VN - Ren'Py - Ravager [v5.1.9] [4MinuteWarning]

5/5.
Favorite so far. Few issues. (Ver. 4.0.4)
Exclusively playing power fantasy, and always picking attack/forceful.

When you handle the farmhouse girl, and take the forceful route- your only option is to eat her or leave her limp and lying there, not to capture.

When handling the merchant, overpower her crossbow and capture her- all of a sudden you have to bargain with her, and always go 'nice & slow' or she'll tell you no. Please accommodate for forceful options. Now I've no choice to make this captive a queen or something ridiculous, and stay on her good side- despite that fact that she was overpowered and brought here forcibly, and is now captive in my dungeon.

It's the best on f95 because it allows for a one of a kind power trip. Please don't hesitate to play into that further. Give the dominant conquerors some more options please.
The more power- the better.

Love your work, still the best around.

One of the best games on this site.

This is just one of those rare games that I keep coming back to. At its current stage of development (4.0.4) Theres a nice amount of content with more being added at a nice steady pace.

The game is varied offering a nice amount of fetishes for every person. With good art work to match. The story is interesting and the gameplay is fun and easy to learn.

I highly suggest that anyone check out this game. Gaurenteed you will find something you like.

v4.04

The premise, animations, art, script are all excellent.

The story is good. I loved that you could choose your fetish in the preferences.

I felt like i didnt have enough time to build up my skills the way i wanted. Also, I would get skills randomly, no idea what i did to earn them. Should be a mod that modifies each decision to show what skill/attribute you get for choosing it. Losing at fights get you strength, eating a cow gets you strength.. I want that mod.

I didnt like the amount of places to go, or choices., I thought there should be alot more. I also didnt like i couldnt change my lair... I preferred the temple, but ended up somehow getting tied to the spire.

Great game, going to play it again and see some of the other choices. Thanks for sharing your hard work.

First things first, the game is really great with a huge amount of potential, and I cannot overstate how much I like this devs approach. When it comes to specific stuff about the game I'd say:

The Plot: Yeah I know it's kind of surprising to talk about plot in a porn game, but it actually holds up quite well with a bunch of interesting lore that I'm guessing the dev will expand on at some point. The main story has a very basic but still original concept (there's only 1 game that I know of that is similar, and it goes in a very different direction), that is a breath of fresh air in a genre oversatured with the same stories. Also, how cool is it to be an actual dragon c'mon.

The Gameplay: While there isn't too much gameplay to be as it is a renpy game, there is satisfying sense of progression thanks to your stats and state of your allies. Also, there isn't any grinding which is delightful.

The Art: While there isn't much of it, it is of very high quality. The distinction between sex scene art and conversation art actually works in the games favour, as it looks good without a ridiculous amount of work.

The Writing: I think it accomplishes everything it needs to in a porn game. It's not only well written but also rather interesting with a ton of charm; you won't find the second coming of Shakespeare, but then who would want to in a game of this genre.

The Characters: While rather barebones in their interactions because of the early state of development, each character is clearly defined with their own quirks that make them unique. Most importantly they interact with eachother, with some pretty great scenes to boot.

The NSFW: Basically the combination of the above three, and I have to say the dev knocks it outta the park. Trust me that you will not be dissapointed.

The Modularity: Way too often games of this genre seem to be made to only appeal to the dev. But here, you can actually select which content you will and won't see in the game, which I have to say is a godsend as it gives you the option to customize the game to your exact liking. Also there's a bona fide power fantasy mode to select, which is always a great thing for experiencing all the content the game has to offer without grinding or making unsavoury choices.

The Developer: Love the guy, he seems to be very passionate about the project, and it certainly shows in the final product. From what I've seen he actually listens to people's suggestions and complaints, and doesn't think he's the greatest thing since sliced bread. Not to mention he has a decent work ethic and the game steadily progresses forward. If he keeps up, I think the finished game will be a truly great thing.

Overall: A 9/10 with an 11/10 for potential. Do yourself a favour and play it.

Welp, found a new obsession...

Story
I love the premise of being the dragon going after his birthright. The intro was good at setting up an unknown, throwing you into the universe as a young dragon. You're able to piece more of how the linage works later throughout the game. It reminds me of Flexible Survival, where you only have a limited amount of days. You'll need to play through a couple of times to get all of the content. The stats are quite easy to understand and apply to certain scenes—the two diverging paths of being merciful or cruel. You'll need to pay attention and take your time to understand the story, especially concerning the Sun and Moon gods. For me, the story is exciting, which keeps my attention. Normally I'd skip through. However, the voice acting does help to understand the emotions behind the text. The voice acting will need quite a bit of polish, but I was able to understand what they were getting at.

