44 hours in the game and i just reached the end of the content, just before the « big event ». The game is really good and i really like how pregnancy and children are. It's fun because after reaching the end of the content, i spend much time with all differents event across the map and it looked like i spent time with my families before the fight.
There are some things I need to asked just to be sure I didn't miss anything.
Lady of the Lake : Is it possible to help her in the current build ? I possess the Marina but I didn't found anything.
Is there any «hidden» quests in Demesnes ? Therer are some things that could lead to more but ... nothing (Luna's people, Host servers in Roxy's, etc)
Is there anything to do with the Counsil Caretaker ?
Anyway, good job for the work and good luck for the next ! I'll follow you with attention ! o/
The answer to pretty much all of those is "Not in the game yet"
Arc seems to like leaving things open, but I guess having big bold letters saying "NO MORE CONTENT IN THIS VERSION" everywhere you go would be a bit offputting, unless it's main story stuff or something.
I'm glad you're enjoying the game, despite the cliffhangers, and I hope you continue to enjoy everything I have planned for the future of CK (and all subsequent games)!
Clipping (or floating) is unfortunately an unavoidable issue when it comes to animating 3D models. There are AAA games on the market that haven't managed to do away with it entirely, so as a solo dev I just do the best I can ;)
I've been meaning to ask but what does the gwen yandere mode do? I encountered that in some cases whenever I leave, she stops me and weirdly sniffs at me like some kind of a stalker. After that nothing weird I encountered related to her ever happens. Am I doing wrong or there is some specific thing that I need to do first?
To be quite honest this game is pretty good and pretty captivating to watch sometimes. I also like how the dev is a goddamn chad for giving us a great game that is essentially free. Just some of my thoughts for the game lol.
She goes through "Yandere mode" changes, getting increasingly more crazily-obsessed with you the longer you ignore her for. Starts with sniffing, moves on to text messages and then... well, I won't spoil the surprise ;)
Sorry for replying late but thanks for all your hardwork man I appreciate it. Hope that not only you create hot content for us that appreciates your work but also create captivating content that is not neccessarily pornographic.
I've been playing for a few days now (I took a long break l, maybe 3 months or more)
And I noticed that my game is running extremely slow, like text and animations taking a long time, especially when rewinding and saving(takes up to 10 seconds).
I have a powerfull phone(I think)
8gb's of ram
And a snapdragon 732g
I also tried pc version on joyplay but it's slow on there too.
Plenty of storage left too.
So I don't really know where the problem is coming from.
I haven't had this the first few times I played.
Thanks for reading, I'm loving the game more with every second ❤️♥️
Hmm, that's strange... is it only happening for CK, or do you have the same problem with other Ren'py games?
Unfortunately, Android and Ren'py sometimes don't play well together. Some people have had luck adjusting their battery settings, some people report success after powering down their phone and booting it back up. Perhaps one of those solutions will work for you?
Sorry I can't be more help! It's an issue with Ren'py and Android's interaction and I can't do anything about either of those kits :(
Hey guys, i've been stucked on jessica's storyline, problably skipped what to do and dont understand the hint, It says "i should keep investiganting, and learn more about the organization", sry for the inconvinience and for the broken english XD
Follow the "Organisation" lead (the envelope icon in the top-right of your screen shows all your leads). If you don't have an Organisation lead then you haven't yet triggered the Gramps questline, which you need to do by going to the Manor's garden and then following all the hints until you unlock the lake in the mountains.
Been playing for over a week now and this game is kinda addictive in the sense that the story is just so good and the characters are so amazing. Every one of them is so unique and I have a tough time thinking who is best girl (But maybe it's pixie, call me basic but I think maybe it is) Good humor, Good Drama but I'm sorry the Hitting sound effects in some dramatic scenes are some you'd hear in like YouTube videos and It is so hilarious It really breaks the dramatic tension and not in a good way. This is what I'm looking for in a RPG VN, Well done to the team
No team, just me I'm afraid :) I'm glad you're enjoying the game, though! I agree that the sound effects could be better, but I'm working with a very small sample of free sfx so unfortunately my choices are limited, haha. Maybe I'll be able to find some better ones and substitute them later on!
Sally appears in the college sub-story. Which is unlocked after progressing Madison's story and buying the college from her.
When you reach authority level 5 in the college (last level of authority) you will be able to visit Sally's company in the map and ask her to sell it to you.
Hey man, loving your game. I honestly didn't expect to be hooked to it as I am now. I'm looking forward to each update now. I was wondering why the gallery is missing some H scenes that are actually in game tho? Anyways keep up the good work !
Hey, thank you very much! I'm glad you're enjoying the game :)
As for your question, well, what Cursed said. Eventually even the repeatable scenes will be in the Gallery (and I've added a couple already) but probably not until the game is in a finished state and I'm in the "polish/passthrough" stage.
Arc the dev i hope you're reading this i just wanna say I love this game the story is so wonderful, the characters are so lovely it's really immersive in a way because you really feel connected to all the characters.
And also my favourite character of all is Pixie she's just so energetic and enthusiastic on whatever scenario it might be and i love how she appears in your photos and I'm looking forward to seeing more photos of you with Pixie.
