Ren'Py - Completed - Unveiling the Unknown [v1.1.0] [TwistedScarlett]

Absolutely love the animated drawing style of some scenes, but the cookie cutter (same female with different hairstyle) look of the rest of the game is a bit disappointing. Just a small, simple game with those same drawings would be awesome. Subject matter aside, those drawings are top tier. This game is a DNF for me, mostly because other than those amazing drawings the game just didn't hold my interest. I still recognize it is a well made game.

An overall pretty good game, it's not bad, but it's not amazing either. The dungeon aspect of the game is fun, although after a while it just got repetitive and boring. The characters were fun and interesting, for the most part the story was the same. The scenes were also pretty well, although an inconsistency with the art, sometimes it looks like AI while other times it looks drawn. The story was pretty solid for the most part, while it is a pornographic game, I did think that there were some parts which could have gone into more detail and explained better. The endings were satisfactory, no complains there. Overall, I will certainly be checking out more of this developers games as I had a good enough experience with this game.

I give this game 2 stars because:

-The other reviews are overhyped, while I enjoyed playing the game, the portrait for maids and everyone else (almost) is made through AI

_The story is a 4/5 with a lot of clichés

_Would have loved to see Kane humiliated more

-Dungeon run is useless (can we finish the story without any dungeon run?) I mean the final battle doesn't require any actual battle... so it is completely useless

Our choices in the game are irrelevant since you get the ending you want in the end. No counter or whatsoever for the choices....

This game could have been way better but to give it a 5 stars would be an insult to Rance, evenicle and other games deserving 5 stars

Art is great, character dynamics and the breaking down of resistance is really attractive, and overall a good storyline as well. The combat/resources were interesting, but unfortunately gets tedious/broken near the end, I really thought once I got the custom floor upgrade I could beat the final floor for some finale (Don't do that, you just wind up crashing your game if you proceed past that).

My main complaints are a bit of a lacking cohesiveness between the main story events and hangouts (Characters who are fully submissive and at max affection still act the same in main story cutscenes, leading to weird moments like a nude ophelia you've already banged talking Kane up in main story.) but thats a nitpick, really.

The actual issue I might have is just how combat kinda felt clunky later on - maybe some form of auto attack, not sure. Information was also a tad difficult to get, which sucks because it is a surprisingly in depth combat system. Overall, a recommendation.

This might be the best completed Ren'Py game I have ever played.
As a fan of futa/femboy on female content, but also finding cucking/cheating to be tiresome I guessed I'd hit a certain point and bounce off. But none of the girls are in a relationship, more like a contract or tradition for one of them to continue the Hero's bloodline.

The characters are all decent, some have more content and personality then others, but most of the time the main cast are well done. The villains, other then the Queen, however are hardy even on screen except as faceless 'generals' who just die.

The dungeon diving is fun, has some decent mechanics with rouge-lite RPG fights scaling from single digits to millions of damage. Using just as many resources if you want to get even close to maxing out certain upgrades for each character and the manor. The issue is in the balance and grinding times, especially with how odd the 'newgame+' resets all upgrades but not the story. So you won't be trying out the bad/good paths, just adding more griding for no real reason.

Final Thoughts

I really would like to see the Dev try making a game like this, (or even reworking this game) but have the systems interact with each other and fleshed out more.
It was fun but each aspect just never hit the full hope/potential I saw in it.

TLDR

Generally lighthearted visual novel with a dungeon you can compleatly ignore if you want.
Every part of this game is a solid 9/10 that did not reach it's full potential, pulling it down to a overall 7.

For me this is and average/good game there are thinks that i don't like and thinks that i like, here i wanted seriously to put 3.5/5 but because i can't i decided to put a 3/5. I kinda liked the story, the sex scenes are good, the characters i think mostly are average, the protagonist is not my favourite and the pregnancy is just an ending if i remember correctly so yes, for this i decided to give a 3/5 instead of the 4/5.

v1.1.0

The best descriptor for this game is “good”. No parts of this experience could be described as bad, but neither can it be described as great. The story is good, if linear and non-adaptive. The characters are interesting and have personality, but they dont really have any character development or change in any real way. The protagonist has different personalities that you can project, but cant really evolve or develop, remaining pretty two dimensional. All im trying to say that this game is made well, if a bit uninspired in its creation.

