Player Comments:

Lots of different endings, check the wiki for details. The MC is a bit of an idiot which is sometimes annoying, but otherwise the writing is pretty good. It often feels on rails but then again this is a VN so there's only ever so much choice. The ren'py version of the game is very well developed allowing for easy skipping of scenes up until a decision point making it a breeze to check out the different ending paths. I would say play through the game without checking the wiki first, it's more fun that way.

Played v1.11 on Android, all endings. I had no idea about the history of the game or series prior to this review.It's a fairly interesting setting where a dumb highschooler gets his hands on a magical book that allows him to wreak havoc. Partway through however, the plot shifts to instead stopping the evil antagonist from performing an evil ritual. I'm surprised most by the amount of occult research done for the game, with a surprising amount of incantations, but unfortunately the only actual magic seen on-screen is just a few burning talismen and a ritual circle (no cool demons or angels for you).The majority of the novel is endless sex scenes, and every female character has at least two scenes. None of them were particularly satisfying in my opinion, unfortunately, but at least they are well drawn.It's a decent read, but it's hard to connect to the characters when the sheer amount of sex scenes makes it feel like eating a cake that's all toppings and no crust. The sole moment when Minase and Imari showed any real character was when Imari finds Minase having sex with a brainwashed Shizuka. Imari pretty much has a breakdown while Minase muses about how he feels nothing for Shizuka since her love is fake. . It's not a bad novel, but it is not particularly spectacular either.

First, a big thanks to Bible Black Ren'Py for a 5/5 port of this game to a platform that's easier to pick up.Like many others here, Bible Black was one of the first hentai I ever discovered as a teen, and I love that the illustrations and sexual events in this game feel true to the original. It appeals to my sense of nostalgia and even has a few famous scenes from the hentai while still diverting enough from the original story that I don't know what's going to happen next.My problem with this game seems to be fairly common in Japanese eroges: pacing and the illusion of choice. There are thousands of words of filler/slice-of-life beats in this story that don't move the story forward or effectively contribute to character development. To spice up this filler, the game will periodically give you two choices--but they don't mean anything.Some of the choices will straight up railroad you like, "You try to do choice B, but are pushed into Choice A instead" while others simply change the next 2-3 slides but have no impact on the rest of the story. This storytelling device gives the game the appearance of being more interactive than it actually is, but left me frustrated when I looked back and realized how much time I wasted reading filler text while sitting on a stock image of a school or a house.Overall, I give this game 4/5 as a fan of the original IP. If you're not a Bible Black fan, or dislike the aforementioned style of storytelling, you may find it less enjoyable.

Conclusion:

You play as a regular student who stumbles upon the very book the cultist used. You crack open the book, and begin stumbling upon the various powers this book has granted him. Now rumors are milling around you, and your best friend, some fellow cult-happy students, and a few of the school-staff start getting curious. How will you handle this evil power?
