Ren'Py - Completed - Long Live the Princess [v1.0.1] [Belle]

This game is really well made and brought a verry new type of investigative gameplay that goes great with the visual novel style ive never seen before in a h game truly innovating the Jonra but i have a problem with how the game expects you to have multiple playthrough. it's not like the game has so meany branching paths you can't to everything in 1 playthrough its pretty linear. its not like what you learned from your previous playthroughs will allow you to progress further this time instead the game gatekeeps meany interactions with an experience section forcing you to do multiple playthroughs to get everything but not letting you keep your intel so you have to resolve all the mysteries! and the absolute mountain of dialogue would have been brutal if i actually read it but I did not and now I have to redo all the bullshit i did last time I Also my first playthrough was noticeably light on erotic content but doing it all over again would be completely ridiculous! though i do like you can acutely loose meany games are to pussy to tell you that youve failed. il try another playthrough with a walkthrough which i hope will be better

Pros

• A good big story emphasizing incest & polyamorous.
• A fairly good quality of image renders.
• A fairly good quality of animations.
• Play-ability, performance and grammar are all just OK no issue.
• Huge / lot of content.
• Lot of options.
• The environmental / background sound especially the forest / woodlands are well created.

Cons

• Lack of genuine or more of fictitious for sexuality.
• Lack of seductiveness in sexual approach.
• Very hard to play without the walkthrough.

The best game on this site. The characters are well-written. The renders are perfect . Belle is the best. The plot is gripping and engaging. It's so good I wish it was on Steam so the dev could profit from it.

I don't see how people can give this 5 stars any more, maybe back in 2017 4.1 or something, but now its dated and has to little of worth that kept up with the times.

-2
For me though its just the writing being completely horrendous and pointless like worse then a porn ad.

2/5 below average better off with anything unless you looking for that old school with old porn ad writing.

im gonna give it a 5 starts not because its the best game ever .. but because all & all its a good game plus i appreciate the hard work that is very noticeable .. lets talk about the good & bads :

goods :

a nice story , very well written & has many new creative ideas , map is easy to navigate for the missions & walk through is simple & direct , its not easy to get stuck in dead ends or become lost like most other sand box games , i didn't even need to check the walk through .. i just randomly drop some where & end up completing part of the story .. plus all story missions are written in the top of the screen near the map any way in case you need a hint ,,

sex contents are balanced between the amount of story & the sex scenes , and i didn't feel any Grinding in this game , Wherever you go, there's always something new waiting for you & a new conversation, most of the time thou ..


bads :
im not a big fan of first person view the whole game . im sorry ,, its just make me feel like im watching some kind of TV news , all the characters will be facing your screen as if they are news reporters .. even in the sex scenes i would like to see the full view of both characters , not to be an invisible man ,,

also the map has some weird way of going back in some points .. like if im inside a place in the second map & i wanted to go back outside .. it will take me all the way back to the first map again .. while i just need to go out in the second map .. i don't know why its programed that way , its kinda confusing & it gets annoying later on ,,

the girls .. they are beautiful but they are not that sexy .. most of them are skinny & sharing the same body type ..
also the amount of side characters is very poor ,, comparing to how long this game is ,, 10 girls only is not enough in a 2 weeks long game play .. it will cause a lot of repetitive sex with the same characters over & over again .. & for me , if i have sex with the same girl more than 2-3 time i will lose interest & it gets bored ,, you always looking forward for more girls & new faces ,, honestly there are some side girls in there .. like ( the crone - the bar tinder - the bJ female customer - the second Nun - the old lady behind library ) .. however , they are unfuckable .. for some bizarre reason .. instead , i went back to fuck the same those few girls again & again

assuming that all guys are turned on by watch lesbians & some softies fucking each other is totally False .. im not into it .. i don't mind watching it like once in a blue moon , but it gets old very quickly & boring ,, yet lesbian scenes are forced in this game & unavoidable , even thou it should be , like an option or a choice

i liked Belle when i saw her at first ,, i thought she are a tender & cute creature , but turns out later on that she is a nagging masculine bitch .. she talks like street boys & she insulted me way more than the Villains & she is obsessed with any thing that are sexual , even more than the MC him self , which is become a turn off later on ,, she is a fairy she suppose to be cute , not a crazy sex maniac , she also keeps on disrespecting the MC ,, calling me ( toy boy , side kick , sleep creep ) & some shit like that , comparing to my size , the MC could crush her with his feet in a second like a cockroach , i wish to know all that arrogance of her are based on what ? i wouldn't drew attention to my self if i were her , or her size

also im not in love with the ending .. it has like 4 endings or something yet every ending have a handicap that ruins all the experience & satisfaction .. no matter how good ending you will choose , you still gonna have to sacrifice something else important , just to make you life more miserable

any way it is what it is :

