Out of curiosity and hypotheticals, what year does the game take place in? The only confirmed dates in the game that I remember were 2009 (the sex tapes of the mom).
The distant future of 2020.

Also, weird question - How do you get Hana to call you Daddy? I've seen it in the memories, but not in my playthrough, so one of my stats must be too low, i think.
At the near start of the encounter, there's a choice: "You'll both forget your anxieties." / "You'll have this bitch calling you daddy." What you pick there changes the context of some of the dialogue.

Made a compressed Android port of Pale Carnations Chapter 4 Update 3 with Lunarmist's walkthrough mod.

Got some basic gestures loaded in: swipe up for save menu, swipe down to hide UI, swipe left to rollback and swipe right to skip. Save files are now stored in the Documents folder. This sometimes means that you may need to close and re-open the port after installing so the save folder is properly created.

Due to the size of this game, I've split it out so you will need to install the apk, run it to get it to create the game folder that can be found in your Documents folder: Documents/Eonor/e.palecarnations/game. Then move the archive.rpa file into that folder and re-run the port.

Please let me know if you encounter any issues with the ports and I'll see what I can do to get them sorted.

As close to Pale Carnations as possible, with a good story and also plenty of choice. I also like the corruption part, if you like it too.
Harem Hotel has a LOT going on content wise, but the story is not as dark as Pale Carnations

Depraved Awakening and City of Broken Dreamers
All personal recommendations:

I would classify Maids and Maidens as "in the same vein" as Pale Carnations in that they're both HS games where MC dominates (or romances) various women, but the age and power dynamic is different between MCs, but there is no bondage (...yet? Indications of future content).

Harem Hotel is the HS corrupting dominating sibling to Hail Dicktator's DAZ3D BDSM focus. Both have MC managing a hotel hosting a growing ensemble of lovely employees/residents.

The Headmaster is a good HS game that emphasizes the "D" in bdsm set in a "high school". Think: you swapped places with Kathleen and are directing her how to Dom the house girls (like which spanking tool to use, and when), with newer content allowing you to take a more "direct" approach.

Depraved Awakening and City of Broken Dreamers are certainly good but darker storytelling from the same dev, though I wouldn't call them "like PC" as there's not much Dom or corruption content in CoBD (it's been a while since DA wrapped up, so I might have forgotten some content).

Another game with some potential "dark content" would be Karlsson's Gambit. Heavy focus on femdom, but optional maledom and malesub paths with quite a lot of player choice.

However, THE BEST corruption game that I can recommend is A Mother's Love. I highly recommend this game regardless, but if you like Rosalind as a sexually insecure MILF, and the choice to romance or corrupt/Dom her, then this game was MADE for you. Pay no attention to the "Abandoned" tag, the dev is currently posting progression updates after a year-long hiatus.

There are other story, choice, bdsm, or corruption games I could recommend, but I wouldn't classify them as "like PC" considering style and/or niche/targeted audience.

Just finished the update, and despite it not being too Hana focused (and being more Veronica-centric), damn I liked this update a lot.

- Ian and MC working together on the Darius mystery; We've seen MC and Ian's friendship until now with them just hanging, but it was great to see the 2 of them working towards each other with something on the line.
Looking forward to how this Darius mystery resolves as well as in what ways the 2 of them will help each other
.

- While I wouldn't say I'm romancing Veronica as my canon playthrough (my obvious canon romance being Hana), but despite that, watching the replay scenes in the memories section, that dance scene was funny, not to mention that 360 degrees camera angle work when MC dances was quite unique.
And ngl, that sex scene with Veronica was HOT
.

- Victoria's dialogue with Ian was good, heh.

- Doctor Chuck and August. It does seem like with August, it is quite tricky to raise up his Trust stats. A lot of times raising his stats conflicts with raising Chuck's stats (raise in one seems to decrease in another)?
Given that I'm romancing Hana as my canon LI, I do wonder whether there will be other avenues where I can raise raising trust with August without resorting to either violent or criminal choices.



Anyways, quite enjoyed the update, and looking forward to the next one already, heh.

God, this game is so good.

In a sphere where I am being continually disappointed with my favourite titles's updates, PC makes me care about my least favourite characters as much as my favourites in an update focused on the two lowest on my radar.

Despite being a big S bdSm game, there's something comforting about it, like a home cooked meal in a warm house, on a rainy night. It's a joy to spend time with the characters.

So I think I'm a couple of updates behind and wanted a refresher on some points. What happened to MC's dad? Victoria became a pornstar and a prostitute to maintain their lifestyle right? so sometime in the past she stopped doing that, what does she work as now?

The MC's a Med student, is he on break now? or he hasn't started the program yet?
[trying to understand how he has the time to work at the club lol] thanks.

After downloading the latest update and loading my save file from the "You have reached the end of this build" save state, I got a Python error that did not allow me to continue the story.
I had to load my previous save and repeat the final conversation from last build to be able to continue with the new content.

Story-wise and lower level, there's Cohabitation by Redux which is about corruption within a household. It's completed but a very slow burn from what I recall.

Depraved Awakening and City of Broken Dreamers certainly are darker and you might find similarities. I haven't played them to comment.

Finally, Countess in Crimson would have a small village, magic, and you trying to be either a decent guy or an asshole who also corrupts or enchants the women you'll be involved with.

Sadly, I don't play too many really dark and corrupt games similar to Pale Carnations, but that should give you a few options to begin to find what you want and get a similar feeling.
Fuck yeah bro! Thank you very much.

The MC´s Dad died from natural causes (as far as we know), but suddenly when he was a young boy. Viktoria became a pornstar, NOT a prostitute, to keep a roof over her and Edwin´s heads, since they got no one else who cared. It is not fully clear what she works now, but there are hints towards an office job.
The MC is a medicine student and has few problems with the workload at the Club. He is moszly needed on weekends over the majority of the year, only during the Carnations month he has more to do.

Died from complications due to an accident.
Yes she did porn because she didn't want MC's life to change so drastically right after his dad died.
I want to say she's a music teacher but I don't think its ever said what her job really is.
He's pre med and his school is on summer break.
