Unity - Completed - Goons Raid Her [v1.0.1] [The Architect]

Smooth operator


The Architect already has quite a track record of remarkable adult games under his belt (no pun intended) - more specifically the Hack'n Stalk series.
I'm still bummed that Hack'n Stalk 3 was discontinued, but I'll be damned if Goons Raid Her isn't a worthy successor.


The good

• Goons Raid Her is an actual game with lots of different choices and routes.
• Visuals are great (I like the animations and also the "marzipan-y" look of female characters).
• Interesting characters (even the bad guys are awesome).
• Atmospheric locations (you get a real sense of adventure and suspense).
• Refreshing ideas (even the mini games are mostly enjoyable).
• Decent writing (dialogue & story)
• Erotic scenes
• Romance (I only did a romantic "trust" playthrough yet).
• Humour (seriously, Goons Raid Her is hilariously funny at times).

The so-so

• Sound effects are sparse (some - like Lara's exclamations - are good, some - like her footsteps - seem off. I wished there were more ambient sounds, like jungle birds. I also wished there was music to accentuate - for example - moments of danger).
• Playing without a walkthrough can easily lead to unwanted outcomes, which makes it difficult to follow a certain route.

The improvable

• Subpar save system (if you made a choice with an undesired outcome you have to restart at the last autosave).
• Quite a lot of spelling & grammatical errors and quirky phrasings.

Goons Raid Her is a great game which can be played (and enjoyed) in many different ways.
The only thing that really bothers me (and I'm not a native speaker myself), is that there are too many misspellings and grammatical errors, which is in stark contrast to the overall excellent production quality of this game, so please: Get a proofreader!
Goons Raid Her is definitely a must-play. Do yourself a favour and play it ASAP.

So to be honest this is the first game that actually make me want to FULLY UNLOCK EVERYTHING IN IT.

PRO:
- Good graphic or i must say it is gorgeous 11/10. Compare to most games recently you can see the different.
- Good game despite the horrible budget, just imagine most of these things in game are made around 1000$ (
- Story is connected, not broken or unbelievable
- CHOICE, you can actually choose what to do in here, the story is for you, you can play the game in your way (from the corruption point to the sex way or even how it should have ended).... It's a whole new experience each time you choose.
- There are many way you can choose to play the game depending on your choices and it make this game become so unique but not like visual novel where you can only read... this game have enough action to keep it fun but not too much like RPG maker games. PERFECTLY BALANCE between playing and reading.

CON:
- The saving system is really crappy. You have to collect the file save, which is kinda hard to remember and time wasting. However it can be forgive because of those PROS.
- PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE MAKE A GALLERY AFTER YOU, Game developers, FINISHED THE GAME because there isn't. The only way for you to watch the scene again is to collect a bunch of save files (hard to remember which one is that scene) or ) going through the story again to watch that scene. ALSO PLEASE PUT THE DIALOG IN THE GALLERY LIKE NORMAL GAME not ( just pictures like Hack'n Stalk 2 because it suck.

IN THE END, THIS IS A MUST PLAY GAME BECAUSE IT'S ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. THANK YOU DEVELOPERS <3

Well - at first i must say...

This game is absolutely a must have for everyone here!!! One of the best ever created.

PROS:
- CHOICES - you actually have them in this game, and they're made just awesome!
- GRAPHICS - just fantastic - absolutely 10/10 - (C)Lara's body is perfect, and even penises are real, and not too oversized
- GAMEPLAY - no grinding, not too much wandering - just as much as it should be
- INVOLVING - Unlike many ren'py games here - you can't just skip text to watch some scenes, quickly fap, and delete it. This game will involve you into playing and you'll feel the world of the game ;p
- NOT FINISHED, BUT STILL ENOUGH CONTENT - For now - there's quite good amount of content, so you'll sit with this game for at least 5h i think ;p
- FETISHES - well - it's indivudual thing, but this game has A DAMN HOT FETISHES
- CORRUPTION SYSTEM - you can easily control the pace of corrupting her This game allows you that
- IT'S A GAME - NOT JUST A VISUAL NOVEL
- ONE OF THE MOST ADVANCED GAMES IN HERE - it's not "milking machine" - it's noticable that dev is putting his heart into it
- QUITE HOT VOICEACTING (cuz it's taken from TR ;p)

CONS:
- NO MUSIC - this game is quite silent - there's no music in here. I understand developer though - rights to legally use a song can be expensive, but it's a little defect anyway ;p
- SAVING SYSTEM AND NOT ENOUGH AUTOSAVE SLOTS - make sure to "collect" your autosave, cuz the game will start to overwrite time quite quickly. Also you cant save from the menu, but the game saves itself before important minigames or decisions

Again - it's sad that one of the most advenced and best games here have so little financial support... Games stupid as fuck, and the ones that was created to milk patreons can earn above 3000$, but this game don't even have 1000$. Supporting right now!

