Drunk Review: Corruption of Champions

Post by hyzmarca »

This game really deserves the sort of review that only Frank can give it, but I doubt he'll play it and I'm not sure that he'd remain sane through the experience so I'll bite the bullet and make the sacrifice for the greater good.

Corruption of Champions is a free single-player menu-driven pornographic text RPG that caters to transformation fetishists and is written in flash. It was created, originally as a personal wank project, by a fellow who calls himself Fenoxo, whom I have to admire for pioneering a form of marketing in which he pledges to work on game content for an hour for every 15 dollars donated to him. This arrangement has produced both a steady stream of revenue for Fenoxo and a steady stream of updates for players and is probably more profitable than flat sales or subscription fees would be.


Before I start the actual review, I must give a word of warning. This game contains combat and sex. Often, combat leads to sex. There's a lot of rape in this game.

I will not be at all explicit in my descriptions and will probably leave out a great deal in the same of good taste.

And that being said, lets begin.


Character Creation

When you click on the New Game button you get a short introductory paragraphic explaining that you come from the villiage of Ingham, which sends a Champion through a portal to the demon realm every year in order to kick ass and protect the village. This year, you've been chosen to be the Champion through some unexplained process. It then asks you to type in the name of your character.

I'll go with Arthur, King of the Britons.

Next it asks your sex, male or female. This selection influences your starting build, but honestly doesn't matter all that much. It's a transformation fetish game. This is followed by your starting build, skin color, and hair color, of which there is a wide variety of selections.

Once the cosmetics are out of the way, you're asked to choose which stat bonus you want. Your options are Strength, Smarts, Speed, Toughness, Libido, Touch, Big Cock, and Lots of Jizz if you're a male or Fertile if you're female.

Of these choices, the only ones that are remotely useful are the fertility bonuses. Semen Volume and Fertility can both be increased through rare perks, but these are expensive or difficult to obtain compared to plain stat bonuses. Indeed, most of the semen volume perks are one off and one of them is time limited.

The next screen explains that you had plans in life before you were rudely chosen by fate to save your village from extra-dimensional demons and asks what you had been doing with your life up until this point. A list of options is given, which provides minor bonuses to various things. Of them, only Fighting and Whoring are actually mechanically useful and Whoring is better because of how broken Tease damage can be at higher levels.

A hero's journey begins.

Once your character is created, in my case a Blond-haired average-built, male prostitute named Arthur, King of the Britons, you presented with a screen describing the journey to the portal, which is in a cave. You're accompanied by a village elder, who is probably there to make sure that you don't make a run for it.

Once through the portal you're immediately accosted by an imp and barely avoid being raped. This is the last time in the entire game that you will barely avoid being raped.

For the first time in the game you have a look at your stat bar. You have seven stats and three health bars. Strength, Toughness, Speed, and Intelligence are self-explanatory and range from 0 to 100. Currently, they should be around 15-20. Higher is better.
Libido contributes to your Lust gain from mental stimulaton and Sensitivity contributes to Lust gain from physical stimulation. Hypothetically, lower is better.

Corruption is a special stat that determines how close you are to being a full-blown rape demon. A Corruption stat of 100 is a bad end for everyone except you, for some reason. Somehow you can retain your soul even with max Corruption, so it mostly acts as a morality bar. Unlike most video game morality bars, your actions don't contribute much to it. Instead, mind-altering substances will be the most common source of Corruption. High Corruption merely unlocks really nasty and cruel options, if you're into that sort of thing, and allows you to deal with corrupt creatures more easily. On the other hand, high corruption alienates pure creatures, and some followers will leave you if you become too Corrupt.


HP is self explanatory. If your Hit Points reach zero you're knocked out. If you're knocked out you lose some money and you'll probably be raped. Higher is better

Fatigue is your MP. It ranges form 0 to 100 and raises when you do strenuous activities like casting spells or using special abilities. When it hits 100 you can't use any more spells or abilities. Fatigue is reduced by resting.

