VN - Ren'Py - Abandoned - Midlife Crisis [v0.34 - v0.1 Dark] [Nefastus Games]

Typical game where the selfish MC is fully up to Fuck all the girls he meets, all and for him alone. And the woman at home touching her toes, with hardly any options.. Typical woman statue and fool. If you add the cheat option, add swing / share or any other option, having a balance of the couple in the game is the most logical. If not, it is linear and boring. And no, I don't touch the subject NTR, I'm not talking about that.

Although the renders aren't of very good quality (It's not that I care as long as the game is entertaining), the high level of brightness makes them worse.

I have to remember, that a game without sounds or ambient sound, is fucking boring like hell.


And finally. If you're the developer, make the game as you agree or think it's, cause if you start thinking that if one part of the players likes this, or another part the other, it will never end anything, or create crap. You cannot create a game based on the frustrations of a small group of players, cause that way you won't get anything. For tastes, colors. What matters is that you develop a complete game "without complexes". The more options the better. Who doesn't like something, which disables it, or choose another path, is that simple.

What matters is to have options and paths to select, full, the rest is secondary.

Pros

• Good Writing
• Good variety of characters
• Pretty Good Renders
• Good Sex Scenes

Cons

• Scope creep (too many characters)
• Poor animation
• No sound
• CG's are a little grainy/not super sharp

This game could be really good if it the renders and animation were a bit better and the number of characters was reduced.

At the point the MC's sister and niece are introduced you already have the MC's wife, two daughters, one friend from each daughter, his assistant at work, an escort/prostitute and potentially someone the prostitute introduces you to. These aren't just background characters these are all characters you can have a relationship with.

The game needs more focus otherwise characters are going to get left behind or updates are going to take forever. The story is probably going to get harder manage as well. This might end up being another game abandoned or with an unsatisfactory ending unless you are pursuing specific characters.

I loved your game since I first played it. It has very good renders , and I think it has a very original way to use a not so original genre.
In one of the scenes at the pond, I saw a little bug, Christine face suddenly has a problem.
But I think that this version has a lot of content, I can't wait to see the full game.

Ps: English is not my 1st language

*FIRST TIME PLAYER*
*PLAYED VERSION v0.11*

I love how there is a path where every female lead is in a positive way connected to the main character. The game has a surprisingly refreshing positive vibe to it.

A nice break-up from the positive vibes was when one of the female leads was held captive by her mother, and even so, she wasn't abused too much and it ended well.

Renders are very nice. Quality is amazing. Story is amazing. I simply loved it.

NICE TO HAVES
I would love to have a save-system that allows grouping of routes. Right now, I'm doing it manually with my own folders. Other games I've played also lacked this, so imho it has a low priority!

OMG v11!!! This game became one of my favourites from the start. Not overly keen on Wifey (but that is probably the point isn't it? Anyway the story is great the interaction between MC and others is great and it just builds and builds. But now v11 and the party Hot Hot Hot. There are some games I just have to play as soon as they release an update and this may well have just gone to the top of the pile .

If there is one negative it is that the animation in some of the sex scenes is a little poor (robotic) but that aside this is a must play game.

A true gem of this website.

Good renders, great writing, outstanding pace in both the story AND update speed.

Other developers would do well to take note.

The only concern is the wide scope of characters being introduced that could potentially pull story-time away from more interesting characters - however even with that caveat the creator is working at such a breakneck speed that it just doesn't matter. Yet.

This really was shockingly fantastic. The render-quality and animations are...pretty basic, but the fact it is the source of a dozen meta-jokes makes up for that flaw.
In every other context this is a truly exemplary VN. It has good characters, with the added benefit of customization which adds a lot to the freedom of the experience.
It is well written and manifests quite effective scenes.
The models are all lovely and unique, despite the visual imperfections.
Rather cruelly, the final scene of version .10 is easily the funniest circumstance I have seen this side of a Monty Python skit. The fact that it currently ends in the middle of said scene means the Dev is either a genius...or a total jerk.

This game is not the most technically impressive, for sure, but it absolutely is more fun than just about anything else on this site.

