So long story short Isekai Demon Waifu shut down earlier this week. I had been playing that over 3 years and had become the #1 player on my server (in fact I was the only player logging in on a regular basis for the past 6 months or so) and was basically a big shot. I had unlocked most of the girls, had a huge amount of resources, and got a top 10 rank on any of the cross-server events I bothered to take part in.
But besides all of that, it was the harem simulation that I loved the most. The sheer opulence of the demon king's palace. The roman columns and towering spires, the velvet drapes and gold filigree on the walls, the cushioned seats and the dozens and dozens of beautiful monster girls who were happy to see you. Your harem had succubi, bear girls, cat girls, eldritch horror girls with tentacles, a doppleganger who could change their form, a slime girl, ninja girls, assassins. They all had a normal animation, a dating animation, a hot tub animation, and a animation when you bed them and sleep together. It played dramatic organ music at the main screen and then this classy harpsichord music when you visit the harem. It was all opulent, high class, had a great presentation to make you feel rich and important. I loved it.
They have a new game they wanted us to all move over to, Isekai Slow Life. But it looks degrading in comparison. You start out as a mushroom person living on a farm and have to evolve to even become human. It lost the classy ambience, the palace, the extravagant everything that IDW had. Not to mention, I was attached to all the monster girls in IDW and they aren't in Slow Life.
To top it all off, both are gacha games. I must have spent close to $1k in IDW over the years I played it, buying boosts, new characters, new outfits, and other junk. I'm not excited to start playing a new gacha game that will require a similar cash investment to get where I was before, even if I could get where I was before. Like I said, Slow Life doesn't have the same feel as IDW had.
Is there anything comparable on itch? A high class, opulent harem simulator full of succubi and monster girls, with nice animations, but maybe isn't a gacha game? That I can play on android?
I know it's a lot to ask. I have a sneaking suspicion I'm just tough out of luck.
