VN - Ren'Py - Completed - Fetish Locator [Week 3 v3.6.9] [ViNovella]

This is such a thoughtful game. Some of the other games I've played from this forum feel a tad gross, like they were made by someone who's never spoken to women before. In Fetish Locator, the characters, story, interactions, and every other aspect are so well fleshed-out. It feels like women have had a lot of input regarding the development and writing, or perhaps some queer folks even. It's a very refreshing vibe!

Fetish Locator serves almost all imaginable kinks: Harem, Feet, NTR, Golden Shower, Ass to Mouth, Enema, and more!

Aside from serving those kinks, the story quality starts out great.
Of course, you are the ordinary Nobody, fantasizing about your crush. Sadly, your experience sums up to Zero because the MC doesn't get any girls in the past.

But this changes (of course), a mysterious App on your Smartphone forces you into lewd adventures, where you experience quality time depending on the fetish/kink you agree on.

Week1/Part1 of the game starts out great with it's story. It introduces you to major and minor characters you encounter through your game. Yet, during Week2/Part2 the story falls flat.
While at the beginning, you are the Nobody who tag along with his friends and experiencing new stuff, during Week2/Part2 you manage to become the Alpha who is the centre of any group. Lastly it drops off by only offering service for the player (Want some fuck? Yes/No).

In some way the developer is right, all the fetishes are "optional" but something that the dev never said is that the girls are "optional" too, because if some girl is into watersports or some fetish that you don't like, you lose your chances with that girl because looks like this girls are only interested in one fetish and all of them are only interested in one at the time, so you lose the chance to see all the content that those girls have, still, don't worry because they don't have much or interesting content, all the content those girls will give you is only related with the fetish they like, so most likely you will end fucking just with 3 girls of the 20, and avoid all the others because the game force you to choose those fetishes just to fuck that girl.
Later in the game the dev doesn't even care if you like something or not, if I'm not mistaken there is one scenes with Lysa where she gives you a footjob, I don't like footjobs and I'm pretty sure I never said that I was okay with that, but the game still make it happen, if you see the script there are options that give you better outcomes with some girls, but those options are fetishes, like a rimjob, so to get a better relationship with that girl the game wants to force you to choose the rimjob.
I was kind of okay with the game at the start, even when was pretty clear that the dev lock you out of some girls paths on purpuse when he made them fetish exclusive, but later in the game that is more noticeable and worst.
Im okay with optional fetishes but not with "optional" girls, that is stupid.

I Don't Normally Bother Leaving Reviews, But ..........

Pros

• Excellent Renders , Excellent Character Models, Excellent Animations .
• " Fetishes Part " And i Can Write A Novel About that , The Variety Of Fetishes is Very Impressive, Def Hits a lot of ppl Hidden Kinks , A lot Of Games Doesn't Have That On Here Which Make This Game Very Special , That's Why its called " fetish Locator " After All , Certainly What Makes This Game On My Top List And i Hope You Add More And More in Future .
• The Overall Story is Really Well Written and Very engaging , All Plots And Choices Are very Well done , dialogues are good too. Pretty much everything is on point .
• Music Really Good " What's This " Song Really Killed Me from Laughter And The Mute Part and The Dialogue between mc and amrose and lyssa , About Copyrights Really Was Hilarious .
• There's Fair Amount Of Comedy Sprinkled Here And There I love That .

Cons

• Animations Are Really Good But In Some scenes , They can be Very Stiff " Rare Cases " .
• You Can Miss A lot Of Content , But That wasn't An Issue For Me With " Multi Mod " Highly Recommended , Its All Depends On Players Preference And Choices , And What Path They Follow So Its not Really An Issue .
• More Futa characters Should Be Add To The Game Tbh It Doesn't Make Sense To Me that there's only One Futa Character in The Entire Game .
• I Really Loved Lysaa But i Don't Think She Really Got A Fair Amount Of Content Because Some PPl Don't Wanna See " futa " Content And get Uncomfortable , But I don't Think That's fair to The Character After All The Game Got Extreme Fetishes So What's the Issue here If You Don't Like Them Skip to The Next Game Agree Or Disagree " Just Personal Opinion .

CONCLUSION:
Overall Fetish Locator is One Of The Best Games, very enjoyable with surprisingly unique characters , so I am really excited to see future updates , if Continued Being Crafted With Care And Patience it can Become an All-Time Classic, Just like Dreams Of Desire, Being A DIK, Treasure of Nadia, and so many others .

It Definitely Deserve a 5⭐ Rating And you Should 100% Check This Game Out And Even Support it .

What More Can I Say ? Good job And Good Luck Developing This Wonderful Game, all The Best To You .

