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

the story is great, the pacing of the story is just perfect and the models used are just perfect. one of the best games games on this site. never thought i was actually care about the story in a porn game. so damn good.

This game has one of the best stories out there, great visuals and renders and characters and dialogue are very well build. This game has it all , sadly to say this game is under rated should be in popular section

Story: A hard-boiled detective story. You investigate a suicide that is more than it seems leading to underground auctions, human trafficking, a femme fatale, and impure desires for an innocent.

Visuals: I am the dark, I am the night, I am batman! Scenes set in the night get a bit grainy. More frames would probably make the animated scenes more fluid.

Version 0.7

What is surprising is that I did not write review yet for this great game. Plot wise is superb couse we are a damn Detective in action! Many chicks to bang, rescue or date. Deep plot which is damn rare in this type of games and mature content. Many choices before each player, some choices will make small ripples in this plot, others damn big even to killing off some characters included. If you like detective stories or damn erotic ones. Its something for you!

This game has a surprisingly interesting story that is entertaining on it's own merit even without the sexual content. Choices are meaningful and impact the course of events. lots of varied and interesting characters to interact with as well. There's also a nice noir film feel to the whole experience.

Outstanding game. There are plenty of branching paths and hot women, all of whom are well rounded and developed. There are plenty of sexually charged scenes, and the graphics are simply gorgeous. The story is intriguing too, with a refreshing noir vibe to it. Would definitely recommend to anyone on F95.

One of the best games here
Definitely worth checking out
The story is rich and nuanced
The characters are deep and intriguing
The scenes are all intense and amazing
Even if 3d isn't your thing, I really recommend giving it a shot

This is really good, sex early on and a Great story I am wanting to know how the story ends almost as much as I want to fuck Carli again. This writer needs to finish this fast because when this talent gets out we wont be able to review the games here any longer. Best VN i've played yet.

That first sequence of story hits, and I can't help but go: why is a PI allowed to interview the spouse at a potential crime scene? And why is this PI taking on a case for no pay?

But then I reminded myself that this isn't RL and kept playing/reading. It's very well done. Great scenes, beautiful characters. The "animations" are strung together well, and the game does a very good job of catering to to the lighter intracacies of lust development outside of the actual sex.

As of v.7, there's a few different branches that give it a degree of replay-ability (content-wise). I enjoy this one.

Story - 4 out of 5
pretty compelling, also has many surprising elements that left me amazed.

Music-5 out of 5
It suits the feel of the game, a bit Noir detective-esque, but not too old to be shunned by people who don't like the stuff.

Art-4.5 out of 5
the lighting and smooth 3d renditions are great, the only nitpick I have is that some faces change drastically when angled at a certain shot. sometimes I get confused. but Christina makes up for all of those. #BestGirl

Additional: bumped it up from 3.5 to 4.5 since everything since the update felt solid. plus the animations for the CG scenes are awesome. also, Goodbye Christina, hello Dragon #BestGirl

Gameplay5 out of 5
The point system is a pretty good addition for a more strategic gameplay instead of the linear branched path.

Edit:
So I just finished the entire story (1.0) and man, I was blown away. I've never felt Horny, Happy and Sad at the same time.

Finally a good quality game. Has an actual plot that's interesting unlike most VNs on the site. The music complements the atmosphere well and the renders are good. Large and meaningful updates which actaully progress the story! Not sure whether the dev has a large team or if other devs are lazy af.

One of the very best games on the site.

The story is deep, interesting, and a refreshing change of pace from the games you typically see here. It's got action, mystery, and even some darker themes if you're into those.

The renders are top notch, and Philly is not shy about giving you adult content with every release. Stunning use of lights, wet effects, etc.. and the slowly animated "pinup" shots are my favorite.

I continue to be impressed with every update, as they keep getting better and better. I hope more folks play and support his game, it's certainly worth your time.

A high quality work with a unique dark themed story, unlike most other games this one's choices matter a lot & it makes you feel in control of your immediate surroundings at least which is highly refreshing, the characters are well designed & have different personalities & backgrounds, the atmosphere & the transition from scene to scene & event to event are all top notch, the writing is mature and clearly targets adults which should be the case for everything else released in here but this is sadly an exception, without ranting too much if you're into games that make you go prepare a coffee instead of tissues only don't miss on this one. A well deserved 5/5 from me SUPPORT THE DEV

One of the better games out there atm.

Story, setting, charaters, scenes, pace, fetishes. Everything is carefully handle, and result in very high quality in both story, and sexual content.

