    Version Reviewed: v0.33.3

    Overview: A management sim/corruption game about a guy who runs a tiny pharmaceutical startup in a city populated by lots of beautiful women.

    Story: You inherit a failed drug company and have to make money to keep it afloat. Luckily there is no FDA in this world to harsh your buzz. You literally only have to test it once on an employee and if they don't immediately drop dead you're good to start production and sales. As for the rest of the story, there is none. Some of the girls in your life kind of have story-like events that happen from time to time, but it's 99% managment sim.

    Gameplay: Overwhelming. When you first start out you will be lost, even with the tutorial. Expect to fail your first business while you try to figure out the game mechanics. I've played for a few hours and still don't have a good solid business running. It took me an embarassingly long time to realize that the mini-achievement thing is actually how you level up. And this isn't even touching the corruption stuff that unlocks the sex scenes (eventually). The interface is not great, and everything is just a hair too complicated or poorly documented IMHO.

    Here's a quick checklist of what you need to do to sell your first pill:
    1. Research some drug effect
    2. Craft your pill recipe
    3. Research the pill recipe (easy to miss)
    4. Set the production schedule, including the weights for each production line. (different screen)
    5. Buy raw ingredients (different screen)
    6. Produce the pill, by repeatedly clicking the production button until some are created. You don't get feedback on how many pills were created in this step, you have to check in a different screen.
    7. Divert some of the pills to sales (different screen, buried deep in a menu, if you forget to do this the sale will fail but not tell you why)
    8. Sell the pills (different screen).

    You can save yourself effort by setting thresholds where pills will automatically be diverted to sales, but that's far from obvious, and of course it is on a different screen.

    Presumably you will eventually research some really profitable pills and be able to afford a full staff so the company basically runs itself, but early on it's a huge amount of grind just to keep the company above water while the research team grinds out more pill effects and you level up your research domains (another screen).

    The UI for all of this involves loads of clicking between different areas a selecting from two or three deep submenus. This is one of the few porn games where I think Ren'Py may be the wrong choice. All of the drug production stuff should be in a single tabbed window with a clear workflow.

    As for the corruption game mechanics, well, they're kinda terrible. Each girl has some usually randomized mechanics to make them unique, but it's basically "do they hate Mondays, Y/N?" and that seems to only matter early on when you're trying to grind up the love stat so you can use the easier complement/flirt options. It's really hard to read the feedback to figure out if you're wasting your time molesting them and to advance you need to use one of the date options or do something else. There is no in-game hint system as far as I can tell, except for a note at the end of the day that they're over-corrupted for their base corruption stat. It's very easy to spin your wheels forever because the game is telling you that you're plussing up stats that end up reverting every day. In order to satisfy girls you need to level up your sex skills which involves doing mini-achievement things every day, some of which are difficult or impossible without high sex skills. You can at least reroll each task once a day.

    Artwork: It's kinda meh. The system for dressing up characters is super cool in concept, but is clunky in practice. The girls look ok, but it's not a visual treat. One impressive thing is that the city is populated by randomly generated characters that you can also seduce, however the amount of randomness is quite limited so it ends up feeling like more like you're grinding up the same characters over and over except this time they like research projects instead of hating them or something.

    Bugs: I ran into quite a number of Ren'Py error screens. The "push clothes to the side" mechanic appears to be completely broken in this version. Also, the end of the day summary screen was always telling me that I'd made like 10-15 pills, but when I'd check there would only be like 5 new pills to sell on the next day.

    Conclusion: This is an incredibly ambitious game with actual gameplay, but the horrendous UX compounds the grindy and poorly explained gameplay systems. The art is adequate but nothing to write home about. The sex scenes require a lot of grinding to unlock--the actual sex sim part is extremely menu focused, slow, grindy, and heavily gated as well. It's not that great for fapping. The business sim part could be good with a serious UI overhaul.

    I'd say as games go on this site, this one is quite divisive. There are as many 4-5 star reviews as there are 1-2 star reviews, and frankly, I get it. Although I'm a big fan of this game and it has unique elements that make it almost infinitely replayable, it also has a laundry list of flaws that players need to get past first. Frankly, when I saw this thread for the very first time, I saw the renders and was like "oh yuck I'll never play that"... I now consider this one of my all time favorite H games.

