Den of the Defiant

Ch.4 The story is kinda interesting (not very deep but every character has a background and the story goes to a specific point), but the art ruins it for me, and the animations do not help. Also, why are all the side chicks prettier than the main girls ? It's kinda sad.

I really enjoyed the romance. I'm not on this site for vanilla sex, nor do i enjoy Spoiler pregnancy , nor do i enjoy games without any sort of fetishes, but maaaaan, it felt so well-written, i had no idea how good it would be, sex scenes are well done, great visuals and very exciting despite not being fully my thing. The MC is a horndog and there's plenty of internal monologue. It goes further Spoiler they sometimes read each other's minds, as their bonds grow deeper, making it very fun . All in all, it's a very wholesome game with plenty of feelings. The characters feel like they are unique, each with their little quirks. Despite considering it a masterpiece, i think it could've been a bit better if more fetishes were implemented, even some fetishes could be soft/vanilla and could fit the story and their personality. It can be a bit sappy and flowery, but for me, it didn't detract anything for the story. If a degenerate hedonist like me could enjoy it greatly, i'm sure anyone who likes vanilla stuff would enjoy it even more. PS: i've read people saying that story isn't special, or that one of the characters turns a 180, i disagree. I feel like it's creative. Also, the backstory is basically about two different religious beliefs in that universe. Faith is very a powerful thing anywhere, so having that 180 is more natural than not.[/SPOILER][/SPOILER][/SPOILER][/SPOILER]

A solid harem game with superb models style. Dev prefers a more down-to-earth approach, so LIs resemble actual human beings, rather than plastic dolls. Gameplay-wise you can choose to pursue or skip LIs, additionally, sub/dom choices for MC are available. No BDSM to speak of, game is pretty vanilla in this regard. While the visuals are excellent, and the overall state of the game is good, 2 main issues for me personally were: 1 was expecting smth less tame from the game where the MC is actual demon 2 ratio of story/lewds is a bit scewed towards story, and the story is not that interesting. Overall a solid 4/5 game. If you like human-like models, harem, and impregnation, be sure to try it.

I was struggling to decide if I want to give this a 3 or 4-star rating. In general, I really like the setting and the ideas the dev brought in his game. The models are unique and good-looking and even the MC got his own unique model for a change, technically he even got 2. The game starts rather slow, but I think it was a good pace as it was something of a corruption themed game, even though this premise seems to quickly lose its meaning, the further you play. There are two ways to play it, more mdom and more fdom focused, I only played the mdom route, so I cannot say much about the other one, apart from one scene I saw due to the mod I used. I like that there is a small choice like that, but as mentioned, I will leave that out on my review as I can not speak for the other path. The sex scenes were... okay. Nothing special with a few back and forth animations. Now to the one glaring issue I had: a sudden skip in time/plot out of seemingly nowhere. Maybe it's not the case, but it really feels like the dev suddenly decided they want to quickly finish this project, for whatever reason. We went from a slow to mid pacing to suddenly skipping months to push the plot ahead, which left me rather confused because it seemed we went from "slow build up of relationships/"semi-corruption" to suddenly being in the middle or even towards the end of the whole story. Two of the main gripes I had with the skip: Spoiler: SPOILER From one second to the next, Evelynn suddenly realizes the problem with vivian, which seems to be an issue that went on for years before that. It is quite literally an 180, that could have been pulled off in a believable fashion, but it literally initiating the time skip, was jarring. Instead of her explaining, that all she did was to make sure Vivian leaves as soon as possible and then exploring the whole fucked up relationship that was going on there, we immediately went to "okay, time for war". The whole game basically became a preggo fetish game. Now, I do not have an issue with pregnancy in those games, especially if it is used for the plot, but it just coming so suddenly and without warning felt weird All in all I went with 4 stars, due to it still being a good game, even though the skip was jarring, as I recommend the dev finishing the game at least, in an ocean of abandoned projects on this website (if that skip was due to the reason I assume).

The game has one very strong side and one very weak side. I'll start with the strong one - the graphics. The renders look really good and authentic, the whole visual style has this slightly pale warm tone. It's simply pleasant to look at. The characters look very high-quality and have unique facial features and expressions that set them apart. The bodies are believable and proportional. Except for the main character. Maybe that was the idea, that demons have very long necks, but in the end he looks like a megamind with a smaller forehead. At the start of the game every girl comments on his muscles and good-looking body, but he just looks like a regular Joe. At some point he suddenly grows muscles, but whatever… The animations and poses are excellently done. I was especially impressed when I saw that clothing forms folds when switching poses. Including folds from a hand or other objects touching it. That must have been a ton of work. Now the worst part - the story and the writing. It’s not the worst thing I’ve ever read, but I couldn’t get any enjoyment out of it at all. Everything is so sweet, overly sweet. Like, deadly for diabetics sweet. Especially the main character. He’s supposed to be a demon, but he’s just a sweet guy who loves everyone and loves the world and loves you and he is just adorable. Why make him a demon and not, I don’t know, a Smurf? Not very clear. Demons here are only different in that they want to fuck all the time, and that’s it. The characters have very shallow traumas and problems. The issue is not the themes themselves but how they’re executed. Beth is insecure and shy? Well, just support her twice and tell her you want to fuck her - problem solved. Monica is rude and just a bitch? Well, she’s just a little ashamed of her behavior. Just forgive her and in the next moment she’ll be bouncing on your dick. You get the idea. Choices here have… questionable value. They are either a test of attention,, giving you a relationship bonus if you remember things that was told to you like 8 seconds ago. Or… “praise the character” and “don’t praise the character.” What’s the point of choices like these when the obviously correct option is to shower the character with compliments and sugary support? Only then you get the relationship bonus. The sex scenes are weak. Short and lacking detail. The girls just moan and constantly say “I love you.” No personality or spice. Honestly, the whole text is not very interesting, nor is the lore of the world. In summary, it’s just not a story-based game, despite being an VN. It’s pretty pictures with minimal exposition in text form. With this kind of review I could rate it even lower, but… it feels like the author wasn’t even trying to deliver an interesting story. It’s made simply to relax, nothing more. So just a three out of five.

