VN - Ren'Py - Completed - No Mercy [v1.03a] [ZeratGames]

Excellent.
The game is excellent, the cutscenes are straight to the point and visually impressive.
The story is short and a bit bitter at first, but as the game progresses, the character development begins to take shape and things get better. The game also offers enough options between love and domination, which gives it some replayability. I liked the characters, I ended up liking the theme by the end of the 3rd episode or so, and the animations are very well done.
5/5

TL;DR
OK fap material if you're into the rape kink.

Pros:
+ Good H-scenes. Decent camera positioning, good narration, good sound.
+ Good renders and animations.

Neutral:
- 90% of scenes are rape / domination.

Cons:

- A blind playthrough doesn't make sense.

- Story:
Essentially, there's only one canonical route, and if you don't follow it, the whole story falls apart. The canon path is a rapist man-slut MC with a negative relationship with his father. The subplot involving the police and Lopez only makes sense in the bad ending.

- Forced, nonsensical H-scenes with side LIs with whom you've barely interacted.
- Minigames. Yes, you can skip them, but fuck them anyway.
- Easy/Hard mode. The developer baits you with promises of additional content on hard mode, but it's just one short animation.

It starts out really, really strong. Then once it works up some momentum it abruptly wraps up in 2 minutes. If I would have written this review before the latest patch I would have probably given it a 5/5, but as it stands it is kind of a waste of time to play because everything good is leading up to a terrible ending. Once it starts getting great it's over.

This is a relatively short game with a good amount of content. I really love the forced aspect of this game those are really hot.

Most of the female character models are really hot especially the stepmom, and most of the facial expressions/animations are really great too. However I've noticed that some of the animations are a little crude, one of the animation had some slight clipping, besides that they're mostly decent.

This game requires multiple playthroughs in order to unlock all the content, with the way it's designed it can feel a little tedious having to choose specific options in order to make certain scenes possible down the line.

I thoroughly enjoyed the game, the premise and fetish is right up my alley, I highly recommend.

"No Mercy" by Zerat offers a thrilling adult experience with immersive visuals and an engaging story. The gameplay features interactive elements and detailed character designs, though some might find the pacing slow.

I have no clue how this game has received so many 5 star ratings, but I have a suspicion they might be planted.

The game is really bad. It has two game modes - easy and hard, where easy mode tells you exactly what dialogue option to choose and hard mode is essentially impossible mode because you will need to lucky guess the exact dialogue sequence to unlock the next scene. This could have worked if the options in themselves hinted at a specific path, but no - they are a mess of almost identical choices where you even sometimes need to select the same dialogue option 3 times in a row (not even joking) to unlock the next scene.

The faces of the female characters are generally very well done but it makes very little sense that your mom looks to be 19 years old.

Animations are very crude and renders often have characters limbs in weird angles making it look more like a horror game than a porn game.

Add to this the horrible mini games and the fact that there is no NTR in the game.

Don't say I didn't warn you ....

It can say this is the best game I have played in all these years and such a pity that it ended so quickly. I really hope there will be a follow-up plot.
Thanks a lot to the developers for providing such a amazing work. Looking forward to your next product or it's sequel. Indeed, I am too into Necleo to accept any other character.

As a VN, overall the story is entertaining you can shift domination to love route in between chapters, so you can replay the game few times over getting different outcome, although the graphics are still almost similar.

Love the graphics, the game doesn't take long to complete however the side stories are short and lack depth but hey it's a porn game.

Also for me she may not be the prettiest of mom among all these games but ways she was written and portrayed in the game make her one of my favorites MILFs.

Hands down, one of the best games I've ever played. Top notch story, graphics, story-telling, gameplay elements & sets a great precedent for how the games should be made.
Sincerely looking forward to any new games the developer will come out with

This was pretty good for the standard of western vns.
The main Karen model is pretty good, not some balloon boobs monstruosity. The side women aren't bad either but the game could have used a bit of variety instead of going for an all milfs line up.
The story is engaging and the writing is on point. Things range from love to retarded power trip which can end badly for the MC.
The sex scenes are well done with some great animations and writings.
On top of all that the dev finnished his game with regular updates instead of milking it for years to come like many others try to do.

If not the best game i ever played definitely one of the best that i found here female protagonist Nicole is stunning story is very good eather path and graphics are very good and the storytelling solid. 5/5 eyes closed.

fantastic game..just finished the latest update and it was amazing. the lewd scenes are so very well done and some of the best ive seen. the sfx on the scenes are just cherry on the top. kudus to everyone involved. and props to the devs for frequent and meaningful updates

Great game with amazing scenes.It didn't change much between the love and forced path, but it had enough to separate both. I take one star out because I wanted to see more action with the friends mother and the nympho aunt

Looks good. Well execured VN, with a variety of choices, achievements and stats system. Things are missable, so I had to replay scenes several times until I found a way to fully unlock it. It does not make the game worse here, more fun that way.

In a way this is a unique stats system, I have not seen in other games, it adds a lot to the gameplay despite it being a VN.

The scenes are hot as it meant to be in an H game.
The story is actually great.
The dialogues are not overly bloated and are readable fine, the text can be seen and is made on a transparent base.
It does not take long to get to the first H scenes and subsequent ones. The game does not blue ball player like thousands others.

Not a bad game if youre into the incest/corruption kink, but wtf is with all the 5 star ratings?

