Porn Star Harem Review

I was solicited for Porn Star Harem while playing Hentai Heroes (HH). Like, HH it will take up quite a bit of time to work your way through the campaign / acquire new harem girls / level them up / enter contests for money or inventory items / and complete missions for money / Gold / experience / gems

When you first access the site, you'll complete a "mission." With the game being resource-management based, "all you do" is click on a Next button in the lower-right hand corner. After completing your initial mission, then you'll be brought to The Town overlay. Oh -- one thing I didn't realize for at least a week: on game-play screens, in the lower center of the screen is an .. open plus-sign, and an eyeball. If you click on the eyeball, the top of the screen showing game information is "hidden." If you click on the open plus-sign, the image displayed goes to full screen..

At the top of the screen is ALWAYS displayed your level; the number of breaths you have (and your max), the number of energy units you have (and your max), and the number of Gold you have. You refresh a breath every 7.5 minutes. As you "level up," you also earn 10 breaths per level. You refresh an energy point every 30 minutes. Once you enable Sex God Path, you refresh oil every 2.5 hours. All of these occur whether you are on-line and "in the game," or not. (Same thing with the countdown for your Harem Girls' earnings.)

Gold can be used to "buy" more breaths or energy. Or, speed things along (e.g., refresh market items, perform 10 challenges in the time span of just one, etc.). Gold once used, is difficult to acquire. You can earn them it clicking through on various solicitations that appear PER DAY / 24-hour period in the upper-right hand corner of the Town screen. You can also earn 150 Gold by completing all of the Missions (under Activities) for the day / 24-hour period.

Additionally, there is a green backpack. This will display all of your resources -- also including gems and other items you earn through Challenges. (Gems will be used later, to "Awaken" your harem girls after they accumulate 250 levels of Experience.) Next to that are three stars, increasing in size from the top of the icon to the bottom. This will show you the Blessings for the day. Various player or harem girl attributes will receive bonuses each day; they rotate / cycle. Lastly, the icon with three horizontal bars is a Main Menu. Basically this mimics the Town layout, but just with text on a solid-color background.

And .. I suppose here is a good time to comment on this "free" game. Completing the game can test the player's patience. Once you use your resources, if you want to continue playing, if you click on the "+" sign by the Gold, it will bring you to a screen where you can purchase them (and other resources) for ACTUAL CASH. You can make one-time purchases, one that will last a month - and give you resources each day, etc.  

The Town overlay is user-friendly / easy to use. Adventure takes you to where you left off in the campaign / story. If you click on Adventure itself, it will take you to the "world" map, showing you all of the Towns, and how far along you are in the campaign. As you complete a Mission within the Town, a status bar will be displayed. This will give you an idea of how far along you are / if you want to use Gold for breaths to finish it up, if you are close. Also, in the lower-right hand corner of each Town's map, is a picture of the Pornstar(s) in that Town for you to add to your harem. You have to win Challenges. Each Challenge uses one of your units of Energy. Be wary, some Missions include Challenges within them. So, always keep one or two handy. NOTE: after a game-determined number of Challenges and wins, you will add a new Harem Girl.

In the lower-center of the Town screen are two icons: an eye, and a pencil. The eye will toggle on-and-off whether you want a Harem Girl displayed on the Town screen. The pencil will enable you to cycle through your Harem Girls, and the avatar associated with their levels. You then hit the Validate button when you are happy with your selection. NOTE: as you level-up your Harem girl, more clothes come off with each level. 

Next to the word Adventure is a greater-than sign with a vertical bar. This will take you specifically to where you last left off. There is also what looks like an old ivory scroll icon. This will take you to "side quests."  

Harem will take you to a screen where you can view the capabilities and earning power of each girl. Harem girls earn you multiples of their value per segment of time, as they are leveled up with Affection points. They can also be leveled up in .. intelligence via Experience points. However, not only do you need to buy Gifts (for Affection points) or Books (for Experience points) -- once the girl is leveled up, you then need to finance the finalization of her leveling up with available money. This is for Affection. And, each time a girl is leveled up, the more expensive it is to finalize her. Each harem girl's "earning power" is shown on the right margin, towards the middle of the screen. Be wary of this; not all girls earn the same. Some are quite low. For Experience, the harem girls level up .. "independently" -- up to Level 250. At that point, she will be deemed "Awakened." For the transformation, gems will be needed. The type / color of gem will vary. You can see how many of each color you've earned on the Town screen, in the green backpack in the upper-right of the screen. 

