Yes.
But I think it would be better with more details, especially girls. And more detailed actions :)
Maybe a little animation?

I played through the game for the first time and i have to say the grind is god awful for me personally it would have made the game unplayable, but with the save editor it's actually pretty decent since you can circumvent all the tedious uninspired money grind.
Apart from some scenes missing proper hints how to get to the next steps and some unnecessary roadblocks here and there and the skipping days to get to a certain event the rest of the game is decent.
The only thing that makes this game worthwhile is the quality of the art and to some degree (and for some people) the fetishes, although i have to say that the writing is really horrendous sometimes and the MC being a complete douchbag doesn't really help a lot.
The other thing that bothers me a bit is that you for example can't lick lisa after reaching that point in the mentoring, but you get two blowjob scenes with her, like why not make one of those scenes a cunnilingus scene, same for example for alice during the couch massage, why isn't there an option to finger or lick her instead of the armada of blow and handjobs that you get everywhere. There could also be an option to stealthily finger lisa somewhere (in the morning before school for example) after you managed to make her not wear panties at all anymore, or make her wear the buttplug to school.

Things like these would bring so much more to this game :/ i hope the author reads these comments and thinks on them.

great now you can see mom talking how she will fuck other actors in front of a lot of people cause she don't want to do it with max.

alice says that she is happy with you but only when you help her to make money and treats like shit when she is with kate.

<sarcasm>what a nice game</sarcasm>

Yup. The scenes are hot but god do you have to find them. I know Summertime Saga is a very different game and it has it's own problems but chances are if you're stuck in that game its an easy plot fix and you don't waste a lot of game time trying to course correct.

The reason this game is doing so well is because there's no negative comments section on Patreon. Imagine if he tried to release it on Steam? It would be tagged NTR and have "mixed" comments so fast your head would spin.

The reason everyone is so angry about this is it's false advertising. It's labeled an incest game but only after hours of grinding do you find out it's forced NTR over and over. Not only is it NTR it's a game where you the player are the one being NTR'ed. That's an extreme niche that's going to pull in money. When it's labeled as an incest game though it's just going to make people rage hard.

As for it making lots of money? Not really. He can't pull in this cash long term. People will find out what kind of game it is. He also has zero chance of large future profits on something like Steam. A year from now Dark Cookie could put Summertime Saga on steam and make millions in comparison.

It's not just the NTR stuff. Honestly if the Eric thing was handled better than there wouldn't be that much of an issue. What kills it is the gameplay, it's nonstop clicking, and I guess it hits that lizard part of our brain that just has to keep going, but it blows. There is just WAY too much downtime in this game, and not enough content for the amount of effort. And that's nuts when you consider that there are a ton of different routes with scenes, some of which are great.

I still don't get why the whole clicking simulator genre is so popular, but if you're going to do it, a grind should be minimal. Outside of that, the choices a character makes are useless or only exist to cut out content. And the scenes themselves are WAY too short, a bit of description would do wonders. We don't need more CG, but say how shit feels, talk about how the girl is reacting, ANYTHING!

Yeah the last couple of updates don't have much Eric in it, its like the game assumes everyone got rid of him as soon as possible.

I was kind of of hoping for an ending where I let Eric have his way and just expose all of it right before I leave. Sit mom and the sisters down to show them the recording I made when Eric told me he was going to fuck every girl in the house.

Show my sisters that I caught Eric jerking it to Alice and our pathetic cock blinded mom got mad when I tried to tell her.

I would have recorded him "training" Lisa and all the shit he does with Alice every time Mom takes a fucking shower.

The looks on their faces should be pretty priceless. Make sure to call my mom a retarded cum dumpster for not being able to see past Eric's tiny dick. Tell her to have fun with her married boyfriend who's real name she doesn't even know while he fucks both her daughter behind her back.

Then I take the Aunt, the only one who believed me and tried to help and just leave with all the money I made recording. Seriously………there is a CAMERA IN EVERY ROOM how is it not easier to expose everything eric does?

i've also wondered about this myself, it would throw a wrench right into the eric plotline, probably why the author never addresses this issue

game is complete shit, shitty story, annoying characters, grammatical errors all over the place and the MC gets cucked left right and center.

i stopped as soon as Eric was introduced but from what i hear even though you can get rid of him MC still gets cucked.
sister gets pimped and mom becomes a pornstar...


why the fuck does this russian cuck get 20k a month? how is that possible for such a shitty game?

Disclaimer.
I have only played each of Lisa's path 1 time each but for the "You got to fight for him" which I have played now 6 times through to make sure I got ever thing.
My statements are base on my play going down the "You got to fight for him" path.

