Ren'Py - Innocence or Money [S2 E3] [MarcialART]

It’s a really good NTR game… I enjoyed it a lot.
A pure girl with a boyfriend comes to the city and faces the danger of corruption.
Her boyfriend insists on keeping a chaste relationship for religious reasons.
Men and women alike begin to target this girl…

A really great game that even thought have no great plot sophistication it is well designed and delivered.

The plot is very simple and evergreen but it is implemented correctly without any pretentious ambition to be a masterpiece.

Sex scenes are very well represented, long and offer the full sex interaction experience, not the classic checkbox everybody with few scruffy images that seem to be now the standards in the other games.

Delivery pace is very slow.

But overall it is a good game to play and to wank on.

If I were the dev I would push for more hardcore content and stronger blackmails

THIS IS A REALLY OUTSTANDING TITLE...

I will watch it and if updates are relatively frequent I will sponsor.

I loved the corruption narrative with Female POV. I do not count this as NTR because the BF is not a POV character. and I really hope we get to see BF's dad black mail Jenifer into sex with him at some point

Constructive Criticism.
#1... so far anyway.. there is absolutely no reason this should be a sandbox game. the story is VERY linear. The sandbox element is pointless and grindy especially int he beginning of the game. Maybe that will change in future releases. At the very least it needs some random events at each location to make it even interesting.

#2 Landlord's wife shows up at the beginning and we never see her again. She should show up from time to time.. maybe J catchs them fucking on the couch or in the kitchn from tiem to time. maybe Mrs. Landlord is harsh or critical or even friendly to J ( making her feel back about messing around with Mr L )

#3 Scratch number 3... The sceen selection mechanic during sex originaly bothered me.. but I kind of like it now.

ALL IN ALL this is a great title.

If someone asked me if the game is worth playing now, I would answer no. I played for 10 hours using step by step walkthrough and I am left dissatisfied with amount of content I got However, there is no doubt that this game will be a masterpiece in a few years. The story, dialogues, graphics are fantastic. The sandbox is easy to navigate and it isnt as overwhelming as big chunk of other sandbox games.

i really cant put above 3stars, FMC is gorgeous, nothing to say, just the sandbox aspect is really tiresome. Just pure blind clicking to pass a week without particular moments.
The corruption is a good idea probably the highlight of the game
As for lewd aspect, not bad but in general pretty tedious like others said .
Again 3 stars for Jennifer probably put only 2 if not for her.

TLDR: Tedious grind. Little and boring sex. Poor story. Blueballing. Schizofrenic story-telling where you suddenly and often control other people and watch them have sex without MC. But at least the MC is hot. Useless sandbox, should've been VN.

Positives:

• MC's body is hot! Not the most modern character models, but still very sexy. And good outfits.
• Quite good corruption (but too slow).
• Sexy degrading dialogue during sex scenes.
• Animations. Although they're basic and short, at least animations are included for each lewd scene.
• Interactivity: During sex scenes you can change camera angle and animation speed. It's better than nothing but not as good as the top games that let you change positions, choose anal/vaginal, etc. But now in S2 Ep2 there's one repeatable scene that let's you choose positions.
• The teenage sister losing her virginity to a stranger in the middle of a public park. In principle I don't want to control/see other characters than MC but at least lil sis' scenes are quite hot.
• Above-average renders.

