VN Ren'Py Karlsson's Gambit [v0.8.2A Final] [Grym Gudinna Games]

[WICKEDp4th]

How can I connect the 2 downloaded 7z files in a way that the game can be unzipped normally?

When you downloaded all the parts for the game, start unzipping the first part, the other parts gets automatically added and unzip the single parts into One Zip file, that contains the whole game. Unzip that file > enjoy your playthrough.

Unpopular opinion here: I just really wish we could get more of a spitting fetish action going on. ^_^

I somehow missed the previous episode so I got a 2-for-1 of my fav femdom game this new update, nice!

I honestly didn't expect that this will have some deep lore and world-building, pretty cool to see. So far I've tried a semi-blind run, i.e. no hints, which turned out into good k6+ (Dominique focused), then using the mod I did evil k6+(Juliette focused), good k4+ (Alessandra focused), and neutral k6+ (Veronica focused). I'm not particularly a hard sub myself so I avoided the K3- content. Personally most excited for Alessandra and Veronica paths.

Looking forward to how the plot unfolds. I'm currently more invested in the mystery and intrigue than the sexual content lol. The character relationships have also gotten quite complex with who is/isn't brother/sister, mother/daughter, aunt/niece, etc.

Just found this, took two full days and evenings for my first run through. Very impressed, for me the best game here and was so hard to stop and go to sleep. Grins.

Thanks heaps Tess. Cheers

Absolute brilliant update. The urge to get the best rank and build allies is really intense.
As for the evil route, I didn't find it that dark at all. Nowhere as bad as other VN's like Blackheart or Raptus on here.
I'm all for darker stuff on it and hey, you don't have to play evil, right? (aimed at the whiny resident troll on here)

Can't wait for the next update. Great game.

This game has become huge with 9600+ images, however it also has become quite difficult to play through all events due to the high number of parameters, e.g. Kane good/evil + dom/sub, Sis good/evil + dom/sub, rank k3-k9 (?), dom/sub skaling for individual characters, submission to selected mistresses, support/sponsorship by selected board members etc.

It would be helpful to have an integrated gallery which shows the player how many (lewd) events were found so far and how many are still too explore on different paths.
The gallery would probably be sorted by chapter, however it would be also good to have filters for additional path attributes like Kane good/evil + dom/sub, Sis good/evil + dom/sub, rank k3-k9, etc, so that the player could easily see if all events on a certain path (e.g. Kane dom good) have been found.
Since the game also contains some fetish content which probably does not fit everybody's taste (e.g. pissing, netori, etc), it would be good to be able to (optionally) hide events with such fetishes in the gallery via a filter.

I know that Sancho Mod provides some kind of gallery, however I think such a huge game needs a built-in gallery since otherwise all the players who don't use the mod will have no idea how much content they have missed. I guess that one playthrough just reveals maybe 20-30% of content, so many players probably miss 70+%.

Cynthia is Delilahs mother. She was saying how she's keeping Delilah busy enough so she doesn't have to see "dear ol mommy" as we later see Delilah doesn't want to talk to her mother and she seems to not like her as shown after her mother told her to clean up after the servant who was killed

This game has an amazing amount of content with a huge variety of locations and events and an interesting backstory/mystery to follow. The models are stunning with a great variety of amazing outfits and decoration details/jewelry.

However I see some options for improvement :
- animations : the animations I've seen so far in the game are mostly average. Since the quality of other aspects of the game is higher, the animations lower the overall impression of the game a bit. Doing good animations is hard work and requires a lot of skill and experience. Most devs try for years and still fail to achieve high quality animations, so there is no reason to feel bad if animations do not excell. For me good games without animations are fine. If you want to include animations, try to improve the quality and omit those animations which do not work out as planned. (As reference : A game with (mostly) fine to amazing animations for me is BeingADik.)
- vulva/vagina 3d model : The vulva/vagina area of the female models looks too simplistic and unrealistic compared to other aspects of the models. This seems to be a standard 3d model since I remember this type of vagina from older games. Vagina and anus in the game are unusually red compared to the other skin color, vagina seems always open, labia are hard to see. There are games which use a more realistic 3d model for vagina/vulva, e.g. "University of Problems".
- mc's dick : Maybe it is caused by Veronica's experiments, but the mc's dick when erect seems unnaturally huge. I guess it is more than twice as long as the average erect penis. In real life this would probably cause severe problems during intercourse since it also would be more than twice as long as the average vagina.

Femdom :
I think I've seen most of the events, either ingame or by browsing the image folder.
Some sex and BDSM features like spanking, bondage (e.g. leash and collar), sex toys (e.g. butt plug, strap on), anal sex, etc seem to be less used compared to others like female masturbation, oral service, vaginal sex.
Having mc wear a buttplug during day might be difficult since it could affect more than one event and if events are shared with different paths, this could cause inconsistencies. However female characters could use buttplugs in single events as well.
There are a few rough encounters with spanking/paddling/slapping and pegging for mc, but there could be also some rough submission events for Olivia (sub) when she submits as slave to one of the Karlsson Sisters or when she uses one of her own male/female slaves.