Hello everyone. The game is amazing! The animations and characters are diverse, and they don't get boring. The story is interesting, and the character events are varied. It's very exciting. It's one of the best games, both in terms of animation and storyline.

I dont really know what to write, this game is just excellent. I haven't actually played much yet, but the world buildung that sometimes relally annoys me, is just so good, that I don't even care for the sex scenes. The fact that you actually get rewarded for reading the story and picking the right choices also enhances this. There are so many lovely little details in this game.

So, I was about to skip this. Reading the Dev notes, this sounded like one of those slightly incelish, male-power-fantasy harem games that plague this site like a... uhh... a plague. But it isn't like that. It does indeed miss any sort of "threat" and is firmly on the side of safe, happy male fantasy, but it's also really well written. It's fun without being agenda-driven or preachy. It's a harem game but with good story reason for doing it. It all comes together beautifully. Now, I do like to read stories/ play games that are a bit more raw and a bit more close to the depravities of real life, but this is good! Even my black, cold heart was warmed by its humor and the clear and structured story telling (and world building). One caveat: The sex scenes are VERY clearly written by a man. They are very... functional in an end-of-the-month accounting closing kind of way. But they'll do, I guess. What can I say, it's a good game. Very very few harem games are, so you should play this one.

Ch. 3 review. Fantastic world-building. The story and characters were interesting and realistic. I played the demon route, which is the male-dom path. Finally, I come across a male dom game where the mc is actually a good guy and not an abuser, sociopath, or a rapist. However, this game also fails to portray male dom play; instead, it is more vanilla play with spanking. I will say the sex scenes are still fantastic and hot. Which is why the game still gets a 5/5 as its still an amazing game as a vanilla one.

Pretty damn good game, it’s got some very likeable characters, good renders and an interesting and novel theme that definitely makes it an interesting and enjoyable experience. The only thing holding it back from 5 stars is the story has some pretty bad pacing issues; it’ll rapidly throw you into sex scenes seemingly at random with no buildup before long periods of downtime where chaste slice-of-life stuff happens, which while cute does make the game feel somewhat erratic.

Overall I like it and am looking forward to more. At its core, this is a corruption training game with paths for how to accomplish said training. The graphics range from good to outstanding. Same for the animations. My only real complaints are that some of the dominant path choices feel like you're getting punished for choosing them, and you're intended to try to impregnate all of the coven whether you're attracted to them or not. But again, most of it's really enjoyable.

Honestly a quite interesting game. Has a good cast of characters, with the story and models of them being quite nice, and has a good chunk of content at the moment as well. Looking forward to the future for this.

Well, That was So mush better than I thought it would be. Great varied amount of Models Nice sound track with more choices than you can wave a stick at! Zero grind It gets my two thumbs up I am eager for the next update

What a truly beautiful game, in a sea of low effort, low quality VNs comes one of those games that actually give you hope. A well written story with fleshed out characters, interesting lore and great artwork. This game has everything I look for in an AVN. Funnily enough my only real complaint is how fast we get to erotic scenes, I'd have been fine with having more buildup over the story. 10/10 game, just try it

great story line and pacing, really felt a build to a the lewd scenes. Only downside is that there isn't more! Still there's enough there to engross you in to the story and feel for the characters. Looking forward to more

Seems to be a sleeper hit of a game, definitely deserving of more attention. I like the design of the LIs, the scenes are hot, and the world-building and story is very interesting. I guess the LIs a being magically attracted/bonded to the MC detracts from the relationship building a bit but at least it makes sense in-game rather than them just throwing themselves at you for no reason. Looking forward to future updates.

I love this game, already one of my favorites! The art is amazing, the lore and the world-building are top notch and there's multiple paths on how to play the game that add great replayability! I especially like the very loving, soft femdom path. Usually femdom in most games tends to the more hardcore, violent side of things so I'm glad there's a much softer, playful and loving path here in this game!

These witches need to conjure MC some fucking balls. Besides the femdom overtones at the beginning, this game does worldbuilding and character progression pretty well partly because they're literally magically attracted to MC. The women are all attractive and the younger girls are very cute, topping it off with top notch animations with various body types. EDIT: I used to be a big fan but the forced time skip plus pregnancy really made both the story and scenes fall off a cliff for me

Reviewing as of CH.2. You should give it a try. The story seems a bit femaledom at the start but it's just part of the plot later Mc get to take actions. Story, lore and mystery seems good at the start, a completely fresh new one. But will have to wait and see how it goes on further as that will decide this VNs quality. As of now, graphics, animations are good. Pretty models too. Currently it deserves a 4 rating but to boost devs confidence I am rating it 5 but will definitely lower it if the story goes south, lol.

review for ch,2, boring, so fuckin boring fam. girls look kinda cute, mc does not, poor boi got fucked over in the looks department. maledom choices were soft, demon still a bit too simpy, i know it's cuz plot reasons. writing not bad, but boring.
