I dunno, but in my case the game consuming 900-1000 MB RAM max. It's something with your pc.
My pc don't have the magical ability to multiply a game's memory consumption. No one's pc has that kind of ability.
Fyi, I can play cyberjunk 2077 without any problems.

Idk but your memory consumption does seem abnormal because my always stay around 1.5-2GB in the latest build regardless of how many jobs/battles/sex scenes I engage with, in the older build it hardly used to go 3GB+ and even then it automatically decreases in time. Have you tried clearing the game's cache to see if that helps?

Last 2 reviews of the game:

"The art is awesome, the gameplay is pretty solid, the build variety is good, and the plot is decent." 2/5 stars

"Is the game good?
Yes, I'm very comfortable saying so.
People weren't joking when they said it's the first of it's kind.
It's remarkable how an Eroge game was created with a fairly original gameplay loop." 3/5 stars
"3 times I restarted the game on Warden difficulty, 3 times I got to level 3 of the prison, and 3 times I reached a point where we couldn't finish the bigger fights anymore. The icing on the cake was my last playthrough, where I got right before the level boss without so much as kissing anyone, but she was so sadistic at that point that she would orgasm by defeating enemies. Like WTF am I supposed to do?" 2/5 stars.

"It deliberately withholds information from you just to make the game obtuse.
Not harder, just obtuse. " 3/5 stars.

Quotes I wrote here are taken from the same reviews you quoted.
They make sense. They're right on point with those reviews. Game is annoying af for a h game. I'm not saying game is trash but reviews like those are true. Game could use some transparency in a lot of it's mechanics instead of hiding them.

It is abnormal. I was playing on 1.0.1 version for majority of my playtime and it had the same issue. Then switched to 1.0.5j fairly recently and this still happens.
How can I clear game's cache? Never tried that before.

Doesn't the game literally tell you that it purposefully hides stuff from you to make it harder? I've had my fair share of H-games and I can tell you that most games have such an easy, shitty gameplay that you barely get to see the H-stuff if you're good at the game, and that to me is just disgusting. Sure I want to play the game, but I also want to see tiddies, you know.

To me Karryn's Prison is just well made, the information is all there (not everything in game, but you're on the games thread) you just have to look for it. When you know what you're doing, you can easily clear the game without ever seeing a dick (dunno if you can even find that fun). That or you can just cheat your way through

Open your file explorer and copy/paste the following into the address bar:
C:\Users\%UserProfile%\AppData\Local\karrynsprison50\User Data

Delete everything inside there and it will regenerate all the files once you start the game.

This where I don't agree with:
I don't consider a game as "well made" if I have to look for a guide on the internet OR find some important mechanics while digging through its files. Imo KP is a well made game by H game standarts but it is mediocre at best when compared to other turn based non-h games. A good game wouldn't need to hide information from the player, it'd instead give everything and let players decide what to do with it. That's what turn based strategy games are all about, give info to player and let them decide what to do with it. Sadly KP fails in that regard, it's still a good h game though.

Open your file explorer and copy/paste the following into the address bar:
C:\Users\%UserProfile%\AppData\Local\karrynsprison50\User Data

I'll give it a try. I'll edit this post if it worked or not.
Btw there's a shortcut for Local folder: %localappdata%
Edit: That had no effect, game was still using 4.5gb ram :/

Quit arguing, you lot. The game is good, but its a rogue-like with a hentai cover up. Yes, information is hard to find. It is intentionally hidden from the player to make it hard. As a rogue-like, id give it a 4/5 (too many mechanics are plainly hidden, and thats not a good thing, even in a rogue-like), but as a hentai game that would be 5/5 (great voice acting btw, and i dont mean the sex scenes, but the battle shouts; its extremely hard to get these right without sounding like me in the morning "hurrrrrrghhhh").

The reviews are spot on. The criticism isnt there some of the times, but thats because people get in there thinking its just another h-game, and dont take the time to learn the mechanics (remember my complaints when i first started? yeah).

Completed a virgin run in warden difficulty using agility stat, man it's really hard without save scumming and I had to rely flaunting for the debuffs.
Also, anyone knows how fatigue is calculated? does the number of enemies, number of turns and level of enemies have anything to do with it?

My guess, in battles gained fatigue is based on number of turns, you used to defeat enemies. More actions you do, more fatigue Karryn will be (but idk, how it works with sex builds, it seems different).
On side jobs, it depends of amount of time you worked.

You can be defeated and not resort to save scumming. Just retreat. Besides, the "defeat fight" will not end with penetration, if you keep your desires low (which you should always do on a virgin run, during battle, which means forsaking using Ki or Focus just to keep a desire down; sucks but thats how it has to be). As a rule of thumb: dont get into fights when youre over 50% fatigued, as thats when you can no longer retreat from a fight (im not even mentioning the stat penalties). Fighting a orange/red/purple named Lizardman, if you cant one shot him at the start of the fight, will usually dictate a retreat; especially when youre heavily (up to 49%) fatigued.

Also, anyone knows how fatigue is calculated? does the number of enemies, number of turns and level of enemies have anything to do with it?
As for fatigue, im not sure on that, but it feels to me that the fatigue gain increases based on the level you are vs the level of enemies you fight. Dont think battle duration/turn count matters in this regard. There is, however, a direct correlation between fatigue and pleasure gain: the more fatigued you are, the quicker sadism will increase your pleasure. This can have a number of bad effects (low willpower regen + higher chance to fumble attacks when at high pleasure), bad passives included (orgasming mid-fight all the time does bad things to your stats, even if its unavoidable in some situations).

Just started playing the game. Opened successfully and played for a bit yesterday, but when I tried to play today
I got this error. Please help.

Don't create long paths like that, some programs and windows itself doesn't like it.
Move the game to a shorter path, something like C:\Users\UserName\Desktop\KP or C:\Games\KP.
Then run the game as administrator because Error: EPERM sounds like a permission problem to me.
