Ren'Py - Completed - S.H.E.L.T.E.R. - An Apocalyptic Tale [v1.0] [Winterlook]

Ehhh i mean you probably have seen how these games play out. There are a variety of things to do in the sandbox, and your choices matter all the way to the end in a fallout style ending card type thing, but unless you are really invested in the characters (kinda hard to, the characters kinda just throw themselves into the MC and even made him their mayor) probably won't matter to you that much.

I think it came down to the overall presentation and structure of the game. Nowadays Renpy games like these have clean ui and plenty of visual charm to slice through the usual monotony of clicking through the Nth incest fake dating sim sandbox game. This game, not so much, it kinda just looks barebones and the ui elements and choice boxes feels like ive seen them a billion times. Speaking of tropes ive seen a billion times-

Yeah i mean the game suffers from severe magical dick energy. There kinda is no corruption process to speak of inside the family which is disappointing, like the mom just wants to fuck her son right after a movie date and some wine. Im not opposed to games like these having literally no grind but at the least i woulda liked a little more build up to it.

The game itself doesnt take that long to beat though (beat it in one sitting). Most of it is bloated with the food can grind that you can skip using a cheat mod, and repeatedly fucking your family so they get pregnant. The sandbox itself reflects this size as well, theres not toooooooo many things to do around your family's house, with only a few "house" H events outside of peeking at your mom and sisters in the bath. I was initially disappointed but after the sandbox opened up a bit more, i could understand why. There was a lot more characters OTHER than the family in the house, with their OWN sandbox events, and yeah i did interact with them and made them pregnant, so they're an alright addition even if a part of me feels sad that because of that the family don't get a lot more scenes in the house.

The good things that are there are good though. It serves alright as jerk off material, and kinda mid as a game. If you're into harems and pregnancy and pregnant sex, then you're in luck, cause you could put a baby in literally everybody.

I think i really would have liked a lot more focus on the family in this one, maybe an actual home map with schedules and events you stumble into depending the time of day, just like you find in other sandbox "house" incest games? But i suppose the system that the game takes is a lot more linear and "clean" than the one i mentioned.

Character design is hot, if you just glaze, skip over all of the game i mean you'll probably have an alright time, not really anything special though.

Good post apocalyptic sandbox story, with an entertaining three acts.

Gameplay: 4/5
I'm a fan of sandboxes. This one does a good job of avoiding being grindy within a playthrough, however most choices are locked in, so you'll have to play multiple times to see most of the content. Following the harem + corruption choices (which looks like it covers most of the content for a single playthrough) gets you about half of the gallery unlocked. Would've been interesting to be able to change the job assignment within a run.

Visuals: 4/5
There is a solid amount of work put in, though the quality has some variance which seems common with this style. One thing that stands out, and is common with similar art styles, is what seems like a quality difference between the portraits and the scenes.

Writing: 4/5
The story overall is entertaining, and the three act structure suits it well. Unfortunately the dialogue doesn't feel engaging, and skipping/click-spamming to get through was common.

short, to the point, good art.
if even a bit inconsistent, they may have switch artist midway.
Not the best in slow corruption or slow progress in any way, and thats good. Every day you could do something, mostly, i just wish it informs whenever you impregnate someone so you dont have to wait and "waste" time.

I was going to rate it mediocre because I went romance but oh boy did I miss out on a lot.

This game has to be played multiple times to get the "better" scenes. Game play wise, I don't like that, but I can appreciate that the routes are very different.

Characters feel very different (At least on romance) the girls preferring different kinks and willingness to do stuff.

The biggest negative is that the Gallery is just a CG viewer. So if you want to see the scenes properly you need to get a save, unless some generous soul makes a mod

The setting is reminiscent of works like Fallout, but with a more intimate feel and focused on human drama with connections to the adult genre. A great mix. The characters are well developed, with distinct personalities and arcs that evolve in an interesting way. More and more characters emerge, thus improving the interest.

Really enjoyed this one, played last year and decided to play it again to give a better review!

You play as either the middle son of a family or a guy from a group of friends and you survived in a bunker for some time now its time to leave and see how the world is, while doing that you get to know more people and decide whats next for you and your crew.

while in this journey you can make people fall in love with you or corrupt them to be yours.

I love post apocalyptic theme games (like Fallout) and I enjoyed a lot playing this one, the art is really good and theres a good option of things to do.

would love some VA action and some after story content but still great game with enjoyable even though simple gameplay and story!

Also I loved all of the heroines and It was really cool managing the camp! would love to see more of that feature.

an incomparable work in several aspects that is almost scary, a game that gives you freedom of choice at the same time that each one of them has a real consequence, not just an extra dialogue like most current games, in addition to addressing the apolypse theme well and having very interesting and likable characters. Masterpiece

Within my top 5 corruption games on F95. It deserves your time.

I love the art. The corruption does not break immersion. There is not too much grinding. The main characters are fleshed out with different personalities, bringing different kinks and flavour to the table. The story is an original twist on a well-explored universe in the videogame universe. My only disappointment was how rush the ending was. I would suggest if the creator is open-minded to let some people from the community flesh out the final product, maybe with a mod or something, because, although it is already great, this game could be exceptional.

I really like the concept and art style, but I can't finish this game. The story is so unbelievably disjointed that nothing makes sense. Characters will say things that don't match up with the current situation. Only reason this gets a two is because of the character art and story concept.