While the render quality is not the best, and the game as a whole is not a masterpiece on any level, it's pretty good and I think it's due to its simplicity. The story is simple and has choices on how to progress on different characters, the characters look simple yet pleasant to look at and have a good variety in looks and personality, and the humor's not bad. Overall a decent game, especially if you're looking for an all-out harem game.

First saw this game on new updates opened the game page saw the art said nope.
Some months later I was searching by tag (romance) saw it again decided to try figured it would something to spend time on.
Instead I fell in love with this story and played the game multiple times that day(it's not very long unfortunately) and have played it repeatedly since then.
So first Art_______ not great sometimes the characters faces don't quite fit I guess especially the character Christine the creator pokes fun of themselves once about it too though the bodies are hot.
Story______ simplistic yet somehow perfect, the story (obviously) follows your character a successful but just reaching middle age man whose kids moved to college (or not) and to make the house less empty you and your wife let's two attractive college girls move in( I think your wife is too trusting )or they are your daughters it's actually written to work well either way.
From there it's simple see a girl chose to perv on her or not so far there are no truly bad choices, if you don't no problem if you do they all(improbably) like it and flirt back and that's it.
That is probably the reason I love this game do much your character actually gets teased by the girls so much it's obvious they want you, there's no wearing the girls down till they "like" you or what not(another thing the author pokes fun at in the game) it's sweet I guess is the best term I can think of who knew a porn game could be improved so much with so much sweetness it should make your teeth hurt.
Gameplay______simple vn format choose follow story to next choice, not complicated as of yet, so far there are no lose out on this character instead of that character choices.
Some times if you perv to much or not enough you will miss a few scenes but it doesn't overly affect the story.

Loved it. Porn game with no grinding and no real 'plot'. Just following the exciting adventures of a successful married father and interacting with multiple women in his life.

Incest? You can do it or don't if you feel like it.
Want to love your hot big breasted wife? Sure. Want to hate her? Sure.
Steamy affair with an office subordinate who has hots for you? Go for it.
Have unprotected sex with young women? Do it.
Prostitute? Check.
Daughters' friends? Not off limits.
Pop some virgin pussies on while you're at it. Or don't. You'll get the option to back off.

It has a lot of it. It doesn't have fluid animations or detailed renders. All the fun comes form the hot scenarios and the steamy dialogue. Definitely worth a download in my opinion. Cheers.

Models: like the creator stated, beginning is hard. Like 6/10 imo. After mid game its like 8/10. But it is not only about models in this game. The story man, the story.

Story 10/10. With story I dont mean its really original. I mean that every character has a kink and you go for it in this game. Like I stated, models arent top nodge (while I really appreciate the Jennifer model), the story and kinks makes you want more.

Original? No not really. Man with a lot of females, you pick and unlock their "story".

But again, it has a great pace and the characters are charming in different ways. Makes you want more. And if you dont like a certain model or character, just ignore them. But that wont happen, cause you are browsing reviews on a 18+ site.

All I can say is, try it and do not quit at the start, but give it a chance.

I played through this game not expecting much, but I was pleasantly surprised with how much content there is for a 0.0.x version. There is a lot of awesome dialogue, and the characters are enjoyable. The renders aren't the best, but the fact that they don't look like every other game is a nice change. They also get better as you go (which the dev acknowledges).

The only real con I have is that there are a few scenes (especially nearing the end of the content) that kind of break and jump forward. There are definitely a few skips that seem really jarring where the MC would jump locations unexpectedly and people who (at least in my play through) were ignorant of things all of the sudden knew everything going on.

All in all, I definitely recommend giving this a try!