    To begin with, let me describe my personal setup for this game. I will not be reviewing pure "vanilla" Lab Rats 2, as the mod created by Trollden / Tristim / LZ_Starbuck adds some great features and bugfixes. If you're trying the game for even the first time, I'd still recommend using the mod (it has a standalone exe too, so you don't even need to mod an existing LR2 install!). The other thing to note is that I play this game with animations turned off. This sounds like a small thing, but the animations are buggy, annoying, and drag down the experience (in my opinion), so I'd say it's better to play with them off.

    Okay, so now we've got a stable and slightly enhanced copy of Lab Rats 2. What can we actually do? To me, the best part of the game is that it takes the best elements of VNs and sandbox games and combines them. There is some overarching plot that takes place a few years after the first game, but the core gameplay (at first) is about creating a profitable business. Actions in the game takes time and energy, so if you spend too much time flirting or messing around, your ability to turn a profit will suffer. Although this may sound annoying, I generally find the early-game business management content to be quite fun, fair, and well-balanced. There's no "right" or "only" way to do things, and after 20 ingame days, two players' companies might produce totally different serums or have a totally different set of employees. This provides good replay value, as there's pretty much nothing ingame that you need to exactly repeat on followup playthroughs.

    After reaching a certain point, though, your company begins to turn a profit whether you are actively working or not. This gives you a chance to focus more on building your character's stats through the fun (although slightly grindy) objectives system. (The mod lets you add/remove possible objectives, which helps a lot!). Grinding this system lets you build your character to both be better at business and more capable in bed. There's a gradual increase to the difficulty of objectives too, which helps stretch the game out. The VN elements of the game also change things over time, which keeps things fresh as you build your business.

    Of course, there's the actual interaction with NPCs. There are several "special" NPCs, specifically returning characters from the first game as well as the MC's aunt/cousin. These special NPCs have special events/subplots that can happen with them, all other NPCs ingame are randomly generated. Some people dislike this random generation, but to me it's one of the best things about the game. Generated NPCs have a random body/hair/family/personality/age/skills/likes/dislikes/fetishes, which provides enough individuality to each character that they can feel very unique with a little bit of imagination. For example, there's a couple random NPCs from my most recent playthrough who were memorable enough that I can remember their names/faces- not something I can say even about "non-random" characters in many other games.

    All NPC's, special or not, have three main interaction options "Talk", "Compliment", and "Flirt", which can change their Love , Obedience, and Sluttiness rating. Sluttiness drops over time, but some of it becomes "Core Sluttiness" which never drops. The player can use the serums made by their business to increase "Influence", which makes a greater percentage of Sluttiness remain as Core Sluttiness instead of dropping off. The ability to use the serums you sell for profit in gameplay (and there are literally 30+ different serum effects you can try out) once again creates an interesting balance between getting profit and getting laid. The game goes deep enough to let you have multiple production lines at once, which assign a percentage of your production capability to different serums, which is also really cool. Eventually, your main way of boosting Love/Sluttiness/Obedience is through the game's great sex system. It accounts for your partner's willingness and capability to take part in different acts (which is impacted by love, sluttiness, obedience and what they're wearing), and there's even different dialog/effects if your partner takes part out of desire (love/sluttiness) or only because they're obedient to you. The outcomes of every one of the myriad sex acts the player can perform is also impacted by their partner's fetishes, and the different actions usually offer a second choice which can pander to certain fetishes and boost your partner's arousal more. There are only 2-3 descriptions per sex act, so the text can get a little repetitive, but things will stay fresh if you try everything the game has to offer (there are 5-6 positions for just vaginal sex, for example, which different NPCs will like more or less). Ultimately, this game is closer to the complex sex systems seen in text-based games (Lilith's Throne/Eratohou) than I've ever seen in any game which provides renders (this is 100% a good thing).

    Overall, the reason I like this game is the incredible depth and replay value it offers. I've probably spent 100 hours playing this game, and I'll happily put in another 100 as Vren continues to update it. It's also complex enough that I've hardly touched on many of the ingame systems in the last thousand words. However, there's a reason this is a 4 star review rather than the full 5, which is the numerous rough edges this game still has. I will list below what I consider to be the biggest weaknesses of the game; that being said, please understand that this game is seriously awesome, and worth giving a try.

