Knockout Master

I have to admit my defeat on trying to get through this game... On paper it has a few faults(like being a billionaire that has no staff, no car and wants to go pro boxing) but it seemed like it might be descent. But the main issue i have with it, and i just can not get past it is: It is boring as hell, the story is just not there, conversations are boring and it just became such a slog to get through that i gave up after the restaurant opening despite it being the full complete game(s2 Round 14a). I just can not defend spending any more time on this as i find myself wanting to do just about anything else after a few minutes of playing this game.

This game has the potential of being great, yet it is hold back by its dialogues. The MC either talks like an incel or an enlightened philosopher or a silver-tongue lover. There are occasional grammar mistakes but they are forgiven. The sex scenes are fulfilling (pun intended!). The music is ok. The villains are mediocre; one you deal with but most likely reappear, and another that will enter your life in the most inconvenient time most likely. You should give it a spin purely for the aesthetics and the theme, but don't expect something profound, although it does have its moments. I'd give it 3.5/5

Boring game with cliché, one-dimensional "villains" who are more annoying than threatening. The LIs are as basic as they come, with no charm whatsoever. The ones introduced later are even worse, Violet and Scarlett, a lesbian/bi and a stripper. Wow, every man's dream. The story is dull and a chore to read, especially when it's interrupted by the " villains" stupid shenanigans. The relationship/romance is mediocre at best, and the renders are only "good," nothing great, in fact, they look a bit dated now, in 2026. All in all, only play if you want something to waste your time on while turning your brain off.

TL R: Typical Harem Simulator with a bland cliff hanger that foreshadows the sequel. Very bland until the ending where you can make a very big choice that makes the play through worth it. Spoiler: Full Review With Spoilers Overall the characters are all amazing, and the best thing about this AVN in my opinion is that routes and characters aren't forced upon you. I quickly cut Leah off and was glad to rarely see her again, she is still forced in dialogue but that's it. My favorite thing about this game was the fact that I got to kill Liam and Francis. I'm a player that loves to be the villain instead of the hero, it's much more fun in my opinion, so the fact that there was an option to kill him and even Francis was mind blowing to me, that's what saves this game from being a 1-2 star rating instead. I happily killed them both after letting Mike die. Honestly I'm not sure as I decided to not do a 2nd playthrough since there are so much text and choices, I said f*** it, but I let Mike die to see if it would happen. I let him get ran over, so I'm not sure if I could save him or not. This is a boring game until the end unless you're sole intentions are to goon, then this is great for you. Gooning wise, my favorite thing was the animations for Candy, my first time seeing realistic jiggle animations. Story wise, my favorite thing was killing Liam and Francis, Francis was a dumb a** , his dumb pride brought it on himself, honestly he probably went have went to jail as an accomplice for attempted murder if I had turned him in. Liam deserved death, his plot armor was too strong. I wouldn't be surprised if he somehow escaped prison when you turn him in, he was a lost cause with nothing to live in besides ruining other people's lives. My rating for this game is 3/5 stars obviously, but I'll be fair and give it a 6.5/10 rating, favorite character is a tie between Alice & Scarlett.

I can tell the pace is good and that the characters have their deserved recognition, slow, but there. Still. it is still too slow and practically counterproductive. First couple of women are 'see you and wanna fuck you', and then the rest are 'knowing you, thinking about it' and if there is enough budget, 'doing it at last'. It feels incomplete after 2 seasons.

This VN is so bland and uninspired that it doesn't really deserve any kind of constructive analysis. The main and only selling point is a male fantasy protagonist who's young, filthy rich, muscular, attractive, has huge penis and cums buckets, but despite all these traits, all the women fall for him only because he is just such a nice guy . There is very little conflict and the only one there is feels artificial . The boxing stuff is somewhere in the background and only serves to further boost MC's prestige. The women while might have their distinct personalities, worries and circumstances, but they feel like robots that are programmed to fall in love with MC, their dialogue is boring and relationships with them lacks any spice. I genuinely feel indifferent towards every LI in this visual novel. Also author doesn't just end current arc/season without any kind of closure with groundwork for a sequel, he literally just cuts in the middle of the conversation with closing credits . Who the fuck does that? Mediocre / 10.

