Ren'Py - Completed - Villain's Legacy [v3.0.5] [Mad scientist lab]

Surprisingly great! Starts off a bit rough but once you get used to the game mechanics and delve into the story it's amazing.

The graphics are very well done and almost all of the character models are super attractive. The animations are short simple but very well done and happen quite frequently to keep the story feeling alive and interesting.

While not a Shakespearean novel by any means the story is engaging and the multitude of choices makes it feel like some choices really matter.

I really didn't think I would like this game but I love it and I highly encourage people to try it, just hurry past the slow start and become the super villain you were always meant to be.

Story/Character:
During the introduction, not to give any spoilers. The introduction to his origin story of why he became a supervillian was incorporated NTR was fun. The whole introduction sets the standard of typical incel guy wanting revenge against the world but is obviously not done in a serious manner. The game is intended to be a parody of the superhero genre and has dark humour.

To be honest, you really do feel for this the MC about how weak he is and how much the world was against him. Causing me to rally for his cause to defeat the superheroes and prove them wrong. But throughout the game, through some of the stories we come to learn that he’s an understanding MC and shows empathy to some of the undeserving. I just wish he was a bit more evil and more cunning in his plans of humilating the superheroes that he hated, he seems too nice to be a supervillian.

Most of the superheroes stories are done to an adequate standard, with others having more effort put in whilst other are quite quick. Each of them are usually somewhat developed enough that keep me intrigued with their story and how the MC would defeat.


Content:
There is a great variety of content. I do very much enjoy that there are two storylines or lives for the MC. He works at a clothes store as a normal Joe, experiencing the typical lusts of life. You also get to build your cool supervillain group to do some of your dirty work which I found pretty cool.


I was just a bit disappointed in the lack of actual sex content. Alot of the actual sex scenes of the MC just felt kind of rushed and served as a purpose to reward players, rather than corrupting the superheroes. But despite that majority of the sexual content was up to scratch and were entertaining. Despite that, I felt like most of the sex scenes were not very fappable but still were hot enough to satisfy myself to look at.

Gameplay:
The gameplay is all about managing your time and schedule as a sandbox game to work as a supervillain at night and a normal Joe at day. Your main aim is to defeat all of the members of the Valor who have embarrassed you and hold a grudge against you. There are two main stats that are important to how you progress through the game and access the scenes.

Fame - fame is necessary to prove yourself to the world that you’re a super villain and that you have people who have eyes on you. Having more fame will grant you access to more quests and content.

The other is money, which is very self-explanatory. You go on missions as a criminal or a supervillain however you like it, to do crimes and earn money this way. Through earning money, you can buy materials from the shop where you can craft items to progress through certain quests. The crafting aspect of it is very simple and is done well. There are animations and scenes that go alongside it, so it makes it feel immersive.

Overall. I believe the gameplay is the best aspect of the game. The game does not feel grindy at all, it’s quite a blast to play. The grinding aspects of earning money and fame don’t feel mundane as it incorporate development and content seamlessly. It’’s fun to see what creation the MC has created to progress through the stories.


Visuals:
The visuals are good, but nothing too special or amazing to brag about. Renders are slightly above average and are easy on the eyes. Some of the animations are great, there’s smooth fluidity and grace to the animations. These don’t just include sex scenes but some normal scenes as well.

The UI is clean and smooth. Maybe I just wished there was a bit more character or superhero flair in regard to the presentation of the game.

Sound:
The sound design in this game is great! Fantastic music selection throughout the games. Intense music during fight scenes as if you were watching an episode of the “Boys”. Mellow ambience background music that immerses you in different environments. Such simple sound effects such as crafting and shooting lasers feel right, they add a zing and depth to the game. My only major complaint is that most of the sex scenes lack moaning and sex noises, found it a bit disappointing because of the effort of how much work was put into the other aspects of sound design.

As conclusion, Villain’s Legacy is an entertaining superhero (or supervillain) game with fun gameplay that rewards players with creative sexual content and plentiful of superheroes to defeat. I was disappointed in expecting more NTR content, as I’m an NTR fan but it is only in the beginning. So if you’re a hater of NTR, you can actually skip the whole thing but selecting to go away. Personally, for me, it just felt like it was a game with porn content rather than a porn game. Regardless it’s still a enjoyable game for any horny fans who wants a corrupting superhero game.

Wow. The H game in The Boys style universe. The intro is the most original and well written stuff I have ever seen in adult games.

Story that does not require skipping? Cool.

Renders are good quality.

I have edited review after completing the game down from 5 to 4, reasons are simple. Too much grind, repetition, lack of variety and spice in scenes. The game starts with unexpected plot twists, but becomes more generic and dull as you keep going.

