Ren'Py - Vae Victis - Khan: Conquer, Ravish, Breed [v0.13.7] [Doorknob22]

This is a visual novel with a very basic strategic layer that ties the stories together and gives players a bit of challenge as well as a little bit of choice of which female ruler to subjugate next.

ART
The 3D artwork ranges from quite good (and fappable) to pretty bad (e.g. the intro story.) Breasts look distinctly unnatural in some poses. The ladies are very diverse in appearance. There is something for everyone. Personally though, I find this a weakness since you are forced to look at a lot of flesh that you might find repulsive. (For me, it's GILFs, tomboys, obese, etc.) Some scenes are animated, which is very nice.

GAMEPLAY
You can conquer and develop provinces on a strategic map. However, this layer is extremely rudimentary and the way you are unable to exceed a strict maximum troop limit means you barely even have a real choice of which province to attack next. To weaken the enemy rulers, you can first "infiltrate" their realms, visual novel style. You can choose whether to throw conquered rulers in your dungeon and use them as breeding bitches or put them on your council (and use them as your breeding bitches), but due to their submissive and forgiving nature, it doesn't feel like this choice matters much. Throwing them in your dungeon is called "irreversible", but usually you get another chance to put them on your council anyway. There is no gameplay around breaking their will or corrupting them. You can knock them up, and they spawn a lot of kids, but the fantasy feels diluted by the lack of feedback of when births occur and what happens to the kids. (You do get to see the ladies pregnant though.)

WRITING
The writing is pretty good and there is actually some decent world building going on. However, the personalities of the female cast are just ridiculous. They hate your guts, you ravish them and then they love you and want to bear your children. It always plays out the same.

If I made a game like this, I would beef up the strategic gameplay, add gameplay (and scenes) for breaking or corrupting women in your dungeon and cut down on the lengthy click-through VN parts. Oh, and maybe find some use for all your royal bastards...

For fapping, I'd honestly rather just look at a gallery of the hottest pictures and animations.

Great game. Just play it.

• Incredibly diverse cast with different body types, races and personalities.
• Freedom to choose either domination or seduction paths.
• Replay value.
• A lot of content as of v0.11 (took me 25 hours to reach the end of the version, and that's because I only did the domination path).
• Incredibly well-written dialogue.
• Some depraved kinks here and there. Nice.
• Surprisingly good gameplay, both the combat and the kingdom management. The game is very well-coded too.
• Ability to choose between bushy and trimmed pubic hair for the girls, as well as being able to toggle some of the kinks.
• QUEEN YIDRIL'S ASS (very important)

And that's about it. This game definitely had plenty of care put into it. I can't wait to see how far this game will go, because it is certainly shaping up to be one of the best porn games in recent times.

V0.11.3 I had played this a long time ago, was impressed but it didn't have much in content, well I just gave it another go, and I was very impressed at the changes, updates, quality and experience.

This is a bit of an flashback to old games with the Genghis khan or Conan type games of taking over other countries and managing your realm in small ways. It is fun, simple and not complicated.

Now insert the intrigue (great idea) and the sex and porn and you have something kinda special.

Some reviewers comment on the rapey stuff, well it is 100 percent avoidable as a seduction/gentleman path exists. I play that, and there is zero rape on that path.

The adventures are well done, the interactions are very good. The english is excellent and the conversations are very well done, its not choppy, stupid, and makes sense in the a world such as this.

Quality of the images is good, seems to be getting better as well. Lots of different characters and lots of choices - seems to always be a choice so far if you want a character or not, or how to approach them.

It is still in development, so things I find lacking might come later thus the 4 stars. Really needs more interactions in the palace, more development with the current cast of characters. A better - perhaps deeper relationship system with the ladies you have met. A relationship panel would be awesome.

Excellent story, engaging porn, fun gameplay - I am looking forward to the future of this one.

I like this one! Actual gameplay mechanics, a fun story, fairly hot scenes and the option to make quite brutal choices fairly often. Makes the setting believable. The GoT vibes (clearly intended) are a bonus.

