VN - Ren'Py - Abandoned - Prison Life [v0.18] [Gonzales]

A short, not too long or deep game. You’ll finish it in under an hour, in terms of story, it’s focused on corruption with an FMC, so check the tags. If you don’t follow the corruption path, there’s no adult male content other than lesbian scenes. Story-wise, the intro and the journey to prison are well-explained, and the prison life isn’t bad either, but there’s not much to talk about overall it's literally only 20 to 25 minutes experience. My recommendation: if you’re looking for a short game to kickstart your night, it’s a solid choice. Just don’t forget to pick your next game, as this one ends quickly.

Very hot characters, interesting story so far even at this early stage, would love the option of continuing with male prison visits. The main character is very sexy.
Pacing also very good, sufficient world building without bloated story details.

Genuinely don't understand how this one is (currently) sitting above 4 stars. Was excited to DL this one as the premise is interesting, but that's about all it has going for it.

The non-native English dialogue is clunky and ruins what little immersion there is to begin with. Lines are randomly repeated with different renders. The models look plasticky and generic. Animations are poor.

I can work with 'bad story/fappable' but this one doesn't do much for me. It's a bummer because a prison is a perfectly sized ecosystem to do a VN in.

Very good game so far. This can be huge! Controlling a hot innocent chick in corrupt prison is so sexy. I am looking forward to where this is going! I have not played a so good concept and story in a long time. I hope this keeps on going.

v 0.17

That's one of the hotest game I've ever played. There is a huge amount of lewd scenes, but there is also an interesting story.
Even if the story is of secondary importance in a porn game - this one makes this game stand out.
This game has potential to develop even more enticingly.

1. All the girls are gorgeous - the guards, the bad mamas and the submissive types.
2. The sex scenes are extremely hot.
3. The animations are smooth.
4. There are some hints that the story could become very dramatic.

This game even in this early stages is one of my favorites.
I'll be absolutely following all updates.

To the dev sofar - GREAT JOB!!!

MC is absolutely unattractive. Also I constantly felt sorry for her because the story is very sad. Even tried to avoid any humiliation. That is not how erotic games should be made and not how they should make you feel. MC isn't an arrogant bitch or a dangerous society member. Only Grace there is fapable. I extracted rpa archive to flick through the images and still nothing sexy, just pain and humiliation.

I do really like the premise, but like others have stated, the writing is a bit poor and unfortunately, there are laughable mistakes here and there. I wrote this review while still in the court scene because I feel like it encapsulates the issues the author has to iron out. For example, why is the detective also the prosecution? Why is the judge announcing himself as a Bailef would? I gave this game a 4 because I'm hoping it cleans up the writing. The author literally just has to watch an episode of Judge Mathis to make the game make more sense.
Edit - After finishing build (0.17), I will say I do somewhat like the characters. For example, my protag got sent to solitary and one of the first things she did, was start working out. I hope the author explores this defiant/proactive side of the protagonist in future releases.

Very hot concept (I'll be re-watching 'orange is the new black' now), and so strange that there are not more games in this genre. The art is very good for what it is. Is there better? Sure, but it holds its own and does the job. The writing is pretty hot (though it could be more vulgar given the concept). The story is straight forward so far (v0.16) but there are a few paths and they were interesting enough to try them all out.. and I'm fairly curious how most of them will play out. (Very much hope this game continues). The only slight problem is that there are currently a few bugs with the game.. Which is easily solvable (there isn't so much content yet that they're hard to run across), but speaks to needing some testers and tester feedback. I'm sure there'd be plenty of volunteers.

The author's choice of women in prison is very good . Few people choose this topic because it is easy to violate the rules and regulations of various websites .
And many people are not sure about the image of female prisoners , it can't be sexy and beautiful like other subjects, but it can't be too ugly and bruising .
The overall production by the author is very good , I even doubt the author worked as a female prisoner or a female prison guard .

I don't like lesbian games, so I launched this game without expectation of a miracle. And when it suddenly cut, I found myself deeply immersed in the story. It was an immersive experience. An experience like '1999 The Thirteenth Floor', where you merged with the MC and live someone else's life. FIVE STARS.
The one flaw is the POV of someone else's eyes. I want to watch sex scenes EXCLUSIVELY through the FMC's eyes or sideways. But not through the eyes of guys.

Typical Submissive Hot Protagonist game willing to be abused from the start, Protagonist corruption can go from 0 to 100 in 5 seconds depending on your actions, Game start options have no effect for now, Story progresses fast and I'm not sure where it's headed. But all these weak points are due to the fact that it is in a very premature stage.
High points and which give it 5/5 stars
-sexy characters
-Incredibly hot sex scenes (His dialogue is great, it seems taken from comics)
-Realistic female humiliation.
-Femdom and MaleDom completely optional (Although you will lose the content of this version)
-A clear hierarchical structure (I love this)

It might eventually get to a more decent place but for right now, poor writing, shoehorning, over-used tropes, a not at all impressive and largely predictable cast of characters. Render quality isn't the worst but that's really all it's got going for it.

Great game. It's kind of exclusive. I've been waiting for a game about a women's prison for a long time. I hope this project will develop. Great graphics, great animation.
It would be great if there were more sounds. But all in all, this is what I've been waiting for a few years.

good premise, theres not enough lesbian focused renpys and a prison setting is a great place to have one set in. Hope to see more, would be a waste to have this project fail. keep up the good work and i will keep coming back

Review written for V0.01a.
The story is a bit over the top and rushed in a fairly nonsensical manner in the way porn games usually are. On one hand it does break the immersion a little bit but it also expedites getting to the reason people will be playing the game. I think there is a happy medium to be reached if the story is polished a little bit more to make it feel more realistic (Have somewhat believable court procedings, nor have a girl tell her female drunk friend to go home with a complete stranger, etc.)
The MC is also a bit stupid in the way porn games with female protagonists usually are. It makes sense to do this from a writer's perspective because it makes it easier to explain the blackmail and other lewd scenes of cuestionable consent the MC might get herself roped up in but at the smae time it also reduces the effectiveness of those scenes by makeing them feel less meaningful (anyone can trick an idiot). The good news is thet this MC is nowhere near as stupid as a lot of other female MCs out there. In this aspect I believe with a little bit of work we'll have a good protagonist.
The renders look great, although there isn't much in the way of content at the moment, i'm sure it will be good quality material.

(Review as of v0.01a)

I usually try to rate a first release a bit kinder than usual as obviously a lot of the game is still to come and there is not all too much to critique at first, but I would still say that right now I am giving this game a VERY generous 3 stars.

The problems with this game seem already apparent from the first minute. The plot seems rather unimaginative and the dialogue seems relatively basic, almost like a forced trope of 'female domination' games that star female MCs on F95.

The opening plot revolves around your female MC, who is framed for a murder she didn't commit and is sent to a male dominated prison where she is introduced to the other female prisoners and is made aware of the fact that she needs to make 'money' inside the prison in order to help protect herself.

The story just doesn't seem creative at all. The worldbuilding could have been done a lot better (the whole she stabbed a guy in self-defence but immediately gets 18 years in prison for it is so basic and absurd without any established context). The one choice you have so far has no impact as well, but I am hoping that's just a technicality rather than a common trope in this game going forward.

The game needs work, a lot of work. In a first release you at least want to show the gamer that you are good in flushing out one aspect of the game. Nothing from the plot to the gameplay to the setting of the game does that right now, so the developer has their hands full if they want to impress other reviewers with this game.
