There’s also a shield power, if you want. Powers can be quite fun to use, although you’ll often just use them to burn things. Each armor also has different powers, with the best one in the game being locked to just one specific outfit. You obviously don’t get to see the armor much, but it has different stats, such as health and power charges.
Gather human and demon souls by killing enemies, and then use them to purchase both new weapons and armor. You can equip three at once and new, stronger weapons show up in the store as you progress. There are a bunch of different weapon types, including dual daggers, scythes, staves, hammers, a daggerbow, and swords.
Succubus is all about bringing your own stuff. There are also a couple of extra-hard leaderboard levels that you can play, although they have set loadouts, so you can’t bring your own stuff. It took me about eight hours and I didn’t reach 100% completion. And it’s pretty decent too! Levels can take upwards of 20 minutes to beat, so Succubus isn’t an extremely short game. There are also collectibles to find, including comic book pages that let you read an actual comic book made just for the game. That won’t make sense out of context.Įach level has three additional quests you can clear to make the area glow on the map. But you also destroy certain objects, defend statues, or maybe kick a specific enemy into a giant creature’s digestion pools. Yes, you often slaughter waves and waves of enemies, killing a couple of hundred per level, depending. Your objectives are actually quite varied. The game is divided into roughly 20 stages where your goal is to fight your way through and get to the exit portal. Once again, it’s completely in first person. Succubus lets you customize your character to your liking: face, body, hair, horns, and outfits. She has fun with the constant malice, at least. I expected the main character’s voice to be sultry, but she instead sounds more like Eartha Kitt in The Emperor’s New Groove. Succubus has admirable production value, and the cutscenes are typically well rendered and capably voiced. But the demon Baphomet shows up and threatens his reign, so it’s your job to just fucking lay waste to thousands of humans and demons for hours on end. Your succubus is in a relationship with Nimrod, and the two have a lot of power in hell. The story isn’t all that good, but it doesn’t matter that much. She can occasionally heal herself via sex, but this happens about three times in the entire game. The succubus in this game mostly nourishes herself by constantly and violently tearing apart literally everything she sees. Succubi are demons that nourish themselves by draining the life force of their victims through sexual congress. The main character isn’t even much a succubus, it seems. So, if you’re looking to buy the game to stare at the protagonist, you’re not going to be doing that as much as you’d imagine. Strangely, the game is exclusively in first person. The main character in Succubus is clearly meant to be ogled, there’s no way around that. As a warning, this is a review of a game that contains content many will find disturbing, and is intended only for mature audiences. While Succubus is quite possibly the most offensive game I think I’ve ever seen (and it does have its share of pornographic content), it’s a legitimate first-person melee game with surprisingly good graphics and an enormous amount of blood-soaked carnage. However, after seeing a press release that described it as publisher PlayWay’s most anticipated game yet, I decided that maybe I should give it a look before judging a book by its fixation with breasts. For a long while, I was under the impression that Succubus was less a game and more smut in a video game package.
