Aracelis

Aracelis could’ve been a masterpiece, but if I had to describe it within a sentence, it would be “Nothing Ever Happens—the game”. The VN is plagued by long development periods, short updates, utter radio silence from the developer, and it continues to blueball players even after three years of its existence. The FMC, Annelise, is gorgeous and one of the best-looking DAZ3D models I’ve seen on F95zone. I had high hopes when I first looked at the front page and description, as it felt exactly my kind of game with a school setting and blackmailing themes, but as you start playing the game, the more you read the dialogue and savor the renders, you’ll soon realize that nothing eye-catching happens—not sexually nor storywise. Aracelis is full of wordcelling and not so much when it comes to H-scenes. It’s like the developer is afraid of imagining sex and fears intimacy in real life, so he can’t actually flesh them out, because they end within a few renders with bad camera angles, but meanwhile, he’ll create 50 different renders for a random sideplot or just a dialogue sequence between two people. I’ll never understand why he puts more effort into filler rather than the H-scenes. Mild spoiler: The prime example of bad writing is the dance with Mateo and Annelise. The dev adds a nice build-up for a hot and steamy makeout scene, which could’ve been a masterpiece, but what happens? Nothing! Annelise gets barely touched before she gets offended and stops the H-scene from escalating. The crappy in-game explanation offered is that she is not a cheap whore who’s ready to fuck in an alleyway—So why did she lead him on? Why did she kiss him or allow him to grope her? Why did she follow him into the alleyway? What exactly did she expect to happen? There is no proper blackmail, no corruption, no sexual harassment, the school setting is a joke because it's never brought up, and there’s barely any ass or breast groping to really enjoy it as fap material. Everything is consensual, I mean everything , and you’ll feel like an HR person is in the room with you. It’s inoffensive, sterilized, sanitized, and plain vanilla —If you like your games this way, props to you, but honestly, the plot had a lot of potential to be a dark, mature, and erotic, because Annelise isn’t a virgin. In its current state, the game is extremely short and has been in development since 2023. While the dev might try to sell the idea of “slowburn”, the real slowburn is the development velocity at a snail’s pace. There is absolutely zero chance this game will ever be completed; either it’ll be abandoned due to burnout, or it’ll continue to drip-feed for years to come. Overall, if you look at the pretty renders on the front, know that all that glitters is not gold. This game looks very attractive on the outside, but it’s a pile of turd wrapped in gold wrapping paper. I can recommend giving it a try, but I would be very cautious about supporting the developer or expecting the game to actually be completed… Because that's never going to happen.

This game is cute and well-made, but you need some warnings. 1) This game is not fast-fuck... yeap. You can cry but that's exactly what it isn't. 2) Female protagonist is not fuckmeat... yeap. Once again, you can cry just like 3 angry reviewers below but that's exactly what she isn't. Take it as quiet and unhurried lifelines story. Beautiful FMC, good music, well-written. Something for quiet evening not for fast fap. 3) "Beauty in the world of beasts" Male characters are really freaking ugly. if you pay attention to the plot, you will see that these are not bugs or mistakes in working with DAZ. Looks like this is the author's position. There is a literary technique where the soul of a character is reflected in his appearance. Inside the plot, the characters behave naturally, as if everything is in perfect order, but the reader sees freaks and monsters. Once again, you can take it or don't but this is it. Well, it mostly emotional than sexy, mostly for empathy than for fap. Enjoy ...or leave. Your choice.

An FMC game with an atractive lead and a bunch of creepy dudes touching her. Will she give into forbidden desires or remain a decent woman? Well the answer is neither. You either let dudes touch but never fuck her or you she can rebuff dudes....who never actually get to the point of fucking anyways AND all of the dudes are trying and not one gets any action unless you count the fat dude when shes drunk forcing a handy from her.....because actual rape would be the step too far. I get it....we're going for a slow burn here, but its failing. Unless the intended audience are female fans of trash erotic novels I dont know what this direction is. Honestly at two years in the slow burn seems like its never gonna end. If that works for you then you're gonna love this.

One star for the beautiful MC and some of the girls. Thats it. The game pretends to be a choice-driven novel, but it is just an ugly bastard corruption slob with no agency over anything but actual sex. Every single "man" in this game is an ugly rapist or overdosed womanizer. Or both... The girls look good, but most of them are already fucking their own uglies and/or are just there ro make the MC jealous. The MC is repeatedly forced into jarring situations and makes decisions devoid on player choices and braincells. The crime plot is so dumb it hurts. Even if you manage to avoid the rapists, even if you get to a date with a girl, it is ruined by another one and you get the choice of going with them or ending the date... The sex scene you fought so hard is buggy, way to short and end abruptly. Of course with a fitting NTR-scene next morning. If you're into a beautiful MC getting raped and molested by the ugliest things possible, this is another one for the collection. Sadly, it fails in every other aspect.

A great start to this new AVN. I was happy to see that a lesbian path was open, and I jumped right in. I really like seeing that the beautiful Heroine has the ability to take action and make active decisions to succeed in her fraught journey! She can therefore be a strong person who takes charge of her life, can say no to her detractors, and try to find a more glorious and honorable path to success (something much more rewarding and happier!), and not just be a puppet handed over to abusers who would abuse her! I sincerely hope this path continues in this direction. What I also liked is that even in the lesbian path, it can be difficult to find the right person; this is smart in an AVN whose goal is to create a real romantic relationship! So I'm waiting for the sequel and praying that this path will be fleshed out and not just be a semblance of a path devoid of content. The other paths interest me less because, in my opinion, we're dealing with a classic path of corruption where the protagonist becomes a mere object in the hands of ugly villains! I'm really not looking for that, and there are so many AVNs on this theme that I don't see the point of continuing down this kind of path.

It's a pretty good start, but I seriously considered just giving it 3 stars. I appreciate the work the dev put into making some original characters as well as some locations I have not seen before. Regardless, there are some challenges for me. For one, it is just another corruption game. Ugly men and the MC put into silly situations. I think part of the problem is I just might have played too many of these as they all seem the same anymore and this one is no different. I will say, one of the things I like is the MC is smart and you can play her like a real woman who knows how to stick up for herself and how to fend off the morons of the world. I like that she can put the men in their place if she wants, but if she lets things happen, that's where it falls off the rails for me and slides back into the old corruption formula of being a helpless slut. There is also a nice balance between male and female partners so I think you could probably play the MC as a lesbian and potentially skip the corruption parts, but we will see how it plays out. And that is another thing I like, as a player, you can easily opt in or out of any of the scenes you want. This may change, but for now, I think it's great. The dialogue needs some work as English does not seem to be the devs first language. This is okay, but I found some scenes were bad enough to pull me out of the story and I had to think about what they were trying to say. Again, no problem, but if the dev is looking to make this an excellent game, this will need to be addressed. Anyway, while there are a lot of original things going on, at it's base it is a familiar corruption game, but it has some potential to be really excellent. I just hope the dev continues the story the way it is and does not conform to the crowd and turn the MC into a slut caught in a fuckfest.

This looks a great game for female corrupton lovers. The MC model is hot and not some deformed bimbo monster. Side girls looks good too. The dudes have more variety, from good looking to ugly bastards. Story wise is too soon to say much but the game is not a slow burn blueballer. Just two updates and things are moving forward, no penetration so far but plenty of teasing and other sexual situations. Can't wait to see more of Aracelis adventures.