I would give this an average, maybe a little lower than average. The dialog was wooden, as in no life or personality. Nobody talks like that, except maybe Stephen Hawking. The author should listen to how people speak, and say the lines of his dialog out loud to see if they sound natural or not. It's a writers trick for dialog that works. The Story was pretty good but it seems to be rushed. The inconsistencies are not dealt with, some things just feel random, the scenes are forced so it feels more like a seismograph than a smooth roller coaster ride. You know, choppy, hit and miss, stop and go. It kind of sputters, stutters and skips along. I started to think the entire plot of season 2 was how to have anal sex with Rose. And giving Violet that unlimited access to your bank, risky move, but then head injuries can make people do strange things. The characters are the best part aside from their dialog, they are unique and beautiful. Especially that Leah and the Dr MILF (in my opinion). I think Rose really needs to reconsider her hair, always looking like she slept on her right side, rolled out of bed and got on with her day without doing anything, even when she says she has to do her hair. Not sure what that even is, is it a hair style for real or just laziness? I love the pregnancy possibility, though the way it was announced out of nowhere without any foreshadowing that Alice has a growing belly and then nothing ever said about that again. Also disappointed she seemed to be sidelined almost completely in season 2. Come on man, she's a major part of the story, not a side chick to ignore. Maybe I'm alone in this fetish, I don't know, but pregnant women have such an allure it's hard to resist. There are some humorous moments, like taking those pills and cumming a gallon were hilarious, though a bit more back and forth between characters would help in those scenes. I think if the author slowed down a little bit, made the transitions a little smoother, let the story evolve a little more naturally, gave the dialog personality, and added in some more boxing scenes including the weigh ins and such it would be a great story. Mix in some boxing match highlights or montages to illustrate the hard work that goes into being the best. One last thing that bothered me was my amateur record being 3 KO's and 1 decision, but that app toward the end says 0 KO's and 4 decisions. Not a huge deal, just another inconsistency that needs correction. Maybe someone thought this was complete, but it needs a lot of work to really shine and have some kind of closure or an ending that leads into season 3 if that's really in the works already. 3 stars is generous, you'll have to put some thought and effort in to gain 1 or 2 more.

"Completed" my ass. First of all a warning, game is not completed in any way, shape or form and just stops in the middle of the narrative, also you barely get to do anything with 4 out 8 girls on the title screen (it sets up more potential interests but they don't come into play yet). Just so you know the state of the game at the moment. As overview states, continuation gonna be a sequel. So overall i was pleasantly surprised, it's mostly a slice of life story with decent writing and dialogues, pleasant slow burn pace, not infuriating protagonist (albeit with an infinite money cheat code), bad renders at the start but they geniunely become much better by the end, developer very clearly improved. Overall it's a solid harem read even in it's extremely unfinished, i would say barely started state. HOWEVER. I understand it might not entirely be fair, but it's my review and my feelings on the matter, so i have one big issue that kinda forced me to drop it from 4 stars to 3 (i still do recommend the game, it's a nice read). Game got f*ck all to do with boxing. In a game called Knockout Master, and overview stating "what will you do to become Knockout Master" i kind of expected a boxing theme to be prevalent or at least... present, you know. Instead boxing takes maybe 5% total of the narrative at most? None of your love interests are related to boxing as well. For example Violet is your coaches daughter, but it doesn't matter, could be anyone. Alice technically works with your coach but it also doesn't matter. Doctor Candy make sense, right? But you never see her for boxing checkups or anything, you bond over unrelated stuff. And all of it would be so easy to fix. And yet, despite it being presented as a boxing story, it's a pure slice of life that barely touches on anything boxing related. It felt like the game shot it's own identity in the foot for the sake of generic mansion life with other girls, and instead of being a unique and niche story with it's own identity it's just... the same as others. Decently made, but simply generic harem story you can find anywhere. As i said, i still recommend to read it, it's nice VN overall, but so far it's an unfinished generic slice of life harem that doesn't lean into it's unique narrative and strenghts at all.

