VN - Ren'Py - Completed - Revenga [v1.0 Extra] [Maks]

not bad vn, plot isn't overly used and graphics are nice as are models, plenty of chars for mc to fuck or not, several hrs to play unless plays with skip but then loses quite good story.

if ending had been better then this would been solid 4 star game but now it's 3.5.

The girls are beautiful and the story is actually pretty good and understandable. The CGs/scenes are actually also pretty good as well but you need the extra content. If you don't have the extra content the scenes pretty much drop down to like a 0 because almost nothing happens without the extra content quite literally.

It was a little underwhelming sex wise. I had so much hope from the developers last game and this one just didn't deliver the same way. But it was still pretty decent game.

If you don’t want to share your women with friends, then DO NOT play.

0.8 is still going well and everything is ok and the game looks hell good, but right at the beginning of 0.9 you have to share a woman with your friends and still this woman would like to fuck you, but still fuck your friends. That is, the last two updates to the game go over the boundaries. A 5-star game drops to a 1-star game.

The main story is interesting, just the ending pick up the pace too fast, but enjoyable anyway. There are interesting characters they could have a bit more build up, but the focus was more on the Revenge story, so it was okay. The renders and scenes are nice and these characters looks really good so nothing to complain. In general a nice revenge story just a bit rushed in the end.

I did like the game but the ending just killed it all. Scenes and talking points were a little rushed in the game but you got what was going on so you wanted to continue playing it. Hey we are investigating on what happened to your mom and dad, arrest, court, prison, update on everyone, few sex scenes, and then ending. This was completely rushed and proofreading needs some work. Almost from the get go on this update you could tell it wasn't going to be long... Sad to see it end but dev must have better things to word on.

Version 1.0

You've got the spark of something greater, you just need to tend it right.

I got about an hour into this game, but found so many things to criticize I had to stop. Apologies if something if off-base because of my limited playtime.

I gave this 1 star because 'Visual Novels' are made of writing and pictures.

Your pictures are fine. There's a good degree of variation between characters, and even some specific examples of unusual design choices, like "Mi Pene" Enrique, the BBEG.
But you also make some pretty lame choices too. The girls are mostly thin white women with nice boobs, albeit with reasonable proportions, a surprisingly rare quality.

Your writing is aggressively NOT fine.
I'd like to start with what the good was:
1. Your characters have good structure. A few more details and a lot more development and they'd be incredible.
2. The guy cousin who said he'd fuck his mom is iconic, more of that please
3. Your pacing is good. Seriously, the story moves at a perfect speed. If your characters made more sense, you'd be in a very good place.

Now the bad:
First thing: women don't look at muscles like men look at boobs.
Like, they DO appreciate them, but more as a sign of dedication and effort.
There is a certain subset of the population that value them, but it's more kink than vanity.
Also, it seems like you don't think about people's perspective before you write from them. The men in your story are written well enough, there where most of the good moments are, but the women are...
Honestly, they're barely even people. You don't seem to really understand a woman's perspective, and that's coming from someone who only knows it by being related to one.
If you want to know what I mean, investigate "the female gaze". Politics notwithstanding, your writing gets better the more you understand about the world.
Another thing to improve is the relationship between characters.
Those three temptresses should be tearing each other apart. Toxic people next to toxic people is like trying to put a fire out by throwing fire at it (you get more fire, is what I'm saying).
The cousin and her friend should have some kooky shit going on between them, have you ever met women who are best friends? They know each other so well they speak a different language 1/2 the time.
Honestly, more "I'd fuck my mom" but just other characters saying it to each other instead of the MC will do most of this for you.
You do it pretty right by having the stepmom abuse the nurse. Think of how your characters should treat each other, not just the MC

That said, the father is a dumbass motherfucker and I'm here for it. Like, it definitely does NOT make sense that he can't tell his wife and stepchildren are the first, second, AND third coming of the anti-christ, but it's very funny. It's a genre staple of these "revenge on the step-bitch(es)" stories, and you do a good job with it. "Now I know y'all don't see eye to eye" ass lmao

Last important thing is porn. I'm a sadist with a daddy kink so big that it's only dwarfed by my insecurities, and I couldn't begin to be interested in this game. It's weak. Honestly, the lack of personality in the characters made me more sad than anything, and it I can't get hard when I'm sad.

On the off chance you read this, thank you.
I'll make sure to give your next game a try.

Instead of the nonstop asskissing going on I decided to post a review the game deserves. Praising a Dev for finishing a game is the dumbest shit I've seen, once that happens other Devs will think it's okay to constantly half ass their endings. In this the game was the same as the last one minus the lame forgiveness route at the end. Your main antagonist help orchestrate your mom's demise and you fuck her? That was your big revenge plot? No torture, no much needed asskicking, I couldn't end her and put her and Enrique six feet under...just...jail. And the game finishes with a rushed orgy lol. The Dev hasn't learned anything from his first project and that's the sad part.