Negatives:

• Grind! Get up, clean, gym, work, shower, make food, sleep, etc. Tons of clicks and repetition every day. Zero value in this.
• Very little sex. MC literally only fucks 4 times when you seize every opportunity.
• Vanilla and boring sex. Just pure vaginal, nothing exciting.
• Blueballing! Often convincing you there will finally be sex but at the last moment interrupting it. Frustrating.
• Very frequently you must play as other characters. Stupid and strange, the game should be about the MC. It feels like more than half the play time (when excepting the grind).
• Forced to watch other people having sex. Many times.
• Unskippable cutscenes. Tons of them. Very annoying. E.g. why the fuck do we need to wait 60 seconds to watch MC do leg presses in the gym?
• Doesn't need to be a sandbox game. It only adds annoying steps and a lot of clicking.
• Writing is very basic, unnatural. And the language is rudimentary, includes mistranslated words (in English).
• We even sometimes have to play as an unattractive, masculine-looking, older woman. I don't like her or the situation at all.
• And in this part of the story choices don't matter, no matter what you decide when playing as Adam the old woman will still be pushed on him and you're forced to fuck several times.
• Have to watch the same scenes over and over (to earn money, maintain hygiene, eat).
• Lesbianism required for maximum corruption points. Not my kind of thing. Also, forced lesbianism required to progress even when declining previous lesbianism choices.
• Character faces are not particularly good. Often an unattractive shape and the eyes look strange/dark. MC looks good though.
• Linear (almost kinetic) story poorly hidden by the sandbox. The only choices are, for each scene, sex or no sex. I mean, I always choose the maximum corruption (except for lesbian scenes), but I guess some people prefer more elaborate options and relationships.
• Minigames. Cleaning the house means clicking on items to clean. This adds nothing to a porn game.
• Bugs. E.g. dialogue doesn't reflect choices that I made, refers to scenes I didn't play.

Number of unique scenes:

• Vaginal: 4 (Without MC: 5 )
• Anal: 0 (Without MC: 0 )
• DP: 0 (Without MC: 0 )

(Version played: s2_e1_e2)

What's there is fine, and that's about it.

Points knocked off for the repetitive "sandbox" gameplay and unskippable animations (especially for scenes or characters you have no interest in), as well for the illusion of choice.

Skip button is annoying to not have in the animations. The reners are meh, unskippable animations are the worst. Pretty simple game with no goo things in it. The only good thing is the cheating aspect it was fresh how it was implemented.

I think this is easily one of the best visual novels I’ve played in a long time. I’m picky with these kinds of games, but Innocence or Money hooked me right from the start. It has that slow-burn charm where you tell yourself “just one more scene” and suddenly hours have passed.

You play as Jennifer, a sweet small-town girl from Greensdale who’s completely new to city life. She’s wide-eyed, naive, and totally unprepared for what’s waiting out there, which is exactly where you come in. At first, you want to protect her, keep her pure... but the game tempts you with all these little ways to do the opposite. Every decision you make pushes her toward either a wholesome, hardworking life or a much darker path, and watching her inch toward the edge (or take a running leap) is addictive.

What really works is the pacing. The game doesn’t rush; Jennifer’s transformation, whether toward virtue or corruption, feels earned. Choices have weight, and you can even influence the people around her, which adds a whole extra layer of intrigue. The renders are crisp, animations are smooth, and Jennifer’s design is perfect for her role. Even the soundtrack hits, with some new tracks now up on Spotify.

The latest update proves the dev is listening to feedback and planning ahead. There’s a new nightclub location full of trouble, a revamped massage center that’s way more engaging, and a handy “hide UI” option for the hotter scenes. Free-roam mode and repeatable events make it easy to explore without being locked into a linear path, and translations are noticeably better. The little touches, like Jennifer’s new laptop, help make the world feel more alive.

While the innocence route is there if you want it, I’ll admit the corruption side is where the real heat is. Watching Jennifer’s world grow bigger, riskier, and more tempting is pure fun.

If you like visual novels with a strong story, meaningful choices, and plenty of replayability, Innocence or Money is a dangerous little time sink in the best possible way. The dev’s passion shows in every update, and I can’t wait to see where Jennifer’s journey goes next.

This game is the reason I found this place. The whole corruption idea was such a turn on, the amount of options during the story telling was perfection for me at that time. Honestly, if it's a story driven game, with as many options as possible along the way, I think is a win. A lot of repetitive stuff, but not enough to make it unbearable. It's just the right stuff at the right time.
Yes the MC is too naive, yes she's super innocent, but it was a fun ride. Can't wait to see what the Dev comes up with.

basically the only visual novel that managed to keep me hooked for more than one season.

