Ren'Py - The Tyrant [v0.9.6] [Saddoggames]

best game I have ever tried with a bit of everything, continue like this I want to see more chapter and more story of these 3 girl



lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll

- The game has some very hot scenes if you enjoy corruption and NTR, however, within this ridiculous plot they lose a bit of impact. Also, game is completely messed up and makes no sense at times, I mean, at one moment I was already fking the girls and suddenly in the next one they act as if nothing happens between us, Is this the developer's idea of freedom that he mentioned?? It clearly needs to be polished.

-Renders are a bit outdated

- There are only two tunes, better than nothing I suppose.

- I like Sandbox games, so that is a + for me.

Overall, despite its issues, It's not that bad, it's not boring, so I'd give it a 7/10. Recomended only for those into NTR.

This one is very bad, I don't get the high rating it has (0.9.6 version post rework). First off, the plot has an interesting premise, having to play with the fiction that you are a criminal, but that quickly gets sidelined to a minor story as you just go around the world like a sex crazed man in order to get the love or corruption points needed to advance with each girl. The writing is bad, not only because it clearly is not the language of the developer, but because characters behave in completely unbelievable, ilogical or stupid way. You join the gang and you are inmediately placed above your "mother's friends dad" (your own, obviously, in the non-Patreon version) who has been undercover for a year. He must be the worst undercover cop ever to be so quickly undone by a kid that only has delievered one package to earn that. Worst gang ever. Not to mention they keep about how you are a "bad boy" (yes, with the quotes) like it was something serious, when it obviously is hilarious outside the mind of a 15 year old; you may be a criminal, a thug, a gangster, whatever, but a bad boy give me a break. Then you have the paths: love or corruption, which basically means basically being a human being and just being an asshole for no particular reason, like there were no other possible ways in which a woman can be corrupted than being a complete jerk. At least it has a built in cheat system, so gathering the points and farming the open world can easily be skipped.

Render quality is the only thing going for the game and it's not increible, it's fine and character models are nice and diverse, but that's that. Animations are very few, with complete sex scenes without animations, and those that exist are very bad. The music is annoying so I turned it off, and don't recall any serious sounds besides it. And it does have bugs, like characters missing in scenes, and more serious things.

So, all in all, there are much better games out there to spend your time on than this one.

Review for The Tyrant v0.9.6:

The girls are cute, but the game is a mess. The hint system is abysmal and the sandbox has all manner of bugs. There are renders where the interaction buttons are displayed but the character is missing. The game allows the player to make choices that cause the story to progress out of order, so some scenes don't make sense. The hint system is frequently misleading by telling the player to do one thing that can't actually be done yet.

The weekend dates have bugged dependencies. I did all of the dates, but later some of them disappeared from the weekend date selection screen. The game says that I still need to do some things I've already done to select dates that I've already seen.

The hint system should be torn out and completely redone. Not only is it missing lots of dependencies across quests/tasks, it's really tedious to switch between characters and paths. Technically, you can see all of the hints for a path at once, but... you have no idea where you actually are on that path and paths are so similar it's hard to remember.

For a game in development for 7 years, the content is extremely light.

Definitely a poor experience.

Other warnings for players considering this game:

The game lets the player turn off NTR, which is good for business. However, the game also constantly asks the player if the MC should share or prostitute their love interests. These are going to be bad for business. The game also forces the MC to be a complete asshole just to progress in the story.

Pretty LIs and a core loop that's a bit tiring.
I disliked that it can become nonsensical timewise and that very fast. but at least you don't need to reload, the NTR part I avoided because that's not my thing.
I also installed the in*est patch since it seemed nonsensical otherwise.
All in all good game but would need a bit of polish in multiple areas.

This is a game that you either love it or hate it, as the main seller is its kinks. The phasing and the sexual scenarios for me are a 10/10, as very few games have family NTR with an alpha MC. The game is old, however, and it shows in many aspects, mainly the amount of content.

Normally I try these VNs out for their erotic content/story. The tyrant is quite possibly the worst I've ever spent time on.

Reasons:

> Ridiculous barebones 'plot'
> Dialogue that will make your eyes bleed reading it
> Bug-filled mess where many events/scenes never trigger
> Lackluster scenes that try to tease far too much, and even fails at that!
> Outdated visuals

There goes 2 hrs I'll never get back ....

