Version Played: 0.13.4
Time Played: 15+ hours. Seen most content, missing some scenes here and there. Nothing that would make me change my opinion.
Now this is the stuff. As evidenced by the plethora of positive reviews, this one sildes down the ol' shaft real easy. While it certainly doesn't win points for originality in terms of setting, kinks or character archetypes, what's here is done so well and the graphics including camera angles, posing and fashion are absolutely top tier that it's a delight to play. There is basically a character for everyone from personality to design. The fact that there are also characters who haven't really even begun to be explored also bodes very well. I genuinely like all of the characters so far, and while not perfect, there is a three dimensionality to them you don't often see in games where eye candy and (contrived) sexual escapades are the main focus. To be sure, there's a lot of both of the latter and this isn't going to be winning any prizes for writing, but there's more than enough characterization, story and memorable moments to elevate it beyond the sum of its parts.
That said, all is not perfect; in spite of what those 15 hours might belie, there actually isn't as much sexual content as you might think, particularly penetrative. The English is also off, so some of the lines, particularly when swearing, end up being more silly than impactful. I also have to say that sometimes your options for the MC are only to play him as a creep, which I don't really like.
Positives
+ Beautiful girls with varying body design and defined personalities
+ Gorgeous visuals including some great animations and visually pleasing scene composition
+ Different paths to take certain LIs down that allow for a variety of outcomes
+ Character design has a slight modern 3D animation look to it with features being ever so slightly exaggerated (I dig, but YMMV)
+ Bush!
Negatives
- English needs work
- Sexual content to gameplay ratio is not good
- A bit on the grindy side, but not nearly as egregious as others
- Some choices only seem to allow for creepy behavior
Overall, even with its minor issues, I still think this is one of the best games on the site and now sits among my favorites.
There are awesome plot threads still remaining to be explored as well as ladies who have barely only received an introduction teasing some great times ahead.
This is a total must play in my book.
Note to Devs: Thank you very much for the incredible experience! I can't wait to see what happens next. I'm really looking forward to Evelyn's PS route content (I dig sharing) and it would be awesome to see some more content with MC's "adopted" father.