Keep doing what you're doing man, even though i don't have money to support you , i just love this game so much.
Aww, thank you! I really appreciate that, and I'm glad you're enjoying the game! I hope you continue to enjoy everything I have planned for the future as well! :)
More "Pixie Adventure" photosets will definitely happen! It's a lot of work, but I enjoyed doing them,
To be fair it's not like Kana and Pixie have had much of a formal education before you bring them to the college, and Ami seems verry eager to learn.
But you do have a point, I imagine Kana and Pixie having the educational level of a 10-12 years old, while Ami must be around 5 or 6 y/o learning to write and read.
Still It would be really cool if in the future, helping Ami with her education (even if it's not in the college) was an option, cuz she's such a precious little thing and I adore her. But the game is so f-ing good and Arc works so hard doing weekly updates that I would feel bad asking for more lol
No, game doesn't have skips, not sure if Arc wants to add them either.
If you're on the same machine and didn't lose your saves, check the A, page in the saves, that's for autosaves and the game autosaves every time you go to sleep.
If not, well, your only option would be to get someone else's savefile.
Sometimes android is weird, it may ask up to 4 or 5 GB of free space to install a 1GB apk.
But I would suggest downloading Split APK Installer from the playstore or wherever you get your apps from. And using that to install the game, if it fails it wil at least tell you why, but for some people it works right away.
Go into 'Apps' on your Android and in filter options turn on 'Show system apps', then look for 'Package installer/Application installer', the one that has a suspiciously large storage usage is the thing in which you have to go into, click 'Storage' and then 'Clear data'.
For some reason that thing fully duplicates the files you tried to install if the installation failed and it keeps duplicates of some data from things you installed over time. It's safe to clear it.
Also make sure you delete installation packages of games you installed already. Otherwise you have double the storage use.
And clearing cache of Chrome is advised if you're using it.
On Android? Yes, download the APK, don't uninstall just update.
On computer, if you're using the itch.io launcher you can download the game with it and when you update you will only have to download the new stuff and not the entire thing.
oh maybe in a future update the player can use that potion that mutes choles alt text on hana and ard, and depending on who drinks it stays active for a 7 day period and can let the player focus on just one of them at a time so they could each have their own mini stories that need the potion to be do able , also unrelated but hope therest of east wing gets more stuff to do aswell
When you get access to the nexus and visit the girls in those locations you will make contact with the Artifact.
And you need that because the Artifact explains how the pregnancy works in this game which allows you to start impregnating girls. Things break if you do them out of order, and the girls 4th heart event would override that.
Can someone help me find this game, it starts with some sort of battle I think the protagonist lost the war or something and then some years later a succubus or something revived him.
I don't tend to make reviews... but my god when I say this is, by far, one of the best h-games I have ever played.
Where to even begin? Story is absolutely excellent. Its not just, "meet girls, get them to like you, and fuck them." No it's so much more. Between the different "numbers" the eldritch, the org, the Fey (mostly morgana and the council) there is just so much lore to keep track of. And its it's amazing.
Gameplay is, and mind the bluntness, standard. It's a visual novel, it does what a visual novel does, and it's good. At least it's that way for act I. Then act II comes in like the fucking koolaid man and just flips the game around. Not only do you have standard choice making, but you got stats to upgrade (which technically most vns do that but I like this one best. I'm probably biased.) Then the whole property management and upgrading. Really be making a corrupted kingdom. And then ontop of that exploration that isn't just for miny side events that amount up to nothing important. And then we got the training with the girls up in the mountains which actually made me have to think about the best way to complete the missions. I'm sure I'm missing something, and that just goes to show how impressive the gameplay actually is.
Now onto the dev. Our singular, lovely dev, who puts this absolute piece of art on to itch for absolutely free. Not to mention he tends to interact with his community. Oh did I mention that he is incredibly nice and supportive? Normally when you think of a dev for an h-game you think of some guy sitting in his mother's basement all day, but with arc all my mind can even begin to picture is a man who looks similar to Ryan Reynolds, or Giga Chad. Props to you good sir, and may fortune forever be in your favor.
(Edit) completely forgot to review the characters lol. So lemme do that real quick. Each and every character just feels so...Unique...lifelike...real. it feels like I'm interacting with actual people, and I can damn near feel their emotions (I'm technically an empath). This is incredible. They don't feel like things with obstacles to overcome just to fuck, no they are incredible. Well most of them are, the side girls (namely Jessica's friends and the fire apartment girl) seem a little less developed, but that's how they were designed to be. Every main girl is incredibly done, and I wouldn't believe you if you said you spent any less than months on each one.
Now let me give a message real quick before moving on. I know what it's like to have expectations put in your shoulders, the pressure you feel that maybe you aren't good enough. Maybe you cant live up to your name. YOU CAN! IGNORE THAT VOUCE THAT TRIES TO BRING YOU DOWN! YOU ARE AN AMAZING INDIVIDUAL NEVER FORGET IT!
Ahem. Moving on. It is now time for cons. There are only two cons I can think of at the moment. 1. The choices I make wont add up to anything meaningful by the end of the story. This one isn't even that bad, and as a singular dev I completely understand how hard it would be to make different endings. But I do believe somewhere you said you would be making different endings, I'm not entire sure. 2. Not enough dungeon content. There I said it, I like bdsm and there isn't enough. Spankings are good, but...