Pro: The story. How the corruption/love route is done.

Con/wishlist: better way to keep track/know how many points to do a specific route. Want more things to do as a gangmember. Not sure if anything is planed but want Vivian options

This game is an Old School Classic at this point that helped launch a genre. The events that went 'unseen' and only 'heard' where as impactfull as most new games. Great game and needs a renewal or continuation

Easy gameplay with minimal grind and an engaging story.
Choices between corruption and love shape the narrative, corruption has more content for now.
Needs the work on smooth progression with more renders.
Good Experience overall

Great game, sand box is amazing, plot is very good,Dev should complete the story, some of the side stuff require more polishing but overall it is kinda amazing
Render have aged a little bit, but still looks decent and has it's own charm to it

2 stars because of the mother and diane

the rest of the game is so fucking bad that i understand why the dev abandoned it multiple times, the sandbox mode becomes a skip gameplay soon enough..

while the pace of corruption starts slowly after repeating the same shit time after time you have the characters with 50 corruption before even the first week of in-game, the gameplay is su bad, bad as fucking fuck, that's why i hate sandbox games...anyway

gameplay = 1/10

another thing is the music, jesus crhist the music doesn t change, there is no sex sounds, no variety, its the same song the whole game, you can turn it off but that's not the point...

music = 0 /10

animations are fucking bad too, you have very few and they are bad, with no sounds or moaning, no choices to change the angle or whatever

animations : 2/10 (2 for the animations with the mother)

Now... the damn story had sense at the start but then what the fuck is happening later on? i don t fking know, you are a gangmember of which band? you only see a black dude and some girls ( vivian and diane) the rest of the "gang" where the fuck are they? the Bruce is a police and that's not addresed never again in the game, the only scenes with the "gang" are they sitting in the livingroom with bags, 2 guys all the game, hahaha...hilarous, bad as fuck... also there is this "leader" who choose the MC to be a member, where the fuck is he¿¿ never mentioned again, and later on is like Davide is the leader... wht the fk this game is so bad in all aspects

story -999/10

then you have the dialogues, at the start they are good but if you go corruption route the dialogues are :

SLUT slut SLUT sLUT SLUT SLUT TKAE THSI SALUT FKIGN WHRE
YEAH YOU ARE MY SLIUT AND LOVE HAD YOU TAKE MY DICK IN YOU PUSSY

im not even making fun, the ENGLISH in this game SUCKS so fucking MUCH GOD DAMNIT

DIALOGUES : A FUCKING ZERO

this game is so bad that having this rate should be banneable,

being abandoned as it was , and being this bad and with UNFINISHED choices in the basement just calls for his fucking riddance

gtfo this game, period.

I'm honestly a bit surprised how much I actually like this game. When I try to rate certain aspects of the game like writing, visuals, gameplay, sound etc. nothing really stands out. Based on that I would probably rate the game 3 stars at best, probably less. Heck, I'm not even a fan of most of the female models.

Yet somehow I really enjoyed playing it. For the record, I played with the saz mod and mostly focused on the corruption route and tried out the love and NTR paths to see what they are like.

I guess the simple reason why I really like the game is: it's not pretending to be more tha a porn game yet has just enough story and interactions to enhance the porn part of the game. That you actually can have a completely different experience depending on what path you are on is obviously a huge advantage too.

So yeah, I can't really pinpoint what it is exactly that I like about the game, it simply works perfectly for me as a porn game.

This game is so good. I played this roughly 4 months back and this is one of the "old" games that are still extremely good and I would say aged like wine. Super glad the Dev is looking to actually finish it since it's basically almost there already. It was just a bummer having to play it for the first time, getting hooked only to end up getting cut short right at the endgame. But now hopefully that wouldn't be the case in the not so far future and also hopefully more people will get to experience this masterpiece.

But of course being an NTr game, probably half of the people on this website won't even touch this at all and sure that's their loss but it's still shame to know that more people would have experience this game.