A traumatized rape victim that is abused by a guy that is cheating on her that manipulates her in a way that she is ok with the fact of their son or daughter are in room when they have sex for educational purposes, and don't care he is actively trying to seduce the older sister even when you present to her a photo of him masturbating watching her.
So now in V0.6 your options are to abuse your mother or to convert her in a PornStar.
But she has total authority over Max and Max knows it. I never use what can be gotten from Erik I always tell him I will think about it to keep him at bay for as long as possible. Max is between a rock and a very hard place and is trying to fight for his family the only way he knows how. (You need to listen to aunts story about Anna, before the kidnapping she was just as head strong as Kira is but now is just a shell of her old self.)

That is a professional whore, but probably the only one that cares for you.
No to this 100%, all of them care for Max. Mother does but she is being controlled by Erik. Big sister loves Max as big sisters do by being snarky and putting him down but deep down inside she cares for him.
Now little sister took me a long time to figure out, she is secretly in love with Max and if you play through the "You need to fight for him" path and if the english translation from russian would have brought the passion over you can see it.
There is still a lot of hints to this in the english game and if you look for them you will see them.

Big Sister: An interested bitch that hates you and only cares for the one that give her the best gifts and money no matter who he is. And the only way you can get something from her is if you pay weed to her pimp or make her drunk.
This is only her outward persona and if you watch each pic you can pick up on her secret love for all her family. Typical big sister attitude is how she is portrayed. A lot of the passion is lost in translation but there are a lot of hints to this. The very first time you get to spank Alice when you catch her smoking and you chose the right response she thinks its a complement and if she hated Max this would not happen.

Little Sister: You can convince her to do things she don't want to do with you and later use the love and respect she have for aunt to force her keep doing thins she don't want to do with you or let an untruthful guy to drug her so you can have his GF.
Now little sister took me a long time to figure out, she is secretly in love with Max and if you play through the "You need to fight for him" path and if the english translation from russian would have brought the passion over you can see it.

One of the first major tell tell is when aunt came in the first time for training, the next day she tells Max that Lisa got wet very fast and this is not normal for one who does not want it. The first major tell for this is when they both got off while Lisa was watching porn on her phone, she open up to Max at that time and showed her true feelings for him.
Go back to the opening story, what teenage girl who is offered her own bedroom turns it down to sleep in the same room her brother is in, this is the first hint from Lisa.

Once again I love the "You need to fight for him" path.

Max is limited in what he can do to keep Erik's authority down so he will not be sent to camp and must pay 300 a week to save his ass until he can take care of Erik and while doing this he has fallen in love with his whole family.
For big sister he has to pay her and give her massages to drive down Erik's authority.
Little sister he has to help her with homework and do the dishes.
For mom he has to walk in on her and give her a complement and watch a movie with her and later give her money to drive down Eirk's authority.

This is how I see what is going on in the "You got to fight for him" path.

This just popped into my head. Lisa is using Alex to make Max jealous so he will chase her more. Secret love is great.
Every convo you have with Lisa just watch her face you can see it there when you are looking for it.
I have just started my 7th playthrough and am seeing more and more now that I know to look for them.
Even Alice tells Max that he is great early in the game if you have done the right convo with her. If you play as if she is a bitch then you will miss it.

This game does grind my gears a good bit. But it is still one of the best adult games I have played. There are instant gratification games galore, but games like this one are few and far between. I can't wait for it to get fleshed out, and hopefully the income gets balanced a bit more so the game isn't a huge pain in the behind for the majority of players who don't already know how to make it easier. I don't mind some challenge, but too much leads to folks wanting to cheat, hence me using the $10k cheat a few times. I don't like Eric, but due to that, it makes getting rid of him so much more satisfying. I reported him to the dudes who were chasing him the first and only time I have gotten rid of him so far. The game really opens up after that. I really liked bargaining with your mom to get new choices, like Max spanking his sisters instead of his mom. There is a lot of depth to this game.

The biggest thing that grinds my gears though is locked content behind a long game. I don't want to have to choose between Olivia and Lisa training. I would rather all content be available if you jump through hoops. I want my naked yoga, which I can't have with Olivia around. I want to walk in on mom and Eric, while also getting ready to stab Eric in the back in one form or another.

I wish I knew more games like this one, as I am new to games like this. Not so much NTR, but games with the production values of this one that don't focus entirely on banging every girl around you with minimal effort. I guess the biggest reason I like this game is the production values. I see a lot of potential, and the wait for it to get updates, just like summertime saga, is frustrating.

Played through it 3 or 4 times so far when I get bored with other stuff =p That plus A Zombies Life, and a few other go to games. I have tried most of the popular games listed here, and Summer plus Big Brother are the best of the lot, imo.
