VN - Ren'Py - Game of Hearts [Ch.5 R1] [SparkHG]

If Corruption AVNs had a perfection category, Game of HEarts would be at the the top of this game, It is a game that not only does perfection right, but makes you discover feelings that are generally not found in this genre i.e, both deep regret and arousal , amixture I never thought possible in this corrupt genre and that too with plain s*x . I mean everything here is near perfection till now, I just pray it doesn't fumble , because as of now I feel this game doesn't have any clear long term direction just immediate goals.

I don't want this game to loose its overarching development i.e, gradual control through influence and magic. The biggest challenge for developer would be to expand cast beyond girls and gradually developing these relation, so that they all feel natural corruption

This is the kind of game I’d call “absolute cinema.” The dialogues are deep, intimate, sweet, and so smooth that I can almost feel Meredith’s presence. Her facial expressions are incredibly lifelike, and the lighting and colors in the renders are perfect. Sincere congratulations to the developer or developers behind this masterpiece.

As a player who isn’t a sponsor and whose only contribution is this review, here’s my humble request: I love the focus on Meredith. While I’ve seen others ask for more female characters in the game, I personally believe that keeping the spotlight on Meredith is ideal (just my opinion). I understand it takes significant effort, but I’d love to see the game explore themes like pregnancy and related elements—things like adult breastfeeding, intimacy during pregnancy, and other aspects tied to this theme would be a welcome addition.

These are my two cents. The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is that it’s still a game in development, and I’ve seen some promising games on f95 end abruptly or with poorly developed conclusions.

First thing that drew me in was Merideth's body. She is perfectly curvy with a cute face! Not many games have realistic thicc girls so it was nice to see. The story is a little slow at first, but it only adds to the anticipation and ultimately makes the payoff so good! If you want something fast and easy, this isn't for you. If you want to earn your scenes with a gorgeous girl, download this beauty.

The best CG renders and animations (which non 2 sec loops). Also, interesting story and gameplay mechanic with choices during scenes.

Scenes are long and beautiful. This is truly 3D art. I never seen such a good work with light and especially face emotions.

There is lack of SFX, but that's not big deal because music is setting all the mood.

This game is suitable for those of you who are looking for a natural romance story. I really like how this story builds romantic relationships between each character (love route). In my view, this game teaches how to treat women with respect even though there are some things that I think are excessive and impossible to happen in real life (love route). However, I enjoyed the story this game offered and i hope the developer can complete this game project to completion.

[Ch.5 R1]

Decent game but suffers from a couple major flaws that prevents it from being good. Meredith and Maxime are neither attractive or interesting to me. The rest of the LI's are though. Normally I wouldn't have an issue with this but the plot is centered around the former (for now). The writing suffers from bad translation and grammar, which ruin the immersion for me. I don't have any other gripes about the game.

Hell yeah, this shit is what I'm looking for in this site. This have everything I like, decent plot, REALLY hot lewd scenes, gorgeous LI, some netori, and a lot of choices. I hope the updates are faster because this one is fire.
If you wonder if this is worth playing, then I will tell you yes, IT IS.

Prompted by the negative comments I received, I thought I might have been mistaken and misunderstood something. So I tried again. And I must say that I was in fact completely wrong. I still don't like the author's writing style but it's not as bad as it first seemed to me. Otherwise the story is good and the characters aren't bad either.

I rarely write reviews because most of the time i don't care enough,but i must give credits when it's due. This game reminded me of a game which was abruptly abandoned, Chains of Pleasure. It had such a cool story and characters/interactions.

This game gave me similiar feels,in a good way. The scenes are awesomely written,i wouldn't mind if there wasn't any animations (but there is, nonetheless) because the writing of each scene feels realistic, erotic and sensual at the same time. What i mean is,it's not just some general lines and moaning,but completely describes how the included characters feel,and explain why they are doing what they are doing. (Thats a weird sentence,heh) I really like the corruption of game,not the usual turboslut route,where you get between their legs under 10 minutes and they are forever in love with you.

You have to work for their acceptance,affection and corruption - like a mini game,but it's tied to the scenes,not put in a different screen to ruin the experience. You get to "power up" your character,the more you make the girls cum,the more power you get at the end of the day. It's really a good system,because it enhance the gameplay part as well. I hope to see the game finished one day, it got me entertained from start to the end. (of it's current version. CH5.R1)

A true masterpiece. The best game on the platform. No other game made me feel so much while playing it! The whole environment, the tension, the good old human nature...I have no words! This developer is an artist! Keep up the good work! Thank you for your game!

Most, if not all, of what I have to say has been said in other reviews. But, despite the fact that half of the LIs are completely meh to me personally, I played through this game (Ch.5) in one sitting.

This game has, far and away, the best looking models/renders (?) I've ever seen.

Thanks for the game, I hope to see more of it.
4 Stars not 5 ONLY because I didn't care for a couple of LI characters.
5/5 If I go simply by your achievement.

1st playthrough and I can say that this is officially in my top 5. Wonderful game. Biggest issue for me (and honestly it's not that big of an issue) would have to be grammar.

Overall wonderful AVN!!

One of the best vn I ever played so far.
Interesting story and setting, very erotic dialogue and scenes.
Please continue with the story, i'm eager to see how it unfolds over the ne t chapters.
Thanks!

