Others - Completed - Urge to Molest Remake [v1.0] [South Tree]

Its the remake of a fairly old game at this point. I never quite warmed up to the original, nor to its sequel, so Im interested to see if this one will hold up.

Short summary of the story, dont worry too much about spoilers because its practically the same story as the original with an ending taped on at the end. You play as a random salaryman whos been reading way too many H manga and decide one day to violently molest a girl that's standing next to you while waiting for the bus. Yes, that is basically the story, as creepy as it is idiotic.

Gameplay is mostly just point and click. Molest that poor girl to submission because despite being in a cramped bus alongside familiar faces she would not scream, resist, or fuck it just move away at the next stop. Presumably because shes too embarassed to resist, but when a stranger undresses you while sticking his finger up your cat, youd think that'll be more than enough reasons to do something rather than sit there and get fucked. One point sticks out to me; it is possible to fail in this game i.e. get caught, but it seems a bit more lenient than the original because I barely gave a shit and somehow still manage not to get caught, whereas I seem to remember the original being far stricter.

Not getting caught in the first part, you are then invited to fuck the girl. H gameplay is also point and click, very much similar to the original and its sequel. There are at least two positions, and you get to fuck all three holes. There is at least VA, but no animations; you make love with lines drawn near your dick to suggest youre actually doing something.

Artwork is basic anime fodder. Very similar to the Urge to Molest IF. Functional is the best word to describe it. Seems more expressive than the last two games, or perhaps thats just me misremembering.


To Conclude...

I wasnt a fan of the OG, its sequel, but admitably the remake tickled my pleasant pouches more than Ive expected. Not sure why; maybe its the reduced difficulty, the better expressions, or maybe its the slightly better graphics.

That said, despite the 6 years since the last game, nothing really has changed in terms of mechanics, characterization, gameplay, or anything at all really. You'd think adding animations this time round would be a good idea, but the dev begs to differ. In fact, if you told me this was DLC to Urge to Molest IF, I wouldnt be able to tell the difference.

Recommended to fans of the two previous games. Nice little time waster that'll shave maybe 30 mins of your life off but not much else.

The point and click mechanics in this game are really fun and easy to use. Every time you click on something, it feels like you're actually interacting with the world instead of just going through the motions. Which makes the game feel more open and personal. Overall, this game makes every click feel important, different ending exists!

A LOT of untranslated text and not much content as a whole. Honestly I'm all for corrupting until they want it in a CNC theme but there's almost nothing here except for the heavy lean into the NC at the start. Maybe it's just not for me, glad they remade it though the old one was even worse.

pros:
- A lot more content than the old one
- Lots of ending, 3 Starting point
- Easy gameplay
cons:
- Some English translations are unfinished but its still enjoyable so far

still giving it a 5 since a lot has changed

SOUTH TREE DELIVERS ONCE AGAIN! All of their games follow exactly the same gameplay loop and they're designed similarly, however from the first game it was nice, and every new installment just improves on the foundation. I really like the sound design in all of them, artworks are extremely nice and get better and better. You can call this game just a 'scene viewer', and it actually is one, but out of all I've seen south tree makes them best. If you're fine with no animations and still pictures instead, I highly recommend playing this game! It's basic, but it REALLY gets the job done on what it wants to achieve. The only small gripe I can think of is the dialogue, and it's not that it's bad, it's just not that interactive.

Good artwork, short story but exceptional scene reuse, replayable, superb voice acting, just wanted to see more CG outside of what they've already had. Btw very good experience after all and I hope to see more excel products like this

For those who played the original:

It's a straight up improvement over the original. Voice acting is much better, art is more pleasant, clean and colourful, amount of actions is slightly higher from what i remember, there is a decent after story too. For completionists you also can hunt for achievements if you want for some reason. That said, it's the exact same game with even dialogue being pretty much the same, but if you enjoyed OG it's absolutely worth going through this again.

For those who didn't play the original:

It's a good small bus molestation scenario with 3 main scenes. You have a timer, you click various actions to molest in various ways, actions take time. Atmosphere is really good, voice acting is good, essense and spirit of molesting are done considerably well in here for such a short game. It's absolutely worth a try for sure if you are into this genre.


My main negative is the same in the original however, in my opinion there is very little reactivity in Aki's dialogues. For most contextual actions you have only one line, and it doesn't change regardless of what we did before or after (whether you came before, made her cum, were you a bit more considerate or just ram it in, are you a kisser or not, did you caress her gently or just focused on carnal side, all of that doesn't change anything), and this is the main bummer on the atmosphere. If only Aki was reactive to whatever you do to her and how you treat her, being more malleable according to what you do, i would likely consider giving it 5 stars because what it wants this game does close to perfect. But lack of reactivity is such a big detractor from the atmosphere and the act itself that i just can't give it 5.


That said the difference between the original and remake is night and day, developer absolutely did a good job and it's obvious how much more experience he's got now. I would prefer a new game instead of a remake, but it is what it is.

Edit: Achievements are necessary for progression actually and there is a bit more progression in relashionship compared to OG (the end result is her becoming complete nympho), but the scenes are essentially the same, just with different context. And there is a proper conclusion to the story as well, which is nice.
