Ren'Py - The Shadow over Blackmore [v0.4.8] [Darktoz]

This game is so damn cool. I am not really into hell and demons and all that, but it really does the theme well. Interesting world and lore to the point I actually am reading the story. The models are fantastic, and this game actually has animations.

A flaw is a lot of the fetishes are repeated with some characters. Like its a lot of kind of the same flavor of dominance, especially with side characters. So like a lot of licking feet/boots.
Overall really unique and definitely worth playing if you like good scenes, excellent atmosphere, and a interesting story.

The Shadow over Blackmore [v0.4.8] [Darktoz]
"Devil's Vegas where you can sell your soul on every crossroad"

Step into matriarchal nightmare metropolis where you are just a pup in a jungle of horrors where everyone wants a piece of you, or wants to put their piece in you, where salvation is a myth and every alleyway oozes decadence, danger, and desire.
Survive in this gaping latex fever dream by making the right demented choices, slicing through mind games and kinky traps before girlbosses and futaqueens snap your cock and balls and turn your ass into their personal playground.

Gameplay and Mechanics
It’s a visual novel that plays like a nightmare version of Vegas, find clues in the beautiful Blackmore and the dialogues , but every dialogue choice and scene is crafted to drag you deeper into sin,
try not to give into cumming in the vamp goth mommies or struggle to drink the futacum of 8ft dark trans elves, every step you take pushes you closer to surrendering your mind or slipping into irreversible depravity.
The game’s mechanics aren’t complex, but they’re devilishly effective, let clues, subtle hints, and the sinister whispers guide you
as you try your best not to sell your soul, or at least find the right buyer

Story
You sink down from this mortal world coiling down into this fever dreamish open-air prison of lust, shadows, and horrors beyond your wildest dreams.
Your mission as a naïve and helpless pawn is to survive this helltown by any means, gobbling toes, swallowing cocks,
and bowing to the dark matriarchs who reign over this cursed realm where you aren't even safe in your dreams.
Just do your best by swallowing the futacum as you resist emptying your own balls.

Characters
Everyone is a devilish delicacy, from bloodsucking dommes who want your balls and loyalty to cocksucking gremlins growing on your lust and size of your blue balls to
bolted-on futagoddesses who have their way with the pawn MC,
bending him over by their sinister ideas and monstrous cocks and more sinister dungeons.

Graphics and Sound
This game delivers on both of these departments, visual feast and auditory galore.
The graphics are just eyecandy, even if that candy is drench in the cum from the rivers
of hell, it's delicious and you just wanna keep sucking and licking that sweet candy,
every model from the busty vamp queens to the futa elves to the monstrous creations of the hell, everything keeps your cock and eyes focused on the screen.

Replay Value
A myriad of endings as your are hunted on every corner of the block,
multiple choices and complete freedom on your kinks and gender preferences, go from cuntheaven to complete pussy free hellbent cock worship, its all upto your fantasies and needs.

Personal Opinion
This game ascends into my personal favs list, it's almost perfect in every sense.
Flawless models, rich environments, and fetishes that tap into every taboo make it an unmissable feast for the degenerate
t licked all my kinks from heavenly mommy bodies to hellish freakshows, you just cant skip any of the scenes and the endings.

Pros:

• Meticulous world building so rich it oozes lust and sex in every scene.
• Amazing models and animations that fills you in multiple ways
• Complete custom selection of kinks, fetishes, and genders, this should be normalized in all games
• Character depth and sinister personalities that keep you hooked

Cons:

• Not hardcore enough, everything is there ready to explode into proper gluttonous degeneracy , devs just gotta go more wild
• No incest, spawn his mom or sister and make him suck the hole where he came from

Potential Additions:

• More visceral gore and carnage, spill all the bodily fluids properly, not just cum
• Romantic paths more that just domination and flirting. Devil needs love too

One of the best Worldbuildings you can find on this website. Creating a really eery atmosphere. The Vibe is Vampire : The Masquerade.

For the Porn you will need the Female Domination Kink to fully enjoy.
Some of the Kinks are not my cup of tea. But the World is fascinating so it didnt bother me much.

Recommended if you want something different but of high quality

This game is just pure bdsm and male submission, mc is a whimp, and choices where he stands up for himself are not always available, and even if it is it makes him look soft, if your not into into this then don't play it, honestly I think the dev should have atleast give a proper synopsis. I played a full non sex playthrough, however some scenes like the maid scene is non-optional.

I am not gonna lie, this game is a personal favorite of mine. I’ve been a fan of Darktoz since his RPGM days, and I was thrilled to see this game developed in Ren’Py. While it hits a lot of my personal fetishes, I will try to stay objective in the context of a review.

Right off the bat, the atmosphere grabs you. If you enjoy adult games wrapped in gothic fog, weird rituals, and a city that feels alive yet rotten, this game nails it. The setting is eerie, think The Ninth Gate meets vampiric couture, and the writing leans into mystery rather than just stringing together scenes, making Blackmore genuinely intriguing. The world-building is insane: the city feels alive, dangerous, and unpredictable, with every character hinting at hidden agendas. It’s a niche but seamless blend of dark fantasy, Lovecraftian vibes, and hardcore femdom/futa content, all wrapped in a gothic, occult horror aesthetic that’s creepy, stylish, and memorable, creating an experience that lingers long after you’ve played.