Activities have a menu for daily goals, missions, and contests. For every two daily goals you accomplish, you'll earn random rewards. For each mission, what you earn can vary. My initial ones were money. The following day were Gold. And, ever since, it is a combination of experience points, and gems. If you accomplish all of them within a 24-hour period, you will be awarded a bonus of 150 Gold. Contests are like the others, from the Town screen. You and your Harem will be displayed, with their attributes and total power level. Three other players and their levels, and their Harem power will be displayed. You can challenge one of the three, and what you can win is displayed above the Challenge box. 

Leagues is a Leaderboard (where you can also initiate a challenge). 

The market is where you can buy gifts and books for your harem members. You can also buy Equipment or Boosters. There will be nine items available for purchase under each type of Inventory. Each Market Menu refreshes every six hours. Or, you can pay 42 Gold to refresh the items real-time. Oh; you can also Sell items (perhaps you won something you don't need). But -- when you do, you only earn 10 cents on the dollar! 

Night Club is kind of like a slot machine. Each time you play, you'll earn an Inventory Item, possibly also including Equipment, or a Booster. If you play a 10x "chance," you also have a chance to earn another harem girl. Sex God Path is a contest that uses oil, and you can win either "regular" inventory items or "god like" ones, with significant Experience or Affection points. 

Additionally, on the Town screen, on the right will be a Treasure Chest. This will be another link to purchase Gold combined with other resources. The circle indicates the number of options (!) available to you. Lastly, in the lower-right of the screen will be what looks like a target on a tablet. This will also take you to a screen where you purchase Gold combined with other resources, via a monthly subscription (get resources on a daily basis for the month). 

The navigation is straight-forward. Although I didn't realize at first that the daily solicitations were ONLY viewable / offered via The Town view. Each time you log-on within a 24-hour period, you'll be shown a box with "daily news." You'll click-thru / close this by clicking in the upper-right hand corner, and it will bring you to another news page consisting of a 2-row by 3-box additional window. You can view other recent news items, here. The "news summary" can also be accessed from The Town screen, in the lower-right hand corner, via what looks like a mailbox. Don't "dismiss" these; some of the pictures are good! 

Also: Pornstar Harem is a Kinkoid developed game. The solicitations mentioned most of the time will take you to other Kinkoid harem-style games. You can use your Pornstar Harem log-on for these other sites. BUT, each one "stands alone." You can't .. siphon resources from one game to use in a different one. 

There are some things I didn't like. One is when you level-up your Harem Girls. The game ONLY allows you to "Unequip All." I believe that will remove ALL Experience and Affection for every Harem Girl. You should have the option of unequipping one girl. Maybe limit that ability to once per week?

Also, for quite a long time I didn't realize that you not only need to buy Equipment and Boosters -- but, you also then need to use the horizontal menu bar to select which ones in Inventory you will use. One nice feature is if you have .. "competing" items in Inventory, the game / system will display in green (better) or red (worse) font what the impact will be on you, if you make the change. Same thing if you're considering buying something from the Market.

Additionally, there are no instructions on how to .. set your Team, for Challenges. After some trial-and-error, I believe players will want to: 1) have your highest powered girl in the center, and then 2) "fill out" your team from 10:30 through 7:30, around the outside. Again, use your next highest power girl in descending order as you fill it out. Make sure to hit the Validate button on the bottom, so the game saves your edited Team. 

After playing the game for a short period of time, one of the Daily Goals will be to "Awaken" a Harem Girl. This takes A LOT of game cash and Books to get the Experience Level up to 250. Only to realize that you then need a certain number of gems of a certain color, to finalize her "Awakening." That shouldn't be a daily goal until you have at least enough quantity of one color gem to even perform the Awakening.  

The gameplay is somewhat cheesy / unrealistic. Your lead character, as well as the Lead Harem Girl can "shape shift." That plays into new harem girls becoming available, and why the male talent in the scenes change. That capability is "glossed over" in brief text messages early on in the game.  

There is no User Guide, nor instructions / FAQ, etc. I did some searches on-line when I had things I was curious about. In most cases, the first link that came up was a Kinkoid Forum. I tried -- TWICE -- to register for the Forum Board to get access, but I was not successful.
