I finished playing this game late last night and I loved it! I went in with few expectations and I ended up liking it way more than I thought I would. The writing is wonderful and I liked the characters. I ended up being emotionally invested in the story partly because of all the choices the game gave me. I'll definitely be playing the other routes!
I have to say I absolutely loved your story. I am very excited for your future work; you definitely pulled at my emotions throughout the whole story line.
I have played this game at least three times now, and I never tire of the characters and their story. I love Aloners and have also fallen in love with this game, as well. Your writing style is so engaging and full of emotions that stay with me long after I've finished playing your games. It's so nice to have a visual novel that is written for women that want more substance and mature themes in a romance or otome VN. I enjoyed the complicated relationship between the MC and Ran, as well as all the interesting lore in this world you have created. I can't wait to play more routes and to learn more about the rest of the characters and the world they live in!
Oh, wow, thank you! This is an incredible compliment, and I'm grateful that you took the time to write it. And it's wonderful to hear that you've enjoyed playing and re-playing multiple times. I'm so glad!
I really enjoyed Aloners ! so I'm looking forward this game (σ･з･)σ~ I don't know if is only me or whatever , but I can't buy it :c This game is gonna be on steam ?? >> English is not my native language. :$
Just finished this and loved it! Like many others, I had played Aloners, and ever since playing it, it has been one of my top favorite VNs. I had always hoped there would be more to come from you as your writing and games are amazing, and now Wilder is at the top of my favorites list as well! Ran was an amazing character, and I could feel every emotion as if I was really there myself. I love how your games draw us in. It's perfect!
Loving everything so far, and I look forward to Bahadur's story along with anything else you come out with in the future! :)
I've stumbled onto this little gem while looking for VNs geared more towards women (and procrastinating on uni work), and I thought I'd take the time to let you know that I really enjoyed playing through your game. I really liked the setting, which is quite different from what I usually come across. I'm glad you're planning to release more routes/stories set in this world, because I feel like there's still lots to explore (I found e.g. the heartseers very interesting, or the sociopolitical issues behind abolishing slavery in name but not in practice). Definitely keeping an eye out for your future work!
Thank you so much for taking the time to write this comment. Can't tell you how much I appreciate it! There are definitely a lot of different aspects of the world still to be explored, so I hope you enjoy the upcoming stories as well.
So far only Ran's route has been released. Bahadur is next followed by Amir then Royo and then Jamal I believe, but no release date for any of them. Here's the forum if you're interested (has a progress report and info on the routes): https://lemmasoft.renai.us/forums/viewtopic.php?t=35528
Hope that helped, I'm really looking forward to the other routes as well. (^-^)
Hi, for some reason I can't send a mail so I'll just be writing here. The game won't start... Up pops a message that says: Could not execute , then it point to where Wilder_Ran.exe is supposed to be and says: Is it missing?
Hi there. This is a (sadly) not uncommon problem that some people have with games made in Ren'Py.
Usually it is the user's antivirus program falsely assuming the .exe is malicious and deleting it when you extract the files from the .zip. I'd suggest that you tinker with your antivirus so that it understands the .exe file is not malicious, or else disable it just until you've extracted the files from the .zip.
This is an absolutely fantastic game! There were so many moments where I thought "I hope this will happen", and then it did. And I agree with another commenter about being able to play the protag's personality like I wanted to, without ever feeling like I was risking the good ending for it. Thanks so much for such a fun, wonderful story, and I look forward to playing more games from you in the future! ♥
I loved everything about this game and all the work and love you put in it. I will definitely buy all the other routes, but don't forget to take care of yourself!
The creator's Tumblr was recently updated. There were some unforeseen issues irl, but she is working on the game almost everyday and it will be released asap.
Loved this game. Can't wait to play the next routes. On another note, I was unable to comment on Aloners after playing it along time ago so just want to say that it was one of the best games I have played too.
This game is amazing! I absolutely love it! I can't wait for the next installment. I enjoyed the writing so much; you had my stomach tied in knots many times wondering if I did the right thing. And best of all, I felt I could be the heroine I wanted to be without being penalized and forced to play a certain way. It's a truly organic experience--so natural and so enjoyable. Thank you!
Thank you! It's such an important part of the games I write, that players feel like they have agency without being punished, so I'm very glad that you felt like you could be the heroine you wanted to be.
I seriously loved Ran. The second I saw him I knew I had to play this game. I wasn't really sure if I was making the right choices and was scared I would get a bad ending or something but I didn't. I was able to stay true to myself in the choices and get a good ending and that was nice. And to be honest, I don't even care if he is a "monster," I just want to squeeze him so tight. He was exactly the type that I love going after in these types of games. And his story was so amazing and sad. Actually, I really loved the entire story and the only parts I had problems with was literally because I felt like I was going to lose him, which is amazing that the story managed to make me feel so strongly. And I could literally feel the sexual tension between him and the main girl. So good. I don't know if I will be able to get over the feeling of being attached to him...uggggghh his personality and looks left a lasting impression on me.
I'm so glad I decided to buy this. And I am so glad this was created! Thank you for this masterpiece!
I'm so glad that you loved him! And thank you for writing this comment. I can't tell you how much I appreciate knowing that you enjoyed this story the way you did.
The game was AMAZING!! I loved every bit of!! tbh, my friend lent it to me first and I just couldn't live not having my own version of this!! THANK YOU VERY MUCH <3
I bought this and absolutely love it! If you are after some solid characterisation, interesting premises, romance, angst and HEA OR bittersweet ending def recommend.
I enjoyed Ran's route so much, the art is soooo gorgeous, and I loved the fact that you could pick which rating you wanted, I picked mature of course but it was still nice to have the choice. I can't wait for Bahadur route, ugh I enjoyed Wilder soo much. Also I hope there's epilogues for all the routes released. I'm dying to get a glimpse into how Ran and the mc fare.
I'm glad that you liked the Teen/Mature choice. The best of both worlds, right?
Bahadur's Story will be next, so I hope you enjoy that. And there will be epilogues for all characters included in the full version of Wilder, to be released after the individual routes are done.
I think they're attending to family matters and will let us know from their dev. blog when they're back? Although I believe last they posted they would still release Bahadour sometime this month even with the delays
OH. MY. FUCKING. GOD! THIS WAS AWESOME! LOVED EVERY MINUTE. HAD ME BREATHLESS, ON THE EDGE OF MY SEAT. CRYING, IT ALL! THANK YOU SO MUCH! more please :D
I don't know where to start... This game was so beautiful in every way. The characters are all well designed and I couldn't help it but feel their emotions. And the story is just wonderful. I cried at the end lmao this was so touching my heart couldn't take it. This game is without a doubt in my top 3. Anyway, great job !
A great story. I loved Ran, I almost don't want to play the other stories yet to be released. The characters and world building had great depth, so my resistance will likely be futile. :P The other reviewers have said it all. I look forward to playing the rest of the games.

