VN - Ren'Py - College of Mysteria [v0.7] [HappySteveGames]

Wholeheartedly five stars. As someone put it, cuckquean and NTS done right, must be a dream? No, it isn't. The tone in this game is perfect every step of the way.

The story is captivating, too. There's some adventure that keeps in from being a repetitive routine of fucking and classes. A real progression of events. There's enough lore to stir the imagination but not presented at length, it's mostly given out organically along with the story.

Character progression is also interesting. Cindy and the MC both remain true to the first impressions and become more defined as you choose their adventures.

Freedom of choice feels like just that: freedom. At no point do you feel like your choice is going to "doom" you to a particular path, or that not choosing the most daring possible option is going to deprive you of something significant: quite simply, if you enjoy the content an option leads to, you take the option, if you don't, you're not missing anything significant.

I really like the art in this game. Fantasy backgrounds are very well done and character sprites blend in better than most Ren'Pi games, AICG or no.

There are a few instances where you get a blank (black) screen while reading some lines, but I guess that's why this is WIP. Updates are frequent, filler screens are less than 5% of the current game and what there is feels so finished. With surely over 5-7 hours of content if you don't skip, this is no demo, it's an enjoyable story as is and I hope both story and characters will stay on course!

This one is freakin awesome. The art is really hot, characters are well built and profound, and the plot is really interesting. I barely skipped anything. Somes choices like sharing are present, otherwise this is a VN. No grind at all, and a very nice overall game, can't wait for the next phase!!

the Ai art is great. the story is really hot. i'm not into NTS /NTR , but the art is so great that I can't wait to see more of it.
the dialogues are well written, and the characters are funny.
The big selling point is most DEFINITELY the art though . it is so great. and the renders are really hot. not many games make me horny. this one does. not because of the swinging, but because of the art. The story is pretty good too so far.

Version 0.7

This VN is centered on your childhood friend, Cindy, who's had a crush on you forever. That's a good thing, because Cindy is the perfect girlfriend for you, whatever your preferences might be. If you want her to be faithful, she will be. If you want her to fool around with other guys, she'll do that too. She isn't jealous and supports you having your way with other women. She's dirty minded, playful, and absolutely loyal. God love her.

As far as the plot goes, it's a mashup of the magic college genre with tropes from the lit RPF genre (e.g., dungeons can go out of control). While the plot isn't ground-breaking, the world is filled with interesting characters who have their own motivations. It makes for a compelling read.

Highly recommended.

One of the best NTS games on this site. Cindy is the perfect girlfriend, there is literally zero doubt where her loyalties lie. She's constantly trying to get you laid, and she loves it when you fuck others. At which point she usually jumps you on your way home cause she got so horny. The story is pretty good too. I'm a little biased cause i like fantasy stories/games and this is about a couple that head off to magic school together. GF is a straight nymphomania cuckqueen. She loves to share you and eventually you have the option to share her as well. Oh, and your roommate is a total cuck with a smoking hot GF...there's quite a bit of NTI in here too. Basically, if you're looking for a dominant mc with a cuckqueen GF whom you can eventually also share in a male dominant NTS/NTI route then you should play this.

Great sense of humour and fairness, fantastic graphics and storyline, really looking forward to the growth of this game. Fits in well with the whole LitRPG genre that is all the rage at the moment., welcome break from a lot of the Japanese styled or themed gamesc, please keep up your update cycle, just enough to keep the excitement alive.

[Review about v0.61]
Cindy: The best wingman.

Surprisingly good for an AI-cg game. The consistency was better than I was expecting. The plot, if a bit silly at times, was interesting enough for me to want to know what comes next.

That being said, I think a line should be drawn between the netori and netorase/swinging content/route. I went through all choices in the game (though there's not much netorase content yet) and it's not very clear which direction the game wanna go. It's all a bit mixed up and it doesn't feel natural.
You simple don't go from being a dominant, possessive man one moment, then in the other, you make your girl go topless in front of dozens of strangers during a night party.

And that comes to the point of: Unsolicited netorase. During the normal (netori) route, that little dorm punishment "tease" crossed the line a bit. In this scenario, Cindy is basically shared regardless of you having entered the netorase route or not. In a way.

