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

[tobiume08]

Not the vibe I have picked up from playing the game. Delilah seems bored of her mother's ways of doing things.

Maybe she is actually ambitious and wants to take over her family? And Kane is the one that can help with that? That would be an interesting development.

I can imagine what it would actually look like, ha-ha. The view from Kane's Evil Dom side.

If you're a dom, juliette is almost def not the endgame you want. Tess already told you in game what would happen. Juliette would drug you and fuck you till you got a male heir and then shed turn you into one of her mindless slaves.

Won't happen if we aren't playing the game, will wait for a few updates but for now seems like the game isn't for me.

I always aim for the top of the pyramid in games like these but seems like the top in this one is inaccessible.

The top is very much accesible, just not with Juliette. You could do it with any other sister or love interest.

I don't think this is the fate of MC Evil Dom. Drugging and screwing Kane before the heir is born is more of a sub path in my opinion, the Good/Evil Dom path definitely implies a different outcome, otherwise it's not a Dom at all. I'm willing to bet that Evil Dom Kane, playing his cards right, could surpass Juliette by the end of the game. The only question is whether it's worth it. I had enough of a scene on Juliette's yacht to realize that this crazy bitch should either become Kane's slave (Good dom or Evil, doesn't matter) or be destroyed at the first opportunity.

If we accept the most obvious outcome - Evil Dom Kane gets the keys to the empire (or both empires) by having Juliette as an ally - then they'll probably have some kind of dark alliance, most likely a romantic one, as far as that word even applies in this case. I'm even curious as to what this hypothetical romance between Evil Dom MC and Juliette would look like. It would probably be another lethal torture session of some "guilty" slave girl/boy.

Perhaps you're right. However, I just don't see Juliette willing to share power with anybody. If you look at all the other sisters, they get something from dom Kane ( Dominique- someone to either share her hidden sadistic streak with or to reinforce she's a good person depending on your alignment, Veronica- gets back the only person who's ever saw her as a friend, Olivia gets to rule with the person that she's closest to, and Alessandra gets to rule with a like-minded individual who she can truly be herself with) but Juliette gets nothing other than the company. Regardless of Tess's juliette ending, I'd always watch my back around Juliette if I were Kane

 

[Remembrance]

So what are the chances that we will have a real Dom route with Juliette instead of a romance route, if I am on Dom route with some character I would like it be a dom instead of it being on her terms or even mutual terms.

Also in general is Dom route a real one or is it fake one, just for adding the tag to hook the other audience's attention?

By a fake one, I mean that he gets to dominate the mistresses's slaves or at best some softer mistresses but he never gets to dominate the top brass and vice versa for the real one.

More kink content, yes. The dev is femdom oriented irl as explained in the op. So the game so far is mostly femdom in sub route with (vanilla) fucking real men(mc) in the dom route.
As the game goes on however there's more kink stuff on the dom route as the dev gets more experienced in creating them i guess.
A story element that goes along nicely with this is that MC started as a lowly prisoner. As he gains more power, more opportunities to dom should present themselves hopefully.
The next chapter should have some dom content with the female pod & sone evil content with the gameshow, with those crossing over hopefully.

So far the dom route is more of a Vanilla route where the MC bangs a lot of women without getting dommed himself. Even when he gets to dom others, it's more at the behest of the women, like the scenes with Juliette.
But the female pod & upcoming gameshow event should have opportunities for the MC to excercise his newfound powers to dom others.

As for the top brass/main women, that should be more of an end game content since he's not even an executive yet.

There's totally a path to the top & possibly with everyone, including Juliette.
Stan5851 said it well above, you can probably get to decide her fate, whether to evily romance her, just ally with her vision, or to go against her, possibly enslaving her.
I think MC will have the opportunity to become the new Alexander who doms everyone & everything at the company, given the choices chosen lead you to that path/ending.

