Even though, according to the title it will be a step brother or step father and it won't quench any thirst.
This may have a chance to be decent or even good after addressing several glaring issues. Already better than 90% of the titles on F95Zone (which isn't saying much since there's so much bad out there).
Two major issues stick out at me already in this very short update.
#1. Is this even really a game? There are zero choices so far. (Adding a "have sex/don't" which basically amounts to a scene selector won't count either, though this release doesn't even have that yet). There is absolutely no agency for the user which means no immersion or investment. After the first few minutes, I just *click-click-clicked* through as fast as possible, already bored. The writing is by no means strong enough to stand on its own. While the same goes for the vast majority of the games on this site (this is comparatively on the better end), they at least have choices (beyond just "sex or don't") to keep the user invested. You'd need to bring in a brilliant TV-level writer to get away with a no-choices VN, which I doubt will happen. An array of choices are desperately needed. (It doesn't have to go overboard like the game I mention in the next point does. But you need frequent life and dialogue choices beyond sex for this to hold much interest).
#2. The color-scheme, menu design, tone of the music, the general style: You don't want to come off as an Our Red String copycat. But that's exactly what this looks like, only without any choices, dialogue or personal agency. I assume this is the dev's first game and based on what I've seen so far, they're not going to hit ORS quality without a lot more skill development, experience and effort. Best to stray from ORS stylistically (art is fine, I'm talking menus, color scheme, ect, even down to similar intro music) or this will just be seen as a cheap knockoff.
I do like the scenario and general gist of where it's going, story-wise. But this one's otherwise going to need a lot of consideration, work and redirection to hold any interest.
Way too early for a review as this game may get there with the right effort. So I'm posting here instead of the review section.

The next update for the game will make or break it. A few to many blank screens in the last update but it is still in prestory, intro mode, so see how it goes. Defining the MC has been done very well and looking forward to what happens next makes it a thriller. Has great potential and that's why I am supporting it.
No. Creator is definitely using the 2d tracing method that both Basilicata (TTPS) and EvaKiss (Good Girl Gone Bad, Our Red String) use in their games. Dev is definitely influenced by Our Red String based on the menu color/font scheme and intro music choice (both a bit too close for comfort right now, sorry to say). Just without any of the numerous choice/pathing options ORS is known for (the best element of EvaKiss' games). Hopefully all that will change.

Just played through the update and not too hopeful on my personal interest, tbh.
1. Still no paths/choices. Just a bunch more text to click through. Biggest sore point.
2. H-how could male protagonist have a growth spurt... in college? (Both in height and... penis size? Like, I mean a very significant one). The medical community would be baffled and he'd likely be hooked up to tubes and monitors for serious scientific evaluation. Is.. is this a sci-fi now? I've heard of a "second puberty" in a metaphorical/comical sense to describe some sort of mid-life crisis behavior-wise. But never a physical one. lol. Wow. Baffled.
3. Due to #2, the most appealing and unique aspect of the game for me so far, beyond the appealing art and general story concept, has now been eliminated. There are a variety of games out there in the sexually insatiable wife/girlfriend category, involving an attractive nympho cheating on the male love interest due to a helpless sex addiction. But inevitably, that male love interest is nearly always in one of two categories:
A. Some pathetic schlep, physically or otherwise, who no reasonable person would ever imagine in their wildest dreams would be going out with the female protagonist. Entirely implausible to the point of breaking immersion and losing any interest.
B. A perfect physical match for the female protag: Tall, muscular, big dick. Successful in their professional life as well. Where the F protag... just happens to be a big slut, too. Typically boring, without much oomph.
Up until this update, what held my interest in potential future developments was in deviation of the typical #3. That very rare but plausible 3C situation in this wayward-girlfriend/nympho-wife category where the male protagonist is attractive, intelligent and has a lot to offer the 10/10 female protagonist in the way of love, support and generally great relationship material... despite coming up a bit short in several categories where her instinctual physical desires overpower her love and reason. Basically the male protag had that rare and perfect look up until this update for that scenario. Attractive. Plausibly "cute" enough to women to gain a very attractive woman's interest and then maintain it through a great emotional connection where both partners just happen to "click" right. But... maybe not physically imposing or endowed enough to keep such a 10/10 nympho's carnal desires 100% satiated in the bedroom. He was basically a 7/10 physically till now. Good looking but much less muscular, of average height to slightly shorter than average, and a smaller than average but not comically tiny cock.
The element of a 7/10 trying to keep a 10/10 through their deep emotional bonds and the 10/10 struggling not to let nature and her carnal desires get the better of her could've added a lot more spice and impact to their story. But it looks like the dev had 2nd thoughts and maybe a lack of confidence, deciding to pull a 180 there and provide the typical 3B scenario.
The non-existent choices in this game so far and the knock-off ORS menu/text style are still the biggest sore points for me that need improving. But with the male LI's baffling physical change, the story so far has lost any potential uniqueness as well, not to mention such a change at that age being pretty weird and implausible scientifically, in and of itself.

As a art work yes .. it have potential ,but the storry is more like a cheap manga/hentai , no character development ...no choices ,force NTR.... (to dev) if the game point is all about a cheating woman then do some actually reason why she do it , and not just wake up one day and feels like f..k everything ....i know is a game but females are not like that dude. Like i said the art is there but the story it self need some working , and if you can give choices in game to the players will be wonderful. Cheers .

I think everything up until now has just been the intro, basically giving you backstory for the characters, and the next update will be where the choices kick in. Like there will probably be the choice to join your husband in that room or go and have sex with his boss somewhere elseJust played through the update and not too hopeful on my personal interest, tbh.
