VN - Ren'Py - Completed - City of Broken Dreamers [v1.15.0 Ch. 15] [PhillyGames]

A really interesting and exciting cyberpunk story seems to unfold here! Impressive graphics (IMHO) as well. I still don't know what the "secrets" do, but they are a nice thing, you get to enjoy that scene for a bit longer when you searching for it. As it often is with these free games (thank you, thank you), the updates always seem so tiny - and for once (for me) the story makes me want a lot more than given in them. So far (0.5) a solid 9/10.

Amazing game, not only are the renders amazing, some scenes are genuinely so cool to look at. Like MC in the car with the mask or him in the elevator with the reflection of his mask. There are also fantastic animations, (not just sex scenes) which just add so much character and depth to the game. It feels like Cyberpunk 2077 came out early when I'm playing this game.

The game just looks so amazing. The story is engaging and keeps you wanting for more. There are plenty of girls and pretty things to look at and more importantly things you can do to them. And all the characters actually have personalities. It is interesting trying to figure out each character and learn more about them. The game has a glossary which is really helpful understanding some of the story and the background, a gallery, and secret pictures you can unlock which just round out the game and make a more complete product.

This game has potential to become the best adult VN created and this update is no exception. The scenes were brilliant, there was a lot of character development, and the ending made me want more. If the game keeps going the way it is I am extremely excited for what's coming next.

If you haven't tried to for some odd reason, do so immediately.

Pretty good game, interesting setting and thought out story, animations are well done and the characters have depth to them, my only "complain" is that I think it would be nice being friendly with some of girls without resulting on a sex scene and still get the benefits in the story, but overall it's a great game and I'm looking forward to it's progress.

Amazing !!! The story, character design, sound, artwork and sex scenes( I like this one, very good fap material ) .... Everything is just perfect, the best game I ever played so far.
Keep up the excellent work, PhillyGames <3

Having loved depraved awaken I couldn't wait for this game to come out but when it finally did I never played it despite downloading it, for some ridiculous reason. Having seen a signature including Victoria however I realised what I must've been missing out on and my God I was missing out. Everything from the story, the quality of the writing itself to probably the best animations and renders I've ever seen in a visual novel on here. The building of characterisation of the protagonists throughout is fantastic and makes those more intimate scenes all the more enjoyable whilst maintaining the well paced story in a beautifully constructed world. I never really thought I could honestly view one of these games as much more than just something to get off to but this truly goes above and beyond in terms of both that element and just being an incredibly well made and coded game with branching that actually changes the direction of the story. I'm eagerly awaiting more updates but at the same time really don't want this to end.

Wow, simply wow! This is a masterpiece so far.
I belive the sex scenes are in my top 2 but the story is the best i've ever seen i would keep playing the game even if we had no sex at all.
Great work philly.

There's only one thing that could describe my opinion: The perfect game.
The best adult game I've ever played in my life. Great graphics and visuals everything felt so real, hot women with hot bodies, the best animated sex scenes I've ever seen everything felt like it was a real porn movie and of course a great story and gameplay. Can't wait for the next episode I'm looking forward to fuck the doctor "Hot body hot libs I want so many sex scenes with her" and Meredith "I know she's evil but since I saw her naked body in the shower I've been fantasizing about her" and of course more of Victoria the hottest body and the hottest ass.

Holy cow, if you thought a sex-game heavily inspired by Blade Runner was impossible to do without pathetically dropping into really poor taste, well think again and go play this little gem.
The sci-fi story and setting are pretty solid, and so are most of the characters and dialogues. The renders are AMAZING, and I would rank them 1st in the genre if it wasn't for a couple of esthetical choices here and there that weren't 100% to my taste (still great though, and it's an entirely subjective matter, you might find everything perfectly suited for you).
To top it all, incredible animation work: very smooth, very realistic, and with a couple of extra touches here and there that were really nice (things sometimes as subtle as a small facial expression change, for example).
Keep up the good work!

Great game. This is the first adult game I've played where I was actually more interested in the plot than I was in the sex scenes. At the same time, the sex scenes were very well done as well. Great story, great renders, fantastic story, great sound. Looking forward to seeing more. Will definitely be trying a few more playthroughs with different choices but really enjoyed my first one.

Incredible. A+ story, animations, characters...I'm in awe of the depth of the world and blown away by how intricate and lengthy the sex scenes are! Just pledged my support! Keep up the good work and can't wait to see what happens next

Just finished my first playthrough (as of version 0.4.2) and I'm completely in awe.

From the very first moment, you understand the game is not like any other. The quality of every scene is stunning. Several times, I found myself stuck on a screen for a long time because the characters are beautifully done, the backgrounds are incredible and there are so many details everywhere.
And before you're starting to get used to the gorgeous scenes and the numerous great animations, the story hits you. Hard.

But, in my opinion, the best feature of this game is its world building, so rich. Every character has an interesting story, the world setting is full of mysteries. And the information are given in a very engaging way.

In summary, the renders are incredibly beautiful and detailed, there are many animations which are always great, but the writing is what makes this game so insanely good!

Review for 0.4 played from stat for each version since first released.

Outstanding animations, music, story, renders, gallery plus beautiful girls.
Choices matter since exist branching quite early. I don't know what else can I expect.
Glossary is very good, so it does not interrupt the flow of the story to explain unnecessary things.

