In-Depth Review
Giant Wishes, developed by Hentai Room and published by eastasiasoft, is a visual novel that delves into the niche of macrophilia, blending humor with adult themes. Following the journey of Runi, a florist seeking respect in her village, the game introduces Lady Blerog, a retired warrior with a transformative potion that turns humans into giants. This setup allows players to explore themes of empowerment and dominance through branching narratives.
The game’s structure is straightforward, offering four distinct endings based on player choices. While the narrative is lighthearted, its adult content is overt, featuring explicit CG scenes and scenarios that cater to specific fetishes. Critics note the game’s brevity, with completion possible in under an hour, and mixed reactions to its art style, which ranges from anime-inspired character designs to inconsistent visual quality.
Technically, Giant Wishes operates smoothly on the Nintendo Switch, though its menu navigation can be clunky. The absence of voice acting and reliance on royalty-free music detract from immersion, but the core concept of a “giantess” narrative remains its selling point. Priced at $4.99, the game targets a niche audience, offering little for those outside its specific demographic.
For fans of visual novels and adult content, Giant Wishes provides a quick, albeit shallow, experience. However, its lack of depth and short runtime make it a questionable investment for broader audiences. As a product of eastasiasoft’s catalog, it aligns with their strategy of niche market exploitation, balancing risqué content with minimal development effort.
