Ren'Py - Desert Stalker [v0.19.4] [Zetan]

This is totally top-drawer stuff! The writing and the lore are so real and immersive.
It creates a world where incest is completely natural and a normal part of society. After a while, you don't even give it a second thought...there is no demonising religion creating self-righteous moral frameworks and damning society with eternal sin. But it has that 'Mad Max', feel about it, where there is danger everywhere, at any moment.
This is a world where freedom actually exists, and choices are not bound by rules and regulations. The characters are unique and beautifully realised. Each one has hidden depths and secrets to uncover.
This is one of the best VN's you can play in my opinion.
It isn't perfect and I have issues with the UI being uncommunicative and confusing when you are at home.
It can be brutal in places, but you almost always get the option for lethal or non-lethal takedowns...I haven't killed a single person yet.
However, if this game world was reality, I wouldn't survive a day!

Holy - Ok, this is seriously one of the top games I've played on this site. The hot parts are incredibly hot. The relationships are deep, characters are unique, the art is outstanding, the choices actually feel like choices, the writing is brilliant, the universe is immersive, the story line is rich and entrancing, the extreme parts are extreme.. Just incredible.

And the NTR part is so refreshingly unique and perfect, way more hotwifey / stag then cuck - the character never feels humiliated from sharing his toys. They're his, there's no question they are his and he's choosing to share them, and the toys themselves easily remind anyone that thinks otherwise that they love the MC. But that's not the best part - the best part is that he is respectful of his love interests, and toys. There's a scene that blew me away - MC goes into a house w/ this very... pathetic stuck up prick. And the first thing he does is 'hey, you don't mind if I move this furniture around so I can sit with my wife? good 'cause I'm doing it'. The wife is his toy. He shares her easily, exposes her, she holds his dick as he fucks other toys, and kneels at his feet - and you can feel, constantly, the incredible amount of love and respect that he has for her, and she for him. In their humor, in their interactions with others, its just... Damn, this is the just the best freaking example of a D/s poly family in any freaking game or media that I've ever seen. Mad bloody props. Just.. I can't stop typing for how much I love this game already and want more of it

One of the better games on here.

+ Decent Story
+ Cute girls
+ Great music
+ Cinematic moments don't try too hard

++ Doesn't seem (so far) to lock you out of content for making the wrong choice

- Missing textures/normal/displacement maps in earlier version renders
- Sometimes it's unclear when a scene continues after time or requires a click
- Updates with unfinished quests

Overall, very good and recommended.

Amazing VN with all the angst of a post apolalyptic world and a bunch of weirdos with strange customs and where sharing your girls is as optional as fucking everything in sight. Like the story or not DesertStalker makes for a very entertaining or kitsch 2-3 hours of gameplay with a few kinky sex scenes thrown in. Those who rate this less than 3 stars are just jealous IMO. LOL.

The story is compelling and grim at the same time as it's set in a post apocalyptic future. the MC can be played either as a domineering ass with no restraints, somewhere in the middle or charismatic and diplomatic. The imaging is ok, the animations short and adequate. It's good porn with a solid story with elements of gaming that make it interesting as a pastime. As for the sharing content it's optional but it is nicely done. I don't understand the haters as IRL they are already sharing the LIs with 100,000 fappers on f95zone and elsewhere. In short, a well worth your time VN with many kinks, well suited for a porn forum.

I have played a lot of games; this one definitely falls in the top tier section. I don't write many reviews and ENG is not my first language, so i will just list pros and cons.

PROS:
- Amazing renders, especially the main characters.
- Captivating story. I personally do not like reading an essay in a porn game and skips the dialogues in a lot of games. Whatever shows up on the screen is interesting enough for me to read in this game lol.
- Caters to a lot of optional kinks. Having a lot of options on how a particular scenario can turn out is something I really liked about this game. Btw to the haters, if there's any optional content, and u decide to click on it, that's on u.
- Amazing soundtrack.
- MC is a baddass. U will definitely feel the power u have throughout the game. I don't know how else to explain that .

Cons:
- Not much really. I guess slow updates, but understandable considering the work dev puts into the renders. COPIUM Hopeful for a December update COPIUM.

Finally, few words on the CUTSCENES-
On one hand I think all the cutscenes are unique for this game and are done really well ... but on the other hand I feel like the cutscenes are time consuming to make and that somehow delays the project. Now, I could be completely wrong on that.

Also, I get the feeling that the dev loves making his cutscenes hehe..so I guess, keep it going!!

Overall, amazing game. One of my favorite game alongside Pale carnations and BADIK.

Desert stalker is really incredible. Renders look fantastic, setting and story is quite deep
Every girl is beautiful and unique
Every update is huge and immersive
I hope the dev keeps it that way, because if he plans to make 1.0 version and this is only 0.11, this game is going to become on of the best of adult vns

Character design-
This is one of the best post-apocalyptic theme game on the site. I think culture is heavily influenced with current cairo's culture.Even the characters that may seem ugly to some as mentioned in some comments are actual very similar to middle east asia. so i think culture and characters are pretty accurate.

Story and choices-
The story is also interesting with freedom to choose your own path and does not force you in any one direction, although some characters are thrown at you without much background which was somewhat disappointing. The raid feature is very interesting.

