Ren'Py - Completed - Betrayed [v1.03 Steam] [Joraell]

As sandbox games goes it's okay ish but still offer no real contribution but waste your time. Add quality of life feature like marker on where to go, and if new interaction are available on the map.

The story itself is below average, so is the gameplay and the animation. easy skip.

v1.03 Steam

I have mixed feelings on this one.

Models: 3.5
They were mostly unique, and decently attractive. None of them really struck a chord though. No good petite, no perfect bombshell. In my opinion.

Sex: 3
The animations were too repetitive in the scenes. And most of the sex wasn't all that exciting, but a few were.

Kinks: 3
Mostly the same kinks on repeat. Tits grew, lets fuck! But there were a few others that I liked. Some rape, some incest, etc.
There is one scene that I found that has stomach bulge. Unfortunately its completely wrong and more eye roll worthy than arousing.

Plot: 3.5
I really enjoyed the story in practice, not on paper. What I mean is the premise was amusing and the little ways the plot changed per character was interesting.
But overall... there wasn't really a goal. Like, ever.
Felt more like a meta goal, as the player, to try and get a result.

Dialogue: 3
Sometimes it was somewhat worth reading. Most of the time I skimmed it or just took the images as reference to what was going on. Don't feel like I missed anything worth remembering, as even the "good" parts were sort of bland.
I think the parts where it was pushing the more controversial areas was more interesting. I would have enjoyed this more if it just delved the depths of being a deviant than trying to be back and forth with it. That's just me.

Ending received: Redemption
I chose to go for this one. Was the best good ending. It was alright. Not the worst, not the greatest. You don't get much of an epilogue of what life may be like etc.

Sandbox: 2
Hint system: 3
inventory: 1 (not relevant)
phoneui: 1 (not relevant)

Without the hints I'd have hated this game. Sometimes the hints were garbage but it helped enough.

Satisfaction: 4/5
Sex scenes could have been better, and more frequent. Could have put some voyeurs in to make the sandbox feel more rewarding.

Do I recommend this?
Ehhhhh. I don't necessarily dissuade you from trying it. I wouldn't say it is anything special though. Somewhat better plot than a lot of the slice of life pointless VNs out there.

PROS
+ Sex scenes have animations.

CONS
- The story is poorly written, and ruined by it, even tho it had potential at first. Especially the whole MC possessing other people thing is lame, it ain't fun to play at all, at best it's like watching generic porn, and makes it impossible to have any connection to characters.
- Women/Girls look quite generic, not attractive, ugly, and what worse is most of them are common assets used by literally every game out there... SMH...
- Animations still look average, but they take tools from the game is being too old as well, they used to be better, but since technology has come a long way they don't look good anymore, they haven't aged well, and developers didn't upgrade them well-enough along the way.
- Sandbox mechanics are bad, tedious, annoying, and boring.
- Menus/HUD/UI looks old and quite bad.

VERDICT
With all that in mind I really can't suggest this game to anyone, not even for using gallery unlocked to watch sex scenes alone, since the game didn't aged well...

Started off interestingly, and story was progressing well and then (I got the good ending according to the game) it just ended abruptly.

Lots of lewd scenes, decent character designs. Felt a lot of thing remained unexplored and unexplained. mixed experience.

Overall gets a poor that it shouldnt deserve.

The writing is ok, not terrible. The plot is at least to me pretty unique and the possession loop should be cool. The renders are ok and the models are good.

