Ren'Py - Hero Party Must Fall [v0.5.3] [Nitrolith]

Dis is some good shit right here, "corruption" and netori done right.

The description/ summary really doesn't do the game justice imo, you are not some sadistic asshole (well yeah, you kinda are) destroying some wholesome 100 party, these characters and the interactions you have with these girls have some depth to them. Don't want to go into exact details here but after finsihing all of the current content I'm getting some "you are the actual good guy" vibes here which I really like

Some people have complained about the art and honestly I'm not seeing it, think it looks grand and the fact that a lot of it is animated is a huge plus.

I don't like all the fetish stuff in here (milking/ cum drinking) but not gonna hold it against the game, some folks are sure to be into that stuff

Looking forward to finally being able to dick down the two party member girls, keep up the good work

Reviewing 0.2.6:

A pretty incredible find. I avoided this game for a while due to the off-putting art, but I was foolish to do so. The game is great, and while the art is hit and miss (I cannot lie, some of it is quite unpolished and bad) generally speaking the quality of the presentation is actually one of the best aspects of this game, with beautiful animations and a very 'soft' and organic way that the artist draws women (in contrast to the immovable bolt-on tits many other h-game artists tend to draw).

Combined with the strong writing, heavy focus on the mentality of the characters, the slow-burn corruption aspect and most important the effort and care that the game creator has given to making the character feel 'alive' - i.e. flawed and warped in their own ways, with very distinct personalities that make them feel so much more developed than the average HRPG fare.

tl;dr this game is great, go and play it if you like corruption/NTR or just beautiful animations in games. I've given it a conditional 4/5 rating, but really this rating only reflects the unpolished and incomplete nature of this game at the time of reviewing it. When this game is done I think it should easily qualify to be a 5/5.

A great game, one of the best I've played.

Positive:
- Plot and script - 9/10. One of the few games that is really fun to play and read dialogues.
- Corruption - 10/10. Seduction is spelled out perfectly, not too fast, but not too slow either.
- Art style - 8/10. The drawing is good, really lewd.
- Sex scenes - 7/10. In general, they are interesting and good, but after a while I get tired of looking at them, I want to skip in order to move the plot further.
- Soundtrack - 8/10. Surprisingly very interesting and pleasant music.

Minuses:
- There are few options for interaction. It is clear that the game is in development, but it would be great to add several different options to spend a game day, it is possible to introduce new characters with whom you can immediately interact.

Overall - 9/10.

(0.2.6)
The writing is really good, corruption is proceeding at a nice pace so far, biggest concern is gonna be choosing a route, but theres so much potential

Lavinia + (Planned Tags: Trap) = Holy Hellel

Most games on this site have acceptable at best writing, but I actually bothered to read the text and even chuckled a bit during character interactions.
My only complaint with the game is the lack of things to do, which will likely be fixed as the game is updated, I don't write reviews for porn games, but the writing has earned it.

I never think I will get netori masterpiece. Good story and gameplay . I really love milking scene lol.
Just be honest I really hope if not make priestess breast too big in the future.
For the future development I advice that the MC get more power to defeat demon king or hero after they fight each other (?) IDK just advice. I really get vibe that MC has mysterious power and will get help for the mother demon

It's honestly too good. A god-tier game with amazing art, a good story, and leaves you wanting more. The characters actually feel like actual people, well, hentai-logic aside. Definitely worth playing.

Honestly an amazing trainer, game the progression of both available characters as of now seems pretty solid, the art style and quality is amazing and the animations are top tier.

Only real criticism as of now is the dungeon, which is seemingly still pretty early in development, even with the planned features it still feels like it'll be pretty unimportant overall which I feel just makes it a bit of a waste.

So basically, if you want to play a game, this game sucks. Its gameplay 'loop' is just repeatedly skipping 2/3 phazes, clicking a girl twice, then going afk until she cums or holding m1 until its faster for a scene. The scene won't be as sexual as what you went afk over, generally. Its incredibly repetitive. You pick a general tab for sex acts, then the actual act under that, then 'q' or 'h'. For 3 animations per position (including not holding m1).
The animations themselves aren't really very hot either. Looping animations that lack like 57 out of 50 frames. They show multiple angles of the girls, which is nice, but just serves to draw attention to how much worse the sprite animation is than the rest of the art.
And speaking of the rest of the art, its inconsistent. In one scene you have a girl lick your foot: your foot is larger than her entire head, about the size of her torso. Did the mc become an ogre in this scene? He's not that big. His dick size and shape also changes completely at random.