Make yourself a favor, and give it a shot. I doubt you will regret it.

This game is amazing great graphics compelling characters just awesome. There's 5 characters each with different personalities so it's like five games in one XD. I cannot express how much higher I think this game should be on the totem poll on this website.

This is one of those rare games that are intriguing, keeping you on the edge, with choices you make having consequences. The storyline has the old detective feel to it, backed up really well by top notch narrative. The sex scenes, designs, everything about this game is nothing less than the best

The following review is based off my personal experience with playing this Game/Visual Novel... I try to be as brutally honest and detailed as I can, and these are my own opinions and thoughts, from one or more play throughs... The version this review is based on is v0.6...


This visual novel/game is detective mystery with lots of depravity and sex... With a hint of possible Family Sex occurring as well (between the main villain and villainess)...

The visuals of the characters, when static, are very well done, but during a few animations they take on a more plastic type skin, which I assume is the attempt to show them being sweaty... But it actually degrades the characters visual skin quality slightly, rather then looking actually wet... The shower scene with Judy's skin looked actually wet without degrading the skin quality... The backdrops, albeit most of them tended to be dark, looked unique and had good quality... Most scenes looked great with decent camera angles and felt very professional looking...

The script has pretty good as I rarely say any spelling/grammar errors... The plot revolves around a male protagonist former cop turned private detective... The plot mostly deals with investigating a murder made to look like a suicide, of a client the protagonist had... The story pretty much plays out with the protagonist trying to find out what happened and discovering along the way, about a depraved private sex club/sex slave auction for the rich... Along the way he runs into several different women, all of which he has an opportunity to have sex with depending on choices...

There are stats to worry about, that include a Score and Lust level for each female character, as well as a Depravity level for the protagonist... These all, along with choices you make, will determine the course and available scenes during play through...

Now, even though this visual novel/game looks to be put together fairly well, there are several things that annoyed me... First was the fact that this VN/game has player punishment dead ends... One of my pet peeves is dead ends, as I hate them a lot... There are not a lot of them, but there are several paths that will lead to dead ends... And I absolutely hate having to go back to a save, or start over, just to get back to a different choice or because the stats I received were not good enough... It creates so much frustration to have to feel that a walkthrough is required, unless I make a save file at every freaking choice I have to make, just to be safe... And without a walkthrough, you will not even know if the scores you have are good enough for certain scenes or in order to avoid those dead ends...

Originally, this review had a lot of negative things to say about the way the story seemed to be progressing with regards to the villains going after Judy and protagonist... But after a buddy of mine read my review and played the VN/game to the very end (which I did not do because it was getting me angry and tense), he recommended I play it again but to use the walkthrough this time, so I could see how things really played out...

So I played through it a second time, and I have to somewhat apologize for my prior concerns about the direction the story was going... I felt as though some really horrible things might be about to happen to Judy, and the protagonist could do nothing to stop it, at least based off the choices I was presented with... I hence learned that it isn't taking as awful a turn for the worse as I thought it might be... It is going more of a blackmail and/or setup route, which I don't have as much of a problem with... I thought surely something truly depraved and disgusting was going to happen to Judy, but it doesn't (for the moment) look as though that is really happening... It is more like a setup for something else, not so physically or mentally scaring for the protagonist and his step daughter...

Overall, it is well put together and has pretty decent visuals most of the time, but I did have some issues with the dead ends that almost force you to have to play with a walkthrough, unless you have a lot of time to waste going through the thing over and over... Will I retry this one again? Probably yes...

Story: 5/5. Renders: 5/5. Characters: 5/5. It’s the best game of its sort I’ve ever played. Period. Seriously. If you haven’t played it yet — download immediately. You may thank me later. After you’re done cleaning up, of course.

Great little game with sexy women that goes to the action immediately. A nice break from the slow starts of big brother, DMD, etc

It is also nice to play something that isn't about incest. The story is based around a murder-mystery and a secret sexclub, while you are also trying to fuck your secretary.

deserves way more attention than it's currently getting

Unexpected gem. This is a VN like they VN's should be. It tells a story from the protagonists perspective, letting you as the player making decisions along the way. The story is set up as a modern noire story. The private eye, the dark, depressing setting and of course the femme fatale. The background music adds to the story, it isn't intrusive and though it repeats itself, never seems to bother. For those looking for a nice story driven VN without strange plot jumps or poorly written lines, please check this one out. I sure hope the creator can keep it up and doesn't branch out too much.

STORY: ****
