Under Control -v0.1.22a- By Slusiom Here

Slusiom uses a realistic 3D render style (likely Daz3D) with a muted, slightly desaturated color palette. This isn’t the bright, glossy world of Being a DIK ; it’s closer to the shadowy interiors of Depraved Awakening or Pale Carnations . Lighting is used masterfully—deep shadows, single-lamp desk scenes, silhouettes in doorways. The renders are consistently high-resolution, with only minor stiffness in facial expressions (a common engine limitation).

Under Control -v0.1.22A- is a diamond in the rough—sharp-edged, dark, and highly promising. It respects your intelligence by not rushing its kinks, and it respects the genre by treating control as a process, not a button. The current build will leave you wanting more, but that’s a sign of effective writing, not frustration.

The UI is clean and minimalist: dark greys, small fonts, and a sandbox-style map that lets you choose your next action (eavesdrop, patrol, “invite,” etc.). The version number (0.1.22A) suggests iterative refinement, and indeed, I encountered no major bugs or broken paths. The music is sparse—mostly low, ambient drones—which amplifies the tension rather than distracting from it.

This is not a game for casual players. Themes include coercion, psychological manipulation, non-explicit but implied duress, and a pervasive atmosphere of unequal power. There is no graphic violence in this build, but the emotional violence is constant. Slusiom does not glorify the actions so much as present them as a disturbing puzzle. If you prefer wholesome or equal-footing relationships, avoid this title. If you appreciate dark fiction that explores why people submit, this will grip you. Slusiom uses a realistic 3D render style (likely

The current version is undeniably a work in progress. You can feel the skeleton of a larger narrative, and some systems are still creaking under their own ambition. However, what is present is polished, atmospheric, and intriguing enough to warrant a serious look from players who enjoy psychological leverage over pure, immediate lewd content.

7.5/10 Potential at full release: 9/10

The writing in v0.1.22A is lean but effective. Slusiom favors implication over exposition. You learn about the characters’ fears, secrets, and desires not through long monologues, but through environmental details, hesitant dialogue, and your own decisions as the player. The main female leads—each with distinct personalities (the cold professional, the fragile dependent, the rebellious wildcard)—react believably to your escalating demands. Their resistance doesn’t vanish overnight, which is the game’s greatest strength.