Anyways now that the reveiw is done let me give a final grade... ... ... 9.99/10. +5 points for story. +3 points for gameplay. +2 points for dev. –0.05 for not enough dungeon content. (Edit) new score is 12.99/10. +3 for characters. (Lol)
Now before I go I do have two questions. The first is how many acts will be in this game?
The second is more complicated. I read through some of the replies you have made, and on numerous occasions you have mentioned a second game. I was just wondering if the protagonist in that game will be the same as the protagonist in this game. (For obvious reasons you dont need to answer this question.)
That is all, I wish you good fortune and a prosperous life arc. -Boborsumnidk(lol)
Awww, thank you! For both the kind words and the detailed review! Posts like this really do make my day and motivate me to push myself even harder on each week's updates. Solo devs live and die on positive feedback, so I really do appreciate it :)
As to your points (and I'll try not to get spoilery here):
1. Yeah, making meaningful, branching choices in a game this size for a solo dev is... rough... to say the least. However! I do plan on having four major endings to the game (one of which will be considered "canon" for future games), each of which will have numerous ending variations depending on particular choices, plus a couple of "minor" endings that will allow players to just "nope" out of the game ;) Act three will streamline things a little, too, so expect more world-altering decisions there.
2. The dungeon will really come into its own in Act Three. Dun dun duuuun!
3. There will be three acts, plus an epilogue :)
4. I actually have a few different draft ideas for the next two games, but currently I'm leaning towards the protagonist from CK1 going missing in CK2 and players play as a new protagonist trying to find him and figure out what happened. But who knows? Lots of ideas! And the next game won't be CK2 - I need to take a break and do a different game first so I don't burn out on these characters and settings.
Hope that answers all your questions, but if not just let me know and I'll do my best to clarify!
This is why we love you Arc. Your one of me favorite creators I look forward to all your games. Gwen and my mc need to get married that's all I'm saying lol. thanks again for your hard work.
I don't know if you can really call the game a demo.
It's more like just early access, game is being developed along the way and you get to see the progress almost every week.
Femboys have been requested before. And Arc doesn't seem entirely against it either, proven by how he added it as an option in the kink polls that go by ever couple of months.
But also it doesn't do that well in the polls. It's a rather controversial kink.
Arc might probably give a better answer once he does his rounds.
Hey, thanks for the kind words! Persona 5 is one of my all-time favourite games so that comparison is super flattering! :)
As Cursed mentioned, I'm not against adding femboy content to the game, but it never does well in polls and it's so controversial that I'd likely have to package it as a separate "DLC/Expansion" or mod.
Despite the lack of Ard fun times, I'm glad you're enjoying the game! ;) I hope you continue to enjoy everything I have planned for the future - both of CK and all subsequent games!
Hey @TheArcadean, I don't want to be mean but, because the support on Discord is ok'ish due to the massif ammounts of questions i'd would like to get feedback from you.
(And as an Community Manager for a Game & my own Business i know it's not that easy...)
Are there translations InGame if not, do you plan on and if yes would you like to get help, I could provide German (for free ofcorse, because the game is awsome AF!), this would also bring in some ppl I know that just don't unterstand English. :D
And would it be possible to get keybindings, not just controller based, a full set for the top right by letters and the nexus/manor and so on like numerical so it's more or less self-explaynatory. it would be a nice confort creep esspecially on Steam-Deck. (Of course I did get trou without that, but sometimes navigation is a bit nervwrecking.)
Do tech support for long enough and at some point you start running on autopilot.
No, there are no official translation. Some people have decided to make them but they're not officially supported and most of the time they're outdated (also a good bunch of them are just machine translated)
There are no plans for official translations until the game is finished or nearly finished. It just isn't feasible with Arc's current workflow (weekly updates), and it would be quite silly to have the translations lagging behind each update or needing to have the translators on speed-dial every single week.
Likewise, the keybinds, if they happen it will also be around that time. As Arc mentioned before "once the game is done I'll be taking two months to go over it, polishing, adding QoL changes and more events/choices/outfits/etc."
Keybinds being one of those QoL changes.
It just isn't a priority. Tight schedule and working all by himself, he has to be firm on what he can and cannot do with his time.
First of all, sorry for the late response, got some nice migrene...
Oh - I do know exactly what you mean, I burnd my self out for over 2 jears in a 7d 10-14h (sometimes up to16h) daily shif without proper rest or vacation time, for our community with creating new content, fixing shit other creators should do..., adding features to other content and so on. I was always on active ingame and ticket support, so I hope you guys at least don't screw your time up with the same over over supportive care.
maybe a ticket system would also be good for you guys because I learned as admin for servers and discord's shy ppl do come up and speak, ppl ask stuff they would not in public and it's a better overvew.
the thing with the translation is understandable if you don't have a external file for that so that the community could just crate those like a mod them self and share those on your discord.
I'm also glad to now know about planed QoL's and that as a possible thing. and it is understanable the it's not in a high priority. - I can at least now say that your vNovel is much more better to control on a Steam Deck without needing of mous or touch support, after I looked into other's...