I revisited the scenes where Juliette refers to Cynthia that way and apparently she does say in another line "your mother" instead of "our mother" or simply "mother." I thought because of the familiarity between Delilah and Juliette (for example Delilah refers to Juliette by first name while the other girls refer to Juliette as Mistress) it was being implied that they had another bond (DeKock half-sisters) between them. Seems like I may have been reading too deeply into it.

I have quick question for Tess Sadist if you go down in K1 path are going to be able turn tables and get back at Karlsson sister for the shit that making you do? because you not showing any dominate trait or showing signs for standing up for yourself but it seems you are nothing but slave.

 

[Don Sucio]

I have just finished my two routes (dom and sub) in 0.6.2 and I can say that it is without a doubt the best update so far, it is without a doubt the longest, with constant lewd scenes and numerous decisions, the story is well spun and not it loses the thread and also has an ending that presents many doubts. But yes, I am a little sad since I have not been able to enjoy the lewd scene between the main MCs... although I suspect from what I have seen that for chapter 7 I will be able to see my long-awaited incest scene, although I am curious to see if It will only be in the sub route or also in the dom... I suppose it will be seen. Good job, I will certainly be waiting for the next chapter.

I know this is really unimportant and effectively a throwaway line, but it bothered me so I have to say something: during this update there's a scene you can enounter where Veronica shows MC a 3D projection room which has "over fifty thousand individual lights that can be utilized for various projections". That number strikes me as ridiculously small; a tiny 2D screen of 224 by 224 resolution has over fifty thousand pixels after all (and a single pixel is itself arguably comprised of multiple "individual" lights, depending both on the technology used and one's pedantry). This is all before you even factor in the fact that it's a 3D display, where a cube of only 37 pixels in each dimension is enough to pass over the 50k threshold. Modern screens are well into the millions of pixels, and we see characters using smartphones/tablets and modern looking computers in this very episode, and yet the room supposedly also eats up so much power that Veronica would not run it even "eight hours a day", it just doesn't add up.

As I said, it's just a line said in passing of no relevance to the actual plot, so it really doesn't matter (and frankly the world building in this game is a bit of a mess in general, though that's besides the point), but still...

And don't get me wrong, I do really like this game.

I am pretty sure by light she means each individual lighting apparatus, not just a single point source of light. The machine is probably a sci-fi version of the projectors you find in planetariums. With already limited power running 50000 such projectors will definitely be taxing.

Is the difference between the beta and the final patch just the extra scenes right at the end?

The Beta version does not have the new Playthrough save system in it; both Final versions do.

• This can be handy for categorizing your saves in whatever manner you see fit; attached is an example of many Playthroughs, all of which may contain many saves.
• There is a button on the regular Ren'Py Save/Load screens to access Playthroughs, and a button on the Playthroughs screen to get back to the Ren'Py Save/Load screens ( ::: ). Playthroughs and saves can be renamed at any time, among many other features; there is a button that opens the Help Guide on the Playthroughs screen ( ? ).

Few more random thoughts

Nadia's my new fav character. That whole epic fail thing on the dying slave was a nice touch.
Is it weird that of all the disturbing things in this episode, that the thing that made me the most squeamish was Cynthias apparent love of raw meat?
Can the male members of zacks family catch a break, first zack, then his dad, now his uncle

Wonder if anyone can help me out, have 3 playthroughs currently, Good dom/Good Sub/Good Pure sub.

Between good dom and sub I don't think I've noticed a single variation between any scenes? both K8 currently with the dom/sub scores having no impact. i was hoping the K8 pure sub would unlock the sub Alessandra scene at least but it hasn't.

read this earlier in regards to it by Tess "One scene is based on being a pure dom (never licked Alessandra's foot in earlier update, and NOT flagged a sub K5 - e.g. a former K4 or lower player promoted to K5) and the second is based on Kane either licking her foot as a dom OR being flagged as a sub K5, a new former sub path promoted to K5 during 0.5. "

I remember in previous updates at the pool with Olivia and Alessandra, there was an option to lick her feet or something similar that let her know you are a sub in the bedroom but seems to have been removed if I'm correct, as I had no option to do so? leaving no way to get the sub scene unless I'm on the full sub path down in k5 etc?


My other query is on my pure sub path I get Dominique then Juliette for the two exes I work with for the day instead of Veronica/Dominique. I've never expressed any interest in Juliette or evil and always gone for the former two so anyone know if I've fucked up somewhere somehow or just not possible?

I've also attached the K8 Sub and Pure sub points at the respective scenes if it helps at all, as I'm totally dumbfounded

Edit: Managed to get onto Alessandra sub path with a bunch of fiddling and retries, but still no luck on the pure sub path of avoiding Juliette as of yet

Hey, TessSadist,

Just a question I had, having finished the update (not sure whether you can answer it cause it might be spoiler territory, but curiosity just got the better of me. So if you can't talk about it due to it being too spoilery, feel free to say so. No pressure).

Spoiler: Regarding Delilah, one of the Vipers
