VN - Ren'Py - Jeijei's Harem [v0.12] [JeijeiFin Games]

To be honest I'm not into vanilla games, but dat doesn't means I can't enjoy vanilla games.
Maybe it's just me, but I like to give honest reviews............ok let start.
First of all I would like to start with Protagonist, MC is really a submissive type not too much but he's lil bit submissive, like typical MC he's a weak/wimpy-ass and sometimes he behaves like a simp my words is gonna be harsh but I'm telling what is truth, MC can't even save his own girl to the opposite his girl save his ass but it's pretty common now many people never bother by this but it's bother me a lot, MC should have a decent personality, I'm not saying he should be a badass, who can knock out professional fighters with just one punch I'm not saying this at all, if you're gonna add some action scene gives MC a decent level of strength so he can save his girl, there's a lot of faults in MC I'm not gonna mention all the faults.
2nd it's doesn't matters what you choose in da end dialogue doesn't change more like kinetic novel not totally but it's more similar to kinetic novel.
3rd Almost every character looks emotionless without any emotions on face it's feel like we're reading Comics not an AVN.
4th Immature and cringey dialogues "Ada:- I'm not blushing am I?
MC:- unfortunately you're" I mean like what da fuck? This type of dialogue is too cringey and dramatic.
All the girls look ok, music is ok too and animation too, some scenes doesn't make sense at all, some tags is missing like Rape, Female Domination.........over all dats all I have to say, i can even write an essay how many faults this game have, but I have read many comments dev-kun have a decent amount of people who like this game, all I can say this game is not my cup of tea anyway Good luck.

Kinda a weird start where story dosent really line up with the choices you make, i never flirted with Ada and also picked no to her route, yet the very next day MC talks about it being bad that Ada saw him and Lizzie kissing since hes been flirting with both girls which just isent true and it sounds like a big deal which is a bit stupid, also not really sure why MC feels the need to explain anything to Ada.

Its very simple which some might see as good but to me its just to simple so it becomes boring, dialogs arent helping either you dont really build in emotions for the LIs and the story is very vanilla, and some part is just plain idiotic, like MC asking Ada to record him and lizza to have sex??? i mean why, i am not on Adas path and why would he want her there at all, if he wanted to record it put the phone somewhere and let it record....not that it makes any sense at all for Lizzie to make a porn video considering shes only just done her first kiss.....game is like watching a really bad porn movie.

Also when you turn down someones path it dosent really make sense to keep getting choices to flirt with them, there are also alot of single choices which is kinda pointless and 2 choices that has the same result which again feels pointless.

Another weird thing is that LIs you closed the route with still do things like walking into your bed room and touch your dick which feels off when you arent on their route, feels like game is ment to be played by saying yes to everyone.

MC is a bit submissive, i know hes not supposed to be the strong type, but last i checked there is no femdom tag but there is a male dom tag maybe they put in the worng one.
I mean when MC is telling Liz no to let her talk to hes boss then she forces him to do it anyway is stupid, even more so since its yet another one of those 2 choices yes/no where both leads to the same results, it really just is a kinetic storyline, and this seems to be a constant thing doing the game, later your asked if you want to do more porn videos and when you say no Liz again changes MCs mind to a yes its just really annoying and choices has 0 effect making it pure kinetic and idiotic to even put in the choices...

Also for some reason everyone seem to be BI or lesbians, i am not really a fan of that in any way.

Dialogs are a bit to weird as well, MC sleeping with hes head on a girls lap that hes known for a day and she wakes him up by saying "i am naked lick my pussy" and "i dont mind your head being this close to my pussy" it just feels a bit cringy to me, and theres no depth to the story or LIs.

There is no real romance or build-up, so just pick yes or no to who you want a relationship with and it wont be long untill you fuck her.

Girls are ok, but they dident really catch my taste with them, maybe its the lack of emotions on their faces but it all just feels meh, the youngest looking one is also a disappointment not just that she looks a bit to young but you can ask her to act like a 13 or 16 year old as well and on top of that shes already fucking her math teacher at school...just to weird for me.

Animations are decent, a bit short but good enough to enjoy.
Music is ok as well.

I don’t like how unrealistic this game is. This company you work for has proper unit tests for the server, they assign tasks correctly to server and UI teams, and have correct procedures for code review and merge requests? That would never happen in the real world.

All in all, this is a pretty standard “guy moves in with cute girls and immediately starts romantic and sexual relationships with every single one of them” type of game. That isn’t necessarily a bad thing: sometimes all you want is a relaxing game about having a life that doesn’t suck, and this one definitely fits the bill. The characters don’t have a lot of depth and personality beyond a single sentence description of who they are, and there isn’t really a lot going on with the plot, or any real goal in the distance that the plot is moving towards, it’s just the daily life of these characters. I do appreciate the game offering a screen showing a summary of the decisions made in that day/chapter, that’s a great point to save your game so next update you can quickly remember where you were.

What I would say is a negative aspect is how bland the visuals are. The characters are very basic, poses are often incredibly robotic and emotionless, and there’s barely any resemblance of lighting done to the environments. I wouldn’t recommend this game for its visuals at all, but it’s decently well made, animations fit the general style and are present on most sex scenes, dialogues are simple but correctly spelled, and there isn’t a lot of fat in them so the game never really feels like it’s wasting your time to pad the content… aside from the tech coding talk at work: the developer really wanted us to know that they actually understand development.

Another negative aspect is the different choices and paths. Sure, at one hand you get the choice to be in relationships with any of the girls, and it’s pretty easy to determined which choices will lead to dropping off a certain girl’s path since they are explicitly labeled. On the other hand… that’s exactly the problem, because there are SO MANY ways to drop out of a girl’s path, often for completely trivial reasons, that the game in many ways forces you to play exactly according to the ONE TRUE PATH it was designed, instead of actually allowing the player to pick how he wants to behave.

I originally was going to rate this a lower grade, but… you know, there’s nothing wrong with having simple goals, and this game mostly hits the target it was aiming for.

I like how the story goes, it doesn't matter that it seems a bit generic, as someone once said: simple things can be good, in terms of the characters they go well and I like the renders (Ada's look at the date was very well), the humor is also good and is in the best moments, as for the bad, the dialogues such as the conversations on the sofa and the rooms feel empty, lifeless. By this I mean the static images and that the characters do not present emotions, it can be improved, there is also the issue of updates, which last very little, but that is a lesser evil, however I think it is a good game and I look forward to the next update, because there were several expectations for the next update, without further ado, greetings, good luck and continue with the game

First of all I liked the musics and sounds a lot (especially the moans in lewd scenes)! I think there is decent amount of content in this game for being an initial version. I liked the story so far and character development was nice. Also the summary after each day was very good IMO. Five stars.