V/N Not finished {No way near!! }!! Completed tag should be removed. Maybe 2-3 more Episodes would complete S2, When you look at the big picture here, I have serious doubts of this so-called Knockout Master Part2 ever happening. Its looking like a Afghan pullout.

(Review of Round 13) I'm afraid this game is a hit and miss at virtually everything. For starters, the script is a roller coaster: it's moderately good most of the time but every now and then it becomes absolutely stupid with characters speaking like robots or the MC speaking sometimes like his IQ suddenly was boosted to that of a fake genius, only to become a complete retard when you lest expect it. The conversation you have in your date with Candy is a good example of cheesy and absolutely out of place dialogue. A secondary result of the lacking script is the way characters sometimes feel superficial or outright superfluous to the story. In the beginning Violet looks very attractive and an interesting LI to have, but as the story progresses she sounds more and more like someone that is after your money. Rose is kinda forced on you, she's interesting because she's pure and innocent but in the end she becomes a dork totally under the control of her mother; by the time Scarlett "interviews" the MC I simply couldn't stand this crap anymore and dumped her. Congratulations to the developer for making himself and the players waste their time, you absolutely nailed it. I couldn't be bothered to try the other choices because I simply despised Scarlett too so even being a sucker for MILFs I don't give a shit. Again, great work there... Even the sweet Alice has her ups and downs. She gets pregnant and she's already showing it, you're supposedly absolutely in love with her but you sleep in separate beds and you leave for 2 days without even a good bye kiss to bang your MILF doctor in her cabin in the woods? I mean, sure, in the case of Candy you can decide NOT to turn her into a LI, but if you're writing an harem game you're supposed to avoid this kind of situation where it becomes obvious that you're blatantly behaving like a total jerk. The script is supposed to keep up the fantasy that you're making everyone happy, otherwise why bother playing the f'ing game?! Renders are mostly good but Robert's expression makes him look like he's stoned most of the time. The MC's eyes aren't exactly great either. Also, several times the character you're talking to is facing in a random direction instead of looking at you in the eye. This is especially infuriating with Alice, who is supposed to be the main LI. Also, all the "hot" models are virtually the same, changing only the face. Violet's abs don't fit her boobs either but who cares, right...? Animations are generally fluid and pretty acceptable, but the only ones worth mentioning for me are some sex scenes with Alice and Candy; the rest aren't bad, but they feel much more generic and uninteresting and not nearly as good. Other WTF details include how Candy works at the hospital dressed casually instead of wearing a proper doctor attire, the MC wearing his horrid t-shirt while dating Rose in a fancy restaurant, or the weird implementation of the phone, with a bunch of messages appearing so fast that you can't keep the pace, so you have to wait for the conversation to be over and then retrace to read them all from the beginning. Quite stupid if you ask me. I'd have liked to rate this 4 stars for the amount of content, a few good animations and some hot and intimate moments with Alice and Candy, but the irregular quality of the script and the less than satisfying character development is a deal breaker for me. Every game I have rated as 4 stars is *much* better than this anyway so I'm only being coherent here.

