VN - Ren'Py - Bright Lord [v1.15.0 Patreon] [KissKiss Studio]

It's porn. Story is on the backseat.

6/10 Would be my rating for this.

Story:

It's messy, at least in a manner that MC is unstable and i have interacted with people who had mental problems and they are sane compared to him.

MC thinks with a dick. At the same time i just don't see where is the MC or possessed MC.
What do i mean by that? He contradicts his actions all the fucking time.

Case#1: I don't want lust for my family > (few seconds later) > Yeah suck it baby.

Case#2: You choose polite interactions > YET somehow after that interaction MC continues to be a dick. As if your choice was just a temporary color to show how it can be. (Talking about the blonde (Liz) interactions)

Case#3: Mingling with someone who is an antagonist and who potentially started the whole drama. My most hated moment of MC thoughts: She is crazy but hot. <- WHAT THE FUCK. WHAT SHE DID TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY IS SOMETHING THAT CANNOT BE EASILY FORGOTTEN. I would need viagra in order to get horny around that filth.

I can go on about inconsistencies of this story.
What truly disappointed me amount of porn/sex increased 10x if we compare first chapters and last ones.
Plot took the back seat and almost every frame shows us sex.

I consider porn novel and adult novel as to separate things and i like the adult novel - i.e. meaning that it's +18 and all topics can be raised unlike something under 18+ where there are censorship and bans for certain topics.

Renders and Animations:

They are good. Renders have good quality and models look stunning.
Animations are quite good and fluid.

Overall:

It's a timewaster. I'm on a fence to recommend it.
If you like all of the tags, check it out. If not, you will be wasting your time.

1) It's inconsistent mess both the plot and characters. - You get a certain feeling that author changed plot/story during the development process. Basically initially dev wanted to do one thing but changed things during the development process and could not patch/correct previous chapters and decided to bulldoze through forward.

2) It becomes more porn aligned/orientated the further it goes.
By that i mean both porn logic (brain rot) and amount of porn elements shown increase steadily.

This is my first time rating on F95zone and I'm glad that is not to review something I don't like. This game is a complete master piece with great plot the Narrative is very well handled and the model are one of those stunning type. when I first played this game probably in the early 2024 I tend to believe Margarie would of look better if she was older but with time I get use to it so I don't really complain.
Really like Megan even with her bitchy side and her uge ego easily top 5 female antagonist in AVN (with no glazing) I like her manipulative game she played on MC and that she always find a way to regain control with Amethyst. The last update was really fun to read and all those unpredictable events made it more enjoyable.

My only turn off for this game is the animation I think they need improvement to make it look more intense don't get me wrong the graphism and the movement are not bad just the animation who's a little phlegmatic for my taste.
After that very good AVN with choices. Highly recommend it!

Bright Lord went from "promising but messy" to one of the best adult horror visual novels on the market. If you enjoy gradual corruption, psychological possession, and a harem that makes sense within the story, play it. It's worth every penny on Patreon or in the itch.io bundle.

Do I recommend it?

Yes, without hesitation. Just don't play it in front of your family.

v1.15.0 Steam

Story fits perfectly for AVN game. Accepting this evil entities demand to fuck family members does logically take you on corruption path. Story does balance really well family, sex and main plot. I personally would prefer that corruption path and love path would have some variation on sex scenes and not separate hidden scenes, but this seems to be the normal way how most of the AVNs do it. More small differences during journey would remind us better on what route we are in.

Writing is overall good, but atmosphere is super negative. At the beginning everyone dislikes each other, but with the power of magical corruption, the family comes together. It all just feels kind of dark and depressing. For this reason, I have no interest on checking the love route. Only women I personally wanted to "save" were the side characters girlfriend and Gabriel. But in some ways I like that I can just brainwash abuse some women that I don´t care that much. Of course forced love scenes do remove this illusion.

Visually game looks good. Women are super skinny with air balloon tits, so sadly no jiggling of any kind. Over the updates the sex scenes have got better. Lots of sexy pictures to keep reading fun and some look especially great. Whole plot of mind control sex just makes the regular sex scenes somewhat letdown. There is no real taboo, love, hatefuck or other clear emotions on sex scenes. But overall everything looks good.

This is "Whining: the game"
Mc whines that he's infested with an entity and has to fuck his family. Entity whines that it was betrayed and that MC doesn't want to fuck his family. His family whines at each other about everything, then whines on MC that he has to fuck them and later they whine that he fucks not only them. Main antagonist whines that MC's dad didn't divorce his wife for her. Side antagonists whine that main antagonist is fixated on MC.
And it just doesn't stop. Same thing over and over again. It gets old fairly quickly.