First of all, the mother (or step mother or whatever) doesn't really look much older than the MC and since the only point of this game is corrupting and fucking your mother who doesn't really look like a mother in the first place, then whats the point?

Second, fuck these content blocking choices. Not much content to begin with and when you block half of the content behind some cryptic choices events then its even worse. I hate gameplay which requires use of walkthrough.

this is an example of how a H game should look like. every scene in this game is hot heroines are hot, only thing I don't understand is why MC is such bad looking comparing to the rest of characters, those eyebrows maybe supposed to make him look badass? idk.. only downside, each episode is too short but on the other hand dev could drag you to the pointless events/dialogs to buy some time, so I guess it is fine. Some people complain about lack of walkthrough but I think current version increases replay value so trying different paths is fine since each episode is relatively short.

Game is netori at its finest. One of the best ones you can play if you want to play netori since you wont find many in that.

Cons
I will get over the cons since they are not many
1) Some options that you won't even think should matter in a way will block you out of certain scenes. This will be probably made easier in the future so its not that big of a deal breaker. Just use Renpy back and save to see what you are missing out on.

2) The minigames are absolute disaster if you are playing with a touch pad especially. They are downright annoying and are there just for the sake of it.

Pros
The pros easily outweigh the cons
1) You get the best netori experience. You can take any route. You can be sympathetic/lovey or dominating. The former is still not fully developed yet so look out for that. The dominating route is absolutely that and it doesnt hold back. It might not be everyone's taste but well then what are you doing here? Only play it if you want you curb your inner animal and walk the path of discipline >.>

2) The models are one of the best. You will not see many like these. They are realistic and downright baddies.

3) Animations. My goodness this might be one of those rare games where animation is done so much justice. Every fuck and every movement is done justice. Realistic voiceovers as well without making unrealistically dramatic

4) Updates. Despite the sheer amount of work it has, the dev is pretty quick with updates. Note that the game has high quality stuff, the update time in proportion to that is being praised (not that its actually super fast)

Overall beast game

PS- The gentleman talk about no way of grinding money in the review section missed that there is a way of grinding money at the shop. Use the renpy power of back and saves to use *that* feature to its best capability.

I really want to like this game, it has a lot going for it, but the way it's presented, the near impossibility to see all the content in the same route without locking yourself out of content in the same route (forcing what appears to be at least 2 or 3 replays of the same route) makes it more frustrating than hot.

the "stepmom" and "step aunt" models are both very hot, the 3 stars are for that mostly, the MC on the other hand is very generic "bad boy"

But just the sheer impossibility of even making an educated guess as to what some option is going to lock you out of has made me quit playing this game 3 times now before finishing an update.

You need money to see a lot of the scenes, hell for some reason the MC has a pay by the minute phone plan instead of a regular phone plan, which drains the little money you get and have virtually no way to grind. and it appears you are locked out of ever seeing it as this is not a sandbox game you can come back to earlier content in.

On top of that you miss out on scenes for missing some random response 5 responses down the tree of a scene 3 chapters ago or not getting enough points in content 4 releases back.

Even the walkthroughs gave up finally, the most recent update for the mod is 2 chapters old at the time I write this and the text guide is 1 chapter old.

the game should have 3 differentiated routes, Love, Lust and Domination players can navigate reasonably easy with consequences and benefits fairly easy to determine in general.

No Mercy (v0.9) is a well-crafted non-consensual visual novel centering on a cheating stepmother who becomes blackmailed by her (step)son. While there is a "love route," the blackmail/rough path is more in line with the game's title and the core of the narrative.
The game includes some minor ntr elements, such as a mandatory blowjob scene in the introduction, which is essential for the story to unfold. If such content is too distressing, it may be advisable to skip this visual novel despite its overall appeal. (I'm not an ntr fan myself, but the intro scene is the justification for everything else and therefore tolerable in this case. NTR is not the main focus of this vn!)

Because of the vn nature, the player must make decisions that lead to various outcomes. To access all scenes and achievements without excessive trial and error, a walkthrough is recommended. (Without it's likely to miss content.)

The dialogues are mostly convincing, and the plot, aside from the aunt/stepmother's sister subplot, is engaging. The aunt's storyline feels rushed, as she seems to pursue the main character too quickly and without sufficient build-up. This can detract from the realism of the game for some players. However, the main relationship between the MC and the stepmother progresses more naturally and is better-written.

Graphically, No Mercy employs Daz3D models and includes animations that enhance the erotic scenes. The visuals are generally well-balanced with the text, avoiding excessive reading. There are no textwalls or endless inner monologues and most dialogues in general are meaningful. Also the dirty talk never gets ridiculous.

The only significant graphical issue lies with the stepmother's character design; though she is described as 37, her visual representation appears to be much younger, which can be disappointing given the context. Especially her face looks like the one of a young woman in her 20ies, and clearly not like a mature woman being close to 40 years old.

Unfortunately this is a common critique in the realm of visual novels featuring MILF characters, who happen to look like young women in their 20ies.

Despite this flaw, I can confidently recommend No Mercy. It delivers a compelling experience that is well-managed in terms of pacing and erotic content.

lovely C:, i really love the story and the animation and by far one of the best maledom game i've played, looking forward for more! also cant wait for the next chapter bout the dad finding out, shit bout to go wild