And that ties to the next point: Cindy's... "wildness". I really like her character, but she goes from 0 to 100 too fast. You have to decide if she's this faithful childhood friend who waited patiently for you to make a move without ever entertaining the thought of any other man or if she's a little slut who's ready to jump on any dick as long as you give the go ahead. Cindy was none too eager to suck the dorm master's dick to get rid of the punishment.

On another topic: Exploration. There's not a lot and when there is, you only get one choice. I'm a believer of "only one choice equals no choice". Not to mention that half way in the game, they just cease to exist. So I'd just get rid of all those moments where you have to click on the map to go to places and make it all VN-like for a smoother experience.

Overall, objectively speaking, there's quite a lot to fix until this game is in a good place. So I'm giving it a 2/5.
Personally, though, it was quite enjoyable. So my subjective rating is a 3.5/5.

It was nice seeing the result of all the training the MC and Cindy had by the end of the current update and I'm hoping we get more of this "action" as well in future updates.

I'm not really sure why this game is so highly rated. The 4.5 star rating is the only reason I tried it and I was disappointed right away.

The MC is a moron. There's no nice way to put it. He's an imbecile. I know he's supposed to be a simple farmer and a peasant that's illiterate, but just because someone doesn't have a proper education doesn't automatically make them an abject idiot like this MC is. He's so clueless that apparently his hot childhood friend is a nympho and he wasn't aware of it. Now that they got their ticket out of town, she sheds her facade of innocence and goes full blown slut overnight? That's pretty unrealistic and hard to believe. Then, she's supposedly still a virgin? Really?

Women just throwing themselves at the MC when he's dirty and wearing filthy clothes is also unbelievable. Again, being poor doesn't equate to being unclean. Netori is only fun when you have to work for it. Having married women throw themselves at the MC simply for H scene's sake is not only unrealistic but it makes the gameplay boring. There's no sense of accomplishment if, as a player, we are rewarded with little effort or choice.

The inconsistencies of the LIs was also a disappointment with the tutor chick gaining forty pounds of curves in some of the scenes. I know it's AI, but there has to be a little more effort to be consistent, especially with the appearances of the LIs.

The story seems to be building up to something big but unfortunately I found myself becoming bored with Cindy trying to serve every female in the game to me on a silver platter and with the MC being an idiot.

The models were hot (it's AI) yet one of the things I don't like about AI is the characters tend to look the same, especially the females. Put dark hair, red eyes and make her skin more pale and Cindy suddenly looks a lot like the Mistress Vampire. Not the Dev's fault of course, it's just something that always sticks out to me. I do appreciate the Dev having a variety of body shapes. The fact that every female isn't ridiculously curved and endowed with massive tits is a plus for me.

Maybe I'm being unfair with my criticisms. I don't want to discourage the Dev from continuing to work on this game at all. I just want to voice my opinions on problems that I believe need to be addressed now in early development before they wind up ruining a potentially great game down the road. I will watch the progression with hopes of improvement. Fingers crossed. I believe in you, Dev!

Very well done cant wait for more. Will keep checking in hope we don't have to wait very long between updates. Wish there more more animated scenes but so far so good guess could be something more for future.

0.6

I've really been enjoying this one. I think the art is nice. The scenarios are hot. The story is ok.

I think my only issue is lack of choice. There aren't that many choices and MC is required to bang every girl. What if I don't find that girl attractive? Or just don't like her personality. Dev really dropped the ball on this part.

Other than that, it's a pretty sexy game.

Ugh, one of my biggest pet peeves is in this game─lazy editing. It's not hard to capitalize letters at the beginning of sentences. The way this is presented, with missing capital letters every few lines, reminds me of a smiling drunkard with missing teeth. There are a few grammar, spelling, and punctuation issues as well. Those I can forgive, assuming the Dev's first language isn't English. But even non-English speakers still know how to capitalize the beginning of sentences. I also find it truly ironic that the two main characters are illiterate and are being taught to read and write. Pro tip─run the dialogue through a spell check. It's free.

On the plus side, I love the imagery and art style. I'm an artist, but unlike many, I don't mind AI art if it's presented well and has a good consistency. Although there is one bedroom scene that contains a desk lamp and a cell phone on a stand charger. Things that shouldn't exist in a medieval/magical fantasy setting.

I find the story to be compelling enough to retain my interest. It's piqued my curiosity to the point I want to see where it ends up going. I love NTS/NTR and look forward to seeing where that's going as well. So, I'll give this 4/5 stars for now.

