VN - Ren'Py - Completed - Tamas Awakening [v1.0b] [Whiteleaf Studio]

It's a fun game, visually nice but the plot and the dialogue are just the worst. Like not bad just.... nonsensical.Or perhaps it's being intentionally tongue in cheek and I'm just missing the joke. In which case it'snot absurd enough

Every conversation seems to be filled with just about every variation the writer could think of to suggest the character is laughing bwawahaha kukukuku hahahahaha etc etc etc so it feels like you're playing as the Joker.

Pretty mediocre game. It started well with some mysteries and a step towards more step-by-step hypnosis plot. But quickly turned into "all of them want to fuck you since the moment they see you". And that's a thing I don't like in games. The art style is pretty good and the sex scenes are well drawn. But the story overall looks like a mess, in which author didn't come up with an ending. Whole concept of the game is about some "godlike" entity living inside the MC. But it is silent for the last half of the game. And even the plotline of the "enemy entity" is so short and abrupt, that it causes anger and laugh. In the end there is no plot in the game. Just breed all your relatives. But the game tries to show that there is some story behind it, completely failing in that aspect.

It's a relatively short kinetic novel with a simple but well-designed girls. The story, if you care, is incredibly convoluted and involving supernatural entities that allow the MC to manipulate women in a mind control effect. That itself isn't so convoluted in comparison, but the introduction of a similar entity that attempts to kill the MC before being forced to fuck-off is incredibly silly.

But, most people don't come here for the plot. The CG's are drawn quite well, but the "animations" leave much to be desired. Almost all animations are two repeated frames, thus if you wanted meaningful movement, you're out of luck. The latter half of the game features a lot of pregnant sex scenes, so if you're into that, fantastic. If not, you may want to skip over this game.

Writing is bogus. It's hard to get invested into anything that's going on. And this is important for any character-driven narrative game, porn or not.
Technical state leaves a few things to be desired, for example you don't have to press "Return" when you enter the options, all the other buttons are still accessible.
Art is good yeah, but maybe don't let your artist do all the writing and coding.

Fun and kinky little game, great quality for what it is.

The visual style is nice, well drawn cartoony art, the lewd scenes look great. There are some animations, nothing major, but they work very well.

The writing is good. The dialogue is decently convincing and funny, with the various characters feeling like actually different personalities.
There's plenty of sex scenes coming at you in quick succession and if you are into the kinks this game explores (mainly taboo, breeding and mind control) I'd say they're very good.

Very importantly, the game doesn't take itself too seriously. It's an irreverent, silly story and the writing never pretends otherwise, so the silliness is funny instead of tiring. I only mention this because so many lewd games have ridiculous plots, but insist on pretending they're a serious HBO drama series, which makes for tedious reading. This game avoids that pitfall entirely. No meandering scenes filled with endless, pointless and poorly written dialogue trying to justify the presence of clones, dragons and space wizards in a small suburban town - just lighthearted, sexy action from start to finish.

So if you are interested in the specific kinks portrayed by the game and want a fairly short, but very fun and sexy game, I thoroughly recommend this one.

Fuckfest with few lines in between

Story
Well, beside the "this is magic" or a magical setup the story is not believable at all but I still found it interesting to listen to what they say here and there. The build up they did with their magical thing went nowere so it was a bit dissapointing. Also I felt that the sexual built up was rushed getting to fuck (and impregnate) everyone after only few interactions.

Girls
Various girls with various body type. Maybe having a tanned girl/ closer colour would helped but otherwise happy with the options. They have a bit of a personality but not something with much depth or something that evolve over time.

Gameplay
The artstile is interesting and in some sex scenes the girls are really put in value. Corruption is well placed and the dirty talk helps.

This game is good:
+ The art styles and scenes for me is extremely good.
+ The gameplay as normal as every other Ren'Py games be.
+ Characters are build very good except those gods being as it dissappear and the mc teacher, i mean they should have more appears.

BUT, the story, well it was good at first but near the end was very bad as i think the studio end the story too fast with no explain (.

Overall, i think the arts and scenes saved the game story successfully.