At first, it seemed that there would be a rather dull game for the evening, with rather scary models of heroes and a banal plot. Yes, in the end, the models really do not look very neat in places, and the plot itself is simple, but ... God, how pleasant it is to read the dialogues!
The characters are very well written and almost no one feels a limp idiot, without his opinion on what is happening. Everyone has their own characters and they are not shy to demonstrate it. Even the main character, who by tradition should simply smack nonsense and crawl under skirts for everyone, actually turns out to be a very interesting character, and even with great singing talents
Dialogues and action are diluted with very unexpected for this kind of games, great jokes and just funny references.
The scenes themselves may not be so good, but because of the attachment to the characters, they involve the player much better than dummy games with good graphics.
I was confused by only three points. 1) Often, after especially funny moments, the whole "mood" was lost. 2) HOW AND AFTER THIS FUCKING NIGHTMARE 3) The game ever ends, which is incredibly frustrating
As a result, I can recommend it to everyone, it will be a very interesting experience. I love when you do not expect anything from the project, and it pleases you very much. A wonderful feeling

Normally wouldn't give such a perfect score so quickly in a game's life cycle without any real "pay off" scenes from all the teasing and anticipation. But this game, I feel, is an instant classic.

Not only is it a self aware type of game that doesn't take itself too seriously, it's also a game which mocks all the pointless grinding mechanics of other WEGs. The graphics improve over time which shows that Dev listens to feedback and is dedicated to their fan base. The Story is more than adequate. The dialogue has plenty of comical and sexy moments and what sets this weg apart is the choice selection.

This type of choice selection is not unheard of but without getting into too many spoilers its nicely done and has a unique element. I highly recommend this game and am so happy I gave this a try.

Having finished playing, lemme just say, this is one of the most enjoyable games i have found on this site.

The diversity of body styles was extremely refreshing, and the girls were just simply hot. The quirky facial expressions when hey are witnessing things making them perv out is a nice touch.

It was also nice to have the girls actually perv on you, rather than being such pristine little cherubs, who can somehow be coerced into bouncing on daddies dick if you just don't touch them too fast, as is the norm in other games.

I'm especially impressed with the renders, even though it is obvious from the direct 4th wall breaks that the creator is new to the process, that will obviously improve in time, but he has a real grasp of what makes a girl 'hot', and it was present in multiple body styles.... Another thing most games simply miss the mark on.

Kudos!~

This game does an excelent job at story telling.

1. Story:
It focuses on the MC and his love interest and introduces side characters as exactly that. Side characters. It keeps the main focus on wife and daughters and only adds side characters to the mix instead of forcing the player/reader to follow the side characters and their stories while cockblocking the main characters out of sight.

2. Sex:
It adds spicy details but never to much to keep the players interested and advance the story while tossing some sexy scenes into the mix here and there. Of course never to much or to less. Its teasing non the less but that what makes it good. People always coming back for more and thats exactly how it should be.

3. Humor:
I cant adress this enough but life is full of humor. To add it into a story and aknowledge the fact that most guys make a damn fool out of their own skin or at least pretent it to actually make their women laugh is excellent. Its always nice to see a dev that knows that and adds it to the mix without making the MC a complete joke or a babbling idiot. He is funny when he needs to be and no more.

Some things i would advice to improve:

Daughters:
Its obvious both are interested in the MC. A great story element would be to add spying scenes where they spy on the MC and his sexual encounters with the wife as example. It could also be the MC spying on them and seeing them talking about him.
But PLEASE for the love of god not in the "Oh Daddy" while she fingerblasts herself kind of way as we seen hundreds of times in other games. Its boring and seen a hundred times over now.

As an example for a different scene:
The daughters talk about their dad and how one of them feels no guilt to be sexually attracted to him. While the other is shocked and they discuss it where the MC finds out both of them want the Daddy. Then they talk about how such a sexual encounter could go down. Not only will the reader start imagine that scene in his head it could also turn on the MC who then gets cockblocked by the wife fucking her brains out in the process for interrupting him while she has to adress him as "Daddy" to fulfill at least a bit of his dream.

And it dont have to be the daughters it could be one of the side characters as well who has this conversation! "I have the hots for your dad" to which she replies: "What?" Followed by: "But he is an old man" And the conversation could go on: "Lots of experience then" and so on and so forth.

