Ren'Py - Wartribe Academy [v1.9.6 Public] [Mr.Rooster]

In a nutshell, the story line is great. With the implementation of Fast Travel, it helps greatly with the main story line (or waifus).
The thing that is lacking are hints for the side stories.
Don't know if some of the main story is/are dependent on the progression of some of the side stories. IMHO, why put it there if people don't know about it.

Story 2/5
I did like the story but some parts just dosent make any kind of sense which in turn ruined the story for me, its also a kinetic story where the only freedom you have is what order you do quests in, but your forced to follow all girls quests to progress story, which means it will include rape, LIs forced on you and not just all the main girls others as well, so think of it as a mindless fuckfest game with no choices.

Right from the start you see one of your potential wifes getting attack by a thug and instend of attacking MC calls for the guards? to make it worse he then see him a min later and listen in on him talking with someone who set up the ambush and he said he has a letter which would prove who he was hired by and what does MC do....he freaking walks away thinking it might be a good idea to get that letter since it might be worth something? what? MC is a barbarian a warrior so why the fuck does he act like a cowardly chicken? go kick hes ass take letter problem fixed....awfull writting stright from the get go.

To make it even worse if you want to get revenge on the bitch sister your forced to fuck her??? why? a plan is made to let a servant fuck her but you cant make that choice you can only take the servants place and fuck her then leave? its absolutly insane i wouldent want to touch her ass with a 10ft pole after what she did to MCs potential wife and thats the only way to get payback on her? its brainless.

Also MC is supposed to be looking for a wife but your never given the choice to dump anyone you dont like, instend you can follow along on a questline to fuck em all, game truely needs alot better choices when it comes to this part, i mean you have a lesbian whos in a relationship with someone and wants nothing to do with MC and yet MC is only thinking about getting closer to her instend of dumping her, not even when you see her having sex with someone else can you dump her, i mean whats the point of the game if you cant truely pick your wife and dump those you dont want?

It would have made for a so much better game if you could walk in on them tell her to go pack her things and leave your house, i simply just dont understand why that isent even an option, hell you dont even confront her about it??? story just loses its meaning, MC even lets the potential wifes lover move in and work for MC? why the fuck would he want her anywhere near someone he might marry? knowing shes already cheated once in her last relationship? how the hell do something like that even make any sense, but it shows how submissive and brainless MC really is i guess...

As for the girls its also a bit meh, i mean they look ok but the builds are pretty much the same so it really lack in diversity which is to bad, personaly im not really into big tits in any way and theres not a single one with smaller tits as for the main girls, well maybe the lesbian but i dont see her as a real LI, and to make it perfectly shitty even Reah the lesbian girl gets her boobs made huge, i mean wtf the one girl with close to normal tits? and you cant say no only skip the option its kinetic and awfull to make a pure big tit fetish game.

Out of 5 main girls one is a lesbian another is BI and you will see both of them have sex with another girl as well, so they are out of the runnings as a wife atleast for me anyway, it just feels idiotic that a girl who wants to marry MC starts having sex with another girl right infront of him without asking MC about it first, its so importen for her to become MCs wife so risking that just makes 0 sense for the story.

And to make it a bit more stupid, its also pretty much rape in the Magna scene, since Magna blindfolds a girl and move MC into the room to fuck her without the girl ever giving concent to be fucked by MC, aka pretty clear cut rape case and they should add the tag for that as well, it could have been so easy to fix with a simple choice to say no to it...

And ofcause you cant just dump her right there and then either which i would have loved to do...instend your forced to fuck/rape some random girl? which is just to weird since you have had options to turn down girls before but now game starts forceing them on you and thats just a big no go for me, i hate forced LIs in a game with choices, might as well make it kinetic.

Twins story is also awfull, i mean why is MC brainless to accept the twin that works with the mother and tried to kill off the first sister to take her place?
MC just say "i guess ill risk it" wtf? how about sending her back, kill her, kill the evil mother that kills human kids i mean why on earth is MC so submissive and a complete idiot, its no fun playing him at all.

Its also pushing the NTR limit quite a bit, you can say sure they arent in a relationship so its not lesbian NTR when you catch one of your potential wives having sex with someone, but you also have Ezra who you can have a sexual relationship with and still get to see her getting fuck by a Futa spirit thing, so yeah...its up to you to make the dession if its NTR to you or not, some can be avoided some can not.

