Ren'Py - Corrupted Kingdoms [v0.22.3d] [ArcGames]

Pro
-The games story is interesting and that motivates me to actually play the game, unlike most games. and
-Freedom to navigate is great and even though there is a time schedule, there is no time limit so you can really check out everything.
-Dialog is good, entertaining at times and not long winded while making progress.
---Daily updates and has been doing so consistently. Most game projects like this one break its production release schedules/promises or even hold it hostage to milk peoples money in patreon. But so far not this one and that is great!

Con
-The dungeon features was removed, wth!
-Character stats do not grow proportionally if you continue to play with your save file after it was introduced as past activities do not count.
-models/characters are simple looking or even a little bland but thats the price when using some anime hentai games models and importing them. into this game

Great game, interesting story. The girls are really well done. The animations are top tier, I just wish the sex could be even faster, few games offer us some really fast sex :/
Still the scenes are great.
I passed this games so many times without stopping because the preview screenshots don't look great. We should be able to see what makes this game worthwhile (yes, the sex ofc), not something that isn't even canon yet.
Anyways, keep doing a great job!

Updates are "weekly", I say "weekly" because the dev takes 1-2 weeks breaks every month and advertises his game as having weekly updates. They are extremely short, and rarely have porn. He claims he wants to spend time working on the story, but the story is shit and moves at a snail's pace. Instead he just introduces more new characters and new plots without resolving previous plots. Many of the features that have been advertised to be coming soon since the game's initial release never came.
Overall a mediocre game, but due to slowness of releases and their lack of content I am choosing to review this as terrible. Not even worth the one dollar for the lowest patreon tier.

Didn't really know what to expect when I first got into this game, but a few hours in it became obvious that the writing, characters, animations and gameplay are fun and a solid 10/10.

In most other games of this type I usually just skip through the text; often because it is too little and badly written or too much and uninteresting, but that is not the case in this game; here the conversations are fun and engaging to read, which is a solid bonus.

If the characters are interesting and the dialogue is well written then the player has an easy time getting to know the girls, and that adds so much more to the eventual sexual encounters; And I believe this game succeeds entirely at that.

Every h-scene is animated, and while the animations are short and could be a little better quality-wise, they are a definitive bonus to the game.

Perhaps my only complaint would be that the angles of the animation are most often covering up the action by changing the camera angle to the side when it comes to sex.

I understand however that this might be due to the fact that the models don't have real collision, so a camera angle showing sex might sometimes look less sexy than an explicit side-view. Still, this shows there's room for improvement with the animations.

However with that being said, this has quickly became one of my favorites, and I will be paying close attention to the development.
As of right now I have finished all of the existing content, which took me several days (about 20 hours back to back I think) which is quite a lot for being in alpha stage.

Currently there seems to be a lot of fun and expansive gameplay features that I wouldn't have expected from this game, albeit right now most of them feel like just a taste of what is to come.

I can see that the developer really cares and is trying, so I fully recommend this game to anyone that loves the mind-control genre!

One of the BEST GAMES I ever played.

If you like anime style, and getting wierd sometimes this game is for you. Everything is uncensored and ANIMATED.

What are you still doing here please for the love of god play the freaking game and support this development!!

The amount of characters is just right, the developer is really active I think every second week is a new update.

I've been following this game from near it's beginning, I recommend it highly to anyone that jives with it's tags.

The writing is pretty good, very funny at times. It manages to drag you from some eldritch horror seriousness to light heartedly singing karaoke with a shy wannabe pop star.

Gwen, Chloe, Pixie, Kana, Astrid all get a thumbs up from me!

It has a little something for everyone.

There is no words to explain this game. The environment , characters , dialogues are all godly. I surely have become a Stan to this game. This simply in my opinion is the best game.. I have played some games not a lot but those games didnt have the pull this one does. Eventhough i have finished till the latest updates i find myself playing some scenes again and again. The writing lures the players to relive the scenes through the MC. Best game ever Period.

They said I can be a sociopath in this, that's pretty much what you need for me to rate a game 5*

What's this? A fairy that isn't obnoxious? This can't be real?!
Be a hero or a villain, your choice so I tried to be a villain with good intentions, then a hero with none, it works since it's kinda like a flavor text or smth.
You'd get a management sim in the future, a harem creator, a non-dogsh- MC
Let's see, Mind control? Turn someone to Yandere? Possible.
I don't know how to rate so just read the first line of text above...

Very hot models and animations (except for the catgirl- what's wrong with her chin?) and interesting story. The dialogue, while not incredible, is better than I've come to expect of porn games. Overall definitely worth your time, assuming it actually keeps updating the way it has been.

Overall one of the best games on this site with the most frequent update schedule I've seen. One of the few dev's worth supporting.

Story: 4.5/5 - Story is pretty good compared to most games on this site. It's a pretty straight forward mystery-type story, but keeps you entertained enough to keep playing.

Characters: 5/5 - Characters in this game are what really make this game stand out. Theres not only a lot of variety of these characters with different personality types, appearences, etc but they are all well written as to their background and story. Alot of games on this site have alot of characters to appease different fetishes, but none of them are actually written to be interesting.

