VN - Ren'Py - Victoria in Big City [v0.55] [Groovers Games]

excellent graphics, excellent animations, kinky enough story. I've enjoyed it very much so far. looking forward to see how it develops and hope Victoria becomes even more of a slut. best of luck to the developer.

There isn't a single guy in this supposedly "female" game acting like a male. They are all passive sissies, cowardly wimps, resentful fags. Their behaviour is offensive to women. They belong in a gay club, not in female games! These guys just don't know how to flirt! They don't know how to woo a lady. Their behaviour resembles that of a shy 12-year-old hikikomori. The look of the characters is bad. The sculpting is lazy. It is impossible to identify the race and nation of NPCs. This happens when the author has not seen in real life what anthropological types of faces there are and is not know anatomy. Anyone who know western people knows that people there have a developed sense of origin. They can tell where you come from just by the way you look. The author creates a game about people from the USA, but didn't bother to study their urban culture, read books.

The renders are too bright. Eye fatigue appears. You experience pain when looking at this brightness. There is no dynamic range. Renderings are either shadowless or shaded along with faces. This is a disgusting light work. It is enough to watch at least one Hollywood film to notice that faces are always visible even at night. And that even in the daytime there are deep black shadows.

There are no options to choose from. I didn't want to go on a date with David, but the dev made me. There's no guy out there at all worthy of a date.

Victoria in Big City [v0.5]

I played this game probably a dozen times. Problem is, that it was a dozen different games, with the same old patterns.
You move to a big city, meet people,peek on others having sex and masturbate, you get drunk, have sex, peek on people while their naked, and the cycle goes on and on.
It's fucking lazy copy/paste bs that you've already seen in so many other games.
If you would create a game full of porn-game tropes, then this would probably be it.
You're that innocent girl who looks like, at least 30, who if I remember correctly, leaves her parents home to move to a BIG CITY that brings many "challenges and adventures".
While you're there you'll meet totally uninteresting people, stumble on guys dicks, and become a slut in no-time.
After like 15 minutes or so I stopped playing the game, because it was just the same repetitive cycle all over again.
I would even bet that the relationship points don't matter at all, because they didn't matter in my playthrough.
If all of that doesn't matter to you, then this might be a game for you.
The renders are decent, sex scenes are decent and animated.
I love corruption games, but at the end of the day, this just wasn't for me, and I would expect a little more than just the uninspired porn trope game, that I've seen countless times already.

So far I am thoroughly enjoying this VN. It is a CORRUPTION VN and I love CORRUPTION VN's.. I'm always surprised when the I hate corruption VN's crowd get obviously forced to download a corruption VN game against there will!

The writing is solid, no errors were encountered so far. The female MC is attractive and choices do matter as to what path you go down. If you want your GF to be a faithful saint go for it but stop going down the corruption path and crying about it.

Great job so far to the developers and please keep the updates coming.

What I love about this game is the fact that it has a female MC and male LI aren't complete pieces of shit. It's so refreshing as because the cheating/corrupting genre where every male character is an asshole is so oversaturated. The renders are also great and Victorias model looks fantastic. Animations look kinda stiff but it doesnt bother me. Story is okay, nothing crazy. Definitely looking forward to more. Kudos to the dev!

My Rating of this Game (v04b) is:

Pros:
-Great Renders
-Nice Story
-Long Play with each Update

Cons:


Total Rating so far:

Great Game with fantastic Renders, love every minute of it, and I must say the Updates are nice and long.
Very Spicy Scenes, with great close-ups.
Love every Minute of it.
Keep up the Great work Dev......We love it......

Grovers Game has come a long way with Victory and we are still just at the beginning of this already excellent game with so much potential left to develop and explore.
1. the image models are excellent and Victora is just exceptional. Curves in the right places and is like all models and scenes in the game well crafted and rendered in very high res and hi quality! Love it!
2. the story is now multi path that are some times mutually exclusive and sometimes not. Choices matter and the player controls it so choose carefully and make sure to try to play several paths because you will miss a ton of content if you only play it one way through. Probably, so far, you need to play the game almost 3 times to get all paths - again this is great and makes the story much more complex and interesting -super!
3. Grovers Game is also quite productive (for the small team I believe they are) and just delivered a huge release that you really need to play at least twice to see all content GREAT!
4. also very reliable in delivery. For instance, he always like clock works delivers monthly bonus Wallpapers on Patreon. A great way to keep engaging with the Patrons and give something between releases. Excellent!

Well so far so good and it's just starting.
The rating can only be 5 stars. Keep up the great work!
Yes I am a Patreon and put money behind this - well "invested"!

The modeling and sex scene expression is great .There is no repetition or complexity that is common in sandbox games.
The work itself is of high quality . must is 5 star good rating . quality worth collecting .

Well, that was disappointing.

My rant is mainly going to revolve around one part of the game and that will be the lesbian points so nothing to see for those looking for a slut sim, you'll get that.

So I spent the whole game that is there so far building up the most pointless collection of lesbian points i've ever collected in a game with a supposed lesbian route.

I say supposed because one of the girls you build relationship points with is arguably one of the biggest sluts to grace a VN to the point where if this was a male MC it would have people crying NTR.

