VN - Ren'Py - Wasteland Guardians [v0.3] [SenseiDaimon]

Güzel ve oynamaya değer bir oyun. Daha fazla aksiyon sahnesi olsaydı daha iyi olurdu. Seks sahneleri tam yerinde ama keşke kızımızla olan sahneleri daha çok düşünseydik, sonuçta o ana karakterin kendi kızı. Yeni bölümleri sabırsızlıkla bekliyorum. Ve oyundaki kızımız benim en sevdiğim karakter, çok seksi.

Played v0.3 – rather linear visual novel with a male mc in a post apocalyptic world. Seems to have been inspired by a certain other game, but sadly not as interesting. Also seems to be pretty incest focused with the mc lusting after his daughter and a “stepsister” and a “stepmother” about to be introduced.
Has a bunch of skip-able minigames and qicktime events.
Personally I found it rather boring. Also only has a handful of sex scenes – pretty short and nothing really interesting. The story also seems to be all over the place.
I tried it for the male domination tag – meh – there’s one light spanking scene with the daughter and a choking scene with one other character. There are also some scenes with some light domination (blowjob, sex) but nothing interesting.
Maybe try it in a few years again, but as of right now, it’s not worth it.

Very happy to see a game full of the potential to rival desert stalker and it has already surpassed the Hot Sand of Antarcica which is now already an abandoned work.

Based on an post-apocalytic world, it is inevitable to compare it with games of same background. The game has strong advantage in its humorous narrative. It also always matches the right sounds with the scenes, including moaning sounds of female characters, which are very, very rare in visual novels in general. The modeling of female characters also demonstrate first-class aesthetics. Though some are against incest, and it is sure such goofing around with MC's daughter will last until they make vaginal sex (it always means it is close to the end of the game development), I am still delighted to witness and experience the developing of their retionship - approximating and breaking taboos.

Still, I feel obliged to say that it makes players feel confused starting the game with female perspective. This may have an impact later in the plot, but it just makes not much sense so far. A male-dominating story like this usually only attracts particular kinds of players.

Version 0.3

It starts off pretty well. You do need to sit through an FMC sequence, but you eventually get to the MMC. The minigames can be skipped (which I did because why are there still minigames in AVNs) but the choices seem to matter... at first.

The story was interesting enough to keep my attention. I don't like all of the info-dump "ask this person a series of questions" parts which really do come up too frequently. The MC is middle-aged and has a daughter who is an LI. Cool - liked that. There are choices to give in or resist... a lot of those choices, actually. If it's not your thing, it's going to remind you that the option is there... a lot.

Somewhere around when the MC meets Rose, the story just kind of shits itself. The MC, who has been smart and reasonable up to this point, starts making the dumbest decisions he possibly could in any situation. There are also a couple of forced lewd scenes that I didn't want any part of. I have URM going, so it didn't seem to be on account of my previous choices/stats... I just don't get it. It was going well, then it just took a turn off of a cliff.

I didn't care about the FMC beginning, and honestly, if I continue this game (which is undecided at this point) I don't think I'd choose to pursue her, if even given the choice anymore (choices seem to be a luxury we can't afford in the later part of what I've played.

If you're thinking about playing this... give it more time to cook and hopefully it gets back on track and the MC finds the brain he seems to have left behind at some point...

AVN had the potential to be a good game, but alas... And it's not even about QTEs and riddles - the plot is weak and the further you go, the worse it gets. Random events, little connected with each other, intrigue on the level of kindergarten, contrived mystery.

And the characters are something else. Firstly, they are incredibly stupid and not logical. Secondly, many of them are just plain crazy, and not just a little bit, but totally crazy. And it would be better if they were some raiders, but no - these are members of the most sane and successful community. It is amazing HOW this community still functions with such members, especially those occupying the highest places in the hierarchy.

MC is a miracle - he is the best, he can do everything, he is the strongest, the cleverest (which is not so difficult), his opinion is decisive for everyone, including the queen, he is the only one who can stop the attack of the raiders. A Mary Sue in a nutshell.

All of these attributes (queen, raiders, community, intrigue, etc.) are shamelessly lifted from other successful AVNs (post-apocalyptic and a few others) and duct-taped to this one. And the funny thing is, if it were a parody of post-apocalyptic games, it might work. But alas, there's not much humour in it. Yes, there are a few funny moments, but otherwise all these ridiculous things are presented in all seriousness. It's a disaster...

There's another problem - there's not enough porn. And what there is is of poor quality. There is a daughter here, but everything is limited to innocent pranks. It's funny that the setting and the daughter herself seem to encourage hot sex, but the MC, who in other circumstances is ready to fuck anything that moves, is left out here.

