Questions you might have if you're interested in playing it:
What is it exactly that you do in the game?
It’s a visual novel where you click on stuff, read dialogue, make decisions over random choices which may sometimes pop-out on the screen, explore locations and, believe it or not, fight in turn-based battles and engage in many diverse mini-games… Obviously you have your sex scenes, but most of the time you don’t have any input as a player.
Will it make my eyes bleed?
It mostly looks great. The models are detailed and high res, the environments are not too detailed but overall okay, and the animations for the sex scenes are made with care and love. I can appreciate how much care the devs invested on the sex animations, the jiggle physics are fantastic.
Does it have a good story?
It’s surprisingly great! The story deals with themes of drug abuse, abusive relationships and toxic friendships in a somewhat mature manner. I’m not going to say that his game is a masterpiece that will make you change your life, but for a NSFW game it is one of the best that I had experienced so far. I like the personality of some of the characters and for me that is something worth praising.
Does it have a good soundtrack?
It's fine. What matters for a good soundtrack of a game is to enhance the gameplay and the story. The OST for this game kind of does that, but not particularly well. The best thing that I can say about it is that it didn’t annoy me but I don’t like it. Again it’s fine.
Does it have replay value?
CK2 lets you replay the NSFW scenes from a menu in the title screen. You have multiple NCPs that you can romance, with meaningful choices that can and will affect what ending you will get. It took me 4 hours to finish this game and I can easily see myself investing another 5 or 6 more in order to unlock everything.
Does it run well?
Besides a random crash that I got on my first boot and how the achievements didn’t work for me I had not experienced a single technical issue. It runs flawlessly.
Is it fun?
As someone that doesn’t really like the visual novel genre, I enjoyed this game. It’s engaging and the NSFW bits are great.
So what is College Kings 2 - Act I?
It’s a fun lewd game about sexy adventures in college with a decent story and enjoyable characters. Something that took me off guard was the turn-based battle that I encountered. I'm not sure if it is something that exists in a single scenario behind the particular choices that I made, but that is a perfect example for what I like about this game. There is a good amount of interesting and honestly great little details that elevates this game over the trappings of the visual novel genre.
As for the NSFW part of this game. You have slideshows and animations for sex scenes. The animations in CK2 are 4 to 10 seconds loops that are sublime. The way in which the characters move is realistic and fluid. I particularly enjoy how they animated the boob physics, this is for me what makes or breaks NSFW games and this game passes with honors this test.
I love how at the start of the game you can choose what characters you want to romance from a pool of preselected characters. This changes your story because from what I understood replaying the game a bit, each character has their own arc and personality. This is something amazing and I wish more NSFW visual novels would implement this feature. It’s great!
Is this game worth my hard earned money?
It’s a great NSFW game with a decent story, great mini-games and fantastic sex animations. My only complaints are that the setting is way too generic for me to fully enjoy, it has some filler that I didn’t enjoy and sometimes the faces of the models look uncanny.
Rating: 8/10
By far the best NSFW visual novel game that I have ever played.