So the story isn't that great, what about everything else? Models are hot. Sure, the only bodytype present is "bimbo", but that's fine. Individual renders are great, plentiful and every now and then game even offers you alternative ones to view. Sadly, renders for sex scenes are limited and stiff.

The game does offer some variability, but mostly it feels that it offers options for the sake of options. Perhaps if there was a way to know what options you locked yourself out by previous choices - it would've felt better. As is - it doesn't really matter what you choose.

It's good for a single run-through, but i'm not seeing myself returning to this game.

I thought, based on the screenshots and reviews, that it was a good game in its field.
At first, the plot was captivating and the scenes were short, so I went with the "good guy" route.
But then you realize the plot gets worse with each act. The scenes and animations are all clunky, so you notice little things due to bias. For example, in one shot (IT'S not even an animation), Emily's new hairstyle is broken and hangs like it's made of wire.
And almost all the animations are crappy and short.
Afterwards, I decided to replay as the "evil" character, and the plot didn't change. That is, you're still weak during the first encounter, and when you save Chloe, the "White" character will still win, and Lisa will still feel unloved.
I assume the good guy ending will feature a choice between the girl and the villain ending will feature an orgy.
But the essence of the story won't change. And the "grown-up" women don't look like "grown-ups" at all; that's just a matter of taste.
I don't recommend this game; it has a nice cover, but the implementation and so on are poor.
Also, the Steam achievements haven't been working for a month now. I had to "hack" them.
P.S. I saw that I purchased a "package" from this developer, who released two Steam games in one year, and neither of them is finished and both are still being worked on—which is also a minus. It's clear there will be a lack of focus. But I hope the first one will be better, although that's unlikely. I give this game a 1/5 rating. Maybe the game will change.

First off I wanted to love this game from first picture. A family of beautiful brunettes! So disappointed almost immediately I had to delete game and write this. The mom and younger sister are so sweet and stunning and then from the get go it’s basically the MC raping them and them forgetting and praising him. Here’s hoping for a total rewrite and them getting a story worthy of them.

This is the basics! The main character and his harem are banal and uninteresting. However, in such genres, I focus on the plot component. In this aspect, everything is much more exciting. According to the plot, a spirit that "feeds on emotions" enters the main character, and your task is to resist it or give in. The plot is enticing, the dialogues are interesting, and as we know, this makes up almost 100% of the gameplay in such genres. BUT this banal imitation of choice spoiled the impression of the game. Even if you resist the "spirit", in any case you will f*)k everyone, the plot remains linear, and your choice only affects the text in a few sentences.

A great discovery for me, even though we're on version 1.14.
The girls are gorgeous, and the story, while not horror, is a fantastic one. It's not always clear, but it's relatively fluid.
The game's usability is excellent, but the option to change outfits is, in my opinion, useless. Where the game falls short is in the intimate scenes: it's not very fluid, but it's mainly because it's way too short! No options in the scenes or progression during the intimate acts: 69, caresses, top-bottom... make it a bit too cold! It's a shame because the girls are gorgeous, and their "family" relationship is successful and progresses well!
So, dear DEV, push the feelings a little harder for the romantic route ^^. The MC is good and plays his role perfectly!
Overall, this is a good AVN that lacks a bit of warmth.
4/5 for the girls, the story, and the usability. One to watch closely. AND PLEASE no ending to spoil the whole dead style of the MC or the girls!

I have to agree with previous reviewers, The story is very mid. Its an interesting premise, but the delivery of that feels very half-hearted. The corruption path doesn't feel earnest, and the love path still ends up with too many angry/resentful moments all the way up to the current version.

The women are all obviously hot, and the renders are high quality. The animations are mostly shit though. They don't look natural at all. The range of motion is poor, the body physics are lacking, the durations are short, its just generally not a very appealing experience.

Because the dialogue is not super engaging you can get through this pretty quick. I think its worth a quick run, but don't expect this to measure up to the top tier VNs.

I plan to talk about the lack of representation in the game. I hope that the situation will change in the future, but this is one of those games where you are limited by the author's narrative. The female character disrespects the main character, and he seems to agree with her, perhaps because the author directed him in this direction. As a player, you are limited by this point of view and cannot disagree with the character. In fact, regardless of the situation, you can't have an opinion because you're limited by what the author wants the main character to think.

