Ren'Py - Welcome to Erosland [v0.0.15] [PiXel Games]

I'm quite surprised by the overall rating of this game. It lacks any coherent story, the progression is just based on following the specific prompts and it seems like the developer forgot about the fact that the MC decided to open a ?theme park? Because the one character is completely corrupted and yet there's only two "attractions", neither of which fit a park whatsoever.

The art is great, I love the outfit progression mechanics, and the scenes are awesome. But for the concept of "recruit girls from the multiverse to work in your perverted park", it is lacking the girls, the recruitment, and the park.

I would come back and change my rating once the developer fleshes out the character roster and the park roster or else shifts the idea to "make a girl work in cafe and get harassed" because that's currently most of what it is. And it does that well, but there's really no game here besides that.

Welcome to Erosland [v0.0.8] review

Genre:
Linear sandbox click-grinder VN.

Positives:
+Art

Negatives:
- Very basic convoluted story. (Pretty much a copy+paste of Akabur's Star Channel 34, but without Akaburs witty/funny writing style.)
- Linear sandbox.
- Excessively grindy (And not the fun grind where you need to sometimes use your brain. In this game you just click, click, click to repeat actions and move back and forth between areas and change the time of day. No brain is required. 9 times out of 10 what you need to do is just repeat what you did yesterday.)
- Formulaic & uninspired progression. (Grope her 4 times and then she suddenly likes it, then escalate by kissing her until she reaches 10 points, then oral etc. Repeat, repeat, repeat. Of course only one of these actions per day allowed.) What a snoozefest.
- Terrible writing. The author is utterly incapable of recreating how actual human women talk and act. Repeatedly groping a woman and forcing her to work for you will suddenly make her like you. U wot m8? I'm getting strong sexbot vibes from the female cast. They are programmed to like you if you pester them enough. The MC has the personality of wet cardboard, in addition to being pretty darn creepy.

All in all, this just feels like a sex scene simulator with extra steps. The art is good, but that's not nearly enough to carry a full game. Especially when there's a provocative amount of grind of the worst possible kind and the writing is so cringy it'll make your skin crawl. This game needs a writer who can portray women, and maybe tell a joke or two, to stand a chance in today's lewd gaming market.

Excellent game.

Good
- Good Art
- Pacing feels good with events placed well
- Scenes are attractive
- The characters have some development
- Generally well written

Neutral
- The management system could be fleshed out a bit more

Bad
- Minor, but some of the UX feels clunky. Some QoL updates when switching from day/night/end day would be nice.
- Some of the events in the rooms become repetitive as you have to trigger them before speaking to the girls

This could end up being one of my very favorites. The art, pacing, story, and tone are all right up my alley. Love the training and corruption aspects. Reminds me of Akabur in some ways but with less grinding and more of what made his stuff good.

I'll be supporting this one.

I noticed Pixel Games are underrated. While their games are simple and dialogues far from shakespearian (sex talk maybe is very simple but it gets me and to be honest it is essence of dirty talk) art style is both incredibly sexy and cute at the same time and i love their view of sexual cursing aswell (why the fck slut should be negative perk anyway). Loved their previous game but it has one big flaw - it is to short. Have big hopes Erosland will be game with bigger scope thou personally would preffer that they would focus on Raven (yes - female protagonist).

Short review: One of the best corruption games out there with a very simple management system, a cool clothing system, plenty of hot scenes, and good writing.

Long (er) review:

The good:

Art/image quality is 10/10. Not much to say here, Pixel Games has wonderful art as always. Only the small kissing animations are a bit strange but that's a very minor thing

Story/Characters: 9.5/10. The story itself is very basic, you're building a theme park that's a haven for perverts, and in order to succeed you have to slutify your workers, that's it. But it doesn't need anything more, the simple story allows for the game's other strengths to shine more, which are good writing, hot characters, amazing outfit customization, and a great corruption system.

A complex story with convoluted management systems would severely hinder how fun it is to play this game.

The bad:
Not much to say really, I guess the only bad thing is that there isn't more content (though already there are tons of scenes).

Personal note: I'd say this game is a little less kinky than their previous and existing titles but it's still not even close to vanilla (which is good). Maybe some scenes with monsters, beasts, or beastmen would be a cool addition, but I won't fault a game for not having them.

Also, support Pixel Games, they make good shit.

To be honest you should know that this is not a management game. It's a visual novel that pretend to be one. There is no stakes on how you must manage money, stats, ecc.
Your girl will become slut no matter what, you will gain money no matter what and you just spent money on very few things, but as i said this is a visual novel, the matter are the visual and the novel.
The art is beautiful, as Pixel Games teach us this years, the story is there.
Overall it's a good looking game.

I don't usually review games but I'll make an exception for this one.

This is shaping up to be an amazing corruption/trainer game. The content so far is already worth the download. The art is great, the pacing is perfect, not too grindy but not too instantaneous either. Really looking forward to the future of this game.

If you those are your fetishes you will love it:
- Freeuse
- Training a Slut
- Changing clothes

Great game and amazing art. Also i didnt expect Kaisa to be there! Really good content, cant wait for next update

Excellent potential with already fantastic artstyle, lovely and hot girls, outfits mechanic for further sexiness and szenes with your girls.
Gameplay feels smoth, loading times not existing.
Core mechanic behind the resources to aquire new girls and develop the themepark is already shown even though not accessible yet.

Amazing game. Lots of content and gorgeous art.

There is still very little management, but the game is starting to build up to be something big. The customization of the girls and their rooms can bring a lot of spiciness to the game. I love the random events that occur in them from day to day. There is a little of grind, but nothing to worry about.
Anyway, loving it so far.

A little of the five stars is based more on potential than existing content, but what's here at the moment (0.3) is very promising. There's only two girls at the moment, but there's a good scaffold for future content and the writing so far has some good corruption and exhibitionism. The art is great as well. I'm looking forward to more.

Love the art style, was already a big fan of windsdeciple.
The new update finally brings some spice, can't wait for more!
The only problem for now is the amount of content.
Most of it is grind, which is fine in my opinion as it fits into the story, and it isn't too much as you get rewarded slowly but steadily.
But the few scenes already implemented are excellent, and the conversations even change at least between the first and second watch.

very nice game, d.va is love, d.va is life, i would like to see you including more content and more crossover girls like gwen tennyson, hinata hyuga, and the best ones from games and cartoons you could. if possible to include more content on the updates would be great too, this is very fast to finish the update contents from now.
thanks and keep the GJ
