Taimanin Collection: Battle Arena
Skip Straight to the Horny Parts
Synopsis
Collect cards and see sexy images. That's... about it.
Note: Sorry about the image aspect ratio, there wasn't any way to change it in the game.
Taimanin Collection: Battle Arena is a puzzle gacha game developed by LiLith and published by Infini-Brain Inc. It was released on Steam in July 2020, and is one of MANY entries in the Taimanin Universe series of games. While historically most of the Taimanin games have been visual novels, lately the series has made a jump to mobile gacha games. Though the brunt of the actual story is still in VN form.
Solve puzzles and collect gems to unlock cards! These cards have sex scenes included! Thats... pretty much it! Taimanin Collection is so bare bones that if it cost anything, it would be a ripoff. But for a free game you can get a pretty decent amount of lewd images.
The core gameplay loop is to play one of the 3 mini games, get as many coins as the game allows you (there's no limit on how many times you can play the games but you stop getting coins at a certain number each day), turn those coins into gacha rolls, and get lady cards.
The game pretty much ends there unless you install the uncensor patch. Without it there's really no point in playing the game at all. You're left with just 3 repetitive minigames and some semi-lewd character art to gawk at. In fact this game is so bare bones that there's very little to talk about outside the horny parts, so let's not waste any more time.
Horny Parts
-
Bike Run
You get a nice 3D animation of Asagi mounting up on her bike in her usual attire, but that's about it here. You collect coins and avoid obstacles.
-
Memory Match
Again, not much to see. Match the cards. They're lewd but they're way too small to see.
-
Puzzle
A bit more to see this time! An image is split up into pieces, and it's your job to put them back together! Slightly larger lewd artwork here, but nothing nude because it's still part of the core game.
Horniest Part
-
Cards
This is really the bread and butter of the game. Everything else you do is to get gacha rolls, so you can get more cards. Any card (other than one star cards) comes with a sex scene or two based around the subject of the card. These are a series of still images, generally starting with the character in a compromising position, and ending in them covered in goo. You also get a slight side-by-side comparison when you hover over their portrait on the card. All the text is in Japanese so if you're like me, you'll have to make do with the images alone. You see a lot of the Taimanin tropes at play here, body deformation, ahegao, and tentacles. There's all kinds of different ladies for different tastes.
Rating
Negative
Taimanin Collection: Battle Arena is a free game, and in this case you're really getting what you pay for. The small static images in the sex scenes are fine, but nothing about this game makes me want to play it for any longer than I have to. Just about the only saving grace this game has is the sheer magnitude of sex scenes to unlock, but after you burn through your hoard of "thanks for playing" gems, the rate at which you unlock them slows to almost a complete halt. Your time is better spent just searching for "Taimanin" on hanime.tv, or searching online to find the extracted game images.
