VN - Ren'Py - Completed - Roommate Corruption [Final] [Love Seekers]

A rather short game, but sometimes that's a good thing. I liked it although I prefer more romance alongside the lewdness. Still, I'm giving it a 5 starts because I really like incest, specially with sisters, and the ending was satisfying.

This is a very short game with a really simple story that escalates from 0 to 100 in 1 render. The female model is beautiful and unique compared to all the other DAZ models but the Hscenes are pretty short and boring with almost no actual build up or dialogue.

Hana is one of ma all time fav characters , super cute and hot, really want to see more of her, in some other games.
renders are pretty good, story meh, mc meh.
way too fuckin short, need more, a lot more.
still nutted tho.

Short and very sweet, a sexy romance between childhood friends (not a euphemism) reunited after years apart, told in five encounters. There is barely any conflict or reluctance, they are both eager to fuck and just need to stop holding themselves back.

Come for the beautiful model for Hana, and especially her sexy facial expressions. Stay, and come, for… well, that.

Very polished, with good renders, suitable music, smooth UI and attractive visual design and effects, not to mention properly proofread text, grammatically correct without typos.

This is not a game. It's a slideshow with mandatory choices and beautiful graphics. You don't play it, it plays you.

Judging by the premise and the screenshots, I really wanted this game to succeed. There are things that definitely suceed - but most of it falls flat the moment MC enters the apartment door. I wish this game would play itself so I didn't have to.

Anyone with an eyeball can see these renders are gorgeous. Gloomy perhaps, but that's a matter of preference. The dev has eye for composition, framing and design. This game looks really A++ and it's where it gets most, if not all it's merit. Hana is beautiful.. the MC isn't, but it's serviceable to a degree. But pretty graphics can only take you so far.

This is not a game. Any choice screens you encounter offer one choice to further the story and other choices prompting a textbox on how you've made a wrong choice. At that point, user choice doesn't matter - so take it out of the game entirely. You wanted the story to be this way, own up to it. Don't give us the illusion of choice after asking for our interaction without a good reason. There was no good reason in the entire game.

Story. I had hopes for this, but it was in total vain. Forget suspending disbelief, this is a male almost-rape porn fantasy which holds little credit to realism. If that's your thing, most of the writing is fine grammar wise. It's just very superficial and skips important steps that add weight to the story. In turn, you won't really care for either Hana or the MC. There are gaps that need serious filling and I'm not talking body holes.

For being called 'Roommate Corruption', the corruption is blatantly non-existent. Even the ending story bit - where the developer franticly tries to justify what the novel made you believe - came as a plot device, not a natural part of storytelling. Hana isn't being corrupted, she stopped being angry after you groped her because she realized after years of abandonment - this is her only way to hold MC's attention. The latter is not bad, but the story would (realistically) be different if that actually was the case.

This product has potential, but seeing as it's now completed - it's not a enticing story and it's a godawful game. Even porn standards can't save that.

Click through this if you want to jerk off and have a male roommate fantasy (complete with deflowering) looking at a super beautiful woman. Stay away if you want anything else out of it.

2/5

I can only say that the game is excellent. If it were long gameplay, I would have complained about the character development, but because it's a short story, the Dev made a good decision by going straight to the point.

Great renders and the setting is interesting, but there is not enough effort placed on the character development and gameplay. The visual novel stops in parts to allow the character to choose a few different options, but this engagement is all pointless as the story progresses regardless. The corruption of the roommate occurs far too quickly and easily. There should be more resistance or reluctance before anything sexual happens. She doesn't even protest the first groping despite being so cold and distant in the opening scenes.
It's worth a quick playthrough, but there needs about 2 or 3 times the content in between the sexual scenes to make the experience memorable.

Either me or the developer has a misunderstanding of what corruption means. Personally, I don't think groping then fucking a girl who doesn't resist at all is considered corruption.

The story is very short and makes no sense. You go to live with a childhood friend for a week while you're looking for an apartment, she's kind of a bitch because she has to study a lot and you woke her up because you arrived early. Then you just grope her and she's fine with it. Then you whip your dick out and she's fine with it and sucks your dick. Then you fuck her and then she fucks you. Then you find an apartment and as you're about to leave she goes "omg, remember when we were kids and you promised to marry me i love you btw", so you stay. Feels like the story was randomly generated.

The renders are nice, but no animation, no voice acting and no sounds, just music.

I don't like being this harsh, but this is genuinely a waste of time.

A short and interesting kinetic novel.

Story
Not much of a story as as the game is short. MC has to stay for a while with Hana, his childhood friend until he find another place to stay in the city and sexual tension build between characters.
MC fits a bit the note of a rapits or someone that really push things.