Artwork
Like a few games I've played, there are different art styles to the CGs (assuming from different artists). You'll be able to choose this at the beginning, though they are really well done. One thing I'd love is a CG of the young dragon in like an appearance screen. I think there were only like 2-3 CGs that showed the face. For the most part, his design was consistent throughout all of the CGs. I think there was only one with Heloise, which seemed a bit off. The backgrounds and character portraits are great, though they do differ from the CGs. Overall really good.

Gameplay
Learning what actions and people would add to stats was probably only the element that took a bit. Other than that, pretty straightforward in needing to gain alliances with the different factions. With the limited time and the stats needed, it did take me three plays to beat the hunter Maelys, though the experience was different each time, which I liked. The different lair options were also interestingly able to discover and pick one of the three available, each with their own content, alliances, and bonuses. Going back to the content, you're able to choose what content you'd like to see in the preferences menu. I think due to Patreon, the Incest one didn't work for me (naga). Not sure, though. Loved the gameplay nonetheless.

I thoroughly enjoyed this game and planning to currently supporting it in the future. The only thing left to decide is a waifu. My pick is between Heloise and Marie-Anne.

Highly recommend a playthrough!

ETA: Forgot to add, for those looking at the gay tag, IIRC there are only two characters with m/m content. About 6 CGs in total. I especially love the dialogue and CGs of Eburon and MC. \^o^/

Version: 4.0.3

I'll start by saying that I gave Ravager 4 stars because of its potential but its fulfillment leaves a lot to be desired.

In my mind I expected this game to be "bastard game". Play a bastard and take what you want by ruthlessness, cunning and force. There are gazzilion Seduction games out there and not nearly enough "Bastard" or Ravishment games. And I hoped Ravager would be one.

The frustrating part that it does that. Sometimes. Sometimes it shows you what it can be but then stirs away for long long minutes of clicking "next" with blocks of text and too few images.

I admit I enjoyed playing the bastard. Giving a female prisoner to your minions to be gang raped was very cool (remember kids: this is a fantasy, yes?) and generally taking what you want by force is hot. However, these moments of fun were marred by long sessions of clicks driving the story forward.

The top issues which reduced my fun were:
- Flawed armies system. IMHO the current (4.0.3) armies system is severely flawed. Since you can only attack with one army, there is no real incentive for you to invest in the others. In fact by spreading your resources between the armies you are wasting them so why do I need more than one army? This is easy to fix IMO: allow the player attack with the combined strength of all your armies and allow one to lead so that army would get a bonus or something.
- Actions with no rewards. A good game rewards you for your actions and accomplishments. Currently in Ravager you may take a territory and... nothing. Yes, you army's morale may not be reduced or you may gain a future resource but that's that. No girls or victory image, nothing. Which brings me to the next problem:
-Battles are just blocks of text - An indie porn game developer is not expected to write Command and Conquer into his game. I get it. But the alternative chosen by the developer to give 5 minutes worth of clicking space and reading a description of a battle with very little reward (see my previous bullet).
- Waaaay too willful captives. So you are a big fucking dragon and you have 3 armies at your disposal and you capture hot babes, drag them to your lair and when you want to ravage one you discover that... she'll only allow you to titfuck her. Or blow you. This is annoying, to put it mildly. Yes, I understand that more sex scenes is more art but these useless captives are a really annoying aspect of the game. At the very least all captives should be fuckable. Like, real fuck, not "I'm saving myself for marriage so I can only blow you" fuck.

To summarize, what I enjoyed most about the game was its potential, and I hope it will fulfill it. As of version 4.0.3 it's not there but I intend to come back to it later to see if the developer managed to pull it off: an enjoyable game where you get to be a complete bastard.

I have to say that it must have become one of the most dissapointing games i ever played
And while for most i wouldnt care
I really liked this game, a little bit too much
The father mother thing with the elf is superb
But that damn act 4, where you have to go to battle to get areas under your control
Where you see all that you care for needed to be gifted to some abominations of lizardmen because you cant take random girls that have no relations to mc but need to be from his own horde/harem whatever you want to call it
Thats the most f-ing bs i have ever seen
Wanted to rate it a damn 0 star but the game isnt that damn terrible to deserve that, nonetheless my enjoyment of it became 0 after it

TLDR; Every major aspect is good to great. If you enjoy a story that let you either be mean or outright EVIL, give it a shot.

Very beautiful and engaging. Voice acting isn't a negative (not since Snow Daze have I been this happy ^_^)
Lots of fun choices with fun characters, a few instant-loss sections but you get quite a bit of warning. Stats play quite a big roll, but no need for grinding.
I wish you could 'lend' the girls instead of 'gifting' them to the factions; like get a temp morale boots before a big scene/fight (and get the H-scene), then take the girl back with a moral hit.
Other than that the usual gallery would be nice.