I've played a ton of games posted here (around like 50-60) and this is top 5 for me for sure. There aren't a lot of characters yet, but the scenes/renders are top tier and they are all really hot. The story and the concept is not anything new, but it's engaging and exciting. The choice-system for the scenes are also a really good addition, you can replay every scene in 2-3 different ways and you can upgrade your skills/abilities as you go along the way. There are already a lot of content so you can play this for many hours and not get bored. If you like high quality games with a good story with a good pacing and scenes, this is a must play.

Interesting game, with corruption aspect done right. Story is good - nothing special or unique - but good.

Dialogue is well written, but I caught many grammar mistakes, especially in second half of the game.

Lewd scenes are different than what you usually see on other AVNs - slow and sensual. I mostly like them, but I would still like to see more proper action and some animation improvement.

I like the MC - he is cool, looks and personality wise.

Lastly, the girls:
Starting with Maxime. I have 0 attraction to her. I don't dislike her, but I don't find her interesting or attractive and ffs, she has to stop talking about her stinky cooch. I have to say, I skipped quite a bit of her scenes, especially later ones.

Meredith: Would probably be in the same place as Maxime, but she gets the benefit of having more content with a lot of intimate moments, where MC slowly breaks her will, so just by that, you kinda get more acceptive to her. I still don't find her attractive, but I did start to enjoy her scenes.

Julia: I like her. Didn't at first, but now, I wish she could just be my main LI.

The short hair girl: forgot her name - looks-wise not my type, but still cute. Too early to tell if she is interesting, but has potential.

Brie: hot, can't wait to see more of her.

Anyway, I guess the biggest "issue" with the game is that two main girls who have the most content are not attractive and you are basically forced to have relationship with them. I don't have a problem with them being forced on you, I understand why it is so, the way story develops, but it's just unfortunate that dev picked two women with average looks and stinky pussies.

Anyway, overall I really enjoyed the game.

Loving the game so far the story is really interesting and the scene and level of detail is amazing. My only issue is I don't know if the dev is holding out till the relationships get deeper but there isn't anything in the way S scene other than the tradition stuff one scene with Anal no boob play of any kind most of the time they keep them covered. Which for me is big thing I like that kind of stuff. Other than that fantastic game so far just want to see the Dev push further in future updates.

dev cooked worth checking out and supporting the Dev story is very Good (in these type of game Great) , its very well done never gave it a chance till recently and i feel dumb for not doing so and thats it

Just played through to the end of Ch. 5, mainly on the strength of the reviews here.

It's not a 5-star game for me, although there is much to praise. I will say that I will be looking out for updates and will continue to play it.

Pros:
- Good models, with physical characteristics that fit their personalities, and expressions that are good at conveying internal emotional states. So technically 5/5.
- While the "young man finds he has magical powers then has lots of sex" theme is not entirely new around here the basic plot does seem to have been thought out in advance and is reasonably coherent in execution. I can't emphasise enough that the key to a good VN is the story. You have to retain the player's interest and make them want to find out what happens next. If it were just about the sex scenes, everyone would just watch porn.

cons:

- Only a 3/5 for English expression, unfortunately. Not just spelling errors but words and phrases used wrongly. Nothing destroys immersion like those sorts of mistakes. It is sad to see so much hard work undermined by this sort of failure in execution and I strongly recommend that the writer seeks the assistance of a literate native speaker of English to edit the text.

- The narrative is a bit slow to develop. Pacing is obviously a hard thing to get right, but when the player finds themselves just clicking quickly through yet another sex scene that adds nothing to the plot, then it is going too slowly. Particularly when the "porn shoot" premise is inherently implausible; it would matter less if it did not take up so much time.

But congratulations on the technical accomplishment and I hope the writer finds these comments helpful.

This has easily gone to my top AVN despite having played hundreds of others over the years on here. The story really is intriguing and also the characters.
Renders are gorgeous and make great use of colours in them.

Love interests are varied in body types and personalities which is good for a wide range of tastes I guess. the demon girls are my absolute favourites without doubt. It's hard to choose between Julia and Ruby as both are gorgeous girls...Brie is damn hot too!

As for the milfs, Maxime and Meredith? not a fan of these old wrinkly women when you have the super hot demon girls. The seduction stuff is awesome where you try to get max points to level up powers. It just felt quite long with the Meredith corruption and her body is pretty saggy, so nah, pass on her.

The story is slow moving with the hidden past stuff but really got me engrossed in it, so much so that I can't wait for more and of course, my hot demon babes.

One thing I love is the attention to facial expressions to show their emotions...very well done. Julia is a prime example when she tries to hide her hurt and jealousy.

Awesome game that just grabbed me and now Julia has become my top babe.

My only complaint? why did the dev have to make the human followers old and ugly? Maxime is like Olga the Shot Putter and Meredith from a trailer park with bags, sags and a pot belly....considering how much screen time they get, all I could think was I want more Julia, not these wrinklies!

Other than that, great job by the dev, this one is a winner.

I am pleasantly surprised with this game. A magnificent game focused on seduction with good dialogues, character building with their contradictions, doubts and weaknesses.
In addition, the seduction system is quite understandable and entertaining.
Very Good 5/5