The level of the writer is very high, both in the picture and the story .
Each girl is very attractive and highly recognizable
All animations are processed instead of using images alone .
The story has suspense and twists and turns, and in the late stage has a different ending direction .
But there is a very big problem , SM's taste is too heavy , there is a scene throughout the three works that I can't forget , a girl named May was drinking pee as if she were drinking water all story .

Overall a good VN. Some of the fetishes were not my taste but skipping them didn't block out too much enjoyment from the story. The main LI choice was unfortunately tied to a subject hotly debated so I leave it to others. Willing to up the rating depending upon how the next update pans out. A threesome between the MC, the lawyer and the MC's friend (sister if patched I guess) could surely cinch an upvote.

Nice candy, in an expensive wrapper: graphics - check! Good animations - check! Lots of fetishes - check! Unpretentious background to everything that's going on - check! Except this candy turned out to be completely tasteless. On paper everything is gorgeous and a potential contender for top 1, but the game has no spark, no chemistry between the characters, the situations are sometimes absurd and drawn-out. The game doesn't set a sexual mood, everything looks like a set of porn scenes according to your stated fetishes. Subjective - nothing to lose by passing this game.

I had fun with this!

Image quality is good, there is a lot of content. I liked the storyline. I would love to have some more choices earlier in the game with some of the characters, but understand that takes workload doubles with each storyline so for simplicity sake this is not added. I had my doubts of some of the characters early on and in the end some of my doubts were confirmed.

Overall fun game to play with a nice story and a lot of choices.

Pros

• Mod options are neat, though I prefer not having to use it to see all the options for a more immersive experience.
• The fetish variety is impressive, not all that out there, but certainly covers all the more standardized weirdness.
• Character visuals are decently varied.
• The logic behind the plot is there, though there is the occasional convoluted point.
• The overall story is quite well-done.
• There's music. Pretty decent mood choices.

Cons

• The dialogue drones a bit, it becomes hard to find distinguishing features between the characters in text, they all follow a similar speech pattern with the main variety being aggression/mood. Subsequently, characters can lose their distinction and it may prove harder to feel any sort of attachment to some/most.
• It's not very clear if certain fetishes are locked behind taking certain routes, even with the mod.
• The conflicts in the game feel rather easily solved at all the wrong times and way too heavy-handed when the solution is already presented... and easy.
• [major personal gripe] The main character is a moron. More than I'm willing to tolerate at times. Taking the Lydia romance seriously, he brings up that he should be upfront and honest about as much as he can with her, plans for some of it, fails to carry through by virtue of no reason other than he didn't make time to deal with this and then proceeds to have trouble stir up from it. This is enough of an issue that I've had to take at least one break from the idiocy that is this character. Quite literally all of his existence feels like its main mistake is failure to be open, IRONICALLY, while sleeping around openly. The blackmail feels hilariously weak as a result, because the only weight it carries stems from his weird random-insecurity moments that get immediately overlooked when he has to fuck shit. He's Kirito, but instead of just being hyper-cringe, there is also little consistency to his mental processing. I would've preferred a one-dimensional nice-guy cringelord to whatever this is. He's written as though he's supposed to be socially balanced but has no sense of responsibility unless it randomly needs to happen for the plot, despite the writing trying to convey otherwise.
  TLDR: MC is a dipshit. One of the lamer variants of the harem master trope, even by porn game standards.

Summary
An enjoyable game, I've only one notable issue with it, being the somewhat random nature of the MC. -1* for personal taste, if I didn't mind the idiocy, this would be a 4.5*. ish.

I played v 1.0.40

Writing and art are quite good. From what I saw, enthusiastic consent was a viable option, which is nice. However, it isn't tame. It really highlights how kinkily erotic stuff can be without relying on tired, coercive tropes. Also, as a queer person, it was nice to see a game primarily directed at cishet men treat trans folk with a modicum of respect.

The tags for the game are a lie,

If you are not into all the fetishes marked as "optional" this game is not for you, as the game is geared around pushing you towards the extreme fetish content, not just finding you content you'd enjoy and having a good experienece.

It has multiple game ends, and bad events for passing on the extreme tags in the "optional" section.

As the fans of the game have pointed out multiple times:

"this game isn't for people like you", even though the tags and description say otherwise as "optional" tags should be that -- optional. But you must do a significant amount of the optional content to progress or cheat. Unfortunately the game is also moving into cheat detection by modifying values with the console so eventually I expect that to also not work.

TL;DR: avoid if you're not into any of the 'optional' tags, as the game will force you to play that content and punish/end the game for not doing so. Really shitty experience for what could be a beautiful game

Without a doubt one of the best games

And look, I've played many more I never get to comment anything here.