It has its flaws, such as few opportunities for choices, especially at crucial moments. In addition, the sandbox is quite mediocre and has very few interactions.

Innocence or Money (at least up to S2E2) is the definition of an average game. Not particularly good or bad in any way. The story like all the rest is average, a good deal of corruption (if you take the innocence path there is very little content, so there are no real choices beyond who do you corrupt her with) specially in season 1 with a more direct set of payoffs from the ending of it. Characters are not great and the writing is meh, but it gets the job done. I did dislike Bruce's introduction into the story, it comes out of the blue, in a drug plot that hadn't been part of Jennifer's story and ends up resorting to blackmail... al the while he goes around like he's such a dom and strong and he's going to break her and all he does is fuck her in a pretty soft vanilla way. The sandbox shouldn't be there, first of all because it's full of repetitive things you have to do with no real gameplay in them, and second because you don't even get the usual benefit of sandbox (doing things in the order you want) you have to follow the quests in a specific order or it just keeps giving you the same dialogues and scenes. So, if it is so straightforward and in Ren'py, it should have been just a VN, even though maybe the development in season 2 is hinting at maybe developing a bit more of a gaming side (I doubt it but...).

Render quality is pretty decent and Jennifer's model is great (the others are more irregular). Animations are plenty if a bit brief and I don't like how he forces us to watch certain of them for a while when they are really just pretty short loops. There is music but I turned it off so can't say, and there are moans and things like that for sound. And as far as bugs go, I only got a minor one and was able to solve it myself.

So, all in all, worth your while for some decent faps, won't change your life or make porn game of the year, but it's nice.

Lack of choice ruins another game.

I could see where the story was headed. Wasn't sure I would ultimately continue because there would come a time where you'd be forced to do something you didn't want to. I figured it'd be in the massage parlor.

Spoiler.......
Instead you're forced to make out with two men. One of which you've already turned down multiple times.

Not personally interested in an "innocence" run. Was instead looking to see if you could move through the game by ultimately rejecting the boyfriend and ending up as a lesbian.

My understanding is that the game dev doesn't tag their games, but the "lesbian" tag for this game seems to be entirely contingent on one scene.

Ultimately I feel as if I've wasted my time. Lack of character agency ruins another supposedly choice based game.

This is a solid corruption game that doesn't try to pass itself off as something it isn't. It also, perhaps, has one of the best hot sequences you will see in a corruption game at the end of Season 1 (if you make a certain choice.) There is a sandbox, but it really is not grindy at all (especially compared to most sandboxes.) The Dev is constantly improving the game with features and seems generally enthusiastic about the project.

Ok, for specifics: the MC is hot. Yes, that is subjective, but the model is a mix of cute/smoking that is very appealing. The corruption is well done for the most part (yes, some porn logic, but nothing outrageous.) The animation is well done with a variety of positions, angles and speeds. UI makes sense and easy to use.

Be warned, there is an old guy in this VN. Depending on choices he may be involved with the MC. There is an innocent path - however - why are you playing a corruption game to be innocent? No fun for you.

So, you want good renders, animations and a smoking MC? This is your jam. There are one or two other chicks around, but the MC is the main heat generator. She is enough. Try it out at least until the end of season 1.

I like the concept but i couldent get past the forced sex scenes where you look at old fat ugly dudes, why that is even a thing i will never understand.

But thats almost the main thing in this game, watching others have sex or play with them selfs.....and yeah you cant skip any of the shit if you hate it, same for other boring shit like watching MC try clothes...waste of time.
The sex scenes is forced constantly, how game is rated so highly when 95% of the sex scenes is watching other people then MC having sex? might as well just hit a porn site, faster and easiere......and you wouldent have to watch a million training animations that is also unskipable...ffs....

