Eroge enthusiasts can rejoice as ILLGAMES, the studio that clearly follows in Illusion’s footsteps, has officially unveiled their highly anticipated game release, teased just a week ago.
Their upcoming project, titled サマバケ!すくらんぶる (Summer Vacation! Scramble), is set to launch on August 30th. ILLGAMES has hinted that the game serves as a spiritual successor or continuation of Illusion’s “Artificial Academy” series which revolved around a school setting and features a lot of character customization.
The gameplay revolves around simulating daily school life and social interactions. Players engage in activities such as attending classes, joining clubs, interacting with other students in both romantic and platonic ways, and participating in various events. The series emphasizes player freedom to shape relationships and guide the characters’ experiences.
Instead of following in the footsteps of Koikatsu, ILLGAMES’ new title “Summer Vacation! Scramble” aims to cater directly to fans eagerly anticipating a third installment of Artificial Academy.
This erotic simulation game immerses players in the carefree, sex-filled life of characters in a picturesque Japanese countryside town during a scorching summer vacation. Players can assume the roles of various town inhabitants, switching between characters to experience a dynamic sex life and interpersonal relationships from multiple perspectives, albeit with less depth than some fans might have hoped for.
According to official details, characters in the game exhibit autonomous behaviors, freely roaming the town and forming relationships with partners. Players can engage in part-time jobs, outings, and intimate events with their lovers. Developers highlight the intricate and unpredictable nature of these character relationships.
Continuing the tradition of previous ILLGAMES titles, players have the freedom to pursue romantic scenarios one-on-one or embark on a “harem” involving multiple women, molding the town to suit their desires. The game also features scenarios where all characters can become aroused, leading to chaotic streaking incidents.
True to Illusion ILLGAMES tradition, the title offers extensive customization options for personalities and outfits for each character. It features a diverse range of adult actions and sex positions, with new technology purportedly enhancing the “depiction of bodily fluids.”
In essence, Summer Vacation! Scramble maintains a familiar tone akin to past adult simulation titles such as the “Artificial Academy” series and “Koikatsu!”. It emphasizes extensive customization options and utilizes the advanced 3D graphics first showcased in their debut title “HoneyCome”.
The game’s primary appeal lies in its robust character creation tools, fostering a vibrant player community dedicated to crafting unique personas which affect character dialogue and interactions.
Facial structure, body sculpting, and meticulous adjustments such as nipples and pubic hair options remain extensive, complemented by a significant increase in choices for hairstyles, clothing styles, and accessories from their previous game.
A new feature allows for adjustments to chest and buttock sizes even when characters are clothed, enhancing the diversity of character expressions. Characters appear slimmer in clothing but fuller when undressed, adding to the realism and versatility of character design.
Additionally, the game offers compatibility with characters created in “HoneyCome,” expanding options for players and allowing for seamless integration of custom characters.
ILLGAMES’ PC adult life simulation game “サマバケ!すくらんぶる” is scheduled for release on August 30th and will be available on platforms like DLsite and FANZA, but those who can’t speak Japanese will likely have to wait a few more months for a translated release.
