Ren'Py - Completed - The Princess and the Tower [v0.9c Public] [y.v.]

This game remined me of the old trainer game. its simple there is clear corruption progression, a bit grindy but have quite decent puzzle even thought a bit repetitive. The story is simple easy to understand, good length, so doesn't take multiple days to Finnish.
Yes the Mc is goblin, that may be the achilles heel for some and plus for others. but the main lure for me is the art style. This game have good unique 3D model, its refreshing. Even thought the sex scene is a bit static for my liking.

Nice game 3.5/5

+ The game has an original story, with a goblin protagonist (lol) corrupting a royal family.
+ Graphics are in 3D with a cartoonish look, which is a fresh air amongst all those Daz3D clones.
++ The dev is obviously a fellow pervert, who has respectable obsessions with sodomy, buttplugs and spanking (I wish it was possible to spank and give plugs to all the girls, and better see insertions/removals though).
-/+The game is grindy, but the minigames are not especially difficult or annoying.
+++The best point about the game is the humour, especially when it involves the complete airhead princess, who always has "some important princess stuff to do".
-The bad point is that the sex scenes are way too short, almost rushed, and often seen from afar. They come between long grinding sessions. As a result, the game is completely unfappable. I wish the dev could think of game mechanics that involve sex (I think it was possible to do that with the breaking of the chastity belt, or "breaking" the girls through spanking).

tl;dr: good for fun, not for fap

This is a surprisingly decent little game. It's funny and the gameplay has some variety, the characters are quirky and the princess is undoubtedly an interesting one

The renders are good, it would be nice to see more of them in different poses/circumstances.

The portal minigame takes some time to get used to but eventually, it gets easy. It is however grindy and it would be ideal if it can be shortened.
I was not a fan of the castle puzzle so always skipped that .

Overall I enjoyed the game, the characters and the funny tropes. I'm looking forward to the next game. Good luck with it.

I love it. I know its a game not for anyone, its quite grindy and progress is slow and hard thought for. Sometimes someone can get stuck not knowing how to process the story but if you check the log and think a little bit than you certainly can progress. The reward is progressivly kinky interactions with your girls. Even if the content seems realative small it is very lovely created and a lot of fun to discover.

Version 0.8b

Warning: This game contains non-avoidable sharing/prostitution. In oder to progress, you need to whore out one of the girls.

The game is fun and doesn't take itself too seriously.
However, it's quite a bit of grinding for very little sexual content.
Also, it's very easy to accidentally lock yourself out of content!

Overall I don't regret the time I spent on it, but it could have been so much more, and the ending feels rushed for now.

Pretty good game, a bit grindy, but not too much. I hope we could see a lot of new content soon! Really good character design. Especially thief girl (Nyx). Not too much content with wizard girl, but a lot of with princess. Nyx is my favorite character, will be waiting for more content for her)

I have to say it is a pretty solid , game so far (0.7). I haven't encountered any bugs, barring the rewrite and subsequent loss of save retrocompatibility was annoying I can understand the need for that.
The art is good and different from all the daz models out there.
The dev is extremely active on the forums here and helpful.
Game can be navigated without a detailed walkthrough, the one included ingame is more then enough .
Some of the puzzely minigames can be skipped, and the rest aren't completely retarded like in most cases. Mini games are a hit or miss, and and for me it's a huge one!
Play the game it's worth it !

Simple gameplay with medium grind and poor payoff. The slow build might be worth it if the scenes they were building toward were decent, but they ultimately fall flat and the gameplay grind is a bit too much. These issues don't feel like they can be fixed with updates, so feel free to miss this one.

The gamplay itself does a few curious and interesting things. It changes through the course of the game, transitioning from simple dungeon crawling to simple area control, then to simple dungeon crawling again. New gameplay interrupts the grind a bit, though the games are too simplistic to hold attention for the amount of time the designer is asking for. This leaves the player feeling they've traded one grind for another.

Figuring out how to unlock new content can be extremely frustrating. The in-game quest tracker is sufficient at first but soon falls short, forcing players to dig through the forum to figure out how to trigger a new scene. I eventually stopped playing when I had no idea how to continue, and the only thing the forum recommended didn't seem to work.

I feel the quality of scenes tapered toward the end. There are several scenes that feel like they should be big payoffs for a lot of work but are less-explored than most dialogue. Slow-build corruption only works if there's adequate payoff, and what should feel like triumph currently feels like afterthought.

For example: It's a long time and a lot of effort before the player can actually have sex with the princess. It should feel like a major accomplishment the whole game in the making. Instead, she literally tells you she's going to read a book while you're back there. The scene with the apprentice is similar, with her saying "Go ahead and do what you have to," and barely reacting to what you're doing. Why doesn't the sex feel sexy?

Another example: The player spends a long time re-building a room into a sex dungeon, full of devious-looking toys and contraptions. After teasing a pillory, chains, and whips the only content in the room is sticking the princess into a cage for a few hours to get the "sub" number to go up.

This game has some good ideas that aren't explored well enough to be worth the grind. If you're anything like me, it will leave you frustrated and wishing you hadn't spend so much time on it.

The main draws of the game for me was its unique artstyle and intersting gameplay with varied types of minigames such as crafting, dungeon crawling with fights on encounters, and strategy board game etc. It was refreshing to see something that had actual gameplay mixed with some story on a renpy engine that wasnt a japanese game or had honeyselect or normal DAZ models. No engrish here btw. And I felt my time was enjoyable playing it

Over the course of watching this game changes have been made as well as systems being adjusted for grind and mechanics so I dont really want to comment on their execution too much other than saying that there is an option on ver. 0.6 to play on easy if you want to minimize grind.