What to say that hasn't already been said?
This is an excellent game/novel/story by any definition/standard (for AVNs) and ratings less than 4* are matters of personal preferences, like older graphics, too much/not enough NTR, need more old guys having sex with young girls, story too long because one has a short attention span, etc, etc...

If it isn't already, this one should/will be a "classic". If there was a college course for AVNs, this one would be on the required reading list...
Well crafted, great script, intriguing story, great music, fun, drama, sex, variety...so many great things about this one.

While there are a lot of personal preferences I would like to have happened, done, added, etc., this one is just well executed overall with very few "flaws" or cons, but here are a couple:

- If you try this one without a walkthrough (especially w/ time limit active) you are a braver, smarter, more patient soul than I am... Without a walkthrough, this would be like getting dropped off in the wilderness and told good luck... Yeah, you have a "general" idea of the direction you need to go, but you'll more than likely end up going in circles, backtracking, get frustrated, quit, never get the "good ending", etc. Simply put, give it a try without a walkthrough if you dare. But before giving up, just look at the walkthrough...

- There are a handful of times in this story, particularly at the end/climax of the story, where the MC's thoughts and exposition drag on to the point where it triggered my Holy Grail "get on with it"... Those "get on with it" scenes/moments really don't take that long, but the MC's thought commentary was delaying the "action" and was restating the obvious or "saying" stuff that had already been said/thought/expressed, etc. That's the only "negative" criticism I have for this one.

If you've had this one book marked for months, like I did, stop passing it up and "get on with it"; you're missing a great one...

I didn't expect such a great game going in.

Everything in it is high quality, the renders, the musics used, good writing.

I found myself totally immersed in the mini-stories of the girls, the overarching plot with the princess was dope too.

Easy recommend.

Not a fan of the MC. Too much of a pervert for my tastes. Also don't like that you can't turn off the incest aspects. It's not like it adds anything to the story, no reason why there can't be a toggle for it.

I mostly just lurk but this game deserves a review

An actual thought-out narrative is always a breath of fresh air in this genre.

The mechanics are organically intertwined with the plot.

Worldbuilding with lore and backstories that present itself naturally.

The characters are well-developed and have distinct personalities, rather than feeling like mere dolls. Player choices, including very subtle ones, influence not only their development but also their interactions with the setting and other characters.

The game offers a high degree of player freedom, only timely forcing you in one or another direction, and even then it's done via the supporting cast.

Combined with the OST, it all makes for a very immersive time.

The visuals are very solid.

It's very replayable, I went through it 3 times to see everything I wanted and then 2 so I could get all achievements!

Even if the adult scenes were removed, not many adjustments would be necessary for this to still be a banger VN, can't recommend it enough

5/5

Interesting story, some memorable characters, alright scenes.

The story is probably the greatest part of the game, and the clue system works perfectly for piecing together it.

Some of the characters are compelling and feel very natural, others not very much so. Though that might only be my preferences.

The scenes are serviceable but definitely not the strong points.

What really drew me out of it is the time limit. Even though it tells you that it is designed to let you, the player, have time to mess around and try different things to get things moving, you certainly do not have that luxury.
Characters have a set schedule, so you do not always have access to them. Several things in the game require you to waste time/days to progress in certain areas.
In my case I got to the last week of the story and realized there was literally no way for me to finish up everything that was left, since the things I had to do takes an entire day and then leaves your character de-buffed for several days after. At that point I lost all interest in the game, the story, even the scenes.

Wish I played without the time limit, as my bias is that I do not care for NG+, especially in VNs, and now will leave the game unfinished.

In summary:
Story 4/5, dialogue 3/5, scenes 3/5
Play without the time limit if you want to finish everything without replaying.