I've played this twice: vanilla and modded, and came to the conclusion that there is no reason to play without mod, as it doesn't change what's already there, just adds more content and options. It also makes changes to UI, but i think it's still terrible.
Now, this game's biggest issue, apart from being abandoned, is suspense of disbelief, or lack thereof to be exact. You see, every character has "stats" that signify your relations with them and unfortunately these stats are the biggest evidence of your actions, as if every event happens in a vacuum and all characters have short-term memory loss and almost never react to the past or acknowledge your relationship. Davide will always be friendly, if your "relation stat" is high, no matter how badly you pissed him off in the past, the girl in the bar will always greet you as if you're strangers, even if you danced with her like 100 times before, your sister may be reluctant to kiss you, even though she already gave birth to your child, etc. All events/interactions can be repeated infinitely with the same outcome until you check certain progression flags, which are described in the hints.

As for the usual:

• game is silent
• models look attractive
• scenes are usually hot, even though there are no animations
• decent replayability, depending on your preferences
• dialogue exists, but does not exceed that function
• there is no plot and I already explained why
• it's also not immersive for the same reasons
• there is no time limit
• you can't accidentally skip/miss events as they're all repeated infinitely (no idea what the blud below is yapping about)

This is one of my favorite games on this site. It is a shame that it got abandoned.

if you are looking for a vanilla love story, I don’t think this game is for you. There are hundreds of games that do it better.

To me, where this game shines is in its dark content. There are very few games with the level of NTR content found in here. I play with the SAZ mod which also expands on this concept. The optionally it provides to let you choose whether the women enjoy what is happening and whether the mc enjoys what is happening is amazing.

The story is a bit non-sensical but serves its purpose. I like the renders. The women have a bit of variety.

I have played this game so many times that I can fly through the content in about 2-3 hours, but I can see where it could be confusing as you are learning. There are many prerequisites that are not intuitive for some scenes to trigger. That’s the sandbox experience though.

Overall, I still love this game. Forced sex, NTR, sharing, and prostitution are all abundant in the dark path playthrough.

I think there's something here but it just doesnt hit the mark.

For reference, I played with the SAAZMOD, I think without, I would have gone far. The grind is a lot. The premise is interesting and models are done well.


The NTR is interesting, not sure what controls those points.

All in all, there is something there but the execution is off. Sad its abandoned though

This review is on version 0.9.4b - not surprising, seeing as the game has apparently languished for years.

For further clarity, I played this with the SAZ mod installed.

I found this game while looking at recommendations for stories which gave you the freedom to play a real scumbag. The game certainly does have a few options which fit that criteria, though they aren't terribly organic.

That's a point in the game's favor, it does have some impactful choices...but that's also pretty much the only point in the game's favor. Otherwise it's...kind of...well no, it's complete crap, truth be told.

On a minor note, the visuals are not particularly flattering. They're passable, and likely would appear better were the game not trying so incredibly hard to sexualize the environment. Something that is especially notable about the visuals is the MC himself...he's...really ugly and looks nothing like his family. Actually, none of the family members have any visual similarities.

More technically, the UI and navigation is quite poor, failing to construct a logical series of connection between sets and instead providing buttons to jump between different areas at the bottom of the screen almost at random.

But no, the largest issue by leagues is the writing. It really is simply awful. Not a single character is believable to any degree nor does the premise hold any water. It really destroys any attempt at immersing yourself for any purpose.

Overall, I just can't recommend the game for any real reason. The visuals are passable, having a choice or two is nice, but none of that makes the horrid storytelling and dialogue worthwhile.

One of the best games on F95, I wish the dev had finished it. Hopefully someone will pick up this excellent tale. Characters are entertaining and multiple paths are just plain fun. Character models are also all rather attractive.

Well done dev please come back and finish it.

It is very difficult to follow the dialogs. The names above the dialogues of the whole family are in the same color, so you can't tell who is speaking. The story and characters are not very believable. The main character speaks as if his whole family is stepfamily. As soon as the main character sees his mom and sisters in the intro he thinks about banging them regardless of your choices. It also seems very strange to be told at this point that you have the option of having a romance with them afterwards. The main character or the developer has no intention of doing that in the first place. As for the corruption option, I don't know how effective it is because after the intro I couldn't continue any further. Among the biggest reasons why I want to continue with the game more is that it's already abandoned and will never be completed and it's completely open world. The open world part seems confusing.
