HTML - Seven Sins [Ch2 v1.4 REBUILD] [Lianland]

What a wonderful game. Three separate paths, and a focus on narrative over grind. A story that doesn't need to gatekeep its content behind artificial gameplay gimmicks shows a writer who is confident in the story they are telling. I look forward to where this story is going, and the world that Lianland is undoubtedly building.

review for ch2 v1.4 rebuild.

love this shit , probs ma fav current html real porn game.
great choice of models, and lots of them.
funny dialogue , lots of choices and paths.
lots of nuts lost to this, will lose lots more.

I just have finished my first run on the game, Chapter 2, in love route for most of the characters, and I came here to say some nice words about the game. But, first of all, I checked the date of the starting post and I see that the game have been running for less than 3 months. The amount of content delivered it´s impressive to an insane level!. There are games that have delivered less content in 3 years.

The prologue and the first chapter seems almost perfect to me. It have a good pace, the game it´s not just an excuse to put porn clips glued one to another, and the characters have deep (at least for the parameters of a porn game) and there are an story developing. Chapter 2 it´s not so well rounded, IMO. Still good, but it´s too cramped with sex scenes. A slower pace should have fit better my taste, having 1-2 sex scenes per day, not 5-6.

A minor nitpicking. When the chars speak in Spanish it´s awful. From simply "bad grammar" to "I´m unable to understand what they are saying" in some cases. It´s not a big deal or really important for most of the players, but for me, being a Spanish native speaker, every line hutsw the "suspension of disbelieve".

It is a nice game, interesting characters, interesting story, a lot of content, it is a good game to pass the time.

My biggest problem is that sometimes the mc is white, sometimes black, sometimes Latino, it takes away the immersion a bit but hey, it's a real porn game so we can't expect much, and another big problem is the number of typos that there are in this game. the dev needs a proofreader ASAP.

Disappointing.

Thus, it is disappointing because only what we have high expectations about can disappoint us, and in its prologue this game had generated, at least in me, very high expectations, given that the premise that the story presents seems tremendously interesting to me, the characters have enough personality and the narrative rhythm does not falter at any time.

So why do I give it such a low rating? Well, because, if we talk about capital sins, the game suffers from the only one that I cannot ignore: treating the protagonist as a puppet at the service of the plot, under a false sense of free will.

In games of this type I can tolerate spelling mistakes (I myself am not an English speaker), I can tolerate images or gifs that do not match 100% with the description of the action (it is very difficult to make an original game when resources are limited)... But for me, the fact that they present the protagonist as a "chosen one" capable of subduing all women, either with his own means (path of love) or with his supernatural gifts (path of corruption) and then it turns out that he is little more than a pet for his female colleagues, it is a red line with which I cannot compromise.

And I am going to give three very specific examples:


In short, the game has a charming story and accomplished characterizations, but if you don't like constantly humiliating a protagonist, who is presented as strong and independent, just for "the sake of the narrative", don't even think about approaching to Seven Sins.

Ok, it is an HTML game, so if you liked other ones, this is in similar vein. What is good, it is different and has good dialog, but has a ton of typos and errors. Honestly if you just read it, you know what they are trying to say. If you paid big dollars for this, maybe you would have a complaint. But the story is unique and fun. I would say the models are fairly similar and the scenes are kinda, what they had, not always in style. But If found it fun. I found it engaging and it was different, though I still went corruption so banged all the ladies. If the starlets are not your style, then skip this game as it is the same ladies. Recommend for folks who liked other HTML games like this such as collegedaze or secrettaboo

The overall format's good, and the CG's are well-chosen, but unfortunately 'Lianland' is making an HTML-based game. In other words, the game is incredibly text-heavy, and the text is the worst part of this game. Seven Sins desperately needs a proof-reader to go through and fix the absolute mess. Grammar problems, spelling mistakes...even ignoring that, the writing style matches a 15-year-old with a semester's worth of HTML classes under their belt. Every other page is "insert generic pop culture reference here". There's a solid foundation here, but unfortunately if this is just being made by one person, it's not gonna get much better.

first game I've played that is on the level of College Daze. Great work!

