RPGM - Rise of Corruption [v0.3.8] [Umarius]

The "game" has pretty good 3DCG. But this game is extremely unintuitive and unfinished. The maps are unnecessarily large and empty. The combat only serves to pad out the game.

And the game is a big walking simulator, especially trying to corrupt the other 2 girls. You walk from the throne room, down to the 2nd floor, to the balcony, to the jailroom, to the jailroom's basement, THEN you can talk to the girl, which teleports you back to the throne room and you repeat the process again.

And corruption for the girls is super fast. You can go from 0 to 100 by talking to the girl like 5 times.

This is the kind of stuff I'd expect from a rough demo, not from someone making 1.5k a month, and released the "game" for nearly a year.

I think it´s a very boring game.

The story is okay but nothing more.

The characters have very little personality.

The music is generic.

The fights are really boring and take too long.

The models look below average.

The sex scenes are really bad looking mostly because of the backgrounds but the animation aren´t good either.

The training aspect is okay.



Wouldn´t recommend it just a standart boring RPGmaker game with nothing special.

amazing game, wish the dev good luck with it's continuation, the story is good, the hypnosis/corruption in this game are very well handled and the variety in female characters in this game is great too, I'm looking forward to see how this game will look when it's finished

Rise of Corruption is an RPGM game where you take over for the dark lord and become a very bad man. There's even some girls to corrupt along the way!

The gameplay is the problem with this one. While it's a pretty non-traditional RPGM game, it still is an RPGM game. There's a lot of walking between objectives, little in the way of waypoints to help you figure out where to go, and the combat is still tedious despite basically being there to show what a badass your dark lord is. Well, past the first bit which was just annoying as usual.

That said, it might be worth fighting through for the corruption content. While a lot of games think that walking up to an empty girl render and dick slapping her until she submits counts as corruption, Rise of Corruption tries a lot harder than most to create heroines with personalities and character to corrupt. The girls are a little trite considering they're your basic JRPG adventuring party, but that kinda works as a sort of meta scaffold to juxtapose this game against something like dragon quest. Overall it's pretty well done.

The art is Koikatsu, for all that entails. It doesn't do anything ground breaking, so if you like the screenshots, you'll like what's in the game.

Overall, I feel like the game is somewhere between a three and four. While the corruption content is quite good, the story is mid and the gameplay is poor. It's certainly worth a shot if you've ever wanted to corrupt a JRPG adventuring party, but there's a rather annoying about of RPGM to fight through to get at that content.

Extremely well-done corruption and great worldbuilding in one package. Plus a ridiculous amount of scenes fleshing out the corruption even further and exploring the mentality of the girls you're corrupting, making it feel earned when you finally have another devoted pet rather than just moving down a harem checklist.

The world itself is somewhat barebones but the side-activity of stabilizing your dark empire and the NPCs changing their tone as you progress with that helps add some depth. There could stand to be a bit more however and the enterable buildings without visible entrances really need arrows indicating they exist, I was unaware many buildings in the port town were more than decoration until quests pointed them out to me.

The War Room and Prison are also strangely located and while you get a fast travel ability fairly quickly to fix this it's still odd that most of the castle is empty space while these two sheds on your roof are the most important places in your base. It'd be nice to have a few more places in the castle proper even if just for flavor, like the armory.

Nitpicks aside if you're looking for corruption + power fantasy this is a pretty great choice. Looking forward to where it goes from here.

Went through every portal and nothing works, just a tasteless pad to gametime
Wasted almost an hour, had to savescum each location till I checked every portal, turns out theres a hidden one where it looks like the branches dont go anywhere untill you wonder over there for no reason
Finally get there, skip everything bcuz r ur srs, you think I want to read a wall of text after that??
Told to go find an NPC, then come back to the same place, except they give you a name instead of just telling you that. Again, I'm way past done reading anything at this point an hour in w zero worthwhile content to show for it
Get back and guess what, another goddamn maze LOL ya no
It's no wonder the ppl in the comments/threads say nice things, they're the only ones that stuck around for more, speaking of, not a hint to the maze in there so don't bother searching keywords
Save yourself alot of time and check the files for images, I'm not going to bother

Idk why so many games insist on a hurdle no one wants, and isnt needed in anyway at all. Then get defensive when ppl dont enjoy it, what did u expect??
Someone's already said it, but seriously, remove the maze crap, why is it even there in the first place, you have a huge map to explore already, why do you need more needless time padding??