Lust determines how horny you are. It ranges from 0 to 100 increases steadily. If it reaches 100 you cannot do anything until you reduce it, usually by masturbating immediately. If your Lust reaches 100 in a fight you lose and will probably be raped.
Lower Lust should be better, but a certain amount of Lust is required to participate in sex scenes or to cast black magic. There are Perks which increase your minimum Lust while giving you resistance to Lust increases. These are absurdly good and they stack. With a minimum Lust of 50 and a Libido of 100, enemies only do 1 or 2 lus damage per tease attack, making it impossible for you to lose via lust-out while allowing you to use black or which magic as necessary and giving access to most sex scenes.


Doesn't a Champion need a sword or something? How about a pointy stick?


Your Champion starts off with literally nothing but the clothes on his back. The Elders sent him through the portal totally empty-handed, without even a pointy stick to defend himself with. It almost seems like some sort of scam to buy power and immortality with a steady supply of human sacrifices, or something.

The First thing you do is make camp. It isn't much of a camp right now because you have no supplies, but that will change.

The only remotely useful button at this point is the one called Explore.
So I click on that a few times and find a forest and a lake and a Goblin. The Goblin wants my sperm and attacks me in an attempt to rape me. I punch her into submission, barely. I have 98 points of Lust when the fight is over. At this point I have two different options for raping the Goblin. Doing this is morally questionable but mechanically wise, as it will set my Lust back to 0.

I can't say that the scenes aren't well-written. They are. But they do become boring after the 500th time you've fought a generic Goblin.

And that's it for this installment. Next time, Arthur, King of the Britons will explore the Forest and the Lake.

I guess this had to happen sooner or later. This game is kinda amusing, so I'm looking forward to the adventures/mishaps of Arthur, King of Britons.

I played this game after it got mentioned in the Book of Erotic Fantasy Thread. Definitely the most morally reprehensible game I've ever played, but a reasonable time-killer if you don't actually read anything. As a game, it's much better than the only other game in this genre I've tried [1]. I definitely agree with the descriptions being boring; the mad-libs-esque ways it fills in descriptions helps with the tedium, but it's still basically the same thing every time.

I tried having a character eat everything he came across. Within a few days he had become a six-breasted hermaphrodite slime girl with dog ears. The fact that several common foods can send female characters into heat didn't help.

Taking Whore was definitely a good choice. You might escape your first Sandtrap without being raped that way.

[1] The other game was called Wicked Ways. You played a witch that transformed people, and there was little to do other than spam Explore. Also, it had horrible and unavoidable random bad ends if you ever let the Lust Demons into the world.

Protip: Savescumming has been a go-to strategy for this game since before this game had a name.

While savescumming is useful in non-repeatable scenarios, it's utility pales in comparison to that of save editing. If you don't want random results from transformation items, it's much better to just use the save editor that's included on the page.

Exploring

So I hit the explore button several more times and Arthur, King of the Britons finds a desert, mountains, and plains. You always frind areas in the order that they were added to the game for some reason, this gives you a basic idea of the level that you need to be to explore them.

Arthur also discovers the laboratory of a goblin Alchemist, who sells potions, and is accounted by another wandering goblin who wants his sperm. This time I try using the Tease attack instead of fight.

Combat
In Combat, you have 9 options. Attack, Tease, Spells, Items, Physical Specials, Mental Specials, Wait, Fantasize, and Run.

Fantasize uses up a turn and increases your lust. It's only useful if you want to cast a black magic spell, or if you want to lose quickly. You don't want to cast a black magic spell, they suck, so it's really only useful if you want to lose quickly.

Both types of Specials work the same way, they cost fatigue and do something awesome. They're separated to make the menus smaller. Wait costs an action.

Attack does physical damage using your weapon. Tease does Lust damage using your body. Huge breasts (and other body parts) and fetish clothes increase Lust damage. Tease has five levels and gains XP with use.

My attempt to subdue he Goblin with Lust damage fails miserably because she throws some type of poison at me, which causes about 30 points of HP damage. I'm unable to move and get this gem. "The goblin saunters up to you, wiggling her hips with a needy, sexual sway." The following scene takes up several pages.

Later, Author teases an imp into submission, but is forced to male rape him to reduce his own lust. This game has a lot of gay rape, too, not just heterosexual.