Characters are interesting, gameplay is very simple with a lot of text and few choices which makes each choice feel more meaningful

As of Ch2 v1.3:
Surprisingly good.

Both the introduction and the early parts of Ch1 are a bit wonky. But after those, the game picks up, the writing find it's pace and style and the story starts to actually go interesting places.
The characters are... fine. Some are pretty good, some are kinda bland, I found a few annoying. There are a lot of characters, tho, keeping track of them becomes a chore, especially since some of them look too much alike.
The MC... the MC is kinda dumb. Sadly there is no way around it. Not the sharpest tool in the box. Still, it kinda works, after the first few in-game days it didn't bother me.

My main complaint is how often characters change when it's obvious the dev uses stuff from different points in their career. It can be jarring and confusing.
My secondary complaint is that the story would have benefited by a tad more serious tone, but that's just my preference.

I liked it and I recommend it, one of the better/best real porn games around.

So, yeah, the Engrish (or, perhaps, Spanglish?) in this game is off-putting. But you get the gist of what the dev is trying to say. Dev, find an English editor! There are any number of literate wankers out there that'll do it for free.

The story is good but a mixed bag. There are way too many characters, enough so that many of them are "Oh, I forgot to write something for this character on this day, three-sentence BJ" affairs. The actual reason a lot of people will play this (incest) is given relatively short shrift, at least compared to the rest of the relationships. But at least we're not tortured with the same-ol' "peek on them in the shower," "jerk off on their sleeping face," "buy a spy camera and install it in your sister's bedroom," etc. nonsense. Some story parts are fleshed out and satisfying; others are clearly, I don't know, the dev equivalent of grinding?

After everything is said and done, it's what the dev doesn't do that makes this story rise above the norm. The game appears like a sandbox sometimes without actually being one. The plot is linear, but there are enough choices and branches to keep you guessing, and there is no grinding. The one place where it's "free roam" is a kinda waste. It's just an excuse to cue up every character that hasn't had something specifically written for them on that day to interact with. You know, the typical HJ→BJ→sex progression. I would rather have had fewer characters with more time devoted to each.

The "art" is, well, the standard stolen porn pics and vids. But mostly not ripped off assets from other Twine games, so there's that.

With a lot of polish (and editing!) this could end up being a great game. So, 4 stars for effort and originality.

In a world, where 95% of HTML real porn games are a bunch of simple links with two lines of text and a random video clip glued to them, this one shines. And when you take into consideration it's only been in development for a few months, it shines even brighter.

The premise is not only there (again, 95% of those doesn't even have that), but it's also interesting and makes you actually want to keep reading (unless you're a hardcore grammar nazi). The cast is great, media selection is solid, I can't wait to see where this project is heading to.

Oh, and the dev seems to be actively listening to feedback and making adequate corrections to the work's course with every update. You have a real gem in your hands my guy, don't waste it.

Combining both the potential for growth and current content (v 1.3), it's an easy 5*

Great Game. Similar to College Daze in some ways but more linear and easier to wrap you head around, but with comparable different ways to change the characters and excellent writing. Most games of this type are just clicking to get to videos of sex i couldve just watched, but this one really is great.

Disclosure: At the time of writing I have only played through the corruption route. I can't imagine that what I like and dislike about the game will be vastly different between routes so I'm not going to wait to review it.

This game is in dire need of a native English speaking editor.

That being said this game is a bit of a breath of fresh air. Too many html games and real porn games fall into the trap of either withholding sexual content for some retarded reason or being a glorified slideshow of gifs and webms. Seven Sins however does not scrimp on the "content" and there is more than enough meat between them to make things interesting.

The story is solidly written and interesting, syntax errors notwithstanding. If you can't quickly parse poorly translated sentences then you should probably wait for a better edited version, but if like me you have a lot of experience reading through machine-translated VNs you should be able to muscle through with few issues. Fair warning however, there is a lot, and I truly mean a lot, of text to read. I happen to like a lot of story and set-up in these games so I don't mind, but a single route is about the length of a moderate-length novella and by the time the game is finished I wouldn't be surprised if both main routes are the length of an epic poem from antiquity.