Virgin scenes are truely piss poor, MC can fuck a virgin rough without her having any pain what so ever, no blood either so for the virgin/deflower fans theres really nothing to come for either, which is kinda funny since almost if not all girls are virgins and all without exception fucks like a 2$ whore not even remotely close to give any kind of virgin vibe and given how big a thing it is in the game its sad to see so little effort put into making it more real.

There is a relationship system of some kind but where it tells you when your relationship with someone goes up, the thing is its bullshit you can have 0 points with someone and it changes nothing.

I think i will stop talking about the story now, you can see the lack of choices and how brainless and cowardly MC is by now to give you an idea of how this game is.

Girls 2/5
I dident really find them hot and with the lack of diversity it dident help either, there are a few with smaller builds but they arent real LIs and not some you can marry.

Animations 3/5
Pretty standard not great not bad either, alot of scenes do have really bad cam views though.

Music 3/5
Standard tunes nothing special.

Choices 1/5
When game started to force LIs on you as the player and not being able to say no to join sex/rape scene made it feel to kinetic instend of a choice driven game.

Dev does have the potential to make great stories, but really need to pay alot more attention to choices, so the players arent forced into things they dont want.

WA, I've played this game for sometime now. Everything's good. The graphics, the stories, the characters and even the modes. All are good. Especially the story, it's very emotional at some points. Lots thing have changed since the first release. It's good though. I gotta say give it a try and you'll see what I meant.

Issamazing game! I love the characters and the story is great thank you for making such amazing visual novel game. and don't think of abandoning this game, cause I want to see the happy ending. thank you again mister. May your harvest abound.

I enjoyed this game quite a bit, enough to give it the max rating.

Pros:
+Cute girls, and a variety of girls, some for almost any preference
+Enjoyable banter and conversations. I never felt like I was slogging through content
+Backstory makes for an interesting situation. I never felt like the backstory was overwhelming other parts of the game, but it gave a nice context to the action
+No grind or annoying repetition of scenes/actions. (e.g. no need to get 5 blow jobs before having sex)
+Most girls' bodies are visually distinct: have big tits, flat chests, animal ears, tattoos, etc.

Cons:
-The MC can feel a little like a non-character at times. Would have been cool to have some scenes about what he does outside of wooing girls to get a bit more of a feel for who he is
-Occasionally, the story can feel a bit disjointed when moving between events (e.g. I'll click on the city, and end up seeing a scene back in the academy involving my character. Not sure if this is a bug or by design)

Personal Preference:
~Animation is nice, but can be a little janky at times. I still think it's better than not having any animation
~Need to progress all the girls to advance the story, can't skip girls you don't like (although you can skip a lot of scenes if you don't want to see them, especially for side characters)
~Some of the girls (especially for those that are virgins) seem to be ready to sleep with the MC quite fast

Overall, a nice little fun romp spent with a host of girls trying to get in your pants for various reasons, with a fun sprinkling of fantasy stuff on top of the swords and spells setting.

As of Version 1.8.0 Public

I enjoyed the entire playthrough of the game. The plot is interesting and the girls have fairly unique personalities. Some of the animations are janky. The music is ok. The game is sandboxy, choices do matter. However, the story progression of different characters is interlinked so you cannot ignore a certain character.

The most favorite part of mine were Ezra's gender-bend arc, Magna's and Rhea's plotlines.

There are a few issues though:
Primarily, the MC's backstory is not explored much, which I would like.
Secondly, the gallery has only animations which is underwhelming. To watch scenes we need to have saves making it cumbersome. I have a suggestion here, maybe the scenes could be added to the brothel dream room as another category like "Memories".

This game still makes it into my favorites though. Would recommend playing to anyone who likes this art style.

This review will be shorter than usual as I did not finish the game, only managing a couple hours of gameplay.

The spelling and grammar is okay and the girls are reasonably attractive, and there's an innocuous music soundtrack playing during most scenes.

The problem is that both the story and adult content are low quality. Genitalia are often noticeably out of sync during animations and the scenes are over all too quickly. Because you're romancing so many different love interests it's already difficult getting too attached to them, and the issues with the adult scenes led to none of the scenes working for me as the uncanny valley was too distracting. Writing during the adult scenes was also lackluster, and there were very few renders in-between different animations. The replay gallery contains just animations alone without the accompanying story making them all but useless, and while I only managed to get through two hours of the "story", checking the gallery confirmed that I wasn't missing anything as the adult content didn't improve later on.