It's a very straightforward AI-slop, quite competent and, If you do not mind the general style, pretty for this category. The main selling point is Netori content, but the narrative is so bare-bones, that it hardly feels like a Netori game. It is not so fun to fuck formulas instead of somewhat believable characters.

As of 0.5, there is enough content for a quick fap or two. I think you can try it out if screenshots do not turn your off and kinks are to your liking.

No hate to the developer. He knows what he's doing.

Brooo what a find, what a gem being hide behind the poor main menu (lmao, I hope we can have an update on that xD).

Absolutely outstanding! I just rushed the game rn, I was lured by the story and the immersion kicked in. Talking about being immersed, the +18 content is presented to us with perfect timing.

Clearly signs of a good game, art, writing, story telling, timing, immersion.

Keep up dev! ♥

(I'll make a longer review as I'm used to when the game is more developed)

3/4/25 Editing my previous lengthy review. An early five stars downgraded to two stars. Writing is getting worse. Art's getting worse. The game's no longer funny. The game's no longer sexy. Animations were both few and shitty from the beginning and still are. It was very clear from the beginning that neither NTR nor NTS would be required. Now they're both required. MC started out a sharp guy. Now he's the dumbest jackass in multiple universes. Everything's getting worse. Don't bother playing. This game is trash.

Its so good already but it has so much potential with the NTR route in the future, also the art is consistent.

If you are a fan of NTS you will love this.

I really hope to see more updates soon, this is really good.

The good:

1. Multiple paths that you can choose with different girls. The flexibility is nice and being able to avoid certain scenes is also a nice touch.
2. Game gets regular updates.
3. Developer seem nice and listens to the community.

The bad:

1. Too many AI Art inconsistencies. I do see an improvement as the game grows, so I hope the developer keeps it up.
2. The story or plot is a bit all over the place.
3. The "naughty" scenes or "sex" scenes are way too short.

Overall: Decent game with potential. Definitely needs some more time to cook. I will revisit in the future!

Cindy is so hoott!!!

The scenes that take place behind closed doors with her are incredibly exciting and intriguing! I think this is the first time I've seen these kinds of scenes implemented so effectively in a game. These are definitely my favourite parts of the game! Congrats to the developer for that.

Overall the story and the cg is really great and consistent.

I'm sure this will compete with other very popular ai cg games at some point.

and

I hope we will see many more scenes with NTR content including Cindy.

You are doing a really good job, dev. I hope you keep it up!

Gosh, that's what I was looking for! The game itself is very entertaining, has beautiful models, and has an interesting history that made me excited for more. It was definitely a great start!
Keep up the good work!

A really interesting game! But it looks solid! The plot is ready, and the girls have been introduced to us.

Speaking of girls... They're super hot, with interesting dynamics between them. The renderers are on par with the best in this game genre. All in all, it's just a very addictive game that I'll be watching closely.

TL;DR = interesting porn game. It can be summed up with "a guy starts dating crazy nympho girl".

Story: 3/5
Pros:
+ You follow Main Character who has recently started dating crazy sex starved nympho girlfriend. She enjoy any sort of depravity and doesnt have any shame. She will push MC so they explore depths of depravity together.
+ There is also this whole plot backstory of magic and fighting against forces of evil. It is interesting and gives the game some plot. But this plot is mostly background and game clearly focuses on sex primarily.
Cons:
- Sadly plot isnt very deep. There are some inconsistencies in story. Moments that dont make much sense. They feel like they have been added only because they are porn tropes or story tropes.

Art: 5/5
Pros:
+ Renders are good. Renders are much better than other AI games.
+ Girls are hot.
+ Sex scenes are hot.
+ You can encounter sexy scenes often in this game.
+ You can go full depravity NTR or just lighter "cuck-queen" route.
Cons:
- This is AI art and it has some downsides. But downsides are pretty minor (like when faces of different girls look similar ... or when there are inconsistencies in body types).

Gameplay and rest: 4/5
Pros:
+ This is typical VN with choices.
+ Choices have some impact on the gameplay. They will influence what scenes you will see.
+ English is decent.
+ Game has soundtrack. Nothing extraordinary but it gives the game nice ambience.
+ Game has sex sounds.
Cons:
- Current version of the game isnt very long.

To sum it up:
This is ambitious game early in development.
If you want a game that mostly focuses on sex and you dont mind lack of deep plot, then it is good idea to follow this game's development.
