Ren'Py - FLX - Downfall of I-Dolls [v0.9] [Studio Dystopia]

Nice game, I really enjoy the trainer genre, but there aren't many of them regularly updated by developers these days. The game isn't grindy and has a nice art style. -1 star for the game being unfinished.

Art grew on me. You'll notice a case of "same face" but not enough to cause much of a fuss.

A definite good thing about this game is the feeling you get, specifically feeling like a pimp, like a manipulator.
I didn't even knew i had this fetish but here we are

Writing wise, it's not a natural progression per say (the corruption) but there are plot devices that move things along enough where i can't complain.
It's not Kafka but the writing is serviceable.

Just like another user pointed out, this is a trainer and these are hard to come by, especially good ones.

I think the dev is working at this game at a reasonable pace, not lighting pace but not like some other devs who milk their fan base.
So far all the gameplay added are either ok or good.

All in all you can tell this isn't some cashgrab but rather a passion project.
If he ever develops another game i'm sure it's gonna be even better but this one is quality for sure.

It's ok. Has strengths, and has weaknesses, none of which are extreme.

Pros:
-It's a trainer, that alone is praiseworthy
-It also has a bit of management mixed in with corruption. So, the corruption has some natural pacing.
-3 girls who all feel distinctive.

Cons:
-You never feel like you're playing correctly. You'll always be behind on energy, material, money, time, mood, etc.
-After a while, the idol shows feel like more of a nuisance than a good way to get money
-The corruption is done with brainwashing instead of the girls having their personality naturally warped. Plus, the girls flat out don't feel...human. "Boob rubs are routine? Annoying but sure" isn't ever a thing that should happen early on into a corruption trainer game.

All in all, an inoffensive game that has annoyances but nothing to really "hate" it. Play a bit, and if you like the first 30 minutes, continue. If not, drop it.

This is a 90% completed game? No it's not, it's more like a 9% completed game, the only thing about this game that might be nearing comlpetion is the UI which isn't exactly advanced, so why the fuck is this game's version 0.9?

Is it some strategy to trick idiots into donating to their patreon for 1 month before realizing they've been duped and abandoning the ship forever or what? Why do bad devs constantly do this?

The art in this game is good, there just isn't very much of it, the UI is decent, the gameplay is so~so, it's kinda poorly planned out, you have all this training shit that progresses outrageously slowly and doesn't really serve any discernable purpose so there's no reason to waste time on it in the first place (I mean you're gonna be swimming in cash without doing any of it anyways so why bother?).

And lastly the story is shit, this game was entirely too much text with too little action.

A disappointment through and through.

Management part un-intuitive, clanky and feels like it was made only to hinder player to bolster playtime(especially stress management). Maybe corruption part better, but i lost all interest after i unlocked some interactions.

Very good game, with good premisse and exemplary art.

Awasome ideia of not obrigating the player to public use to progress with fhe story besides the game being centered on that.

Good corruption game, aplicating what the old games had better and deleting their fails (exessive grinding and stuf)

A shame that is not the principal focus, but is understandable having in mind that Take Over is also a amazing project. Hope that this is not forget tho

Srry for the bad englis btw (not my principal language)

Straightforward trainer game. Some of the included music really fits the setting well and gives it the cyberpunk vibe, other times not so much. The best part is the figures of the three women. One "full figured" another is a still very feminine and attractive powerful and muscular woman and there is a athletic and bosomy in between.

All in all I enjoyed playing it, the focus right now is a bit centered on the breasts but in the future might expand outwards to more vulva and butt handling and use One of the most QOL parts is there really isn't much 'grinding' to do. You just work through the training sessions for the most part (linear scenes) and move them between assignments.

Pretty good. The story follows a well trodden formula, perhaps, but it does it well, and that makes all the difference. The girls are sympathetic enough that you like them, but not so much so that you start feeling sorry for them; the grind-to-perv ratio is about right and if we never see more than a few boobies, it somehow never felt like I was being blue-balled the I do with some games.

The one thing that keeps it from being 5/5 is the art. It's good, but the girls are just a shade curvier than I like 'em. I also can't quite decide if the protagonist is a guy, or a girl, in drag, which actually stopped bothering me pretty quickly, but it was a definite distraction at the start.

Anyway: decent game and any flaws are firmly matters of taste rather problems with the game. But the best recommendation I can give this one is that I was disappointed when I got to the end of the content. Which is always a good sign.

Looking forward to further updates.

Pretty good start, good lookings girls (speacially Leona, my fav girl), had good laughs at certain times. All the three girls have their own story, their own personality.
The gameplay; I liked, its what you would expect of a trainer game, raise mood with gifts, or just let them rest. Overall I loved the game, have great hopes for its development