    > Outfit system is bloated/confusing/not worth using
    > UI is not exactly pretty, gets the job done but can be a little hard on the eyes.
    > Tends to bug out if playing "vanilla"
    > Occasional contradictions between mod and non-mod text
    > Learning curve is a little steep
    > Renders can look a little ugly sometimes, I'm not a fan of renders in general

    Little by little, this project has finally become one of the "must have" Ren'Py titles.

    Game design is great and, looking back to earlier versions, I'd say it's been an outstanding work.

    In addition of all this, modders definitively managed to improve game experience even more...

    ...VRen, you've made it. Again. (y)

    Last time i played that game, it was horrifying ugly.

    simple BSOD background colored with shittiest simple all text selection and floating pics of girls that where all looking the same with different skin color from pure white to coal black with fat body and ugly outfits (all the same face and else).

    time for another try in new late version...

    chars changed alots, Ui changed alots and background are actual backgrounds.

    nontheless, the game is full of errors, random crash and an totally absurd amount of typos that make the whole story completly impossible to understand....

    as exempl :

    1 year ago, you started work to become engineer chemical thing...
    then you went into a campus during summer to work and enhance your knowledge about that...
    then... 4 months ago, you graduated to engineer chemical thing.

    the fuck is that even mean ? it make non sense.

    and the game is FULL of similar non sense.

    in addition to that, the classic grind with many stats and skills and stuff that sometime doesn't even make sense either.



    thanks god there is a mod tht actually fix all theses typos and non sense sentences.

    without mod, that game is painfull to play as it melt the brain very fast.

    like , your mother presenting herself with breakfast... or answering you that they will love you when you say her that you didn't realise how hungry you were... -_-"
    or simply why is MC is going to work by himself on bus and foot when his own mother purposed to drive him there ?
    dont ask me... it's that random all along.


    soo yeah, it progressed for sure. But still lots of work to be done.

    Reviewing v0.29.1

    Kudos to the developer for this really ambitious project. I have been following this since the early days [after the smash hit Lab Rats 1, which is an awesome game] and they have come under a lot of scrutiny for pursuing this course for the sequel.

    I think the issue was that the player could not really visualize what the artist was trying to create. But with each new update it gets clearer and clearer.

    I have played this game with the bugfixes and cheat mod + patches applied. The game is definitely not something you can power through in one sitting like a traditional VN. Therefore I would recommend you take it slow and try to create your own narrative within the game.

    The game involves a decent system of procedural generation for employees etc. and player agency comes through creating outfits and wild serum trait combos for dosing. Top marks for this level of customization, however it could use with a better explanation.

    As with most games where the players should ideally create their own fun, this isn't going to be everyone's cup of tea. The game has added quite a few unique characters, and that should continue. Generic NPCs will always feel generic to a certain extent.

    Perhaps the game could benefit from a more permanent sort of achievement system, say for maxing out employees in your office, completely increasing their core sluttiness to max, etc. This could act as something that the player can work towards.

    All in all it is a great project and worth a try. But please take it slow and set your own goals, eg. corrupting your family, corrupting your office etc.

    The best way to describe this game as of v30.2 is Feature Bloat.
    The TLDR review of this goes like this

    Pros:
    Flavor Text aka the dialogue really enhances each scene and is by far the saving grace of the game.
    Customization: The game allows for a variety of changes to the women you can find from breast size to clothing if you enjoy that you'll like it here.
    Sex scenes: If you enjoy multiple sex positions and don't mind grinding to see them with good writing then you will enjoy this.


    Cons:
    Not designed for a quick fap:
    If you're planning on using this game for fapping you'll have to wait a few hours before anyone is even close to fucking you.

    Design: I mean just look at it from the previous game everyone looks awful. Also the UI takes so much of the screen and is clunky and clear just blue diamonds with no option to hide it. Also everyone random person that isn't considered a "main" character look exactly like the sister or Samantha hope you enjoy blondes.
    Characteristics: Everyone you meet acts the same if you've fucked and corrupted someone you've just beat the game the only thing setting people apart are their names.
    Animation: If you consider stretching an image up and down or left and right animation then you should be happy because all that's you're getting.
    Corruption/Serum: Serum making is poorly explained and corruption is something that takes forever to do on a single person let alone an infinite amount of women that it just isn't fun. It's so under developed that i consider the game unplayable unless mods or console commands are active.


