    I consider this AVN a huge ebook (that you can shape your character personality via multiple choices). You will not find a load of adult scenes here; when there are, you will see just a few renders without animation. It's a psychological horror/drama mixed with philosophy in a post-apocalypse world, not made because of nukes but a war between the working class and rich people resulting in the return of slavery, anarchy (no laws, no government, no police), and "The Wall".

    This is one of my earliest favourite games and I still think it's one of the best VNs. The story carries you away, characters are well defined and, in general, tri-dimensional - almost all characters present you different aspects of their personality, some of which may attract you , while others repel you. It gives you opportunities to choose your path in a way that's both well rooted in the story, and in the player's preferences and the character they want to roleplay. Because Blake - the MC - will also feel different according to how you choose to roleplay his part.

    My only critique, which I don't count as enough of a negative point to deserve removing a star, is that for such a long game, the replayability factor is relative - there's enough different paths and choices in general to deserve a replay, but to do so would require a truly committed player, who didn't mind repeating large chunks of the story in order to explore different variants of certain days. The official walkthrough is almost mandatory if you want to be "in charge".

    My suggestion to @YedaGames would be that, in the future, they considered adding a simple cheat system, where you could unlock more scenes in the course of one playthrough, even across main and secondary routes... I'd still recommend a clean playthrough to fully enjoy the story.

    I like what the Dev is trying to do and games with this set of tags are rare, so you'll have a lot of goodwill from the start, but...

    - choices/ paths are largely arbitrary. You get "Go there. Or there." with no indication what that choice entails, making it meaningless without a walkthrough.

    - if you'd print this, it'd probably put Wheel of Time to shame. Unfortunately it is verbose for no reason. There is very little happening and what does is rarely interesting outside the context of the kinks. The story is paperthin and the characters rarely have any depth outside of their (unexplained) depravities.

    All in all, it feels not respectful of your time and the word salad gets worse with every update. I'd dread trying to play this from the start. Unfortunately, skipping through it won't give you much either, since scenes are scattered and few and rarely worth it.

    Meh.

    "I've been playing this game since version 0.12, exclusively following the Melinda and Iris routes. The story development is impressive, with a well-balanced approach to the femdom concept and sissification, ensuring it doesn't feel overly forced. The renders are generally good, and most of the girls have distinct characteristics and choices. I also appreciate the soundtrack, which effectively signals when something significant is about to happen."

    I wrote this review to dedicate to the developer, hoping it might cheer him up a bit. Wishing you good luck and good health

    Giving Shattered a 4 star review, but not for typical reasons.

    I tried to like the game, but it had some -very- specific kinks, and a path for the MC that was essentially carved in stone (at least that I could tell playing partway through Act 5). I had thought I could resist being dommed and keep the MC a male, but sadly this wasn't to be from what I saw. He is never given the option to change course and start acting like a male again once the story pushes him out of it.

    The game directly caters to crossdressing males, sissies, femdom, gay sex, some BDSM, and so forth. Trying to play the straight route gave me 2 sex scenes (one was a dream I think), though there may have been more later - I just couldn't continue playing to see if that was the case.

    If the aforementioned kinks are your thing, the game is right up your alley. Decent enough renders, very verbose writing (not many errors), and a cast you can play around with.

    Just wasn't my thing, so I'm taking it at face value that it is going to be someone else's, was well made, and can be enjoyed by a specific crowd. If straight sex with good looking love interests is your thing (primarily girls), and playing a straight male or female character is mandatory, definitely look elsewhere.

    A fairly decent game that is largely ruined by being unbelievably over written. A writing editor would do wonders here. Look at the most recent update (0.21) 140k words, 620 images. An average 300 page novel has roughly 90k words... Some other minor complaints. In a choice based narrative being routinely TOLD how you feel regardless of your choices comes across as condescending. I think a lot of this comes down to the narrative storytelling choice. You are TOLD not SHOWN. The vast majority of the scenes serve zero impact. That being said there is a decent story with good imagery just quite poorly told in my opinion.

