I think Celesphonia are close, if not even better than Karryn. It lacks management aspect of Karryn, but compensates it with a lot of other mechanics, like changeable clothes or cursed bdsm-equipment (at least in CN mod), or different ways of corruption - not only desire, but also hypnosis, drugs, blackmailing, questionable jobs and etc. And battlefuck system don't have that silly KP's design when MC basically lets men use her only the ways she really wants to, like she is the one who really always been in charge of everything.

Aura also is an amazing game. It feels more like an actual game with decent RPG system, where corruption path is not the main part of it, rather than an eroge where everything else designed around 18+ content. But it's really well developed and huge game that can be enjoyable by itself and really challenging, with NSFW as a cool bonus. And protagonist's transformation from really smart and rebelous school nerd to mean cynical gyaru bitch is admirable and monumental of how scrupulously it's depicted and implemented into player's decisions.
Thanks for remind me of SKA, it's a blast. I dont see any connections between it's a Karryn Prison tho

I miss both celesphonia and this game a lot, I honestly do not think any game will ever come close to these two games. Exorcism goddes is another game which showed great potential, but its as good as abandoned. with AI slop epidemic these days such games are unfortunately gone.

I keep seeing updates and patches come out for this game, what all do they just keep changing? They might as well have just spent the effort giving us an expansion or something or made another Karryn Prison style game

I think they added art for the main menu, at least I noticed there's new main menus yesterday, Karryn can either appear like normal in her uniform, naked or in a new anime style art made by Sachinama.

Otherwise it seems they broke the cut ins as they now appear one in top of the previous ones without resetting until the fight ends. It could be just me, but I don't have mods installed.

mostly bug hunting/balancing the game, but I agree, they have a lot of room for new content, they just didn't care. Seeing the quality of some mods, there's hope for a modder to develop new activities (infirmary, pool/spa session, an enhanced waitress job at the refectory, an hybrid job between waitress and receptionist working as a secretary in the admin floor, etc...), expand some paths and endings that the dev abandoned (a real sadist path that ends with the emperor become Karryn's gimp in a "pure" route and an another end where the prisoners become fear cowering masochist sex toys for Karryn in a "slut" route).

AGI is the most all-in stat in the game, you either don't want to bother with it or want as much as you can possibly get. The rest are secondary stats, and I think STR is superior to DEX to pair with AGI simply because every attack you do levels it and your counterattacks will oneshot most enemies with even moderate strength investment.
Also, Mind is good on every build.
If you aren't playing on Prisoner mode, you'll be fine even with bad builds though.
Also a STR-based counterattacker build is the best and most reliable combat build for the toughest challenges in game (except endless, never tried it).
wait, dumb as fuck question: you can actually LEVEL your stats? How?by using them? cause if thats the case then I fucked up. Because 99% of the time I use the red hammer icon (STR I believe) because it seems to do the most damage. Did I play the fucking game wrong for over 20 hours so far? I didn't even know you can level these stats. So my question once again; how do i level them? by using them? should i just spam the blue spear attack to level it no matter what enemy?

I seem to be getting this error. I have uninstalled and reinstalled. i have removed mods. i even tried renaming one of the audio files to the file that seems to be missing yet still it gives me this error. Any help would be great.

No you didn't play it wrong. Concentrating on one physical stat is always a good idea. There's pros and cons to each of them, but a strength build is perfectly viable.

It's nothing of value each time

Never understand why they don't just make a big patch like everyone...

If going for an agility build in particular, yes spamming the "blue spear "would be a good idea, especially early on. Once you get a couple of training upgrades for the stat you do want (DON't get the training upgrades for the stats you don't want), you can use the other attacks more freely.
There are a bunch of ways to level each stat, here is just a few:
Strength: almost any attack but red give more xp
Dexterity: yellow attacks, counter-attacks
Agility: blue attacks, dodging or being grazed by attacks
Stamina: anything that spends stamina

I wanna try out a counter attack build. so if i understand you correctly, I must level DEX then, the yellow attack, correct?

I actually prefer a high str, minimal agi and dex build for counterattacks. The reason being is that Str also decreases the damage you take, unlike dex which has no defense at all. Since STR is also a factor in the damage of your counters, you will be one-shotting people even on prisoner difficulty most of the time. Be sure to get the defensive halberd counterattack upgrade as well and Defensive stance is a must.

oh, interesting. i thought dex or agi increase the dodge or counter attack chance though?
