Ren'Py - Pill King [v0.25 Remaster] [Effx Games]

Great game and worth your download and support. The play through is amazing! The models are stunning and it isn't a concept that I have seen before. I can not wait until the next update. I am a big fan to say the least.

Well story is meh at the moment, dudes gets "hired" to be a lab rat which turns him into a childish lust driven and complete idiot with no controle of hes mind and there is no cure for it and he cant resist hes desires and to survive he has to fuck hes familie and everyone else, to me its a bit boring and it sounds like you might be forced to fuck people you dont want to touch with a 10ft pole like the mother in my case and if that the happens game most defently wont be for me, but that remains to be seen if you have a choice or not.

Next problem and one of the bigger ones is the LIs, they look nice but they are emotionless, no expressions no nothing just boring and if thats the cost of using celebs faces then its absolutly not worth it.

MC is just the standard run of the mill type, childish with a mindset of a 12 year old, cant help him self looking at tits and it gets blamed on the meds/gas he got hit with in the lab, but its just the same shit as alot of games.

Girls are hot kinda goes without saying, but they need ALOT of work, seeing the same face with the same emotion a million times over is just not good enough.

Animations are good, atleast some have a bit of face movement, but could still be better.

Music is about averge.

Game might have some potential which is why i give it 3 stars for now untill i can revisit it once it gets alot more content since at the moment there really arent much to come for.

Pros:
- The characters bodies are nice and the renders are solid
- I didn't find any bugs
- The in game guide is good. If you cheat some money, you can complete everything pretty easily. You don't really need to grind anything besides money.

Cons:

The models bodies are nice, but at least one or two of them are celebrities. Emma Watson and Taylor Swift, I think.

But that's not the issue. Their expressions are. Doll like. They never have anything other than a blank look on their faces, no emotion at all. It's very creepy and uncanny. Simply giving them expressions would improve the game a lot. I mean literally, their expressions never change. No smiles, no grins, no laughter. They barely even open their mouths. Soulless.

This game has the opportunity t lead to great things.

Game play is simple but enjoyable with explanations given on how it works and how to learn more.

The Renders in this game is some of the Best I have ever played. clear almost life-like with beautiful ladies as well. Well done in getting this right.

That alone would make it worth the time to explore since it is a sandbox set-up, but a simple non-time consuming setup.

Hope to see more of this one and really hope to see what else EFFX can come up with in the future hopefully holding on to the level set by this one.

Thanks Guys

Boring
Unengaging
Drab deadpan expressions
Ruins the immersion by using the celeb faces. (though I don't know who some of them are...)
Needs to be spell checked.

Not sure who's parents they are, even with the patch.
For example, the MC refers to the parents by their first names, mostly. However when talking to a sister he says they are her parents....rather than our parents.

The female parent certainly doesn't look old enough.
Ages don't seem to be relistic enough.

Simplistic writing style with some strange sentences.
"I'll try to get for this young man a job here."

You can almost hear the robotic sounding voices coming from everyone....since there are no expressions or mouths moving.

Too bad. Was looking forward to this one.

It is clear the game is in early development but with updates coming quite quick its definitely worth playing.
It has good models and gameplay with a bit of grind which idm.
The scenes rn are more voyer stuff but since it is early days it is to be expected and imo is a positive since I prefer a slower approach to corruption, if that isnt for you it should be worth sticking around and waiting for some more updates.

no pros for me in this game
cons
the grind is bad
nothing else to do than learn
a voyeur game or peep,creep
no story or build up
renders are ok.iish
better wait till is finished
charachters models are on the low side and only 1 type of body

need itto add ....after v20 the game grinding got worst,is almost impossible to have those stats if you play like any othergame,.
the cuckold tag is missing here,bcs ,when you watch mom and dont have the stats for it isnt voyeurism,is cuckoldry.
forgot to say that models are a+AI generated so i dont expect any kinda of surprise in that department ,they are lifelless and no facial expresions at all,
still 1 star and im hopelss about his future develoment by now.....

Excellent and well put together game for a first release with only one update. Playing the game, I found no bugs which is unusual in most cases. The game is well laid out with understandable instructions for gameplay. If there is a question about anything, the letters at the top are there to guide you. Most scenes are repeatable from day to day or week to week like all sandbox games are, but the graphics are well done and nice to look at so repeating scenes are no problem. Great looking models and the story seems fresh. I can't wait to see how this game progresses.

