Ren'Py - No Mercy [v0.91] [ZeratGames]

(v0.20) This is looking to be a great addition to the darker kink VNs.

Pros: An engaging story with a fairly plausible plot line. Not to mention, as others already have, some great models being used without being too over the top. At least for the main LI, the stepmom. Renders are quite well done (although I'm not real clear on why the foggy appearance in one of the later scenes). Music is decent. No sound effects but that's always been a non-issue for me personally as I typically find most sound effects annoying anyways. Lastly. Plenty of choices that do have an effect on the story along with the option to pass on any undesirable material.

Cons: I left choices for last on the pros because for this VN, the choices can actually be a con too. I like choices that direct the story one way or another but this dev uses the choices as gate keys rather than simple story pathing. And here, far too much material seems locked behind choices that are very unclear. Only way you'd reach a lot of said material is through either crazy dumb luck, a LOT of replaying, digging into the code, or the use of an external walkthrough. For me, that's not really ideal. Moving beyond the choice system, other cons would be the all too common oversized dick of the MP and the perhaps too short "chapters". Those latter two I recognize as being simply personal taste though.

So the pros definitely are outweighing the cons for me here. That said, I'll definitely be looking forward to future releases/chapters of this one!

Excellent game. Nice models and good scenes. I always praise creators who put evil choices without leading to game over or to bad endings plus the milf/taboo themes are awesome. I hope this VN continues and inspire more games like this.

The game is really hot and the female models are really good. Enjoyed all the scenes also. Good job dev, looking forward to seeing more.

Would be nice to see what achievements we missed in a menu or something with hints on how to get them if possible.

I find the game's theme intriguing and promising, even at this early stage. If the story continues to evolve and more female characters are drawn to the main character, it could make for a compelling narrative. However, it's important to steer clear of political correctness, as it may not align with the tone of an erotic game. Also keep up the good work!. Nova

Well, this game really made me feel anxious that it's too short for now.
First of all, I loved the premise of the story.
MC is also a bad boy but also intelligent and capable of empathy.
The game starts in force, with a blowjob performed by the mother of a colleague of the main character, whom he had never seen until that moment. What a delight...!!
Then he takes care of the stepmother…
Surprise! The milf has neither monstrous breasts nor a monstrous african ass, on the contrary, normal, natural shapes. And the choice of the face of the stepmother is perfect.
The game has a lot of potential, I hope the developer finds the optimal balance between a believable story and the necessary dosage of porn scenes.
It's one of the games I put on my "to watch" list.
...4 stars? Well, it's not finished yet

....
coming back after seeing the latest update, 0.6.6.
5 stars, NO DOUBT, for the sex scene withpenetration with mommy Nicole.
Extremely rarely have I seen something so realistic and well done in porn games.
You're the best, ZERAT.

I like the theme, it seems interesting despite being very initial, if more things develop in the story, perhaps with more women being persuaded by the MC, it could become a good story. The only trap that should be avoided is, avoid being politically correct, it does not suit erotic games.

Just played 0.11 version
The story has believable characters (for a fantasy) and moves at a good pace (not too slow or too fast)
Unlike most stories, the son here is a true selfish bastard with no empathy who only seeks to subjugate his mother without a hint of guilt (I only remember Raptus having a character like that, but even more extreme). And the mother really tries to resist and does not enjoy the situation at all (at least for now. I don't know which direction the author will take it. If the mother ends up enjoying being her son's sexual slave or if she will always be a victim, coerced and dominated against her will).
For those who like stories of forced incest with a bastard son who only seeks to dominate his mother and turn her into his obedient bitch and a mother who really tries to resist, I recommend it.
The images are hot and the story advances at a good pace, believable for a fantasy (although reality always surpasses fiction and similar things have surely happened. Psychopaths have also been teenagers) and I am eager to see where it progresses.
Be aware it has only 2 chapters yet, so don't complain if you feel it short.

Game's premise is very interesting and the game shows a lot of promise. Hope the dev keeps developing this one. Lots of hot scenarios possible this premise. The models used are great. The game looks like it will have branching paths for hard blackmail/soft blackmail/ coercion routes

As of version 0.05 I can only give this two stars and that's because I like the models. This seems like another dev that can't or won't follow through with what the game advertises. When you name your game No Mercy and then have the MC not be able to force the mom or even not fight back at all, it's stupid. You even have the option to force and then nothing happens. What happened to no mercy?