Gonna give it 5 stars to encourage the dev not to abandon this project and encourage others to give it a shot

An actually interesting gameplay loop with decent pacing of the rewards. Some very minor improvements I could suggest, is allowing to hold the movement buttons (for dungeon areas without enemies) and being able to speed up the fruit machine thingy by pressing space. Oh and using lockpicks on the bathroom/attic when its in use.

Note I played on Easy, I could see how on normal the game could be a lot more grindy (especially once you start the portal expansion)

Unique art style is reason for high score. Also the fact that dev really tried to get more from Ren'Py than people usually do. It sometimes gets a bit slow/grindy, especially that favours with princess cannot be skipped. Overall good effort!

[Reviewed 0.5.1]

This game might not be for everyone looking for a fap game, but I really love it. First and most obvious is the art style. You can judge for yourself if you think the preview images are appealing. Personally I love it, so big plus points. It's cute, and gives a nice change of pace from the usual affair. There's no penetrative sex in the game at this time (unless you count blowjobs), but the sex scenes are still enjoyable enough.

The emphasis here is actually on the tower rather than the princess. The first half of the game is spent playing a simple but enjoyable mini-game exploring the dungeons of the tower, collecting loot and dodging slime monsters. This is primarily to grind money to gain the princess' trust, but unlocks naughty scenes with her along the way. No question some will find even the smallest amount of grind unacceptable, but it was never enough to bother me in the least, even on "normal" mode (the game does have an "easy" mode that gives more gold).

About halfway through the game (might be 1/3 of the total game by the end), you get a new girl who takes over the task of gathering gold from the dungeons and your new task is a strategy board game using the magic portal to take territory and uncover new locations to visit. Again it's a simple and enjoyable mini-game. I appreciate both these mini-games both because, as stated, they are simple and enjoyable, but also because it feels like you are doing something which is actually connected to the world and story-progression, which you don't get a lot in fap games beyond, "bring x to y" adventure game style. So as with the art, the change of pace is nice.

On the negative side, the princess' personality seems very inconsistent. She starts by barking orders, which makes sense, but very quickly is down to becomes goblin MC's pet (even if only during play), which doesn't seem to make much sense. She says he evil step-mother would put her through such paces, but she hates her evil step-mother, so again, it's odd that she's so enthusiastic about pet play. Whatever, it's still fun and silly, so I digress.

As well, there are a couple things that could use just ONE extra sentence in dialogue to explain things. I feel like the concept of taking territory in the magic portal game could be better explained. Currently it's quickly explained in tool-tips when the mini-game is introduced, but something more in-world would definitely be an improvement. I also completely missed that you need to use a lock-pick on the princess' chastity belt. I could have sworn that she said in the beginning that the key was at the bottom of the tower, (I could be wrong). If instead she had stated that evil step-mother has the key and we'll have to find some other way to get the belt off I think it would have been a good clue to using a lock-pick.

Final thoughts. It's a good game. It looks like the developer is using this as a learning process for making games, and the rough patches discussed above show that. But there's a lot of good stuff here already, and a lot of promise. Looking forward to more of this, and whatever this dev cooks up next.

Repetitive actions take a lot of time, but there is very little unique content and over time it gets boring.
Bugs when switching from version to version.
Not all scripts start.
Nevertheless, Liked the characters and crafting system.

Art is very nice, but that's it. Too grindy to get even little lewd. I mean example, in racing games, you don't have to clean some random slut's room before you get to drive. For some reason in most porn / sex games that's the case. So cannot give you more than 2 stars.

So far so good.
Love the trashy princess, did not realize I was into this type of character.
The dungeon and the crafting system is simple so far, which is for the best.
Seems to hit the right buttons so far, keep up the good work.

Updating my review for v0.5a since pretty much all my complaints about v0.4 have been addressed. Overall: A very fun gameplay experience mixed with cute characters and sexy scenes. A surprisingly solid effort for a first game with lots of focus and polish (the dev has a roadmap planned out and expects to complete it within the next few months).

+ The characters look kinda cute, if low-res.
+ Light gameplay with some variety helps keep the player engaged.

- While the writing is technically competent, it is on the dry side and pretty minimalistic.
- There's not much of a corruption arc here. The princess really doesn't need much prodding for any of the sexual stuff. In a trainer, each new scene/act should be a breakthrough after some resistance. Here, it's "eh, maybe later", followed by "eh, sure, why not".
- The repetition becomes tedious, certainly doing the morning chores and searching the rooms every day.
- I ran into some bugs in 3a, but nothing that couldn't be rollbacked/ignored.

Personally, I did would prefer a princess less sluty and more recated and corrupt her, step a at step along the game. But is a good trainer game.
I like the desing of the characters near to the cartoon and realistic.
I play the 0.3 version.

This was a surprisingly hot game. I really like the laid back BDSM nature of the game. The princess is hot and I like how she's both kind of a bitch but kind of chill about everything too. The mini-games are good, but they do get a bit repetitive after a while. Overall this game is great so far.

Things I'd like to see:

- More interactive options and dialogues with the princess on a day to day basis.
- Less random chance in crafting or maybe NO random chance TBH (in regards to items, not gold)
- Either less random chance in the dance game or higher success rates with the focus being on giving the player more opportunity to see her poses. I got to the point where that mini-game was no longer useful for progression and felt I never saw all her moves and only saw a couple a single time.
- POV for the deepthroat scene

Anyway great game. I'm looking forward to the next updates.


Edit for completed version: I had to take away 2 stars. Starts as a normal trainer/harem game but then eventually devolves into NTR cuck bullshit. A real shame.

Love the Slutty Princess and the artwork.
5/5
The scenes are sexy and this game has a lot of potential!
I was looking for games like this for a long time, and this is spot on.
Already looking forward for the next update!!