And the characters? They’re fantastic. Each one feels distinct and interesting, and many are super dominant women who are both terrifying and alluring. Characters are a huge part of the game’s appeal, dominant, stylish, contradictory, and oddly human for a bunch of literal hellspawn. There are lots of faces and motivations thrown at you quickly, but none feel pointless. Every character hints at something nasty, tender, or twisted under the surface. They’re all unique, well-designed, and yes, incredibly hot, and you get plenty of interactions that already show the depth of each one.

The visuals are a major step up compared to the developer’s older games. The renders are clean and detailed, and the character designs feel polished and distinctive. Animations aren’t Hollywood-level, and some of the men can look a bit uncanny, but they’re solid enough to convey action and emotion without breaking immersion. The music and SFX match the tone perfectly, enhancing the eerie, gothic atmosphere. The overall presentation is thoughtful and smooth. The UI, and small quality-of-life touches make the game feel accessible and polished, contributing to a seamless experience.

Content-wise, the game is unapologetically femdom-forward, if that’s your kink, it will stick in your head long after a session. Letting players tailor content like futa or BDSM is a thoughtful design choice, making the game more accessible without sacrificing its dark, edgy identity. For those who aren’t into it, most extreme content is optional or skippable, and the horror and world-building alone make the game worth exploring. Whether you’re into femdom, futa, or just love dark, erotic, and twisted settings, this game delivers. Honestly, it might already be one of the best in its genre, and I frankly can’t wait for the next update.

Bottom line: this game is uniquely atmospheric, well-crafted for its niche, and genuinely intriguing story-wise. It feels polished, captivating, and full of potential, standing out as one of the most compelling and stylish dark-fantasy femdom experiences. With mood, mystery, and a cast of very dominant ladies, it’s worth playing. I’m genuinely excited to see where the story goes, this is easily the best femdom game I’ve played, and fans of dark, twisted, and seductive worlds won’t regret it.

(Review of v0.4.7)

Animations and SFX are quite vanilla but I reckon the story itself and the setting are remarkably good. Most sex scenes are of the extreme kind but every character is interesting in some or other way. I'd say in this case it is fitting to have many possible LIs, and it is up to you to have your "fun" with them or reject them while you try and survive another day without losing yourself and keep figuring what's going on in this nightmarish place.

The models are also varied in age and looks, not to mention, shall I say "species"... Being bitten by Bellatrix is very erotic and the outfits are very stylish.

Though I skip most of the extreme sex scenes, I find the story quite captivating and am looking forward to seeing more. The developer even had the courtesy of letting you set how much futa, BDSM and other content you'd like to find along the way to suit a wider audience. Well done!

Name should be 50 shades of Femdom. Maybe be more clear that femdom is basically the ONLY thing here? If that's your thing great. If not? No point even downloading. Why am I here? He used Lovecraft in his description.That always gets me to at least look. I now believe we should not allow ANY dev to use the terms Lovecraftian or Lovecraft in any of their game descriptions as so many obviously DO NOT understand the implications and use it just to lure people in.

The atmosphere of the surroundings is beautiful, calming and strong. And the idea that a city like this exists is exciting.
Too bad there aren't more masculine types of women. I don't like earrings, skirts, high heels and stuff like that.

The rating I want to give is actually 3.5, but I guess we can't

LIKES:

- I really liked the game, the storyline made me curious and I will definitely continue as new updates come out.

- The characters are nice and different very well made. I especially liked bellatrix for some reason

Dislikes

- I absolutely hated the UI, it takes up half the screen and even if you hide it, there is a huge black space (you can hide it with H by the way)

- The animations could be better but they are enough BUT as in some games I wish there were camera angles, especially POV! not just one angle with simple animation

- Definitely more animations should be added for each hot moment, you only see 1 animation per scene

I hope DEV continues to improve, good luck

Best horror/femdom game in the site period. Possibly the best or second best femdom game ever, period. Only negative thing I have to say is that the game needs some more vaginal sex instead of just ass worshipping or licking feet. I feel like most femdom games, this one included think that femdom has to have these weird fetish stuff to be femdom, when that is not the case.

Most of the girls except for the latex nuns that have their face covered in latex are extremely beautiful, almost all of them feel unique. The ambiance and setting has a distinct horror flair which only adds to the experience.

I've played dartoz (the author)'s other works but didn't like them. However, I do like this one. What I like about this one is that the girls fight over you and they are all desperate to get you.

It's a pretty good femdom game. The story is decent and the renders are good. It's a bit short so far but the dev is working on finishing another game and has had a pretty good track record so far. This is his most polished project and it really shows.

I dislike how grotesque the male models are sometimes though. Give it a try if your into femdom.

The best femdom game so far! The story is engaging, the design is stunning, and the characters are incredibly well-developed. There are so many choices and paths to explore, making each playthrough unique.

