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

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

What a wonderful game. I loved playing every second of it. The graphic details, especially the faces and their hair are nearly perfect. The story arcs are interesting and invite to play it several times again.

if you want a story based game with some action,drama and sensual romance [this is your game]

if what you want is to just fap on some animation and sex scenes [this game isn't for you]

really i cannot thank the developer enough for this great game and do you know what is the greet about it that some how i control the ending ...because i have played a greet game some days a go and the end was terrible for me and everyone [without mentioning the game name]

so let's collect all in a simple way

what is good

-greet story [+]
-great animations [+]
-sensual romantic scenes [+]
-decisions influence the story progress [+]
-great sex scenes [+]
-great characters behaviors [+]

what is bad

-cuckold scenes [-]

______________________________________________
specific fetishes in this game and how to avoid it

rape [some of them avoidable]
---you can avoid the rape to any of your girls but if the girl isn't yours then no way
---to avoid any rape scene for any of your girl when you go to rescue one of your girl don't wait outside for too much just go to help as quick as you can
cuckold [all of them avoidable]
--to avoid watching your girl fucked in front of you just when you are about to rescue a girl
make it as quickly as possible don't wait i mean you will have two choices
wait
enter the house [ex]
so don't choose wait

there are no other fetishes you need to avoid the rest are good fetishes

at the end ...
the only thing i didn't like is a cuckold [one of the girl was about to be raped] but i managed to save her
so everything is fine with me

[one of the best games in this site]
the game deserve 5 stars

First review (spoilers of course).
One of the Best Story-Driven Erotic Visual Novels i seen on this adult game forum. One of the few visual novels that made me to create an account here.

With a cinematic feel, a Crime Mystery Erotic-Thriller with detailed characters, great character designs of all the ladies, glorious erotic scenes, and action scenes.
A story with a male protagonist with personality and ambitions. Ambitions to solve what at first seemed to be just a murder-mystery turns into something much deeper lurking and dark in Free City, dealing the case along with the help of ladies such as Carli and Mi-do. While in the middle of all this, the protagonist is also dealing with his broken personal life, from divorcing his criminal wife to lack of money from jobs. Then, he’s life is comforted & renewed by the many girls who suddenly shows up in his life in Judy, Christina, Carli, Stella, and Mi-do and must do every he can to protect them.

In the Story, I liked how Christina was secretly working on the villain's side against the MC, but over time ending up caring and loving the MC & also Judy, having a change of heart. Somewhat close to the tropes "Villainesses Want Heroes" and a little bit of "Dating Catwoman". Wish i more visual novels would do something similar with a heroine on the villain's side falling for the MC.

Someone mentioned there should’ve been more kissing scenes, I agree and I’d say more cuddling and hugging during tender moments would’ve been nice and some longer sex scenes. Personally, i wished there was a single playthrough type of route/path (with something extra added to it), where all the scene weren't locked out due to previous choices, as most scenes should've been seen in one go.
Too bad there wasn’t many ending with Lynn & MC having sexy time together or anything else in the main story.

For the good endings, you choosing from Mi-do, Judy, and Carli as the MC’s main lover. Mi-do ending you traveling on vacation with her. Judy & Carli endings are pretty such the same, just focusing more on whoever you chose, in both, Carli starts doing business with the MC while he’s still in an intimate relationship with Judy. Judy ending, Christina is included, the trio staying happily together and some cosplay with Judy. Carli ending, more sexy time at office and if chosen correctly a short, but awesome foursome bonus ending with Carli, Judy, & Christina.

Personally, if I had it my way I would’ve all the endings combined as just one big single good ending, one sexy happy harem ending, with the MC vacationing with Mi-do while visiting her family, then travel back home to Judy, Christina & Carli, saving more girls and preventing another Stella or Dragon Lady or Kira from happening. Heck you know what, in that ending include Kira too, giving her salvation (maybe have her help MC & Carli’s detective work) and the MC have occasional encounters with Miss Turner and Lynn (maybe helped her with a singing gig). And finally, have a bandaged up Stella in a hospital healing at the end (would've worked more too, if Depraved Awakening had cyberpunk setting with the advanced technology). While Stella's death was served with justice in the end, not completely being in vain, i can still believe & dream this can happen, having extra alternate stories & endings.

Wouldn't mind a short sequel, like a 2-week vacation of the MC spending time with all the girls. With Individual & select group scenes.

Random idea for a somewhat believable full-length sequel, maybe the MC's ex-wife break out of prison to get back at him and there's some new big criminal causing havoc in next the city closest to Free City and the MC is asked to help stop the criminal and stop it from spreading into Free City.

Anyway, looking forward to Philly's next story "City of Broken Dreamers".

Very nice game with a noir setting that I'm a big fan of. Main hero is way too good guy for my own taste but nothing too cry about. Lovely ladies, nice ladies, hot scenes and I know I will want to replay it at one time so big kudos and thanks.

This is easily the beste sex game I ever played.
There are believable characters, really sexy kinks, the overall mood is amazing.

Also the story can hold up on its on, its a decent film noir story with a few choices for you. This game is amazing and you should play it.

Eh, the game isn't Depraved enough... 1/5.

All jokes aside, if you still haven't played this game you're either new to adult gaming or have been living under a rock. This masterpiece is consistently regarded as one of the top 5 games available. Gorgeous girls, stunning composition and lighting, and the story is phenomenal. This isn't just your standard "meet & fuck" game. You will become attached to the characters and hooked on the story.

Best game I've played here. Satrted with Lop games but this is much better.
Girls and renders are awesome and the story is neat.
Would love to see more submissive and bdsm content with some gadgets.

I just enjoyed playing this game amazing story and allot of sex. Dialog was good and it didn't lack in anything, and i liked the graphics too. So im rating it with 5 stars and i hope developer will continue to make games.

One of the best games I played! High quality, great art and scenes, good animations. Interesting, enjoyable story line. Hope I find more games like this. A heads up tho, get prepared for the feels.

The best of all, without a doubt, intriguing and engaging story with complex and interesting characters, soundtrack that falls like a glove in the setting of the game
several choices and consequences, several endings including some secrets, thrills to the skin, the best animations I have ever seen, replay factor 10 \ 10, a true masterpiece,congratulations to the creators and look forward to the next project.

The art, the writing, the direction, and the story kept you captivated throughout the game and did not have any of the filler stuff that other games have to make it longer. This game is in a league of its own. I wish I had more money so I could comfortably support this dev.

One of the best games of this sort I've played so far. Very engagin story with just the right amounts of naughtiness and taboo. Only thing I would like to see is an ending where the guy gets all the girls instead of having to choose only one.

Engaging story, fun characters that improve, along with the graphics, as the game progresses, many and varied events and endings with a lot of replay value, and also pretty intensely erotic at times depending on your leanings...
Really liked and will play again and again.

I love this game, attractive storyline, great character. This is a game of the best detective genre and the real sex scenes are awesome. The characters in the game are very attractive and the plot of The game is fascinating