Perhaps the mechanics could be fine-tuned further but still deserves a solid 4.5 rating and I'm eager to see more of this one.

Review for v0.11.3

Pros: Interesting Story, MANY characters with different Races, Pregnancy (not fake big belly), Mythical Creatures, good Animation and Pictures
Cons: bugs from time to time, some mechanics can be overwhelming , Dark tune (not exactly a con but might be for some people)

Overall: 4.5 but since it's on the higher end, I can't give it a 4!
Highly recommended!

i enjoy good games proper stories and not just porn, luckily this one provides all !

its too much cloak and dagger stuff, but thats the fun part of the game

what is missing is proper politics but i can imagine that can be reworked once the bulk of the game in terms of provincial politics are solved !

there is no effective army against army mechanics which is a pity i would enjoy to take on a bigger army and out maneuver them to save troops or to be able to conquer a province even if outnumbered!

but considering the average game in F95 this one is a gem

as Stated in Comment in Thread of Vae Victis - Khan: Conquer, Ravish & Breed, but make it Short & Sweet : Its pretty good, defintly fits in the list of Great Sex Games Folder, were "Good Girl Gone Bad" & "Summer Time Saga" or "High Rise" or Other already Great Sex Games, now are Legendary on this Site. I will give it 7 out of 10 Personal Rating, which equals as "Good" Rating on the Site.

2 star for gameplay, renders are meh, story starting good but getting boring quickly, puzzles are stupidly hard for adult game(i mean dev want you to read "everything" bruh did you ever do that yourself while playing any adult vn? )

and major problem is endless grinding never gives you the REAL reward: 1 average scene and next to another grind...

Decent game with great classic concept: Dominate and conquer different women! The 3D models are beautiful. Hope to see more great stuff and eventually get revenge on MC's evil mom. Wish there could be more bdsm stuff in the future

The bottom line: nothing is explained and I can't figure out how to play this game.

- I'm told I need to boost troop morale, but that costs 80 gold and the most I can hold is 70 gold for some reason.
- I'm told I need to infiltrate neighboring states, I did, nothing happened. I mean, I got some neat images, but that didn't change anything about my empire status. The infiltrated nations don't offer me more money or troops, I can't attack "through" them to other states.
- I can't regular-attack and defeat neighboring states because I can't seem to get more than 18 troops, and both of my opponents have 40. And they keep 40 after a failed attack.
- Walkthroughs all involve things *after* this point. They might be helpful if I had a fledgling empire going and needed some tips, but absolutely none of them indicate anything about how to start. It feels like everybody started on a much earlier version of this, when it was easier, and imported their save files.
- I can't even get into one-on-one combat to beat up ogres or something. I'm literally locked at the map. When I say stuck, I mean full shutdown, the game is over after the first little combat tutorial.

It's a shame. It looks like a lot of work went into this. The map system is far more detailed than any other game I've seen. By all accounts the MC is a huge bastard -- awesome. Sounds fun. I imagine later, this is quite good, if only there was a way to start playing. I'll probably revisit this on a later version (or try to find an earlier version) and update my review accordingly. Maybe a cheat mod or something.

Edit: Figured I'd knuckle down and figure how how everybody else was busting into this game. It didn't work. I fought one nation until it had one troop left. Regrettably, despite dropping all gold on morale boosters from the shadow-thingie, I can't get more than 7 troops and they can't kick that one guy's butt. I literally can't start this game. I don't know what you expect me to do, but you better put it in inch tall red letters, 'cause I don't get it. Most people just close the game and won't say anything. I'm telling you there's a huge problem here and it's stopping people from playing and giving you money. Put in a wizard that takes over the neighboring kingdom, something, anything. I can't do shit like this.

Well, as a sex game - very good. Scenes and situations are quite hot (although they are mainly aimed at "certain" fetishes, which not everyone can appreciate). And there are no animations, X-Ray and most models are either very slender or "cows". No middle ground hah.
In any case, the other aspects of the game are mediocre. No good plot. Fighting and kingdom management do their job, but rudimentary. Realizing this, I just opened the entire gallery with cheats and viewed the scenes

Well, this game is amazing, the renders are good the content is good, you know the basics for a 5/5 game.

