying to figure out what combos are left. I have finished the game with getting training in all 5 categories. I don't know if it has to do with the order I did it or the options I used.

There's slight hints from the titles of the memory categories. The first three simply translate as "First,Second, and Third Stage", the fourth, "Loving Slave Stage", the fifth, "Broken Spirit Stage", and the last, "Ending Stage".

[wasurenai]

It may be possible to break the last lock by getting all of the emblems in one playthrough. That's what I've been attempting to do, but I can't quite get all of them, though I've narrowed it down to two left.

[Henjin]

I've been trying to figure out what each emblem is from. I've got all but the one on the left side, first row, second column. I swear I've got it before and it had to do something with her breasts. Here's the current list of which category the emblems come from.

Left Side

Bond | ? | Bond |
Penis | Breast | Bond |
Bond | Penis | Bond |

Right Side

Bond | Anal | Bond |
Anal | Breast | Penis |
Bond | Vagina | Choker* |

If you don't get her breasts or penis to a certain size before the training ends it is possible to miss out on the "Chounyu" and "Choune" emblems despite having the level 3 parts. It is also possible to miss the one vag. emblem. I'm not sure what the requirements are though.

*The choker is gained after you begin after you start the second stage of training. It doesn't matter what the first stage was.

As of right now I've got all but two endings. They are the two in the first column of the second page. I'm still missing the scenes from the 2nd and 3rd stages that are to the left of the blank box. Also there are 3 from the 2nd page of the loving slave stage that I can't get. They are: r3,c3; r4,c3; and r4,c4.

[SoylentOrange]

Would it be uncouth to ask for a CG set of just the breast path? I'm not terribly into futa or bondage or any of that, so 4/5ths of the game holds no interest to me. I'd love to see the BE, though...

[Henjin]

Well, I'm almost done. I've got all but the last ending. I'm assuming that the last scenes I need in the 2nd and 3rd stages are associated with that ending. I'm currently out of ideas at the moment. I checked the homepage and in the BBS the creator put some hints on how to play the game. I roughly understand what he said. However it sounds more like general hints for the game than hints on how to finish the game. On the plus side, assuming I read it right, he's going to put a full guide on the website soon. In a post on the 2nd he said that he's going to post something (which I believe is the guide) in a week.

There is a patch out now. All it does is increase the amount of save slots from 10 to 20. Below is a direct link to the file.

Can someone briefly translate these pages about the game:
