Unity - Completed - News Desk [v1.0] [Pyorgara]

This game shows you do not need to have amazing art to have a game that is both fun and sexy. Very fun if you like corruption. I highly recommend everyone to check it out.

The only downside is that the content is a bit extreme towards the end. There should be more choices to be made.

Overall quite good and balanced game.
It is a story of corrupting and degrading a strong mature woman into a super slut. You do it slowly and other people are also included in taking advantage on her in advanced stages

The basic features are
- Mostly text based with only a few images even if more are added with updates
- There is a lot of strategy included
- If you do not enjoy the strategical concept then it is quite grindy otherwise it is ok
- The text isn't too much and reduced down to necessary descriptions and dialogs which I found very good as I wasn't lost in pages after pages of useless text

With a bit of refinement at the strategical concept and the addition of many more pictures it would defenetely take 5 stars

PS: if you do not play well and mainly if you increase your starting influence (you shouldn't through out the entire game) you can make the game extremely grindy which is a reason of many bad reviews. If was the developer I would completely remove the possibility to increase the influence

Based on V0.18
Didn't expect much and was very positively surprised by this game to the point I finished it. As long as you understand that blackmail is your main resource and are ok with taking a beating at first you should enjoy this as we all know revenge is a dish best served cold. Especially in corruption games which are by far my fav
Pros:
- Writing. really good, i usually tend to skip most of it in pron games after a few hours. But not in this one as it does wonders at supporting the corruption story without drowning it in useless sentences.
- Art may not be the best out there but does it's job. Retro akabur is the way i'd describe it.
- gameplay. As said in previous comments, I like the way even the card reflect the corruption level. IMO this is not a grind fest as every battle is different and there is a good balance between the events opportunities and the battles. Quick save still helps but didn't have to cheat nor did I feel like it was needed
- kink is perfect in my opinion. Nothing mild but nothing too extreme either

Cons:
- Some of her cards (interns, wallet) need a rework as once she's been tamed it doesn't make sens that she would start fighting back. breaks the immersion.
- not completed yet
- No replay value

Nice to have:
- It would be nice to have more live tv events, like the sex toy and cam depicted in the main screen. More dept in the current ones would also be nice.
- It would also be nice if corruption events would not end the day if enough energy and blackmail is left
- Yanet Garcia as a meteo girl https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=29rDb3UJMVk

With a few tweaks this could well be a 5 star once all the art and cards have been added. Keep up the good work devs

Hook:

Corrupt a hot MILF and her daughter in this intriguing but majorly flawed card game / corruption sim.



Best:

+ The Writing is great (if you like corruption, male dom, humiliation, and BDSM).

+ The Art is good and has a decent variety.



Meh:

+- The card game itself isn’t too bad. But it needs A LOT more balance refinement. Even after grinding and upgrading your cards, you can still only barely win a match with cheats. And there is exactly only 1 deck that is a winning comp. No room for experimentation or alternative winning deck comps. If you like porn-card games, play TF Card Battle.



Worst:

- - - I cannot possibly understate how fucking grindy this game is. I’ve played well over 500 hours of various porn games, and this game takes the cake. I beat the game in about ~ten hours or so. WITH CHEATS. I have no idea how any human is supposed to sit down and grind away as the dev intended. What in the world was the dev thinking?

- No sound whatsoever.

- The UI is ugly.

- [Opinion]: Some of the male dom scenes approach rape, torture, and satanism. I’ve payed other games with these themes with no problem. It feels extra icky here because the people being abused are well-developed characters that feel like real humans. So, kudos to the writing for making good characters. But it makes me feel bad when I ‘get to’ completely ruin their lives.



Score: 6.7 / 10

Ver: 0.18

Date: 4.10.20

I thought this was another trash. But omg this is a super amazing game, i love everything about this game. I don't know why other people don't like it. This is a real gem. I love how we can tame a strong women and make her our sub. I highly recommend this game. Story is so perfect and i really really love the gameplay. This is a must play game.

The game is great it resembles a lot of a TCG (Trading Card Game) like Yugioh. This game is very grindy not suited for people that just want instant H-stuff.
The game is very RNG heavy:
During the "duels" the cards you draw are random. and also the cards your oponents draw are random.
While exploring the city there are some events that are locked to a certain region, the exploring events are also RNG Heavy, there is even a gamble event shared in 2 regions.

There is no limit for the ammount of cards you can play during a turn so you can OTK (one turn kill) your oponent
There is also no limit for the actions you can perform while exploring the city as long as you have energy you can explore the city, this allows you to farm so much and snowball the game hard.

The story of the game is not the best but is kinda funny (perhaps add a bit of background to the MC), also the H-events are good, perhaps add some animations and not just pictures.
I give this game a solid 7/10 in its current state and can climb easily into a 9/10 once finished.

This game is not bad. I actually found it pretty entertaining to play through, and at least it's an original concept too. The card game makes sense to play. The RNG is a little tough but manageable.