Girls
We only encounter Hana. I like the renders and how she looks.

Renders & Animation
The developer put a lot of effort in the renders and the result is eye pleasent. It is a style that fits well but as it is particular might not impress evryone. There are no animation for the sex scene, but I presume that this is because the dev is at the beginning of his/her journey.

Quite short even for a kinetic novel, but it got the job done.

Basically, the MC is allowed to say with a childhood friend (their moms are friends as well, and the ending provides a bit more information about it)
But suffice to say, they got along really well in the past, an actual ring was given (not as a marriage proposal directly , mind you) and during this stay they quickly skipped was past childhood friend stage to lovers or more.

I'm not entirely sure whether it was mostly

1. Her being in love from before and quickly rediscovering it
2. Her being decently submissive
3. So stressed out from studying that any break is good
4. Secretly a nympho which was awakened by him

I know a lot of other reviews will say he's almost a rapist, but i'll only say 3 things on the matter

1. Pretty deep feelings from before
2. She allowed him to stay there in the first place, meaning she thought she could atleast trust in their friendship (or more)
3. Like he said, if she didn't want to do anything, she could've told him that or hit him. But the main argument with that point is whether consent is given when not strictly argued against or when they specifially & verbally give consent. Bit of both in this case.

Great renders let down by a porous, nonexistent "story"

Getting the good out of the way, the game has really nice still renders. The LI (and only other character in the game), Hana, is appropriately beautiful, and you get to see her from every artistic angle. The renders are done well, though perhaps a little oversaturated for that dreamy look, but the lack of animations is really jarring for a modern game.

The rest of the game, though? A massive, massive letdown.

Visually, the difference in detail between the MC and Hana is jarring. I understand most players don't look for the male MC to be anything more than a generic placeholder, and thankfully this game at least renders his face and stops trying to [poorly] hide his features between ever-more-creative lampshades and lightbulbs. But at the very least the quality of the rest of the renders should extend to the MC. It doesn't, and the difference in detail between when Hana is the focus of the panel and when the MC is the focus is obvious and takes you out of the art.

The "story", if you can call it that, is accelerated and much too short for what it tries to deliver. It's supposed to be a "corruption" route, but it lacks any corruption. The MC just decides to randomly force his way into her room and gropes her without her permission, and apparently that's the start and end of it. No build up, no dialogue, nothing to set the table. Not even token protest about getting sexually assaulted before she's just okay with it. To say this is bad porno writing is generous. You expect more from most gonzos.

Each of the five "chapters" is a single, short scene of a few minutes, max. There's zero choice throughout the game. Worse, there's the forced illusion of choice. You have to click through several screens of multiple highlightable objects, but only one of them progresses the story and the rest just deliver throwaway "try again" lines. The game asks, "why are you even looking at the microwave"—maybe because you fucking rendered it as a clickable object?

You essentially have 5 super brief sex scenes for each of the 5 chapters. There's no character development or character arcs. The entire game boils down to the MC forcing himself onto this poor girl until she developed Stockholm Syndrome for his dick. All in the span of a week, in game.

Then, at the very, very end, you get exposition with a little bit of backstory that tries to explain away why Hana is perfectly okay with getting groped and forced down onto the MC's dick. Would have been nice to have some of the backstory woven in throughout the game, instead of a last-minute lore dump that tries to handwave the shoddy story.

After completion, you feel a sense of disappointment. The renders are great and the LI is beautiful. If this had a better, longer (or even existent) story, it could have been a great game. Instead, it's a massive letdown and feels like wasted potential.

1.5/5.

Pros:

- Good, clean renders. Nothing groundbreaking, but the characters look good, the environments look colorful and clean.

Cons:

- MC is one step away from being a rapist. Basically starts sexually assaulting his roommate without any signals or apparent interest from her.

- There is no character buildup or really much of a story and development at all.

- Very short, a handful of short scenes.

Conclusion:

Basically the only reason to play this is if you're bored and want a quick wank over some generic short porn scenes.

This is like an animated version of a standard softcore TV show episode, but with more shown during sex scenes. There is not really any meaningful gameplay or choices, the plot is pretty barebones to the point of almost not existing, there are just the two people with barely any character traits, with some nice but generally standard visuals. I rate it 4 stars because the visuals are nice, there is nothing that gets in the way or drags the game out, and I think the presentation was pretty well-done.

This a Kinetic Novel, clicking all of 3 times to progress? You want some fast lewds, this delivers.

I should reiterate, you want quick fast lewds, this game does that. But if you want content, story, etc? Its very lacking. For a "Completed" game this makes no sense.

You get to the end after not even 2+ min if you auto skip to get 2 ads for Wishlist games that are not even out yet. This game reads more like an advertisement than an actual standalone game.