The tight schedule and workflow i also noticable so there is nothing I would complain about event tho i know a lot of backround tools and stuff I also know that that's never all what it takes, and I learnded a lot that tools sometimes just f#ing die in the middel of the work flow, best parts are alwas 3d tools that skip saving cycles or include an error that works somehow backwards into older saves.
So thanks a lot for your much better response, i will look forwards to your work and if my situation gets better I'm open for Support via Patreon or without cuts over paypal or so. ;-)
I can now totally understand that and If only I would like to chat with you about the background stuff, just out of curiosity.
(BUT only in privat because some stuff doesn't need to be shared in total puplic, like work tools and so on.)
I like learning new stuff or just figuring out what tool's, assets and so on I'm missing. I also always like to create assets for some software or convert 3D Models into usable Assets for an Engine just to have my Mind challenged.
If we hadn't closed our servers two weaks ago I would create stuff thair but now I need to find a new project to get my time to good use.
I don't focus on projects to get money out of as long as I'm not investing money and even if so - I mostly don't need to profit, just not wasting it is enouth.
I guess thats one of my quirks as a western buddhist...
Estoy estancado como ago para entrar a la iglesia me pide que gane la confianza de la tipa pero solo cree una bomba para la organización y ya no puedo avanzar mas que devo aser?
You mean the main story? The next main story update will take CK into the third act, so I need to finish off all the side content first. No timetable on that, I'm afraid, but I'm going as fast as I possibly can, I promise :)
Brace yourself for an onslaught of downvotes, I'm afraid ;P Alice is a precious little bundle of happiness and people will defend her with fire and pitchforks if necessary.
Also, she's a child. I shouldn't have to say this, but there is not, never has been and never will be any form of child sexualization in CK or any past or future game I create.
Fire and pitchforks? Not intimidating enough for my tastes. I have already helped put one person in prison for dealing with children. The next time I bring out my rifle, and just to be clear, I am a VERY good shot...
I completed Emmas storyline i believe, but i didnt have the east hall unlocked in the manor at the time, so she wasnt able to come stay with me. Now that i do have it unlocked, how do i get her to come live with me? Also, how do i get her pregnant again? I can only seem to invite her a few places, and none of them end up in sex. (Side note, i absolutely love this game!)
This is the worst game ever played, I hate good quality writing, and pretty consistent update schedules, I hate lots of content I want updates once a year that fixes one spelling mistake and nothing else. (I am joking of course, great game 10/10)
Not gonna lie, after three years of weekly updates the thought of only having to update once a year made me space out for a moment and emit a blissful "Mmmm~" ;)
And thanks! I'm glad you're enjoying the game! I hope you stick around and enjoy everything I have planned for CK, and all future games set in its universe :)

keep up the great work. great game. great sex scenes and a great story
Aww, thanks! I appreciate it! :)
44 hours in the game and i just reached the end of the content, just before the « big event ».
The game is really good and i really like how pregnancy and children are. It's fun because after reaching the end of the content, i spend much time with all differents event across the map and it looked like i spent time with my families before the fight.

What Cursed said :)

Hey Arc, question. For Jessica's night sex scene, when she's riding the MC, is the MC's fingers suppose to sink into her thighs, or was that a glitch?
Clipping (or floating) is unfortunately an unavoidable issue when it comes to animating 3D models. There are AAA games on the market that haven't managed to do away with it entirely, so as a solo dev I just do the best I can ;)
Thanks for the response. Much appreciated it, and don't worry. It was just a question out of curiosity. Thanks again!
Looks like you’re a girl?
Everytime I'm about to save and leave I always decide to go to Samantha before saving
10/10 game
With a husband like hers, I'm sure she appreciates the care and attention! :) I'm glad you're enjoying the game!
I've been meaning to ask but what does the gwen yandere mode do? I encountered that in some cases whenever I leave, she stops me and weirdly sniffs at me like some kind of a stalker. After that nothing weird I encountered related to her ever happens. Am I doing wrong or there is some specific thing that I need to do first?
To be quite honest this game is pretty good and pretty captivating to watch sometimes. I also like how the dev is a goddamn chad for giving us a great game that is essentially free. Just some of my thoughts for the game lol.
That kinda is Gwen's yandere mode.
Her original personality, plus what you did to her, she's very clingy.
If you don't have sex with her at least two times a week she starts getting more and more crazy.
If you don't have sex with her for like a month or so she gets to the final stage.
Not much more than that, but don't worry she won't kill or harm anyone, that would upset the MC and she's rather die than upset the MC.
She goes through "Yandere mode" changes, getting increasingly more crazily-obsessed with you the longer you ignore her for. Starts with sniffing, moves on to text messages and then... well, I won't spoil the surprise ;)
I'm glad you're enjoying the game! :)
Sorry for replying late but thanks for all your hardwork man I appreciate it. Hope that not only you create hot content for us that appreciates your work but also create captivating content that is not neccessarily pornographic.

Hmm, that's strange... is it only happening for CK, or do you have the same problem with other Ren'py games?

Sorry I can't be more help! It's an issue with Ren'py and Android's interaction and I can't do anything about either of those kits :(
Thanks, it only happens with ck, but not always, it's a bit weird.