My main gripe is that it needs A LOT more art than what it currently has. When it has double the art or so, I'd really consider this a strong game, but for the time being, the writing is not enough for me to consider this better than average.

This game is excellent.

Its main allure is the gradual downfall of your co-host as the main character slowly gains full control over her sexual life and corrupts her into a mindless fuckbunny.

The most genious thing about this game though, is that it is one of the only games in which the gameplay actually joins hands with the porn and the story. For most other porn games, the gameplay consists of decision trees or non-related puzzles.

In News Desk, the main gameplay consists of a cardgame you play each day. You play against your co-host, who starts off with an incredibly overpowered deck against which you have no chance of winning. At the end of each bout of cards, one of the stats is turned into another meta-game stat called honor. Whoever reaches 1000 honor wins the game as a whole, not just the card game, and gets to keep their job as anchor at the news station.

The ingenious twist here though, is that the remaining gameplay besides collecting cards, upgrading cards or training different stats, consists of gathering enough of the blackmail stat after each card bout to trigger a scripted scene once a day.

In these scenes, the MC uses his blackmail to his advantage to corrupt his co-host. This is significant because the cards she uses in the card-game which represents their battle to keep their job at the news station, are cards like "spotless reputation", "good connections" and "brilliant daughter". Through your corruption in these scenes, you can start to undermine all of those categories.

Once you've gone through enough scenes in one category or "card", her card downgrades and becomes worse. This spirals until the point her cards actually help you win rather than her. (the card art also becomes lewder and lewder which is a nice touch)

This feels amazingly satisfying if you're even a little bit interested in powerplay, bdsm, domination or similar things.

In this way, the porn and the story aren't the only arousing things about the game, but the gameplay as well. Far more creators should approach erotic games in the same manner, imo.

The problems of course are the same as they always are with porn games. The game takes far too long.

There's about two pages of fifty each of these events, nearing a 100, not to count future events that could possibly be added. You only get to play one of these events each day. You see where this is going.

In the beginning you naturally get stomped. For probably half the game you continue to get stomped, and the AI continues racking up honor points, acting as a ticking clock. This is actually fine, since you don't really care about the honor at that point, what you want is to get enough blackmail to trigger the scenes each day.

But maybe you haven't caught onto that, and you continue trying to win the card game each day, which is impossible. But lets say you do catch on, and you do go for blackmail each day.

You still have to watch yourself get stomped 20-30 times in a row. And you have to play the card game a 100+ times to complete the game.

The card game is not complex enough to facilitate this many replays. The gameplay is repetitive, the options too limited, the cards too few and the opponent the same each time bar the slight changes as you progress the scenes.

This makes the card game tiring, and feel like busywork. It feels like the game is intentionally keeping the next scene from you. Rather than act as amazing porn gameplay of its first kind.

The drearyness is so bad that the developer could probably allow you to complete three of these scenes each day, effectively trippling the speed of your progress, and the card game would STILL feel tiresome and repetitive in the end.

That does not mean the game isn't worth playing and that there isn't a lot of entertainment to be had here. Simply go to your house, go to the cheat console, and type in the cheat found in the changelog here on the forumpost. Start cheating once the grind sets in, and start cheating early. Turn on skipping the cardgame. Give yourself some blackmail, complete one scene each day. The game is amazing then. Then once you've made some progress, turn the card game back on and play one match. Rince repeat.

The UI is not good. Some of the art is missing. The writing is excellent. Plenty of fetishes, not too vanilla. The interplay between gameplay, porn and writing is unparalleled. The grind is unbearable, luckily, there's cheats.

I wish the developer(s) all the best and look forward to many amazing updates. Thank you for the game!

nice work... hard to grind, but awesome backgournd, the creator has made other works, all of them moving in grind the levels and some luck, the point is the way he made the fall of the enemy, impressive.

UPDATE: I retried it and was wondering why I hated this game.
I now remember clearly. The main thing is this, the AI has infinite resources, namely energy. Even IF you start to improve your stats it actually just ends up making it worse. Since the more influence you get the longer she can play cards. Its insane. Unless you cheese the game by stacking stuff that destroys her influence (HP) there is no way to win since attrition is purely one sided. Fuck this game. Mainly cause it has everything I hate about RTS games and their AI stacked on top of a time limit (glory system).

RNG grindfest timesink, no thanks.
Like the concept and execution, but the balance is terrible.

Got max energy.
150 influence.
11...glory, after what? 2+ hours of gameplay? No sex scenes either.

Oh and the computer? 500 fucking glory.

Glory BTW are "win points" 1000 and you win the game, or if the computer gets 1000 you lose.

This is one of those games where you need certain amount of grind and "tools" to beat the unfair computer.
You think you are improving by grinding up your energy and influence. But you realize like I did, and maybe an hour later.
"This is just a war of attrition, and the computer has infinite energy...this is stupid".

Now I am sure if you had the right cards upgraded properly, you could win ez pz. Here's the thing. Card acquisition is pure RNG. Fuck, that. Not to mention you are on a ticking time clock, unless there is a way to diminish computer glory (which if there isn't it sure as shit isn't apparent).