    Overall the game just tries to do way to much and ends up just feeling shallow at this point it's only playable with either mods or console commands to bypass it's poorly designed corruption system but by the time you've fucked the same looking woman more than once there's nothing to keep you from wanting to come back. The Game needs to invest in more Flavor Text and start giving main characters a personality in order to invest any time in it.

    Fetishes:
    Pregnancy:
    Pregnancy is lacking as of now. it's your standard corrupt someone till they stop taking birth control and fuck them till they get pregnant. I got the mom and random women knocked up by around day 20 and it wasn't until day 90+ when their models had a noticeable baby bump. No dialogue is different just a static bigger belly. It needs works to say the least. I understand it supposed to be realistic but waiting months for a bigger belly BLOWS.

    Dress-up: You can spend time making dresses for anyone wear and to its credit you can customize color to make Day wear and Lingerie. But its downside is that unless you make a dress the only thing they wear you'll maybe see your creation once and no one ever comments on clothes. So if you give someone nothing but a slave collar they can be at the mall and no one not even the person seems to care.

    Sandbox/Infinite Woman: i know people like it when game are sandboxes but in this game sandbox just means location with a different background. You can't do anything like buy gifts or interact at shops. All the different location are is just a list of women you can fuck at the current place. Speaking of the women the variety of them is poor. They tend to either Blondes with big breast with a model figure or a Brunette with smaller tits and a curvy body. They tend to blend into one another and it makes anyone who isn't a "main" character boring and not worth corrupting.

    Corruption: It's forgettable really every acts innocent as if they've never kissed someone else and once they're maxed out all they really do is comment on how much they're a slut. They don't change their clothes or have sex options that are real slutty only available once they're maxed. Really all it does is allow you to fuck them normally. There's no option like pimping them out or making them work at the strip club. You might get lucky and while you're fucking them they'll remind you that they're slutty now.





    For a more detailed review:
    As a fan of Lab rats i was thrilled to see #2 but it's left me disappointed with how it turned out. It wants to add and do so many things but ends up making each feature shallow and boring. Like the last game it's main goal is to make serums to slowly corrupt women. What was once 3 different serums with simple to understand effects is now a D.I.Y. serum maker. The idea sounds great in theory in which you can mix and match different serums like one with corruption as well as a love boost. But the game does nothing to help you understand how anything works. The tutorial doesn't even help make a serum along side. For the longest time all i was doing was researching the same corruption serum without making one. It really does feel like you've been given the keys to a company but not knowing how to do anything which makes the first few hours of the game confusing and boring.
    But i feel the biggest let down is how the characters act from what was seen previously. Before you had 5 girls to interact with and they all had a personality or trait to make them unique. For example you had Alexia she was your best friend with big tits who clearly wants to fuck you and while you're corrupting her she wants to fuck you anywhere and anytime she can whether on a bus or at the mall. Now her main trait is that she has a bf. Nora and Samantha were your co-workers who once corrupted would have secret fuck sessions at night. Now they're differences is that one works for you and the other works somewhere else. I mean i'm not expecting deep back stories for anyone but without anything making the woman different from one another there's no point in exploring the sandbox here since everyone will say and do everything the person you fucked a few minutes ago.
    Also sex becomes so tedious because of the dress-up mechanic since every girl has outfits they wear if you plan on fucking anyone you have to first get them turned on then you have to strip them down piece by fucking piece every single time. So if you planned on fucking them in the ass Sorry Buddy you can't panties are still on you can't just have some text say you took them off during the moment nope you gotta go to a specific screen and see an animation telling you they're off. It makes sex tedious not fun.
    Like I've said before the game needs to focus on flavor text and personalities if it wants to be good. I hope it gets better the last game proves that the concept of corrupting women with serums can be a great time but as it isn't worth a download.

    I LOVE the concept!!
    Great story, game mechanics.

    The only issue is that ...the graphics are disguting and definitly are not at the level for this genra of games.