Probably something wrong with my phone i.e. custom firmware (xiaomi.eu)
Thanks again ^^
AMAZING GAME! I love the real estate portion of it and the fact that you have to work at the school in order to unlock scenes. Your doing great!
Thanks! I'm glad you're enjoying the game - that means a lot to hear :)
How do i get to know luna , I've been trying to find something in the darkness with the candle and the only thing i found was the swamp thing
follow what the candle light say
thank you, and could you tell me how to progress in the "explore the town" in roxys questline i really dont know what to do in there
edit: nevermind i finally got it
Hey guys, i've been stucked on jessica's storyline, problably skipped what to do and dont understand the hint, It says "i should keep investiganting, and learn more about the organization", sry for the inconvinience and for the broken english XD
Follow the "Organisation" lead (the envelope icon in the top-right of your screen shows all your leads). If you don't have an Organisation lead then you haven't yet triggered the Gramps questline, which you need to do by going to the Manor's garden and then following all the hints until you unlock the lake in the mountains.
Hope that helps! :)
how do i update the game?
Android? Download the apk and install as an update, DO NOT UNINSTALL.
Other platforms, just download the game and launch again.
I really recommend using the itch.io launcher.
https://itch.io/app
Been playing for over a week now and this game is kinda addictive in the sense that the story is just so good and the characters are so amazing. Every one of them is so unique and I have a tough time thinking who is best girl (But maybe it's pixie, call me basic but I think maybe it is) Good humor, Good Drama but I'm sorry the Hitting sound effects in some dramatic scenes are some you'd hear in like YouTube videos and It is so hilarious It really breaks the dramatic tension and not in a good way. This is what I'm looking for in a RPG VN, Well done to the team
jessica best girl
Pixie best girl :)
No team, just me I'm afraid :) I'm glad you're enjoying the game, though! I agree that the sound effects could be better, but I'm working with a very small sample of free sfx so unfortunately my choices are limited, haha. Maybe I'll be able to find some better ones and substitute them later on!
Still though Keep up the great work, looking forward to future updates
How do I find Sally so I can buy the company?
Sally appears in the college sub-story.
Which is unlocked after progressing Madison's story and buying the college from her.
When you reach authority level 5 in the college (last level of authority) you will be able to visit Sally's company in the map and ask her to sell it to you.
Hey man, loving your game. I honestly didn't expect to be hooked to it as I am now. I'm looking forward to each update now. I was wondering why the gallery is missing some H scenes that are actually in game tho? Anyways keep up the good work !
The gallery isn't meant to have all the sex scenes.
It's meant for you to be able to revisit scenes that are one-time only.
If a scene isn't in the gallery, is because it can be easily repeated by just playing the game.
Hey, thank you very much! I'm glad you're enjoying the game :)
As for your question, well, what Cursed said. Eventually even the repeatable scenes will be in the Gallery (and I've added a couple already) but probably not until the game is in a finished state and I'm in the "polish/passthrough" stage.
Hey just wondering if there were any plans for more content with the girls in the burned apartment.
Also love the game, story and girls hooked me defo the best H game ive played
Thanks, I'm glad you're enjoying the game! :) As for Jackie and Samantha, yes, more content for both is planned. Hopefully sooner rather than later!
Hey ive gotten pretty far in the game, but i see the game can be updated. How do i transfer saves on android?
On android if you download the apk and install it as an update you should keep your saves.
NEVER UNINSTALL, you will lose your saves.
You can make a backup, just get a file manager that can access the folder (Solid Explorer is recommended) and go to:
Android/data/com.domain.corruptedkingdoms/files/saves
Grab the files and copy them somewhere else, you can even move them to your computer.
thank you very much
I cant download the itchio link, pls give me the mega link
There is no Mega link. Just head over to Patreon or Subscribestar to grab the update from either Workupload or my privately-hosted server :)
love this game
Thanks! :)
Arc the dev i hope you're reading this i just wanna say I love this game the story is so wonderful, the characters are so lovely it's really immersive in a way because you really feel connected to all the characters.
And also my favourite character of all is Pixie she's just so energetic and enthusiastic on whatever scenario it might be and i love how she appears in your photos and I'm looking forward to seeing more photos of you with Pixie.
Keep doing what you're doing man, even though i don't have money to support you , i just love this game so much.
Aww, thank you! I really appreciate that, and I'm glad you're enjoying the game! I hope you continue to enjoy everything I have planned for the future as well! :)
More "Pixie Adventure" photosets will definitely happen! It's a lot of work, but I enjoyed doing them,
im on mac, how do I open the download? I have it, I dont get it
You mean how do you extract the RAR file? You need some kind of unzipping software, such as Unarchiver:

Please help I'm stuck at Luna quest. "West, then south all the way, then east all the way".
go to outskirts and go west south than east
Nothing happen.. I already buy the tunnel map too but still nothing.
I think you need to go to the tunnels (in Luna's Demesne) and then follow those directions
any idea how to bring ami to the school? i wanna make them a smartie pants but it seems i can take basicly everyone but her
M8, Ami can barely read and you want to bring her to a "college-level" class.
Like, I get what you mean, but you gotta understand the ingame context.
