Ren'Py - Free Use House [v0.0.6 P1] [Aui]

- v0.0.5
- You REALLY need to be into FreeUse to enjoy this
- Honey Select looking characters and animations are not enough to offset the absence of a story or plot

I really wasn't quite sure how to rate this.

On one hand, there is neither a story nor is there a plot. But the game also never claims to be a Visual Novel, so I can't really count this as a negative. The whole game only makes sense if you're into that Free-Use kink... but I'm really not.

I mean, yeah, I can see why some guys may be into the idea of being allowed to do anything they want to anyone they want. But, actually seeing it play out, this MC is apparently rather bad at it, as all the females he uses just keep on doing whatever they were occupied with before. There is no emotion involved, they rarely react to anything that's done to them, and the thought of sleeping with a woman while she is so unimpressed with me that she starts writing a list for tomorrow's grocery shopping... I think that would kill the mood rather effectively. And my confidence.

So, what this "game" comes down to is a collection of scenes of which most don't even have a proper ending. You just see the MC pound away with no build-up whatsoever, and, when you click your mouse button once, you're back in the sandbox. Now, this might be interesting if a dev wanted to show off their awesome blender skills, or how fluid the animations they can create, or just provide you with senseless eye candy. But, at the end of the day, everything you see is Honey Select stuff. The models are clearly custom-made and not too bad looking, but all the animations are Honey Select Default material, and all the backgrounds and settings are Honey Select standard variety objects and lighting. Nothing new, nothing interesting, nothing I haven't seen in all the other HS games out there already.

And, as disappointing as that already sounds, you have to painstakingly unlock those "scenes" in a sandbox environment with little to no help or guidance.

That's the sole reason I rate the game so low. Not because I'm not into Free Use, not because it's missing a story, but simply because what's in this game feels average. At best.

The game has potential but as 0.0.4, its still like a early demo to me.

I didnt realize this was same dev as A Milf in Time, it was one of my fave but was sad to see it abandoned. . Glad to see this project rekindle his fire for making AVNs

The best part of the games is the models and the animations. Its hard to believe this is Ren'py & and the animations are really fluid. I like the aspect of the sandbox but the game feels bare without a story. There are quests but it looks its still in development.

I'll def visit after some updates.

Gotta rate this just to remind myself I've played it mostly. At v0.0.4, things are still pretty similar to how the game started (which was a great start imo, but I don't notice a ton of difference since personally). This game is specifically built with a single kink in mind - I don't believe I'm violating any rules in talking about that quite a bit since it is literally what this game is about: free use. Hell, it's in the title.

Your opinions on this game will largely depend on how you feel about free use. I am pretty indifferent about it, hence my 3 star rating. Technologically speaking, the game is probably at or above average - the game goes through a time cycle, but it's fiddly. There are many locations, and going anywhere at your home is easy today, but going to the city is fiddly. There are a lot of scenes available, no real need to grind for any of them (if there were a shit ton of scenes, that would be really cool imo - today there is a healthy amount but not a shit ton, so the ease of access to all these scenes makes the game feel brief). Artistically speaking, things are fine - I find both the primary women (sister, mother) attractive.

I really think the game can only go up from here unless the dev does something drastically stupid, so we'll see how it goes, but I'm not sure if it will ever go up enough for me to give it more stars or not.

Delivers what the title says, theres are much to improve like the sounds, and the animations ,the models are well done but can be improved too, so i will keep watch for the future updates. Good luck dev.

As a concept of the game, you should have the power to do what you like. You know, "Free Use".
Then there is Slena Star. Her content is forced.
(Technical you can choose not to view her content, but you don't expect that she is not Free use material and rapes( I mean Free Uses) you)

The Rest is Ok. The other Kinks are nice and fitting in.
It's missing some sort of story. This is not a game or a Novel.

In the end, a pretty shallow experience. Maybe the foundation is here, but I expected more at this stage.

There is a lack of Erotic. The Porn is not exciting.

Animation: Different from the usual,
Story: Not really a story more of an experience
Scripting: Satisfactory
Love the concept, hope to see more developments in the future because right now there is still much to expand on. I might give this some time to develop and mature and see where it's at in a few months

v0.0.4

I would call this maybe a quarter of a game.

Setting / Environment: 4/5

Models: 4.5/5

Animation: 4/5

Sex: 2/5 (not long enough, most dont have cum ending, but they'r well animated and tasteful otherwise...)

Grind: 2/5 (grind is just finding scenes, which is easy. Thats actually all there is to the game so far)

Gameplay: 3/5 (easy, instant satisfaction. if satisfied that is)

Story/Plot: 0/5 (There is none.)

Characters: 1/5 (Some dialogue. Some.)

Enjoyment: 2/5

This is more or less an unfinished scene viewer at the moment. If it develops into a VN with a story, it could be good.
I particularly liked the cop scene. That was really the only well made scene.

Do I recommend it?
No, not in its current state. Come back when it has triple or more of the content it has now. Particularly story, as it feels very hollow right now.

It pretty much feels like imported animations/renders from HS played around the house. There is no story, things just happen.
As already mentioned in some reviews, those scenes aren't even completed. Only in a few there is the cum option.

At least it is not using those standard animations loops with exaggerated faces, etc. That's a good point.
It did a good job on porting from HS, it keeps the image quality really high. But that's about it. That problem with the way it presents the 'game' right now is that you kinda would be better fiddling with HS directly.

There is, though, a good foundation if in the future there is development to get into the free use. I'd say a bit of attention in that regard would increase this game score by a lot. Right now you just check where LIs are and pass time to check for new positions/places to see a small animation.