The gambit is not as simple as it seems, with new variables being discovered every update.
Unless the player opts for the MC to be submissive/incompetent to get to the sub route, the dom MC probably has the means to get to the top. Calista gave him enough training as we can see from the flashbacks, even sending Olivia as a sleeper agent possibly.
Calista wouldn't allow her blood to be caught unless it was part of a carefully arranged plan, an opportunity for the MC.

I too like games where the MC can end up at the top of the pyramid & that's why I like this game, the rank promotions by playing appropriately feel like veritable progress to that end. Z rank here I come

yeah i like the pacing so far. The MC shouldn't be able to dom much as he is at best a above average Employee level of ranks atm. He only recently got some level of power so Im stoked for the next chapter. He is also very flexible which is very different from what i normally see on this site. Hope we get to do some interesting stuff next chapter, both wholesome or brutal

 

[DangleDing]

hey is episode 8 out yet?

[Remo007]

I think those are game Tess play personally or games she likes,nothing in common with Karlsson´s Gambit universe.

 

[MilesEdgeworth]

she like most patreon creators has cross promotional deals where if she promotes their games, they'll promote hers

 

[Don Sucio]

We don´t have any news about launch right? I suposse many people here are playing Starfield, this is a little dead

Apparently, the release date of the update will be postponed. Force majeure, but it's not that bad, data recovery work is going on. As they say, shit happens. So it's a good time to close old gaming debts (or open new ones by starting to play Star...).

Minor update as I grind away:

1) This is not a small deal to me at all, but after two days of hard work, I have managed to recover the entire Episode 8 script and have just merged my new script file (I wrote about 100 new renders in two scenes so far this week as I couldn't render quite yet) with the old, and now it's all back whole to one big Episode 8 file again. The current script is roughly 4,300 lines which is about right as to where I am, and as a reference, Episode 7 with about 4,300 renders was roughly 16,500 lines of code. So it feels about right, and have double checked everything.

I want to thank my emergency team channel here on Discord of Mistress Anais Mistress Phoebe Wills747 Edge070 Noneya666 James for ALL of their help and sage advice, especially as I was very very distraught when this happened.

2) I have still not recovered my Daz assets and some renders from about 11 days of prior work (this is about 80-90 renders and the sub poll harsh renders I had got to 34 out of 40, the 15 I released on Patreon is all I have left as renders but no duf files which are the saved Daz files for edits, etc.) I am currently rebuilding as I go, a slave of mine has about 250GB of assets and I had about 330 GB so trying to figure out how to transfer the files somehow but I am going back to my old purchases on Daz and Renderosity and going to redownload some tonight and most tomorrow I hope.

3) This same slave has most of the character dufs and I have some I saved from about a year ago so between us, I think we are pretty solid with some catch up to do. (I was most worried about this and the script because they are more creative/unique stuff versus assets and renders which I can re-download and re-do)

4) Just throwing one random pic, this is just a personal favorite for me in real life (although I cannot find a good sushi/rice asset that looks how I want) so just throwing it out there.
5) More later I hope.


Mistress Tess (yesterday)

I have updated Patreon, it is a bit long but I wanted to cover what happened with my crisis with data/computer. I will try in the next 1-2 weeks give a more game focused overview of everything/big picture, but for now I'm still in hardcore recovery mode. Thanks all! (some previews here, some were recovery shots, a few will not been by almost anyone, and...yeah, just enjoy heh...crap gotta fix one already lol

I was worried that the next chapter wouldn't have lewd scenes between Olivia and Mc, but seeing the previews maybe we can get something. I hope Tess gives us some advanced sex scenes between these two, at least on the dom path, where nothing has happened yet. We'll see if we see something like that or if Tess decides to move it to the next chapter.

I share your concern and look forward to the MC+Olivia scene on the Dom track. I don't know if the sex scene will be in this chapter or the next, but at least we have this (from Tess's discord channel, 06/25/2023)

This at least shows that Olivia has gotten even closer, which is a new level, up until now there was nothing explicit between them except for the moment when MC Dom wiped her naked body with a towel in Ch7. So even if that's all it's going to be, it's another step towards direct physical contact between MC and Olivia. At least I really hope so.
