HTML - Deep in Hollywood Inc. [v0.22d] [Ulysses Games]

great game, and a really good story with a nice protagonist, i cant wait to see how this unfolds! one of the best i really like this so far, i have played it twice just as did some mistakes so i did not have enough sub points. rated at 0.22

I really like it because the premise is so absurd that you'd hardly see any fault in it. It took me half a day to course through till the current update and I still haven't lost interest as the mc's character development isn't forced, it feels natural. Really interesting choices and overrall one of the best of its kind at the moment.

Just finished the latest update of Deep in Hollywood Inc. and wow, this game is such a ride. I’ve been playing since the early versions, and it just keeps getting better with every update. You play as Allie, a rookie cop in L.A. who’s thrown straight into an undercover mission in Hollywood. What starts as a serious-sounding assignment quickly turns into a messy, risky, and morally flexible spiral the deeper you go.

The vibe is hilarious and self-aware, it’s not just “here’s a sexy scene, now move along.” Sure, you can play it straight, but where’s the fun in that? Leaning into the “dumb blonde cop” choices is where the game shines. There’s this perfect mix of humor, tension, and slow-burn corruption that makes every new day feel like a gamble, how far will she go this time?

The writing is sharper than you’d expect from an HTML game. The situations Allie gets into are genuinely funny, and the choices you make actually matter. Some will lock you out of scenes, others will open entirely new ones, and it never feels like you’re just clicking through filler. The pacing stays tight, no endless sandbox grind, no repetitive chores to unlock content. The stat system has been streamlined in recent updates, removing the grindy bits so you can just focus on the story and characters. The QTE moments are used sparingly but effectively, adding a bit of interactivity without becoming annoying. The latest additions, including a new day in Allie’s life and some extra events, were fantastic IMHO.

Visually, it’s all real-life images and videos, and whoever’s curating them nails the tone every time, whether it’s Hollywood glam or grimy backroom deals. And Allie herself is a big part of the draw: charming, a little naive, and dangerously easy to root for as she gets pulled deeper into this world of crime and temptation.

It’s still in development, so you’ll run through the current content faster than you’d like, but what’s here is polished, sexy, and genuinely entertaining. If the updates keep this momentum, Deep in Hollywood Inc. could easily become one of the standout female-protagonist corruption games out there.

Overall a very nice game
The pacing is very well done; I didn't feel the urge to cheat the stats and just let the story play out. The side stories tie into Allie's progression toward depravity really well and make it not seem repetitive. The timing aspects, both having to react quickly and having to linger/bask in the moment a bit more, are interesting and innovative, yet not overdone. Although I did find myself rolling back the engine here and there to make sure I wasn't missing anything, especially when the scroll bar changed due to a different amount of text and the timed link was further down below the page.

Looking forward to:

• Getting more and more daring with the bouncer and finally getting that D from Mr. D.
• The stalker storyline
• The gloryhole

The only thing making me hesitant to give this a 5-star is the overall look and feel. The text masks made the title and the map hub harder to read, the font takes some getting used to in the beginning, and the screen tends to feel quite busy all the time. I don't know if making all the backgrounds less prominent will help with this or I'm just getting old XD

But well done

A funny and sexy experience. I'm surprised to see a lot of people call the game grindy because to me that has always implied having to take a break from the main game to go do repeatable content. This has some pros and cons, pros being I'm not forced to go back and do chores to enable sexy, but cons that if you don't make certain choices early on you can permanently miss out on certain scenes (as an example, you have to follow a very specific route through the start of the game to be able to show your tits to your boss at the nightclub). The other downside to it being more linear over open world is when you reach the final day of the current update, you can't just keep messing around, things just go on pause until the next update.

With the review of the structure out of the way, I will say that this game especially appeals to me as a submissive woman. You will spend a lot of this game getting bossed around and told what to do (though it's generally up to you if you listen or not), sometimes casually, sometimes firmly. I haven't found any other HTML games that deliver on that front anywhere near as well as this one. That alone leaves me super excited whenever updates for this game drop, and I hope it can continue to deliver on that front. If you're looking to have that sub itch scratched, this is a good place to look.

great game that seems to have lots of scope. the game has not jumped the shark yet like many others do. and an actual game system within the writing. 200 characters is too much just wrinting to fill the 200 character requirement now

Excellent use of real porn images, a potentially interesting story of an undercover cop working for the mob and nice game design are the highlights here, but the game is dragged down by lack of content and absolutely abysmal English (a fatal flaw for an HTML game). Also the stats gatekeeping that blocks access to story choices is particularly obnoxious.

Not worth playing until the content at least doubles and the dev finds a proofreader for the script.

Was eager to try this because of the high rating but I am quite surprised its received so well. Here are my main issues-

• Quite grindy gameplay loop from early on.
• Very sparse on content. We are on v0.18 and our character still hardly does anything.
• You have to make specific choices early on to get the most content which is already low

For pros, the main character is quite charming. I assume that is the main reason for the high ratings. I probably wont be playing this unless we get a whole bunch more content

This game is a study in contrasts. On the one hand, it breaks no new ground -- it's a real porn HTML with corruption mechanics. In essence, it's not different in kind from a thousand other games.

