RPGM - Sadie Gets a Life [v0.2.3] [Middle Tier Games]

The five stars might be a bit of an exaggeration, as the game's combat isn't particularly special (I mean, it's better than RPGM base fare, but only by one step). The sex scenes aren't particularly amazing art, either (I mean, it is generated).

But the writing is amazing and second to none. And while I usually tend towards fucked over female protagonists who get into some distressing situations, which is a mold this game's protagonist, Sadie, most assuredly doesn't fit, she is exceptionally well realised in her own right (that there is no disconnect between the Very Powerful Protagonist having to Work As a Barmaid and Get Groped as is usually the case helps with immersion, too).

The game has a gradual 'Corruption' (really the wrong term, but whatever) path that the narrative nudges the player towards without forcing things. And I found it rather remarkable I ended up naturally drifting towards this slow corruption from the player's PoV, rather than acting against it to get scenes. Avoiding scenes at the start, but the narrative supporting a more aggressive sexuality later on.

Other characters are just as well realised, and so is the world itself, with a remarkable attention to detail and enjoyable sense of humour that never actually goes overboard.

It isn't a perfect game. Neither gameplay nor art can be considered the top of the heap. But ultimately, what counts isn't what groundbreaking features a game has, but how much the player enjoys a game, regardless of how innovative it may or may not be.

And I happen to enjoy this game a very great deal indeed.

Story was kinda funny but not a standout. Porn scenes were pretty good for AI art. Unfortunately, it's more grind than it is game or porn. Every enemy is tanky and they throw a lot of them at you before you can progress. Spent two hours and got one scene out of it.

Game has heart and soul, which is more then most games have.

Is the premise something new and amazing? No. The gameplay? No. The plot? No.

So why did I give it 5 stars then?

Well, its simple. Lets be real for a moment - you do not play porn games for great story, amazing gameplay or fresh and unique takes on w/e.

You are here for the erotic content.
The erotic content so far is good with a humerous twist on it - with the humour not being overbearing and leaving the writing space to explore not just humerous scenes, but tonally different ones as well.

And yes, gameplay, story etc do matter, but always through the lense of this being an adult game.

And this is where this game is shining. It knows it uses a silly and overdone premise with truck-kun... but it puts it into an erotic context and uses the isekai trope mostly to save on long and boring exposition you would otherwise have to slog through.

And that is a pretty good reason for a porn game to use a trope.

Typical rpg nsfw game with a terble opening of a maze full of repeat fihts with goblins wher you spam 1 button and have no way to skip it because escape that would normaly let you pass an enemy is just not doing that, so have funn in a maze of bordom.