The game trys to please all public from those who want sex scenes** and those who looking for an intriguing and fun story to read, and otherwise inside the game, it presents as it says in the name several fetishes that please the taste of every player and historian , because it is so complete in these matters, the game is not too much more about the physics in sir but it is interesting the game is the scenes, and to improve more and more the jorador's experience has several way to follow and you can refuse to girl you want (~less the main game aff) lol


And the coolest about it all eq you find all this only in the first part. Great game hope to see more of these types

Everything related to this story should have ended a long time ago, MC is another one of the bunch, without personality, the women in this VN are the least attractive thing I've seen in a project with this level of popularity, the script is boring, uninteresting, wall of text and sex, etc.

Technically it is not the best you will see on this website, I just lost interest from the end of "week one", I don't have anything that catches my attention in this VN anymore, it's time to just let it go, cya!

FUTA/TRANS tag review: 2.5/5:

Game is not futa/trans dominated which is good to some, disappointing to others. If you like futa/trans alongside your standard content, this game has a decent-ish mix. If you don't like futa/trans alongside your standard content, you might be disappointed. Similarly if you want futa/trans to be the main content, you will also be disappointed.

General game review: 3.5/5:


+ Solid and interesting enough story
+ Decent and a good amount of renders
+ Sex scenes happen frequently enough
+ Despite it being a VN it felt like the game was dynamic enough with an OK amount of player agency to choose their own path

- The animated scenes are OK but they can be a bit stiff
- Why is each week its own game download?
- Each week seems to regress in terms of features (edit: as of now at least, supposedly the dev adds the QoL features after finishing a week)

[W3 v2.4.6]

TLDR: great game, great characters, nice sex scenes, takes fetishes and consent seriously, has a nice variety of fetishes to choose from.

This is, without the shadow of a doubt, the very best game I've downloaded on this website.

If you don't have a lot of fetishes, this game ain't for you. It reminds me of the phrase I've read on a "fetish consent file": "You can choose to say no or yes to any of those, but if you see yourself saying no to almost all of them, maybe find another hobby". That being said, it's also a great opportunity for discovery and experimentation.

Girls are hot and have a LOT of character. They are all very clearly different from each other. There are some very cool subplots too. Sex scenes are hot, but can feel kinda "sammy" as time goes on, mostly because of the sound effects repeating.

A lot of games on this site are about dominating a harem of girls, but this is the only game I've played that takes domination seriously as a fetish. Consent is a big deal on this one, even being the whole point of the main plot and "villain".

MC is a great dude unless you REALLY don't want him to be. While rushed for the sake of pacing and fun, his relationships feel real and earned, as long as you accept that he and people around him are just super horny.

I really did not think I would like the main romance of the game, and I was wrong. The whole sincerity between them is cute AF, and I'm longing for a happy ending. It's just kinda frustrating that he still hasn't told her about the game and the blackmail. I don't think it still makes sense after all they went through, so I think I'll be super frustrated when she finds out for the sake of drama.

And deleted, first two weeks were good with every other fetish as optional until the forced chastity cage. Surprise surprise, but people do not like forced niche fetishes if the game isn't revolving around them.

Very well done from all angles, having played most of the first week.

The characters are distinctive, the models are pretty good, and the story is unbelievable but great for what the game is trying to do. The writing and dialogue are good as well.

The audio is great in comparison to other games. Fetishes are treated non-judgementally and there are plenty of opportunities to opt out of things you're not interested in. A good deal of consent for things.

Version: Week 3 v2.4.6

Had a good start, but personally it fell off for me. The story just kept being dragged on by filler content that didnt add that much to the main story itself.

The art is great
The characters are a bit flat, but still enjoyable
Sounds effect are meh
The story lost steam and now continues on with only inertia to propel it
Gameplay? in an VN game?

I had fun playing this game, even if i did lose my appetite for it later down the line. Good game.

Awesome.
Some of the rare and uniq games out there.
Sex scenes can be improved a lot. Make it more fun.
The problem is the contrast between an awesome story , uniq characters, awesome graphics but poor sex scene animations.

The animations should be improved and sex scenes should be a bit more extreme. It's the story makes it like an uniq extreme fetish game but it's more or less vanilla fetish.

There are a lot of scenes that can me improvised. There are tons of golden opportunity that can be turned from gold to diamonds .

This game was good at the start but unfortunately has fallen since then

Pros
Good Renders
Average Story

Cons
Most girls are ugly with few exceptions
We have reached at the end and the developers decided to make small updates to drag this as much as they can
We have reached at the end and one of the main characters remain untouchable L...a
Boring sex scenes
