HTML - Degrees of Lewdity [v0.5.0.6] [Vrelnir]

This is my favorite adult game i've played so far. It's a sadbox game about living in a very perverted world with different love interests, secrets, jobs. activities, events and more and it's constantly improving with frequent updates. The main problem i have is that there's not enough of it but vrel is actively listening to feedback and taking suggestions from the community to create more content. Try it and you won't be dissapointed.
PS: Whitney is best

I don't usually write reviews here, as I rarely 'finish' games to the point where I feel justified in reviewing them. DoL is an exception though, I just keep coming back again and again. There is so much content, so much replay value and so much variety! It is an open world game with very detailed character customization (player and NPCs) and a loong list of fetishes (most of which are optional). You can easily find a playstyle that suits you, or experiment with different characters. I usually have a few different saves at any time with characters that I play very differently.

And let's not forget the updates! This game has frequent and regular updates, as well as a very responsive and involved developer who really listens to his players. The updates are usually massive, adding loads of new content every time. Bugs are patched quickly in smaller bugfix-updates (that may or may not also contain more content!)

Oh yeah and it's all free. So yeah, 5/5 game, 5/5 developer, I really can't find much to complain about except maybe that I'd wish for more artwork if at all possible (even though it is primarily a text-based game).

Well great game, the only thing that's missing is "Purity Guy Submissive NPC" !
Joke's aside, you can do bassiclay whatever you want in this game.
The story is good, the customization is great.
Also the discord is wild and the suport from the community is great.
If i have one thing that i dont like and also like its that the game it's not finished yet.
Enjoy it degenerates !

So this game hooked me by the tags it is given, and a few of the images. I always like the wild and crazy ones. I've been playing v0.2.22.6 for a few days now. I haven't really reached an end on my first save/playthrough. Or rather something that I can say "yep this is a good place to stop."

I enjoy the writing of it, and really everything there is to do. The wiki is your friend. I only have two minor critiques. The first is the payment ramp. It goes to max so fast. Honestly I'm not sure I would have been able to keep up with it had I not been curious as to what would happen if I said "no". I made sure that I could cover the bill when ever I did that though. Which I'm glad because as soon as I made my escapes the first thing when I came back was "where's my money?" On that note I would have much rather have it that once the "Underground Brothel" as is, that MC would then randomly be sold to any of the four places. Making it a gamble to say "no" again.

The second thing is the combat related traits I've read about on the wiki. Cumdump, Fucktoy, Bitch, ect. And just how many times each of them take. Like I said I've been playing this game for a couple of days now, with little breaks. And I still haven't even gotten one of them. I feel like they could use their own scale as MC is worked up to the end of the trait, because they are almost presented as a good thing to have, just getting there is taking forever.

One more small thing, that I would love to see is a skimpy school outfit, sure you have a short school skirt, but I'm trying to turn MC into the school slut here...

To me these are just small things and there is probably more of the game to explore that I haven't found because I was too scared to wander off. The Asylum gets a little boring... Anyhoosie, I do give this game five stars. It has kept me interested and I plan on going right back to it. Just felt I had played enough to give some honest feedback and rating.

DoL is a tense game, where it's your character against the whole world, but it's a good kind of tense. You can feel that the game wants you to suffer, but it provides you with tools to come out on top. You may lose a couple of characters at first or fail to progress in some directions, but a couple characters later it becomes clear that there are a lot of things that you can track or do to gradually gain control.

However, it's still a WIP game, and I can't call it a 11/10 masterpiece. Some things are obviously missing, and there's pretty much no late game. If you manage to earn a lot of money, there isn't that much to do with it. You can't buy or rent an apartment, for example.
Relationship lines feel a bit radical, though maybe it's just me. I dunno, they seem to cross that line between dumb porn tropes and a hardcore grim scenario.

It's still a surprisingly detailed game for something almost completely text-based, and it's definitely worth checking out, even though it's not for everyone. I can't even imagine how much good, polished and detailed content this game is going to have in later versions.

In my opinion truly a masterwork of depravity.
At first i was shocked twhen i saw that this is an textadventure and played a bit purely out of curiosity. Why would anyone play a h-textadventure i thought.
Well it hooked me and now i come back from time to time and sink in a few hours.
What ive seen of the updates is satisfactory and i didnt even knew i missed contend.