Wife:
While i believe its important to have her around i think she kinda gets forgotten other then a few dialouges and fucking her when the MC gets a chance to. Maybe she finds out the MC cheated behind her back but doesnt get mad. Instead asks what he is missing in the bedroom and how they can improve their relationship. The MC could tell her he would never leave her no matter what but for him its kinda the same stuff over and over again and it doesnt excite him anymore. Opens a whole new level of kinks that could be added even introducing her to the incest story line. Or threesomes etc.

She should be more involved in the story and the daughters maybe even finding out about this sexual tension between MC and daughters and the story could go two ways.

1. She is absolutely disgusted by it and thinks the MC is downright insane for considering this stuff and even gets mad at the daughters for it. I HIGHLY ADVICE against that approach as it starts drama which turns to a downspiral of annoying dialouge stealing away renders blocking the story advance and stretches the story to even more work where nothing gets done other then a mad episode.

2. She is curious on why and how and could approach this whole scenario with the "love doesnt choose" stuff and actually consider a foursome with the daughters as in her mind its better having a loving relationship even when its incest other then losing their girls to some fucked up chad who uses them for sex only maybe getting them pregnant in the process then dumbing them on first sight and crush their emotions with it.

Example:
She finds out about it and confronts the MC. Asking the right questions where the MC beats around the bush and then the wife drops the bomb by actually liking the idea simply because its cute that her husband is seen as a loving prime example of a male by her daughters. She could go on that they would lose them sooner or later to some guy taking them away from her and him and if its this what it takes to keep them she is willing to take the chance.


Side Characters:
I love the fact that we get small and big boobs not only on the daughters but also on the side characters. Guys like boobs in all kind of sizes. What is a bit of a bummer is that it isnt adressed as most women who get intimate with you adress it sooner or later. "My boobs are to small right?" To get reassured that everything is fine the way they are. Adds more intimacy and more believable dialouge to it and could also improve the relationship with the side characters and the daughters when they hear about the compliments the MC dishes out to all kind of sizes of breasts.

A so to say all around reassurance.

For anyone holding out this long thanks for reading

A fun casual game. Lots of strip tease so if you into that this is your game. There aren't consequences for your actions (yet), so it does make the game very linear but quite fun. The graphics are overall nice but off from time to time. The plot is quite fun, but could use some refinement. Overall this game is def worth a download.

This was a great game early on. I find some issue with recent story line personally but I believe the Dev is just trying to expand the universe. This art quality is amazing and clearly a lot of work went into this over all story. Worth checking out.

played this one earlier today, had expectations of a game to be a typical man in the incestuous family...

this game have a kind of identity crisis...(no pun intended) its neither full blown incest keep it in family fuckfest, its not a very good made story game either. what it is is too random

its like dev thought he knew what the crowd would be expecting so he decided to go with it, then at some point, he decided to go against the flow of the most incest games and go with more story driven approach
thats the best as i can put it to words

renders... oh renders, this one aint kind to my eyes, lots of grain lots of dead pixels in these some overexposure as well, theyre all over the place
while this is my personal taste, i also found the girls not to be very pretty, and worse of all not very likeable as chars either

wouldnt be an issue if the game was a fuckfest, but for a storydriven game, connection with npcs is a must

some dialog is funny, most of it is meh and obvious

sex scenes are pretty decent, and are probably the reason this got 2 instead of 1 star, shallow redeeming quality, but quality nontheless

this game had some time to grow up, but its not looking very promising so far, people that can go past the meh story, the cliche funny dialog, the grainy nonconsistent renders, can get rewarded with pretty decent sex scenes - im not the one to play the game only for sex scenes so i feel the rating reflects my experience with this game honestly, and seeing that the game has been around for a while now, i think what we are seeing now we can expect more of the same for future releases - in which case, i wont be giving this one tries in the future updates

there you go ladies and gents

A good start. Does all the right things. Really well written. Classic but well done story. Lots of choice for different tastes in women. Really nice touch with being able to choose character ages.
Graphically though it's in need of an upgrade and although I know it's not animated as such, the partial motion scenes that are in there could be improved to makes the sex scenes hotter.

A 3 star game given a 4th star because of the game's potential to be a 5 star game (If that makes any sense lol)... looking forward to future updates.