I never rated a game before, but this one is deserving.

I have just finished Chapter 5 on a second playthrough enabling the "rosebud" cheat after passing the game a first time without (and missing some scenes). You really don't need to go out of your way to "grind" Corruption anyway, even without cheats. Sometimes it's advisable to keep your Mind above 50 to at least have some options. Other times you may want it low. I played corruption path through and through, as you can probably tell.

Fully disclosure, I am the target audience of this game. I played the TR franchise reboot, and even read articles about Lara's lewd sound design, and several scenes, a few years back.

The game's most tedious part is the lack of voluntary save system combined with no option for rollback. If you have played a lot of Ren'Py games, this will likely tick you off a little, but otherwise it's fine. The minigames and timed events can be replayed most of the time. The autosave system does a fairly good job of giving you a reset point if you don't pick the desired choice, but it still involved rewatching cutscenes quite a bit (press Z) if you want to retry another route.

Gameplay (the loop + annoyance-free UI): 8/10

Graphics would be a solid 9/10, and a 10 would have to be really fucking flawless. The 2D/2.5/3D graphics are amazing. The art style is consistent. It's a treat for the eyes. It's also well animated, which is a HUGE plus. It's the best graphics I've seen for a long time, if ever.

As far as porn goes, it's an 8/10. The complete version of the game will probably improve on this. There is a lot to be enjoyed here, and I'd say it's more than 4 hours of gameplay EASILY. You have a lot of kinks covered, and the corruption is acceptably fast for me (she starts the game with a degree of naïveté I find arousing, and she steadily enters the Abyss). I just wish the stat could go higher than 100, and that there were more rewards for higher scores. I would have easily reached 200 without even using "rosebud".

The game features a dual "female protagonist" / "male protagonist", which is very good. It's not a full fledged "female protagonist" game, but you control Lara's actions a fair bit.

Overall, I will give this game a 9/10. (Don't look for other reviews from me, this is a first, I made an exception.)

This is one of the best female MC games I have played so far, for the following 2 main reasons.

1. You have stats that actually matter.
Lara has 3 main stats (corruption, trust and mind). Depending on your playstyle certain choices will be grayed out. So instead of having a simple yes/no choice before a scene that merely gives you the illusion of having a choice (because only one decision triggers a sex scene), the game is actually pretty consequent in this regard.
This way you can shape the gameplay to your own taste and make Lara a common slut (corruption), fall in love with you (trust) or lower her self esteem (mind), which is the "darkest" path but also kind of fun, especially since there aren't many games that let you play this way.

2. The game has two playable characters.
Lara and a male PC who supports her during her missions over the phone and meets her between missions at Lara's manor. That's actually a pretty clever move by the developer. This way, a lot of problems female MC games have become more plausible since you don't have an incomprehensible stupid woman who could barely survive in the real world for more than 5 minutes, but instead you can influence Lara (in a good or bad way) through the male PC.
This doesn't make the game realistic or anything (which is good, this is a fantasy after all), but way more believable than comparable games.

So I definitely recommend this game, especially to those who are bored by other games in which the female character always ends up being a slut who enjoys being treated like a whore. But if that's your prefered kink, you can also play "goons raid her" this way.

This is one of the hottest games I've ever played, and I've played A LOT of porn games. The art work is fantastic and the different paths give lots of options to match pretty much any play style or perversion.

Game version: [v1.0.1]

Underrated game. And it is actually a game, which is rare.

The writing is good, the sex scenes are hot, the animations are sometimes derpy, but mostly neat.

Overall, if you want to fuck Lara Croft, this is your game.

Review of 0.4.2

I loved this game. I liked the idea of you being tech support for Lara on her missions. There are a good amount of choices offered to you to complete objectives and advance the story. Actually having to move from place to place didn't detract from the enjoyment.

As for the script there are the occasional spelling and grammar errors, but not severe enough to where you can't understand what's going on.

My only real issue is with how naive Lara is. If you've played the games you know she's nowhere near as immature as she's portrayed here. She's like a 12 year old experiencing some things for the first time. Despite this it's still an excellent game and I highly recommend it.

