Ren'Py - Completed - Vixens Tail: Duskvale [v1.0] [Fluxcarnal]

I put into this game dozen of hours, didn't finish yet and got stuck at some point without knowing to do, and at that point I already gave up on keep exploring.

From the beginning of the game you can see that the writing is decent. It is not some teenager approach, though the premise of the story itself didn't really talk to me. It was too far fetched and how all circles around sex, but I can respect the game trying to create a world with history and culture.

One of the main points for me to not keep playing the game is the lack of decent animations. The animations here are very lacking and hard to watch, but for some I assume the fetish is enough and thus the animations are forgivable.

I don't know why I can't playing the game for that long if it didn't talk to me that much, I assume because of how random it is and how even when you are long into the game, you can still discover new stuff, which is a strong point for the game in my opinion.

Amazing game. Overall : 9/10

Story: 10/10
Art: 9/10
Mechanics: 9/10
X content : 8.5/10

Story: I loved the story, it's full of mistery, lots of different places, i couldn't stop being surprised by the turns of the plot. Can't give enough praise.

Art: Very good renders, the backgrounds are not the best ones but the way they are put into the game it's perfect, they blend in and fit perfectly.

Game Mechanics: These type of CYOA games normally only offer different paths and endings, if you want another ending just change a diferent dialogue and thats it. In here it's a bit grinding but you get to discover the different scenes, the story, you need to figure how to solve the puzzles. And these is so much better and fun, it only lacks some hints or marks on were different locations are, like the sewers, i was stuck 30min triying to figure out were to click. But i liked a lot these type of aproach.

X Content: Pretty good, i liked the different variations when you change your outfit, and the only bad thing would be the duration and renders, it resembles as when im having sex and i last 3 minutes. Good but short, it's compensated by the fact that there are lots of scenes.

Loved the game, if you are not a furry fan, don't worry it's not that hard.

decent renders. good combination of themes. MC is perfect. story is decent. decent playtime with plenty of scenes. looking forward to the dev's next game as i think after their first two games they have the experience to make a full one.

Amazing futa game with a good splash of urethral play. Basically all characters are futa, but vary in sizes with proportions. Only criticism is sometimes it's a bit unclear how to proceed ()example of this is finding the sewer entrance in the north area, or triggers that rely on levels of cum or physical modifications from potions).

This game is... OK.

Pros:

• It's "complete" (sortof). The vast majority of the adult games on this site seem to get stuck in eternal development hell or outright abandonment, so kudos to this game's creator for sticking things through.
• Dedicated futa-on-futa content through and through. Only a handful of games seem dedicated to this niche, so kudos here.
• Cute characters. Decent art and music. "Meh" sex animations and sound effects but still mostly good enough to get the job done.
• Interesting premise, intriguing story elements, a fair amount of entertaining random encounters in the forest.

Cons:

• Game feels very much like an early release / alpha build in many ways. Certain animations are re-used or missing (for example, the same animation is used when milking the cow futa's tits or cock). Certain things seem to be bugged or poorly designed (i.e., I asked my maid servant to milk my cowgirl but nothing ever seemed to happen).
• The game's pacing and core game mechanics like "daily actions" seem clunky. The first part of the game was very boring for quite awhile before interesting options eventually started becoming available. I found myself doing a lot of time-consuming grinding actions in order to produce enough cum-filled condoms to progress the game but still ended up stuck. Eventually I found myself in a near-infinite-loop of milking my main character, milking my cowgirl, going to town to sell jars of milk, running out of "daily actions," sleeping, doing the same thing again the next day, getting brutally taxed by the centaur messenger erasing all my progress, being unable to bribe the centaur tax collector messenger with my gaping drooling pussy for unknown reasons (bug?), and then getting frustrated and giving up on the game for the time being.
• The game is desperately in need of a thorough walkthrough or wiki. The "walkthroughs" linked in the 1st post barely scratch the surface and are probably outdated.
• Several INCREDIBLY FRUSTRATING game mechanics such as the aforementioned centaur tax collector messenger and the vampire lady that randomly drains your balls in the middle of the night.

It's... an OK game. I'm glad to have had the opportunity to play it for free, and I hope the game creator(s) continue to refine their craft. <3

This game is fairly good in a lot of ways, but it has some annoying issues I found it hard to ignore.