Other than that - the art is good, not bad composition, nice background, interesting setting and idea. That's about it.

good renders, decent story and dialogue, which is rare for an 'alpha male game' to not have cringe dialogue, mechanics aren't great but choices seem to matter at least a little

dev is tracking decisions and reputation in game, so it's promising

seems like the games gotten some sub par reviews due to mentally ill people being so upset they played as a girl for all of 3 minutes at the beginning of the game

cool scenario! cant wait for more. so please do faster updates to make folowers here happy mate. Great models and game. more sex scenes would be great and be more dominant! Hope soon! you should get more support.

I really like the father-daughter relationship in this game; it develops properly and makes a lot of sense within the context the game provides.

Additionally, the female character designs are very well done. The story is fairly average—it reminds me a lot of Desert Stalker.

I look forward to seeing more of the development of such a seductive family relationship

Going into this game, I was immediately disappointed to find that the protagonist was female, which was not indicated in the tags or description. That was a letdown from the outset, and it certainly didn’t start things off on the right foot. When you go into a game expecting one thing and get something else, it can be frustrating, and that initial frustration made it harder to engage with the story.

That being said, from the little I experienced, the world itself seemed well thought out. The setting had depth, with a level of detail that suggested the developers put real effort into crafting an immersive environment. The lore and atmosphere were intriguing, and there were moments that hinted at a larger, interconnected story waiting to unfold. However, since my enthusiasm was already diminished from the character choice, I found it difficult to fully appreciate what the game was offering.

Perhaps for someone who isn’t bothered by playing as a female protagonist in a sexualised visual novel, this could be a worthwhile experience. But for me, the lack of transparency about this key detail soured the experience right away. First impressions matter, and unfortunately, this one didn’t start on the right note.

This game has a LOT of work to do before I'll call it good.

The writing is inconsistent and all over the place. The MC is incredibly oblivious for someone who supposedly has lasted in the wastes on his own for years, not even mentioning the obvious plot holes, bad grammar and sentence structure. You can tell an amateur wrote this: who walks into a pitch black tunnel without at least asking for a torch?

Decently pretty, but the dev is going to need to step it up in the writing if this one is going to last

So far so good, strong contender for a high quality novel. Was a bit worried at the start and thought I downloaded a wrong VN as it started with Female Protag, even went back and double checked lol. Just some small feedback that's my personal opinion.

Good writing, good premise, has a lot of foundations being built upon for how early it is. So far all interactions seem pretty smooth. A little extra flair with QTE's and minigames which arent necessarily needed but they're fine if its the vision of the author. Would prefer to scrap them just to not add additional work load and slow down future releases as they're just a bit of a gimmick and very simple.

Even the free roam sections could probably be scrapped in all honesty. (started disliking them as I played more novels to be honest, too many do it and again its just kind of a gimmick. most games usually have weird sequence breaks when they do this where you find something out earlier than intended, or somethings referenced out of place, or lastly you just straight up miss things because you do a wrong order. I have experienced that so often lol.. But particularly to this novel there isn't a lot of exploring, or doing much during these segments that couldn't just be done in a series rather than clicking a few people. Similarly with collectibles, could just appear in backgrounds during parts as well.)

I really look forward to future releases, only putting it as a 4 as theres just not much content yet. Could easily be shifted in future releases! Will likely give a way more in-depth review later on but for now its all I really got.

Ah actually upon reading other reviews.
It seems like the older versions had some troubles in the prior reviews, current release (v0.2) seemed perfectly fine to me. FMC is temporary and seems to have training of some kind. Until she bumps into the real MC who is basically a legend and pretty strong. Theres some gimmicks at the start that seemed to be just more silly like dodging grenades, wasn't a real indicator of which way to go (just roll back and your golden if you mess it up). Writing seemed totally fine too, outside maybe Chloe being a little too free spirited in an apocalypse but I feel like you kind of "shape her" over time with how you handle her in each event.

Very interesting story and good render

I haven't play AVN for story for a long time but when I found this AVN and give it a try

It gave me Mad Max vibe and I really like it and I hope the Dev continue this work and I haven't review on this site for a long time and I not see a lot of vote here so here I am

If you wanna find something to enjoy just give this one a try.