Game: Knockout Master English :............6/10 User Interface :.....5/10 User Experience :....6/10 Art :................8/10 Dialogue :...........4/10 Story :..............2/10 Opinion :............2/10................ Avg:..............4.71/10 [2.35/5] Way back when this initially came out I tried it. From what little I remember, not much has changed outside of adding that DUMB, USELESS feature that is a phone. Do you know what your poorly translated, boilerplate story, fedora wearing MC game doesn't need? A useless phone that is just a stand in for the pause menu. Either make the pause menu a phone, or better yet, don't bloat out the game with a phone that does nothing but say "You did the only thing you could do, good job!" Rant aside, yes, this is a barely passable translation, with milquetoast interactions, an MC that reads like a cringey nice guy "Just ditch the job and live in my mansion because boxers are so wealthy and you don't need to be an independent woman, just drop the act and fulfill my desires." Only make that sound a little more robotic because it should be google translated. This game also overuses the one ImageDissolve they have constantly. Use a 'fancy' dissolve to change scenes, not randomly during a conversation. It honestly feels like for every .1% of effort that a dev puts into UI, aesthetics, or animated sex, the story and dialogue get worse and worse. You cannot tell me that ANYONE has ever talked to another human being the way these robots interact with each other. And you can't tell me "Chill it's just porn" No. if it was just porn, just make sex animations. Don't waste people's time with a story that if it was a soup it'd be boiled ice. So lets get through the story. MC had rich parents and wants to box. The end. He has a FWB named Leah and wants more but likes how things are. She obviously wants a relationship because subtlety doesn't exist in this world, but also is a bottom bitch cuckquean that want MC to have other girls too. Every character you meet belts out their innermost personal desires and thoughts at that exact moment. My little "Nice guy" speech in the intro paragraph is an actual event that happens with Leah right away. And she counters it by saying she wants to be independent but wants sex. Do not get me started on the sex talk, it is laughable at best. It almost reads like terms and conditions it's so dry. After date night with Leah, MC meets Alice. A damsel in distress that as of that moment literally has no home, job, ID, or life of any kind and falls right into MC's lap. She's a blank slate and now her only existence is thanks to MC. It's a little weird. They have breakfast and when MC asks about her she says nothing about herself, just that she quit a job. And they have this so in-your-face psychology where MC has this monologue about how he loved his dad but they only spent time together watching boxing. So she chimes in with "Maybe that's why you wanna be a boxer!" And he says "Hmm never thought of it that way." Who COULDN'T come to that conclusion? No one was smart. I'm pretty sure a trained bird could make that assumption. And her retelling how she was attacked reads like a court statement. It's pretty fresh, she should be shook up and dishevelled. And the whole time MC just comments like "I would NEVER leave a woman to fend for themself. Your Ex is a coward and dumb and not as cool as me." Then before the fight, MC goes to sleep. I want to point out this is day two of the story and MC has gone to sleep at least three times. Time can just pass, MC doesn't need to sleep. And Alice, his now captive, wakes him up before the big fight interjecting with I'm assuming it's supposed to be alluring talk wanting to "connect" with him. And MC robotically blurts out he wants one special person, so she equally robotically says "That could be me *twiddles fingers*" If I rub my temples any harder I will poke a hole in my brain I'm so frustrated by this writing. I'm still in the first "round" and already have this nightmare of a paragraph, to whoever reads this, I'm sorry lol. Onto the first fight. Once again, every character you meet has to verbally solidify MC's importance to their lives. And not even just to him, each other as well. You meet his manager and they gush how perfect MC is almost completely instead of introducing themselves. If you need to be coddled this hard, I honestly feel bad for you. MC's first opponent even looks like he's in a weightclass or two below him. You know what would make this story even remotely better? Doing the opposite. Make MC have a tough fight, seeing as he's had his life handed to him on a silver platter. But