Appreciate and thanks for what the studio do. Hopefully there will be more and upgrade from the studio.

Wasted potential.
great art and that's it.
This game got basic premise, Mc gain mind control power of sort.
BUT the "power" is really arbritary. Mc used power for the first time telling their family to strip and "think of him when getting pleasure/ masturbate"
and that's it done. Mc literally get D in V action without further using power.
it's like all women in the game are secretly nypho from the start and mc accidentally tip the switch, emphasize on "accidentally".

Imagine you tell your so that you like them and the next day they literally can't live without your dick. how dafuq? even with mind control porn logic this is retard level of writing. somehow you manage to make a very easily lazy mind conrol plot even more lazier that it can. dev literally make a new low on this one.
Being pure VN (no any mini game or interaction whatsoever) art and story are the only component I give 2 for the art.

If you ever wonder what would happen if you're studying psychology, Tamas Awakening has a very clear answer. After gaining new knowledge and powers, you would be able to love your family more than ever before.

Tamas Awakening promises lots and lots of impregnation and breeding dirty talk. And i think it delivers just that. I saw many complaints about the writing but i think it's actually quite nice for the most part. Anyone who is into that kind of things should enjoy this game. I'm personally not that much into pregnancy, especially if it's like half of the game but i still kinda enjoyed it. And that impregnation and breeding dirty talk was kinda hot. This game features some paranormal stuffs like hypnosis powers and ancient entities. I always think those things in porn game always feels really lame. If a relationship is based on hypnosis for me that's something not really believable. That kind of a relationship will always feel forced and not natural. There is a one love interest who never was under our hipnosis so that's a good thing. Those paranormal stuffs keep appearing in the game, but later on they kinda fade away. This part of the plot really feels pretty unfinished. The ancient entity in our head at one point just completely disappeared and it's never seen ever again. The same goes for a "rival" entity and its human vessel. It seems like there have to be some kind of confrontation, but after some dream ritual nothing happens. It looks like that ritual did something but it's unclear what exactly. I can only assume MC lost his powers but it's never confirmed.

The art style is pretty damn nice. Characters looks very good. Shame the game doesn't have any proper animations, only those basic two or three frames loops. There is more than 40 sex scenes in the game, it's not a bad number for a 6 hours long game. Sex scenes themselves are rather good, that impregnation and breeding dirty talk really does the trick here. The sound design is weird, there are some music themes in the game but they appear only like three times in the entire game, moaning is there only at the beginning and the cumming sound effect also disappears from the game later on.

Overall, this is quite a solid game. It is actually quite hard for me to rate it properly. There are some good things, there are some ok-ish things and there are things which are not my thing. In general, at least for me: too much pregnancy and too soon, and all those paranormal stuff replacing natural relationships and natural progression and character development. Plus seemingly resolved plot but unclear how. It's better than 3/5 but worse than 4/5.

I don't know why this game is rated as low as it it. If you go into it knowing what it is about and how it's a kinetic novel I don't see how you would hate it. It has all my preferences like incest, milfs, and impregnation.

Satisfying 2D game, except for the somewhat lengthy dialog. The plot is great, the characters are well-developed, and most importantly the 2D game plays with a different feel than a 3D game, which incidentally, I haven't played many 2D games before, so this one kinda took me by surprise.

I'm real confused about this one. The art is fantastic, and the setting is good enough, but the writing is just really bad. Its as if someone just woke up one day, and decided they wanted to write a story. But this person had very little interaction with others, and had never really read a book all the way through. Sort of like a- "it sounded better in my head," -kind of idea. It's really cringy to read, and situations really don't line up well. Things just suddenly happen, like the main character is deranged and can't keep their thoughts together in the slightest, and your just stuck on an inner dialog train ride, that is lost in a world of unfamiliar social interactions. That or the author just started writing, and constantly kept changing their mind cuz they got bored of their last idea, but didn't decide to go back and rewrite or change anything. Almost as if the author is incredibly lazy. Might also explain the 0.06b to 1.0 release as well.