A fantastic game with good art, an excellent story, and a lot of potential. The Dev updates very frequently, and is clearly passionate about his work. I'd highly recommend it to anyone interested in seeing a girl get dicked down by a dragon.

Writing was gud, like the selling point of this thing. And dark fantasy setting is entertaining enough with all the choices available. I really really did not appreciate the art-style, simply too silly and a bit plastic. I understand the whole dragon thing, but if you have to draw a dragon dick make it a lot thinner than this or at least have it the same size of real life horse (pro tip: its not as that big as people imagine/draw ), so what people read is comparable with what people see on screen. Never understood the whole hypertrophy dicks, so could be just me. Still, when i read "up to the balls" and its impossible with the chosen art, i drop my disbelief. 3/5 for art 4.5 for writing.

Honestly, this game is great.
I've been playing it on and off for a while and I eagerly look forward to each update.

A number of things stand out about the game. The art, the writing, the variability.
Lately I've been revisiting parts of the game that I haven't explored in a while and I find myself stumbling across new and unique things.
Definitely give the game a go.
Usually I wouldn't recommend something until it's done, but this just really stands out.
Really recommend it.

What a game. Somehow manages to make me feel so many different emotions.

The writing is good, the voice acting is actually not too cringy and sometimes even funny. The story is really entertaining and somehow the scenes are quite hot and erotic.

There's tons of branching and many routes and ways you can go through. It definitely is a game that warrants many playthroughs. Normally, this much branching makes each route a bit less fleshed out but I don't believe this is the case with Ravager. I found myself thoroughly entertained by all the different paths. On top of that, each update is very impressive and I constantly am amazed by this game.

I played it when it first came out and was shocked by how much potential this had (albeit a real lack of content back then). Now, the game has developed and reached or even surpassed that potential.

Even if the concept sounds outlandish to you, try this game! Easily a 5 star and although it's certainly a bit more niche of a game, it does just about everything right.

One of the best Renpy game available.
I like how you never know which choice will lead to what, giving the whole gameplay a sense of realism.
Good art and a decent soundtrack.
The only Renpy game with voice acting I've seen so far.
Now I'm just waiting for the game to be completed.
Keep up the awesome work.
-Black Dragon

This game is honestly stunning:

Robust options
A variety of kinks featured
Beautiful and unique art
Voice acting
Customization

Such amazing care was put into this quality product, I'm honestly stunned.

As of 2.5.5 a good game... but this should probably more aptly be referred to as 0.2.5.5 as the game is not completed and there is certainly a lot of content to come.

There is enough content to enjoy oneself with and the concept is pretty awesome. Sadly the dev is unaware of vegetarian dragons... speaking of which, there is a pretty good 'good and bad' system in here, not Fable style but rather how you can progress through the game.

I haven't played through all of the content just yet... (Act 3) but it is well worth the download.

Oh and so much fun with all the options to turn content off and on... that's amazing! I wonder if you could basically play this as a SFW game....

Fantastic and highly promising game. Solid voice acting, interesting cast. Good amount of content for both cruel and merciful paths, intuitive gameplay and menus unlike a good chunk of other Renpy games.

So far I've gone through 5 playthroughs of the current content, trying out different combinations for the characters I like. I think this game is going to be one of those gems to play and replay.

The story of the characters is enthralling and you definitely get a feel for which characters you like and dislike from their dialogue and interaction with you. I like the options of having a sandboxy version along with the limited resource version.

The player system of stats is intriguing and I'm curious to see how they handle conflicting levels of reputation in dialogue in the future, but from what I can tell, it's going to be amazing regardless.


The most important part is the sex scenes here. It's rewarding. It's fun. It fits the characters.

5/5 Sweetrolls if the game had any ;D
But also, I'm hoping they add a NG+ option where your stats carry over for alternate dialogue. you know possibly Fus Ro Dah the antagonist off the building for a kill when I'm a giant dragon.

Great game even in its unfinished state, lot of options for dealing with people, but challenging (if not impossible) to get a "perfect" run where you can recruit all of the potential captives, which can be either a good thing or a bad thing based on personal preference. The writing is solid, as well as the voice acting, with the characters actually being believable/behaving as one would expect a real person to under the rules of the world they live in.

Too few game really give the choice to be evil, this is one of them and already one of the best, being voiced is always a huge plus, monster porn has never been something i've been into but this check all the right box in my fetish list.

Really hope this game will live to the expectation it's set up so far, good luck with that developer !

5 Star

Reason:

1. One of the most flush out game I've ever play.

2. Art and Animation is WOW! 11/10 (Mix of western/ Cartoon ish.)

3. Many path to choose from. (Play as charming evil Dragon, Devilish cruel Dragon, proud, charming, merciful and very innocent dragon... You get the point.)

4. Very nice sound track and Voice acting. (A little bit cringe without back ground music lol, but still amazing.)

5. High replay ability, Very enjoyable!