The setup for the game is interesting, and I like the look of the characters (new and old). I have always been a sucker for the classic "corrupt your family in free roam" style, so I hope the dev is able to continue this game to completion. This game is definitely one of the games with more effort put into it and it shows. Check it out, definitely recommended. I look forward to seeing what the dev does with the game.

Story :- Simple and good ( as of ver 0.11) . Normal corruption and mind control game set up . Mc get some drugs and use it on girls . But a bit of difference is that there is a dad ( MC's dad ) in this game . Yeah it's time to cuck dad.

Visuals:- The dev uses Ai but i don't care until i get bad visuals but this game doesn't have that . The visuals looks great . The girls are hot and sexy.


Characters:- The game only got two- three update ( it's in early development) so it's hard to say how the characters will turn out but for now i just say i like the characters because I don't find anything to complain until now


Suggestions :- Although the girls are top class but they don't have emotions (as of ver.11) But i think in two three updates the dev have to make emotions . There is grind in this game as of now but the dev says that he will make the game less grindy so that a plus point .

Ok so the dev take suggestions and criticism in a good way which is a big plus point (i dont give star(s) for this) . This game could go their way (good and bad) but i dont think it will turn out bad That's Why i am giving this game 4 stars .

So far my only complaint is the little bit grindy skills .
Characters and renders looks decent too.
Simple and very good looking UI.
Lost all intrest in this game after changed models...
That was the main selling point of this game

- kind of boring;
- story - after the initial setup, almost nonexistent;
- sandbox that doesn't need to be sandbox, because essentially everything happens linearly;
- grindy, very grindy;
- short scenes for the amount of grind;
+ nice models that are based on celebrities;

I really enjoy the game!

The Characters:
Alice - A cute young and smart sister with a look that suits her character very well. What's not to like here?

Lizy - She is the character I'm most indifferent about. Her characterization is well done, but her look doesn't particularly speaks to me on a personal level. She'*s a good character, that doesn'*t fit my taste exactly.

Sarah (Mom) - Very nice mother character. And most importantly her look is very different from any other mother character in similar games. Her character on the other hand is similar to many other mother characters. But that comes down to the genre I suppose and isn't a bad thing. All in all I like her very much!

Dad - Typical workaholic Dad, that neglects his family. His look is as unique as all the other characters in the game. Nothing to complain about. But most of us aren't here for the male characters anyway.

Ashley - Former secretary and now Lab assistant. She looks great. Her character also looks good so far. But there is not much characterization as of yet. A character with a lot of potential.

Boss - I like me a good boss character in a game. Her looks don't particularly speak to me, but the characterization so far makes up for it. Her interactions with Doc are great. (Hopefully this character doesn't end up on a forced Femdom path. Currently no indication, if it will be or not.)

John - When I first saw his character I had to laugh, because of the choice of looks. He is a male character with little characterization currently. Maybe we get to "know" his family in future versions. Nothing wrong with this character.

Doc - Best male character in the game (besides MC). A cookie professor, who helps the MC. I love him very much. And his interactions with the Boss I quite fun.

Gameplay

It is a Sandbox game, which can be hit and miss. Some Sandbox games would work better as a visual novel, because they're to linear. This game gives you enough freedom to warrant a Sandbox style. You can pursue every character at your own pace for the most part.

There are some grind elements when it comes to stats/skills. But they are very minimal. And I don't have problems with grind in games in general. So it doesn't bother me at all.
There are currently two minigames in here. I appreciate my games having actual game elements. So I'*m pleased with this. That said, the games are VERY easy and nobody should have a problem with them. I wouldn't mind a few more challenging minigames, but if it stays this way I'*m okay as well.

Visuals
Easily the shining star of this games. The unique twist on the character models was what made me decide to give this game a try in the first place. The character models look amazing! And this game also features EXCELLENT animations as well. Currently those are mostly masturbation related, but if those are any indication for the sex animations, then they'*re going to be stellar.