So, overall:
images = great, good port from HS.
animations = good, at least not using those weird ones from HS xD
Story = non existent (and why would you want a story in a free use game? well, bcz otherwise why would I be here and not on HS?)
sound = lacking. would really improve the experience.
Gameplay = simple, too simple even. Could be improved to avoid making the game boring too fast
Grind = non existent!

VERY VERY impressive animations.

but other than a select handful of animations, non of the others have a climax scene.

the rest of the scenes dont have much variety to them, and the sandbox almost feels as if its there for novelty reasons, rather than it suiting to the games vision.

theres nothing really to do, not much reason to explore, and not much to offer atm. i explored the content in 10 minutes.

star knocked off due to most of the scenes not having climax scenes, and also no sex SFX either.

star knocked off for just how minimal there is to do, with a sandbox feature that doesnt really serve much of a purpose atm. sure youve got like three people in the city to do one scene with, and then the celeb. but after that theres no reason to go to the city. theres no reason to really alter the times, other than the limited two party cast of characters that go into different rooms. theres just nothing to do, no sound, no climax scenes, so it doesnt really give you a happy ending either FOR THE MOST PART. theres a few blowjob and mostly handjob scenes that have a climactic end. other than that nothing.

the scenes are super detailed, really well animated. the models are very detailed, quite impressed with the level of detail they have, and the variety in the ironically lack of variety of cast members. however the minimal cast on offer, least they dont ALL have watermelon tits. could be good, like the idea, but theres nothing to do, the scenes arent complete with a climax either, theres no real reason to go to the city, and little reason to play past the ten minutes of content it has.

however, i can certainly see this becoming 4 stars, and if sound and the other suggestions are added. then five!

bonus: add trap characters. trans, etc

Amazing game!
Easy accessable scenes, top tier animations, no long grinding sessions.
Only caveat I have with the game is no sound.
I don't know why people be asking for a story in a Free-Use Game. There are some quests teased which might add some story in the future? But I don't really care, I'm just here for the animations.
I love the different type of girls in the game already, the mom is not be my type but luckily there are girls for everybodys taste.

Meh, I don't see anything good in this title. Sure I kind of like the premise but there is just nothing here. Its very bare-bones.
There is no story and while it doesn't need one, since its more sandbox, it should have other gameplay elements at the very least.
But like I said nothing there. Characters are made with honey select 2, which is fairly simple to do. Animations are also from honey select 2, areas are also from honey select 2. Its a very cheap game, probably created in less than 3 days.
Many of the girls have an extremely ugly face like Marie. The interface looks nice but that's about it. Also no music and no sound effects for the most part. The game is silent, the girls don't moan, there is no background noise, no music for the most part etc.

lots of potential,I hope the updates are coming soon. love the animations, would like more scenes with existent bystander in town, I hop the quest are good. Here's to hope that game gets completed. Maybe more options would be nice, like skipping dialogues.

[v0.0.3]

I give 4 stars currently because of the concept and the actual H scenes are pretty good. But it's a 4-star rating for a technical demo! It is like 1% of what a game should be.

However it goes, by next major version (0.1.x) there should be some coherent story, the scenes should all be finishable (currently most scenes [inside house] are not finishable -- you just have to cancel them).

For me ideally the MC also should not be a scrawny teenager. Whatever rocks dev's boat, but MC is rather unappealing. He is definitely not a "man of the house", but "kid of the house".

Pros:
- nice genre, freeuse is underutlized
- good models for most part
- good backgrounds

Cons:
- no story yet
- most scenes are not finishable

Thumbs up for dev for doing this, but I wouldn't expect him getting any funding before getting at least some story into the game.

PS. I think dev can safely stop working on animated walking, if this takes too much time. It's a nice extra, but it doesn't make or break game. Finishable scenes and story do.

Fun game as of v0.0.3 it has good sex scenes and very hot characters and very littlegrind but the lack sex sounds kills the atmosphere and makes it feel like a dead game. Imo if they add sex sounds this is a 5 star game

i love the concept of this game, and the art, character models and animations are really good as well. While there are a lot of available scenarios in the game, as whole everything the game has to offer can be seen in a relatively short time. What is in the game is excellent and hope to see more with even more options.

New rating!
The game updates are quite slow, since they don't add much. However, the game's premise is great, and it is refreshingly simple. Too many adult visual novels fail to tell a captivating story. It's mostly just fan-service which is understandable. However, most developers go too far with it. Honestly, some of these games have way too many convoluted storylines. They don't have a right to be this long. In contrast, this game is more like a gallery of different scenes. However, it could use a bit more storyline and dialogue. I'm also not a fan of shotas, but this game is alright.

Great concept, I like the use of animations as well. However, despite my enjoyment of this fetish, without any leadup it is just uninteresting. The player's model, as well as his mom's, are pretty awful as well, though the sister's model is very nice.

Free Use House [v0.0.2f]

Good idea but bad execution is how I would describe this game.
The first issue I see is how bad it runs. It´s so laggy and terribly optimized.
The Character Models all look kinda weird starting with the MC who looks like a kid, to his Mom who looks like an experiment gone wrong.
I wouldn´t even call it a fap game because the sex scenes feel pretty boring.
I don´t see a story here on why the MC can just go to anyone like his family members or a police officer and just fuck them without any explanation.
To me the game just lacks any substance and is just terribly dull.

A true Free Use game, the developer really knows well.
The game doesnt have any bothersome grinding and its all about exploring while fucking, i whould like to prise more the developer and his game but words doesnt come.

The renders are nice, the concept is great, and theres a good bit of exploration. An amazing concept that will be even better once fully fleshed out, definitely give this one a try. Will definitely be looking for more updates.