Negatives-
The step-daughter was only thing i didn't like about the story. It could have been executed in much refined manner. She had such a unique design but was given the role of mindless slut. A little bit of combat should be there to give the raid a little bit of more plus point.

Overall very good game story and graphics wise. Graphics and renders are more refined now. Thinking of supporting the dev.

Review for v0.10

Everyone once in a blue moon, you get an AVN that really stands out among the sea of mind-numbing incest/college games. Then, even rarer, you get games like Desert Stalker. Something that feels almost one of a kind as far as the porn game world goes.

This post-apocalyptic world is dirty, debauched, and cruel. Funnily enough, that's pretty great when you're playing as an established badass who can (optionally) not take shit from anyone.

As the overview and game name states, we're playing as a Desert Stalker. You could think of it as being, in some ways, a direct hand of the queen we serve. This means we have a lot of benefits. Status, wealth, our own land, and the skills to back all of this up. What I'm getting at is that we're playing as a somebody in this world, which I think is a fun twist on the standard "survivor in a post-apocalyptic world."

I took a jab at incest games earlier, but to top it all off we have a harem consisting of a devoted wife and two loving daughters waiting at home. Just a cultural thing though, don't make it weird.

Jokes aside, there's a ton I like about this game. It's a great example of a sandbox done right. Our own little castle acts as the home base from which we see events and can set off from to explore the world. Progression relies solely on a quest system consisting of both main and side quests. Don't worry though, there's no grind here.

The quests are great. They all feel pretty unique from each other, and this is a rare game where the choices you make in these quests can have a lot of impact and variance. I love that you can choose to take a more dominant or submissive route towards the queen as an example. For some of them, there's legitimate hard decisions as well that I had to really think about making.

These quests tie in heavily with another aspect I like: the factions. The overview mentions fallout influence and this is where it really becomes apparent imo. Actually getting involved with these factions and becoming a key member/leader is just fun. It's a bit early still, but you can tell there's a lot of plans for them. Excited to see more out of that.

The animations and renders improve more as the game goes on. I suppose the early game could do with touch ups to match the later stuff, but it's not as if it's horrible. The characters look great and the renders match. Suffice to say, the game looks good.

For me, this is one of those games where the worst thing about it is running out of content to play. I could probably go into a lot more detail with this review, but I truthfully don't have a ton to say. The game is good and speaks for itself. Want to play something a bit different? This is an easy recommend.

Extremely well rendered. The models used are all beautiful. Very good game play. Only downside is the time between updates. But considering my previous statements, it's the price you pay for quality. The Developer maintains regular updates, which is great.

Brilliant game with loads of potential, one of few games here that feels like it's a mainstream indie title.

The visuals are stunning, almost on par with AAA titles at points. They find the right mix of story and sexy content.

Graphic violence isn't typically something I enjoy, and I appreciate that the developer includes the option to turn off excessively gory content, but I don't feel like the game is ever throwing in gore for the sake of gore. It feels appropriate in the flow of the story.

As for the girls, middle eastern/Persian is such a neglected ethnicity in H-games, this is just another plus among many.

Great game. It looks very nice all around, and the sex scenes are great, in more ways than just visuals. Characters and story are pretty interesting. The dialogue feels natural and things actually happen that feel purposeful, not just pointless drama. And there's actually thought put into the world and the story overall.

Surprised.

An interesting story that does not detract from the good sex scenes, with some very attractive girls.

One is left wanting more.

Also thank the translator into Spanish.

(sorry my bad english)

The single best game I had chance of playing... Every single part of it is perfect... Story, renders, characters, locations, etc... 100% original and perfect... Unfortunately, not many games with this level of quality exist...

Story: 10/10
Renders: 9/10
Sound: 8/10
Characters: 8/10
Animations: 9/10

A top-notch game with amazing worldbuilding. I really like the whole post-apocalyptic atmosphere. Everything is perfect: the story, visuals, characters, and animations. Overall, Dev has done an amazing job. This is a must-play game.

Very well thought and designed, this is how a story should be! Excellent story, excellent game play and excellent graphics! Desert Stalker is the game to play! Very well thought and designed, this is how a story should be! Excellent story, excellent game play and excellent graphics! Desert Stalker is the game to play!

I just love the style, the post apocalyptic theme is one that I really enjoy and this hits just the right spot for me, the "good stuff" is nice and the story is a fun ride, totally recommended to give it a go.

Amazing Gaming, infact, this is THE best game on this site hands down. If only there were more updates and much more content.
The characters are well made, plot is decent too and the pace of the game is great too, the only issue I suppose would be that there is lack of fluid animations and motions, only static images. If the scences were dynamic I'm sure the game would be even more better than it already is. Nevertheless it remains true that this is the best game I have played in this catagory.
Good Job, and good luck for future.

The mood of this game is by far its greatest and most redeeming feature. All of the environments are well done. graphics are but outdated and so boring. I couldn't overcome my lack of interest in the story or the setting. Still, technically, this is a very bang average game. I just couldn't get myself into it.

The good :
-The overall universe and design is quite unique
-The game does look very good
-The ladies are quite good looking
-Adult content is a generous amount
-Plot doesn't look too bad so far

The less good :
-Animations are good quality, but very low quantity (the reason why my rating is so severe)
-The ladies somewhat look all the same

I'll might give another shot once it's finished, it was okay, but nothing spectacular imo.

Good luck to the dev tho