As for characters themselves it's somewhat of a mixed bag, which I'll chalk up to personal tastes. Lust, being the main character, gets the most dialogue and thankfully she is by far the most interesting. As for the rest of the cast it can be hit and miss. Some are quite interesting (for a porn game) while some I feel are redundant or otherwise unneeded. That said even the characters I don't necessarily like are usually not around long enough to bore me or are still just interesting enough to continue to hold my attention.

Now for complaints. The first is down to personal preference, but I feel like there are way too many characters. I understand this is a harem game, but I feel as though writing can start to suffer for side characters or in the worst case, the main plot and characters in favor of the side character stories. So far the dev has done a very good job of keeping everything balanced, but I do worry about future releases.
The second is obviously the syntax and spelling errors. I understand that the dev is not a native English speaker, but someone with a better understanding of English syntax could elevate this game even higher than it already is.
Third is somewhat minor but the MC will in "scenes" inexplicably become a black man, and then switch back to being white in the same scene. On occasion I've noticed multiple MC race swaps in the same scene. It's very disorienting and immersion breaking .

All that said, the game is very good. There are some very obvious improvements that should be made moving forward, but the groundwork is extremely solid and as long as the dev doesn't fumble the bag I see potential for an all time great game.

Right now it's an easy 8/10 with potential for a perfect 10/10.

This is a 0.1 release... with 732K word total. Some Choice of Games game don't even have that many word count.

But the game itself isn't bad at all. Sure, there are grammar mistakes here and there, but it's very readable and doesn't impact the experience at all. In a sense, I might actually prefer this over College Daze, but only because that game is crazy complicated. This one's a lot more linear, but as a result doesn't give you choice paralysis or story fatigue. I've been playing this for days at my own pace and words cannot describe how satisfying it is to click what looks like a final checkpoint, and finding that it is not.

I'm especially curious about the endings, because it looks like you can get a satisfying conclusion out of most of them. The game is mostly vanilla (relatively speaking), and the dark choices aren't even close to being as dark as say College Daze, but I'm pretty sure most pu- I mean people are fine with that.

Finally, I don't mind this being released once every few months at all. I like that I don't play like 30 minutes and then hit a final checkpoint, or being stalled by mini games that are ultimately meaningless. If I have to wait half a year or even a year so that the author can plop another 700k words, I'll happily wait for it. This 0.1 release is practically a full game and a half already.

The story premise is fun and enjoyable, but poorly written in so many ways. There are so many misused/missing words, weirdly written sentences, bad punctuation and just strange or incorrect phrases. The prologue was pretty well written overall, but after the prologue I was convinced that the writer isn't a native English speaker. Regardless a proof reader would go a long way to making this a great story.

As is, it's so jarring that I just ended up skipping most of the dialogue after the first day or two post prologue. Which is a shame considering how enjoyable the story is when I wasn't skipping past it.

I must say. WHAT. A. GAME. Great flow, wild and proper story-making. You sir are a star. I am really enjoying the protagonist's move into darker and darker paths - i hope you are planning on expanding it further and further. Overall a seriously enjoyable game with A LOT of content.

Great game offers an enthralling experience. Its well-crafted storyline and clever design choices engage players at every turn. A delightful interactive journey that showcases remarkable potential – a definite must-play for fans of narrative-driven games!

Amazing work of art! This is a true CYOA novel. Can not wait to see more. The story is good, the pacing is good. Great selection of videos and placement of them. Hope the next chapter is just as good.

quite wordy not for a drunk wank, abundance of quality pics fun plot. Plus aidra fox is always a win in my books. keep it up dev pretty good writting. noticed a typo : kyler looking at the "cellar" when u wake up with your sister and her friend.

Came for the porn, stayed for the plot. The funny moments actually made me laugh. The characters grow on you- especially Lust.

Only possible complaint I'd have is that the pathways are a bit too linear. I think there should be more ambiguity between Love or Corruption pathways- not that there isn't already some, but I'd like to see it be more impactful.