TL;DR = short game about seducing your childhood friend. Short and hot.

Story: 5/5
+ MC goes to live with his female childhood friend. At start she will be really cold toward him. But she will change her mind fast and be nice instead. Things will quickly escalate into debauchery.
+ There will be an explanation for her behaviour at the end. So I dont think there are any plot holes.
+ Nice touch of simple story.

Art and Sex stuff: 5/5
+ main heroine is sexy.
+ renders are hot.
+ Sex scenes are hot.

Gameplay: 4/5
- This is typical Kinetic Novel. You only follow story, there are no choices.
+ English is decent.
+ The game has a soundtrack. I liked it.
+ The game is quite short and simple. But sometimes there is power in simplicity.

To sum it up:
If you want some fast lewd content, then I will recommend it for you.
If you want something deeper, then this might not be ideal game.

Short, but that's not a bad thing. Quality goes over quantity. There should be more of these short novels. Renders are decent. Maybe a little bit more Sex talk, but thats just my opinion. I hope there is coming more from this Dev.

5 out of 5 stars
in a see of open world, sandbox and story VNs that spann over manv years of development it's so refreshing to see a VN that is just done in about an hours
I wish there were more such short adult novels out there with a good story and great renders.
The story was for me well written and the characters felt realistic (with only a sprinkle of porn logic), Realo felt happy in the end for them both.

hope more Devs feels inspired to make more short VNs like this here

Very good game, even though it was quite quick it was still a very good game. I would prefer if it was long and if you had more options (if it was a sandbox game) but in the the end it was still very good and i liked the story

Definitely a nice game, the girl is beautiful and her model is original, the guy is not too bad. The renders are great, maybe they went a bit overboard with the luminosity. But they are still very good.
The pace of the game is obviously fast, since it's a short game, a lot of people have complained about that, but it didn't bother me, I prefer a short game, with several sex scenes like this one, even if a bit rushed, to one that takes years and years in meaningless bullshit and also deliver the same amount of sex scenes as this one. (under the argument that it is a slow burner).
There's not as much narrative, but they explain the situation well in short conversations, so I have no complaints with that either.
As I said before the girl is beautiful, but maybe the only complaint I have, is that in almost all the sex scenes, she sticks out her tongue, to many it may seem sexy, but the truth to me it seems stupid, in real life you don't stick out your tongue during the whole sex act, you would end up with a totally dry mouth. I think we owe that fashion to the japanese, but it's really stupid in my opinion, crossing your eyes a little is fine.
Anyway, it's just personal taste... The game is short but very good. Congratulations to the developer studio.

>- The Great [+2]
- The graphics and character model for the LI are very pretty.

>- The Decent [+1]
- Text roll back was automatically activated.
- The game has music and it seems picked out for each scene specifically.

>- The Middling [=0]
- The spelling is mostly okay, as is the grammar.
- I like when a game is released completed, but read on, you will see why.

>- The Mediocre [-1]
- There is no animation to be had, just flipbook style between 2 stills.
- This "game" is tagged as a VN when the only choice is MCs name.

>- The Terrible [-2]
- The pacing is god awful, it goes from 'do not come into my room!' to 'so glad he came into my room and tried to finger me while I was doing schoolwork' without ANY steps in between.
- The story is bad, after he tried to finger her, next 'stage' he goes to is bullying her in her own apartment by taking the remote and kicking it under the TV. Then he takes his dick out and when she's on her knees picking up the remote he skewers her head on his dick. THEN he says 'you don't like it, say the word' when her mouth is obviously full. Again, no progression between trying to finger and forcefully putting his dick in her mouth.
- The time scale is 10-ish minutes long and somehow you go from not being welcome in her room > groping and trying to finger > forced blowjob > deflowering > her initiating sexual activity > her bribing you with sex to stay because she can't live without you after a week. No I didn't skip a step for the sake of brevity, that's the whole "game".
- Different stories take different quantities of time to tell, if the design is a 10 minute kinetic novel, this was too big of a story to fit and so all build up was removed, which kind of kills the feel. If the seduction, domination and eventual voluntary subjugation of your roommate was the story you had to tell, it shouldn't have been kinetic nor 10 minutes. I don't know in which direction this mistake was made, but either way it leads to a very unsatisfying product.


>- Final rating: -6, which is subtracted from the expected baseline 6/10 game. Thus, I feel generous giving it 1 star, in my mind it deserves none.

>- Conclusion: Great graphics, everything else is a differing level of bad, but I can hardly call it a waste of time since it takes so little of it. If you just want pretty pictures of a pretty girl taking a dick, then yeah, you may rate this different. Please remember reviews are subjective and what matters to me in a game may not matter to you.
