HTML - Crucial Investigation [v1.68n] [root]

I dont really know why there are so many picky reviewers. I enjoy the game, there are consistent updates, and each "scene" is an enjoyable read for me..

First thing I should point out for those who are picky is a linear storyline but it doesnt make the content bad. The content is still satisfying to me and periodically still enjoyable doing another play through.

Second, I dont 100% understand the different meters and how it applies to unlocking new scenes yet. I'm sure the future will have some sort of quest/mind log to guide the user. Considering it's a game under development, there are good bones in here.

I completely expect the next game whatever the premise/concept to be just as good or better. Good luck developer.

The lack of pregnancy and few objective of the character makes the game bad. The game is very time consuming and every day has the same event, I think every day a new event should be added to the character's life because that would make the game more interesting.

Regular updates from the dev, moreso than most other games on this site. Lots of scenes (at varying corruption levels) with mostly gifs rather than stationary images. A solid sandbox game, worth checking out.

The ideia of the game was good, but the game its not good at all.
The interface is nice, but the plot dont matter, your choice dont matter, nothing that you do in the game matter.
It's more like a click, porn gif, click, porn gif, click, porn gif... end.

I like the premise of this game, the setting is quite different from most other games. The writing is decent and it brings you to the fun part quickly. While it may be a little over-the-top, it is not that much more than 'sausage in a pizza box'. Really good content and looking forward to seeing more!

So, the premise souds good...

... but if MC doesn't start a total slut who wants to fuck her real boss and her undercover boss, she won't get corrupted into a total slut who wants to fuck her real boss and her undercover boss, because that's a game over.

Considering that underlying "logic", I probably shouldn't have been surprised the policewoman sent on a crucial investigation doesn't seem to do any real investigating.

The dialogue is every bit as bad as the storytelling, though I guess it fits the "logic" that MC has to start out as a dumb slut to be corrupted into one...

Updates suggest creator mistakes quantity for quality; unfortunately, more images and video clips alone don't actually make a better game.

It's hard to evaluate this game. It really depends on what you want out of a game like this.

If all you care about is mindlessly clicking in the hopes of getting a lot of porn, you'll be mildly satisfied. I say mildly because the game logic, which is rooted in sluttiness and lust, makes it really hard to see new content. Sluttiness is not really based on actually having sex repeatedly, but on some arbitrary logic behind the scenes. You're forced to masturbate if your lust gets too high forcing you to choose which scenario you want the enhanced content for b/c masturbating resets the lust meter.

So, on that note, though you can eventually get to some hot content, it's remarkably grindy.

If you care about the story with your porn, you're playing the wrong game. Unless you act slutty with both your boss AND the principal of the school you get an immediate game over. There's not even the pretense of the policewoman actually going to the school to do her job. And your boss doesn't really care if you're doing your job either. It's not like you ever provide meaningful updates to your "undercover" work. You're just at the school for sex, not to solve an actual crime as the premise suggests.

To be honest, the entire game would have been more plausible, if Amy, the playable character with the most content, was a simple schoolgirl at the school and not a cop.

Even though there's a lot of hot content undergirding the game, I was actually surprised that I found myself quickly bored by the game, mainly because it was just a lot of mindless clicking, with no real story.

i dont know why this has such a low rating

nothing ground breaking but still solid the dev is getting better and better each update its definitely worth a play through if you like real porn.

its got school girls and tits whats not to enjoy

Unfortunately, there's nothing much to this title now, and I expect that their won't ever be. I'd suggest giving this one a pass.

Some worthwhile games have rough starts: the writing needs some proofreading but the story is overall solid, or the art is lacking until later in the project when an artist is brought on or art can be commissioned, or Daz3d is being used by someone who has some natural talent in framing and composition but is still learning the ropes. While rough early on in the project, many of those games develop into solid and worthwhile games by the end.

This game though, it's rough all around. The story is a little contrived and well-worn: a female police detective needs to investigate criminal behavior by tapping into her inner slut to root out the bad guys. However, the few choices the game presents early on aren't at all meaningful. In fact, the game seems to go out of it's way to illogically punish you for not immediately acting like a slut with your police superior. The moment-to-moment writing is incredibly lacking too. In many cases all you'll get is terse, uninspired descriptions or dialogue. It seems like much of the writing is just there to break up the art...which is also unoriginal. In some cases not even that much effort is put in, as you'll find yourself clicking on buttons, being shown a gif/jpg, and that's pretty much it.

It's not that I dislike HTML games that use the Sugarcube engine, nor is it that I hate games that use unoriginal ("real porn") art; The Company, for example, uses both and it's quite good. It's simply that there's nothing in this game to recommend it. And based on where it's currently at, it will have to travel a long long road to get to something worth your time.

This could be an interesting game. A police woman getting abused and slowly corrupted... thats the game it should be. But this game here is something like:
Be a slut or go to hell. BAD END.

Not worth yet. After 5 minutes clicking throught the game you saw all content.

Big fan of this type of game, love the concept but the delivery is poor.

You have to do the same thing over and over again until your slut score raises and then you get to the same things over and over again but with one extra scene.

In each location you see the same things over and over again until your lust is over 95 at which point you can see one new scene in that location and then you lust goes back to 0 so you have to grind it back up to 95 to see the extra scene in a new location. Its F 'in tedious, I have no idea how any one is expected to sit through this without using console commands.

Its another one of those where someone has a good idea for a story but no idea on how to actually design a game from a UX point of view.

Extremely short in terms of content, and even more bare boned.

Currently it's simply a short and unfinished narrative barely past the setup withnot a single choice to be had.

The writing is extremly weak, but understable english, act lacks any sort of erotic text, simply verbatium voice lines, leaning entirely on GIFs to imply action. That said, the GIFs are pretty solidly selected choices, and I didn't see any of odd sizes, odd playspeeds or garbage resolutions, so it's got that going for it.

That said, the core concept of it is extremely strong (undercover cop getting addicted to super Ectacy at a school). Lends well to corruption / mind control themes, blackmail and actually has the impotious to require the player to choose slutty / sexual options to try and get information / evade attention. Sadly none of it exists within the framework of the 'game' (which it isn't yet, as there's no choices, it's just a novel with a page worth of diaolog). But if it gets built up, it has a foundation to stand on, which is more than many games.