But the really good thing about it is the world and the story both are very well designed. You know most fantasy worlds are fleshed about the expected cultures of different races and when there is sex related to it you can expect the basics. Elfs don’t fuck, goblins fuck like crazy… the expected stuff.

The author tries to add a little bit more to it, races and places have culture, things like religion, a way of speaking and doing things, very interesting but don’t think this is done in a encyclopedic way, you just learn it while you travel and fuck in the most natural way. Lastly the characters are very well done, curiously the protagonist is not the cookie-cut silent one or the generic Isekai, but a really smart asshole... What a giga chad!!

The gaming mechanics like rock, paper & scissors or the management are optional but also very well done. Gay and zoophilic stuff fortunately are optional and can be skipped in a very natural way.

TL/DR: Unless you like rape kink or are really into the narrative of being a conquer, there probably isn't enough meat on the bone of this title to interest you; as rape slots in at ~60-70 % of available scene content. I didn't like the protagonist since he was too big of a bastard/meathead and there wasn't enough latitude to be a decent person. The story vignettes where you infiltrate the provinces you are about to make war on were the highlight.

Pros:
+ The infiltration stories were legitimately fun.
+ While the kingdom management was really bare-bones, I still enjoyed it. It'd be a lot better if you could do more with the kingdoms after you capture them and they continued to have more stories.
+ There were some short stacks in the game. (But not nearly enough)
+ Art was passable.
+ The author has a certain cleverness to them and some of the narrative build up / manipulations were interesting.
+ The dev did a decent job of making the paths unique despite usually recycling some art assets b/t the two. There were some scenes where it felt like the "Seduce" path scene was jank af, due to large parts of its art being cannibalized from the other path's art, but it worked okay most of the time with a few extra renders thrown on either side.
+ The main plot is somewhat interesting. Particularly the feminist cult.
+Decent world-building via the infiltration quests.
+ Pubic hair options were nice.

Neutral:
~Unavoidable Lesbianism
~MC looked dope with his beard- too bad it got trimmed!

Cons:
-There didn't really seem to be any consequence for being a huge cunt most of the time.
- After you conquer a country their leader either becomes a willing set of three holes with no personality OR and unwilling set of three holes with no personality. There is almost no feeling of connection or world building involved with the queens you conquer and recruit. This is super boring for two reasons. 1) In the "good guy" options the woman still just sees herself as a useless whore and there is no meaningful relationship. 2) They provide no in-depth world-building or kingdom management aspect outside of a small statistical bonus if you have them as a counselor. You just move on to the next country and the next set of holes. There is no soul in it. Its just the same song spinning on repeat.
- A lot of the sexual plots felt rushed and unrealistic to the point where they weren't actually hot. Likely as a result of their pacings mirroring the opposite pathings, which were mostly rape. Rape....doesn't exactly require a lot of set-up so it can be implemented quickly. A more romantic or consensual route takes more time to set up well.
- The scene writing is very repetitive. "You're a whore this," "You're worthless that." Blah, blah, blah.
- I liked maybe 20% of the in game scenes due to kinks I didn't care for.
-The game generally divides paths into "Dominate." "Ravish." and "Seduce" options. The problem with those is it was not always that clear what sexual content you'd get on any of them and some of it really grossed me out. "Ravish" generally meant resist rape. "Dominate" generally meant coersion rape, but occasionally was just maledom, "Seduce" generally meant consensual sex, but also often involved having another male in the room watching, or some chick tongue punching the MCs fart-box.
- Not very much choice in the scene content. You can choose where you cum- and what hole you fuck pretty often, and if you'd like to share with other men, but that was about it most of the time.
- Too many whorish LI
- I hate rape kink
-I don't like cuckoldry type kinks where you fuck someone in front of their dad, brother, or boyfriend.
-I don't care for anal play of the male MC. There was a lot of rimming.
-Not into twinks/femboys
- There were so many huge women that it made the super dominant "big" male character feel at best medium sized in the setting.

