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

[Stan5851]

But for now, I have only one guess - Veronica is simply fulfilling Gambit's terms, trying not to give either side a clear advantage. She may have her own goals, but they're too broad and have to do with entirely different things, most of which are the survival of the people and the mainland... Veronica has no need for power. What would have happened if Cynthia had told Kane (Dom) about his father and everything else... It's not hard to understand - for one thing, Kane could have joined the DeKocks by then, having taken offence at what the Alexander did to Cole. (and Kallista)..

Disclosure by either of the Karlsson sisters could (theoretically) encourage KaneDom to side with the sister who first shared the revelations with him, but remembering that neither side should have an advantage over the other, their silence could also make sense. It can be a kind of unspoken agreement between the sisters that they will be honest with each other and follow some rules...For example, an agreement that each of the sisters has the right to sponsor Kane.

However, we are already seeing some attempts to disrupt the Gambit and break the established rules.Dominique is trying to impregnate herself with Kane's sperm (unsuccessfully), Alessandra wants to organise the murder of the sisters, Juliette makes an alliance with Dominique, preparing for direct conflict with Veronica (and Olivia). In any case, there is still a semblance of order for now, but very soon everything will collapse (I think so) and many rules (including the prohibition on disclosure of information) will go to hell.

Folks, I'm as annoyed as you are that nothing is being said to Kane. But either it's some kind of Tess' considerations (like smoothly revealing the intrigue for those players who are not much immersed in analyzing the game events), or there's something behind it that we can't understand yet...and it makes us angry...

Yes, of course, someone can always assume that Veronica planned everything and gagged everyone, but I don't think it's that simple...There's something else going on here that even DeKocks (the same Cynthia) is keeping quiet about.. Did Veronica shut her up too? I don't think so...Anyway, I'm in favor of Kane being told the whole truth (and preferably in the next part of ch8), but we'll see how it plays out.

The Karlsson's (I say as a group) obviously have something on the Dekoks for sure. Like the meeting with Cynthia, was organised by Elena and Elena made sure Cynthia only said the 'right things' etc. You can't even say they are using Cole against them (a threat) as most people think he is dead (confirmed by Tess)...including most of the board. So it has to be something else that makes the likes of Cynthia (who remember, according to Phoebe in the crpyt, Elena and Yvette are no match for her) go along with what they want. The Gambit in reality is no one elses concern outside the Karlsson's. Why would they care?

So why would they go along with all the riddles and being crpyptic? What is so obviously serious (other than it's Tess' story) to stop Cynthia say...hey Nephew Kane..my brother is yo daddy! Ooops...sorry Elena...what you going to do about it bitch?

Yup...all hell is going to break loose!

Hi, really loving the game! Without spoiling is there:

a) an opportunity to shrink the MCs penis size?
b) anything I should be keeping an eye out for to make sure this happens?

I think it's the most obvious thing in the world - gaining power over the Karlsson Group through his relative protégé Kane.

It's just that this cold war used to be fought on an equal footing and, as they say, nothing was going to go wrong, but with Alexander's death, the DeKocks had a real opportunity to take on their main competitor, the Karlsson Group. And Cynthia would be a fool if she didn't try to do it the legal way (by winning the Gambit). The same can be said for New Paris. I'm sure they didn't just come here to torture and kill slaves either...These guys will also be looking for allies in the coming war for power over the grand prize and it's just a question of who they'll join in this lion fight.

Eeehhh...no...not in the way I assume you mean at least....but if go sub path route...you will spend 98% of your time in a 'cage' which is too small for you

Hmmm...fair points....fair points....

It could be a ticket on the Ark for her family, or a promise that if Kane is good enough to take over the company, the Board will not challenge him, and so the rivalry between the families will be over. But it must be some sort of a carrot, Cynthia doesn't strike me as a woman who takes kindly to threats. Though I'll admit it doesn't work as well if Kane is a K2 doggie.

Regardless, all the bitches will pay for their deceits and manipulations, papa Cole is coming back, and he's gotta be very angry. (Please, Miss Tess, don't make him into a whimpering looser, we have plenty of those already).

Yeah she’ll let have Delilah take Kane if he’s on the sub path

 

[TrueKing]

Is this update worth playing if I already played the 0.8 Test beta version?

 

[Maviarab]

On a lead? Don't forget to let Kane out for a pee in the yard before heading to bed

If on Sub Path, perhaps as there an extra scene you can see, dom path no.

I'm already visualizing this scene. The long-awaited reunion of daddy Cole and Kane.

Tho I will find it funny when/if Cole meets Kane… on both paths Tess said that Cole would do anything to help/save Kane!.. so im excited either way! Hahaha

I think there will be customised content for each rank from now on.
For example, when I finished the first part of ch8 being K4, I didn't see the tongue modification scene that I read about above.
And the scene with Veronica surprised me, especially as I remember Tess saying that she had to think about what to do with the Dom Kanes who refused to participate in the show with the caveat that they would miss out on a lot of content.

 

[Stan5851]

Speaking of Kane, who doesn't like to upset his dad..

Tess posted a new trailer for the Steam version of KG (in her Discord). It's preliminary and will still be edited/refined, but basically we have a 2,5 minute video about the game. About half of the video is dedicated to the Dom route, and the other half is sub..

The video is too big (over 200mb), so I can't attach it to a post here. But I came across an interesting screenshot where Kane once again gives Cole and Callista a "reason to be proud"... Am I right in assuming that this shot is from the upcoming pt2 of Ch8 or is it already in the game? Because to me it looks like the beginning of the game show.

Spoiler: game show?

You only get the tongue modification, if you choose Kane instead of Jake in the sub playthrough (K1-k4)… but most definitely there will be a greater variety of content since k1-k2 ( is more of the slave playthrough) and k3-k4 is the servant play differential… some characters will have want kane no matter what but some characters will be exclusive to those respective turnouts… there’s also some characters that’ll romance Sub Kane but I put those characters in k3-k4…(you’ve probably saw my route tree already lol)

Thankfully or interestingly, perks aside (home/servant) most of DomKane's content does not change at all. I hoping on the non-show choice we get a little more interaction with our girls, though we didn't in part 1....so maybe it really is a bad choice content wise if nothing else.

That's from FashionShow (ep.5 I think), the one where you can wiggle your ass on stage. You can see a part of it.

You mean the decision way way back when Olivia meets the Doc? And no, I haven't seen your route tree , is it a pdf file?
