Ren'Py - Completed - Romancing the Kingdom [v1.0] [Jill Gates]

I just couldent get into anything this game had to offer, theres no real MC in this one since you pretty much controle every single character in the game, so it just feel pointless when making choices since you deside every outcome in every way, playing a game where there is no MC is just to boring.

And all the choices was also driving me crazy, it constantly has "Name: choice" "Name:Choice" and the reason to that is proberly that you controle everyone so you would have no way of knowing who the choice is for if it wasent like that......

Story is bland princess finds a dude fucking some bitch in a tavern and desides he will be the new fucktoy, which he never was in my playthrough, i just went all out lesbian so the dude never had any reason to be there.

Then theres the girls, i found them all pretty ugly which is a rare thing, but they just dident do a thing for me and all of them having the same build makes it even more boring, 0 diversity.

Animations arent the best either, average at best.

Music dident really fit the story at all.

[Rev @ v0.80]

Art's pretty nice; some characters tend towards stock assets, there're some issues with taterface and some skin tone looks a bit odd in some shots but overall it works.

Writing is alright; scenario's novel enough, characterization's good. Some of the dialog choices seem to operate on Girl Logic(tm) in that what you get doesn't seem to match what option you select, but I guess that keeps the plot from feeling too much like mashing lifeless dolls together.

Liked most of the NSFW content; appreciate F/F, group, etc. Didn't care for the buttplay stuff but I'm likely oversensitive to any amount of it so reader results may vary.

TLDR: Yup, good 'nuff. Godspeed~

love the open emphasis possibilities on lesbian relationships. characters are unique, story is as well. Summer's definitely my favorite character, but all of them are good. Unfortunate its abandoned tbh, probably would've hit up jillgates' patreon account soon

I really like how the story is going so far, bugs that I did encounter were fixed by the developer. I hope that later on, there's a route to go full F/F. Good Dev. There's quite a bit of content, I do wish the first response to the step-sister carried weight later on in the story.

Review as of version 0.55

STORY: The plot follows an amazon princess looking for a mate. So she goes to the nearest town, enters the first tavern and there is a man humping a wench. The princess appraises the bull who is happy to become a sex toy for the princess, her family and entourage. Quest accomplished, the rest is just porn. The is no humor to make up for the lack of story depth. There is no tension buildup. The writing is poor. Many scenes and choices tend repeat themselves.

SETTING: A fantasy setting that is just bland and unimaginative. There is pretty much no background to it.

CHARACTERS: Characters are as shallow as they can be. Sex is pretty much their only motivation. None of them is particularly memorable.

GRAPHICS: Below average. Backgrounds are poor and uninspired. The characters look average at best. The body proportions are fine, not inflated like with many other games.

PLAYER INTERACTION: There are player choices, but their only purpose seems to be to determine what sexy content comes next. The problem is that you make decisions for the princess, the male sex toy, and also the other girls. So who does the player actually represent? It seems to me that player character is actually some kind of porn director who just watches the action. Zero immersion.

SEXY CONTENT: Fairly average. Nothing outstanding. Sex scenes do include animations, but offer little interaction.

THE GOOD: It's playable.
THE AVERAGE: Graphics, sexy content, animations
THE BAD: Story, writing, personalities, lack of identity, female armor

OVERALL: A poor effort that fails as a VN and is average as a porn game. Passable while you wait for an update on other games.

The following review is based off my personal experience with playing this Game/Visual Novel... I try to be as brutally honest and detailed as I can, and these are my own opinions and thoughts, from one or more play throughs... The version this review is based on is v0.45...

This is definitely a unique game...

The visuals of the characters are decent, with unique and creative backdrops... Although in a few cases the characters do not feel like they are immersed in the backdrop, but are more like standing in front of a picture of the backdrop... It's hard to explain... There are short but fluid animations now and then...

The script is pretty good as it only has the occasional spelling/grammar error... The plot revolves around a female protagonist amazon who has just turned the proper age to seek out a male companion... He is brought back to the amazons for a 30 day period where the game takes place... The amazons are mostly bi-sexual and it definitely shows through out most of the game play...

The game play style is filled with a lot of repeating text and the occasional choice... Choices can effect content displayed as well as relationship stats and training stats... The whole premise is that the princess, along with her step sister, are supposed to be training to take over the amazon throne as well as work on relationships... Each game day begins and ends pretty much in the same ways most of the time, with some small variance now and then... There is a plot twist with the step-sister wanting to take the throne over the protagonist, but it's not really a driving point for most of the game play...

Overall, this game is pretty much a B-rated porn fest disguised as a slightly story driven grind game, within a semi-fantasy backdrop... Most erotic/sexual scenes are between women mostly, which some players may appreciate in a mostly male driven game genre... The story elements are not really deep as most involve repeating text followed by sexual teasing and then more sexual/erotic scenes... I didn't play it all the way through to the end, mostly because the repeating text is annoying to skip through and if I wanted to just look at and read about a lot of porn, I can go watch a short porn video or something else... This game is mostly varying forms of masturbation material, placed in a very basic game mechanic with tiny bits of story that mostly push towards more porn and/or sexual teasing...
