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

Simple story sure, though it felt a lot more thought out than the majority of other porn VNs I've played. I really enjoyed the emphasis on humanity and empathy. I'm used to the main character of these kinds of stories often acting like a sociopath, so the ability to have it be a mostly wholesome story is a breath of fresh air.

I usually get bored of porn VNs because of their bad writing and start skipping through to see the porn. With this game, I actually read it. That's the highest praise I can give to a VN, I feel. The porn art wasn't perfect but the style kind of grew on me, and I don't mind style shifts as much as others as long as the story is good. I did recognize the slight drop in quality others have seen. I also cheated the values to make it more of a story game, for context. Really fun. I enjoy.

i figured out the controls on Android
situation is not easy due to limited number of things you see on the screen
i didn't know map layout was touchable and i could just ignore dialogue menu

Cons:
Grindy hell
Artstyle in sex is ugly and different than in the game itself
Artstyle in the game seems very AI
Not the best UI for mobile
you play as futa even if you chose female/femboy
i don't like doing dungeons
Ending is a bit flat or maybe i just took the non satisfying one

Summary: pretty good resource manager game that goes endless
i was able to finish and enjoy it only thanks to cheat menu

Unveiling the Unknown
Art : 7/10
( quite surprised with the sudden change of visuals during h - scenes . . . it was not bad but I honestly prefer the main artstyle [ probably ai ] rather than the [ mdf_an ] h - scene artstyle ) ( eye blinking was a good touch ) ( ai was used which is disappointing )

Gameplay : 6/10
( the main gameplay was a turned based dungeon crawler which you do to earn resources and upgrade stuffs . . . it was a fun gameplay loop but the game was extremely easy and also the game doesn’t really punish you if you lost a fight ) ( additionally you can effortlessly kill opponents even on immensely high dungeon rooms where the opponents have 15+ digit worth of stats . . .



Plot : 6/10
( it was engaging ) ( decent writing ) ( the prior story was somewhat interesting to me )

Entertainment : 6/10
( really liked some of the occasional jokes )


Characters : 6/10
( Mirabelle and Lyra best girl ) ( the dungeon girls were appealing too )( captivating dynamic between characters ) ( nice side characters ) ( the two different artstyle somewhat contrasts with how they look and how they act )

Soundtrack : 7/10
( good music ) ( really liked the variation ) ( decent sfx )

Fap Score : 7/10
( futanari fetishes were hot ) ( clever use of screen shake and moving to give the static image the illusion of moving during h - scenes ) ( I wish there were more vaginal play for Lily and also probably anal play to the ladies ) ( great usage of words such as plap plap , get pregnant , uuuuuuoooooooooohhhhhh , nunny cunny )

My Rating : 6/10
( the usage of ai was displeasing . . . makes me think that the story was also ai generated ) ( but overall it was a decent game with the futanari fetishes and good characters ) ( B - tier )

Very good game, I liked it, it has an interesting story and characters, fun touches of humor, the art and animations in the H scenes are simple but striking and the inclusion of voices makes it more immersive, the combat system and resource management also add a touch of originality and difficulty that makes it more entertaining, I recommend it.

I love stats !!! (and cute maid)

The drawings are great, there are quite a few customization options... But the best part is the skill tree and the dungeon. It's still basic but quite enjoyable, especially when you bring back some amazing loot.The points I don't really like are that there are no good and bad choices. And I didn't really understand if I finished the story in the end...

One of the better VNs, the pics arent amazing but there is a lot of variety and each character has a niche that they fill. Combat isnt a drag and the upgrade system is something that can be worked with.

Simply great. I loved the story and I'd love to find more games like this.
I also would have liked to have had more post-finale scenarios with the maids (either as a group or individually). My favorite character is Ophelia, totally, although I really liked all the characters, and I really disliked Kane most of the time for his behavior (⁠^⁠^⁠).

It's certainly has interesting H-tropes scenario which is the game biggest catch.
However the gameplay and even choice doesn't really amount to anything despite having multiple option to chose.
It really is, Optional as the summary described.

From dungeon crawler side is fun, but a lot of upgrade didn't really offset the amount of resource it need.
While a lot of character story is really bland, mostly because a lot of hangout lead to;
"Hey let's vent about your boss" vibe.

It's good that Cheat is an option available from the start,
but even so, player still need to trigger each character questline to unlock their scene.

The game is okay. Just okay .. The rpg mechanics are servicable. The plot is also okay, Nothing special. But the characters feel bland and uninteresting. And the huge jarring divide in the art styles between the guest art and Scarlett's art is really off putting. About the only part of this game I actually enjoyed was the bit with Juggy from MG1000 but that's this game borrowing from one of his better ones. And there's no way I could have genuinely grinded the game out without cheats.

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.