I feel before anything else, I must point out that the intro is by far the worst part of the game. The MC comes off as incel-ly, self-absorbed, envious loser. The whole setup with the "clearly-too-hot-for-the-MC" wife jumping on big black cock at first opportunity carries the same cringy vibes.

Honestly, I was pretty close to just closing the game during the intro, but decided to give the game a chance.

After the intro you get a pretty jarring jump from your supervillain origin directly into fully setup secret base with no idea without really being told what to do.

All in all, not a good start. Thankfully that's where the game starts to pick up. While I feel the money/ingredient system is entirely superfluous, it doesn't bother me - the "sandbox" is thankfully light: you have map with characters, click one and you see plot synopsis and possible requirements. If you meet the requirements, you get to progress the character's story.

The stories are really where the meat of the game is. The characters are varied and mostly interesting. Most of them have interesting stories, while a few (like the reporter girl) are pretty shallow, focusing more on the MC's revenge.

Despite the bad early impression, the MC actually ends up being pretty likeable and the scenes and plots are entertaining. Essentially you meet new supers (mostly heroines), come up with new devices to counter their powers and use your devices to beat and/or humiliate them to progress your goals. Some of these encounters end up into sex scenes, although they are still relatively few and far between.

The setting itself is pretty much a sexed up parody of 80s/90s superhero world, but with the twist that the heroes have been corrupted by their status and fame, being elevated above the law. They still preach and act the typical do-gooder role in public, but in private they are anything from deviants to murderers. The MC hates the status quo and wants to bring forth new, more equal world order of his own design and punish supers who have abused their powers and status.

All in all if you can suffer through the terrible intro the game is (mostly) surprisingly well-written and entertaining, while also having fantastic and actually unique art. No unmodified stock models you've seen in dozens of other games here from what I've seen.

Very underated game!

The setting is nice (humiliating and corrupting superheroines), the scenes vary, the dialogues with the brainless minions are hilarious sometimes. I hope the game don't get abandoned like almost all superheroine games.

I played v2.1.13.1 – Sandbox game with a male MC in a superhero world. MC gets humiliated by his wife (hard NTR) and his neighbors and later by several superheroes. He gets supergenius powers and swears revenge. Has bdsm, mdom and fdom tags.
It’s okay – the characters look okay (except for the MC), the sound is fine and a superhero setting is rare and fresh. The writing style is good enough that I can stomach it but not great.
Sadly the creator can’t seem to decide whether he wants to make a comedy or a serious story and mixed it – which can work – but here it did not. The scenes that are supposed to be serious are unbelievable and silly and the comedy is (to me) not funny.
The characters also seem like they are supposed to be over the top parodies, except when the creator wants you to take them seriously, only it once again doesn’t work.
The language also switches to italian sometimes without a reason.
Eh, let’s get to the bdsm content – there is some content with a shoplifter (spanking, public humiliation, light domination) and the heroines have some scenes once you defeat them (public humiliation, device bondage, spanking, tickling, watersports, forced orgasms, body writing, mind control/mind break – different depending on the heroine), some heroines have scenes with each other (lesbian, vanilla, domination, bondage, spanking) and some heroines/villainesses get a romance route either immediately or after you defeated them (vanilla, threesome, lesbian).
Interesting is the use of superpowers for sex – so far there was a cool superspeed scene, but we might get more in the future.
There is some fdom/mcsub content, if you let certain scenes go on, that is setup for yet another revenge arc but most fdom is on fsub.
The gameplay is pretty simple – earn money and fame, go after a heroine, find her weakness, defeat her.
The game’s main strength is the setting – there are not many superhero games I could recall off-handedly. Aside from that it’s not overly interesting. If you are bored you might want to give it a try.

Even ignoring the whole "ugly bastard" MC routine, it's just very mediocre.

There's no real story, the entire premise is you gradually corrupting each hero to join your side. The gameplay involved in getting money is incredibly boring and repetitive, and so your best bet is to just keep going through it a couple dozen times to get enough money to then ignore it for the rest of the game until necessary for the story.

The corruption of the girls is very generic and boring. There is essentially no GENUINE difference between each woman, because they go through the same process. Each of them go through the exact same steps with a different paint job.

The dev is clearly confused if we're meant to be a good guy or a bad guy, because no one that feels remorse would go out of his way to be so sadistic so often. Also doesn't help that we're supposed to be playing what they classify as a genius, and yet has very little intelligence (unfortunate, but obviously that relates to the dev).

Ultimately, just a waste of time. The only saving grace is it's technically a rarity as a good looking superhero game, but that's it's only saving grace.