    This game is a piece of art! The story is good, Blake is perfect... You have various routes you can follow, all of then well writen. The last version renders are perfect. It's the best adult game i ever played. Thanks to the developer!!!

    One of the best if not the best gay and sissification game I've seen on this site. I usually hate when people jump into a thread and claim that isn't for them or otherwise complain about it, but on a review I think it's more relevant, the entire point is the reviewer's experience and observations.

    Personally, I'm not a fan of either. I'd still have given this 5 stars though for the content, because the content is purely subjective preference, and I don't think it's fair to remove stars for not liking the content--the question is how well is it executed?

    Here there is loads of content, a deep dive, plenty of variation and a wide cast.

    What I didn't like is while there was plenty of stuff, and there were plenty of routes, there wasn't really much variation in routes. I'm not a stickler for consent in video games, the setting and story are designed with things being forced on the MC. But within those routes some variation, at least more variation, would have been preferable in my eyes, and that's where I knock the star off.

    Make no mistake though, if you happen to love the specific kinks and scenario, again mostly cross dressing, sissification, gay content, overall femdom in that vein, then this is a treasure trove of a game for you. I'd always wondered why more games did not take inspiration and influence from it.

    Goods -
    Interesting world build
    Good art where the transitioning MC doesn’t immediately look like a hot supermodel. Helps with immersion imo.
    Writing skill is better than average.

    So close to being a really good game for this genre.

    So why only two stars?

    The Primary Bad -
    It’s ridiculously long-winded to the point readers can simply lose interest. So much of the writing is inner-thoughts of the MC about the most mundane things that don’t really help the story along, nor does it help display the depth of any of the characters (unless you just want to know the MC spends a stupid amount of time stressing over unimportant things).

    The Secondary Bad -
    The relationships with other characters never made sense to me. The love affair with the first guy you meet (don’t remember many names as I eventually couldn’t stand reading anymore and just started click-hunting for scenes) didn’t feel natural at all. After reading all of that drivel, I thought perhaps I missed some important scene which showed how I might’ve missed how I had arrived there, but it wasn’t the case. It was the same for many of the other relationships. You’d make a selection and it would lead you down a path that wasn’t remotely your intention when making that choice. I’m not talking about external factors driving that result; I’m talking about your own resulting feelings due to that choice.

    The developer has writing talent, that’s clear. However, the structure just isn’t there. If the intent was to make a novel rather than a game, I’m just not invested in the characters, nor has the author made me see the resulting scenes through the eyes of the various characters. If the intent was to make a game, the result is even worse.

    I know a lot of people have rated this game very highly, and on my first play through a few years ago, I was really impressed as well. But over time, it’s gotten much worse, and much more tedious.

    Easily the best sissification /corruption VN I've ever seen. IT IS MASSIVE! Multiple, multiple paths (only downside is that it can be way too easy to get locked in a certain path or to miss something without an opportunity to course correct).

    The writing and editing are top notch. The renders are amazing. Add that the MC sort of develops a fetish for hosiery hits me right in the center.

    Spend the time to DL all the parts and take a few months to play all the routes. Make sure you get the walk through as well, it is a requirement.

    Good product, really good.
    More like a graphic interactive novel.
    Graphically, psychologically, according to the scenario, the development of events is done very well. There are subsidences in the narrative, not too much variability, but these issues are not critical.
    My personal rating, a grumpy and rarely highly appreciative person, is 8 out of 10.

    None of these fetishes interest me but because it was clear on page 1 that everything is optional I decided to try it out.

    The renders are nice, the Li's are attractive and the sex scenes are good.

    The story and writing are excellent and the pacing is perfect. The characters are real and enjoyable.

    You have to pick paths and make the right choices and the walk-through is perfect for navigating that. Most of the choices were instinctual but I would have made some mistakes without it. All fetishes and sex scenes are optional if you make the right choices.

    I stopped at the end of ACT VI but I greatly enjoyed the visual novel. This is the first game that I've played that handled the Feminisation of the MC really well. Since these kinks don't interest me I will not follow it but in the future I will keep an out out for the creators next work to see if it is more along my lines.