    So I'll wait and hope for a Lab Rats 3 where the graphics are appealing enough and there is actual sex scenes like ICSTOR, but LB2 is doomed.

    Hello1

    It took about 30 versions and some mods, but Lab Rats 2 is slowly becoming one of the greatest XXX managers out there.

    Pros:

    Solid system that makes the game enjoyable even without the XXX action
    Easy to mod and healthy modding community
    Lots of possibilities; you can do pretty much anything with anyone if you take the time
    Clothing system is impressive and works quite well
    Many serums to create to generate a wide variety of effects

    Neutral

    Somewhat of a clickfest sometimes
    Randomly created characters are often bland
    It needs more scripted events and more content to give a personality to at least some of the characters.
    More events with the family would be great
    More unique designs for the family would be great

    Cons

    Animations are clunky and weird
    The models need a lot of love; very few combinations are looking good.

    update 3/8/2022
    This game has seen large improvements since the last time I updated the
    review.
    Vren did a lot of work on the base code of the game and resolved a great deal of bugs.
    That said he occasionally introduces new one's
    I used to mod the game till very recent.

    I think given time Vren will come to fix most things.
    You can see a definite improvement in his coding ability over time.
    That's visible in how he has changed his code over updates.

    /***********************************/
    older:
    Honestly this game has me torn several directions.
    I'll break this down into art and game play and mechanics and so on.

    Rewriting this review as of 9/10/2020
    I took away a star just to be up front.
    As far as concept for the game that's great no issues there.
    As to the art work. I have no real issue with the rendering quality or anything on that line. The problem has to do with the excessive and improper & poor use of randomness. In fact the issue doesn't just effect appearance of female characters but the very make up of the character in skills and other areas and it is a drastic negative to the game in the manor in which it is done.

    First, off running a real company I don't look at random people to select someone for a job. I run ads looking for people who have the job skills that I want to start with. After they those that don't meet the qualifications need are removed then I conduct interviews.

    But lets ignore that fact of reality and look at the real issue.
    The randomness is so bad and poorly controlled in this game not thought is given to bother matching a person's skills with stats and likes and dislikes.

    Take for example he made your success with HR based on Charisma HR Skill and Intelligence. He did similar for other jobs as well. However when it came to generating a character he didn't spend one second bothering to tie those together at all. The developer didn't bother making the job skills anyways related to your stats. They also didn't bother to consider tying general likes such as job skills and so on. So what you end up with when you go to hire someone is a 99.9% of the candidates being utter shit not worth wasting a minute to hire them. Those of us who could in the past modded the game and or save at the question of being willing to pay the $50 and just reloaded 10 million damn times to find someone worth a crap.

    Female appearance.
    There are at least two ways the female body type is selected there is a pure random selection and pre-generated table type as well. Both are pure shit. Neither one is anyways close to real life. Fuck people the US are over weight compared to Europe but this shit out does that by fucking miles.
    If you are relying on the stock game hoping to hire an attractive female or two your odds are about 1 in 100 make that 500 if you want her to have the skills to do the job you are looking for as well. Your best option is edit the file random_list.rpy. Weight the female body list and then edit the fuck out of the pre generated list. While you are at it several characters in game are entirely pre-generated you probably want to edit half of those as well. I tend to think the developer likes his women thick.

    Then if that isn't enough the developer at some point created pre generated bullshit personalities he throws into the random characters that have no real logic to them and don't in the least bit take into account anything of value to create the personality. I found this out because I went through and modded the game to ensure the characters would come out more sensible and I tied stats skills and even general likes and so on together. However, Kept getting weird issues were someone who was great at production hated it consistently. It turns out the developer had created this stupid personality garbage was the fault when I got done tracking it down.

    In places he should put some effort in and fix stuff he doesn't and in areas and ways he shouldn't do stuff he does.

    It's a shame this game has massive potential. Hell if he fixed these issues then mods could focus a lot more on other areas. As it is right now I can't see continuing to mod the game just for my own use. If I was doing one for the community it would be easier at this point to just branch the game away from his that way I could getting the hell away from his code.

    I'm being nice giving two stars.
    The first one is for concept.
    The second is for the game has potential if he stops doing stupid shit and fixes the issues at hand I discussed here.
    Art: Plus 1 for the models being fairly good minus 1 for the randomness issue.
    Play-ability: The game in general works with few bugs compared to other games of such complexity however it looses the star again because of the crap work needed to be put into it because of the stupid way he handles randomness..

