VN - Ren'Py - Special Request: In the Web of Corruption [v2.8] [Nemiegs]

[[Rating is based on version v2.8 – Wednesday, Week 6: Laura faces punishment, finds a new lead, and encounters surprises.]]

“Special Request” is one of those games I always come back to when I’m in the mood for a long, indulgent "grinding session" (if you know what I mean ). It’s a dark, twisted, and unapologetically messy ride that keeps pulling you back in, with every choice feeling like it could push the story into something even worse, and that tension is what makes it so addictive. I’ve played a lot of visual novels, but this one just grabs you and doesn’t let go, especially with its corruption and blackmail themes that are taken to a whole new level.

The premise is simple but gripping: you play as Laura, a woman whose life unravels after a single ill-fated night out with friends lands her in a blackmail scheme orchestrated by a powerful crime syndicate. Now completely under the mafia’s control, every part of her life is dictated by their manipulation, and that constant pressure drives the story forward.

Laura herself is the beating heart of this story, and she’s one of the most striking female protagonists I’ve seen in the genre: elegant, classy, and believable as someone with both strength and vulnerability. She’s competent and sharp, but also utterly trapped, and that tension between who she was and what’s being done to her is what makes her character so compelling. You’re not just watching her life unravel, you’re actively guiding her through this nightmare, balancing survival and morality or pushing her deeper into corruption if that’s your style. It’s a proper character-driven story, which is rare in this genre, and watching Laura navigate this gauntlet of humiliation and danger is what keeps you coming back for more.

Gameplay elevates that tension even further, offering meaningful choices and a constant tug-of-war between pride, submission, and corruption. Recent updates have introduced an investigation tracker and more player control, giving the detective elements real weight, while the branching paths ensure that a single playthrough only scratches the surface. Replayability is high, with every decision reshaping Laura’s arc. The variety stands out too, with multiple paths, fetishes seamlessly woven into the story rather than used for shock, and thoughtful extras like outfit options and gallery updates to keep things engaging.

The art is another standout feature, stunning renders and smooth animations make every scene cinematic rather than thrown together, and each update has refined the visuals, especially the lighting. Laura’s design and expressive details make her journey hit even harder, whether you’re trying to protect her or push her further into depravity. The emotional weight of her transformation is amplified by the polished visuals, and combined with the branching choices, the art brings the whole experience to life.

Content warning up front: this game dives deep into blackmail, humiliation, and other heavy themes, and it’s definitely not for everyone. That honesty is part of its strength, though, the story doesn’t shy away from its darkness, and it earns its emotional impact by fully committing to that tone. For players who enjoy morally complex narratives and adult-focused corruption stories, this is a gold standard.

If you’re looking for something sexy, dramatic, and unapologetically dark, Special Request is an easy recommendation. It’s a rare visual novel that blends high-quality art, meaningful player choices, and a story that constantly evolves, making it one of the best titles in its genre. The pacing is tight, the atmosphere heavy but captivating, and the branching paths give it massive replay value. Just be prepared to lose hours to it, it’s impossible to put down.

This is the game that just keeps giving.

Endlessly creative and twisted scenarios with excellent renders. Constant barrage of her getting the treatment in every way possible, with the maximum humiliation factor.

Recommended.

Fantastic game if you are into that sort of thing. Animations and character models are excellent. Also the kinetic version is great if you don’t want to deal with all the open world stuff and just want to get to the story and scenes.

on version v2.5 there is a good amount of content in this game and its enjoyable for a fapgame. There are still things that could be improved (to me its not entirely clear the pride/submission/corruption mechanic of the game) but still imma give 5/5 stars either way. Dont wanna spoiler too much just play this game.
PSi skipped like 80% of the text without focusing too much on the overhall plot.

The visuals in this game are commendable, with fine details and a lack of bugs ensuring a smooth technical experience. However, the narrative leaves much to be desired and ultimately undermines the overall enjoyment. The story, unfortunately, comes across as highly unrealistic and frustrating.

Every event and decision in the game appears to funnel the protagonist into scenarios of assault, stripping the player of any sense of meaningful agency or control over the character's fate. While I respect that some may find appeal in this style of storytelling, it felt excessive and repetitive to me. The lack of consensual intimacy in the game is particularly glaring—such scenes are virtually nonexistent, which creates a one-dimensional experience that fails to offer variety or depth.

I’m generally a fan of games with a strong female protagonist and appreciate the opportunity to explore different narratives. However, this game’s protagonist feels devoid of autonomy, making the choices presented to the player feel hollow and ineffective. As a result, what could have been an empowering or engaging experience instead feels limiting and unsatisfying.