This is a very interesting story, curious actions that give the main character to go through different options. Can Lara make her to sweetheart , or chickenshits. It all depends on your actions with Lara.
All her actions will depend only on your actions and advice. I played twice-with NTR - and she cut evildoer's throat with both electricity and a knife.

Lora Craft fetish done well, it actually feels like playing a game, for once and the sex scenes are quite good, bonus if you like point and click adventure games.

What else could i say, original art and concept as far as porn games goes, only 4* because i was disappointed by the maid thing and i really didn't see that coming.

As I already said, I love the nasty stuff you can get up to. For a linear game, there is a surprising amount of freedom given to the player. Attention to detail even in the NAMING screen FTW. Just name her the character that we all know this is inspired in and you'll see.

This feels like a triple A standout game in a lazy sea of DAZ VNs and RPGmaker timesinks.
The models are just that, real animated 2D models, not just pictures. Same goes for the backgrounds, everything is drawn and hand placed and some things can be interacted with. The dev really has an eye for details and you can tell that he actually gives a shit. You can nitpick around animations and textures endlessly if you want to but fact is, compared to the current porn game market, a crazy amount of work is being done here.
Mostly the same was true for the developers earlier games, namely the Hack'n Stalk series. But this one is definitely a step up in terms of visual quality, accessibility and gameplay elements. It feels more like a low budget version of an old point & click adventure than a porn game to be honest.
Finally, he even learned that it's not that grand of an idea to have people play guitar hero during a sex scene.
Really looking forward to every new version, although even now it's already a nice amount of content to at least fill an afternoon.

Actually a really great adult game mixing gameplay and erotic stuff really well together. The Architect learned from his previous games and basicaly made a better game on every level with this one, on top of being more ambitious with the size of the project with a deeper story, more gameplay etc. I also like the fact that you truly have different choices, and If you choose the corruption path for example Lara will truly change his behaviour by liking sex and being seductive.

Really one of the best games out there, looking forward for more and good job to the develloper ! He really managed to step up.

This game is proof once more that Lara Croft exists only to be abused. Here you can go through many scenes and spend hours just enoying her being humiliated and violated by terrible human beings. Love or hate her then this game is exactly for you, lots of options and paths to choose from not to mention loveley looking character models.

Reviews based on v0.3.2:

Early stages yet but you can get a good hour of gameplay with a sufficient amount of h scenes throughout. It leans heavily on choices made by the player and there are two main routes you can go, the loving and caring or the corruption and domination route. Both offer a nice amount of variation to gameplay so i reckon replay value will be good for this one. The story is based heavily on the original games lore but takes it its own way, or rather in a lewd way. Spelling is not 100% perfect and you can find your share of spelling errors playing trough it, like for example Mistery instead of mystery... But nothing more major than things like that.

Gameplay overall is really fun and is easy to play, puzzles and such don't take a lot of time and is playable with one hand

Models and sex scenes are hot, and am really looking forward for where he will be taking this next.

Original idead, plot is so and so, but the lack of stars in my review is because of the major cucking and raping themes in the games - the game isn't even tagged for it, which it should, because I'm pretty sure, you won't go through this game, without having forced the main female character to initiate some sort of raping scene to get released or move past obstacles.

this is one of my new favorite games on the site the graphics and story are awesome. it feels like the choices you make ingame actually matter although your characters run kinda stupid so what are you gonna do i guess.

Very good at this early stage. The scenes are still limited, of course, but the engine is ok. Maybe there is a way to navigate faster. The minigames should be optional. The characters are a bit exaggerated but bearable. I'm still undecided would like to try the next update. The game is fun and if the story becomes a little more independent then it is a clear recommendation.

Pros:
+ Awesome Graphics/Animations (Lara is obviously super hot)
+ Short and easy minigames
+ Interesting and funny story
+ Compared to The Architects previous games the h-scene interactions feel easier

Cons:
- The h-scenes in the village are less awesome as they non-player characters all have weird ugly skin (this is regarding the jail and Larry scenes)
- Fast travel between locations would be nice

The Connoisseur rating for Goons Raid Her [v0.3.1]

Graphics are awesome, miss "Clara Roft" is stunning and the maid is also good looking

Writing is good, the game has a way to keep you playing to know what can be done over and over again.

The story is good but it's still short, I can see great things coming for this one, you canturn her into a slut or an inocent lover.

This is one of the few Unity games I actually enjoyed playing

The overall game is really good, the way things are presented, the characters, the sounds, the movement, deserving someting like 4.5 stars
