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

One of the best h-game i ever played.
Everything here is good. The characters, the story, (((especially))) the scenes. It has many side characters and many of them have nice lore that unlock even more characters, gameplay is a bonus (one of the only sandbox that i liked)
If you're reading this and didn't play: congrats, you're about to play one of the best games on this forum.
Recommend even if you don't like NTR/Netori.

It is a bit strange to me that I'm so attracted to this game. I guess it must be the story and writing. Because the graphics are quite low-poly and the "training" element is rather tedious. There is quite a lot of content here and the pacing in terms of corruption is good. The characters are well written.

For anyone considering this game, I don't think you need to put in more than five minutes to know whether it is for you. After seeing the first Sera scene I knew I was going to complete it .

Hello peak department? Yeah I would like to file a claim.

Delightfully fucked up game with great character writing. Love how every character is miserable/broken in their own ways. The art starts kinda rough but quickly grows on you.

Hope the author keeps cooking, cause I'm hungry for more.

Elena gave me a fetish for retards.

Writing is surprisingly top tier in the aspect of character design, this game isn't like your standard corruption game where the girls just simply get sluttier and sluttier, instead it takes the character's unique motivations and weaknesses and makes a corruption story in which they are leveraged.

Cecilia is a character with fantastic flaws, she is the pinnacle of narcissism due to trauma and a tragic upbringing. Many aspects of her selfishness are relatable and the story paints a fantastic picture of hubris.

Must play. Elena deserves all the bullying and all the love. Cecilia's arc is a masterpiece.

One of my favorite games in this site. Corruption is done so well and the characters are really unique and interesting. I genuinely don't know what's up with the bad reviews saying it has too much dialogues because this is a corruption game and it takes time for corruption to build. If you just want to skip to sex, what you are looking for is porn videos.

Pros:

+ Heroines are very attractive
+ Perfect corruption pace
+ Really unique art and gameplay
+ Great amount of content
+ H Scenes are lewd and hot, has much more to offer than mere missionary and doggy
+ Sera (honestly, nuff said)

Cons:

- Sandbox (sike, the sandbox is fine and NOT grindy, if you complain about this, I again recommend you just watch porn videos or porn comics)

Hero Party Must Fall will go down as the pinnacle of the corruption genre. It's truly a masterpiece in so many ways.

The story is not very original but it masterfully pulls on so many established tropes and sculpts them into something fresh.

The dialogue is amazing in regular and lewd scenes. the characters feel so familiar yet unique.

The art has that style where it can look quite rough. At first I wasn't a fan but it grew on me and it just feels so appropriate for the game. The one thing that I'm still not the biggest fan of is characters looking quite different across scenes and poses. It's like the proportions and dimensions of their bodies are changing.

For anyone wondering if you should play this game the answer is most certainly yes. However, I've docked a star in the review because of the frustrating gameplay.

It's designed as a sandbox game that let's you choose the events you want to pursue. The reality is that there are many bugs, no clear idea on how to advance quests, lot's of clicking around, no way to tell your progress in the different quests, no idea on if you've completed the content for this update, horrible mini games that show fake numbers that don't mean anything, boring mini games that don't bring anything positive.

Honestly, this would play much better as more of a pure VN experience without all the sandbox elements.

One of the best h-games there is. Over 20h of content already. Writing and characters are top tier. Updates are somewhat frequent but provide a lot of content per patch. Art style is great and only improves overtime.

This game has something, I could not specify exactly what it is, but the conversations with all the secondary characters, are absurd, I get tired, they are far-fetched, I would not know how to explain it, but I have tried to play it 3 times, and I always end up skipping the texts and getting bored after a few hours as a person who thinks that doing this is sacrilege, if I do it in a game it is worrying.

I wouldn't recommend it

game really likes to hear itself talk. read dialog, read character's thoughts on dialog, read response to dialog, read character's thoughts on response, read narrator's commentary on dialog. repeat 50 times. that is one interaction.

ntr dude tries to be like ntr legend but is cringe takes himself too seriously. the ntr premise is literally a macguffin. i like it when stories are straight to the point but come on. it's not even real ntr just a cockblock.

gameplay is point and click interactions with bad art. i hope the dev doesn't get discouraged by any bad reviews i think they have good ideas but poor structure.

I don't know how to describe this game. It's beautiful in all aspects. The art is amazing, and I'm really impressed by the story and how Irene's cuckold is twisted. I praise the developer for his work, and I hope this game never ends due to its beauty.

just the right amount of freaky
unique arstyle and interesting characters with constant sex
stands out from other semi-sandbox VNs due to its writing and artstyle which both carry an aura of darkness but its sexy darkness

Hero Party Must Fall isn't just a game; it's an immersive journey into the heart of strategic gameplay and moral complexity., if by moral complexity you think about fucking all the girls and cucking the hero.I love this game lol

For all of the corruption and netori fans out there this might be the game to top them all. Cool concept, an attractive art style that stands out and the character arcs currently in the game are some of the best I've seen in an AVN. This developer really understands writing within their chosen genres and it pays off.