The art is decent, but could be better. Particularly the world and overall presentation work well, but the porn is a little lacking. The content has some variety, but it's mostly pretty basic futa/furry stuff.
The story and characters are fine, but lack depth.
The game plays alright, no bugs.

My main issue is the confusing missions that are very easy to get stuck on. Sometimes even with instructions I had a very hard time. Any game where I feel the need to follow a guide step by step (that I needed to download from the discord in 4 parts!) has a clear issue in my mind. I got about 3/4 through the game, before giving up as I couldn't figure out how to progress.

There is a significant amount of grind, made worse by the taxes you regularly have to pay. It's not too bad, but still annoying.

overall, this game was just barely good enough to hold my attention, with story, art and content. But it has major flaws that made me unable to finish the story and that really pulls it down.

[v1.0]
Very good.

I love Koikatsu art, so this game is a "yes" for me.

Played previous(or not) game that was short, but fun.
And this game is the same but a lot longer, has more h-scenes, more plot, a lot harder.

Without walkthrough you just click all the locations and NPCs to make progress or find 1-2 new dialogues that progress the plot.

Overall, I like this game and played it with pleasure (Though I am not fond of several fetishes present).

And yeah:
-No gallery
-No rollback
Not fun

Version: v1.0

A fun adventure/exploration game that i could describe as a very ROUGH diamond. I liked the art and the large variety of fetishes this game offers, plus finding more about the world you play is fun, even if the world is quite simplistic.
But there are many parts of this game that completely kill the score for me.
For example, the gameplay. Its worse then non existent, its braindead simplistic and repetitive, which granted, many Ren'Py games suffer from. The other thing that pissed me off was the story progression, If not for this forum, i would not been able to progress until the end, because this game doesnt tell you shit, so you better read what the characters are talking about, because you will not get anything more then that.

No gallery? Really? With that many scenes?

Good-ish game that i can kind of recommend you, but it will heavily depend on your fetishes and your tolerance for shit development choices.

no gallery
no rollback
tries to have a coherent story but you can't do that when your currency is used condoms
usually enjoy koikatsu characters but these ones look like megamind on crack
animal dicks are weird and out of place on them
exploration basically means click on everything until something happens
idk why people rate this 5 stars, guess their standards are in the basement

TL;DR: Fun exploration game that doesn't take itself too seriously, you get to explore various locations, solve numerous puzzles, and interact with a variety of characters. Avoid if you aren't into Futa.

+Interesting world, nothing too special, but still quite enjoyable to go through
+Plenty of NPCs with different personalities and scenes
+Fun, challenging puzzles that leave you scratching your head at times.
+Some level of MC customization via outfits and some transformation
+Dev is active within the community and the game is progressing even if a bit slowly.
+Good writing overall
+Animated scenes

-The models are a bit difficult to get used to at first
-Taxes can get pretty frustrating
-Animations are a bit jaggy, not terrible, but not great.

4/5 because VN-type exploration games that are actually fun = My weakness

Two hours in and the game has failed to grab me. It shows promise though, so I'll probably check it out when it's finished even though I wasn't motivated enough to reach the end of content in v0.4.0.
- The writing is solid and the dev doesn't rely on lore dumps.
- There are a few poor design choices. You have to get burgled by the vampire and tax collector when words really should just solve both of these problems. You give 4 potions to herbalist for zero reward. Ah, I supposed her having a outrageous dong is supposed to be the reward, but I could've used those potions for more material gains.
- The grind is a little irritating, though it's more an extension of the previous point. You always expect some grind in a sandbox game, but this game has a relatively common event in the forest which automatically ends the day.
- In what I played, it was all futa-on-futa with some tentacles-on-futa and futa-tentacles-on-futa. I don't mind futa, but I feel that sticking too close to the main theme (any theme) ends up making said theme feel a bit weaker. For example, if a work is themed around gigantic breasts, these gigantic breasts have more appeal if there is also a character or two who are merely D-cups. Adds a bit of spice to the roster. The tax collector may fill the niche of male-on-futa, but I still feel adding some tamer fetishes would help the more advanced fetishes stand out instead of simply being "Jerking a dong that's as big as you are? Throw it on the pile."

This might be the greatest combination of kinks ever. It is unapologetic in its use of kinks and will knock you on your ass if you are vanilla. 10/10 would play again. Can't wait for the next update and the sequel.