    It's just way to crash happy.
    Many of the models aren't appealing.
    You have to use a new save each version.
    No way to keep characters you do like.
    File size grows seems to grow ever click you make.
    The game gets slower and slower to longer you play a save.
    I like the concept but its just a no go on execution.

    Pravitas

    If mindless fapping is what you are looking for, this is the game for you. This game has a LOT of potential, but just not from the dev himself, but by the community.

    Imagine HHS+, but instead of a High School setting it's more of a town setting in which you are disseminating serum to the residents and corrupting them that way (Chemical Route in HHS+).

    While the base lacks quite a bit, there are mods that are slowly adding random events and mechanics to the base game, improving tremendously on it.

    The downside to this is that the more complex the Mod becomes, the less portable it is, as the modding community adds more and more, you can expect higher and higher delays of integration of the mods into the "core" game. It will eventually lead to the mods just integrating during the big updates.

    None the less, this should give you a nice few hours of gameplay, more if you enjoy the whole micromanagement system.

    As such, I'm giving this project 5 stars, solely on the fact that the modding community is active and adding life to the game.

    Quality work leading to immersive experience:
    • supported by good language,
    • not overly grinding gameplay
    • Customizable aspects.
    Def worth it replaying each new version from beginning :100:

    I've seen quite a few low ratings here; which doesn't make much sense as I can't think many, if any, other games that are better for what this story experience is aimed at.

    To put it bluntly, Lab rats 2 is shallow and boring. Not to say that the game doesn't have some some cool features, because it certainly does. The outfit system is neat. The procedurally generated population is kind of cool. The personality templates is a nice touch. The gameplay loop of researching, designing, creating, and selling serums is solid. What Lab rats 2 lacks is something that it's predecessor has in spades; charm.

    In lab rats 1, it was fun to slowly corrupt each established character. It was fun to see how each character's personality changed. It was fun to discover new events. It was fun to revisit old events to see if anything changed. This type of content is completely absent from lab rats 2. The old characters did get ported over, but in name only. They are just kind of there with very little content, and that tiny amount is bland and boring. Instead, the majority of time is spent with random procedurally "characters" that all have the same sex options and spit out the same dialogue by personality-type.

    Onto the models. Not much to say. Uncanny valley. In lab rats 1 the paired models and backgrounds worked. That presentation style does not work with the "updated" Lab rats 2 models very well.

    Lab rats 2 is a nifty tech-demo of neat systems, but not much else and is a disappointment when compared to it's predecessor.

    The basic premise of the game is very nice. You own a lab and your goal is to manage your business and produce serums that can remove inhibitions from women around you and make them do things or accept things that are otherwise totally unacceptable from a social point of view. Like creating a corporate mandatory nudity policy or banging your female employees on a whim thus cucking their husbands or significant others or making a slut house of your family and many other things.

    The gameplay is also interesting and the pacing is right, there is some grind, but you can still do a lot of interesting things quite early into the game, you just can't go on a full power trip.

    However there are two main issues with the game, The first being models which are to put it mildly not very pretty. While their bodies are usually hot and offer nice variety, their faces are like 2/10 average. And those who are passable with neutral emotions stop being passable after you see them smile, horny or anything like that. Daz models are known to be difficult to make expressions right, but this game takes ugliness of standard expression morphs to another level.

    The game is also very slow, especially if you have animations turned on. The memory management is abysmal, even the top modern PCs can have problems being responsive enough for a comfortable play. And out of memory errors are quite common.

    Overall the game could be very interesting and very fappable if only these two main issues could be fixed.

    Warning to players: This is an actual game with mechanics you'll have to learn. You'll get nowhere clicking next->next->next.
    Pros:
    - There is a huge variety of characters and the clothing system provides lots of customization
    - Game makes you work for it. There is reasonable grind but the dialog and mechanics like business policies make up for it
    - The potential. The dev is reputable and knows how to manage complexity. Can't wait to see the content that gets added in the future
    Cons:
    - Corruption mechanics are complex to understand. Could do with some simplification.
    - The initial days are empty and hard. The goal system nudges you in the right direction, but being thrown into a large open world without a little hand-holding makes it confusing.
    - Bugs(?). Sometimes the characters behave plain stupid - refuse to remove shoes even if they are naked above.
    - Stamina per action sucks. Limits most possibilities unless you have good stats

    Overall a very ambitious sandbox game with slow corruption and multiple story-lines

    Enjoyable to watch this grow.