I loved it... i think its a great VN so far, and it has the potential to be one of the best dystopian VN.
Visuals are amazing and the soundtrack quite good
The story and the world building is very good far too
I liked MC and i liked that we can mold him with our choices (and the daughter too)
I also Loved the daugther and she is gonna be my Main Li, but i liked the other possible LIs too ...
if its harem im gonna add Zoe Valorie and Selene too.
Moroever i had to thank the dev that the fetishes are optional (thankfully we dont have forced lesbian content here like most of other VNs)
Finally i Highly recommend it and i enjoyed it a lot so far,
i bookmarked it and i cant wait for the next chapter.

5 stars as motivation. the plot seems well cared for and detailed, unlike many other games. Finally a father-daughter game, I've been waiting for it so long. the characters are beautiful and I hope with all my heart that this game can be completed and not abandoned. Please continue and don't give up. You can do a really good job with this game. Good luck Sensei

0.2 is much better than the first release.
It has a male MC and his "D" roaming the wasteland. the visuals are great,
and it has some good potential.

the weird QTE's are stupid, and it adds nothing other than annoyance.

and the free roam is unnessesary.

this game shines when it just tells a story. And let you make a choice here and there

edit, i have to change my rating the game is not getting better

Weird shit that has nothing to do with the description. Female protaginst, QTE elements out of the blue, choices leading to the instant game end from "turn left/right", sandbox - and none of the good writing in sight.

VERSION: 0.1
SUMMARY: Great start with much potential!

1. Great visuals. models are good looking
2. Written and structured well
3. Good setting and interesting plot, albeit simple, but potential is great.
4. Characters are interesting, at least not dull and simple minded in that they only care about screwing, they are more complex.
5. Sound is pretty good also.
6. Love the setting and style also, its got a bit more fun than something like Desert Stalker which is equally good but on other aspects.
7. Bit jarring starting with the female MC (not MC) but good change and new approach, could be interesting.

CONS:

1. Nothing comes to mind really right now, maybe a bit short and that makes it hard to really rate.
2. UI could use a little more work, the free roam also needs more user friendliness, getting on from warehouse section was iffy because locations that are available are not readily apparent, causing the player frustration looking for something to light up on the cursor.

FINAL THOUGHTS:
Not much here right now to rate, but what is there is pretty good and I look forward to seeing more of it.
Hopefully there will be animations.
I hope the dev keeps quality good and improves upon it.

This is really good. Really good story and the characters look great. Cant wait for more updates. It has that Desert Stalker vibes but it is still very interesting and has its own lore that makes it a bit unique

This game is of to a good start, but it's not perfect yet. The FMC and the MC are pretty likeable expect for the supposed badass MC doing yoga? Wtf is up with that? The ''daughter'' is really cute en hot at the same time, like her too! But some characters are really not my cup of thea, like the feminest lesbian who molests you while you are trying to take a shower? My god woman fuck off! The rest are fine i guess.. Renders are really good looking and the story is good. You can shape the FMC and MC to what you want, like kind or bad, sub or dom and i like that but will we play as the FMC again after this intro? I don't know but i would like to. Some things could have been better i my opinion though, like for example: Don't auto advance the dialogue EVER! I really hate when they do that since i am not a native english speaker and can't read the text that fast. Speaking of the english in this game, there are quite a few spelling errors that even i know are not supposed to be there and schould be fixed in the future. QTE events are fine i guess as they are but keep them as they are now, simple and easy, and i don't think anybody will really have a problem with them. Like i said overall a good start and looking forward to future updates!

Did these 5 star raters even play the game? unlikely.

This game is best summed up with the word pathetic.

The characters are all utterly pathetic, the men are so emasculated its embarrassing one talks about being an empath completely unironically. Im sure at some point 'he' will tell you about energy crystals and esssential oils.

The MC is an absolute pathetic cuck who has never experienced women and thinks it's cool to be a yoga guru. They try to make him seem like an action hero in a cripplingly unconvincing manner like only a pathetic loser would think

The naming is all terrible, character names and cringingly 'the community', whoa, sooooo mysterious and edgy. At one point utterly gross character shami or sharni (terrible font) and abuses the protagonist at the time and then forces you into a nasty shared shower scene, while at the same time making up some cringy feminist rant when you meet her

There are obnoxious pathetic minigames every 2 seconds which serve zero purpose as its basically all a kinetic novel. On top of that, navigation is utterly pathetic with all the zones hidden in stupid locations which arent obvious at all and the render/camera is often at weird 20 degree angles.

The writing as touched on above, is the absolute worst part of this pathetic game. Pathetic mc reminiscing on risking his life to get some motel art which makes no sense but shows how pathetic he is. Idiot daughter who can recognise a dildo but not a microwave. Edgelord group descriptions and constant thoughts on mc showing he is pathetic with no self control

The renders are ok. They dont seem to live up to the preview images.