Edit: Honestly I blame myself, totally forgot its an RPGM tag
I keep playing these games because I found like two good ones n keep forgetting they're just regurgitated garbage and that's completely on me
Because there are ppl that actually enjoy consuming this crap n I'm just intruding on what they think is a good game

Doesnt change the fact that it wasted my time with a design that clearly hasnt seen critique
And perspective from someone that isnt part of the brainless fanbase can be valuable if the devs are competent enough to see it
And to give credit where its due, the dev has thought about removing some of it, unfortunately not all for some reason
(The first stage n some monsters from other "stages")

This is a fantastic corruption game. Even the fact that it is RPGM with all its annoying elements does not detract from that.

Where this game shines is in the storytelling and characterization. Whilst a little clumsy and forced at times, the author does an amazing job of leading the player through the girls' degeneration into willing succubi. Which is where it goes so right - the MC convinces the girls to want to become mindless fucktoys; not just turns them into mindless fucktoys.

So yeah, one of the best in the genre. Compares well with the Hero's party must fall.

[Reviewed as of v0.1.9]

Rise of Corruption is a call back to an earlier time in the adult games community, and despite its clumsy start it's a welcome nostalgia trip for people who remember those days. It has relatively weak mechanics, a nostalgia-driven premise, and some simple yet effective porn elements. Folks who are more partial to RPGM games may find something to appreciate here, while those who think the engine gets in the way may want to turn elsewhere.

The porn games community has grown a lot lately thanks to things like RenPy and Patreon. Newcomers might not be familiar with the older community where games were made in flash or RPGM, had more core gameplay elements, and had clearer roots in certain content—JRPGs in this case. Rise of Corruption is a very clear love letter to that old era. The story, the art, the basic mechanics, etc calls back to those early games. Whether or not the game works for you or not may depend on whether you have that nostalgia or soft spot for the old style of games. If you just want a RenPy VN you likely won't see the appeal.

Now, that isn't to say it's all good for people who like that style. There's relatively little thought put into the actual gameplay, with even bosses being easily wiped out without any planning or effort. Maps are relatively empty, and while a certain amount of walking is welcome in RPGM games RoC overdoes it. Half the maps could easily be discarded without jeopardizing the feeling the game is going for. It's hard not to compare RoC to one RPGM game in particular, which has been going since that time and has had a great deal of thought put into how to tie the RPGM mechanics into a porn game in a satisfying way.

The actual porn is decently done if you're into what it's going for. The visuals are an older lower-res style which you might like or dislike, and the porn follows a simple but effective trainer/corruption style. There's room for some more content—every character thus far follows just about the same progression, to the point where large parts of certain corruption events are just copy+pasted (e.g. the escape events). It would be nice to see the characters branch out a bit more in terms of both personality and porn scenes.

Overall RoC isn't anything special, but I appreciate seeing a new dev dive into one of the more neglected sectors of the porn community. I'm optimistic that with some more time and effort the dev can work on some of the game's weaknesses and turn this into a great tribute to an old genre. While it certainly isn't the top game or VN I've found on f95, I look forward to checking in again in a while and seeing how it's going!

Rise of Corruption [v0.1.8]

What the actual fuck? How can anyone rate this above a 2? I have never felt so jebaited in my entire life.

This game features some amazing stuff like:
* Nonsensical story.
* Linear progression.
* Unnecessary walking between locations to pad out gameplay time.
* Subpar art.
* Corruption happens "because magic".
* Idiotic filler combat where you hold down spacebar to spam attack and sometimes top up your hp using a potion. Wow. Such skill required.

This is pretty much just a VN with all the bad things about RPG maker tacked-on. Nobody in their right mind should rate this above a 3, even if this is exactly your kink. It's just not very good at all. I smell some paid actors rating this thread.

Move on people, nothing to see here.

This is the first time I rate a game in here, this game is incredible, every single aspect that makes me love corruption games is here and better than ever. The story is good, the scenes are good, progression is good, you don't need to grind for like 20 hours to see a single sex scene, instead it is good paced. I hope we see more of this in the future.

Honestly I'm probably not giving a high enough rating. This game is very unique and very absorbing. At least to the point that I'm currently at in the game I haven't had one tiny lull.

The parts that would be 'that part' in any other adult game are instead condensed into a digestible chunk that both narratively serves the purpose it desires while also expanding the fantasy of the setting.

