VN - Ren'Py - Completed - The Necromancer Arises [v1.0] [Whiteleaf Studio]

I've been waiting to try this game since it's announcement 2 years ago.

And well, for someone that rarely makes reviews I have to make for this one just to tell how this is a bunch of nothing, the only saving grace are the models of the game because the rest is basically non existent.

This is just a vn, we have choices that barely impact the game(if any) and we also have a karma system for some reason.

This game was part of a group of 3 games that I was waiting since 2023 and has been a major disappoitment, hope the 2 other are better...

I think whoever make this just throw entire part 1.0 to part 2.0 gone to existence and just went straight to incest porn

Zombie girl? No scene, (we don't count cuddling.)
Necromancer Book and our supposed Lord? Nothing. we don't know his name

The premise set in Hunter Age where mysterious portal just open out and flood our world with monster so people awakened from mana to hunt them monster. Hence, HUNTER (what is this? a manhwa story?)

Anyway they put KARMA SYSTEM and NEVER TOUCH IT AGAIN
no counting mechanism (relationship point, i thought this is a dating sim?)
TURN OUT IT JUST KINETIC NOVEL IN DISGUISE. YOUR CHOICE DON'T AFFECT MUCH THE STORY. Story is just bruh. You just molest your family and get them pregnant because "haha i am strong and now inbreeding is a choice." They made few character design quite good but they gave boobies to your family so we know where this gonna go. Potential just gone to waste and didn't explore much. It feel like they rushed this. Maybe.

Art is ok. Feel too sus for based on my guts feeling. I don't want to open fire and call it AI but i got 50-50 about it.

Animation? Eh. It just one scene and they move everything to static, might as well don't animate in the first place.

i wish i could be give 30/100 because 2/5 felt generous.

Рус:

плюсы:

1. Красивые персонажи
2. Приятная Анимация местами

Минусы:

1.отсутвие выбора это не игра это фильм если конечно так можно выразиться .
2. скудные анимации и сцены !!
3. отсутствие звуков как таковых ну или у меня не заработал тут я не уверен !!
В целом я не люблю такие произведения мне нравятся игры где ты выберешь что будет делать персонаж !! но увы я тут этого не видил ! только бессмысленные выборы и то в начале если не путаю !! я прошел эту новеллу и сразу же забыл что в ней было !! печаль !! в целом все прошу не кидать тапками ибо таково мое мнение !!

Eng translate:

pluses:

1. Beautiful characters
2. Nice Animation in places

Minuses:

1. The lack of choice is not a game, it's a movie, if you can put it that way.
2. Poor animations and scenes!!
3. the absence of sounds as such, or it didn't work for me, I'm not sure!!

In general, I don't like such works, I like games where you choose what the character will do!! But alas, I didn't see it here! only pointless choices , and that 's at the beginning , if I 'm not mistaken !! I went through this novel and immediately forgot what was in it!! The sadness!! In general, I ask you not to throw slippers, because that's my opinion!!

What a shameless game. Absolute waste of time. Completed tag is a lie too, it's essentially just dropped.

Aight so first of all, the entire premise? Doesn't matter. An academy of superpowered individuals with a bunch of attractive classmates, teachers and others? The whole nercomantic book, the skeletal dood that allegedly gave you powers, your undead minion and why she is sentient and grow in power? The whole premise of otherwordly gates suddenly appearing out of nowhere and their mystery? All completely dropped off the face of the earth without any resolution or even mention in favor of a standard younger-older sister/mom/aunt incest, a lot of characters either dont get ANYTHING (Anastasia the zombie girl, arguably your main girl, get NOTHING, Gwen get nothing, some other characters get nothing), a ton of characters appear one time and then completely dissapear forever, the story just stops halfway to give you half assed harem incest ending, nothing is resolved.

Now that i got this obvious travesty out of the system, which is enough to drop the score to 2 anyway, the game was very clearly made by some chunks and developer clearly didn't even remember what he did previously. There was a karma choice one time at the start, i assume it was supposed to be a mechanic developer dropped, never used again. Beginning of the game have several choices but they barely matter if at all, so it's essentially a kinetic novel, and in second half dev stopped pretending and it literally doesn't have choices anymore. There is a decent animation one time (with mom on the toilet) and the rest are 2 swapping frames, pathetic.

Writing is a definition of soulless, it's technically readable and have some basic finesse in it's execution, but it feels borderline AI and doesn't invoke anything, the thoughts during masturbations (many of them) drag on for WAY too long, developments are forced and sudden and every other vice of a failed project.