It isn't without it's flaws of course. It's a somewhat buggy game, I was fortunate enough to avoid these but it should be kept in mind. It also has a pretty poor sandbox implementation where you're running around looking for stuff to do but it is very small scale so not bad. The final issue is that it obviously is not finished and isn't fast to update. The content in the game right now is plentiful and well worth it however with a full corruption arc and netori content aplenty.

Must try for fans of the genres and a 5/5 for me.

Gave it a 3/5 because I think it is still worth the time to unlock the gallery and view the scenes. However, the ability to brick saves (whether through bugs or choices) will always be something that kills games. I will keep checking this game out as updates arrive, but if my save gets bricked again, 3/5 will remain.

If you like NTR check it out for sure, it's up there for being top tier for the fetish. If you do not, I would recommend not spending time on the game.

I got around to playing this after seeing it on the top list for a while. After playing it, I have no idea why it is ranked the way it is. It is a ok game, but is not close to the company it keeps (its currently a top 15 weighted rating). The writing is pretty good, there is a lot of grind unfortunately.

What takes this game from a 3.5 or so to a 2 for me is that it is a pretty broken game that has a tendency to destroy saves. I encountered a bug that was apparently brought to the developer's attention in 2022 on this site. Instead of fixing the bugs players are encouraged to use the "paths" system which would mean re-doing all of the grind for whatever version you are on. Each update has quite a bit of content, so I opted to delete the game when my save broke instead of redoing scenes.

A really nice NTR game, the main character (who do the NTR) is very likeable (to me), the art is.... very well made, the female character is very... unique. I like all of them execpt Cecille, the story is pretty dark so make sure you are fine with decapitation.

If you like any form of NTR this game is a masterpiece! If you don't like NTR this game is probably not for you, but you can still probably enjoy it if you're not a triggered baby like the boy hero is. Thank you so much dev for making this incredible game , it will stuck with me for a while i'm sure of it. Looking foward to see you developing more gems like this!

I was disappointed with this adventure.. I can appreciate a story and maybe it gets better but so much of this game is just endless yammering on. I get it, you're slowly falling for Mr. NTRman. Do we need to reiterate it 15 times before I can progress to the next lewd animation. I managed to get the first girl's progress bar maxed out and the game warned me not to go ahead without viewing the remaining pillow talk segments. It just kept going for like a half hour or more of them lying in bed and talking.

I really don't mind a game focusing more on a story. That's great, but nothing here so far has been original at all. The girl is slowly realizing that the evil NTRman is actually quite sweet and nicer than her boyfriend. All while you're constantly reminded through Mr. NTRman's inner thoughts that he is in fact evil and may have regrets about being evil or may not. I just ended up fast forwarding through the dialogue towards the end. Then when I am finally done with all the pillow talk and ready to move onto actual sex, another girl shows up and I have to work on her first. Now I am back to square one of endless pillow talk segments while these two characters pretend not to like each other. I think I played for around an hour and a half and still no penetration or sex yet. I did not enjoy this game at all the more I think about it.

Unbelievable. This is someone that understands relationships, sex and its relation to power and how it all comes together.

This may as well be text based, it is THAT good. The Dev is a writer first. The characters are alive and unique, not just a vessel for porn scenes. They feel real and unique and the writing leads them into places that challenges their morality in a way few games or books do.

This is exactly what I have been looking for when I came here... before I became numbed by the million of crappy college harem games.

If you want a story about real people and sex scenes that have meaning in the context of the story, you can't miss this.

It's stellar.

This game is strange, very strange. I tend to stay away from games where you play as a villain, or you're a bad guy, and I tend to favor romance and love stories, but this is a game where you play as a villain and with a heavy focus on cheating.

However the plot really hooks you in, and draws you forward. The main character is a villain because of circumstances, and he doesn't really enjoy it, he even laments that in another life he'd be a mentor to the hero and enjoy helping him become a great man. Similarly the hero is an insufferable twat, but that's a matter of circumstances, and in another game you could absolutely see him blossoming into a good person.

What ends up happening is this game makes you feel like an utter bastard, but it directs your anger towards the people forcing you into this situation, which, I'm hoping will have a satisfying ending where you get revenge and make the end justify the means.

As for the sex, well, it's very good, there's a lot of it, and it varies considerably in tone and kinks, but the through line is good art, and good writing, I'm not a huge fan of the whole trainer thing in general, but it makes sense thematically, so, what can you do.

All in all, I can't say I enjoyed this game, because it makes me feel like scum, but the story was enthralling, the sex was hot, and the characters well written, and that's worth five stars.