The story is so-so. A thin veneer of a country at war which serves only as an excuse to bed multiple women who want to curry favor, devolving into a not-so-robust dating sim template that wasn't particularly appealing.

Not much else to say. I won't be finishing this one.

Porn collect-a-thon right here.

I'll start by saying that I like fair few girls in this one, and actively disliked others. And that's where my problem with the game lies...you can't refuse girls.

Oh, you can skip a scene or two, but after that MC will decide this girl is amazing and he'll have sex with her...few times, no player input asked.

Kind of kills the point of the story (choose a best bride, resolve mystery).

Sex scenes are (mostly) fairly good, story is just a filler so H scenes can happen, and girls get added constantly.

Strongly recommended if you're looking for H content, not recommended if you're looking for a game where choices impact anything or if you're looking for story in general.

as per v 1.7.2

Objectively,

STORY 7/10
Asian medieval themed, with lil bit of magic and supernatural being touch. simple and on point, you are a prince of a war tribe and you got to choose your princess and dive into their story so they will want to marry you and strengthen your tribe. Its simply dating pre marriage game. what i see seem to be lacking is the mc own story, the story seem too focus on the dating girls, maybe some touches in building mc own story, mc own tribe problem will strengthen mc core story as a war tribe future leader. I just slightly cant accept that my existence as mc is just to marry a girl while neglecting my duty.

GAMEPLAY 7/10
quite sandboxie yet simple but no grinding. anti grind gamer gotta feel glad. i like the freedom of pursue LI you want and ignore LI you dont really into. the non existence of time setting is quite odd but it also provides less restriction as you can keep rolling with an LIs events without restraint of time. As i dug into the game, i knew i like ezra story and I just dug in until her (supposably?) end of story for this version lol. I think some event trigger ties between some LIs but i feel there are even more LIs event that is independent, so yeah aside of option that can turn down LI you can also avoid LI if you are not into them, nothing forced which is cool.

GRAPHIC 7/10
art is ok. its good. slightly beyond good but not by that much. theres enough variety of pose when having conversation or pose to support the conversation and moments. altho i found some scenes frame cut are odd. some of them couldve been zoomed out or modified to be more adequately presentable. for example a scene which shows LI full body but the genital part is like cut by half. an extra 1 point for providing post coital bliss moment in almost every sex scenes, i wish these moment scene polished some more, with proper animation of post coital bliss moment that will be another 1 point in my book. Another 1 point if virgin LIs are properly shown as virgin with proper virgin bleed moment or ending which currently void.

UI 7/10
setting ui is typical renpy ui. nothing special. as for in game ui its simple and easy to explore. the extra area where theres chicken coop(?) is too gimmicky for now, its an extra area but theres only one accessible spot. wouldve been less gimmicky if there are more accessible spot in the future and not just this one but also other town sub area which can provide repeatable spicy scene with extra characters like massage parlor or the brothel. there arent that many extra elements of ui implemented because flag/stats information implemented in a way to reduce graphical elements for example LIs relation status.

THE SEGGS 8/10
id say there are enough contents to help anyone fap. for this amount of development id say its quite rich. with the freedom of pursuing LI you want, ignore others, and the no time restraint, its even faster to just keep rolling with the LI that you want. its also interesting that some LI that are not listed as major LI also have decent story to back them up. the scenes duration and built up also good, i wish theres more dirty/bed talk, or some spicy narrative to describe the joy of sex and built up the heat even more, and the closure which mostly end with the show of post coital bliss moment also makes it proper and perfect.

Subjectively,
what make me give a 5* is i have a favorite character here that is not even major LI which is Ezra. As a devoted fan of genderbending fetish, Ezra story is just right up my alley, the submissive genderbendered slave - master relationship. Fortunately, even though she is not major LI she is packed with decent story that seem to be still developing, and hopefully her story leveled up to be equal with major LI amount of story level because she is unique.