Damn this is a good game, with characters that you'll grow to love & characters that you will loath right off the bat. The story is actually very original for a VN game it also has heart, some genuine character development & yes there is Revenge to be had for 1 character in particular I don't think I have hated a character more than one in this game lol. It is well worth the download

Call me a soppy old romantic git, but I loved this game. It's funny, pretty well written, engaging and even brought a sentimental tear to my eye. Wall to wall pussy, which is awesome, and the premise is a bit of a different take on the whole 'MC returns after father's death yada, yada, yada' story.
Renders are great and the gameplay is pretty straight forward.
Yes, it's somwhat short and to the point, but I applaud the dev for this very reason, too many games are bloated or skewed by pointless characters and plotlines.
Bravo!

This review is for version 1.0.

Overall, it's an above-average game and worth your time to play. The game isn't super long, so you won't waste a lot of time if you don't like it. The current overall rating of this game is 3.5 and that's exactly where I would rate it. I gave it 4 stars because do believe it's above average.

The developer had a quick and regular release cadence, which helped to keep players interested.

The graphics/visuals are very good. The models are attractive.

The spelling and grammar errors are there, but they're not too frequent or too distracting.

The lewd scenes are generally pretty hot visually, but are poorly written, leaving players feeling like they're over before they start.

The story is where this game lacks. It's shallow and gets even more shallow toward the end. Readers keep expecting a plot twist that never happens. I suppose you could argue the story is more like real-life, which is mostly boring. It's predictable and full of clichés, like a bad B-movie but still lacking any humor, action, or suspense that would make the story entertaining.

Well it finished at least, the Dev didn't waste any time wrapping this up. So I feel it's on brand to give a rapid reaction review and I'll be short and sweet.

Renders: Good the lighting sometimes bothered me but overall it was good.

Characters: Didn't really care for anyone romantically, there was nothing to build on. You meet Maddie on a plane and withing minutes you fuck her and she becomes your GF later on. The MC was another issue, sometimes he seemed boring and too laxed especially around a woman the killed your mother, he slung too much dick and didn't focus enough on getting revenge. I wanted to see a darker path at least but everything felt too tamed.

Story: It was mediocre for the reasons I just listed and the ending was very much rushed, No way should an option to fuck Mallory been given at the end. Maybe if there was a dark path and MC raped her, okay, that would've been a better scenario. But this lackluster ending where she gets life when most of the players wanted to see her killed was a big miss to me. It ends in fast paced fucking kind of like the Devs previous game, which looks really good right now compared to this.

Overall it was an average game at best.

Enjoyable story, good visuals, and a satisfying ending. I really enjoyed Revenga. I am looking forward to their next project!

The branching paths and the somewhat multiple endings was great, and nothing felt over the top. It played like a good book.

Good Renders
Decent enough story*
Another rushed ending
Hot but rather quick sex scenes
Great variety of lovely models to choose from*
An actual plot


Minus the hiccups and minor inconsistencies this story served it's purpose. It was a decent enough plot to keep players like me engaged, bringing everyone together to see the demise of Mallory.

The MC losing his father sucked, and I know it's a running gag on here with dying fathers, but it still sucked even though the players knew it was coming. I lost my father months ago so I couldn't help but relate to the story and the ending of the 0.9 scene, moving on.

V1.0 Review:

When I speculated that the game was near it's end I wasn't expecting it to be so abrupt, I mean it wrapped up kind of the same way Second Chances did and that wasn't a good thing. I figured Mallory was somehow gonna escaped from custody the dramatic conclusion was gonna take at least 2 or 3 more updates to fully wrap everything up. But no, that's not how it went down. Players got the choice to fuck Mallory or walk away, there was a quick sentencing, which resulted in life in prison and that was the ending. The MC got the final dream sequence with his parents and went back to fucking. All of this happened rather quickly to me, but I can't say I'm surprised by anything Devs do anymore.

I was one of the people that didn't like the way Second Chances ended, I wanted this game to sort of be the redemption project, but now I can see that that won't come to fruition.

Nearly all aspects of Revenga 0.9 are not quite perfect but good enough.

The story is not overly complex but intriguing. The writing and grammar are not perfect but rather good. The player has a choice of being more of a jerk or more of a decent and noble person.

Renders are of decent quality. Models are not exceptional but good; some girls are quite pretty. There is a good amount and variety of sex scenes, with many characters, including group sex. Animations aren't perfect but OK-ish.

So it's 4 or 5 stars; as it keeps me looking for more updates I give it 5.

the story is not that great ,it`s quite dumb, like LOL dumb, a lot of cliches used... actually scratch that it`s full with them
mario has a better story than this !
the graphics and animation are kinda ....meah ,it`s not bad but not good also

Version Reviewed: 0.8

I'll start with the story which comes off as pretty cliche but it's much darker than one would expect. Personally, I enjoyed the story because the author was taking a chance by taking it in a dark direction.