To be fair it's not like Kana and Pixie have had much of a formal education before you bring them to the college, and Ami seems verry eager to learn.
But you do have a point, I imagine Kana and Pixie having the educational level of a 10-12 years old, while Ami must be around 5 or 6 y/o learning to write and read.
Still It would be really cool if in the future, helping Ami with her education (even if it's not in the college) was an option, cuz she's such a precious little thing and I adore her. But the game is so f-ing good and Arc works so hard doing weekly updates that I would feel bad asking for more lol
Ami is actually already getting a little help with her education - check out her room on Sunday morning :)
OMG I didn't know that, IT IS SO WHOLESOME! My heart has been melted, thank you!
is there any option to skip the plot to the point where I stopped, if I didn't save it?
No, game doesn't have skips, not sure if Arc wants to add them either.
If you're on the same machine and didn't lose your saves, check the A, page in the saves, that's for autosaves and the game autosaves every time you go to sleep.
If not, well, your only option would be to get someone else's savefile.
When I try to install the game it does not install I have 3 GB of space and it still won't install
Sometimes android is weird, it may ask up to 4 or 5 GB of free space to install a 1GB apk.
But I would suggest downloading Split APK Installer from the playstore or wherever you get your apps from.
And using that to install the game, if it fails it wil at least tell you why, but for some people it works right away.
Go into 'Apps' on your Android and in filter options turn on 'Show system apps', then look for 'Package installer/Application installer', the one that has a suspiciously large storage usage is the thing in which you have to go into, click 'Storage' and then 'Clear data'.
For some reason that thing fully duplicates the files you tried to install if the installation failed and it keeps duplicates of some data from things you installed over time. It's safe to clear it.
Also make sure you delete installation packages of games you installed already. Otherwise you have double the storage use.
And clearing cache of Chrome is advised if you're using it.
do i have to download the whole file again to update the game?
On Android? Yes, download the APK, don't uninstall just update.
On computer, if you're using the itch.io launcher you can download the game with it and when you update you will only have to download the new stuff and not the entire thing.
Without the launcher, yeah entire thing again.
how do i download the launcher
https://itch.io/app
will there ever be a way for you to sleep with hana and not get jumpscared by ard ;((( also can we sneak into her room in the next update
And then there's also some people asking to do more with Ard...
But who knows if you can separate them or not...
You have a 30% chance of getting Ard's scene.
And the sneaking into their rooms next update... no.
It will take some more time before that happens, if it ever happens.
oh maybe in a future update the player can use that potion that mutes choles alt text on hana and ard, and depending on who drinks it stays active for a 7 day period and can let the player focus on just one of them at a time so they could each have their own mini stories that need the potion to be do able , also unrelated but hope therest of east wing gets more stuff to do aswell
Pregnancy: Girls can no longer give birth until you've met Artifact What does it mean?
When you get access to the nexus and visit the girls in those locations you will make contact with the Artifact.
And you need that because the Artifact explains how the pregnancy works in this game which allows you to start impregnating girls.
Things break if you do them out of order, and the girls 4th heart event would override that.
Can someone help me find this game, it starts with some sort of battle I think the protagonist lost the war or something and then some years later a succubus or something revived him.
succubus game?
That sounds like Monster Girl Island: Prologue; it's also on Steam
I found it, it's called tyrant quest
What about my quest with the nun
What about it? You just follow the leads until the "no more content" appears
When where next update for chastity
Arc is wrapping up the second act of the story, Chastity won't have more progression until the third act.
So not that soon, unless Arc decides to add some small event that doesn't require story progression like the bar dates.
Does any of the characters in this have small boobs? or is Emma the only one?
Kana, Qarinah, Hana and Ami also have small boobs.
More big than small boobs in the game but there definitely are smaller boobs in the game
Well, it depends on what counts for you as small.
For me, Madison's are comically oversized but for someone else they're just big.
Anywho, you forgot Emma, the Rinkos, Zoe and Penny, the two blondes in the college courtyard, Jackie and Hatsume from the kunoichi.
Some of those have a bit of boobage and some are almost flat.
Depends on your range.
I completed every mission I get but how I can complete cafe mission ? I can't talk with Claire
Follow what the lead says.
There's a step people always seem to forget.
Probably is talking to gramps.
I don't tend to make reviews... but my god when I say this is, by far, one of the best h-games I have ever played.
Where to even begin? Story is absolutely excellent. Its not just, "meet girls, get them to like you, and fuck them." No it's so much more. Between the different "numbers" the eldritch, the org, the Fey (mostly morgana and the council) there is just so much lore to keep track of. And its it's amazing.
Gameplay is, and mind the bluntness, standard. It's a visual novel, it does what a visual novel does, and it's good. At least it's that way for act I. Then act II comes in like the fucking koolaid man and just flips the game around. Not only do you have standard choice making, but you got stats to upgrade (which technically most vns do that but I like this one best. I'm probably biased.) Then the whole property management and upgrading. Really be making a corrupted kingdom. And then ontop of that exploration that isn't just for miny side events that amount up to nothing important. And then we got the training with the girls up in the mountains which actually made me have to think about the best way to complete the missions. I'm sure I'm missing something, and that just goes to show how impressive the gameplay actually is.