Great game! All the girls are awesome and super hot! Game is fun to play, and have nice diferent routes, depending of what you like most
Really wish the lewd scenes were animated, it would make this game a 5 star

The first time I played this game, I didn't make it through but I did make it back to beat it completely and I'm glad I did! I wasn't initially a big fan of the art style but I felt it grew on me and I loved the stories and different characters and how you get to interact with them and knock up the various members of your harem!

Best game I ever played!

Loved the incest buildup, the choices we had during it all, alongwith the pregancny elements to it all.
Keep pumping out more gems like this mate, you've dug gold here!

Again, Best game I ever played!

Great art. Fun atmosphere (very biased FO enjoyer). Plenty of cute gals to meet. Honestly the only complaint I have is there isn't more. Like, I just want there to be more and more to explore. Also maybe more of the raider route.

>Story is somewhat decent, I like the idea of shelter but end game comes too quick.
>Originality is on point. Images and the paths you take is really great.
>Amount of content somewaht good for its caliber. 4/5

It is a working and completed game, but that's kind of it i would say.

The game play changes a few times, but generally is just not very inspiring. A lot of the story choices feel like they don't really matter.

The story is fine, the original shelter idea really isn't a big part of it as the settlement takes up most of the game. And honestly it's more interesting.

The characters are decent but don't get developed much. 2 of the original 3 I didn't even end up sleeping with because I couldn't enter their room.

The porn is pretty boring. The art style is mediocre imo, but that's taste. The writing isn't that hot though and it's just one static image. Worse the corruption isn't actually corruption. It's just instant drugging that turns otherwise interesting characters into brainless sluts. Incredibly lazy.

Should you play it? Well, it's a working and completed game, so if you have nothing else to play. sure. 3/5

One of the best non-VN games here. It won't move you to tears or change your life, but:

• Great original art
• Characters with personality
• Great scenes
• No grind
• Just enough sandbox to be a sandbox
• Love/corrupt paths with entirely different arcs - well worth playing both

If the art/tags don't repel you, stop considering and play it.

One of the better lewd games, if you are looking for porn focused fallout game, this might bw the best you can get

Original artstyle
Characters are different from each other
Basic love and corruption mechanics
Pregnacy

Game is a sandbox
There is a ending even couple of them

Great game

Cons: not always clear relation grind
Not every character have corruption route
Y-shield and food mechanic is annoying

It's a very good game based on Fallout / other post-apocalyptic desert media. All the characters are super attractive and enjoyable, and the maledom scenes are probably one of the best in the genre. Not a lot of games have pure maledom tbh, so this is nice.

Fun parody of Fallout and is a good h-game overall, it has hot scenes, art is good, characters also good, good story and variety of options. Decent game. 5/5. Highly recommend. It's the simple formula well done.

Story 4/5
This just supprised me alot, not so much the story which is still pretty good but the choices in this one is above soooo many other games.

You start out with your family, mother, fater, 2 sisters and your given a choice to pick one of them to have a relationship with or all of them or none of them, in my first go at the game i went for the red head youngest sister and after some time you take the white haired military sister along to go outside and visist the town MC has been working with, thats where she meets the sheriff which apparently is an old friend of hers and they are apprently friends with benefits so your asked to leave so they can have some fun together.

I found it a little weird since i was thinking what if i had picked the military sister to start with, so i tried a fast restart picked her and when we got to the town her old friend still wanted to have sex with MCs sister but she turned her down since she was testing out being in a relationship with MC, so yeah choices really does matter in this one and it does change story aspects in a pretty big way which is just damn nice to see.

On a side note you do have the option to leave with the sister aka turn the sheriff down or you can let them have fun alone or be in a 3-some with them.

So yeah choices are really well made in this one and your free to turn down or fuck whoever you want.

As for the rest of the game its pretty stright forward, its an easy sandbox that dosent have all that much of a grind to it which is nice, theres kinda some management stuff but not really since its very limited since upgrades comes a pretty set order so you dont really have much of a choice on what to build.

Theres quite a few holes in the story where it feels a bit stupid and weird, i cant get the military sister to work for the settelment or be MCs guard which feels quite idiotic but whats even worse is that MC has a military android that he never fucking uses, it just stays in the bunker looking into the wall....i mean why even put it in game if its not beinig put to use, it should be following MC around every damn second hes not in the bunker and all you can put her to work as is a freaking maid? or mechanic? what?

And yes the ending is extremly rushed, i barely got the brothel build and never saw any of the girls giving birth to MCs kids other then the sister, granted you might be able to see it if you just sit a click skip day for a long time but i dident really care to test that out.
You dont see any of the kids growing up either so it really failed alot by cutting everything way to short.

Maybe its more of a 3 star game due to the ending being rushed, it had potential to be a really good and fun game but it would have to be 2-3 times bigger atleast with better management system and more exploring and so on.

Girls 2/5
The art is proberly not for everyone, i dont know why this type of art always has to have big tits, to me they just look ugly as fuck and would have liked too see some smols as well, but theres just no real diversity in builds.

Sex scenes 2/5
Game isent animated which lowers the value alot and the sex scenes arent really the best, maybe its due to me not having a big tit fetish that i find them boring and bad.

Music 3/5
Pretty average background stuff, a little above average but not by much.

Choices 5/5
Its nice to see games where choices matters and makes a diffrense, in this one you have the freedom to fuck whoever you like or just say no and it works perfectly.

Story and choices are the two most importen aspect in a game for me so i had to give this 4 stars even though the girls wasent in my taste and the story was cut really short, but ii still enjoyed what little is there.