I was completely drawn to the story in the game. this game has good models, graphics, and a lot of text to immerse me in the game. Due to the design of the maker, you have to spend a lot of time experiencing all the plots. But it's fun, and only thing to be careful about is to take care to save your save.

If you haven't played this before, you really really should.

Really enjoyable to play, interesting story/characters, well written, good renders. Choices that actually matter without it feeling arbitrary or stupid like they do in so many other VNs.

Five out of Five. The game has a range of events, locations, characters, and progression as well as many multiple endings that make it a great re-playable story. Smooth transitions, good story, multiple plot devices and twists, multiple LI's, multiple ways to play the game, and a satisfying set of endings based on how you want to finish off the adventure. Graphics and character designs are top notch. The interactions with each character are unique and tinged with enough humor and drama in equal parts. A pleasant surprise and enough of a game by itself even without porn added in. It is a fantasy adventure with porn liberally tossed into the mix as part of the actual story (as opposed to games with random porn scenes thrown in just because). The magic system and way it was used was well done and different than most other mind control style games.

This is one of the greats. The models are hot and the characters backstories are investing. The story has great moments that flow towards a satisfying conclusion. The game mechanics aren't complicated but also requires some thinking if you want to progress. The only negative is that the scenes can be short and don't have a lot of variety. But overall for an hgame it's solid and should be recommended.

It's pretty solid—I'd give it a good 4 out of 5. The rendering is decent, and I'm digging the detective aspect. The story's a bit cliché, but the characters really pull you in. They feel surprisingly real. Overall, it's a fun game that's definitely worth a playthrough.

A game worthy of being played, that's for sure. The girls are interesting, no weird fetishes, and the plot is pretty good for the genre. The epilogue could've been better, as it's just a couple phrases about each girl's fate and even that is bugged, as it doesn't show pregnancy slides for a few girls when they're chosen in the end. The harem ending is even worse, as it doesn't take pregnancy into account at all, which is sad. Anyway, it's one of the good games and has admirable quality, as well as enough content to take up to three days of play, depending on if you're going to achieve the best ending in your first game or new game plus.

Surprisingly very good.

Story is good 4.2/5. The girls are attractive and intriguing, Evelyn is my favorite. Belle and uncle Aldred are a little annoying at first. I like the background that is in Medieval era and the design of the map, reminded me of The Witcher.

TLDR one of the best adult game out there.

The theme isn’t necessarily for everyone and the gameplay can be a bit clunky at times, but I’d be lying if I said I didn’t have fun playing this! I'm kinda curious to see how Supermodel turns out now.

[SHORT REVIEW]

Just completed four playthroughs and suffice to say, I am satisfied with this game. The worldbuilding and stories of this game are like a mix between Kingdom Come: Deliverance and Dungeons & Dragons. So if you know both of them, you'll know how this game looks like. Gameplay wise? pretty similar with Summertime Saga. Do I feel like a need to complaint about it? not at all. In fact, I'm enjoying this type of gameplay.

I was afraid to try this game because it was made back in 2017, but it turns out the dev recently just fleshed out some of the scenes and animations. Not a lot of seasoned AVN devs from years ago had a will to do something like this. This game has a lot of different endings, so you won't get bored by a single playthrough. My first one was shit, my second one was alright but still shit, my next playthroughs were much better. I think I'm going to stop playing for a moment but I will definitely continue the game in the future.

For a game that was released years ago, this one deserved 5 out of 5.

Long Live the Princess [v1.0.1] [Belle]
A game certainly well made but very boring.
Despite the rating, I recommend the game, it bored me, but it's not bad, you can definitely enjoy it.
I recommend playing it without the time limit (I can hardly appreciate the time limit, in this game it's a no for me).

Ok story, but none of the characters left a lasting impression on me, they are forgotten in a few days.
So-so gameplay, is nice to have to investigate and present evidence, but it doesn't always work well in the game, but overall good gameplay.

Apart from the unrememberable characters, I honestly found the game very boring, also for this reason I admit that I skipped a bit of dialogue (despite the story being interesting, even just the fact of having so many dialogues with the awareness of having to redo a new game+ makes everything less interesting and uninvolving, and then finishing the first run and not wanting to do the new game+).