    Maybe a little bit too much [Blake thinks this and considers that in is mind and feels this or that...and makes sarcastic coments] here and there, I do usually prefer that "don't tell it - show it" thing. And some parts of the story are a bit lengthy. And in order to really find every path, you need a walkthrough. Because you easily could lock some paths with one single wrong answer.

    But besides this, this VN is one of the best sissification/feminization VN ever made. And by far the best one here on f95zone. I really like that MC is not just suddenly a mindless sissy craving for sex , just after one hypno session - but has some depth. And feels "real" in his behavior somehow. I also like that he (at least in some paths) Blake still likes to stay at least partially male - but with a big feminine side. That just feels so natural. Also the other characters have "live" and are not just paper cuts and stereotypes. Plus most other storyline elements in the vn are not just a deus ex machina thing to show porn, they just make sense. Really great story writing.

    Good, Blake maybe could be more often be locked or "forced" (in a sensual way) in rubber/latex dresses or catsuits/gimpsuits (or other costumes) and chastity by someone at least in some paths that are a little D/s and BDSM directed, there maybe could be a little more.. playful public humiliation in some paths, but that is just my personal taste. If the author prefers a more vanilla style on those chars, that is totally fine too :)
    Would give that vn 6 out of 5 stars if that was possible, because this one really deserves.

    Super expansive and amazingly well-written, this game is a real gem and features a vast variety of fetishes, so there really is something for (almost) everyone in there. Loved the storyline, the characters and the worldbuilding, really worth your time and there's lot of variations to the routes.

    Oh this game...

    This game has great visuals and ticks most of my boxes kink-wise but my mind slides off of it every time I play. I recently discovered that there's a (absurdly large) walkthrough that makes it clear that there are distinct paths through the game. This came as a bit of a revelation as, despite playing through the game 3 or 4 times, I have never felt that I had any control over my character or the choices they were making. One time I'd play through and be a straight guy, then I'd play through and become a transgirl, then an out-and-out sissy. It all seemed both completely random and utterly weightless as there was no real emotion to any of the story beats.

    The problem is that the choices are buried in hundreds of pages and dozens of characters, none of which really sticks in the mind. There's also so much content here that the narrative just continues on and on with no shape or focus. Rather than telling a story, there's this weird churn where characters disappear, reappear, hate you, love you, and it all feels overwhelming and unengaging.

    I salute the dev's prolific writing ability and the fact that updates come relatively often but if it turned out that this game was based upon an AI churning out dialogue at random, I would not be in the least bit surprised. It's like a really-well produced and incredibly long visual novel written by alien who has never actually encountered a story.

    fucc this game is insane !
    so many kinks, so many secret scenes & easter eggs, the walkthrough alone is 500 pages
    exceptional writing & memorable characters
    the way your choices influence the mc's development and 'inner voice' is hugely sophisticated
    heaps of fetishes - you can play as straight (femdom), bi or gay, as a cis sissy or a trans girl
    all of the characters are very different from each other, both aesthetically and personality wise, with different backstories, and their connections between each other are also multilayered
    there's a lot going on, and at first it can take a while to see how the choice system makes sense, but once you've gotten into it it's a very rewarding game

    This game is exactly what I had been looking for and didn't know it. If you are interested in the world of being a sub/sissy this is a really erotic adventure with a lot of content. I can't wait to see how far this goes.

    One of the best games out there. Everything is the best.
    The amount of work that went into this game is next level.
    Multiple routes. My only complaint being , there should be a walkthrough mod.
    Hope that you guys support this game on patreon and complete this story.

    Definitely one of the best games not only in its genre but in the entire category of 18+ games. To rate less than 5 would be unfair, at least because of the huge work that the author has already done.
    This game includes both an interesting character story and her non-linear passage with a huge number of RPG options. A lot of fetishes for every taste. Dozens of interesting characters with their own history with which you can interact as you like.
    Undoubtedly the game is worth your attention and I will be looking forward to new updates
