Come for the porn, stay for the school management simulator.
Corrupted Academy starts off strong, using pictures of some of the hottest models from porn as incentive to experiment with different actions and strategies. The corruption starts slow, letting you appreciate the different reactions and resistance that your character faces, but as your reputation grows and you're able to purchase more tools, you'll eventually be able to admit a new girl to your school and have her corrupted in less than a week. When you decide you're satisfied with a girl's progress, you can graduate her.
However, the story's not over after graduation, thanks to Corrupted Academy's alumni system. Not only does it allow you to call your ex-students up to finish any content you missed with them, but as you expand the school, you're able to hire your alumni to fill teacher roles, integrating them even deeper into your twisted system, and continuing the cycle with even greater efficiency.
Other honourable mentions for this game:
- Mod support makes it easy for users to add their favourite porn stars to the cast and expand the game.
- There are many stats that factor into decisions without feeling imbalanced, and so many random events that can trigger, which makes this game feel so polished already.
- A clean UI makes the aforementioned stats easy to mouse-over and understand, and even gives you tools to automate some actions.
The only downsides I can think of for this game are:
- You'll definitely want to set your skip settings to only "seen text" and use your skip key often. The downside of having such moddable, iterative npcs like this game is that you'll see the same lines A LOT and (aside from a few scenarios) the same stock images for their orgasms and such.
- The game manages to maintain a good pace for a very long time, but it feels like there aren't enough ways to build academy prestige or funds early on at this point, which made the game start to feel grindy after maybe 8 hours of play. I wouldn't be surprised if I missed something or if this balance is still being tweaked.
Overall, if you like management simulators, you'll love this game. If you like petite porn stars in school settings, you'll love this game. If you generally appreciate well-made eroges, you'll at least appreciate this game.
