Ren'Py - Sexbot Restoration 2124 [v0.14.1] [squirrel24]

Sexbot Restoration 2124 [v0.14.0]

Pros:
+ Gameplay is very fun for those who like sim/management games
+ Gameplay loop is engaging and has enough to keep you on your toes at times
+ Character models are mostly decent
+ Renders are okay but not the main thing

Cons:
- Not very much in terms of story yet
- Gameplay loop may not be for everyone
- Might be difficult at the start when learning the ins and outs

As an adult game, the content is lacking for now besides renders throughout the game that you can click to enlarge, but nothing too special. That being said, I've been playing for hours and hours the last few days and I find it pretty addicting. Then again, I'm the kind of person that can play a sim/management game for 24 hours straight haha...

The game itself provides you with decent challenges and systems to upgrade, many different ways to make money and fulfill requests.

For a game that's still in development, I feel it's very fun and worth checking out if you like this kind of gameplay! If you're looking for a quick fap or something, look elsewhere.

Overall Rating: 9/10

For an alpha, it's a good game. In my opinion, maybe one of the best in this site. Yes, it lacks sexy pics & animations, there's not much story, the UI should get some improvements, etc. But the core is great, and if you enjoy time/resource management games, this one is a must play for sure. Especially, if for you the sexy part is a plus and not the main thing.

Terrible. The game doesn't have a tutorial and it's super confusing to start with. If you make a game that requires you to search for information on related websites and makes you click on everything to understand how it works, you're making a mistake right from the start, I'm not even going to waste any more time with this game.

A good management game still in development, a little spare on the sex scenes for now but with a variety of interesting subsystems and an interesting time/money management aspect.
Definitely recommend, even if still in alpha.

I played v 0.11.2

This game has an amusing premise and engaging gameplay loop, but the rest of the execution is sadly lacking. The art is lackluster, the writing is perfunctory, and the UI is frustrating.

good trainer with long-term quests, diferent stats. Wish to see more content soon. I've played many games like that one, but this is one of the besl, like ero dungeons. Thank you, and sucsess in development.

Initially, I was skeptical. The layout was different from what I was used to, and I wasn't sure I'd like it. Three hours after I was supposed to be in bed, I no longer have doubts.

The game is everything it advertises. You repair sexbots. Manage a shop, and maybe even find love. With a real person, not one of your plastic playtoys.

I eagerly look forward to future updates.

This game is great i love this game. I hope this game will develop to a better ui and new bots, scenes, scenarios, and sex scenes, missions, sometimes the psychocore might a bit little annoying to maintain at 100 percent due to giving high roles in fully busy activities given to the bot but great game.

if you played the original chob shop you wil LOVE this one even withou mods.

Be aware that this game isnt all about fucking but if you like a future setting where you build bots from scrap and make a fortune with them than thats your game!

There is currently only one thing that I really don't like about this game:
Unfortunately, the storyline is punishing you for being efficient.

As a Doctor of Business Administration I am not able to simply enjoy such games like a normal person that can actually experience happiness and satisfaction. Therefore, naturally, I calculated the most efficient approach to pay the $500,000. However, if you do that, you have an increased focus on paying the amount back quite quickly to avoid a lot of interests. This approach, unfortunately, only allows you to moderately increase your income.

If you then automatically start the mobster quest row with only a moderate income, it is quite challenging to fullfil the requests in time and also build up your business. Once the mobster quest row is then completed you suddenly have to provide two "grade b" bots in the following quest and experience daily AP reductions. I wasn't able to collect the necessary $450.000 before Ruthie was beaten up again.

If I would have known that it is not the right approach to be efficient in the first phase of the game, I would have paid the thugs a very small interst for a >very long< time since this would have provided me with the opportunity to build up my income in order to beat the following quests.

In short: I don't like when a management game is punishing you for good management. While the game is still overall quite enjoyable I grant four stars.