So whats bad? the whole interface is beyond awful. Mainly revolves around a city map with 2 dozen locations to randomly click through because there's no hint on where is worth visiting. Then when you do visits a location theres often a 3d model which you have to click into a sub location. Then you click into a sub location and theres a bunch of highlighted interactions ALL of which tells you theres no need to interact. You can imagine how quickly thats utterly boring

Sandbox done wrong

Overall - 6/10
Betrayed is an okay game about possessing people + school life + secrets within the school.
Good points: Renders - game looks good, some good animations, multiple endings
Falls short from little character development, sandbox (too many things to click + small things to find), writing can get very silly.
Story - 5/10
MC gets isekai'd -> deal with devil, now you can possess people -> go to school learn about secret drug -> school drama etc
Writing - it was okay, very goofy situations.
Characters - pretty weak, don't learn much besides x group hates x group
Bonus points for having multiple endings
Renders - 8/10
Most things looked great, sometimes things were low quality/ grainy
Animations - 6.5/10
Some scenes they looked great, other times terrible. Nevertheless, serviceable.
Sound - 4/10
Had BGM
Playability - 6/10
Sandbox - so many waypoints, small things to click and find -> bad type of sandbox
Hint tab -> gives you objectives
Hscenes - good amount of them -> quality of them is random (sometimes good or bad)

In this game, you play as unintelligent dude who just died and you're given the ability to fully possess other people's bodies. In this supernatural type of story is an Angel and Devil character where your choices determine which of these two sides you will lean on and thus determine your ending. With body swapping, sexual shennigans ensure. The sex scenes are full of nice animations and there's a good variety of women to look at it. The story isn't super amazing but it's a fun romp at the end of the day.

This was a very well made game. The possession mechanic is different and interesting and the models, while all being similar, are not just the same body with different hair styles like so many devs do. Where the game loses me though is by not making me give a single damn about the MC. I did not care about him at all and the fact that they had me jumping from body to body and not one person was like "hey, you're acting different" tells me that nobody in the universe has anything even vaguely resembling a personality. Also, it has a sandbox, but it is completely on rails. For most of the game there is only one location open and only one spot in that location that is interactive. With stronger writing this could have been one of the best.

Possessing different characters and watch sex scenes they have. Man, I am not here to watch porn, different people fucking different characters, even though it's not NTR, it's not any better either.
And seriously man, I have to possess a hobo and possibly a fuckhead professor who might fuck the student.
I'm out.....
The devil lady looked great through(considering it's from 2018). So, later renders might be even better. Alas ! I couldn't put up with the possessing crap. I might have missed a good rendered game. I wish it could have been straight devil-angel based VN.

This game had so much potential. The things that were good were really good but then it just gets kind of boring.

The sandbox was extremely restrictive to the point that it should have just not existed. The secrets were annoying because even of you could go back to the location, they just wouldn't exist anymore for some reason. I actually enjoy sandbox games so a proper one would have been nice.

Also, Megan, from the past game looks worse than everyone else so I guess they just recycled her instead of remaking her.

Really cool concept with the possession which is not technically multiple protagonists as you're always the same soul/character. This could have been amazing but the way everything comes together makes this game mid.

In the end it's not a bad game but it's not good either. Worth a try at least.

This game is really good. It has nice original idea and really good looking graphics. Also the animations are awesome. The gameplay is straightforward and more routes to try. Still there could be more content and more kinks to try.

Gave this game about 3 hours, got past the anders situation, saw around 5 sex scenes. Really did not like it.

It's a bad sandbox. There is nothing to do or explore, you're on rails the whole time. THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN A VN. You're hinted at really poorly what you have to do and it's annoying to figure out what the next step is. It's perfectly linear the whole time I played aside from the choices.

But worse is the awful writing. Just terrible bland prose with little respect for the world and characters and silly porn-tier plot and tropes. Really garbage stuff.

Graphics is okay for when it came out, but really starting to be dated now.

Great game thank Dev Joraell
The story was okay 3/5
The renders was great sometimes snowy 4/5
The animations were the thing about the game 5/5
I like it the plot might not win any trophies but it geast enough not be trashy. The animations and render are what really this for me.
Happy new years

It is good but didn't like some bad guys getting pussy . eventhough you are possessing them. other than that cool game with good renders and sex scenes. wish main character get a big win with main body .