Also the hole controling other characters like the little sister, whats the point of a game if you controle everyone around ya? makes no sense, but then again your barely in controle of the MC either.......
And why dosent it have multiple protagonist tag? you controle Adam and the little sister as well.....

And dont even get me started on why she took the drugs or dident just trow the shit or flushed it out the second she got them, its just such a poor way of trying to make some weird corruption thing or make the little sister a drug user..... its just to stupid and when she notice theres alot of pills missing she dosent stop the sister either? how does that make sense? she claims to love her sister but let her become hooked on drugs? instend of going after her to get those pills away from her? i just cant stand stories this stupid.

Same for story even if someone tries to rape your ass you cant do a thing about it, cant get pissed, cant call the cops, you just bow down and lick the boots of your bitch boss? and accept it, i mean really? and next day you just go back to work as nothing has happened lol its a joke.

I was hoping there would be some kind of lesbian route but clearly thats not the case, sure you can be with prostitutes but thats not my kind of fun and for unknown reasons the hot red head in the gym has nothing to do with MC and you also controle the red head for some weird reason......

The sandbox part makes 0 sense, its extremly repetitive and all you do is follow a single quest at a time making it 100% linear gameplay with 0 freedom, why its even there i have no clue.

As for girls its proberly 95% bimbos and not many look all that good either.

Animations are pretty average and all forced and unskipable and mostly has nothing to do with MC....

Music is pretty decent.

Choices are pretty pointless, you controle some characters but they still do whatever they want so no real point in that, you only controle a little with MC to stay good or go bad, but in both cases MC is still brainless.

Then theres the season one cant be transfered to season 2? how stupid is that.....

The Game started off good but it's just a joke now. And the updates are a few
risen a repeat lewd stuff not worth mentioning lol! I actually thought about becoming a sub as I enjoy the first few chapters but thank god I didn't
I should know better with these sand box type games. For the most part I usually skip these types of games so my bad!

I quite like this game. Even though it was slow at first, it kept me looking out for this game. Gameplay is fine, little grinding, which is fine and daring scences. Of course it's cheating genre, so it's not for everyone, but lovers of it will like this game. Even more so now, where there's actual sex in it.

I plan to Talk about the lack of representation in the game. I hope this situation changes in the future, but it's one of those games where you're limited to the author's narrative. The female character treats the main character disrespectfully, and the protagonist seems to agree with her, perhaps because the author directed him that way. As a player, you're confined to this point of view; you can't disagree with the character. In fact, regardless of the situation, you can't have any opinion because you're restricted to how the author wants the protagonist to think. Besides that, the game seems promising

saison 1

You play as a girl who is literaly a slave, you are forced to clean a house for a few coin and she have no choice out because story made her stupid as fuck.

We add that everybody are rapist or mega douche so from the start the story is frankly unappealing

Add to that the unecessary sandbox and, i will repeat, that the mc is written as a mentally challenged person.

The visual are uneven it go from awesome to motly broken and the sex scene are a bit of meh. Oh wait ! did i told you the mc is stupid....? in case of you forgot.... she is..

the grind, oh good lord, the grind. the unskippable animation . the choice who aren't choice, wtf is wrong with u dev ?

Ps : the mc is really really dumb

+ game is focused on MC corruption. I fucking love how slutty she become
+ hot FMC
+ renders/animations
+ nice music
+ you love straight content? That's great! Thankfully it's main focus here
+ possible real action in the future, like: gangbang/MMF/DP... and much more.. i can't wait!
+ sandbox is not that bad, imo is well done compared to other avns i played

- not many lewd scenes, but what we already got it's good and satisfying
- sometimes characters keep repeating the same thing too many times during conversations or inner thoughts. It's become annoying when you heard and heard "how he will fuck her tonight" for example..

5 stars from me. I really enjoy this game and in the end - this is the most important thing, right?