Her existence alone in this game rise this game position into my personal top 20, and top 5 of genderbender/trap/futa LI game. it could been higher if there is glamour to choose whether you want to keep her as trap, genderbendered or even futa character. it will surely be trickier with the scenes, or even introduce more branches.

so far theres seem to be no red flagged corrupted kink like incest, ntr, gay, shemale or wilder tags altho some couldve been slip in into some events naturally. with that being said, this game quite pure in fetishes so i recommend this game for wider audience who afraid of highly debated kinks since this game is quite mild, even vanilla audience.

good luck for the development dev, thanks for the game and i hope the game will gain more fame and support.

still digging deep with more LI and probably will add more review later.
kudos~

This game has plenty of story and content. Its kind of a harem honey select game. The game is fine and I had no problem with it, I just don't find the characters appealing. Other than that, a good game, just not my cup of tea. Can't really fap to this. Good luck to the dev tho. Before I go a few notes, the text box needs to go, it obscures a lot of the good parts of the scenes. This game needs voices, moaning's, whatever, just add some extra sounds. And also add some sexy music, listening to the same track over and over and over gets old.

Someone once said, "You can please some of the people some of the time, but not all the people all of the time." I know there are those who do not like this game, but that is the reason I opened with that quote, do not let any negative view deter you from doing what you enjoy, because you cannot make everyone happy,

With that I would like to say that I love this game! It has such a variety of events, interactions and the freedom to pretty much go in any direction with one or multiple events and still maintain continuity to the game no matter which direction you decide to go is amazing to me. I am definitely becoming a contributing supporter and look forward to what is yet to come.

So, why the 2?

I rather enjoy the premise of this game, the setting and plot is intriguing at first.

What however does drag it down is that it slowly but surly become bipolar in nature.
What I mean with this is that conversations with characters flip around so often it becomes confusing.
What is in one conversation a secret, is in the next conversation public knowledge, with no explanation of why or how.
What is explained just minutes earlier, is in the next scene though about like "oh right you wern't told", except you were, by the exact same person, just moments ago.


This is prevalent the longer you progress in the game. It loses its coherency as you go on. And if you only played it occasionally, every few updates or so, it might not be very noticeable. But if you went through it in one go as I did, it becomes incredibly confusing.
The game contradicts previously established points quite often. It is also something that is quite annoying.

Things that were set in place far earlier in the game is just missing in the current later parts of the game. It's like its shown, explained and then forgotten.

Then there is also the fact that the MC in question is about as much of a character as a wet blanket.
No matter what happens, what people say or do towards the MC, MCs reaction and response is... none. Its the kind of person you can slap with a trout and they would just go "oh well" and shrug. Which is both annoying and rather dull. No matter what is done towards the MC there is never a reaction to it. There is no personality to it and there is far from enough choice to create your own personality. So it ends with just, nothing. MC just accept anything and everything. And thats just not particularly interesting.

There is a good premise, and I would like to think there is potential as well. I did after all play through all the current content (1.5.1) and was interested enough to do that continuously. But it simply dropped the ball, and at this point, it would need some rather hefty retcons to fix this loss of coherency and continuity.

This one definitely surprised me as usually I am not a fan of Honey Select games or games that have sandbox in them but based on my friend's suggestion I decided to give this one a try. Although the start of the story was pretty weak but it just kept getting better as the story progressed. As for the LIs in this game, I liked all of them which was a genuine surprise. Each one of their stories are very different and I love that how deep some of their backstories were. The only complaint I have is that there a few sequences where the MC becomes too soft and let other characters completely walk over him which would have been fine if he was a normal guy but here it just didn't make sense. Also Luce needs some character development as she is the weakest LI as of current release and also I would love if we could summon Ezra and Josie as well in MC's bedroom.

Of the infinite harem games out there, this is definitely one of the best. Solid characterization, good writing, and a fairly broad array of characters to interact with. It's not perfect, a few of the character sprites look a little wonky, but overall its well animated and tends to avoid the frustrating aspects that many of these games have.

Great writing, perfect sandbox design (in the sense that there's a quick travel button which I used exclusively and completely ignored the map), pretty graphics. Love the dialogue, the excellent, diverse cast of characters that are attractive and have their own individual personalities and intricate plot points. Good but not great porn and dirty talk.

This game is a conundrum to review. Honestly, don't be fooled by glowing reviews and dont take the worst reviews to heart either. This game is fundamentally flawed in a fairly major way, which knocks it down to average, whereas it has shining moments which push it back up again, so I believe a 3 star rating is the most fair and truthful analysis. Now, I am reviewing it on the "sandbox" setting (actually i believe the game calls it the "free roam" instead but whatever, so perhaps someone who has played it on the VN style would give it a better rating.