Review for v0.10.8

Sometimes you just want to look at a world map and strategically conquer territories, and for that this game is... decent. Fair mention that I didn't play all available content.

Truthfully I went in expecting not to like this a ton in the first place. It's very much a domination themed game, and as stated the protagonist is a "complete bastard." Just not really my thing at the end of the day, or at least in the way this game handles those themes. Still it should be said there's options to be less of a bastard and seduce instead of dominate, which I did appreciate. Made this playable for me.

The story is nothing new. Your mother/the queen poisons your father, frames you and throws you in jail to rot. Someone helps you escape, conveniently gives you control of a small fief, and you conquer from there.

On the strategical/management side of things, the game mechanics are very basic. Once you figure out the system it becomes almost monotonous. You skip a bunch of turns to generate gold and troops and occasionally get raided by people you always outnumber. Combat suffers in a similar way. With army battles, bigger number wins. You just click continue over and over while you watch a number whittle down. In more direct combat, you watch a black screen as you play rock paper scissors. It's dull after a point, especially with nothing interesting to look at.

My biggest complaint comes from what you gain after conquering territories. Women you recruit/capture become nothing but walking holes and fade into the background. I have absolutely no attachment to any characters because of this. Territories simply become another spot on the map to build the same buildings you have in your other fiefs. It's boring. I would have expected new events related to the places you capture, maybe even be able to visit them and do unique things at unique locations, but no. You'll get maybe one new event from a random woman and that's that.

The one thing I actually do really like is the infiltration missions. Every country has a mini adventure with the goal of finding an advantage you can use to conquer said country, and it's fun. But because I'm not much into the characters in the first place it becomes hard to truly get into it.

Graphically sex scenes look a bit dated, but there's also a good amount that were overly fetishized in ways I don't really enjoy. Fucking milfs while their sons watch, or women while their husbands watch, or the very large focus on pregnancy, the list goes on. Listening to and elf girl talk about being gang banged by orcs right before a sex scene with her just doesn't do much for me.

This game does sort of satisfy a certain niche, but I think that's partly due to a general lack of options with lewd games like this in the first place. I reached a point where I felt I had my fill and closed the game, and then I realized there wasn't really anything that would make me want to go back to play it more in the future.

+ Fun characters
+ This game has an odd sort of B movie charm to it

= Decent Renders
= Decent Animations
= Decent Setting
= Decent Plot
= Grind is horrible but there is an inbuilt skip option to allievate that issue

- Weak, rushed, and limited character development/content ( once part of your realm the women are just fleshlights most of the time, and in some cases they just disappear into the shadow realm never to be seen again )

- Gameplay becomes boring rather fast and feels somewhat janky

- The incest tag has rather limited content but it does include a member from the MC's family near the end of the current content. Said content is rather rushed as well.

- Bestiality content is rather bad for two reasons. First, there was only two instances of it. A short dog bj scene, and a very short horse scene. The dog looked super janky whether in body or animation, plus there was no knotting involved.

v0.10.8

It's reaaaaaaaaaaaal good. The models are good looking and there are Thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiick Women. And it has short stack races such as goblins and halflings.. Looking forward to the new updates.

The story is enjoyable so far some parts better than others. But there is alot of content and descent amount of choices which lead to different outcomes/scenes. Performance was fine and the renders are pretty good.

An amazing VN that boasts amazing model/characters. I was a little hesitant at first because of the management system but it isn't that bad once you get the hang of things.
The writing is great, superb. It explores all the best sizes.

Highly recommend this game, BIG TRUTH

This is kind of what I hoped Ataegina would be. It has better writing, interesting plot, renders are pretty nice.

I thought the combat system was unique at first but it just got tedious after awhile and I started using the chicken option (which was a nice touch).

I think the dev has done a really good job with the game, and I enjoyed it very much.

Great domination game. There's some variety in the quests and conquest, but every single territory comes with the option to subdue some women. Highly recommend if that's your thing!
Conquer and ravish, the breeding is optional!