Give it a try and enjoy ur stay as an orphan in rapetown^.^

-A few mistakes in grammar, otherwise well written.
-Plays like an management/turn based rpg
-Freedom of choice except from a few scipted events
-Many different kinks integrated
-Sandboxgame/reach a bad ending but keep going
-textadventure with little pixelanimations
-interesting really dark world

I've been playing Degrees of Lewdity for a bunch of hours now, and it is time to make a review.

This game was the first text-based game that I've played and I'm happily surprised with how good it is. I had the game recommended when I asked for games with a dark setting - but also where you could choose the personality. I will say, this game hits pretty straight here, and that is nice.

You have loads of choice in this game, especially with the customization of the character. You can choose female, male and transgender. It is rare to have that much customization. While the world itself is not dark, the setting sort of is, as you live in an abusive orphanage.

I will say that a real litmus test of any game is how well it allows you to play in your desired way. Obviously, there are some caveats to that - for instance when playing Geralt of Rivia you will have of course have to adapt to the character's personality.

Anyways, this game allows you to play however you like. Do you want to be a submissive push-over or a defiant person who stands up for them self? Do you want to give the bully his way, sway the weirdo or help your best friend? You decide, and that is great.

Alright, so let me break it down for some fast(er) reading.


The good:

• Many different things to do and explore.
• A real choice on how you want your character to be. This is probably the real strength of this game.
• Actual pressure to make money and pay-up.
• Many stats, and they are easy to find and view.
• A huge amount of customization - both with the character and in terms of clothing.
• Peculiar art. I put it under good because it is quite different than most. It's not really something that turns me on, but that isn't the point of a text-based game I feel.
• There are many traits - and that is pretty cool as you get them depending on your play style. Though, can you really only be an angel if you are a virgin - does that actually make sense? I don't think so, but this is probably not the place for that discussion.

The in-between

• It took me some time to realize, but nonetheless the game becomes quite grindy. Especially the school days feels very repetitive busy-work. There should be ways to either mitigate them or make them more interesting. For instance a school trip to the lake or farms.
• Various characters can become infatuated with you. I think it would be interesting if I could pick my own love interest. Sure, someone may be into the MC, but that doesn't make it mutual. Currently it makes it mutual, and I find it quite annoying when my character exclaims "I'm already in a relationship with X" when my character isn't.
• The possibility of being assaulted needs to be balanced. Currently, you can get assaulted in broad daylight on the beach, bus or wherever. It's honestly a bit much and it breaks the immersion. Yes, I know the MC is attractive, but still.

The bad:

• The game needs a better journal/quest system - I've missed time-sensitive events because of a lack of reminders.
• There are times where the dialogue simply doesn't make sense. I will keep it spoiler-free, but for instance a very shy person goes from "ple-please have sex with me" and if you agree they immediatly goes to "you like that you slut?". It doesn't really make much sense and it breaks character. Or having consensual sex also sometimes use the same lines that a sexual assault use.
• A bit more information on how and where to find quests would be pretty neat. The information is not that well conveyed in the game.

I hope this review was helpful to you!

the best text sex simulator game i've ever played ( actually the first one but anyways ) I wish there were more games like this or some more story update to the game, I think I've played too much and there are no more contents

This game has an amazing amount of depth without putting wall after wall of text in front of you. It's a sandbox game with a couple lose conditions and an achievement system to give you some goals if you need some direction.

This Is a Really good game for the simple reason being: Its not a generic visual novel like half the things on the front page. and also it gives you alot of things to shape your charactors personality in a way not many games like this will do.

After playing this game for a long time, i've decided to finally give the praise it deserves. This masterpiece in the making is essentially a sandbox with endless posibilities, it just amazes me how after all the time that i've played it i still managed to find new events or encounters, like kicking my brain into a sense of wonder that's pretty difficult to find nowadays.
With that said, this is just an early stage of a game i love, it needs polish and a direct upgrade to de defiant system, and domination overall, but i will be there, waiting, because this game deserves my attention and my energy.
If the creator sees this review, thank you for pouring your heart and mind into this game. I will see how this project goes, thrilled.

very fun and addictive RPG with lots of pussibilities. The customisation of the character, world and people you meet is awesome and the depth of the characters and interactions is very cool. The optionnal fetishes is a very nice touch.

One of the best games out there. In my opinion it is more enjoyable if you're into being submissive, but a dom path can be played.
The gameplay is good, the world is unique and the events are really hot.
Has a lot of fetishes, highly configurable experience and lots of mechanics to explore.
It's reeeeeally worth a try, I've played multiple runs for a long time and the consistence updates make for an unique experience each time.