    I really like the art. Some of the faces are Uncanny Valley postergirls, but the tits are lovely. I could do without the animation-through-deformation thing though: I feel like it's just needless memory overhead with little gain.

    Plot's good, writing fluency is fine. Scenarios can come off a bit contrived but it's porn so that's to be expected.

    Really hoping for pregnancy content. Would also like more emphasis on corruption. I'm a terrible awful no-good person and would like a progression struggle with leading Alexis astray too. Also potions that could directly or indirectly modify sex preferences would be super.

    I'll be honest: I cheat the everloving hell out of this game with the dev console. The grind is too samey otherwise. More in-office events would help that a bit. I like slow pacing in corruption, but don't care for it in the day-to-day money farming to get there.

    TLDR: I enjoy this, and hope for more.

    I've been watching this one for a while, because I was such a fan of the first one. I almost wanted to dismiss this version based on the early builds, but I am glad I came back to it.

    This has become a highly ambitious, gratifying game to play. It gives you not only a household and a business to corrupt and seduce, but an entire town. The system for generating people, outfits, and bodies was a mind-bogglingly huge undertaking, which Vren has pulled off to great effect, and looking through some of the code, this system can be used to create some great mods.

    Definitely worth the download!

    EDITED 13/Aug/2020 Version 0.31.1
    SECOND EDIT 12/Oct/2020 Version 0.33.3
    THIRD EDIT 18/Sep/2021 Version 0.44.1
    The Good:
    • This game is grindy and can be confusing, it has a progression system with girls (for me this is good), it doesn't have quick H-stuff at the beginning, you need to build up relationship and also build up corruption in other words not good for a quick fap.
    • The game has character progression the MC starts "weak", and by completing "quests" you can improve skills.
    • There is plenty of customization for the girls on the game. You can even customize the likes and dislikes later on the game.
    • The game has some kinks like, cheating, pregnancy, but these aditions need more work.
    The Bad:
    • The energy system can be confusing, adding the clarity system on top made the game even more confusing and grindy.
    • The H-scenes are ok, but there is no MC body, avatar or face.
    • The MC can't drink any of the serums he/his company makes.
    • If you don't know what you are doing the game can be very grindy and annoying.
    • The management can be very confusing at the begining, but once you understand what you have to do it becomes easy.
    • The RNG in this game is a nightmare. The RNG affects hiring, also there are random events while working or when you go to sleep/wake up.
    • Once you complete a quest, the next quest you receive is random.
    • The girls that get import from the old game (mother, sister, childhood friend, old colleage, old boss) have random preferences (likes, dislikes, etc).
    Recomendations for the Dev:
    • I wish the dev gives ALL the starting girls (mom, sister, old colleage, old boss, cousin, aunt) STATIC preferences (just like the Dev did with Steph)
    • The RNG is really bad, I wish the dev gives the player more control over some events, or grants the player more choices, for example giving the player the ability to choose between 2 quests when you finish or reroll a quest.
    • The energy system is kinda annoying/confusing for new players, I wish the dev makes the system more simple, also the clarity system is weird, it adds some powerups but also limits gameplay.
    The Game is currenty a 4/10, the game is unfinished currently, but once finished it can climb up to a 7.5/10, there is a lot of potential in this game I really hope the dev does not give up and tries his/her best to finish the game and fixes some issues.

    Best Game ever for business fantasy. The concept used is amazing, randomly generated girls with unique personalities. Meet or Hire them, Drug them and do whatever you want. Other games are fun to play only a couple of times but , This is the ony game I keep playing again and again and again, never enough. The only problem is that it takes a lot of time to research late game and it feels grindy. Please enable some cheats to access higher research directly please please please.

    oral into a invisible man? probably will be better with men interactions scenes too.
    I think its too text on screen. Maybe divide into screens, like a computer in office.
    But i really like the game. I would love to see more
