As a result, there's a sizeable amount of optional text, depending on who you include in your team, and in a typical playthrough you'll see only a small fraction of it. Their remarks will often trigger responses from others in your team, leading to a sense of persistent characterization you don't often see in games with this many characters. Let me repeat: all 53 characters appear to have lines in all dungeon events (those that join later obviously have no lines in earlier events). Yomi and Ceri can capture and recruit most of the enemies and characters they encounter, and every playable character in the current team of six will chime in during all the dungeon events.

While Yomi is technically the protagonist, much of the early game focuses on Ceri, and Yomi and Ceri end up with equal attention and development. The game's saving grace in the story department is that while the setting and plot development are lacking, Sakura Dungeon does succeed in characterizing a large cast of characters. We do eventually get passing mention as to why Ceri was there and why and how Yomi was sealed, but this is certainly not a story-driven experience where finding out what happens next is one of the main hooks. As is typical with dungeon crawlers, the setting is left underdeveloped and all you get is a basic excuse to set up the dungeon crawling. That's the story concept and the entire main story fits neatly within those very narrow confines. Ceri must confront the dozens of monster girl clans as she delves deeper and deeper into this mysterious dungeon and helps Yomi reclaim her lost power. Yomi orders Ceri to venture into the dungeon that was once her's and depose the lord who took over in Yomi's absence. Yomi easily prevails and uses her remaining power to bind Ceri as her servant. One day the adventurer Ceri stumbles on her chambers and inadvertently releases her. Yomi, ancient fox spirit and lord of the local dungeon, has slumbered for hundreds of years after being sealed by a band of adventurers.

If you don't like dungeon crawlers, Sakura Dungeon won't change your mind. I also didn't find the erotic content very erotic, but that could be a matter of taste. The game's most glaring weakness is that the setting is underdeveloped and we don't feel a sense of progress through an overarching narrative, which is a common weakness in dungeon crawlers. Sakura Dungeon manages to competently execute most of the aspects of a dungeon crawler: combat, level design, character and monster variety, characterization, optional challenge content.

Winged Cloud has defied all expectations and released a superior indie gameplay eroge with professional production values. I expected Sakura Dungeon to be a horrible mess with non-functional gameplay, fanfic-level writing, and pretty but sparse art which would be the sole selling point. All of the ingredients for disaster were assembled: an indie developer with a long pedigree of shovelware experimenting with their first gameplay title (no, Sakura Clicker doesn't count) and being tossed between publishers Sekai Project and MangaGamer like a bad Christmas fruitcake. I had very low expectations for Sakura Dungeon.

I covered Sakura Swim Club merely to promote Winged Cloud's experiment with free Steam uncensor patches. The first 60 seconds of Sakura Swim Club only confirmed to me what others had said about the dreadfully bland writing: the same thought 'I'm tired and don't want to get up' was simply repeated over and over. Their games are like candy bars: they're cheap, highly visible to consumers, and they have no lasting value. Winged Cloud has a reputation for visual novels with pretty art that conceals poor amateur writing and an utter lack of ambition. Tags: female protagonist, girls-love, consensual sex only