The issue with the game is that it has no chronological continuity, neither in solo nor as a whole. It is based on the assumption that you click on the spots where you know the girls will be, hoping to further plot with each of them. Now, when you DO manage to click something right, each individual LI plot is different and very well thought out. That's the plus. The UI is a mess, there is little to no interaction between the girls themselves, only between the MC and each one individually. Which brings me to the MC.

While the girls have a fairly interesting plotline, the MC is... well... nothing special. The game tries to give you a feeling of control by offering you tiny moral choices that are supposed to reflect your personality, but the actual personality displayed by the MC is bipolar, and switches between knight in shining armor and borderline rapey asshole, regardless of choices.

Plotlines can be triggered before you do what you are "supposed" to do with a given girl, resulting in dialogues basically telling you that you suck at gaming.. no i am not kidding. I mean it doesnt say that directly to your face but it does say that you should have done "that" and "that" in your room first..

Anyway, with a super UI overhaul, (or free roam elimination altogther), and some writing style changes, this game is definitely potentially a 5*.

Have a great day.

Last played at 1.2.1. Interesting premise for a story. Some fun choices, some painful choices.

LIs were varied, interesting and attractive, and it's always fun to see assets that don't look identical to other games. I'm interested in seeing where this goes!

This game has some pretty good moments but also some very bad moments that really drag it down for me personally. My biggest problems with the game are the MC and the lack of player agency when it really matters.

The individual LI's stories are something I think the dev did really well. They are all different and it fit well with their individual personalities, another thing I have to give props for. The LI's themselves are unique enough in personality to where your not just seeing the same character with a different body like you do with some other games.

The same thing can't be said for the MC however. Through the majority of the game he is just another dime a dozen horny creeper you've seen a thousand times before. It is imposable to try and be gentleman in this game because the MC is always making some out of place crude "joke" that every LI finds oh so charming and irresistible. Then there will be a completely out of character moment by the MC where he acts like a knight in shinning armor and is head over heels in love with the LIs, just to return to his normal pervy self the next scene.

Now to the player agency I mentioned earlier, every event in this game is very heavily railroaded. They play out one way, whether you like it or not. It wouldn't be to bad per se, but it is always the MC doing something that bothers me personally. The guy is a creep, he has his way with many of them regardless of what they say. He will come right out and say "No, I've waited long enough we are doing this now." and proceed to have sex with them even if they say wait or stop. It's rapey, but it's okay. Why? because it is always covered up by some convenient inner monologue that says she is really fine with it but doesn't want to admit it. Don't want to borderline rape a virgin, to bad the MC has other plans and like all the scenes the player has no say in it. It's handled poorly in my opinion.

The main story itself is pretty none existent. Your a prince that is looking for a wife and your dead mother may not be dead. That's basically the entirety of it at this point. The only real goal you have is to sleep with the LIs and see who you want to be your wife. It's conveniently set up to where your country allows multiple wives because you know, it's a harem game. There is nothing inherently wrong with that, it actually works for this particular set up with the events be so linier. You kind of have to be with every LI whether you like them or not, another thing that seems to be forced onto the player.

There are also a few continuity issues that I have found. One of the being that to progress one LI's story you need to get a BJ from another one. When that scene happens she does it and is fine with it but the next time you ask her for one she then acts like she should have before for her first BJ with you. Again, I use the word ask very loosely here, he tells her that is what is going to happen, one way or another.

TLDR: Over all the game has some moments that really shine but are ultimately dragged down by the creeper/rapey MC and lack of player control in the scenes that make up the bulk of the game.

A great story with lots of different types plus some of them are interchangeable (able to pick your preference on more than one occurrence), plus a reliable Dev. Whats not to like? Definitely worth a read.

-So far, I'm enjoying the game. However, sex scenes happen WAY to fast with the girls. Even the side "quest". There is barely any buildup at all. This really takes me out of it. Hi my name is ---- oh we are naked now. Oh your a virgin? lets just fix that after saying hello for the first time.
-Need to zoom out on the scene's more, you can barely even see yourself in them.
-Some scenes are disjointed. And look odd in respect to the motion of the girl/your penis.
-Writing is.. really good sometimes. Then really shallow in others. Kind of goes back to my first point though.
-Need more options for the characters on how you interact with them. ESPECIALLY the "servants". Damn you can feel like an outright asshole to them and it's suppose to be the right path. Maybe you just met and she doesn't want to jerk you off without repercussions? Sure you could make her.. but it should make something change in the interactions. Such as you loose out on help down the road for another task.