The Creepy Merchant
A few more explores open up the Swamp and find Giacomo, the creepy merchant. Most of the items he sells are useful. A couple of them will leads to bad ends where you're a sex slave. Arthur, King of the Britons only has 15 Gems. Thus he buys the Dangerous Plants book and the Travelers Guide to Bees.
The Dangerous Plant book is absolutely necessary, as at this level it is impossible to beat the tentacle rape plants in the forest. The Book allows you to avoid them. The Bee guide is less useful, but inexpensive.

The most important things that Giacomo sells are drinks that increase toughness and intelligence. Arthur doesn't have enough money for those now, so we'll leave.

The Lake

At the Lake we encounter Rathazul. He's a rat-morph alchemist who charges high prices to purify your tainted potions. He can be recruited into your camp if you use his services three times. In this game, rat-morphs and mouse-morphs are basically good guys whose peaceful civilization shave been destroyed by demons. Currently, I can't pay his prices.

Next we find the Beautiful Sword in the lake. The sword is shining and majestic and is one of he most powerful weapons in the game if you have zero corruption. Unfortunately, it is impossible to maintain zero corruption, and the Beautiful Sword becomes weaker with every point that you have until you can't use it at all. Still, this early in the game it is awesome until we can afford something better.

Third is the discovery of the Ruined Town and the Boat. This opens up the Places menu.

The Ruined Town was a mouse-morph village until the demons attacked and destroyed it. If we go there we immediately encounter Amily, one of the few survivors. She is the first of many NPCs that can be added to your harem.

Since Arthur isn't corrupt, she immediately propositions him. You see, she desperately wants to repopulate her race and has been taking potions to increase her fertility but has no suitable male to mate with. Arthur is the first non-corrupt person she's met since the demons attacked. You can turn her down and she respects the decision, but it's faster just to .

If you're playing a female character you won't be propositioned immediately, but will have a chance to talk to her and get exposition which can lead to romance. After several encounters with female PCs she'll grow a penis and ask to do the impregnating.

Either way, repeated encounters with her build up her affection for the PC and after several children are produced she'll ask to move into the camp with you. The mouse-morph children grow rapidly due to the potions that she's taken and are able to fend for themsevles in a matter of days.

Arthur takes her up on her offer and begins the romance subplot, which unfortunately becomes tedious and repetitive rather quickly, as she runs out of unique things to say long before her trust in you reaches the necessary level.

BEES!

Arthur, King of the Britons soon tires of servicing Amily and makes his way to the Forest. The Forrest is home to many dangerous creatures. Luckily, he has bought books about them and can avoid encounters.
After narrowly escaping several encounters with giant rape plants, which are far too tough for a level 1 character to defeat, Arthur encounters some bees. While he could have avoided it thanks to the book, there's really no point in doing so. The encounter gives us the option to Fight or to Talk.
Bee Girls are peaceful and totally harmless. There's no need to fight them at all. When the talk option is used the Bee Girl helpsully explains that she's looking for some place to lay her eggs and is wondering if you could help. The correct answer is Yes. This gives you access to Pure Honey later on and is the only way to get it.

You'd think that letting a giant humanoid insect lay eggs in your intestines might be a little bit dangerous. It isn't. You don't even notice it for the most part and the eggs come out before they're hatched. I'm not even sure why they do this (the Bees are just infertile drones who are spreading eggs for their queen, so it seems that they could probably hold onto those eggs and incubate them themselves, but implantation into another species is apparently biologically necessary).

A few more trips to the forest leads to several fights with Goblins, another encounter with the Bee maiden (I got Pure Honey) and a few minor stt boosts.


The Desert


The Desert is a higher level area than the Forest is. It has good rewards but the monsters are powerful, so its a risk.
On Arthur's first trip he encounters a man named Marcus who has testicles so large that he needs a wheelbarrow to push them around in. Apparently, he made a deal with a Succubus and drank a lot of Succubus Delight. The Succubus, who is stuck following him around and doing his bidding, wants him to complete the transformation and become a full demon. He doesn't know what to do and asks the PC for advice.

In this game all Demons were once humans. Human magicians discovered a way to gain immortality by removing their souls, which crystallize into a useful magical material called lethicite once removed from the body. In setting the soul is pretty useless and there is no logical reason not to get rid of it, except that becoming a full demon makes it impossible to have children who aren't imps, which sucks because it means your entire species will soon die out and the world will be overrun by huge swarms of insatiable flying rapists.