On the other hand, everything it does, it does superbly. It's sexy as hell and funny as a good night at the comedy club, it's got terrific characterization expertly drawn very quickly after you meet each character, it's got enough of a story to keep you interested, and it makes me look forward to every single update.

4 stars only because of the relatively slow updates. It feels like the amount of content here should have been produced more quickly. it's not an egregious thing, and for all I know the dev has a million other things going on and can only get to this in odd moments. The content that exists is 5-star content, but then quantity is a quality all its own.

An encouraging start.
A lot of very sexy and imaginative things, very well chosen pictures, in it's current state the game is nicely structured (you don't get the feeling that it isn't going anywhere) and I wish it remains that way with the addition of more content.
The only thing I don't understand is, in this type of game, why would you make the scenes less fun and interesting if the player doesn't have enough stats ? In a game with repeatable events where you have to grind stats it makes sense because it gives the player an incentive to play, but why do it in a game where the events are unique ? the only thing it does is to frustrate the player, and add work for the dev.
But anyway, great start !

A good and interesting game in which there is a plot, nice design, variability (something really depends on the player’s choice, and not like in a typical VN). The biggest (and only) disadvantage is the need to develop this or that characteristic as much as possible. If you missed a small event to level up your depravity, replay the entire game again, since you won’t see any more scenes. I hope this approach will be slightly improved.
I wish the author success and all the best.)

One of the best HTML - real porn games on the web!

It's uniquely themed.
The story is funny and the choices are fun to select from.
Girls are hot. props to the dev for spending time selecting good material.

After seeing this one a couple of times, I decided to give it a try and I am glad I did. Probably the score would be a 4.5 as there are a couple things I would like to see improved, but it was still a very good game and a very enjoyable experience.

I really like FMC games, and this one has the usual tropes of the corruption ones, but also some original elements to it. I really like how the paper doll is done, the pictures have a lot of consistency between them. I liked the H scenes as well, they were well chosen and I liked that I had mostly a choice of what to do.

Here is where I would improve a small thing. I do not like when points are a barrier to do something, and in this game for some scenes, you need to have unlocked some points, and some are a bit hidden.

How would I prefer it? well, I would like if you could do what you wanted, and instead the points just changed how people saw you/interacted with you or, alternatively, they opened additional things to do.

For example, and as a minor spoiler, at one point you are in a bar, you need to convince a thug to come with you, and he asks you to dance and then to lift your tshirt, by this point you have already lifted it a couple of times in other situations, but the game asks you to have certain amount of points in exhibitionism and submissive before you can do it here. Why? not doing it has an impact on getting the thug out, the whole purpose of you being here, and your character has already done this without issue, so why not here?

I would prefer if this decision was not blocked behind points but, instead, you do it if you choose to, and then, if you have enough points in exhibitionism + submissive, maybe invite him to cop a feel? maybe have him degrade you and you accepting it? variations in scene/dialogue, but not blocking content.

Other than that, the game is a bit on the short side, but what is there is good and fun.

I am looking forward to the next updates.

Great story line and dialogues, continue the flow. please don't make it to grind. will be helpful to reconsider the options selected earlier, or to have a variable editor. Looking forward to it, hope the future updates can be released in patches rather than downloading the whole content again

The game has made a huge leap in content and quality with this release and I strongly recommend playing it for fun. You could also tweak with the usual tools some depravity points or others to see more scenes already now.

Really solid! Writing flows well and is decently funny. I like how the various choices you can make have proper bearing on future choices, but it seems as though some paths offer more content than others at the moment, and there aren't too many different paths for a given event at the moment. It's also fairly short at the moment, but you can spend a good amount of time replaying to see all the paths.
Great start and interested to see where it ends up.

It's good! Sounds like there were some contentious choices the developer made for the game that have since been changed. At this point, it's just a good HTML game. Good writing, sexy choices. Seems there are actually some branching choices, hoping that continues and that it's not completely linear.

So far so good. If you're into Twine/Sugarcube corruption games, you'll enjoy this one. It's short so far though. I like quick time events and various paths leading to different developments. Overall quality of the game is promising too. Will definitely revisit this game.

Good looking game with a fun premise, but the execution of the design is deeply flawed.

1. The game uses QTE. You have to quickly scan the paragraph on the page to see if you can see which option is about to disappear, and then click on it before it goes away (after maybe 4 seconds). This is terribly irritating, especially as you don't know the significance of the event you missed (it might just be eye candy, but it might be an important clue). QTE should either be eliminated or restricted to the eye candy, so players can ignore it.
2. Choices are gated by the player's stats. Generally, you can only gain stat points by meeting the gate of a decision, so one wrong move early in the game means that you will never meet any gates and so never see a lot of the material.

On the plus side, there is no grind and, by cheating at the start, the player can avoid the trap of never meeting any stat requirements. Once the stats are cheated up, the game plays quite well.

I'd advise waiting to play this if you unwilling to cheat. The dev is new to this, and will surely fix some of the irritating features. If you are willing to cheat, then play on and enjoy.

Edit: this review and rating was for the 0.12a version of the game and both are subject to revision as the game is further developed.

Rating v0.12:
This is the second release, I believe. It's a cool game: good mechanics, good images and yes, dum but in a self-aware kind of way. Perhaps if there wasn't the anti-cheat system, people would be less frustrated (now it means that you actually need to play the game, OMG). I hope the updates carry on coming!