Yep, one of the female love interests takes dick every other scene making her the single worst contender for a lesbian love interest i've ever seen. It practically removes her form the running, not interested in her at all.

Which leaves .... well, no one.

There was absolutely no point adding lesbian points at all. The love interest is garbage, the Mc barely knows her arse from her elbow and the game can't decide what it wants to be. It's like your average corruption based slut sim but it's too scared to get in the water so gives you the illusion of choice which in the end doesn't matter.

Let's get this out of the way--the writing is rough and the character interactions are a bit cardboard. While the bones of this game are there and solid, there’s no real flow due to dialogue limitations. However, with that said, there's a lot of good female MC corruption here and the model for Victoria is great and super curvy. Based purely on my enjoyment of of the hot MC and genre, I found myself surprisingly engaged while playing this game. Hope the author seeks out help for dialogues, because this one has great potential.

Nice renders, nice story. VN with female protagonist, corruption, slutty friend pushing naive country girl into the abyss and not a sign of sandbox — nearly perfection
I enjoyed, and definitely gonna support its creator .

It's not very good. The story is your typical naive and innocent girl becomes a giant flaming slut. It's just not written very well. The story is poor as are the characters, I doubt I could name them, they're forgettable. The way they speak also often has that this is not how people speak vibe you get from some VNs.

The renders, they're really well done. It's also rarely on one render for long, a lot of effort has clearly gone into the renders. The sex scenes are well it's harsh but tbh they're kinda crap. I ended up bored.

So it's a VN with poor story, characters, sex scenes but rendered well.

Like the game. The plot and the bacjgoriund is similar to Anna exiting Affection, and the art is more than good enough. I think the creator ia not native English Speaker since you can see a lot of grammatical errors, but nothing that breaks de game. Looking forward to the development os he story

+ Lovely and hot character.
+ Nice graphics.
+ Understandable story.
+ Easy gameplay.
- Wish more animations per update.
- Long time development.
Overall it's a good game, but like everywhere it have moments for improvement.

Great potential. This could really become one of those games, we all look back on with complete awe. The renders are great, the writing too, And I, for one, can't wait to see what this developer might bring us in the future,
Love, love, SAFFID

Victoria in Big City [v0.25] - April 22, 2021

Story - 3/5
Not bad for the "moving to the big city" & "good girl gone bad" tropes but not great either. When it comes to the latter, I'm not sure if the developer purposely made it 'neutral girl gone bad' as Victoria doesn't exactly follow the good girl trope that well. What it lacks is a slow burn approach when it comes to relationships & sex especially since she's currently in a relationship & she's getting corrupted far too easily far too soon. If Victoria is going to be corrupted so much so soon, Katy needs to be a far worse influence than she currently is.

Writing - 1/5
In desperate need of an English proofreader as the writing is painful to read & is nothing short of horrid. The VN is over a year old (first post in the thread is March 15, 2020) & has had an update so there's no excuse for it to still be in this state. Literally everything is wrong from sentences not making sense, spelling errors, not understanding human speech in English to the point it sounds robotic/wrong, unnecessary conversation & I could go on. I think adding even some feminization to the dialog could go a long way & create more realism to the speech. In a game that is based around the 'good girl gone bad' cliche, I think some calmer language for Victoria is necessary until she gets worse or eventually becomes bad. Another issue is the font as it's hard to tell if the character is having a thought as it's hard to tell if it's in italics or not.

Art - 5/5
Everyone is stunning! Victoria & Katy are simply gorgeous. Backgrounds are great. Perfect.

Final Thoughts
Besides the writing being completely horrible & the lack of pacing that is necessary for a story of the "good girl gone bad" trope. It's still early enough in development to still have a lot of potential to be something good if not excellent with proper direction. The story does need some tweaking. What I would do is go back & make Katy an even worse influence as the reason why Victoria cheated so soon which can be done by rewriting & changing the dress Katy bought Victoria to something more skimpy.

Pros:
- Good concept
- Everyone is beautiful
- Follows the "moving to the city" trope well
- Has a lot of potential

Cons:
- Writing is horrible, even the title
- Story is lacking & needs pacing but it's fixable
- Bad font
- MC is more neutral than good for the "good girl gone bad" trope

Overall Rating - 3/5

Very interesting game with a decent amount of meaningful choices. The game is ambitious, and the future content is going to be really exciting. Great world-building and character development. It is still early on so there is not a ton of content there, but there is enough to get a good feel of where it is going. Seems like there will be more sex on the table now and it's not gonna slow burn it anymore.

A nice game with good images and a lot of choices between two different paths. As a release version the game starts pretty good. it is not too short. The storyline introduce all characters nicely. Not too many people are introduced. Hopefully we will have in future updates more choices whom to fuck or with whom to go into a relationship. Anyway this game have some potential and I hope to play more updates.

Rating for version 0.2.

Great start to this female protag corruption game. There's nothing unique about the story and the script for the first two interviews is less than subtle, but it lays the groundwork for the game well enough.

The art is what makes this game. Amazing quality and even the stills of the characters when they're not being lewd are visually appealing. Decent amount of content for version 0.2.

Very much looking forward to the next release.

Final rating is 5/5 because despite the plot being a little heavy-handed, the art is outstanding enough to offset that little weakness.
