Gameplay
Throw darts at a spinning wheel and don’t let any of them touch! The wheels will become mighty crowded by the end of the game — the number of darts that you must throw will increase over time. As the difficulty progresses, the playing area will be obscured (forcing you to carefully predict the movement of the wheel.) At your disposal are a handful of abilities, including the power to temporarily slow down time and remove obstructions. Now, a word about difficulty: barring the last two stages, this is so easy all you have to do is spam “click” to win. If you throw your darts fast enough, the wheel will never complete a rotation and you’ll win in seconds. I beat the game in about ten minutes!
Story
There is no story (and I’m not making one up.)
Visuals
The titlescreen is stock and boring. . . but the user-interface looks nice! You can adjust audio and language preferences from the gearbox-icon. Game data can be reset via the book-icon on the titlescreen. The level-select screen doubles as a gallery to view unlocked CGs from. When viewing CGs, the interface cannot be hidden.
The Goods
There are ten animated, interactive sex-scenes to unlock. They start with a clothed subject (in a provocative pose). If you click on them, their clothes go bye-bye (and a friendly wiener shows up!) Gee, don’t you wish life was so sweet? What follows is a minigame, in which you spam “space bar” until climax. Unfortunately, you’ll have to slam “space” really hard and really fast (which is counterintuitive if you want to fap-fap really hard and really fast.) To top it all off, the climaxes are. . . not very climatic. However, the animation and artwork are high-quality!
Verdict
I recommend this game if the artwork interests you. As a “game”, Holiday Time is a failure. The gameplay is boring and there aren’t any interesting mechanics or progression. I beat the game in less than ten minutes — even for a title priced at one USD, that’s unacceptable. However, the artwork is decent (and it’s clearly where all the budget went!) Funny thing is, the minigame associated with the sex-scenes is more difficult than the base game. I don’t think people watch sex-scenes to pound their keyboards; I think they want to pound something else!