MC's father is dying of cancer. His mother died when he was 9 or 10. His father married his stepmother soon after his wife's death...likely out of grief. MC is a formerly chubby kid who was brutalized by his step-mother and step-sisters. Now as a man he's in great shape, college-educated (kinesiology) and wanting to work as a personal trainer (which I should mention, is not especially lucrative).

The first problem with the game is the characters...primarily the step-mother and step-sisters. They're overtly evil which doesn't really help the story much. It's fine if they started that way and realized they needed to play a different game, but they continue to be horrible people (and everyone else recognizes it). Subtly would have helped the characters and the story. The other characters are decent enough.

The 2nd problem with the game is that the faces lack expression too often. Others have called this out as well so I won't dwell on it.

The renders and animations are good...above average (other than the lack of expressions).

The last problem is the dialogue. I feel there's too much time spent on characters providing exposition (and too often, resorting to name calling). If the characters had more than 2 or 3 expressions, a look would say so much more. Ultimately, this hurts the characters and the story.

The author has some good ideas but falls short on delivery. That said, the story is decent and I enjoyed the game...but it could have been so much more.

Graphics - 7/10
Animations - 7/10
Story - 7/10
Characters - 5/10
Fun - 7/10

Writing is bad, thre is not much sexiness going on, the characters are not being sold in a way that i would buy them. Sex scenes are kind of average or bad, there is not much going on besides the typical things but shot in a boring way, nothing spectacular about renders. Animations are 2 frame loops.

I wouldnt recommed this over any other game out there cause is not exciting visually, asn there is nothing really spicy going on.

I get what Maks is going for with this game. He's definitely trying to tell a story with things going on other than just rinse, lather, repeat... But, the execution just isn't particularly good. Most of the models are attractive, even the absolute lunatic of a villainess is attractive when she's not pulling that hideous scowl.

The problem for me really is just the dialogue is so damn stilted and there's a fair bit of mood whiplash going on throughout the story. We literally have to have everything stated out loud as if this was a Neil Breen movie where the characters explain their feelings and motivations in excruciating detail rather than showing it through the action and a more natural style of dialogue. Obviously, I know the dev isn't a native English speaker, and I'm not going to be totally heartless about it. I understand his intentions and the level of Engrish is not too terribly bad. It's just not very immersive when I see a character, who I've really only just met brag to me that they're an "expert cocksucker". That's not really the kind of thing I'd want to hear a woman say to me if I were about to have sex with her, because it would take me out of the moment and all I'd be thinking would be, "How many cocks have you sucked to become an expert?! Five? Fifty?!" Things like that remove me from the narrative. This game could be fixed in that regard with some effort.

I love this game ! The models are awesome , the villans are very evil, the sex scenes are hot, the MC isn't a simp, and can (if you choose) to be a really nice guy, the story is also fun ... Revenga is just a nice happy revenge romp - with some redemption (if you want) . I really like this game !

Expressions, what's with the expressions in this game? Most of the time, everyone has a kind of stunned, deadpan look, as if they've been accused of having two ears. Well, yeah, of course I do, um...?
There are a few exceptions, we see angry faces, but very few smiles, and I don't think there's a single laugh... I don't know DAZ, but assume natural facial expressions are hard to create? Maybe one has to get expression asset packs. If so, I strongly suggest the dev team do that.
Apart from that, the artwork in this game is quite good, I think. The women models are beautiful, and there are some good little animations sprinkled throughout. The MC is a cypher, but tolerable.

This is a fairy tale. Once upon a time there was a young man who loved his mother and father. But his mother died tragically and the father remarried an evil stepmother with her two nasty stepdaughters. There's even a cinderella-like gf. Anyone familiar with this creator's previous work will recognize the theme of the evil (step)mother. 'nuff said.

It's a VN with choice, but the choices only seem to matter in terms of sexual partners, so, y'know, gallery mod.

There's a lot of sexual content, but the problem with expressions makes it all seem very dispassionate, and I wsh the dialogue was less robotic. One character says she is a great cocksucker, the same way she might say she makes a mean grilled cheese. Another character offers a massage or a blowjob, much like she'd offer a... a grilled cheese. This is especially jarring with the side motif of dream scenes with the dead mother. They're supposed to be tender and angel choirs, but, like, he just got fellatio and a grilled cheese, so it doesn't really work. Tone, there's a problem with tone throughout.

I really enjoyed this creator's earlier work, so I am hopeful that they'll pull this one through. One problem I have, which I think is common to those who enjoy these games, is that most of the sexual content (so far) is with female characters I am least interested in. That's not a criticism, it's just preference. But I think it indicates the risk when you populate these things with lots of characters, and I think there are too many in this one to hold the story together.

Anyways, definitely worth checking out, and if you like it, then also check the creator's earlier stuff.
