Ren'Py - Completed - Paprika Trainer [v1.2.0.0] [Exiscoming]

Version: v1.1.0.2 (completed)

I would say it was a decent game.
Story and writing were ok, not something sophisticated or compelling but simple and to the point with dialogue that makes you chuckle from time to time.

Gameplay-wise the game was mediocre. One good point I can say is that it "seemed" like there is plenty to do and systems to explore but after you get the hang of it you understand that some of it is very repetitive and some of it is just meaningless most of the time. For example, the gadgets are useless except one which is vital to progress the story.
Another example is the karma system which to the end of the game I didn't see how it adds something to the game.
One cool feature of the game is dressing up your girls which is cool but it doesn't translate to the sex scenes but only for the stills.

Moreover, I encountered handful of bugs, not something too ennoying but at some points I though I broke the game and didn't understood whats going on but in the end somehow it sorted how... no idea what was going on.

Art and animations are nice, it felt really fluid and pleasing to watch. A bit of disappointing that there was not more of it but that's sort of a good thing I think to want more of something good.

Overall its a decent game and worth a try to see if it clicks with you.

This was amazing to play, as a fan of TS though out my early tween's this was sp enjoyable to play, the writing and humor are top teir and story very engaging.
while it does need some polish with certain small things (Sprite eye color inconsistency to name one) It was in no way big enough to ruin the expierince. The only inconsistency in the story I found was when Sam and a certan charater are found talking outside during a party and where talking about things that are never brought up again.
I've played nearly every early access and finshed renpy porn game out their and this is definitely in my top 5.
9.5/10 possibly a 10/10

I had more fun playing this than certain AAA titled games. Unique mini-game elements (to me, at least), and the grinding system makes it worth grinding and empty out available items from the mall. Chance-based events are also cool. I thought people would naturally give this a 5-star review, hence why I refrained from writing a review until now. This game is one of the few I'd recommend playing from this site. My only cons are that they should remove the bug or option to hire someone from a university when nobody is actually available to hire. It's painful seeing your hard-earned money go down the drain. Either that or the game should insert a notification saying that "no more extra women are available for hiring until further notice." Also, there should be more options on what to do with the extra women you hired.

Definitely one of the better renpy games available. Essentially its a somewhat lore-friendly followup to the Totally Spies show, but R-rated. Minigames, goals, and of course sexy stuff. There's a few small issues between different artists working on the assets and a few small spots in which the different gimmicks cause the engine to do a flip, but otherwise its a very entertaining (if lengthy) romp.

It's one of those games where I really want to put a fourth star due to the amount of work the developers put into it.
But I won't, because I'm a honest SOB.

The +:
+The game definitely has a "Totally spies" vibe turned serious.
+ The plot was decent and made sense (in a Totally spies world^^)
+ The characters were good (even the secondary one)
+ The Art
+ The Jokes made me laugh

The - :
- most gadget are kind of not needed
- Some plot element didn't appear when the Dev wanted those to appear, so it made things confusing
- The endings were not polished. Just one throwaway line and an image and that's it.
-The Middle game grind. This one is waaay too long, and doesn't serve much purpose. Heck, sometimes I thought I missed an event.
-The Karma system, while a good idea, didn't serve any purpose.

Conclusion:
Play the game , it's defintely worth it. I hope the devs will improve the pacing in its next games because it's definitely the biggest flaw of this game.
(So close to a fourth star, a pity I can't give half a star more )

Great game, a little slow in the beginning, but the last 30% of the game goes past in a flash, fluid animations most of the time, and great sounds through out the game.
I hope he makes a third game, really enjoyed this one as well as Orange trainer.

A good trainer game that suffers from a bit too much grinding and a bit too little lewd scenes. If you bypass the grinding through cheats or ATM Codes, this game can be pretty good. If you don't mind a little bit of grinding and love a good trainer game or the Totally Spies universe, this game is for you.

If this game had 2x the lewd content and 50% fewer screens on missions and less filler, it would be an S-tier game. But there’s just too much clicking without enough pay off. I spent the entire game waiting to sluttify my spies, but the last 25% of the game just completely blue balled me. Hell, after you finish the game you can’t even get the scenes where people offer to give them extra money for doing slutty stuff.

It’s nice that you get a token scene of each sexual act with each spy (and a really well done one tbh) but I would’ve preferred a higher volume of lower production value scenes, since there end up being only around 20 CG’s in this 6 hour game. And as I mentioned before, it would’ve been nice if there were more scenes for sluttifying the spies, because it felt like that aspect was cut short in the end. Overall too much fluff, but what content that’s there is solid, so 3/5.

I just finished the game. This game is an example of trainers. A good story, humor, nice arts, incredible animations, a good lifespan, and ... Ok, the gameplay is a bit "grindy", but hey, trainers are meant to be done with cheats

Art is fantastic, animations are even better; story isnt bad either. it may feel a little grindy but if like me you started playing games like princess trainer this isnt too bad, then again I still cheated lol

This seemed clunky during development, but now that it has been listed as completed, I'll not hold back - putting out updates to a completed game should be just additional bugfixes or bonus features, so I will treat this like a fully fleshed out game due to the status. With that in mind, lets get into it.

There was certainly effort put into this game, but I feel the biggest issue is a lack of content vs playtime. The amount of grinding that is necessary far outweighs the five or six CGs given for each girl, which are nice, but few and far between. Maybe that's just how I played, but if the author is playtesting his content and has found a 'sweet spot', he should either make that the obvious route to follow, or to restrict other play methods.