This game has no focus, it jumps from one idea to another without settling on anything and fail to develop every single one. Worst of all it is such an obviously commercial product without a single drop of a soul put into it that i cannot recommend it to absolutely anyone. I am the audience for the whole incest-pregnancy-harem thing, it's absolutely my thing, but this just ain't it.

I liked the dev's previous games even though I was disappointed by their rushed endings. This game, though? This is a piece of garbage. No sex with the zombie girl, a karma choice that appears once, doesn't do anything, and never comes back again; characters that have art and you name but never show up again and disappear from the plot; hell, the plot just drops off a cliff in a rush to the harem ending, and did I mention NO SEX WITH THE ZOMBIE GIRL?

To throw this game a bone, the art is awesome as always and the only reason I won't give this a one-star review.

This game is the result of a dev who doesn't give a shit about the final product, and it's sad because there is so much potential if they actually spent time to develop the game instead of pumping out rushed bullshit. But hey, they have someone paying their Patreon and rating this garbage highly, so maybe half-assing it is the way to go.

dont be tricked by the name, no corpse fucking in this!

in all seriousness, name is very wasted on this game. its a generic suburbia hell incest game with surprise special abilities that make our boring MC slightly less boring. i haven't seen much necromancing except a very alive looking zombie.

art is 2d which i always like, and would love to see more of (in better games lul), but unfortunately its nothing to write home about, a little dull to be honest. the mom character looks younger than most of MC's classmates.

I'm not sure what to make of this game. On one hand the art is decent enough. The Mc has a pretty easy time of things. His first day at school nets him a HJ with a randy nurse with more to come. His family seem to be sending out vibes too. Sis is sitting on the couch in her panties and spreading her legs. Mom walks in on the MC in the bathroom and gets an eyeful. The game will offer some pretty quick progression I'm guessing.

Where the game gets weird for me is the Mom. Forget her showering with other women in the house including the undead chick the Mc summons. It's weird and kind of pointless unless she is going to be the lesbo queen of the house. Frankly that shit bores the hell out of me. The thing that doesn't work though is how she and the MC talk to each other. Slut this, cunt that. It's cringy as hell. The other thing is the way they talk about incest. They're doing it and that is supposed to be the thing that is hot not some junior high convo. The art is pretty good and the dialogue is miles below in quality. Too bad.

Average seems fair for now. The art is pretty good but the dialogue is painful at times. Who knows where the game is going to go. The last update ends with the mom and sister giving the MC a co-blowjob and talking about making babies....They almost seem more happy to just be doing something screwed up than anything else. When the game plays out like a parody it's hard to take any story seriously. 3 out of 5,

İdea is good really good and i know this is pretty much paralel to some certain MC where he can rise dead beings shadows but still here its good in some way feels even better bacause for now Mc not turned into some tall handsome guy for now least thank god.

Still in early in story and building of game but still good really i can see high potential if done well like Superhuman if they handle it well its can be amazing really amazing this fits really well with story i pray they dont go rushing or do Lazy writing because of not enough money or they wanna do new game thing this happens in this site many many times.

5 star for potential art and for story for now in future can be change.

This game offers great graphics, engaging gameplay, and a unique storyline. The mechanics are smooth, and it strikes a nice balance between mature content and fun, interactive features. Worth playing! looking for more

This was really really bad, story gets ruined by all the forced shit, you got no choices that matters, you dont like mother sex or huge saggy tits? to bad MC will have a sexual relationship with whoever with 0 choice to the player.

I did like the art but since i dont have a big tit fetish this game just turned me off constantly by trowing them in my face none stop and i simply just dont want to see that shit, why make a game and force the players to see stuff they dont want to see, its worse then a b-porn movie.

Then you have an MC the second guess he self constantly, like "i got to stop watching my sisters ass" but a little bit later hes in an all out sexual relationship with hes family.....

As for the hole hunter school and MC becoming extremly powerfull is not even in the game, its all about the incest and lust for hes family.

Game is extremly kinetic since choices barely exsist in this one.

The animations are poor and cant even be called animations, 2 frames or in other words picture to picture is not really an animation in any way.

sexy art, love the mother scenes..very big booba.
it still needs adjustments naturally, but it's a good job, I really like the theme and that's why I'm always here
9/10 i enjoyed it, only lacking music
looking forward to future updates

God i wanted to love this game so bad. Your family is so damn hot expecally the mom and the older sister. But the necromancer stuff is so damn weird and not well written at all.

It feels like the game creator wanted to make a fantasy game and a house incest game and just ended up with this weird combination of the two that never works.

The writing, save for some oddities which I assume are translating errors (which there aren't even many of) is really well written. Somehow it approaches generic tropes without feeling too generic itself, and managed to stand out in my mind as memorable.