It really doesn't matter which choice you pick, you get exactly the same reward either way. I picked human because giant testicles in a wheelbarrow are hilarious.

Next Arthur gets raped by a female Naga (Nagas have a constrict attack that's pretty powerful) and encounters the "Fountain of Endowment" which makes things bigger and has a chance of implanting a parasitic demon in you. Of course he drinks.

Next Arthur encounters a Sandtrap, which is an androgenous hermaphrodite that pretends to be a young woman trapped in quicksand to lure in unsuspecting heroes and rape them. Sandtraps are dangerous for high-level characters. Arthur is still level one. He'd get curbstomped if not for the fact that you can avoid the first encounter by refusing to be stupidly chivalrous.

After a lot of exploration (and several rapes) of the Desert Arthur the City of Tel'Adre. He also finds a Chest, which he takes to camp.

At this point Arthur has enough XP to level up, but I'm not going to do that just yet. Instead I'm going to grind Tease. This is because Tease levels up as you use it, a really stupid mechanic. Worse, the formula used to determine how often you need to use tease before it levels up is 10 + (player.level + 1) * 5 * (player.level + 1), which can be rewriten as (player.level + 1)^2 *5 +10. And you only get 1TXP for a successful tease, or 5TXP for a failure. That's pretty insane, since you can easily hit level 20 with enough grinding, in which case it would take 2215 teases to level tease. At character level 1 it only takes 30.

This game has a fairly devoted following (even outside of /d/ ) and features regular content expansion and a wiki. It even has a couple third-party software pieces for it - a save editor, a character viewer (currently on the second iteration and still very incomplete), and a Prison minigame involing a lot more sub/dom & bondage elements.

I don't think it has any direct references to related, more furry-oriented transformation games like Nimin though.

Someone actually wants more of this? Seriously?

I've kind of been puking my guts out for a week and have just recently hit the point where I can hold down solid foods again.

Wings
Anyway, after some level level grinding Arthur has a Tease skill of 5. He also drink a couple of incubus drafts, because having a huge cock increases tease damage, and gains a little bit of corruption (as well as several extra inches) because of this. He mitigates this by eating pure honey, which he has collected from the bee handmaidens after letting them lay eggs in his butt. This reduces his Corruption back to 0, and gives him large bee wings. It also gives him huge intelligence boosts.

Large Bee Wings let you fly, though there are few situations where this is actually useful. Mostly, it increases your chances to run from battle.

He also has over 300 XP under his belt, so he levels up twice.
At level up, he gets to choose one stat to add a +5 in. This doesn't matter in the long term. There are so many easier ways to manipulate stats. It is useful in the short term, though, and he adds +10 to his strength, bringing it to 25, which qualifies him for the Strong Back perk. He takes it and gains an extra inventory slot.
He saves his other Perk for later.

Now I focus on recruiting Amily. Amily's scenes are actually sort of romantic the first time around. Unfortunately, recruiting her requires going through multiple full pregnancies with her, and those scenes uickly become repetitive. Multiple visits to the ruined town also wield armor and weapons racks, which are mildly useful, as Arthur found a wizard's staff in the desert and needs some place to put it, also fights with a ghost girl.

It gets really annoying after a while and I decide to take a break from this, doing some exploring instead.

In the Woods, Arthur meets up with a four-armed plant girl, apparently new content, since she isn't on the wiki. She moos when you drink her ... umm... sap and apparently must consume semen in order to survive.

In Tel'Adre, the most interesting place is the bar.
Arthur's first trip into the bar sees him encounter Dominika, a black magician who needs to drink semen (I'm beginning to sense a pattern). Going back to her place leads to intellectually stimulating conversation, resulting in an increase in intelligence and learning a new black magic spell, Arthur's first spell.

Repeated dips into the Tel'Adre bar result in an encounter with Urta, the Captain of the Guard. Urta is a grey-furred humanoid fox commands the city guard and can generally kick all sorts of demon ass. Unfortunately, she has a little problem. That problem is a giant horse cock. Her self-consciousness about the apendage leads her to drink excessively, and occasionally have flings with Edryn, a centaur guardswoman who moonlights as a prostitute.