Moving onto playtesting, I feel there was some bug finding/fixing done, but not nearly enough compared to what I've come to expect of this author - they've shown themselves capable of this with previous games, so I don't know why this one feels much more clunky and bug-ridden.

The pacing aside, the story wasn't bad, but it leaves little in the way of choices and missed content, so I do not see myself ever replaying this for small amount of rewards with two endings given at the very end that only result in a different picture and two lines about how your life carried on.

I love the idea, I like what content there is, and the partial voice acting is a nice touch, but it does not make up for the core game's flaws. Sorry.

I gave it 4 stars. I honestly didn't think there was too much here that i can complain about. The work that must have gone into it considering the outfits, the missions, the story, etc was obviously a lot and worth the 4 stars. The only problem i had with it, and the reason i dropped it a star, is the complete lack of relationship to the MC. Was the sex hot? Yes. Was all the fooling around hot? Yes. Did I feel like any of the girls cared about and or loved the MC at the end and started having sex with him because there was a relationship there? No. I get that "love" and "relationships" dont always fit in a "trainer" but it still left me feeling bitter.

I'd probably give this 4.5 stars if I could, but 5 is fair enough. I liked it a lot.

GRAPHICS: All top-notch. Despite varying art styles between animations, the mini game, and the usual dialogue scenes, it all meshes very well and is charming and sexy. More scenes (no animated blowjob!?) and a little interactivity would be great, but what's here is really good.

GAMEPLAY: Gets a little repetitive, but that's kind of unavoidable with this genre. The missions are a neat diversion and put this above most other trainer games I've tried, though it does get a bit too grindy here and there.

One unnecessary source of tedium was grinding. Hypno earrings were so important, but I almost never got the ingredients except saltpeter, meaning I had to alternate buying valuables and cooling agents, then go and craft. There should be a button to just buy gadgets outright for the cost of their parts when I don't have any ingredients, and keep crafting as just a way to use ingredients when I do.

It can also be hard to tell sometimes what actions are going to move time forward. Frustrating to do something, intending to set the spies to jobs after, and have the game bump you to nighttime. Not a big deal, though, since there's no time limit I'm aware of.

WRITING: The protagonist is fun to play as, and the girls are charming and have nicely distinct personalities from each other. There's also a good sense of progression, both with their relationship to the MC and their gradual increase in sluttiness. There's a few weird inconsistencies, but mostly just with the job/side dialogue. (For example, spying on Alex she talks about blowjobs, but then in a story scene later she doesn't know what one is). Not a big deal, and less jarring than some other games, where the main story progression itself feels out of whack.

MISC: Tracking down all the pics and clothes is a pain. Not even sure if I'm missing clothes, or if there's just random intentional blank spots. Some kind of hint system, at least post-game, would be ideal. At minimum there should be Xs or something on deliberately blank slots.

It is good. Just play it, I need to type 200 words to simply vote this game up, which is sad, because I can barely make 20 words to say that this is good. So play it, like now, after I reach 200 words, I will submit this rating....

It is good. I just like all this dev games.

Excellent game, rally enjoyed it. Graphics were perfect, very professional and extremely attractive girls. Thank you! Just wish there were more games as engaging as this one. Keep up the amazing work! Well done. I look forward to your future work.

The grind was not wroth these shit endings and boring sex scenes. I had so much hope for this game and it ends so shit not making it worth doing hours of grinding and boring missions honestly just skip this game

I waited for this game to be finished before i'd give it a go and coming from the previous game i expected smthing better than...this.
Its even more grindier and the sex scenes are buried under so much grind that i gave in.
Animations look like 480p vids even tho they are smooth they're bad. Story was ok but after soo much grind i just Ctrl-skipped all of it.
If u're a Ctrl demon and have the patience to sit down and w8 6 hours for the 1st sex scene give it a try. Not recommend it otherwise.

The game is nice, and it's finished.
The graphics are nice, and the drawings well made. The voice acting is not bad, the story is a little boring but the jokes work well.
It's a little grindy but it's a trainer game so, it's in the contract.

Two complains though :
-The scenes are boring, no dialogues. they are well drawn and animated, but they aren't enough. They should at least have a three some with each combinaisons of spies. And even then, the lack of dialogues really kills it.
The minor characters just have a picture to add to your collection. They wouldn't eb there it would make no difference.
-The game is buggy. The developper clearly used his time to improve the game more than to correct the problems. Which is not a bad idea because we all know a game where at each update the developper spend half his time to correct a bug that will occur more bugs. But it's a little too buggy. maybe with the new updates it will be better, but I think there will always be new ones.

Overall, a good game, but really, the main problem is more about the sex scenes that are "too short", sometimes you feel like it would be better to just check the pictures online.

the game is sloooooooowww to get quest done and there just 3 sex sence and 3 tease and three of each thing for every girl just little to get and lot to do but the art is very good and the idea not bad if just this game plan well for it and for story and ;any stuff and make steeps for each girl to turn in to slut way better the game will be very good one

Game is alright, what little art there is, is all really nice, though the sex scenes themselves are a bit lacking in terms of engagement, no dialogue or anything, the girls also have some weird expressions going on in them. There's a few weird exclusions though, for example there's no oral sex with the main 3 girls, at all, except for 1 still image that was added in one of the final updates. Very oddly paced