Don't understand why ppl dislike this game. I think the author did a really good job in writing up a humorous yet erotic story. I already bought the game on steam to support the author. If you like superhero genre and comedy, you should definitely buy it.

main character starts out super annoying. probably have to be from dev's own experience, because you cannot make someone up who is this unsympathetic. he is jealous, he wanna cheat, he looks down on everyone, he is arrogant... yet he is mad when his wife would wanna cheat. complete wreck of a human. the beginning part was really unrealistic. like wanting to go home 20times just because they see your wife when he doesn't even really like his wife and is all about the Lola black girl

aside from premise and long intro:

then action suddenly starts out of nowhere. no explanation, you suddenly have a big base and a costume and etc. it's really dumb

the only good thing about this game is that models are very hot. there is music too but tbh it was more annoying than helpful.

but sex scenes are really bland and boring. and slow and rare. this is a porn forum. so purely rating the sex scenes would be close to 1/5 but models are very hot so i guess all in all 2/5 is justified. because there is a lot of very boring talk and clicking and dialogue and grind, for no reason, just to delay the nevertheless subpar sex scenes. maybe there are 1-2 sex scenes which are nice. so i suggest to unlock the gallery and watch them because this game is not fun to play, it's just boring.

Good renders and story too. Mc's wife cheat him in the beginning then Mc get power and he decides to become a villain. Even if he is a villain he got principles and he cares about his girls. if you don't like NTR don't worry it's only in the start and MC will take revenge for it. Yeah Mc's face looks like a goblin but you have to adjust it. It's part of the story. Even if it is a sandbox there is no grinding.

Loved the game looking forward to next updates. Keep up the good work dev

The real score would be 3.5, because I think this is slightly above average.

This game, or rather, this dev has great potential, despite there being obvious faults here.

(Spoilers)
Firstly, I can only really echo the other reviews here and give the disclaimer about the prologue: The game opens with a pretty long sequence of the MC getting "tortured" to set up the revenge-plot of the game. It is skippable by leaving the poker-game early, and mostly an unpleasant read if you're not into it.
After that there is another pretty long sequence that is mostly dry and worldbuild-y, and then the tone shifts completely into the best part of the game: sex-comedy about superhero-tropes.

I have to say, despite the medium being, in my opinion, kinda bad for comedy (hard to control the timing and setup of punchlines to tell good jokes) there is a lot of good, funny writing here, and the concept of a guy turning to supervillainy because of his small dick and failed masculinity is inherently funny, even if the game could have taken a more elegant, shorter and more funny path to it. Not to say I don't get that it's supposed to be relatable, and "justifiable".

I think the execution of the story-structure after the opening is kind of weak, with the gameplay being super barebones and storylines being just things you click off of a map. This is not the most elegant execution of this kind of concept, but it's what we have. You pretty much get dropped from the prologue into your lair, which is a jarring switchup.

The game also kind of lacks a connective tissue between "The origin story" and "taking down the heroine" in most scenarios. I think putting down more limits, like starting out with a selection of 3 heroes and branching out from there, would have contributed more to giving time to set up the characters slower, and give more time to limit progression from a no-name in a unitard to an actual threat. But I get that writing comedy is hard, there's a pressure to add content and prioritize sex-scenes, and it definitely was necessary to quickly make clear what the rest of the game was going to be, but still...

Speaking of content, the visuals are great. They might just be the most impressive part of the game, and do a good job being stimulating, and can carry most of the sex-scenes. But the scenes are mostly generic aside from the focus on NTR in the beginning, without really committing to any other theme besides the skin-tight, amazonian look of the women.

Overall, slightly better than average, and slightly more unique than most games. I am not a fan of pure VNs, so I would always like some more depth to gameplay, but you can't have everything.

Pretty terrible grammar and spelling.
The character models look good but that's about it.

I got too bored to keep going and the pseudo-politics just irritated the hell out of me. I think even if it wasn't broken English it'd still be some shitty writing.

The rare AVN with something interesting to say, but doesn't club you over the head with it. Usually pretty wacky and over the top in tone much like the comics from which it takes its inspiration. This doesn't stop it from managing to have some touching moments.

The basic premise is being a "villain", but in an unjust society, so the "evil" acts serve as a method to better society; think "The Boys", but sexier and more lighthearted. It's an enjoyable fantasy to inhabit and for the most part is well-executed. The campy tone is more 80s and 90s comic books than the modern superhero flick

The art is pretty good. Character designs and framing choices in the pics are well thought-out and thematically appropriate. The women are sexy, and while the MC is pretty goofy-looking, that's part of the point. The animations are pretty crude at this stage of development, but there's some indication that the dev is getting better as they go along.