The initial encounter with Urta ends in her running off into the back alley to drunkenly masturbate into a pile of trash. You're given the option to follow her out, and before doing so are given the option to finish her extremely strong drink.
If you go out there drunk you will get raped, if not, you have a choice of how the encounter proceeds. Either way, it potentially leads to a long-term relationship with Urta, though, unlike Amily, she never joins your camp.

And I still havn't recruited Amily
This is getting fracking boring. after the first couple of litters, she should have been recruited. But no, I have to bang her over and over again. Fuck that.

To increase Arthur's fertility, I have Arthur chug Succubus Delights, three of which have been purified by the rat alchemist (allowing me to recruit him into my camp) and of which has been enhanced by Lumi the Alchemist.

Immediately upon drinking the enhanced Succubus Delight, I get this message in bold letters.
You have four balls.
Four of them, and basketball-sized.

In Tel'Adre, Arthur also encounters a horsed-cocked bunny hermaphrodite dancer named Loppe. (Horse-cocked hermaphrodites, I'm beginning to sense a pattern) and can have a fling with her.

More exploration leads us to the Farm. The Farm contains Kelt, who is an asshole, but will teach you how to use a bow. He will make you perform your archery naked and will constantly belittle you as you practice, but enduring this is the only way to increase your bow skill. Enduring it also increases a hidden stat called Kelt Submissiveness, and once that hits 100% you suffer the bad end of being turned into a centaur's love-slave. It's a balancing act to get your bow skill to 100 without being too submissive.

You can also turn the tables on him and humiliate him, if your corruption is high, but that makes it impossible to improve your archery.

And Amily still isn't in my camp
During my attempts to recruit Amily, I end up recruiting the Ghost-Girl Shouldra as the first member of Arthur's harem, completely by accident. She's a ghost, meaning that she can only interact with the physical world by possessing people. This probably constitutes really horribly creepy rape. Many of the possession sex scenes have the unwilling host completely panicking as their body moves against their will (and often deforms in impossible ways thanks to the ghost's magical influence) and it's really somewhat disturbing.

Thankfully, you cal also allow Shouldra to masturbate with your body, which is substantially less creepy, though it is sort of gross.

And now Arthur is level 5. I'll have him take the Tank and Fertility+ Perks.

Fertility+ increase the probability of impregnating someone or becoming pregnant, which is kind of important since I'm trying to recruit Amily and thus need to make her pregnant a lot. Tank, on the other hand, just gives you an extra 50 HP. It almost isn't worth the perk, but it's useful enough in a pinch.

Arthur also meets Marble the cow girl, and becomes addicted to her milk. This is a necessary step in recruiting her. She's actually mechanically useful.

I would say that this is the most rape-focused video-game thing I've read about today, but that would be a lie.

It is, however, pretty bad.

The world would probably be a more interesting place if more women had giant equine penises.

Yes. This will be a sober review for some time, unless strong anti-nausea medicine counts as being intoxicated.


Milk: It does a body good


With the introduction of Marble, Lactation fetish is placed front and center. Marbel the cowgirl has a problem. The darn milking machine is just too rough. She needs some help, the sort that only a human mouth can provide.

Marble is a lacta-bovine. Their deal is that they have highly addictive milk, and can only reproduce with males who are addicted to their milk. Most of them set themselves up with harems of adicted sex-slaves, but Marble is a nice girl and really doesn't understand what her milk is capable of. When she researches it and learns the truth, she's shocked.

In order to recruit her, you need to become addicted to her milk and then either stay addicted (which increases Corruption every day) or break the addiction. You also need to have a good relationship with her, which basically means not being a total jerk. Breaking the addiction basically requires you to refuse to drink her milk while going through withdrawal.

You also have the option to rape her on your first encounter. For once in this game, this is a terrible idea. Not only will she hate you forever if you try, she'll probably smash your skull in with her giant warhammer.

Recruiting Marble into your camp put her on your Lovers menu and allows her to collect items for you. Occasionally, she'll leave you a note saying that she has something for you, and you'll get either a set of leather armor, a vitality potion (permanently increases Strength and Toughness), or a bottle of LaBova (gives you giant lactating breasts and cow features).
The leather armor provides decent protection and extras can be pawned in Tel'Adre for 38 gems.

