Ren'Py - Uni [v0.56.119c] [Hizor Games]

Good game, interresting characters and a lot of hentai.
Enjoyed my time with this and its quite long good anime character design and a good story so far.
Will look foreward to the updates.
Played for a few hours now.

This falls into that extremely painful category of "REALLY good game, but updates that take too long to come out with minimal content per update".

Synopsis is you play as a university schoolgirl and meet multiple different people. Depending on how you interact with these people, you have different relationships. You might get blackmailed. You might become a dom or a sub. You might get a boyfriend. You might get that said boyfriend cucked. It has a lot, and its really nice to see the FMC get corrupted over time.

Now, as hot as all this is, its also a big problem in terms of updates and playability. For updates, it makes it so a little bit of each "option" gets filled, making updates feel scarce. For playability, it means that no matter what option you pick, you'll be locked out of content. While that sounds nice, its also frustrating, as when you replay for content it'll be 70% of the same content, with 30% new content.

As for progression, its weird. Sometimes, its RNG based. Sometimes, its time based. What does that mean for you, the player? Well, it means running around the same part of town over and over, and hoping that you haven't missed anything.

This is a game I absolutely enjoyed, but if you haven't played it yet, I would heavily recommend holding off on playing this for a few more years. Installing it right now only makes consecutive updates feel disappointing and underwhelming.

The game is pretty okay to run through in a sitting. There's a light corruption mechanic that's pretty much just down to bad choice vs. good choices throughout. There's two kinky romance options and two wholesome/vanilla romance options - two guys and two girls as well, so pick what sort your prefer.

Although they don't say it outright, if you get invested onto one route, you'll probably end up locking the other out, since their first few date events happen to overlap. Not only that, the more wholesome romance options require you to have very little corruption level and choose less slutty options.

You can choose which clubs you go to, which affect which H scenes you end up seeing. For a sluttier mc, I'd go with cheerleading. For a wholesome mc, go for the track club - there you just play middleman between two rivals. Haven't ran through the "yearbook" club yet.

You're also able to choose which job to go through with. Both jobs have slutty options as you progress, but cafe job has almost twice the content that the bakery job does. Bakery job wants you to suck up to your boss, whereas the cafe job makes your character constantly provactive and horny. The slutty option ALWAYS gives you more money, which you need to avoid getting for sale .

No sound effects or voice acting....pretty nice art CGs though.

Overall, look forward to seeing how the game evolves!

It's very hard not to like this game for me, its a 2dcg with a lot of tags that I like, ofc there are things I dislike about it, like softlocks, or not being told when the story for now is finished, yet I believe that this game is going to be one of the best Ren'Pys I will ever play, when it's fully completed. I love the art, the freedom of choices, is meh, the clothing doesn't seem to matter much, that's what would be my picks on what to improve for now. But I will just hope that the game will develop into the Amazing Ren'Py which it's supposed to be.

That you can direct the character to the fantasies exactly the way you want. I would like to thank everyone who has developed a game that you will want to play many times, leaving the choices between dom/sub up to you.

Haven't played much of this game and at this point I don't plan to. The dream segments, while occasionally interesting, obliterate the pacing of the main story, and having no visuals to them, aren't super fun to read through, save for a couple of the better ones.

At present, there's not a whole lot of freedom in your choices. You wake up, fight the menus to go to school, go to work, wander around town, and go to bed. Unfortunately the vast majority of the tasks here don't feel like they build up to much. School only ever really results in getting raped by Matt from blackmail, club doesn't happen enough for it to go anywhere nearly as much as the rest of your options, work gets you sexually harassed by customers and your boss, and wandering around town gets you taken advantage of.

Unfortunately if you're not into non-con, it's very hard to dodge it here. I ended my first run because I soft locked myself into blowing Matt, and I'm ending my current run after every interaction in-game I've had resulting in rape or the threat of rape.

Even if you're into non-con and blackmail, all you'll find here is another "sandbox" nsfw game with like 4 locations, alright art, characters I'm already forgetting the names of, and a complete absence of sound. Maybe come back in a handful of months when it's got more content, praying it's less rapey, or just skip this one and move on to sandbox nsfw game with a "landlady" and "roommate" #47.

it's a visual novel so no gameplay is to be expected, but the story is really goofld, it has many branch and one character story interavt with another, and the mc is not an idiot slut that always goes with the flow no matter what, there are choices that makes the mc at least resist to be played with.

This game has lovely visual design, stunning art which beats VNs made by many professional studios and situations heroine finds herself are often incredibly hot. It has 4 main love interests (2 male, 2 female) and allows to play both dom, sub or vanilla.

Sounds like great game? Well it would be , but as for now (v0.45) all of it is ruined by a couple of poor game design choices. First, game poses itself as sandbox, while it isn't. It has city layout with 4 or 5 locations, but you can't really choose between them. You can's skip the school, nor you can go to the school in the evening. So all "gameplay" here is just clicking same 3 buttons over and over.