While the game succeeds visually and runs without technical issues, its lack of balance in storytelling and failure to offer meaningful player agency significantly detract from its potential. This is a missed opportunity for what could have been a much more impactful and nuanced experience.

one of my favourite game. the reasons :
-the female protagonist is very beautifull, the face, the body. the kind of woman you fall in love if you see her in the street ( sry i'm not to the point where i can fall in love with a game character ).
-no horrible big asses big boobs but natural realistic bodies for the women.
-women wear heels and sexy dresses, they keep their heels during the sex scenes, the author is a man of culture, no boring full naked here.
-almost each renders are very erotic, the poses are well choosen and erotics.
-the main woman character is so pretty that you feel bad for her ( compassion ), but, in the same time, well it's a porn game so we want to see some hot stuff. the choice is yours.
- the image quality is very good, i like the lightning.
-you never get bored, there's always something happening, no 10 tons of boring blabla here.
-there's some voyeurism stuff that i like too.
-hot stuff during the whole game, even just the renders of her walking in the street are hot.

the 2 only cons : the villains are a bit "too much" and there are some animated scenes that are not very well done.

this is one of the 10 games i'll always keep on my computer.

I feel like this game is all about me
I had a situation like this once where I was shanghaied like that.
And I had to go to great lengths to get results, but at some point I got the taste for it and I couldn't stay.

This is an excellent Game and should have more supporters. Good story and graphics. The developer is great and should get more attention . Would recommend it. Now I am just trying to fill all of the requirement for the character count.

Note: Review given for previous update. Haven't played the 2.3 version yet.

Is this a literary masterpiece that accurately reflects real life and plausible decision making? No. Is it a quality rendered and animated VN with a rather uniquely hot MC that gets plowed repeatedly? Yes.

This is not for the faint of heart if easily offended. If played full corruption, the MC undergoes some rather difficult situations. Most of which are quite fappable. Despite it being very MC centric - she is the subject of most of the naughty scenes - it doesn't seem to get old. At least for me. Just when I think, "ok this is getting ridiculous" I find myself wondering what she will get into - or who will get into her.

In short, recommended for quality renders, animations and some fetish situations not commonly found in most VNs. Yes, there is heavy NTR, but the Husband, so far, is completely unaware. So, pure netorare, not cuck (at least yet.)

One of the best VN's on F95 particularly if you like blackmail and corruption.

The Story is super interesting, again if you like Blackmail and corruption.

The Renders and animations are Outstanding. Special Request is definitely in my top 5 VN's to date (7/2024) This is an easy game to rate with the exception that I can't give it higher than 5 stars! **********

Now if you don't like corruption, blackmail and you want a consensual heavily lesbian love story then I think you will hate this. There are however thousands of other VN's on F95 that will make you happier. If your overly sensitive about sound design in a VN you may not like this, I see at least one whiny review loving everything else but, the sound design was not to there liking so he gave it a shit review. I find the sounds likeable enough in an adult VN.

Story 5 Stars
Blackmail 5 Stars
Humiliation 5 Stars
Corruption 5 Stars
Renders 5 Stars
Animations 5 Stars

If you like this type and style of game then give it a try it's really super well done. If you feel the need to try and save a ho in a pixelated animated fantasy game then please go away and seek mental help.

Renders is good.
Story not bad.
Corruption and blackmail excellent .

Everything looks good, right?
But the unbearably bad sound effects (like OMG) fill the entire game and cannot be turned off.
The " canned sound" ruined it all.

Well, this is a good game!

The game's standout feature is its high-quality artwork. The visuals are meticulously crafted by a dedicated Dev, bringing the characters and settings to life in a way that enhances the overall atmosphere and IMO, draws players into the story.

The themes of corruption, blackmail, and sexual exploitation, weaving a complex and intriguing narrative that keeps players invested is right up my street.

With about 2-3 hours of gameplay, the game provides a satisfying amount of content for players to explore. Maintains a good balance between narrative and player choice, allowing for decisions that influence the story's direction.

One of the game's strengths is its ability to keep the blackmail element relevant throughout the story, which adds tension and my interest.

Special Request has long been one of my favourite games, it excels in delivering a well-crafted narrative combined with visually appealing artwork.

Why can't I give more then 5 stars?

This is... I had this game just sitting around while I played my faves, kept overlooking it. And then on a whim I spun it up. And it was good. And I kept playing. And it was great. And I kept playing. Days were passing by and I thought 'you know, I need to post a review'. And I kept playing, and there was STILL more content to play, and it somehow kept getting better. And it kept having new ideas, it wasn't getting repetitive, the story was pulling me deeper... and after forever and a day I reached the end... and I stared.. and I realized I'd played 1 branch. No, not 1 branch, 1 possible path through one high-level branch (the 'screw up and find out' path) which had numerous tandem side-streets of content that I hadn't even touched. And that I could start all over with trying to actually save her and see how things go.