Now onto the dev. Our singular, lovely dev, who puts this absolute piece of art on to itch for absolutely free. Not to mention he tends to interact with his community. Oh did I mention that he is incredibly nice and supportive? Normally when you think of a dev for an h-game you think of some guy sitting in his mother's basement all day, but with arc all my mind can even begin to picture is a man who looks similar to Ryan Reynolds, or Giga Chad. Props to you good sir, and may fortune forever be in your favor.
(Edit) completely forgot to review the characters lol. So lemme do that real quick. Each and every character just feels so...Unique...lifelike...real. it feels like I'm interacting with actual people, and I can damn near feel their emotions (I'm technically an empath). This is incredible. They don't feel like things with obstacles to overcome just to fuck, no they are incredible. Well most of them are, the side girls (namely Jessica's friends and the fire apartment girl) seem a little less developed, but that's how they were designed to be. Every main girl is incredibly done, and I wouldn't believe you if you said you spent any less than months on each one.
Now let me give a message real quick before moving on. I know what it's like to have expectations put in your shoulders, the pressure you feel that maybe you aren't good enough. Maybe you cant live up to your name. YOU CAN! IGNORE THAT VOUCE THAT TRIES TO BRING YOU DOWN! YOU ARE AN AMAZING INDIVIDUAL NEVER FORGET IT!
Ahem. Moving on. It is now time for cons. There are only two cons I can think of at the moment. 1. The choices I make wont add up to anything meaningful by the end of the story. This one isn't even that bad, and as a singular dev I completely understand how hard it would be to make different endings. But I do believe somewhere you said you would be making different endings, I'm not entire sure. 2. Not enough dungeon content. There I said it, I like bdsm and there isn't enough. Spankings are good, but...
Anyways now that the reveiw is done let me give a final grade... ... ... 9.99/10. +5 points for story. +3 points for gameplay. +2 points for dev. –0.05 for not enough dungeon content. (Edit) new score is 12.99/10. +3 for characters. (Lol)
Now before I go I do have two questions. The first is how many acts will be in this game?
The second is more complicated. I read through some of the replies you have made, and on numerous occasions you have mentioned a second game. I was just wondering if the protagonist in that game will be the same as the protagonist in this game. (For obvious reasons you dont need to answer this question.)
That is all, I wish you good fortune and a prosperous life arc. -Boborsumnidk(lol)
Awww, thank you! For both the kind words and the detailed review! Posts like this really do make my day and motivate me to push myself even harder on each week's updates. Solo devs live and die on positive feedback, so I really do appreciate it :)
As to your points (and I'll try not to get spoilery here):
1. Yeah, making meaningful, branching choices in a game this size for a solo dev is... rough... to say the least. However! I do plan on having four major endings to the game (one of which will be considered "canon" for future games), each of which will have numerous ending variations depending on particular choices, plus a couple of "minor" endings that will allow players to just "nope" out of the game ;) Act three will streamline things a little, too, so expect more world-altering decisions there.
2. The dungeon will really come into its own in Act Three. Dun dun duuuun!
3. There will be three acts, plus an epilogue :)
4. I actually have a few different draft ideas for the next two games, but currently I'm leaning towards the protagonist from CK1 going missing in CK2 and players play as a new protagonist trying to find him and figure out what happened. But who knows? Lots of ideas! And the next game won't be CK2 - I need to take a break and do a different game first so I don't burn out on these characters and settings.
Hope that answers all your questions, but if not just let me know and I'll do my best to clarify!
And thanks again for the glowing review :)
Yes this answers all of my questions, thank you for taking the time to reply!
This is why we love you Arc. Your one of me favorite creators I look forward to all your games. Gwen and my mc need to get married that's all I'm saying lol. thanks again for your hard work.
I don't know if you can really call the game a demo.
It's more like just early access, game is being developed along the way and you get to see the progress almost every week.
Femboys have been requested before.
And Arc doesn't seem entirely against it either, proven by how he added it as an option in the kink polls that go by ever couple of months.
But also it doesn't do that well in the polls. It's a rather controversial kink.
Arc might probably give a better answer once he does his rounds.
Hey, thanks for the kind words! Persona 5 is one of my all-time favourite games so that comparison is super flattering! :)
As Cursed mentioned, I'm not against adding femboy content to the game, but it never does well in polls and it's so controversial that I'd likely have to package it as a separate "DLC/Expansion" or mod.
Despite the lack of Ard fun times, I'm glad you're enjoying the game! ;) I hope you continue to enjoy everything I have planned for the future - both of CK and all subsequent games!
Hey @TheArcadean, I don't want to be mean but, because the support on Discord is ok'ish due to the massif ammounts of questions i'd would like to get feedback from you.
(And as an Community Manager for a Game & my own Business i know it's not that easy...)
Are there translations InGame if not, do you plan on and if yes would you like to get help, I could provide German (for free ofcorse, because the game is awsome AF!), this would also bring in some ppl I know that just don't unterstand English. :D
And would it be possible to get keybindings, not just controller based, a full set for the top right by letters and the nexus/manor and so on like numerical so it's more or less self-explaynatory. it would be a nice confort creep esspecially on Steam-Deck. (Of course I did get trou without that, but sometimes navigation is a bit nervwrecking.)
greetings

Do tech support for long enough and at some point you start running on autopilot.