The girls corruption are truly some engaging things. From the perspective of somebody who absolutely adores when general subjects of talk changes to match the situation happening after a major event, this game provides that to you and more. Every single stage of corruption of the girls offers new things to purview and allows you to follow their journey from chaste righteous heroine to loving loyal corrupted servant.

I'm going to be honest, I truly underestimated this game. There are cons that I'll list later but the pros are overwhelmingly positive to the point. Seldom do you see a burn of corruption across multiple people be this absorbing. The scenes themselves and their internal struggles with trying to resist are sublime.

Now

Cons

• The escape events between the girls is a bit samey in a slight way. In all other events the MC has different lines to say when having them run through the same tasks.
• There are a couple of typos and grammatical issues
• The early game accuracy where you can miss a lot is a special of this engine but still annoying

That's about it.
Pros

• Great Corruption content
• The hero of the party you're corrupting is legitimately unlikeable in a way that isn't a blind parody. Pretty good.
• Differences in dialogue at each step of corruption
• The visual queues separating a girls inner and 'corrupt' thoughts.
• The world building

I could easily recommend this one to anybody who enjoys corruption content. I look forward to the updates. The developers probably have a longtime fan in me.

I'm a sucker for succubus corruption themed games. The english isn't bad either, and i like that i don't have to grind my stats so badly.
The arts looks good, and the story is pretty decent.
I look forward to an update every single time.

Beginning is a bit grindy at the very start but soon enough the gameplay varies well enough. The corruption itself is lots of fun and doesn't happen too slow or too fast, however, the end product of them turning into a succubus is a lot less interesting than the actual corrupting.
Great script, characters and interesting story that is not too overbearing - very good blend of everything, dev put lots of work into this and it shows! Cant wait for more!

this game is fun i played V0.1.4 of it and despite how little content there was what was there was great
i think if there was some voice acting or something like how the animal crossing characters talk it would help improve the game

I'm surprised how good such a game can be, I've been looking for such a game for a long time and it's finally here. I will continue to leave a lot of support and give feedback. It reminds me a bit of Nano control (also a good game)

Terrible writing and boring mandatory filler combat. Forcing to player to fight a few dozen slimes (or bats, they're both practically the same) in a narrow 1 tile path isn't engaging. The story is equally terrible filler. The only redeeming factor is that some effort has been made in the art.

[v0.1.2]
Good start.

-Story, Originality
You are pleb.
Now you are Dark Lord. -> Go corrupt women from hero's team!

-Renders
I like Koikatsu models (write it for every such game).

-Sound
Standart music and sounds (don't remember hearing h-sounds).

-Playability
Finished it in 1-2 hours.
Nice game, but lacks side content and directions for it (Nearly missed missions before total corrupting)

-Performance
Runs like an average RPGM game.

-Bugs
When I had to choose what city to attack I chose the big one and when I finished there were some jumps in plot progress (felt unnatural).

And when you interract with girls in prison you teleport to throne room. After finishing with them you don't teleport back...

-Animations
Changing images.

-Voice Acting
No voices (I think...).

-Grammar
Didn't see any mistakes.

-Amount of content
Good ammount of content, but it is very boting to walk around the castle here and there to progress.
Sometimes it is hard to understand what you have to do and who to talk to (too many otions and locations [throne room, prison, portal room(?)]).

Hope to see how it progresses.

A good idea of the game, a favorite theme of the succubus, his possession, not on errands for some good purpose, but for his personal gain. It would be nice to do the mechanics of the arrangement of the castle

Pretty good, especially the amount of general content and combat, the development of that makes it the gameplay feel less spammy and more active.
For the corruption, I especially like that its not just "bang, she is corrupted, here are some sex scenes", as I feel that would fit poorly here, but more of an air of genuine gameplay with a little bit of reluctance to the corruption that then results in some hot scenes.

Would love to see a bit more post-corruption stuff that leans into various fetishes once you have successfully corrupted, and while the graphics for the sex scenes look relatively good and fairly unique, I would like them to be a bit more varied and possibly look better than a character just floating in the air, though I guess some of that relates to the limitations of RPG Maker - overall very good game, will need good continual progress and updates to stay 5/5, but a very good start.

instantly 5 out of 5, For the 0.1 version show at least some of the concept of corruption when others are struggling and unable to make a simple type of concept of their own project and have almost no idea how to develop their own game or at least have some structure, rather than molding oil.
I only hope there will be a lot of emphasis on post corruption scenes and the initial corruption was expanded because it was too fleeting