So why is it 3 stars?
3 reasons.
1: The gameplay loop, while boring, is completely trivial. You can do it all with just the mouse, its fast, there's little menuing involved, it just takes too long for how much of the content is doing the same shit.
2: The art. Its good. Its lacking in some ways, as noted, but that wouldn't be so noticeable if the game wasn't repeating it so much.
3: Primarily this. The writing.

Its an NTR game, but the cucker really isn't very mean about it. Its just a thing he does. He even feels bad for the hero, questioning what turned him into such a prick.
He's consistently patient with the girls no matter how bitchy.
And they are very bitchy. But justifiably so. One was spoiled and is used to it, the other has issues to work past. You work past them with them. Patiently.

The mc is the main appeal of this game. He's an interesting, extremely likeable, patient guy, who doesn't even seem very happy with his position here, but does it anyways while always still feeling like an actual person, not a fat old man/faceless dude with a 50 foot magical supercum dick.

I will say I found the second chick's story and character much better than the first. A lot more interesting, a lot more justified in her attitude. First girl is just kind of a massive bitch for very little reason beyond being used to getting away with it.

The dungeon gameplay is fucking terrible, but the dev made it skippable. So skip it. Ideally the actual fucking should be skippable, too. Its not varied enough to want to do it so much.

This is an embodiment of netori. The dialogs are so well written, great artwork and pace. 10 out of 5
You can see that the game still in an early stage, but if author keep updating the game, it would be one of the best VN out there.

This is one of the best game I have played. Haven't ever dwell deep into the actual story content this far. The journey by far was fascinating.
Story:
The story I played was not long but very entertaining and interesting. Instead of an average porn game story, this one actually gives out Japanese light novel vibes. More than that, the story actually look into quite controversial topics like putting a deeper thinking of race conflicts, equality and romantic view of people from different traumatize background. In short it was worthwhile.
Gameplay:
The gameplay by far was quite plain, it is like an alpha version of the game NTRLegend, which is a mini game with freedom to choose what position to satisfy the partner. Some new position unlocks alongside the story progress, in which makes logical sense. I would look forward to few more updates down the line that we can get more on the minigames as well as the emotion during the night training can have actual effect(in the stats like extra affection when happy)
Art:
This is the very best i found in this game. This game is in pixel art yet it can bring out the tone of the scene, quite a good use of lighting. Cecile's design is very awesome and hot, can't wait to see more outfits for her. Really want to let the dev know this piece of art is very awesome. As for Sera, she was very hot too (SPOILER ALERT)The way she look submissive and yet holding herself from ecstasy was great, can really feel that. It was very great, hope to see more of these kind of art.
Other:
game size is small and the game runs very smooth. Some suggestion here is to add a gallery for all the hot scenes, or maybe some function to see the stats. Maybe some more interaction with the characters will be awesome.

Overall:
This is an unforgettable experience. This game was totally my type, huge thanks to the devs for making this game. Absolute chad, great artists.
Using numbers to describe:
Story: 5/5
Gameplay: 3-4/5
Art : 5/5

edit 1:
a little extra thing here, this is my first review and Im glad im writing this for this game

A very well done game with it's greatest strength lying in the balance of story and H scenes.

Story is engaging with personable characters and interesting character dynamics.

Visuals consist of very nicely done animated pixel art with plenty of positions/ story H scenes.

This is very very good for an early release. There are many games that focus either too heavily on story/world building or fanservice only. This game delivers a balanced mixture in less than 3 month's time. I'm subbed on patreon for this feat alone.

I'll add this to my list of golden NSFW games.

I appreciate the work put into art, this game has lots of poses to offer.
99% of games in such genre have dull, repetitive poses, as if artists compete with each other in drawing missionary / cowgirl / doggy stuff.