The one major negative i have for this game is the art. Make no mistake, the art at the beginning and middle of the game are great. Its detailed and a lot of effort was put into it, plus the animations are smooth and well made. But by the end game point you start seeing scenes that are just rough sketches with rough animation. A massive fall in quality compared to the formal half of the game. It is also a very jarring transition as well considering just how quick it drops off.

Overall a well made game that cant quite be considered “finished”, judging by the incomplete art on the latter half of the game. Still worth a download and playthrough if you are even mildly interested in what this game offers

It's good, if the game didn't abandon the hand drawn images at the end i think it would be a more solid 4, now it's almost a 3*.

The story is plausible, which is good.

The characters don't have much depth/growth, but there is a reason why things happen the way they do, and it's really well explained/done, so it's more of a "shame" that wasn't better explored

The writing is pretty good, sex-wise. Actually i thought the author was a woman because the writing kinda fits there, the smut, build up and so-so. Kinda vanilla, mostly blowjobs/vaginal, besides a few encounters with the dungeon merchants that do some extra.

The combat is serviceable, but gets kinda boring after a while, a little before the game ends, so eh.

Overall 3/5. A VN RPG that "starts off great" with a set up for an interesting world with lots of promise, however, the game gets worse as you go, the poor pacing, lack of impact, and inconsequential story really made it a chore to finish

Story 3.5/5. Story starts off strong and interesting, presenting the world, characters, and goals really well, it has several good set ups and pay off, and the writing is very consistent with its in universe rules. The problem is it takes a while to get to the next part of the story and at no point do you feel any threat to your MC and FMCs, this ultimately resulted in a dragged out and boring experience.

Characters 3/5. The FMCs are great, each with their own personalities, "challenges", and growth. The problem is, for the most part, their arcs happens off screen, meaning you barely see them affected by their challenges, their challenges never affect you, and you don't see them face their challenges and grow, you only know this because they tell you. Add that to the fact that it gets resolves really quickly, by the time its done it feels like it never happened. Also by the end of the story all their personalities mostly become loyal horny sex addicts

Gameplay 2.5/5. The core gameplay is: dungeon run for loots, use loots to upgrade, and repeat. It starts of great, an exciting dungeon to explore with a big upgrade tree to complete, BUT, it gets really repetitive, no big mechanic ever gets introduced so by your 8th run or so everything is the same, only the numbers get bigger

Visual 2/5. Usual edited AI generated art work, they are either character stills, icons, monsters, or background. No other art for events or action scenes.

Adult Content 4/5. Ignoring the grind get to them, they come in 2 kinds of art, the AI generated and the hand drawn. The AI ones are pretty meh. The hand drawn however are very visually appealing and refreshing, they are however mostly just an image.

It's kinda long, and you need to do some grind (there is a cheat mode tho) but at the end of the day it has an interesting story, and I end up liking most of the characters and scene's. At the beginning, I didn't like the type of combat of the game, but when I got 2 hours into it, I was immersed in the battles. (sorry if It's kinda hard to read, English is not my first language)

Grinding the optional dungeon was a bit annoying after a while but honestly the scenes you get with the girls are some of the best on this site, especially for a futa protagonist. A few of the scenes are even wholesome despite you know, it being a porn game based on a harem of maid and adjacent girls.

A game with a simple story, but good after all. I love the gameplay with battles per turn in the dungeon with each heroe with hers habilities. The gameplay between the days help to not be a linear history and just clicking to advance.

One of the best visual novels I've ever read. I have over 15 years of experience in this, so I know what I'm talking about. This game is about pure, unadulterated domination. I really liked the execution of the idea, because there are a couple of other games with a similar plot, but they trivialize and distort everything in favor of the grotesque. This is an ode to domination.