Devs have made an incredible game here, would love to see something similiar but set in a viking or medieval japan setting

I've been playing this game for 2 years, and I can say, that this is a pretty great game. In order to survive, you have to be either be full submissive or full defiant, in terms of battle. It is a fairly hard game, especially on its early days, but if you want to play it, I recommend starting a game with cheats first to be accustomed to the gameplay before switching to a playthrough without one.

Back then, I mostly focus on stealing till I get 500 pounds, before getting a stable job at the strip club as a bartender, now there are even more job options that doesn't directly involve stealing and prostituting!

This game has a wholesome story and is very open to everyone who wants to play it. Want to play a straight, gay or bi? Adjust the settings. Don't like rape? Soft mode. Uncomfortable with tentacles and sorts of icky stuff? Turn it off. Want to play a full virgin? Chastity belt/cage & or Pledge yourself to the cult church. Want incest? Just imagine Robin as your little/twin brother/sister. Want NTR/cucking? That would be mean but having Robin as your boyfriend/girlfriend then keep cheating on them via kissing Kylar and or sexing Whitney counts. There's stuff for everyone (except for pregophiles, guro fetishist and doms, because pregnancy isn't in the game yet, the only time you get to dom and guro for obvious reasons)! The some of the story and scenes in this game are so wholesome, that some people don't just play this game to fap anymore and even got attached to characters.

The best part of this game? It's free.

Without a doubt one of the best games I've ever found on this site. Near endless possibilities for character designs, practically every fetish you can think of, incredibly detailed option settings, and a completely open sandbox to explore; it's honestly impressive to see all this in one game. Not to mention frequent updates for both additional content and bug fixes.

My only real nitpick is that it gets a little grindy going through the school day over and over with infrequent events. Maybe adding a gym, assembly hall, or some clubs after school could provide some variety, but like I said, just a little nitpick of mine, still an amazing game.

I can do anything, this game has lots of freedom. It's down right American. I can be a cat boy, maid girl, demon boy, wear whatever outfit i can think of (except storm trooper armor : ( ). It's got story and quests (sort of). It's worth spending some time on to check out.

This is a game that I wanted to make but didn't know existed! Writing is top-notch and character building focuses on quality over quantity. In terms of content, the game covers a lot of themes that appeal to me, including:
- power struggle in combat involving violent and sexual attacks (being able to redirect sexual attacks using areas that would result in less damage, and having pain as part of the equation, all makes combat very interesting and immersive)
- character appearance having mechanical impact (beauty and allure affects a lot of things)
- forced body writing (with potential "permanency")
- body modification (to some extent with accompanying visual representation)

With the current engine, the game already has a great foundation. The biggest limitation is probably the graphical avatar and animations style. While these are impressively done (especially with how many clothing items are in the game), they do not represent:
- different beauty levels (all faces are the same, and only the PC gets a full figure)
- different butt sizes (dynamic hip width would make all clothing sprites way more complicated)
- many clothings don't seem to have combat animations (only avatar sprites)

These misgivings should be minor compared to the pros of the game. I would be satisfied with no engine/mechanical changes and just content additions, preferably expanding the body writing/tattoo content, adding piercing content, and adding more involuntary clothing.

One of my all time favorites. It's mostly text-based, so if you're looking for scenes to view, you might come up short, but it does have a very good series of animated gifs for lewd scenes.
This is a pure sandbox game, but there's lots to explore, and the developer updates regularly with new content and bugfixes.
Tons of fetishes to explore, but you can easily change the settings to limit what kinks you'll see, even going so far as to make the entire population a specific gender.
A fun pick if you're looking for a lust-filled journey, or even trying to challenge yourself to keep your virginity forever.

This game is fun, particularly its first few, maybe 5-10 hours. It starts off with a strong illusion of choice and possibilities. You create a character out of a selection of different background choices; things like gender, sexual experience, kinks, body part sensitivity etc. You're dropped into the game, and you're given a selection of places to go, and things to do. You start getting scenes dropped on you without expecting it, and at first its a good time until you realize they're all sorta the same. The people change, a couple words here and there change, a couple of your options during the act might change, but generally they're the same and there will be times where you just right click through the scene without even changing your choices. I hope they add a wider variety of content, particularly content that allows the player to become the dominant one.
Final word, I must say that letting the player see his character acting out whats happening with customizable sprites instead of jpgs like other "text based" games is a very good idea. I hope it becomes more common.