So even after sinking time and grinding, unless you RNG your ass some cards that win the influence battle, you are fucked.

So ya, overall its not terrible, just as it currently is, not touching it.

The best writing and scenes anywhere.
Good art as well. Not too grindy, but you do have to finish the first half to get to the interesting stuff. There's a build-up which makes the rest of it much better.

Tough game to review, the art is top notch unique I'll say that, going with 3 stars for now. Could see it getting better and better though.
Right now, it suffers from 2 flaws I just can't ignore.

The game play, the card game, isn't fun. Not only is it not fun but it's designed so losing over and over is a part of it. Bold design choice I don't think works here. It seemed just grind with little reward for the effort. Thankfully the cheat code offers a way around that but anytime I think of a cheat as necessary in a game I've got to dock a star.

Many of the rewards you get for playing it don't have unique art yet. That might/will come with time hopefully but reviewing it now, it's an issue that the work involved often leads to short text based rewards.

Will keep an eye on it though and, with the code which you enter in your house, the game is playable now and I'd say yeah give it a quick try it's not bad.

Pretty weird game, actually. Not weird as in bad, but... weird. It has promise, though.

There's two aspects to the game, the card bit and the "roam" part. The card game is just a card game where you try and manage resources or whatever. The "roam" part isn't really roaming, but it allows you to spend the resources you gained in the card game. Maybe you'll blackmail your co-host into doing stuff, maybe you'll invest your resources so you can get more.

Roaming isn't very well explained so there's a lot of trial and error and clicking about at random finding things, but once you've kinda got it going it's pretty good. Though no animations the pictures are decent. The UI is pretty bare bones.

4. Don't know whats its called but sticking your fingers in someone's mouth
5. gangbang
6. etc.

The strategy is well developed and balanced. (For those of you complaining I'm guessing you tried to be an alpha straight from the get go. This is the wrong mentality. You are caught OFF GUARD so you MUST play as passively as possible try and end each battle as quickly as possible to prevent her from gaining glory)

The events are dynamic (i.e as you start winning she will start sabotaging you with thugs)

The artwork (what little there is) is very nice enough said

There is a variety of girls for you to conquer


CONS
The interface for the battle portion doesn't tell you how man uses of each ally you have left.

The lack of artwork to reflect the scene often times the sprite don't reflect the character's situation

All the characters seem to be devolving to some level of dumb willing bimbo. Can't I have an intelligent loyal pet that will fight for me tooth and nail?

An extension of the above the story is very linear and there are few things to spice it up once you read most of the scenes.

The grind when trying to end the day quickly towards the end is annoying. Sometimes I just want to let her win so I can continue with my black mail for the day. But what I am forced to do is sit there as she slowly chips at my influence; Only to have her draw her daughter card which gives me influence prolonging a battle that I want to end.

Well put together game that rewards patience and strategy. At first you are on your heels, and do not have a chance in hell of stopping her. It's all about playing defense and building your power.

I'm not big on games about "breaking" women, but the gameplay makes this an excellent challenge. If I find anything lacking it's the way allies work and that you are practically forced to use them as defense against one of your rival's most damaging cards rather than for their special ability until very late in the game. But this is a minor gripe.

If you're tired of yet another VN trying to screw your sister and want a game that's totally different give this one a try.

story: is really good.

gameplay: kinda hard.

draws: very good.

scenes (erotic ones): really hot.

conclussion: this game has a brilliant future just in the story, i find miself amaized
by the two protagonist and their strugle for power, "no blow is too low, no limit is too high"
you can say this game is about corruption, but you are the one who is going down into the abyss.
how far you will go for what you want? how many people is gonna have to fall before you raise again?

this game TOTTALLY deserve your time and money.

edited: because the draws and the erotic scenes worth it.

psdt: cheat engine is your best friend.

Ok, so firstly this game is still rather barebones, and even when it is complete judging his last few games, it won't be massive, I do not count that as a negative, but just know that he doesn't make big games. That being said, I'm still following this because the guy knows how to write a "good" story, and his writing, while incomplete, hasn't depreciated from Soldier's Life. A text heavy game isn't for everyone, but if you like them like I do, then Pyagora's great.

This game has potential. The developer has made good games in the past and hopefully this will be another. The new battle system will be fun. I will check back when it's released or further developed and leave an actual review.

I wish I could give the game 0/5 right now. I know this is not going to be an in-depth review, but please bear with me.

The premise sounded very interesting. I excepted great things out of this. However, as it sits, the game is currently unplayable. The card battle is a farce. Your opponent has an insurmountable advantage against you. The only way to (maybe, because even then I'm not sure) even the playing field is to cheat! There's a cheat code system implemented in the game. But the cheat codes are only available if you are a patron.

I've seen a few cash grab games in this forum, but this has to be the worst kind. The worst dick move. I've expected great things from this developer based on their previous portfolio (sorry if that breaks the rules), but unless they fix this BS, I will no longer play any of their games.