It really is off putting. You want to stick around cuz the arts great, but everything surrounding it hurts. This really needs a rewrite. Heck I've thought of several ways to write it, and keep the art in the same order so it actually contains substance and anticipation.

It gets the 3 stars cuz the arts great, and I like how you can change the names and associations of the characters. The writing is an atrocity though. I guess if you look at it like it's some awful MTL translation that has been tidied up to be a little more coherent, then you might think it's okay, cuz you'll naturally clear up all the mumblejumble and sudden changes in direction that occurs to something a bit more tangible.

Also: There is a boat load of copyrighted music from various movies and TV shows in this game, and it normally follows complete silence, as there is no actual ambient audio in the game, or slice of life music you often get in the background of VN's.

Yeah. . it's going to be a hard pass for me on this one. I know there's porn writing, but this takes it to such an extreme that it'll have you laughing throughout the story. This is especially fatal for a VN like this, where your only real choices are what to name the girls who show up in your life. Besides the story, characters should be written well since all we're doing is reading but that's non existent, only known by their familial ties to the MC. Art's OK.

Maybe not 5 stars relative to some other games on this website, but 5 stars as a niche incest pregnancy game. That was some of the hottest dirty talk I have ever read and I thoroughly enjoyed the game.

My god this game is badly written, and it trully is a shame, if you'd wipe half the text and made slight changes to the rest it would be an ok sex game. It's a simple corruption premisse and very well drawn. That's all I have to say.

Pretty Okay Game, but the (((they))) felt so random, no need to put anti-semitic dogwhistles in your porn game otherwise pretty good, some of the humour is just. ugh. it's so outdated it hurts. An Illuminati reference? seriously?

Welcome to the Fuck/Fetish Festival everyone, where the plot is not important, consistence is not the key and if you want to get rid of something bad, just put that shit in a container and problem solved.

The game starts with a good idea, an approach to an interesting subject, but then it doesn't. There are a lot of inconsistences in the story, the timeline/pace feels extremely fast and incoherent and some decisions made by the MC and girls are ridiculous and make no sense whatsoever.
The lewd scenes get some upgrades towards the middle of the game, but overall they feel very static and uninspiring.
There are some uncanny choices for the sound effects when used, because like the majority of the game, they are also incoherent, appearing randomly throughout the game.
Maybe the best thing about this game, it's the art style. It's solid, enjoyable, with some good details on the girls, but not enough to save this one.
If I had to resume this game with one phrase, it would be: "The rest of the day goes by...".

If you have nothing else to do, you can play this game, otherwise this is a hard pass.

Tamas Awakening [v1.0b] Rating: 2.5*

You could´ve named this "Fuckfest - The Game", because it´s basically a Fuckfest VN that focuses on Sex Scenes.
The Story is rather nonsensical and is about some hypno alien relic that gives you the power to hypnotize the girls and make them your Sex Toys.
There´s also some other stuff that´s going on, but I lost the plot pretty quickly and just didn´t care about the story.
The Artstyle looks fairly well done, but can be inconsistent.
Sex Scenes are pretty good and offer lots of fetishes, but could have been better if animated.

If you search for a game that offers lots of sex scenes from the start, then this game might be for you.
If you search for a game with a decent story and any kind of build-up to it, then this game is not what you´re looking for.

Honestly, this is the most incohesive massive disappointment I think I have ever played. It honestly feels like every update was a new scene and they almost never connected to each other...and then it just ends. Because *insert I Don't Want To Play With You Anymore gif*.

The game never fully pins down the type of hypnosis they wanted. Did they want them semi-awake and aware? Fully under? Just alter their common sense type stuff? Changed from scene to scene. Never made any sense. Plot-points? Dropped and picked up randomly. Most of them never resolved in any way. The ones that are, weren't satisfying.

This had some potential but I think the guy just wanted to make himself cum and forgot he was writing a visual NOVEL.

This is perhaps the single most mindless porn VN I have ever played, which says a lot. It violates just about every single storytelling rule I can think of and the PC and all the characters are asinine to the extreme.

Despite all the above, the sex scenes are very, very good. Whether you'll enjoy this depends on whether you need a basic plot structure to your VN or not I suppose.