no, two punches thrown. I'm honestly surprised MC got hit at all. Alice rewards him with breakfast for dinner. Partly Im assuming because they had like cooked chicken for breakfast. It's all backwards in this world. Then MC "Um Actually"s Alice when she says he's rich. Bro, we DO NOT care about how little you don't wanna be called rich. You're rich, shut up. And Alice doesn't want to be called a gold-digger to which he replies "I would NEVER" YOU DO NOT KNOW THIS WOMAN. She was robbed, coulda been staged, and nothing else. This simp/white knight attitude he has is laughable at best. Then, the issues in writing don't stop there, Alice's ex somehow shows up to MC's house and begs for her to come back. MC continues to buy her stuff(expensive cocktail dresses, not actual clothes) and they return home... To continue bashing the ex? To be fair, they were assaulted by two people in the middle of the night, and the ex was chased off. They could have had weapons or even more friends. But now, suddenly, he's this piece of shit that never did anything good? But MC is this altruistic philanthropist that could never harm a woman. Also he's rich and a great boxer(as long as the other guy is 50-100lbs lighter than him) Come on. Then at the bar, suddenly Liam is a drug dealing kingpin that beats his girlfriend and she's aware that he was gaslighting and manipulating her. You know, things that you'd need YEARS of therapy to discover. Nope. She knew all of that was happening to her and just let it happen. She also said "I was completely reliant on him" You know, exactly what's happening with MC? He is now her home, provider, job, and wallet. Leading to a week long time skip saying "MC and Alice hung out and got closer." YOU the READER still know nothing about this woman. You know more about Leah and she solely exists to be a sex scene and facilitate a harem. Nothing happens until MC gets attacked by Liam, the ex. SUDDENLY Alice is so distraught she can't speak. Not when she was about to be beaten and raped. But when MC is bonked on the head. He also got a long running jump before the assault. She'd know his face, being so traumatized, and seen him coming a mile away. But no, Liam teleports to hit MC. Then, as per usual, the game stagnates. Between the attack and end of "season 1" three things happen, Alice is or isn't pregnant based on your choice, you finally meet Violet, and Rose dumps MC. The rest is N O T H I N G. Some fights that are nothing more than 4 images going back and forth. MC gets dizzy due to a head injury and because Rocky had it, it's gotta be in this. Oh, and that useless phone mechanic eventually halts the game to read text messages that take over a minute to get through. Fun. If my review ends here, it means "season 2" is more of the same and I chose not to continue ranting. All I have to say about season 2 it's a slog to get through with all the hard pauses added. That and every time there IS a hard pause the cutscene is hilariously grainy and we wouldn't notice if we could skip them. No one needs a "Two Weeks Later" wipe with baby's first tree in blender taking up the screen. Or an establishing shot of a dumb coffee store. Also, it's been two weeks but Alice has a baby bump. Why? But really, nothing happens, outside another attack that puts Mike in a hospital. THAT should have been the end of season one for a much better cliffhanger. But no. And 'round 12' is SUBSTANTIALLY longer than all the rest, at least it felt that way. If that is to be justified, the writing HAS to get better. If I want to waste my time doing nothing, I'm better off watching paint dry. The English is almost there, I guess. The UI is partially customized, and the UX is cut down a bit from the dumb phone gimmick. The art is decent. Some grainy renders and stiff faces, but not bad. The dialogue is brain dead robotic, and it's written like some red-pilled fedora wearing women hater, I don't think anyone should hold it in high regard. And the story doesn't exist. Stalker ex that's suddenly a crime boss wants MC dead in S2 because S1 was so boring and empty. Woohoo. The Dev also discovered how to add shitty hard pauses in season 2 so you have to see the non-animations static on screen for however long each one is. But No one wants that. If it's a fully animated cutscene with dialogue and effects and effort, sure, I'd get that. But in-between frames and transitional movement? Stop. Whoever writes this needs to not. If this is a solo dev, fire yourself from writing and find someone else because this is just bad. If you enjoyed it, great, if you're reading this before you play, run, if you made this story, do better.