This alone wouldn't be a big deal, but in combination with second one it makes the game unbearably frustrating: there is no way to track your relationship progression. Events with another characters pop up randomly during daily routine, and if you fucked up their route, or in some cases finished it... they just don't. And you have no way to know about it. You are stuck clicking same buttons for days until you realize nothing is happening. Then you go back, change you decision (will it help - who knows?) and back clicking freaking buttons. I even managed to get Bad End, despite seemingly doing nothing wrong, and had to go back again of course. It was somehow worse than worst grind games despite having no grind.

This problem is fixable. They only have to do one of three:
1) Add a way track you status in relationships and secondary events sequences. Ether directly or through hints.
2) Remove city layout (which serves no purpose anyway) and clicking altogether.
3) Make it meaningful. Considering it would significantly change game structure - probably not the best idea.

Overall, this game has potential, but I would be cautious about it. While it's anything but empty, it was in development for five years, knowing that amount of content looks less impressive. Only heavy lifting here are CGs and game is about half done, with some characters only just introduced. This pacing of development combined with successful patreon gives me a few sad concerns...

An excellent dating-sim/life-sim/school/work and honestly an everything sim.
Now, if you find yourself locked out of some paths, you will unfortunately end up with a lot of events being... uneventful. The solution is to let go of any moral compass you may have and indulge the inner slut you'd want the MC to be.

I'm looking forward to more renders being complete. The game is styled quite well, with a simple coherent design throughout, and decent quality of life features such as the keyboard shortcuts to quickly jump between locations. And, of course, I do appreciate the cheat mod being included.

Best of luck and I can't wait to see more.

Essentially no sound. Basically no gameplay.
Really, really like the story. It reacts to basically everything you do and gives you different dialogue and choices depending on how far along you are with the other storylines.

Review for v0.44.104. Great potential, wasted in a repetitive gameplay.

Good game with ton's of content. Art is great. Very frequent updates keep the game fresh and me coming back. Although i don't play every single one (maybe one out of 2/3 bigger patches) I never regret playing again.
Art 4/5
Story 4.5/5
Gameplay 4/5
Fapability 5/5
Music 4/5
DevSupport 5/5
Originality 5/5

Really a lovely game !

I wasn't sure about it at first thinking it would be pretty much the same as most games regarding a female prot after reading the tags (forced nonsense i thought), but i was really surprised how you are able to really guide the MC through the whole story regarding your taste and avoid everything you are not comfortably with (with the right decisions that is).
Great routes which cover different tastes.
First i was only looking into the Yuri routes - but than i couldn't stop and try all of them...

You have F(sub/dom/love) and M(sub/love) options or even the go all out slutty way (full corruption - as i said, all of it is optional if you wish so - even with the chance of getting out of those realtionships/blackmail if you like so).

Beside that you even have a early choice which kinda establishes your MC's personality!
Either:

1). Strong and reliable
2). Girly, flirty but no bullshit
3). Shy and a little more introverted

(even tho these are just differences in how the MC acts, you are still able to make the same decisions - so no biggie)

It has sandbox elements but you are even provided with a integrated cheat mode for making it an easy ride and you are able to unlock pretty much everything through it.

I would suggest giving the game atleast a download and try and see if it's for you !

Positives
+++ Great art (it's on par with some VN's made by professional teams)
++ Good character designs
++ Appreciate the MC's outfit & hairstyle customization
++ Appreciate the MC being able to stand up for herself if the player so chooses, in a lot of porn games they'll just roll over and get fucked
++ It's cool to see different routes interacting with each other
+ The writing can get endearing when it wants to. The karaoke side story was a nice read
+ Every game should have a cheat menu and this game has it

Not sure/suggestion
. When I play games with female MC's, I tend avoid submissive situations and try to stick with vanilla content. This game, from what I've seen in the CG gallery, seems like it has more sexual content for submissive MC's. Because of the corruption bar, I'm assuming that that's the point/focus of this game, so I'm not considering this a negative. Just leaving this as a note/feedback for the dev in case he wants to make more vanilla content in the future.
. Maybe put a system that prevents the same random events from repeating consequentially. In the bakery I would sometimes get "feed the cat" 2 or 3 times in a row, in the "walk around" I would get the lottery guy 2 or 3 times in a row too


Negatives
--- The characters just disappear after their route is done.
-- I'm not sure what's the point of the city layout. Maybe the dev intended to have more activities and different locations, but right now it's barren and gameplay's design forces the player into a routine of picking the same locations throughout the week
-- Speaking of which, the gameplay kind of doesn't exist. On paper it kind of works like a sandbox, in practice you're pretty much forced into a routine
- Considering the tone of the game, feels like the rape attempt by those 2 characters should have bigger repercussions
- MC's backstory is too tragic/edgy for this kind of game. Personal preference obviously, but it threw me off a bit how the opening is dark, then develops into a normal slice of life, and then I'm reminded that this is a porn game when your boob gets groped out of nowhere. There was a moment there that I thought this would have a more nuanced/deeper story, all because of the intro
- Not sure what's the point of homework and grades

All in all, I recommend this. Wish there was more vanilla content, but it's worth at least one playthrough

First, I'll explain my rating system. To me story counts more than art.
Play-ability is factored in so is replay-ability.
Technical writing ~ plot-holes and so on.
Game mechanics ~ use of RNG, fight mechanics, building, choice systems...