Renders 4.5/5 - The renders are absolutely amazing (I love koikatsu models so I may be biased), and it's clear the developer spent alot of time creating unique scenes/models. However, alot of the images seem to be a bit blurry on my computer. I'm running a 1080p 60Hz screen so I don't really have anything special, but the images look like they might be in a lower resolution. Its prob too late to change it now, but I think that's one big improvement the game can make, especially with how high quality the actual renders are.

Gameplay 4.5/5 - This game is a free-roam sandbox type game with quite a bit of freedom (which is great for games with many girls). The game doesn't really have any grinding, which is great for any game. The game is centered around the mind control mechanic, but you still have to build relationships with every girl so the whole mind control aspect is actually very tame. I really like how you can choose which route you can go with each girl (slave or love). The only thing I dislike is how there's a morning->afternoon->evening cycle but there's really nothing to do in the evening so you pretty much get 2 actions before you need to sleep. It makes an otherwise non-grindy game feel grindy, I think there should be like a "quick sleep" button or something to make that process faster or add some more stuff at night.

Content 5/5 - I'm pretty sure this is the only dev on this entire platform releasing weekly updates. It's clear that this guy is truly passionate about what he does and isn't just raking in patreon money with nothing to show for it like alot of other dev's on this platform. Game currently has quite a bit of content already, but with the speed of updates it's expanding fast.

overall a good game
the story is pretty good
the charctors are cute and sexy
i got pretty fucking pissed at the fact that a ..... saying anymore would be spoiling it tho so eh

10/10 im pretty sure ill fap to this many many times over in the future

I have to say, this is a pretty impressive game! As far as character development, it wasn't too fast or too slow, perfect speed! The Scenes and characters models were also on point! I think the thing about this game that I really love, is how long it is!

The only downside for me, is that the objectives should be a little easier to find. (Like even telling a hint for what you should do.) I've seen a few objectives telling me where to go, but there needs to be maybe a few more in my opinion. Nothing bad, just a suggestion! (I'm an idiot and blind. Found them!)

For a game that's not even completely done yet, this is really good! I really cannot wait until the full version is out!! I'm actually excited about this! Not too often when I get this excited! Excellent work! Keep it up!


(Edit: Just found out about the cheats and the $1 Mil troll. Gotta say, that was hilarious lmao)

i wish aunt would stop trying to sleep with me and that we would have more college content , pixie can also be annoying sometimes but shes okay i guess , there are a couple of bugs here and there but its ight

another great illusion game it seems illusion games always carry great stories with the perfect blend of comedy and story progression and it always makes me arc back if you excuse the pun im very impressed with the non standard backgrounds in this game due to it not being default well done and good luck

It is a great game.

Artstyle, writing, content, all good.

The ONE thing that bothers me is the update frequency. Its just too often for my taste. Nothin bad for most of the players i guess. But i get discouraged by that many updates. I would never expected that I would ever write something like this, but here we are.

Great game, play it if you haven`t yet.

One of my top 3 favorite games on here. First of all there is a lot of content here. They have explorations areas where you gotta try different paths and you might get rewards based off that. There are a lot of characters, you got monster girls, animal girls, and normal girls, each with different personalities making it feel slightly refreshing. Would highly recommend this game!

review based on version 6.1
PRO:
- not bad CG, good filtered, but not perfect- some clipping, some visible low-polygoned models
- good animations
- code not complicated and ok
- story is ok
- girls background also ok
- hints present ingame (its cool when u dnt need external wt for sandbox)
CONS:
- very early stage development- looks like near 20-25% game content is done(isnt flaw, but incompleteness visible). i mean- to many girls, but their story too short
- first part of game separated sliced from second (i mean lab)

i had a good time and i ll wait for much more ig content.

Arc has one heck of a work ethic. That alone is worth five stars in a world filled with devs who only update 3 times a year and milk projects for as long as humanly possible. Arc updates so often I kinda almost get mad sometimes, what with all the downloads. As a result the game has a lot of content and is pretty stable to boot. It has an interesting power gimmick and does not force you to play the good guy all the time unlike a lot of harem games out there. You can be as cruel and vengeful to your enemies as your little black heart desires, while also allowing you to be kind to those you think deserve it so you are not stuck playing a too cruel for school would kick the puppy type protag. The girls are all great and I love Arcs writing style. Please give the game a try even if the anime style does not do it for you there is a lot to love about this game. Thanks for all of your hard work Arc.




I want more Lily btw. Lily is best girl.

Corrupted Kingdom is a good Ren'Py game that gives the players enough girls to seduce that it satisfies very well to the Harem genre, and the heroine's choices are diverse enough that you won't get bored. It has some cheesy and sometimes WTF moments, but it's part of this game charm. They give you enough options in the game that made it so your choice actually matters, so fans of those types of games can enjoy it too. The money grinding for upgrades can be a bit 'eh', but with enough determination, you can get through that for some of those booties!

Really, about the best game ive ever played of this type. I have to write a bunch of words here because obviously giving a rating and a short reason why isnt good enough. It would be nice if they would give you a letter counter so we would know how much to write before stopping. Cant even support a game easily ffs
