VN - Ren'Py - Completed - Depraved Awakening [v1.0] [PhillyGames]

[EDIT] second going at this review. I was a little disappointed the first time I played the game, and left a mixed review for it. A year later, I gave it another go, less trying to find what I was looking for in it, and more giving it the opportunity to convince me about what the dev wanted to say.

So, I found the experience really enjoyable. Actually it has some great plot points, and what felt to me like forced before makes much more sense when you try to understand more the world in which the story happens.

All in all, I think it's a really great, dark and gloomy one, that you should try with an open mind. Enjoy!

Extremely good art, with great animations towards the end, very natural looking.

I enjoyed the wide variety of positions and whatnot in each scene, and lots of group and anal sex.

The "cutscenes" were a nice addition compared to other games, and the fact that there was background music was very welcome.

This game deserves every bit of fame it receives. The plot is just on another level considering it's a Ren'Py game, it's a cinematic experience. Detailed character development with tons of choices at almost every point in the plot, no matter how small the choice but it made some impact on the plot and appreciate how the devs managed to capture the choice based changes accordingly in the subsequent renders.

Sexy character Models (Graphics): 9.4/10 Overall Story, Considering choices: 8.9/10
Mojo: 10/10
Sex scenes (Vanilla) etc: 9.6/10
Fetishes: 7.5/10 (A little Rough sex and mild BDSM, Could've been awesome with toys, gags, collars, clamps)

It's one of those games you couldn't afford to miss!

This game has some twisted story to tell. I found it very immersing. it is great to see games that are not just some fuckfest, games that provide a background to characters and a good reading. The sex scenes just make it a complete experience. Good job PhillyGames ! Hope to play more games of yours.

For me it's the best one out there, so many choices and girls. The 3D models for the girls are pretty good and story is great. The story for itself is really intense and you can also feel connected to the characters. As it is now it has multiple endings. Maybe to much bad endings but that is my opinion.

Excellent game. This is the first time I got engaged with a story in an adult game. Renders are great, good diversity of characters as well as personalities and I loved the noir vibe in the game. A definite 5 stars for me!

I'm a sucker for any game that focuses as heavy on the story as it does on the sex scenes. As someone who loves a good crime drama, this is definitely in the top tier for me. It's dark and brutal at times, so don't go expecting a purely happy story. I just wish it was longer

Depraved Awakening has a lot going for it:
The film noir setting, taking on the role of a private eye, snooping around a vibrant city, an engaging crime story, interesting characters, beautiful women (although in my opinion some are also quite ugly), temptations, sex...

The story was a bit all over the place and sometimes difficult to follow, but it could still have been a 4 star game.

What I didn't like (and made me stop playing) was being forced into lewd scenes with characters I didn't feel attracted to - that's usually a mood killer for me.

I enjoyed this game so much that I started to learn Ren'Py code just to figure out how to unlock everything. I highly recommend this game and look forward to the next one this creator makes. I'm usually not a big fan of these kind of visuals as I've noticed that other games tend to have extremely similar models but it was refreshing to see the variety of new models and art in a visual novel!

Probably best adult not Japanese game i played!
Great graphics (models are excelent) , great story (deep and simple in same time ,have good noir feeling) and great endings! would change few things but thats personal taste, all in all pure 5 star!
Deep bow to author !

This is my absolute favorite adult game! None of the other games I've played have come anywhere close to this game's quality. First off, the story is gripping and exciting. You're a private detective whose last client mysteriously died so you investigate the circumstances surrounding his death. Lots of shit happens that I don't want to spoil, and there are emotional moments throughout, particularly one that brought me to tears.

The game is a visual novel, but your choices actually matter. There are a lot of decisions to make and they actually impact the story. You can be a hero and get romantic scenes and good endings, or you can be a villain and get DEPRAVED scenes and evil endings. I was playing a good guy route and I got a bad ending on my first playthrough, so the choices aren't obvious and the game has replayability. There's even a gallery that let's you replay scenes, which should be a must in every adult game.

The characters in this are also fantastic. The women are beautiful, but also all have their own personalities and problems and I actually felt for all of them and wanted to help them (playing through the evil routes was actually painful). I don't even know who my favorite girl is in this; I love all of them. The renders in this game, as a whole, are gorgeous. The sex scenes are also animated (thank you!) and cover a bunch of fetishes. Plus, your choices can make you get more and even better scenes with the characters. The villains in this are also fantastic, in that I hated all of them and wanted them to lose.

Overall, this game is a masterpiece and I thoroughly enjoyed my time playing and replaying this game to unlock everything. Thank you PhillyGames!

I've only played a few "adult games", but this one is definitely at the top. I can't see it being dethroned anytime soon. The story, the characters, the choices, the music, the scenes (hot!) and the women (very hot!) are all great.

Beautiful Story and characters, lots of sexual scene and more, this is one of the best adult game that i played, I strongly advise you to try this game, the best thing in this game in my opinion is the characters,their are so beautiful.

Philly you are my favorite. This game plays so well, replays so well, and it's at least a notch above every other production on this site. I'm eagerly looking forward to the next one. If anyone reading this is interested in playing this game, do so without hesitation. It's the best game on F95 in terms of balance of visuals, character design, and plot progression. You will not regret it.

4.5/5

Best looking renders I ever seen, hands down. Story is unique and keeps you on edge.

My only gripe is with one scenario which I will try not to spoil, but I doubt two people would engage in hardcore sex shortly after very dramatic event where one person is murdered, other was injured badly and another one was almost raped and killed even if there was feeling of gratitude involved. That just felt too easy and cheesy.

Even though I've been around here for quite some time, I've been on the short side of commenting and reviewing games but I do think I owe a review for this masterpiece.

There is a reason why it's "the" top rated game on this website. Everything about this game is done right. From exceptionally beautiful and sexy girls to the dark and deep story, from the many incredibly hot sex scenes to the great choice of music, this game should be an example for every game developer out there.

Both the quantity and the quality of content in the game is simply amazing. I literally find myself daydreaming about the girls of this game from time to time.

It's the only game I frequently visit back and I'm very eager to see the following works of @Philly_Games to come.

Nice story with great models and hot sex scenes. Multiple endings and paths to follow. I know that I shouldn't complain, but this could actually be far better with fewer sex scenes and more story. The game is great regardless

This is one of the best games I've ever played. The renders are outstanding!
The scenario is also great, with many routes, do you really need to think during dialogues, and make lots of saves.
Absolutely 5/5!

Highly recommended!

Literally COULD NOT STOP playing!

Game had me hooked from start to finish, so much so I played it right through in one sitting :O
Some great girls, great models and entertaining storyline - love the 'film noir' feel to the whole thing. I would've have preferred a few more options/paths and a little less predictability but still, great fun to play.

This game reads just like a crime novel. Very hard to stop playing. Excellent graphics and the characters seem very realistic. You will find yourself going back through to see all of the different outcomes. Great developer also. Very receptive to your inputs also. Thanks for a great one