For those who really like milk, there are also the Sand Witches in the desert (yes, that is a horrible pun).
Sand Witches will ask permission to cast a spell on you. The first one turns you blonde, the second gives you breasts, the third makes you lactate.

If you refuse, the sand witch attacks you and casts the spell anyway if you lose. If you win, she'll probably drop a tattered scroll, which has the exact same effect as losing if you're foolish enough to use it. It's one of the few trap items in the game.

The Sand Witches have some sort of desert reclamation project going. They're irrigating the desert with milk collected from giant-boobed slaves. This apparently, sort of works. It's magic milk, I guess. It makes plants grow.

Repeatedly losing to sand witches is a bad end.

Sex and the City
Tel'Adre is a pretty fun place, and available at low levels. It is, however, extremely expensive.

Returning to the bar known as the Wet Bitch lets us continue to romance Urta. Simply striking up a conversation with her leads to two options, either going back to her place or giving her a blowjob right there under the table. If you come back immediately after satisfying her, you can actually talk to her about stuff, like her history, her family, her job as Captain of the town watch, and her giant horse penis.

There's also a bakery. Within the bakery you can but pasteries, which serve no purpose but to make you fat, and speak to the Waitress, Rubi. Rubi is a very feminine crossdressing young man. Striking up a conversation with him repeatedly eventually leads back to Rubi's apartment, which is is most certainly a bottom.

Finally, the Bakery is home of the pastery golem event, should you provide the baker with the correct ingredients you end up getting ravished by a giant pastry woman.


In addition, Tel'Adre has a gym. It costs 10 Gems per session to use the gym, or you can get a lifetime pass for 500 gems. The lifetime pass is much more economical.

The gym contains Cotton, who is a humanoid horse hermaphrodite. She had a giant horse cock, obviously. You can take a shower with her and do yoga.

It also contains Heckel the Hyena, also a hermaphrodite. Hekel is really butch, and prefers to be on top.

Then there is Lottie, who actually has a plot. She's a pig girl who is trying to lose weight. You can become her personal trainer and either act like a total jackass (destroying her self-esteem) or be a decent person. Depending on her self-esteem and fitness level, you can get different sex scenes.

Then there is Jasun, the shark-man at the pool. Jasun likes girls, and will only fuck you if you're wearing a swimsuit (which is a random drop from shark girls).

Finally, there is a woman who will give you a blowjob while you lift weights for some reason. That's probably extremely dangerous.

Grinding for perks, and I still Haven't recruited Amily.


Recruiting Amily is really frustrating because of the number of pregnancies she must go through, so I'm putting that on hold right now.
instead, Arthur is going into the Deepwoods, where will will encounter Akbal, Lord of Terrestrial Fire.

Akbal is a jackass demon who was turned into a big cat and trapped in the Deepwoods by the local goddess. He's very powerful, but that's not the point. The point is that Akbal is obsessed with having people submit to him. Submitting to him raises your corruption by a lot, 10-20 points, usually. But if you do it often enough to reach 80 corruption, he'll give you the power to breath "terrestrial fire" as well as the ability to invade the minds of your enemies (which comes online at 40 Corruption). This is the most powerful attack in the game, available at the very low cost of being sodomized by a giant cat-demon-god about 8 times. Of course, if you ever choose to fight him you won't be able to get his blessing. But once you have it you can drop your Corruption back down to 0 if you want.

It's highly abusable, really.


Getting Akbal's fire also bumps Arthur's Corruption up to the point where he can recruit Jojo. Jojo is a mouse monk. He teaches you how to meditate, which lowers Corruption, but can only be encountered if your Corruption is above 30.

Incidentally, the Beautiful Sword is now completely useless, and goes on the rack.

With the Fire Lord Perk from Akbal and Jojo in his camp, Arthur starts working down his Corruption, going from 80 to 40 fairly easily with a combination of meditation and walks on the Farm.

He also starts exploring the High Mountains, since the enemies there can be killed in two hits from Fire Breath. Multiple Encounters with Sophie the MILF Harpy follow, and she agrees to come back to camp. Sophie has some very long sex scenes, and is a MILF. Like all harpies, she has something called Lustick, an alchemical lipstick that lets you go all night long. With her in camp, Arthur can repeatedly expose himself to it, soon faining the Lustick Adapted perk. This gives him 10 points of permanent lust, but permanently increases his lust resistance. It is a very powerful perk.

