VN - Ren'Py - Completed - Off the Cuff [v1.0] [AlexisRoyce]

I'm giving this a four despite various limitations because I am a fan of the concept and content. It is a captive torture simulator with the rare inverstion that your perspective is that of the captive.

It's a bit limited - there's not that much visual art, and it's relatively short - should take an hour or so to find all the endings. Fine by me.

It is well written, with convincing psychological aspects. There are a lot of wise-cracks, which is really not my thing tonally, but whatever.

The torture content is decent. The action all takes place over what seems like about an hour and features mostly moderate stuff but also two more hardcore acts you really will not find in most other games. Yum. You have been warned.

Honestly, not my kink, but judging it as an actual game it's pretty good so I'd recommend if this kind of torture porn is your thing.

I like a lot of choices with a few different endings to discover which is probably my favourite part of this. The dialogue is also well-written.

Would have liked a bit more CGs or at least not just looking at the same guy all the time.

I love the concept of the game, namely being defeated & tortured by a rival, but the writing of both characters just didn't do it for me. The dialogue choices were too over the top & quickly took me out of it.

I actually really like the art and the concept. The writing is good and the storyline is solid, but this is a different game then anything I have seen here.

I was expecting more sex based torture but this is real torture mixed in with a little sex and after a while I just felt a bit creeped out. It's a common theme; two enemies having some underlying sexual tension between each other, but are still enemies. These two, however, don't want to just hurt each other, they want to hit, cut and electrocute each other.

I would imagine there are those out there that are into this and in that case I would give it 4 stars, but this just was not my genre and to be fair I could not finish it.

The premise is really good, but too flamboyant. That thing of serial killers and hunters of serial killers, kills the mood. Two more realistic characters playing a kinky BDSM game would be way better. The execution... Not so good. Only a few drawings, the writing is too pretentious sometimes, and even boring, there are not a lot of real choices... This is actually a free minigame, but this idea of a game deserves more work and care, to become in a real game. It seems the dev is not going to continue with this idea, so it would be good if any other dev inspires himself in this general idea of a couple into a kinky BDSM game to make a better and full game with different characters and situations.