Great art and not too grindy! Wide range of scenes without being repetitive. Compared to other games like it, I would definitely recommend this immediately.

While I am not personally into the "furry" aspect, I feel it fits incredibly well within the story without being there just to pander to that fetish, and only adds to the range of topics this game can touch on to extend it's target audience.

Only thing I would complain about is the lack of recent updates and wish there was even more content

Interesting scenes and characters, but I can't figure out puzzles just with *click* and *clonk* though, perhaps more visual cues are needed (statues and chest).
Would also like to have multiple transformations work at the same time and not limit character interaction so much. With this it would be a solid 5/5

English isn't my native language
Honestly I used to hate futa until I played this game... I didn't know it was with futanari so I played and now I like it.
But this game isn't perfect due to some bugs (rare) who make crash the game but if you saves there isn't any worries.
It would be cool to add different types of sex like 3some , gangbang or others positions

amazing game if you like futa content!

has a substantial amount of characters, scenes, and other content as well as very large areas to explore and things/puzzles to experiment with, plus there are regular bug fixes and the game has been consistently updated in large content patches

has a nice mix of having game-elements (puzzles, exploring, managing resources, finding items, managing relationships, etc) without ever being overbearing on needing to grind or going too complex on the game mechanics or technical skill as well as having fairly expansive (and consistent) lore that is also optional to learn about

amazing game if you like futas, growth/transformation content (BE, etc, although a much smaller focus than the futa aspect), pregnancies, monster girls, and/or the idea of a world that is only inhabited by women/futas who essentially survive off cum alone

[v0.2.1] Review

Ok sorry but I don't get the appeal here at all. There was a severe mismatch between my expectations and reality going in. How is this game getting bombarded with 5-star reviews!? I feel cheated. This is about as far from a 5 as I can imagine.

There's somehow "content" in here but I can't seem to progress at all. The game has a fuckton locations and people to talk to but nothing happens when I explore and talk to people. I've tried going to the forest about 50 times now, in the beginning that opened up some new locations but now everything I find are random item drops. I've tried talking to everyone at the locations, checked everything in the manor, and all the other locations I've found. Still nothing. The only journal "hint" is find out more about the manor. Yea thanks, don't you think I'm trying? I have some potions in my inventory but I can't drink them, becasue "I can't do that yet". What?! Then why do I even have them!?! Jesus christ this game design is so stupid.

There's a walkthrough on the Discord, or so I'm told, but the link there is broken.

This is what I'd like to call "needle-in-a-haystack gaming" where you're looking for that one event trigger out of a possible hundred or so locations and/or interactions. I can't imagine this game being even remotely playable at all without a walkthrough. There's absolutely zero indication of where to go and what to do, with dead ends everywhere. What's the point of having open-world and exploration mechanics when everything I'm able to find are dead ends? This is just absolute shit game design. Sorry for being harsh, but it's the truth.

Also I can see from the reviews that apparently this game is 100 % futa-on-futa (or solo futa). That wasn't clear at all from the game description, and had I known this from the start then I would probably have left the game alone. It does have the [vaginal sex] tag, so that kinda mislead me into thinking there'd be some normal girls getting dicked by futas in this. Wrong by me, apparently.

This just felt like a huge waste of time. Not recommended.

That's a very very good game, very articulate , with a loooot of contents.
An old school game that pinch always the right point if you like futa/bestiality.
The pictures are very cute, but the video are very short.
The most irritating thing in this game is that all the best scenes are disturbed by the ren'py GUI, the autor really should think of move upper the videos.
That's the only reason because I didn't gave 5 star.
But really, this game is really enjoyable and I played it for 2 days with lot of fun.
Naturally I want to mark it again: ALL FUTA.

Really good and fun VN. Lots of content as well.
Renders are nice, and the MC is sexy.
Could use a way to tell the time of day, and a better guide.
I can't access my inventory in the frozen town. Gives me an error screen. Have to quit and re-load the whole game.
Maybe add a quest tracker with help. I can't find the escaped prisoner.
What is the code for the box near the blue lady. How do you talk to the blue lady?
Several areas in Duskvale are not open, or I haven't figured out how to open them yet.
Overall
It's a good VN with good renders, and loads of content for a v0.2
Could do with a better inventory, and a guide/quest tracker/help system. Other than that, I recommend it. Give it a try.
Looking for ward to seeing where this journey goes. Good luck to the dev