It absolutely sucks as a VN, but close to excellent as a set of nsfw pictures and animations.
Devs put maximum amount of efforts to make an eye candy, pity the rest of the aspects werent loved by them as much.
The game is trying really hard to over achieve, and it makes it slightly off.
My biggest cons with it were bugging inconsistencies.
MC with his LIs had to switch places of residence, so far so good.
They absolutely had no time to pack any of their items.
Nevertheless next days judging by the way they are dressed they are on a sexy fashion show.
LI can randomly switch swimsuits during the same scene.
My MC was RPing the 100% bastard with the maximum corruption path, and sometimes he started to loudly doubt himself while in the middle of seducing the next victim, while the victim in question was asking to continue.
If he would start having second thoughts before seducing LI, its completely undestandable.
If he would start having second thoughts in the process, if the LI is against it, I'm all for it.
But having existential crisis in the middle of having your dick s*cked, its definitely smth unusual in lewd texts writing.

Nevertheless, if nice looking graphics is your topmost priority, and you dont really care much about the rest, you'll most probably like it.

This is the best game on this site, love it very much, developer is top, literally awesome job! Hope you make more good games to bring us happiness! Literally awesome work and animations, and girls costumes... That's fantastic work!

I rate all games based on 4 parameters.

Art/Render 7/10

Overall the renders look really good they just look a bit stiff. The jiggle during animations is not nearly enough.

Story 6/10

It's alright. You being mind controlled (not exactly) by some ancient demon and made to go around and fuck your family isn't exactly the most interesting thing in my opinion but its okay.

Gameplay VN/10

Typical VN with a few choices and a lot of text.

Amount of Content 7/10

There is a lot of content but the distribution for people who actually read is not very good.

4/5 overall solid VN with a few small issues.

Word of advice to devs out there: When creating characters, on a sexiness scale of 1-10, shoot for 7s, 8s, and 9s. The dev here tried to make everybody a 25, and that simply doesn't work. When every character has a body and face a supermodel would kill for, the end result is extremely lifeless and boring.

When MC's mom and sisters are hanging around the house, they're always dressed like they're attending the gala event of the century or they're lounging around in exotic underwear like some billionaire's housepet.

The hair, eyeliner, fake fingernails, clothing, and high heels are all black, as are the paintings on the wall and everything else. All black is neither sexy nor spooky. It's just lifeless and boring.

The demon story is good, and technical aspects of the writing (spelling, grammar, punctuation, etc.) are excellent, but the human dialogue is boring, and the medieval demon dialogue is laughable. Most characters are unpleasantly bitchy.

The UI is very good with two exceptions: MC's thoughts are rendered in gray, which is hard to read, and there's a strange intermediate menu which adds extra keystrokes if you simply want to save your game. Aesthetically, it's excellent.

I recommend demanding your mother's ID before having sex with her. She looks exactly like your little sister.

Animated 3D game, an original story with decent lore, plus a legit plot device that drives LIs cock crazy? 5 stars.

Minus 1 star that it went through 1 reboot, but I'm hopeful this game will eventually get the complete tag. Potential 5 stars then!

I played it before rework, and it was good, little bit funky but good. Story was intriguing, art was good. Then developer (i believe name was santaras) Announced rework, and i thought as most games rework, will not be as good and i didn't touch it after that. Boy was that a mistake.
Now story is really progressing, characters are interesting, each with their own berry, art as i mentioned was good, now for me even better.
After joining Discord sever i saw how invested and detalied Dev makes updates and dev Logs ( That's another thumbs up for me)
Also will buy game on steam to support the dev,
So i suggest to try it, and not to skip to fucking scenes.
Can't wait how the story will continue.

Bright Lord is honestly one of the better adult games out there. The art is beautiful, the world feels alive, and there’s actually a real story to get into — it’s not just random scenes thrown together. The characters are well-designed, with different looks and personalities, and the game mixes solid strategy elements with the adult content really well.

Scenes are hot but also feel earned because the writing is actually good. Plus, the game looks and plays super smoothly, which makes it easy to get lost in for hours.

If I had to nitpick, almost all the characters have pretty much the same body proportions. Would've been nice to see a bit more variety there. But honestly, that’s a small thing in an otherwise great experience.

Everyone's taste is different. To me, this game is a solid 5/5.

I thought the game was great before the rework. But the rework made it EVEN better .

This is a great, interesting game with beautiful character models. All the ladies in this game are all gorgeously beautiful, even our BADDIES! The renders are superb! The story is simple, easy to follow, and engaging. I LOVE the interactions/relationships between all the characters, especially MC & Mr. Bright Lord himself. The animations are improving. I believe this game is just going to get better with every update .

All the content in the gallery is mmm, mmm, mmm, delicious! This game has SOME beefy content for you to enjoy .

I guess the only negative thing I can say about it is, "After it's finished, I'm always wanting more .

4.4/5
Pretty interesting story and characters, high quality renders. Some of the texts ended up being too long and I skipped through but it still seems like quite an interesting story.

Hoping to see more content with MC accepting the corruption rather than actively pushing against it for so long.