What this game has going for it.
The art is good. The story premise is good, it has problems though.

The RNG is to random. I break the two boys up in the hall on the 2nd day or so and go walk in town and find the Chinese restaurant and am dragged into an alley by them and if you don't run you get raped.
She doesn't even report them! ~ no cops nothing! WTF.
So I replayed from start multiple times. Then just created saves before each location and reloaded. There are countless encounters that come way to early in game because of the RNG.

My suggestion is the developer use the characters corruption level to determine what can be in the RNG encounter system.

Then we have an issue of what the author considers corruption. Apparently the author thinks complacency or an unwillingness to go against others is corruption. Because you have the school project with Venn diagrams if she simply goes along with the person to avoid arguments the author takes it as being corrupted. In RL it is pretty much anything but that. I won't go into that here though.

This is repeated when it comes to the boss of the bakery and his attitude.
All in all I found a large number of actions he is raising corruption for that really has no basis in corruption.

The author rushes the corruption process. Day 1 of class you are groped. The option to allow him to continue shouldn't even exist unless her corruption is greater than 0. At 0 corruption the only option should be slap and scream.

The game advertises you are in control of the character not just along for the ride. So then the corruption should be clear choices. Not stuff you might do to simply avoid arguments.
The character becoming corrupt should be a in the form of she is exposed to something new that isn't so far above the level of her current willingness to accept. By being exposed to it she finds she enjoyed herself or not to whatever extent. If she likes it the her level increases it could even require multiple similar events to raise it up.

Excellent artwork, memorable characters, partial customization (hairstyle and outfits) and several great routes to go through. This game rarely gets updated, but the existing content is definitely worth checking out.

Spent about 2 hours playing through early days. Run into events that lead matt into blackmailing me and getting me expelled, causing a bad end with my only save locked into that same bad end. Nah thats fine I didnt want to continue reading either.

I played Kate and Violet's route. And I very much liked Kate's route, really that may be the best Romance route I have seen in a while. The MC and Kate are really too cute together and their scenes are wholesome. I rarely play games with Female Protag and Lesbian, but this game really made me want to play more games of this genre. The art is really good. As I told Kate looks really cute and is the best character, period. I will be eagerly waiting for more of Kate's content. Liked Violet's route a lil bit, tried Matt's route, really hated the guy so stopped it. I am really glad the corruption is optional and you could just be with Kate .
Good luck with the game Dev. Will be eagerly waiting for more updates. And seriously, kudos on the art. It's really good.

This is a visual novel with choices sprinkled in.

- Pro:
- Well drawn art
- Uncensored
- Very easy and simple map, no need to search or find out what to do
- The sex that there is, is about submission, humiliation (possible to have other results through choices)

- Con:
- Very very repetitive: You sleep, go school, go work, take a walk, day after day
- As of 05-2022 very little sex scenes (after 2 hours of play); a lot of scenes happen merely in text
- Developments and corruption are really really slow; for a sex scene to happen you seem to work though a dozen of other events without sex

Play it if you do not mind a lot of reading and repetition

A nice amount of content paired with decent writing in an experience that is overall marred by inconsistent art quality and the incessant worst possible placement for the text box. Sometimes the male genitalia will look like actual mushrooms, and other times the art in entire scenes will look great. There is almost no effort put into the 'fluids', and it usually tends to either be nonexistent or just regular white strips with nothing else.

The worst part is that at least 80% of the scenes have everything blocked (not censored) by the text box. The text itself is almost always acting as an almost comically perfect censor bar for the actual goods, so you're really just getting the idea of the art. This is a highly frustrating thing that makes almost no sense at all, as you'd think that they'd want you to see the work they put in. On top of that, the writing is at its weakest during the lewd events, as it tends to be very short sentences that don't do much for the imagination. Normally that's fine when the art backs it up, but it just doesn't.

The longest spans of writing tend to be the dream segments, but those have no art at all, so it makes at least some sense that they're not 5 clicks away from being through.

All in all, could be decent, but ends up falling into the category of most of these games. They do a lot, but never actually soar in any category. Jack of all trades at its core. The absolute lack of real choice for your character is a given, but also something to be noted in a game supposedly about your own choices. They're always Yes or No in situations, and when it comes to characters, sometimes you have a Maybe.
