VN - Ren'Py - Completed - Sorcery of Lust [Epilogue] [DignifiedPerversion]

Would give this a 2 star but don't want to ruin the score for everyone else just because I didn't like one thing and didn't finish the game. I didn't finish it for one reason. The mc looks like an ogre with all that hair. It looks so bad that I just could not finish it. I don't mind some hair on an mc but when it looks like fur balls all over his body it is disgusting. If you are alright with how the mc looks then this game is not that bad.

I always like the idea of mindcontrol and I think that carries it a bit. As it's fairly short it gets straight into the action and is fairly consistent that way throughout and overall I did enjoy it.

However, choices don't really matter ... there's a few bad end choices but other than that they're largely meaningless just lead to slight different scenes (I skipped through a second time making opposite decisions to see). Oh also it seems like the dude in this is covered in burn tissue or birth marks for some reason. I also kinda didn't appreciate the preachy tone about a proper dom/sub relationship in a game where I'm trying to mindcontrol girls to get them to fuck me when they normally wouldn't consent to it.

A standard magical mind control trope that is undermined by poor execution.

The good:
The Dev deploys amazing graphics. The renders of the women are just gorgeous.
The sex is fappable and if you love harem games this will appeal.

The bad:
I hate to say it, but there's no real challenge to the game. It's basically rinse and repeat. There's a few meaningful choices early on regarding the participation level of the wife, and there's a mystery surrounding the neighbors next door later on, but a lot of the characters that come into the narrative just feel like filler.

Otherwise, it's basically a lot of sex that has too much sameness to it, which kind of deadens the eroticism. It has a lot of Sapphic and BDSM content but somehow manages to come off as vanilla.

If your expectations for a harem game are straightforward, you will enjoy this, because the sex happens early and often. I just personally got bored after a while. By the time I started exploring the mystery of the neighbors next door, I just didn't care about the characters any more and this side narrative was too confusing to be entertaining.

I rate this a 3.5 but am rounding down b/c I quit the game midway out of boredom.

This review is for 1.6 (Chapter 6) which was (a) my first time trying this game and (b) a complete play through. While I like the premise, this visual novel has issues with both the story and the visuals, so I'm giving it a 2-star rating. I will not be trying this game again unless there's significant changes.

The story has some promise, particularly how it emphases that a proper dom/sub relationship shouldn't be abusive. The MC gets magical powers, but arguably, it just removes inhibitions rather than being full mind control. That is, until Chapter 5, which is clearly about forcing the girls to act against their will. That completely runs contrary to the the repeated theme of loving consensual dom/sub relationship that is explicitly hammered home over and over again in the other chapters. The MC also requires that new girls accept the entire group, except not in Chapter 4, which is particularly jarring given that it's a major plot point for Chapters 3 and 5. Additionally, there's not really much conflict to drive an actual story at this point (though there's promise of more coming) and there are a lot of typos. The only meaningful choice is in Chapter 5, and that's just a test of reading comprehension and memory. Other choices do have small impacts, which is a plus.

The visuals have serious problems. The MC has weird body hair -- being really hairy is one thing, but it's oddly patchy. Character models floating a little bit are not uncommon in these kind of games, but there are some images that are really bad. There are some weird contortions, particularly in the early chapters, with distorted faces and inhumanly stretched necks. Some other distortions suggest that the camera was set too close to the scene. A few of the images have lighting issues blowing out the image and making characters and scenery way too pasty white. Character positioning isn't great, with awkward interactions between characters and scenes not very well posed so faces, etc. get hidden. This is made worse by the fact that there are just not enough images. We are told in the text that things happen, but are not shown them in the visuals, which also results in the visuals showing events several clicks before the text catches up.

story: is basic but it works.

characters: really good.

graffics: very good.

gameplay: good.

draws (cg): well done.

scenes (erotic ones): well done.

conclussion: the main characters looks wierd but is really well done, just like the story, both flow really well and doesnt haste at any moment.


this game TOTTALLY deserve your time and money.

Easy story opening, with a lot of potential as the MC becomes more powerful. Great if you like Master/Slave relationships with submissive girls. Very little fluff but great attention to setup and delivery. I'm very much looking forward to further chapters!

[Rev @ v1.3 (Ch. 3)]
A great start~

Art's decent; a bit stiff and a little uncanny valley, but all 3d is.

Writing is rough; a bit halting and stilted in a first-draft way. Narrative pacing is rushed and could do with more tension and more lead-in. Premise isn't new, but enjoyably done and I do like the possibilities presented by the twist at the current end.

REALLY enjoy the interplay with the wife and the MC's spoken focus on keeping his girls a happy pile of intertwined orgasms. Nothing squicked me in the current porn content, quite a bit was right up my alley. Appreciated not seeing things crammed up the wife's rear end on page 2 of the story.

Get an editor to make a pass or two over the rough spots and keep adding content in the same vein as the current stuff and this project will only get better. Watched~

Story:6/10
very interesting story with a lot of potential.
Graphics:3/10
faces (especially) & bodys looks weird, wife is ok but needs improvement.
a little sort 1st chapter but i'm eager to see the 2ed.
i love almost any light or heavy male dom storys.

so 3/5 for now
