VN - Ren'Py - SAAT - Substance Abuse Awareness Training [v0.5.0] [The Dark Moonshine]

A Risqué, Irreverent Delight

At first glance, this visual novel may seem deceptively simple—with only one on-screen character and brief, tongue-in-cheek sex scenes—but don’t be fooled. It makes up for its minimalism with a wild sense of humor, a daring narrative, and a striking 3D art style that breaks away from typical cell-shaded visuals.

Bold Style & Sharp Writing
Every frame bursts with personality, thanks to the unique character design and playful visuals. The writing is both original and irreverent, with the humor ramping up as our heroine finds herself hilariously overwhelmed. Expect witty banter and mischievous twists that keep the ride entertaining.

Minor Quirks, Major Charm
The big, quirky font perfectly complements the offbeat vibe, even though the integrated text box and a few stray typos are minor distractions. Overall, the game runs smoothly, with only an occasional error screen near the end.

If you enjoy visual novels that mix seductive storytelling with subversive humor, this game is a must-play. Its bold, original take on a familiar premise delivers a wild, unforgettable ride that only gets funnier as the stakes rise. Enjoy the romp!

First the not-so-great: The one girl in the preview images is the only on-screen character, the whole game is very one-note, and sex scenes are very short, fairly lame, in part due to the first person POV style, and fairly infrequent for such a silly titty-fest.

So why did I give it five stars? Because it's sexy, funny, and original, both in terms of art and writing. It's just a very fun little game, and I recommend anyone try it out. If you're not immediately amused, wait a bit. It gets funnier as the girl gets wasted.

Also of note: I like the big, silly font which is perfect for this game. However, the text box is part of the image rather than a separate thing, so you can't hide it. There are a few typos and such, but they're not common. The game is also bug free, aside from one error screen that sometimes shows up near the end. You can play through it.

PLEASE DO NOT USE DRUGS AND PLEASE DRINK ONLY IF YOU ARE OF AGE AND PLEASE DRINK RESPONSIBLY.

This game definitely has a unique premise as you corrupt what appears to be a faithful, respectable and well-liked girl in your college.

Reviewing v0.4.0

Pros:

• I don't know what it is, but the models and visuals are unique and I really like them
• There are two routes to play through as of now
• The story is really interesting and actually somewhat realistic
• Heavy amount of dialogue but I personally got invested in the plot lol
• Around an hour to complete if you read and take your time

Cons:

• Heavy amount of dialogue which can be off-putting for some
• No gallery
• Linear story with no real decision-making that will skew results
• Heavy usage of drugs/alcohol which can be off-putting for some, but hey that's the game you should know that

I AM BY NO MEANS SUPPORTING THE USAGE OF DRUGS AND BY NO MEANS SUPPORTING DRINKING IRRESPONSIBLY.


Give this game a go. The models are really unique and I got invested fast. I'll wait for a few more updates to come to see how far the game goes.

For a game that has pretty much just started getting made (despite the v0.4.0 numbering this is only the 2nd release), what has been done so far is pretty good, with the art in particular deserving a nod. The fact that there aren't many VNs with this premise helps to make it stand out too. All in all, if the premise intrigues you then I definitely recommend that you check it out

Pretty much excels in everything for a short game. BUT there is very very little actual sex in game right now, that 2 frames of cowgirl NEED to extend. The best part is the dialogues, it mimics perfectly a D* person, and she talks dirty the way i like during sex.

Writing: 7/10
Imagery: 6/10
Gameplay: 5/10
Kinks: 6/10
Overall: 6/10

Drugs are bad, mmm'k?

Feels like this is just another character from the mesmerized game the same creator is still working on, but the art style was taken in a vastly different direction. Instead of the cell shaded look, this is more common 3D rendered stuff.

Story-wise this is pretty much the same stuff you'd find in mesmerized, tricking a gullible blond into drinking and taking substances that will make her susceptible to sexual favors veiled as helpful actions. Sound familiar? Yep.

Anyways, if you like jerking your gerkin to dumb girls being taken advantage of rather easily, you've come to the right place. However I'm not big into using drugs to accomplish this goal, more into just using cunning and trickery to turn the tides of sexual fun times. But I will say that this new art style fits the concept of the story better, the girl has a pretty nice rack on her, and has that appealing tan line where her breasts are far whiter than her neck and face. Pretty hot.