Hopes
Bringing in a few more niche optional choices could be good for the game. Maybe some Dad-Alice NTR (MC watching). Although I'm not a fan an optional Femdom route for the Boss would be nice for those with that kink. As well as some others like Feetjob, impregnation, BDSM, slavery and some others I might have forgotten may widen the audience as well. All those should be optional, though and there should be a vanilla path for every character so everyone can pursue every character they like without being forced in a kink they not like.
I'm intrigued what any additional characters might look like. What will the aunt be like? Will there be a cousin? Does the MC have a Best Friend (with a sister and mother of course)? Do we get to know Johns family?


Lot of potential for the game and I can't wait to see the progression!

In my opinion, the best combination of elements that a pornographic game should have to capture my attention is to mix unique art, beautiful women, and an interesting story. This game has a lot of potential. The unique art and AI of well-known celebrities was a bold move by Effx Games, and I applaud them for it: if you don't take risks, you don't get far.
I'm not a fan of sandbox games, but this one is better than most. Easy to move around and move forward once you read the journal.

The plot is interesting, but I think that the story should have a little more humor IMO.

4 stars for unique art and for taking risks plus great dialogue.

Not really the best of games, highly repetitive and counterintuitive gameplay (go to work or grind skills, which you need cash for which you gain from work).

This review is from day 40 on v.0.12 and besides not being able to optimize the time, the game progression is also highly linear, although obfuscated behind "do this saturday 14.00 and do that at sunday 20.00" etc. Meaning that the skip time and sleep til next day buttons will quickly become your favorites.
As for the models, I think almost eveyone can name the actors whom they're based off, and maybe its just my dislike of having Bruce Willis as a dad and The Rock as security guard, but it comes off as comical and nonsensical.
That said this game can become better, by simply allowing the MC to manage his time a bit better and not paying peanuts for work, which simply protracts the gameplay and makes you feel like the MC is a 1-braincell chemically enhanced voyeur-stereotype.

That being said, its still early in this games development, but unless some basic gameplay mechanics are optimized this one will not become enjoyable - unless your kink is models resembling more or less famous actors.

After playing through everything I can say this came out of the oven a little early.

Let's start with the good.
Now for the not so good.
Some things to work on.
Lastly, the story.
tl;dr great looking AI ENHANCED ART, kinda empty atm though

First time trying this title.
Good looking characters but they lack any facial expressions and its a bit unnerving. I actually almost gave up on this early in just due to that.

Story line needs a revamp/rethink, its weak and nonsensical... take a horny young man and what make him slightly hornier?.

I can see potential here though.

The Dev has made some improvements from the initial release from what i understand, and hopefully they keep improving. The lack of facial expressions definitely needs to be fixed as a priority.

Will probably give it another go after a few more releases to see if there is hope for this one.

Good luck Dev.

Recommended.
While the facial expressions are a bit lifeless, the scenes overall look amazing and I love all the actresses that were "deepfaked".
Def gonna be one of my favourites, few other games let you fuck the shit out of Hermione, Effie and Daenerys.
Looking forward to watching it be perfected and expanded, hoping it wont get abandoned and/or get filled with bitches that noone cares about just so you can postpone the main cast's sex scenes. (Photo Hunt is a good example of this.)
I don't give a shit about the music of dialogue, one is muted the other skipped, so I can't make a statement on the quality of eighter.

Pros :
The dev tried something different in terms of looks.

The grammar has Improved.

Cons:

Different isn't not necessarily always a good thing. I for one just wasn't impressed by the models if you can even call them that. I don't know much about the whole ai scene and what supposed to look what way or the other. My question is are they supposed to look this dull? From the images I've seen of ai there are mostly these crystal clear images but this looked noisy in a lot of ways. Overall, it just was off putting to me.

Taking a bunch of random celebrities and putting them through ai isn't next level to me, it's lazy.

Story wise, it's generic. Bitchy housewife, neglectful husband and you're supposed to take her side because she's "Hot" when in all honesty she seems like the problem. Your father, another celebrity, is actually a pretty reasonable guy.

The simp of a mc just randomly volunteers to be a test monkey which may or may not kill him and now he's peeking, lusting, and voyeuring nonstop. That's about sums up everything.

If given the choice to buy or sell I'm selling . Nothing to woo me unfortunately.

I like it so far. The renders are very well done, the base mechanics, the look and music are a good start. Not much content yet though.
I like the real actor faces.
What bothers me is that the characters always have this blank, emotionless expression on their faces.

If the story develops positively and the faces start to show some actual emotions, then this game could be pretty good.
