Ren'Py - Completed - The Pilgrimage [v2.10] [Messman]

A great game with lots of animations (and lots of variations of these animations) I didn't really like the moments with eggs in the ventilation, but this is personal. Gameplay mechanics are not annoying, and this is already a rare phenomenon among porn games

This game is nothing short of amazing. This might be my most favourite game on this website. To summarize, it has everything you could want from a game: amazing animations and graphics, various different enemy types, cool and unique combat system, many quick time events and mini games, puzzles, exploration, freedom of choice in as much as everything etc. not to mention that you grow an attachment to the characters since all of them have a unique personality and are quite funny in the dire situation they are in. The sheer amount of content that exists already is absolutely fantastic.

This is how an amazing game is made. Rather than writing a whole roman about it I would urge anyone to try and see for themselves, it's so good.

I'm a big fan of Mass Effect and Tali but I will try not to let that influence my review.

This is a really promising game. The game play elements are relatively simple (click to navigate, turn based combat) but there's nothing inherently wrong with that and these elements are well made. The renders are great and the animations are really good as well. I'll be following this closely with crossed fingers!

My new favorite game, i can't believe this is make with Ren.. amazing. The vents are close to Unreal Engine graphics. The animations are great, love the approach where there isn't one linear path and you can get different content with different lust levels and choices.

Bored and fed up with the nsfw games you've been playing? Well, try this game, maybe this game has the stuff you have been looking for.

Especially for those of you who are big fans of Mass Effect, I'm sure you won't last much longer to came lol. I don't give details for this game because it will spoil you, but I will tell you that this game has lots of animated scenes and battlefuck scenes.

Mad RESPECT for the devs, I love your game man.

I literally loved all the content, I wouldn't know what else to add because it's all good!
It reminded me of Tentacular, if I wanted to see something else it would be more "Bad Endings" but whatever happens I'm sure the dev will do very well.

PS: I've wanted to play ME for a long time and I didn't know Tali, having played this game will definitely change my first impression.

Update 1.8

Overall: Super enjoyable.
Gameplay: Clunky at first but once you get used to it, it is okay and immersive. Travel from room to room. Shoot monster blocking the way or submit for fun.
The more you play, more mechanics/gameplay are introduced. This is a plus for me. It never overwhelming - it does feel episodic with every new mechanic introduced.
There are game over sequences which are all good. It is not difficult to not get game over as the game is forgiving with the quick time event.

Sex Scenes: Super good. Beastality. Submission. Tentacle.
Note that the fps of video/gif can be stuttering but I still enjoy it. The effort on making the scene is so worth it for me.

I almost fell sick after so many sleepless nights exploring variations! Sooo addictive! And I am NOT particularly into +size boobs or butts (on the contrary). The game story/progression is interesting, the effects of it are interesting, and the p*rn is just awesome, thanks for the cuteness of the MC and the nice treatment of... erm... "stretching effects"?

The renders are soo fucking good!
love Talis slow decent into a monster slut. Can be a bit repetitive at times but its really not that bad, especially when the pay off is some really hot scenes. Although there is some insect content that just isnt my thing, but its avoidable after a certain point. Overall I really enjoy the game!

Firstly, the renders are EXCELLENT! This game is worth playing for this quality, you do not need to be familiar with Mass effect to get into this.

On the downsides? There is a very repetitive grind to progress the game thank goodness the ingame quest thing tells you what the next steps are otherwise you'd probably think you've seen it all and quit early.

Tali becoming a certified monster fucker was surprisingly fun.

My main dislike is towards the later end of the available content, stuff with spider/wasp lookin things. I love everything else about this game but god do i fuckin despise insects. Luckily its avoidable and even when i fail i can just scroll back to cheese until i win so i don't have to subject myself to those scenes.

I do want to stress despite how much i fuckin hate bugs, the rest of this game is a 5*

One of the most enjoyable porn games I have ever played. Somehow, Messman has used the overused Ren'Py engine to actually create a working game system with lewd combat and resources within the Mass Effect universe. Whilst at times somewhat confusing as to what you need to do to continue the storyline, the ingame computers helpfully inform and the locations easy to navigate to find something to help. I actually couldn't stop playing this game from start to end of content finish because I was enjoying it too much, always wanting to find what the next scene was.
Even when I thought all the content was finished, I used the Gallery Mod (stupidly easy to implement, amazingly made) to view scenes I missed due to choices I made and scenes I missed. This game has a lot of content! And more coming!
Absolutely recommend playing this if the tags are to your liking.

Probably the best renpy game I've ever played. The different styles of gameplay are refreshing, the models/animations are great, and it isn't just another renpy wish-fulfillment story. As a certified monster-fucker, it's an A+ from me.

I did not understood why this game is so highly rated in the first 5-10 minutes, but damn this is one of the best monster-kink games out there. While it is a very simple engine, the dev managed to make a variety of things and events that make it interesting to play.

GOOD:

• High variety of nasty monster scenes
• Excellent balance between con and non-con
• Good progression through areas and story
• Pretty decent characters

BAD:

• Many sprites are badly cropped with white outlines instead of an empty render background
• Animations usually have a lot of noise and are low-fps

UGLY:

• No gallery without mods is criminal
• Some parts of the game can be repetitive/grindy but not too much
• There are certain actions that look like objectives, but in reality they just permanently close off scenes, which is pretty sad

OVERALL: 4.5 solid game, has the potential to be truly, and without question, be a 5+

This game scratched an itch I didn't know I had in a way I didn't know you could scratch. Instantly convinced me to go support it.

The story is just a lovely mix of cohesive and to the point but with lots of little details and sub-plots sprinkled about.

The animations are simply sublime. Muah, it's like a cheff's kiss - absolutely fantastic. It really goes to show that framerate , filters and all the fanciest Ray Traced Shadows on the planet don't mean jack shit without nice looking models, good posing and a great sense of doing other than boring vanilla stuff. And nice looking models and great poses there are aplenty, with a metric fuckton of variety to boot.

And the gameplay loop is just fun. It's nothing crazy, but doesn't get in the way and there's variety to it - never gets stale.

I dumped 6 hours into this game in one go, it gets the filthy degenerate seal of approval. Would/Will do again in a heartbeat, play it if you like really freaky shit with emphasis on submissive MC and go support this wonderfully depraved dev.

Awesome game!

Diverse characters, really funny story and a huge amount of exploration.

Some areas (the vents) are a bit annoying to navigate, but overall, there is a narrative with a lot of nice sandboxy elements.

Great "corruption" game!

A victim of typical sandbox bloat. Has a lot of stuff to fap to if you're into the fetishes but a lot of it is stuck behind grind and getting lost in a terrible to navigate vent system that takes too long to get around in and is completely needlessly complicated . The dev also loves to break saves on every update making you have to do it all over again. The graphics aren't great but that's a whatever vs the vents ruining the entire experience and grinding any progression into an absolute standstill

This is one of the best games on here.

The writing doesn’t take itself too seriously (a good thing imo), the gameplay is fun and not very grindy, and the scenes are exceptionally crafted -the animation quality, the models, and the ideas are all excellent.

Excellent quality art and animations. Excellent lewd scenes. I hope we get more DP/Gangbang work down the line.

One thing I would suggest (This does not lower the rating btw) is that the moaning sounds during sex scenes get rotated a bit more. It gets a bit weird when you get the exact same sound over and over. But, I also understand this could simply be an engine limitation, so it's not a major issue.

Gets very old very fast. I guess if you're super horny you can get off to it really quick. Idk. Felt cheaply put together not gonna lie. The real corruption parts weren't really something that happened waaay later. And I enjoy that but it's far too late in the game.