.... I just... Ok.. more formal..

Likes:
* Artwork is almost consistently top-tier in its CG genre
* Story is immersive
* Characters are consistent
* The game flows smoothly between normal speech and totally crude
* So. Many. Kinks. And creative touches on most of them that you haven't seen in other games
* Headgames - it does a great job of diving into mind-breaks (well, slow ones), instead of that stupidly annoying 'omg! like something terrible is happening! it is soooo hot and now I'm cumming!!' I mean yea, her body reacts to it, and her corruption slowly increases / morals decrease, but you can actually enjoy the journey
* Side-characters - they're actually hot and you want them included, they're not just same-character-different-hair
* Sheer amount of content
* Choices. This is VNish but it Feels like a game. Like you are making interesting choices
* Fourth wall break. I never put my real name in games, but suddenly the MC asked who I (the player) was. And I put in my name on a whim. OMG I discovered a new kink I never even knew existed, that I don't think even had a name - a fourth wall kink where the character actually (at times) interacts with the Player. In the best possible ways. It isn't a Lot but it is there and it is so much fun I have no words. Not like the intro 'hey player what's your name' or 'wink wink nudge nudge' but.. I can't explain it, just try it

Cons
* ... damn, I can't even say 'there isn't more of it' because (while I Want more of it), there is SO MUCH

No notes. Chef's kiss.

Entertaining and well written. Was pleasantly surprised with this one.
The story at times is a bit weak here and there but quite forgivable.
Highly recommended even if corruption is not your thing as this might change your mind.

Well worth supporting to see where things go.

Special Request is one of the best story-driven games out there. A hot blackmail story with an even hotter FMC. Good renders and frequently updates, a developer interacting with his community and adding polls. What do I want more?

Technically this game is pretty great. Awesome renders, lots of animations and sex scenes. I think a few of the animations are recycled in places, noticable but not to the point where it's a issue.

Tonally it's a bit all over the place, moving between serious, to comedic, to outright batshit crazy in some sequences. That being said I enjoyed the games funnier and zanier moments more than the more serious stuff as the game gets pretty rapey and I don't personally enjoy that stuff. I was warned though from other reviews that would be the case and so that doesn't influence my score.

On the whole I enjoyed my time with it, particularly once we got to about the middle of week 3 and Laura's corruption starts to kick in a bit more, and the game becomes a little sillier and doesn't take itself quite so seriously. I can honestly say it made me lol in a few places, so thanks for that

Porn game where a woman is blackmailed by a company and
forced to do their bidding.

Pros: MC and other women are attractive

Normal realistic breasts and not the usual gigantic
cartoon breasts as often seen in porn games.

Dialogue is actually pretty decent and readable,
anyone who has played many porn games knows
that dialogue in some of these games can be terrible.

Has animated moving scenes

Has actual moan and sounds

Realistic vagina along with wetness and squirting

Creepy old men characters , the staple of any good porn
game, the old guy in the game that is infatuated with the
female protagonist looks like a taller and more overweight
version of Cotton Hill.

I think the music sounds good, but with one exception as noted
in the con section.


Cons: The female MC looks like she could use a
bottle of lotion as she has extreme dry skin, same for
other women in the game they have extremely dry looking skin.

The female MC is 27 years old and in one of the first scenes
her pubes are grey, white, black, which is salt and pepper
looking like granny pubes, but at least the pubes are
normal black in the rest of the game. Not sure why they
look like that in that scene.

Also in the game comedy scenes, the comedy music from
version 1.9 has now been removed in the latest version and
instead a serious sounding dramatic theme plays which makes the
comedy scenes of the game less funny and off feeling.
Developer should put back in the silly sounding song
for the comedy scenes.

Easily One of the BEST CORRUPTION game on this site. Hey, if you Love slow and Degrading Corruption done absolutely right, Play this Game. Trust me, if You are into Corruption, this will easily be one of your Top 10 Games. The pace, the degradation, the Corruption, the Art, the Story is absolutely Brilliant *Chef's Kiss*. I would rate it 10/5 if I could.

An excellent game about corruption. Laura and all the other girls look great, and the animations improve with every update. Lots of fetishes as well. Keep up the good work. Patiently waiting for the next update

The visuals are fine, and I haven't encountered any bugs.
However, the story is quite frankly ridiculous.
Everything that happens, every choice you make is just another avenue that leads to your character getting raped.

I'm not one to kink shame, but f*ck me this is ridiculous.
There is barely any consexual sex AT ALL.
Don't get me wrong, I love a female protagonist led game, but this MC has zero agency and the choices feel meaningless as a result.
