VN - Ren'Py - Chemical Regression [v1.2] [claymorez]

(Version: 1.2)

I’m enjoying it so far, even though the visuals are low quality and the story feels a bit weak (seriously, what’s the deal with that rejuvenation pill?). Still, the forced corruption paths - some involving drugs - are internally consistent.

I would have preferred a more believable plot and a slightly smarter main character. The corruption pacing also feels too fast and would benefit from a slower buildup.

Overall Rating: 4/5

• Story: 2/5
• Visuals: 2/5
• Main Character (MC): 4/5
• Animations: 3/5
• Setting/Scenery: 5/5
• Served Kinks: 5/5

Avoid this one if rape and abuse aren’t among your kinks! I think the opening post really ought to contain a rape tag. That said, I really hope the developer continues delivering quality content - as they’ve done so far.

This is another game where I'm really torn between 3 and 4 stars but I don't get to choose 3.5, so I round up. This is a game about forced intox primarily - the age regression story happens at the very beginning, and consists of being randomly given a pill by an NPC who never seems to return later or be mentioned ever again. After that, totally unrelated people show up to try and drug you, and your options are limited to "do you want to take DRUGS?!" or "nah, I'm good", although sometimes you are forced into silly situations if you say no to everything anyway. There are some fun effects when you are drugged, and a progression from easy stuff to full on syringes full of mystery drugs, but right now the story is extremely barebones and unfinished. The art is okay, nothing great but it isn't awful either. The characters' faces generally look pretty goofy, especially the gang members, but the girl herself is decent. There are the beginnings of a few different "routes", but nothing really progresses far enough to differentiate them heavily for now. If this game was a little more fleshed out and had some actual reasoning behind what is going on, it'd be rated much higher because the dev at least gets the idea behind the fetish being presented here. I also wonder what the point of changing the MC's age even was, since this never really gets mentioned or touched on again in any meaningful way... even the old man who had a crush on the old lady MC just totally forgets about her and moves on to the supposedly new girl with the same exact name... Really the more I write, the more I reconsider giving this a lower rating but since there are so few games which touch on forced intox/drug addiction themes which aren't just your standard mind control serum harem collectors, I want to be kind here. Go into this knowing that this game needs some additional work to really shine, squint whenever the dialogue gets a little unreadable, and you might have a decent 20 minute wank out of this as it stands. Maybe.

Dev - if you would hear my humble advice, I think writing this game would probably be easier for you if you focused on one path at a time, then went back and finished other paths, instead of trying to burn all candles at the same time here. This could be a good game if you keep it relatively focused on the gang storylines, then go back and clean up the jank as a final pass and add in the additional paths (old man, for example) if you want. Right now the tone shifts between the different content with the gang/restaurant owner and then still going back to have a chat with the old man in the evening all seems a bit disjointed.

As the other review mentioned, this is not a complex or believable plot. It is however a sexy story of a girl falling into a drug habit and slowly getting corrupted into a whore. If youre looking for corruption it scratches that itch.

I should probably rate this lower, but I don't want to penalize the dev too much considering I am the first reviewer. So let's start with the good.

It's actually a decent start. It's original enough to at least get me to dl the AVN and give it a try. The writing is solid and the MC is definitely interesting. The graphics are typical Honey Select so nothing earth shattering.

And that's about it... lol.

The story is so unbelievable, I found myself laughing. I mean, I bought into the pill and having her wake up looking like a 22 year old, but then she starts acting like a 22 year old. She has a lifetime of experience and smarts and yet she uses none of that to help her out. Instead, she acts like a naive little girl accepting drinks from strangers on a train or being talked into these silly situations.

I even tried playing it where she turned down everything, yet she still ends up doing silly things in the club.

IDK. Seems like this was written by a young kid and that's okay, If you don't care about the story and are just in it for some silly corruption and are into blue haired hotties, then this might be one for you. Hey.... I like me some Jewlez Blu as much as the next guy, but she has way more brains then this MC, and that's not saying much.

I will say, it does have some potential so if you like corruption games, dl it and give it a shot. Just don't expect a great story.

Good luck to the dev.