Edit:
If future versions alter the named issue I will change my review to five stars since I would love to see this game with an excellent rating.

this review is for [v0.8.0]
first of all this game is the perfect building/training game.
the premise is simple; you rent a sexbot shop and work your way up.
it has ircredible depth in building and training the bots and a lot to do with them, the shop and your character. very interesting game and fun to play.

while I gave the game a 5/5 stars rating, I have to say the visuals are not good enough for this rating and I really hope the dev will improve on them in a later version. Mostly because a game like this kinda needs some great visuals to be more immersive (music/sound would help too but having no music is ok in this type of game, just have spotify in the backround and you are ok.) and to reward the player otherwise there is no really motivation to progress futher into the game/story.

Pretty good adaptation of DSCS, kept the same UI and expanded on existing game
Obviously storyline is still developing , but interested in seeing how this goes.
Game offers multiple opportunities for development, keen to see how this goes.

5/5

I really liked DSCS! This one is just as good! Loved some of the mods for DSCS, but others made it very difficult and, to me, lessened the enjoyment of playing the game. This one, so far, seems to have few mods, but with the extras added to the basic game, it's really fun to play. Looking forward to any additional quests and extras added in the future! Thanks for a great game!

So far, this is a serviceable management game. Making money, paying off your debt, building your team selling off your sluts... It works pretty well.
There are places for some pretty neat scenes to go.
They aren't there yet.
But you know... Shows promise.

V0.7.2

liking this so far. pretty much same as the game it copies and a long way from competing with megabrothel ( not the real name but rules is rules. you know which one i mean) or jacks (pre-mod fiddling and ultimately ruining the original game by making a convoluted mess) which are pretty much all the competition with brothel royalty being an age between updates. a fairly popular one here has lost the plot with it's post first versions so.....
there may be more but none standout as well for me.

mechanics seem fine but visuals could be much better. some decent scenes to set it apart from jack's terrible stock and something better than the static training scenes that megabrothel has will raise it up for sure.
at the moment it is like an early version of rodent labs 2 before that got too anal retentive for me.

one thing this game does well is it does not waste the play loop. plenty of diversity from the start and it is easy to settle into some kind of rhythm.
workout then work morning, tinker until last 3 AP then rest afternoon, tinker/stabilise evening and plunder the dump at night, unless i have full bots and plenty to tinker then i will do that instead.
working well for me so far. not the fastest way but mood and profits are up.

even with more AP and bots doing the work there is no wasted loop as even resting has benefit. not sure i seen a play loop of this size and growing that has zero wasted time. it's a thing of beauty

one day we will finally have a brothel type game with a good play loop, decent enough art you want to lick your screen hoping it magically turns scratch n sniff, and a plot/storyline you will enjoy reading and will have you occupying that other hand NOT currently masturbating your mouse.

so far one game is getting close for me but many have started and completed is very rare. like rocking horse poo rare.
likeable completed are ...well i'm off to hunt a unicorn....

Playing 0.7.2

This is a management game. If you don't have a passion for slow & steady increases and watching your business improve through your effort... this isn't the game for you.

If you like that, then this is awesome! Taking over a dead project, Squirrel (the dev) has polished a lot of the rough edges and smoothed a lot of the problems out of the original game. There is a solid foundation to build on here, with variable art, unique quirks and skills for girls, roles for all your androids to fill, business management, and even some developing storyline and plot. And yes, there is sex... a fair bit of it actually.

What is it missing? Just more. More story, more girls, more art, more parts and pieces, more ways that those parts and pieces fit together. More changes to develop your business and make your MC triumph over adversity. And the only way we're going to get more is for the Dev to keep working, and for the player to keep engaging.

Squirrel building upon an already fun game. It's probably not for everyone, but I still think it's worth a play if you are on the fence. There are many bot's that can be added along with the decent amount of starting ones. Appreciate the work and looking forward to more!