This game deserves 5 stars overall.
It's a fantasy story in a modern setting, an interesting plot "more unique" than what you usually find.
Choices can highly impact how the story plays out so that also makes it more interesting and it potentially adds decent replayability if you want to see all the scenes/endings (or you could add the cheat mod to unlock the whole replay gallery and see the scenes you missed without having to replay the game).
The characters look very good and the animations are also of good quality, sound is also well done.
Overall the game is very polished, and while it's certainly not perfect and some of the themes might not attract everyone, I would highly recommend it.

I'll give the game 5 stars, just because the story was pretty interesting, something more or less unique. Also girls models and animations are very sexy.
I turn a blind eye to two things that I didn't find so good.
- No scenes SFX
- No Gallery

I played through the game once and I really don't want to replay it just for scenes or a different ending. Also some SFX, like at least moans would make the atmosphere 10x better.

EDIT: My bad, the gallery is actually in the phone. However, gave the game 5 starts anyway.

I give it a 3.5 rounded up to 4. That's because game would be promising if had been released in a short development period but right now for 2023 standards it is pretty much underwhelming. It has a somewhat original plot but suffers from lackluster writing. Got some multiple paths and endings so that's a plus. Sex scenes are good compared to other aspects which the only thing that I would give a solid 4 for. For an AVN it is pretty much average but worth checking out, but it is COMPLETE nevertheless. Secret scenes are very well done.

i finished the Game with this last update on an evil ending.
and now i play from the beginning to reach the good ending.
the characters are so nice detailed and have charisma.
who can resist this pure sweetness girls???
story is ok, could be better, animations are really great.
but there is so much unused potentional for more.
maybe his next game could go for love interested and on relationship based build up story, i mean common with theese girls it will be hard to decide in which to fall in love?
Joraell made with this a great Game. i recommand this game!

Before all, congratz to the dev for finish the game.

For real , GG dev for finish a game where your main character doesn t fuck any "hot" girl in it!

Well , the game starts as an isekai story but you actually stay in your world, just being a completely cuckold with the lie of you possesing bodies to "fuck" girls, when in reallity you are making the women fall in love with the dudes you choose to posses to fuck. That's a No for me.

Second point; The girls, well i dont know in the latest udpates but in the start , they are bad rendered and honestly the most generic models i've seen , mabye because of the date the game was made , that's why i recommend the people to finish what they start in 2-3 years, because if not the models look old and ugly compared to the nowadays tech. (unless you are talking about the Big Games where even if the time passes, the models still look HOT AS F)

animations are boring


the navigation system its not good and the sandbox mode makes this game pretty bad in general.

As i said, gg to the dev to keep putting effort in this thing and finish it.

Starts as a great game with a good story that is pretty fun and i just loved the scarlett part, but Anders path pretty much ruined the story and fun for me.

I dident really like 90% of the girls look which would have been ok if Anders story wasent completly stupid.
I tried to play the nice guy doing my playthrough but in Anders story your forced to destory hes daughter by telling her the truth, dident enjoy that part it just feels stupid and dont see any reason for the MC to meddle with such a huge issue for a cheap fuck which he dident even get, making the hole story pointless and stupid.
Anders might be a huge asshole but hes daughter is innocent in it all.

Whats even worse is that MC lets Anders become good friends with some of the girls even fucked multiple girls like Ivana, Sofia and Scarlett and more, why is MC helping an old asshole that blackmails students to be with him while MC also hates Anders and yet this is the dude MC pick to get all the girls????? an old ugly perverted asshole......in what world does that make any kind of sense, thats when it just make the hole story fall a part for me.

Atleast i wont have to support this game since theres no saving the story after that anders shit, you got to remember when MC no longer controles Anders he can freely fuck almost every single girl he wants, and he should be the one dude who shouldent have fucked a single one of them.

Story 2/5
Enjoyed most parts of the story some parts where really good other really shitty but mostly good.

Graphics/Girls 3/5
Overall graphic is fine and the girls i dident really find hot maybe one or two but the rest looked more like milfs then someone in school setting.

Animations 3/5
They look ok and there is plenty of them.

Music 3/5
Not bad not great so average.