No, there are no official translation.
Some people have decided to make them but they're not officially supported and most of the time they're outdated (also a good bunch of them are just machine translated)
There are no plans for official translations until the game is finished or nearly finished.
It just isn't feasible with Arc's current workflow (weekly updates), and it would be quite silly to have the translations lagging behind each update or needing to have the translators on speed-dial every single week.
Likewise, the keybinds, if they happen it will also be around that time.
As Arc mentioned before "once the game is done I'll be taking two months to go over it, polishing, adding QoL changes and more events/choices/outfits/etc."
Keybinds being one of those QoL changes.
It just isn't a priority.
Tight schedule and working all by himself, he has to be firm on what he can and cannot do with his time.
First of all, sorry for the late response, got some nice migrene...
Oh - I do know exactly what you mean, I burnd my self out for over 2 jears in a 7d 10-14h (sometimes up to16h) daily shif without proper rest or vacation time, for our community with creating new content, fixing shit other creators should do..., adding features to other content and so on. I was always on active ingame and ticket support, so I hope you guys at least don't screw your time up with the same over over supportive care.
maybe a ticket system would also be good for you guys because I learned as admin for servers and discord's shy ppl do come up and speak, ppl ask stuff they would not in public and it's a better overvew.
the thing with the translation is understandable if you don't have a external file for that so that the community could just crate those like a mod them self and share those on your discord.
I'm also glad to now know about planed QoL's and that as a possible thing. and it is understanable the it's not in a high priority. - I can at least now say that your vNovel is much more better to control on a Steam Deck without needing of mous or touch support, after I looked into other's...
The tight schedule and workflow i also noticable so there is nothing I would complain about event tho i know a lot of backround tools and stuff I also know that that's never all what it takes, and I learnded a lot that tools sometimes just f#ing die in the middel of the work flow, best parts are alwas 3d tools that skip saving cycles or include an error that works somehow backwards into older saves.
So thanks a lot for your much better response, i will look forwards to your work and if my situation gets better I'm open for Support via Patreon or without cuts over paypal or so. ;-)
What Cursed said :) I don't really have anything to add!
I can now totally understand that and If only I would like to chat with you about the background stuff, just out of curiosity.
(BUT only in privat because some stuff doesn't need to be shared in total puplic, like work tools and so on.)
I like learning new stuff or just figuring out what tool's, assets and so on I'm missing. I also always like to create assets for some software or convert 3D Models into usable Assets for an Engine just to have my Mind challenged.
If we hadn't closed our servers two weaks ago I would create stuff thair but now I need to find a new project to get my time to good use.
I don't focus on projects to get money out of as long as I'm not investing money and even if so - I mostly don't need to profit, just not wasting it is enouth.
I guess thats one of my quirks as a western buddhist...
Living in a very mixed livestyle...
So thanks a lot!
When are we going to be able to fuck claire, and chastity?
Somewhere in act 3, they need progression.
Estoy estancado como ago para entrar a la iglesia me pide que gane la confianza de la tipa pero solo cree una bomba para la organización y ya no puedo avanzar mas que devo aser?
Tienes que tener todas las partes de la historia principal completas para progresar.
ELD, ORG y FEY.
by which update does the story continue?
i think theres gonna be a act 3 that will countie the story
You mean the main story? The next main story update will take CK into the third act, so I need to finish off all the side content first. No timetable on that, I'm afraid, but I'm going as fast as I possibly can, I promise :)
okey thanks
okey thanks
No
Brace yourself for an onslaught of downvotes, I'm afraid ;P Alice is a precious little bundle of happiness and people will defend her with fire and pitchforks if necessary.
Also, she's a child. I shouldn't have to say this, but there is not, never has been and never will be any form of child sexualization in CK or any past or future game I create.
Fire and pitchforks? Not intimidating enough for my tastes. I have already helped put one person in prison for dealing with children. The next time I bring out my rifle, and just to be clear, I am a VERY good shot...
I completed Emmas storyline i believe, but i didnt have the east hall unlocked in the manor at the time, so she wasnt able to come stay with me. Now that i do have it unlocked, how do i get her to come live with me? Also, how do i get her pregnant again? I can only seem to invite her a few places, and none of them end up in sex. (Side note, i absolutely love this game!)
Emma is a main girl, she stays in the west wing.
OMG 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️ I dont understand how I didnt notice that! 😅🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️ Welp, I feel dumb. Thank you for the help lol
This is the worst game ever played, I hate good quality writing, and pretty consistent update schedules, I hate lots of content I want updates once a year that fixes one spelling mistake and nothing else. (I am joking of course, great game 10/10)
Not gonna lie, after three years of weekly updates the thought of only having to update once a year made me space out for a moment and emit a blissful "Mmmm~" ;)
And thanks! I'm glad you're enjoying the game! I hope you stick around and enjoy everything I have planned for CK, and all future games set in its universe :)
As eager as I am to get some payback on Morgana, I'm also curious if we'll be able to do anything with either Erica or the Dhena at any point.
Yes and yes :)
