About The Successor
The Successor is an adult visual novel by DerVisionar, made in Ren'Py. You play a male protagonist living in Ryudo, a fictional Asian city that appears modest but hides a corrupt underworld. He has wealth, leisure, and women, yet resentment follows him and people close to him. As the story unfolds, he starts investigating the hidden past that draws this hostility. The game uses 3D CG and animated scenes, presenting a world shaped by choices and optional content.
The current build is Chapter V v0.5, an ongoing chapter release rather than a finished version, released on October 9, 2026. It runs on Windows, Linux, and Mac, with English text and no censorship. This update adds a save naming function and includes scenes that can change based on the route taken or appear as optional choices. The chapter contains about 30,500 new words, bringing the total to roughly 121,800, along with 2,259 new renders and 71 new animations.
Developer's description
At the first glance your life seems to be too perfect to be true. You have got everything you could dream of... Cars, women and a lot of free time. Not many know or remember where you came from, but for some reason you and those close to you are almost universally resented. First conclusion that comes to mind is jealousy, after all you are rich and people are envious in nature, right? Unfortunately for you it's not that simple, all the hate comes from shadows of the past, to whose MC has been kept oblivious and just now he can begin to uncover the truth. Spoiler The story takes place in fictional city of Ryudo, located in Asia. From the outside the city looks like any other insignificant provincial town, but in reality it's a den of depravity and perversion. It all worked like a magnet for many influential personas, who moved there and made the city their new home. The dark side is where the real business takes place. Prostitution, orgies, sharing, swinging, you name it. There is no taboo in Ryudo. It's not a netorare focused game. Check dev notes for more specifics.