The writing ranges from good to competent. There is some unevenness in the prose, as some parts show a good deal of polish, and others have some pretty awkward phrasing and word choices. The overall plot though is a lot of fun.

The major flaws in the game are consistency and pacing. There are some pretty jarring inconsistencies in the MCs behavior, and the sandbox nature of the gameplay leads to getting conversations that reference things that haven't happened yet, or didn't happen at all due to player choices. There are also some real grindy elements. The sanbox and resource-to-crafting loops work pretty well, but there are a few event chains that could have several steps cut from them without reducing the flow and feel of the plot.

Overall, though, this is well worth your time to play. I'll be watching this one!

This is a great game. When he first decided to become The Mind I thought he was going to be a gag villain who nobody took seriously. They take him seriously and recognize how dangerous he is and he shows it too. he doesn't have the aliens knowledge but has his intellectual potential and I think that's well written. I don't know if it was optional or not to see the ntr scenes in the past but I'm glad they gave the option to just go home even though later on the dialogue makes it seem like he did witness it. And he doesn't sound enthusiastic to get his wife back he just wants to get revenge on the guy and I couldn't stopped laughing when he shrunk his dick.

Generally high quality game. It has good character models. The writing is solid, especially considering it's translated. The interface is smooth and performance seems good - a rarity I find in image heavy renpy indie games. Nothing too obtuse and it's easy to progress the game.

Very good overall.

Story = Enjoyable, basic, nice.
Characters = All of them have different personalities. Legend.
Face graphics = good
Tits, boobs, ass graphics (renders) = Really bad. Not realistic.
Main character = Our character is evil so this is cool, legend. I'm tired of good main characters.

This game is a lot better than I thought it would be, especially after the beginning. The first part is a way overly drawn-out NTR scene where your wife decides to leave you during a get-together with the next door neighbors, even screwing the husband in front of you, because they showed her a tape of you peeping on them during sex. The plot would pretty much be the same without it, and I would recommend rushing through it to see some nice visuals, but is rather dumb in extremely dull ways.

After that, though, there is a good scene showing how you get your powers, and I think the game would have been better for starting right at this point. This is a standard "superheroes are jerks" dystopia that has been shown a lot by now, but the dialogue and characterizations can be a lot better than is typical in a porn game, including the MC. It is never "Avatar: The Last Airbender" levels of quality, and the characters can be annoying at times, including the MC, but some of the relationships end up a lot more interesting than one would expect, especially Cat Noir and your character.

There is not much to the gameplay aside from some grinding, and it can be hard at times to figure out what to do next. Sometimes you have to search your computer for a new option, sometimes you have to build something new, sometimes you need more fame, and it is not always clear what the options are. But once you get used to that, it can be overcome pretty quickly, and it is a pretty interesting story with some nice visuals and overall is done pretty well.

The first scene of this game is the most disgusting thing i have seen in a long while, yet it must have some revenge !? right? Well not really ...

Shrinking the Black guy dick really doesnt settle my thrist for blood, probably a big lack of imagination from the dev or guts, dont expect a satisfying experience from this game, you keep wanting more from the mc but he will continue to be weak, even when "super smart".

Dev if you need help about how to tortured people send me a word.

Quite interesting, the beginning is a bit "rude" for the MC, so I recommend "going home" when you have the opportunity (the ending the wife is a whore and leaves him anyway so it doesn't matter), visually it's very well, quite a few touches of humor, an ugly MC, true, but after a humiliating start he now seeks revenge as the bad guy in the story.

Recommended for those who don't like NTR? YES, it's just one scene and it's skippable (it happens but the girl leaves the MC anyway so it doesn't matter).

Recommended for those who like NTR? YES, as long as you don't specifically look for this, since the game is about revenge on the MC and not cuckolding him.

Reviewed Made for Version: 1.5.1

I was originally totally turned off by the start of the game and went into a "fuck it" mode, skipping everything to get to the sex scenes.

But somewhere along the way, I started to pick up on the story and comedy of the "real" game and began to really enjoy it. In retrospect, I understand that the "intro" serves as the villain creation story that motivates the MC, and my initial dislike for that part actually serves as a launchpad to understand the MC's actions later. Quick note: I later learned that you can skip some parts of the "intro" by going home early from the poker game.

The game part of this visual novel is irrelevant and easy, but it adds some substance to the story, making it not just a pure VN, and you get a slight feeling of choice. I haven't played around with the game to see if any of it matters, but I don't think it will.

In short, great visuals, good humor, but you have to endure the start of the game before you get to the good stuff.