The Doc and Chandra are the ones I like the most, wanna see more of Gloria.

96,4 out 100

On my profile ->about->on the website there is a link with reviews of other games.

I'll be honest the theme didn't interest me at first. The visuals and animations are spectacular so I gave it a chance. It wasn't until the cliffhanger of episode 1 when it grabbed my attention. With a unique soundtrack and exciting story arc, this is now one of my favourite titles on the site.

This review was long due but that seems to happen to me with every game, to be honest.

Anyway, suffice it to say that I consider this game to be the best on this site, and this dev is BY FAR the best too IMHO.

By that I mean that he delivers impressive renders, as some other devs do (the sexual and non-sexual animations give him an edge in my opinion though) but the game is also blessed with the most engaging story around here. You read and read, and then read some more without ever getting tired. Sex plays an essential role in the seasoning, but is not the main course. You want to know, you need to see what's next.
Kudos to him and his team in this complex department.

I remember saying that some of the girls' body types looked too similar to me. That was last year, when DA was complete and we started getting previews and info about his new project. However, I was absolutely wrong.
Firstly, Philly's attention to detail can be unhealthy (hey, not complaining!). They don't look the same, far from it.
Secondly, all the girls have different believable personalities, all of them are attractive in so many different ways; it's insane.
(Only gripe: I like all girl types, that includes black or mulatto women; I would love to see a black female character created by Philly, I'm sure he'd make the attempts of others pale in comparison. Hopefully in his next game)

Also, the music complements this masterpiece in a way that cannot be described. For a few days after I play an update I still find myself unconsciously humming some of the tunes time and again throughout the day, it's ridiculous!

Finaly, to top it all off he's one of the most reliable devs you will find, likes to communicate with the fans regardless of whether or not they're patrons, and works trying to find new ways to make our jaws drop.

As a fan of PhillyGames' previous work, I tried this game as soon as it came out and was immediately impressed by its visual quality. I decided to wait for a few more updates before giving it a more accurate rating and review, and at the current time (v0.4), and based in its consistency, I feel like it's already overdue.

In City of Broken Dreamers, PhillyGames presents us a story set in a mostly cyberpunk world, influenced by the film noir style, and with some fantasy elements added, offering us a creative and unique experience that goes beyond the usual sex-centered plots of many adult video games in this industry.

The main attraction is, of course, its gorgeous models, that are so detailed, and their animations so smooth, that you can't help but be captivated by them, helping you getting immersed in the world and the story behind the characters; all surrounded in beautiful lighting effects and backgrounds that are also rendered in great detail.

With interesting and appealing characters, and a plot ripe with action and with some investigation elements, this game will keep you invested and immersed in the story and its environment, making you crave for more, if you are interested in any of the things I described.

Bare in mind that this is still a work in progress, but even in its incomplete state, the effort and dedication put on this game are evident, as well as its consistency and coherence in the plot, and I expect that by its completion this game will be one of the best games of this genre.

PROS: Stunning visuals and superb animations.
Interesting and immersive plot set in a dystopian future setting.
Interesting and appealing characters, especially Katie and Victoria.
Gorgeous female models, very realistic in their looks and motions.
Great music, well suited for the setting.

CONS: Simplistic game-play, but works well for a visual novel type of game.

Recommended for all players for its gorgeous models, visuals, and animations, but especially for those who also like an interesting and thrilling story added for good measure.

good story
good models
good character
good image quality
good animation quality

this is a poster boy of "good porn VN", the playability is excelent, every branch is worth explored, and the choice affect things that matter, too. every character is worth looking at, every "potential lover" is worth pursuing

the only thing that could make this game better if it's AA or AAA RPG/shooter/action-adventure game, which really hard to do if your game is AO-rated & you're indie dev

Pretty sure that's the best story i ever had in a porn game. I really liked the characters and their stories. Nice background music too.
Those models look awesome allthough one or two animations looking a little bit off for me at least. It wasn't annoying in the slightest though.
Didn't play the other games but i think i'll give them a try now.

The second game from our beloved dev philly is INSANELY better than the first. Dont know how i should praise it.. Great charaters and even greater rendered scenes. Also, the animations improve with each update. You DEFINITELY should try out this game and then head over to philly's patreon and pledge. Why? Play it and find out yourself. Cheers!

Developers everywhere, take note: THIS is how you make a game!
The amount of work and attention to detail that Philly brings to Broken Dreamers is simply amazing.
Everything fits perfectly: story, characters, dialogues, visuals, animations, background music. Production values are through the roof on this pure jewel of a game.

Little warning dear nephew, I'm as biased as fuck in this review, because this right here's like a curfew, a dangerously hot game that will keep most other titles locked inside their folders but a few. Everything from the writing to the graphics & music will amaze you, not to mention the sexy creatures that will frequently try to taste you, your dick or clitoris will be constantly as hard as a branch of yew.

On a serious note: Damn, I'm left "bouche bée". I'm a sucker for cyberpunk themes, and when you have a developper like Philly making a project of said genre it's like a match made in heaven. I adored his previous work hence my signature and this one might have even topped it which is making me extremely pleased. Bravo!