This game doesn't just have rape.

It also has murder, masturbation, and just a little bit of consensual sex.

I'm pretty sure there are games that only have rape.

I still fail to see the fascination some people have with rape...

So. I havn't been back to this game in a while. I had very little desire to play it again. I just have to post an update because I went back to the website recently and noticed that the Donation Bar was at $170,000 USD for the month of May. Apparently, writing text based furry transformation porn games in your bedroom can be a lucrative business.


The Factory

Having tired of trying to recruit Amily, I decide to continue the actual main story.

A tree who is apparently a goddess told me that I have to shut down some factory to save her. So I'm on that.

The factory is located in the mountains and is fairly easy to find. It's also one of the places where you can get bad ends through combat loss.

It's actually pretty small, only nine rooms total. One of the first rooms has a succubus secretary and a coffee maker. She's easy to defeat, and raping her gives male characters a permenant demon penis for some reason.

Then there's an incubus mechanic. He isn't difficult to beat, either, but you can avoid combat with him by bribing him with a porn mag.

Finally there is the Omnibus, because hermaphrodite succubuses need a special name, apparantly. She controls the factory and you have to fight her. You can submit, of course, but that's a bad end. So is losing.

When you beat her you have the option of killing someone for the first time in the game. This isn't the last time you'll have a chance to do a cold-blooded execution, but it's a bit jarring in context. Up to this point combat has never actually been lethal. There's plenty of rape, sure, but everyone walks away alive.

But considering that she runs a factory that industrially milks transformed sex slaves in order to collect tainted fluids to posion the plane's resident goddess with, killing her might not be a bad idea.

If you don't kill you you can accept a bribe. Having her do anything to your body increases minimum lust while granting lust resistance. It isn't a bad trade-off, but it's probably better not to accept at this point in the game. The lust reduction is great, but at this point in the game the minimum lust can be crippling.


Blowing things up

fter defeating the Omnibus, you just have to shut the factory down. To do so you have a choice between valves and buttons. Early builds didn't explain what each did, leaving you to guess. I liked that. The current build explains to you that the buttons shut it down safely and the valve increase the pressure until the whole thing explodes. Arthur, King of the Britons, chose the latter.

Unfortunately, this spills all of the corrupted fluids that have been collected into the lake, corrupting the goddess. When Arthur returns to her island for his reward, he barely escapes a brutal tree-rape and steals her crystallized soul, which is released from the body when one becomes a full demon, for his trouble.

There are a couple of other dungeons on the main story line, which are mostly about the same. A few interesting rooms, but nothing particularly epic. For the most part dungeons are small things as one can expect from a game written by one dude in his spare time.

The most interesting dungeon content, I think, is a side-quest involving Helia, a Salamander girl whom you meet on the plains (which Arthur hasn't reach yet because its fairly high level). The dungeon is a fairly short tower where her father is being held prisoner. Like the factory, it's only a few rooms, but at least the plot is superior. There's raw emotion and moral ambiguity there. Sadly, most of that is still glossed over in favor of sex.

I don't think I'll write any more on this. I might, latter, but no guarentees.

I know that CoC is supposed to be blatantly and unapologetically pornographic but after the drubbing TvTropes and Exalted have taken in the past few days I don't think it was particularly wise to bump this thread.

Also, I'm surprised that you weren't aware that fleecing furries for money is even more lucrative than fleecing Scientologists. A few hours hanging around the Sonic the Hedgehog fandom probably would've enlightened you to their Godotish gullibility.

In short, your entire post is dismissive of not merely my intelligence, but my agency. And I don't mean agency as a player within one of your games, I mean my agency as a person. You do not want me to be informed when I make the fundamental decisions of deciding whether to join your game or buying your rules system.

I wouldn't necessarily call it gullibility, bit rather an extreme willingness, perhaps even eagerness, to spend money on thinks relevant to their interests.

Also I feel the need to point out that spending money on porn of people with fur and animal traits is really not any weirder inherently, than spending money on elf or halfling porn. (granted, there is a large percentage of the furry crowd into more objectionable stuff, but there are also furries who find the whole "cub" thing weird and disgusting, just like there are people into hentai who think shota/lolicon is weird and disgusting).