Okay, this is one of those games that you really wish you would have waited to discover for a few more years, because it's got a long development cycle. That being said, what is here is absolutely great and extremely unique. Very few games will scratch the exact same itch in the same ways, it has an intriguing plotline involving the nature of Blackmore and the MC's reasons for being there which seems to be developing nicely already over the 4 days which existed when this review was posted. While this seems like it will be somewhat of a slow burn, it also isn't one of those games that teases you and leaves you hanging with little to no action during the build-up phase - you jump straight into some pretty extreme content from Day 1, and things only get crazier from there. Some of the fetishes in this game are very niche, like bloodplay or human ashtray stuff, and the renders are also very appealing for the most part and depending on your tastes. Gameplay so far is mostly either "search the area" or "talk to the NPCs", there has been no combat, no real need to use items outside of a few dialogue encounters (able to use meat/booze/cigarettes in at least one place each that I have found, still haven't found any use for candy though...) and the one "skill" for which I managed to unlock training didn't actually let me level it up yet, I think it's gated behind more content with the trainer NPC which hasn't been created yet. So while right now there are still a lot of systems that aren't really being used, I see at least a dozen different skills on the character page so it looks like the dev has plans to seriously expand this system in time. I am concerned that the extreme complexity of this game (branching paths, dozens of different competing factions/individuals) might impede development, after all we've only got about 4 days of game time from about 2 years of dev time so far. Possibly a lot of the front-end work is now done, systems, UI and story conceptualization/outlining may have been completed and development will now be streamlined, but until we know for sure how this is going to go, I would honestly urge most people to wait on this one for a bit, so as not to tease yourselves with an unfinished product with such promising potential. Waiting 6-12 months per update for something this good is going to give most people a real hard time!! If you can handle the anticipation, what is here is quite fun and will occupy you for at least an evening of good fun.

I think this game is going to be Darktoz masterpiece. Peak of femdom games. Blackmore ambience is terrifying and alluring. Every character tries to use you like a pawn. Choices and progression of story is very good writed. Render and character designs are so good. If you into femdom games dont miss this game. Instead ıf you interested futa nevertheless dont miss this.

This is the best femdom game I've played up until now. Fantastic world building and story, great characters and scenes, and I appreciate the variety of the content! Crossing my fingers more comes out soon.

Amazing game. Dark theme, bad ends, music choice, render quality are all top tier.
Huge fan of the liking system "char x liked that" or "char y wants to help you" is very fun when you get to see it.
Huge variety of characters as well.
Also the protagonist is not really the "main character" but a character who has lots of choices for who he wants to side with, which is a fun element.

Will definitely replay once it has been completed.

The story is good, characters have a personality and are actually likable.

For the full game, I'd like to see an overhaul on the character sounds.
Music is great and fits very well.

Hopefully there will be lots of content and actual playtime (and a reason to reply with different decisions that yield different outcomes).

The only thing that bugs me is that all bodies tend to look almost the same. There should be more variety to it.

Monsters and shit are a big no-go, though.

Not into femdom and the whole BDSM thing but I greatly enjoyed this game's overall presentation and its horror aspects.

The writing is good with interesting characters and an intriguing setting. And even though the game is primarily focused on specific fetishes most of them are optional or avoidable and some of the choices have an impact on the characters and story.

The visuals in this game are what drew me in the most though. The game is very stylistic and pleasant to look at, even the UI and the dialogue box are neatly designed, and the sound effects and music in this game are chosen really well and fit the atmosphere perfectly.

Overall I would recommend checking this game out just for the design and horror esthetics alone, but the story itself is intriguing with its supernatural elements and the sexual fetishes it focuses on are well made too.

I'm not a big fan of female domination, especially to this degree, but this game has such a breadth of quality and talent throughout that I'd consider it a disservice to not give it a positive review.
----
First off, the visuals are great. They aren't 10/10 as the men often look strange (I imagine due to trying to make them seem very effeminate), as well as some body and facial posing, but overall it looks great. Attractive women, a diverse range of visual styles and body types for each (although most of them are just tight-waisted and big-tittied women to fit it's audience), but regardless it's great.
----
The game has a wide arrange of kinks related to female domination, and is probably the most comprehensive female domination game on the site. It also gives you the ability to participate or not in much of it, while also having story-implications for doing so or not, which makes sense and works well.
----
The writing is pretty good. I'm not going to argue it's a great story. The reason for this is because the very restrictive premise means that the vast majority of characters are very one-dimensional. Once you figure out their kink and one personality trait, that's them sorted. There's nothing more than that.

However, the amount of choices is great. It's kinda confusing which choices matter and which ones don't and in what way, because the game doesn't really feel like it telegraphs it as well because some are very similar to each other, but ultimately the choices are at appropriate points and actually service to make the experience more enjoyable.
----
Ultimately, if you're into femdom, you'll enjoy it. There's not many better femdom AVNs on here.

Erotic femdom horror with a very strong atmosphere. The game has very nice polish overall.

DarkToz has been around for a spell and has a specific style and track record. He improves with each game, but updates are rather spaced out and games often just fizzle out. Futa and femdom are the main components, this time you get to decide in advance how much if any futa you see.