Wow. That was not good. I expected something more from a game that has managed to last a whole season but the lack of engaging characters and the underdeveloped dialogue has made me question what the plot points. Several times you are introduced to a good looking character only for them to open their mouths and completely break your immersion by quoting some meme or saying something completely ridiculous. After 4 years of development you would have expected something to actually progress with the plot but other than progressing the fetishes everyone of the characters seems to be circling the drain. The renders are fine but they need to be attached to something else because the overall product is disappointing for one of the oldest games on the site.

[Reviewed on Round 11] It's unfortunate that a game with such clear effort put into it just doesn't have the quality to justify playing it. Aside from the fairly good (if very samey) models and renders, everything else in Knockout Master is very substandard. The writing's overly descriptive in places yet scarce in others, the grammar is odd, the pacing is horrendous, the plot is uninspired, and every interaction is inauthentic and devoid of charm or eroticism. Put simply, it's not worth the download.

This game seems to have been written by a horny robot. The dialogue is oddly formal, but with the occasional goofy idiom thrown in. it's especially noticable when the MC transitions to "Gym Guy" and starts using gym slang seemingly scraped from listicles online. Real weird vibe all around. Disappointing in a very unique way, so i guess that's interesting, at least.

Based on S1, this game needs WORK! Pros I love the design/construct/mechanics of the game. Being able to strategically fight in a ren'py game piqued my interest. Cons Lack of Diversity (why am I still begging for diversity in 2023? do you not want people of all backgrounds to enjoy the game as well? Then just say that i guess ) Lack of Physical Attraction (Compared to other ren'py games, it's mid. I was trying to avoid sexual choices with alice which leads to my next con) Lack of Choice (Meaningful) (Quite honestly, I hate playing ren'py games without choices and if you are going to give us choices, make them meaningful. I hate that i couldn't avoid sexual interactions or avoid certain events period. For example, when i chose to ignore alice getting "hurt", I MEANT IT lmao I didn't want to continue to fight AND have her move in.)

I'm not really sure how I'd describe this story. Boring, perhaps? Uninspired? It's strange, because there's a clear level of effort and care that's put into this - which is commendable - and yet it seems to be unfortunately wasted. The biggest problem I had was that it was written like a telenovella. There's certainly drama, but the drama feels entirely inorganic, as do the characters. I can almost picture the over-acted crying and exaggerated hand movements. There's certainly nothing wrong with the models, and so long as you can handle the aforementioned writing inadequacies, you'll enjoy it. However for me, when I get to a point where I'm just skipping most of the dialogue to actually see if there's anything worth looking at...well, that's my sign to give up

Knockout Master [Round 10] [MooN] I just started playing this (again) because it's one of the few games that ticks all of my tags and it's not ntr but.... Dialogue is incredibly mediocre, tons of text with little of substance and relevancy. The choice seems to be "do you want to see content? yes/no" Rose. Her whole plotline, from A to B is f garbage. I was looking forward to the interactions with her (cause she looks cute), but now I hate her and her mother with all my heart. get lost Sometimes self-jerk is too much, I know it's power fantasy, but have some f decency. At times it feels like it was written by 12 years old. Even so... I'll still play it because, models MOSTLY look good and generic.

What a shame!! I'm still dropping a very generous 3 star rating on the title regardless, because I feel that the creator has the talent to put together a much stronger product/story, sadly, just not in this title. BUT, I'd recommend you pick a format and stick with it. Either go with the total harem angle, or the aspiring Rocky angle. not both! It's like trying to mix oil with water! I'm not quite certain what the motivation for turning a very promissing MC into a walking slut ready to hump anything, but it's not working, not for me at least! The time and technical know-how presented in this Novel shows and proves there is talent driving behind the curtains. Sadly it's the hormones running rampant that are preventing the creation a jewel of a VN. Maybe in a few years still?

Really agree with the review from narcizze. The Forced Rose path is so cringe. Like in my playthrough MC gets alice pregnant and then both decide to go forward with it and then next scene he is texting Rose for second date!!! like wtf??? The game has romance tag, so i thought we will be given a choice to take the relationship with Alice to like girlfriend, but no, knock up the girl and then start lusting over some 18 yr old??? The story has not something extraordinary, but was still playable before that.

Graphics are fairly nice but the story is not my cup of tea. I found myself just fast forwarding all the time. Also, this is not really a game but a lot of CG with very few choices, which are also not really meaningful afaik.
