RPGM - Completed - Blanca - The Poor Girl from the Slums [v1.0] [Duskcraft]

Graphics will be hard to the eye if you are not a retro gamer. Blanca (the main protagonist) has a tragic back story and is a very gullible person.

This is a sad game and suitable for people who likes humiliation and corruption in games. I personally felt sick and frustrated playing this but i'm not here to give my personal opinion. From the beginning, the game gives the player choices during cutscenes but they end up the same (most notably the beach photoshoot). The music feel out of place and too friendly for some situations. It's hard to know the next objective if you skip dialogues. The text is a bit difficult to read because of the transparent font. There are a lot of NPCs who you can talk but they all say useless information. Also, there are heaps of area to explore (alleyways, buildings..) but nothing to collect. Reading galore and no animations just CGI. You can't skip cutscenes as well.

This game really shows how rich people can mistreat and manipulate poor people. It was actually pretty sad playing this and i felt bad for Blanca. I really tried to give this the benefit of the doubt but after the second gambling scene with the pink suit guy, i was done. I wish there was a maiden run for this because i would've probably enjoyed the game more...

It is the only game ive found so far that caters to the reluctant nudity.

Gameplay is fine, there is a like 20 minute grind you have to do for 2 of the endings which was really annoying. The scenes were peak asf, although there was definitely a lack of scenes. Best game ive played so far, just because it caters so well to my kink but could have been much better.

Also the art and character designs were 10/10

This game had the potential to do something very good, but it failed to exploit it at all. The story is ridiculous and doesn't hold up, but let's ignore that because that's not what matters in a game like this, right? The hentai is also very poor. Given Blanca's situation, they could have created hundreds of hot scenes. Instead, there is absolutely nothing. There are always the same three CGs of nothing while repeating the same jobs and routines for 30 days. The prostitution route is the most pathetic. While Blanca keeps taking cocks, you have to listen to the story of the client's life too. It's as if they're at the bar. This is the most unfappable game I've ever seen or read. The gameplay is obscene, the story and characters are weak, and the sex scenes are horrible. The drawings are cute, but it's not enough.

It's an OK game with wasted potential. I like the plot of the girl having to pay a debt and because of that, she becomes corrupt. But the problem with this game is that it's slow, repeating the same actions for 30 days is boring and not knowing when certain events will start... and of course the lack of H scenes.

I've played about 2.5 hours of this and don't understand any of the previous reviews. There's been no grind so far, every repeated action has had a different outcome. The FMC is cute (except in the rather clunky sprite version that appears on the maps) and relatable. The story naturally flows from the premise and decisions.

The only two flies in the ointment are
1. The player doesn't know ahead of time what effect the actions they pick will have on the variables (which, frankly, don't make sense if you think about them so don't do that) so you can lose "lives" easily even if you thought beforehand that you were in good shape, and
2. RPGM and it's ugly map and sprites is the wrong engine for this. The game uses none of the strengths of RPGM and suffers from all of its flaws. Ren'py or even HTML would work better.

This is an OK game, the trick is that 1) It isn't as 'sandbox' as it pretends to be and 2) lots of content and events open up after a bunch of time has passed. If you don't think you're getting anywhere, rather than do anything drastic or give up you probably just have to waste some days.

In the end I didn't like it because there was a lot of forced or nearly forced content. I didn't have the patience to see if there was anyway around some stuff (like ending up being stuck without clothes, for ex.).

Glacial paced scene collector lacking in scenes.

after a lengthy prologue to set up the stereotypical "girl needs to pay back debt or bad things will happen" the game opens up into free mode where you can work several different jobs to repay the debt. You have to manage 3 different resources while doing so. Running out enough times will result in a game over.

and the reward for juggling all this is a lackluster half a dozen scenes. which you will see over and over again with little to no variation.

The girl is cute and all, but there are probably better uses of your time