This is my first review on the site since register (8 years ago), and who would tell me that it would be for a VN game of all things (not my thing).
What does this game that's so special? It can maintain a realistic mood with the characters, and conduct it with your decisions. It's nothing otherwordly, the game has the scenes it has and there's no branching paths, but is something esential that I find many lack.
Is it a netori game? Yeah, but it has the progression and end you want. Is it heavy in the corruption/manipulation? Not superficially, but Ophelia comentary on one of the endings broke my heart seeing how deep it can be.
Being RenPy allows for easy backtracking for viewing multiple choices. Every character is lovely, and I'll miss them very much.

The animated scenes look half-done, but it's an artistic expression that I feel it adds to the experience. The gameplay is solely a non-loss economy game really detached from the whole game, but ambience fits within the story. The story is very good, to the point of desiring it to be made in an OVA series. Hope to hear from the bunch in the future.

I find that I like this game a bit more than MG 1k. This game has a better story and it seems more finished. Its buggy at times and the combat isn't as good as MG 1k but the art is more consistent all the way through. There are some clearly cut corners and unfinished sections and it grinds my gears with how easy they are to spot.

This is the most expansive story in an h-game that has ever drawn me in. The different maids had great and distinct personalities that each even stayed in tact through their story progression/corruption even in the face of the slightly diverging paths that each come to a dramatically different ending, especially for the NPCs.

The dungeon crawling being optional is a bit of a sneaky lie, since it rewards you heavily with scenes and npcs that only appear in the dungeon, but I love the system overall. It feels like a great blend of an engaging story with great writing, sparce-but-well-timed humor and, if you choose to play the game without cheats, hours of play time. The dungeon combat is intuitive and doesn't feel like a slog. SFX were amazing.

And on top of all that the MTF gender option has transpositive dialogue?!

Pros:
- Incredibly strong story
- Amazing scenes
- Amazing girls
- Good pacing between H and gameplay
- High amount of scenes

Cons:
- Combat isn't as good as it could be
- Dungeon mechanics aren't fleshed out
- Dungeon must be done once per day so the other 2 cons stand out more.

Extremely good masturbation material. Highly recommend.

This was an unexpected gem. The splash/character art doesn't appeal to me, but the sex scene art and writing is so hot that I can forgive it. I think very few authors on this site know how to write a good sex scene, let alone a harem, but this one delivers. It's got personalities that aren't braindead, interesting scenes, good sex drive, and loads of corruption.

First, the artwork. mdf-an's art isn't the usual amateurish slop churned out by most games. It's sketchy, but the perspectives are unique and full of care. The poses show a real understanding of how bodies work. They fuck how I like to fuck. The other artwork in the game is ok, but the change in style is very jarring. Most minor characters have brief scenes done in the other style, and they range from mediocre to decent.

The writing is really where this game shines. The relationships are built on empathy and releasing a lot of pent up sexual & emotional frustration, which is much hotter than girls fawning over your typical passive protagonist (or raging asshole) for no apparent reason. I won't say that every scene is incredible (some are pretty bland), but there are way more hits than misses. This game also has the only remotely plausible harem scenario I've ever seen on this site. I'm not saying this is Shakespeare, but the bar for writing in porn games is incredibly low. This game flies over them.

The gameplay is pretty shallow. In fact, the only interesting part about it is the "meta" progression through the massive research & talent trees. It's easy and easily broken. At least it's not time consuming and doesn't really matter. Who plays porn games for the gameplay, anyway?

The game falls off as you get past most of the maid scenes and they run out of mdf-an artwork. For a bit, I felt like I was in an anime for teens, and the girls couldn't stop monologuing about the demon war (sorry, I couldn't care less about your fantasy world). It's worth it for some great epilogue scenes, though.

5/5 because it made me cum a lot and didn't waste my time on bullshit.

Loved the artstyle, loved the gameplay, loved all the extra things to do. Eventually the gameplay gets easy and you just beat every enemy until you decide to stop or until every buff runs out, but before that point I have no complaints. Only 'complaint' is there not being more content :^). I love the girls!