I really enjoyed Aloners ! so I'm looking forward this game (σ･з･)σ~
I don't know if is only me or whatever , but I can't buy it :c This game is gonna be on steam ?? >> English is not my native language. :$
I'm not sure why you're not able to buy Ran's Story. I haven't had any other reports of purchasing issues. Sorry I can't help with that.
There are no current plans to release Wilder on Steam, but that may change in the future.
hi are the other routes still being made or is the project no longer on going?
Unfortunately delayed (no duh, right?) but very much in progress!
Congrats on the game,you've done an amazing job! :)
Thank you! :-D

So how many routes are available now? Im interested with the other Djinns xD
So far only Ran's route has been released. Bahadur is next followed by Amir then Royo and then Jamal I believe, but no release date for any of them. Here's the forum if you're interested (has a progress report and info on the routes): https://lemmasoft.renai.us/forums/viewtopic.php?t=35528

It works! Hallelujah, and thanks a lot for the help ^^
You're welcome! :-) I hope you enjoy!
love the game just wondering if there's another one coming out soon, and if so, do you have any idea when
Thanks! Another route is upcoming. No release date (to avoid any more disappointment).

Aw, thank you. :-) I'm so happy that you enjoyed it!
(Sorry for the late reply!)
Wow! I loved it! I felt as though I became apart of that story. Looking forward to any other games you got like this!

Oh man, if only this were on steam, then I could buy it!!
Sorry! :-/ No immediate plans to make this available on Steam. Hopefully one day, but until then itch.io is the only place to buy Wilder: Ran's Story.
I seriously loved Ran. The second I saw him I knew I had to play this game. I wasn't really sure if I was making the right choices and was scared I would get a bad ending or something but I didn't. I was able to stay true to myself in the choices and get a good ending and that was nice. And to be honest, I don't even care if he is a "monster," I just want to squeeze him so tight.

You can download the demo from the official page. :-)
The game was AMAZING!! I loved every bit of!! tbh, my friend lent it to me first and I just couldn't live not having my own version of this!! THANK YOU VERY MUCH <3
waiting for the other guys to be released
Thank you for purchasing! I'm really glad that you enjoyed Ran's Story.
I need more of this! It was spellbinding!!!
I'm so glad you enjoyed it. :-) More is on the way!
I bought this and absolutely love it! If you are after some solid characterisation, interesting premises, romance, angst and HEA OR bittersweet ending def recommend.
Thank you so much! I'm glad that you enjoyed it. :-)
But like? Where is the gallery? Is missing?
The gallery's only going to be in the full version with all the routes in it
Thanks!
I enjoyed Ran's route so much, the art is soooo gorgeous, and I loved the fact that you could pick which rating you wanted, I picked mature of course but it was still nice to have the choice. I can't wait for Bahadur route, ugh I enjoyed Wilder soo much. Also I hope there's epilogues for all the routes released. I'm dying to get a glimpse into how Ran and the mc fare.

Yay I'm absolutely ecstatic, also I hope everything is all right with your family:)
omg i can't wait to see ran again
Yay it means we will get to see him againxD
I can't wait for Bahadur, seriously the wait is killllllling me. So close yet so far TTnTT
Haha! I know it's a long wait. He won't be ready for April, but soon. Hang in there!
Good story! I hope we get to see more of Bahadur.
Bahadur's Story is next to be released, actually. :-)
I can't stop thinking about this game. It was amazing. Any estimation on when another route will be getting close to being out?
I think they're attending to family matters and will let us know from their dev. blog when they're back? Although I believe last they posted they would still release Bahadour sometime this month even with the delays
Thanks! I will look for their dev. page. :( I hope everything goes okay for them. :(
OH. MY. FUCKING. GOD! THIS WAS AWESOME! LOVED EVERY MINUTE. HAD ME BREATHLESS, ON THE EDGE OF MY SEAT. CRYING, IT ALL! THANK YOU SO MUCH! more please :D
LOL! Thank you so much! (And more is a-comin'...)
SO SOOOOOO excited!
This game was such a delight! Loved every minute of it. <3
I'm glad! Thanks. :-)
I don't know where to start... This game was so beautiful in every way. The characters are all well designed and I couldn't help it but feel their emotions. And the story is just wonderful. I cried at the end lmao this was so touching my heart couldn't take it. This game is without a doubt in my top 3.
Anyway, great job !
Aw, wow, thank you so much!
A great story. I loved Ran, I almost don't want to play the other stories yet to be released. The characters and world building had great depth, so my resistance will likely be futile. :P The other reviewers have said it all. I look forward to playing the rest of the games.
Thank you so much! :-)