There's an overarching plot that the story starts to kick off multiple subplots which is the entire game's content so far. Which as of v 0.04 I would say there's about two hours of content if you read it slowly like a novel.

In terms of scenes there are only a few compared to some similar games, but that's not really why you should play this game. They're nothing on their own without the writing between the scenes, as they are what makes it stand out. That said, the art in the scenes is consistently phenomenal, just like the character art.

As of now the game is almost entirely kinetic with only one long lasting choice, and hardly any choices to begin with. Though I prefer this over fake choices without any changes.

So far, so good. I'm a big fan of the dev's other games, although admittedly, mostly for the art and not for the story or characters.

The worldbuilding of this game is markedly more interesting than their previous games though, so I'm excited to see more.

This is just a little nitpick, but does anyone else think it's weird that so many characters gush over the MC's "giant" cock and talk about how massive it is and how much it would hurt inside when it's like a perfectly average size? Like the art varies from scene to scene, and sometimes it's bigger, but there are several moments where my irl cock looks bigger than the MC's and the characters are acting like it's a horse cock. Just a weird reoccurring issue where the art doesn't match the dialogue. Maybe size up the cock in the artwork going forward if you want to talk about how big it is.

But I highly recommend if for nothing but the beautiful 2d art alone. I'm hoping the story keeps going and stays as interesting as it has been

Everything that's need. Pussy, anal, nice and simple story. Fucking harem and good looking dude. Everyone is pregnant and who fucking cares. Nice job to the team. Wish you luck with your next games. but please make more MILFS. WE NEED THEM

The story and the bikini bikinis of mo... landlady are perfect. Too short game but very promising.

Improving the art of gwen, the half japan girl and skye would make it barely perfect.

Also, more sluttier outfits for all characters would be paradise (like for mo.. landlady)

I'll keep my eyes on this game

Still very much early days and not a lot of scenes but I'll be looking for the updates in the future. The 2d art is great and I like the love interests, though the writing could use a bit of work. I listen to a lot of litrpg audiobooks so this is a fun nsfw version of that. I don't think the story here will ever be very deep but the hook is good enough to make it interesting.

Review for v0.02

As mentioned in the overview, the game takes a lot of inspiration from Solo Leveling (A relatively popular webnovel/manhwa/anime if the name means nothing to you). It's quite the claim that this game is even more exciting, and after playing this, has to be a joke? This actually took the setting of Solo Leveling and somehow made it incredibly boring. There is nothing "exciting" about this game so far. More than anything, it feels like a subpar imitation.

Honestly I don't even know where to start. The game creates all these situations that actuality could be interesting... and does fuck all with it. Everything is so quickly glossed over and just lacking in any sort of tension or intrigue. Not great. I can already feel myself cringing at the MC when the game inevitably tries to make him seem like an overpowered badass.

What did I actually like about this game? That art isn't bad. That's it. In fact, the only reason I'd play this game again is to download a full save and see all of the art for the scenes.

Maybe my expectations were a bit too high after reading this was based off something I really enjoyed, but this was a let down for me.

*maaaaan this game was fucking amazing all through the story part i was thinking about how this is just all gate type manhwas and man i love it*

*the art in my opinion is so fucking good i love this vintage feeling art and the girls are really hot*

this was a review from a more hopeful time when this game just came out and it looked and felt promising but alas

the once promised solo leveling/gates inspired story was barely used in favor of just mc fucking his aunt sister and mother with absolutely no interaction from the player like some badly written porn parody

the fact that the game is called necromancer arise when the necromancy is just a summoned undead girl (not even one the mc raised) who barely does anything other than suddenly jacking off while holding the mc

why was the hunter school introduced when the mc has little to do with it and the last we hear of it the school was closed cause of a gas leak or something
my question again why introduce the school when its not even critical to the plot that has happened (for now) the mc when into 1 dungeon thats it, thats where the solo leveling inspiration started and ended and he didnt even do much in the fucking dungeon met one monster and then came back out (not even a lewd scene where the monster in the shape of the team mate would like flash the mc to distract him or anything)

when i heard it was inspired by solo leveling i thought it would take place mostly in dungeons but alas no it barely has anything to do with dungeons or just awakend people as a whole

Looks like whiteleaf studio drop a new banger. The plot is literally every hunting, portals, gate manhwa (solo leveling, etc) but in hentai vn form. Arts look good, everything look solid. Character design could be a bit better (from my taste, I suppose). I hope there's more fantasy clothing and armor later on. Cuz I'll be annoy af if the hunters gone into gates wearing regular ass outfit without any protection.

Still this is good potential vn, I recommend you to come back and play this game in a few months because this game is still in its early phase.