Usually, those games have an outstanding UI, billions of cool features, but the content itself is beyond boring. This title is the same, but in reverse.
UI is questionable, but the content is on god tier level.

Keep it up buys, certainly would check out any upcoming updates.

Really good start, loving the Netori. Keep it up!

The scenes are hot, the slow corruption is great and well made.


It does need fleshing out between scene's, because at the moment you could remove the freeroam element and it wouldn't feel any different. its hard to break any sequence. Although I got access to things in training which hadn't been covered in the story segments so that was a bit jarring.

The above is just a small bit the rest is overall really good!

v0.2.3 Hotfix 1

A game where you play a spy who has been embedded with the prophesied hero in order to disrupt his attempt to save the world. Mainly by banging his broad. The music and pixel art is fantastic. The writing is all right but feels like it spins its wheels retreading the same conversations over and over. The training gameplay feels promising but right now is extremely bare bones. Most of the mechanics are unexplained and a lot of the training actions are missing. I think it's worth keeping an eye on for the music and art, and hopefully the gameplay gets fleshed out over time.

Good plot, good erotic scenes, gameplay isn't quite existent yet, the vn structure is solid.
the pacing of sex minigame, is a lot faster than the pillow talk events, I had 3-5 additional talk scenes after completing the curse minigame. (This isn't a problem but its disruptive to the immersion.)

Love the game even though there is area that are lacking development (which makes sense considering the game is in development).

10/10 hoping for updates

This game is phenominal. I normally thing reviews which are early are really bad ideas. This one merits it. I could be a contrarian and maybe give this 4 stars and talk about some of the issues I do have, but honestly the art is phenominal. It might, no shit, be the best I've seen in any eroge I've played. Somehow blending pixel art and the depraved nature of the acts you commit basically flawlessly. The story just makes it hotter, which is basically the reason we are here and not at any myriad other porn websites on the internet. The only problems I have with the art is that it might be TOO good and later releases might disappoint. If only all of our issues could be so pressing.

As for the game part, it's...weird. It's clearly in development (which is why I hate early reviews but holy shit the art is just that good). But there are a few points of concern:

1) The dungeon sections are too vague, you can't tell what's happening. This normally isn't that big of a deal, it's even skippable. But I think the intent is to drive in just how much you're stealing from the hero (who is perfectly hateable). This won't be possible when you can't tell what's going on at all.

2) Vi. I actually really like her design (THE ART IN THIS GAME IS SO FUCKING GOOD) but she's a huge nothingburger right now. She needs to be an integral part of the plot sooner in the story, rather than later. She's your perky sidekick and it's implied there is some relationship between you two which is fine; but if you're going to try to tell a story where the protagonist might be swayed by Cecille's amazing body into betraying the demons, there should probably be a compelling demon you would be betraying, not just some member of royalty. Vi just doesn't do anything (early build, I know). It was super weird seeing this story being hinted at early on in the game.

3) The sex system just isn't that deep. It doesn't need to be, but there really could be some polish there. If the game is about you stealing, it'll be that much better when the player feels like his actions are skillful and now just "find the position on the right, hold the mouse button". There's some frustration system in place, but it just doesn't seem like it's better than just mindlessly doing the same thing and waiting for the beautiful animations to finish up.

But these are minor complaints. The game is an easy 5 with the art and the plot with the protagonist and the humans. The scary part is that this game is going to get better as it progresses.

The Dev is inspired by two great games (summer memories and NTR densetsu) and it shows in the gameplay, the UI and the rate of game progression.

The art is also great, but the writing is honestly the best part. It's definitely one of the most well written games I've played on here. The characters are all multidimensional and multifaceted, they have reasonably well built backstories. Where it shines the most is in the dialogue between the different characters.

Never expected an H game to be able to evoke emotions in its storytelling, Kudos, developer. The amount of content in the current 0.2.3 build is also very big compared to other games and I look forward to playing the full build.

Game is really really good. Still an early release so it has a lot of features that need to be expanded upon, but the animations in this game are super clean and well done. Definitely going to keep this one on my watchlist.
