Come on Fantasy baby! Review

They enter your lives quickly and as your ‘property’ they agree to help you earn money, since you have a large debt. Some are more agreeable than others. Unfortunately all of the women are bad at what they claim to do, so you turn them into streamers.

The five admirers are actually exceptionally well balanced. Jiyoung Han is a subservient maid, who is terrible at cleaning. At the other end of the scale is Jeongwon Choi, a bossy type who expects you to be her slave but failed her business. Then you have the highly aggressive Eunha Gong, who behaves like a horny man around women. Compare her to Namju Gang, who is initially shy and unable to do her job as a teacher. And right in the middle you have Jeonghyeon Yoon who is the most level-headed of all but also a terrible chef. The personalities are interesting and most show character growth and a balance of affection. Some scenes explain why characters are like how they are, and a few of the actresses are good (Gong, Han, and Yoon).

After a short intro, they become streamers and you guide them. Here is when the game turns into a bit of an RPG. You’re presented with a 2D cityscape with a few points of interest (home, studio, gym, city, hospital etc.). After you watch a stream, the next step might mean going to the hospital or dance studio. This is actually a really clever and fun way to integrate locations with admirers. Meeting up will earn you affinity as usual, if you pick the right choices. The downside is that you only really have enough movement ‘points’ to max out two admirers. If you give them all some attention, you’ll miss out on endings and scenes.

Which brings me to the first problem, the progression system seems unreliable. Positive affinity choices sometimes did not register properly after restarting scenes. But, crucially, after you’ve seen all scenes for one admirer via the cityscape, you are completely locked out of seeing them ever again. And a huge portion of the affection is gained here, so if you picked low affinity choices you’ll be completely locked out of endings / routes. I had to delete my save files completely, twice, just to see all the paths. Fortunately you can fast forward through nearly all videos, even if you have not seen them before.

The most glaring issue is the atrocious audio, which almost made me refund this game in the first two minutes. It seems to use both ADR (automatic dialogue replacement) and live audio, but almost none of it is even close to being synchronized—maybe 5% of the audio actually matches, the rest is like 1-2 seconds behind or ahead. This is infuriating, but also made worse by awful changes in volume for character voices. The audio is just straight up garbage and there is no excuse for it.

Come on Fantasy baby! is far more lewd than other games in the genre, at least that is with the Epic store version. There are a few scenes that simulate sex acts, although you don’t actually see any nudity, just a vague representation (e.g. an admirer enjoying herself in the mirror). There are gratuitous shots as well, including underwear, stockings, BDSM and more.  Video quality is poor, however, blurry and low res. And strangely it uses filters on the actresses faces (e.g. lipstick) which makes things worse.
