VN - Ren'Py - The Adventurous Couple [TACOS Part 8b] [Mircom3D]

Graphics are good, but the writing is abysmal. I have no idea how people rate this thing so highly.

Pros:
-The female models look good
-The MC is not forced to cheat on the wife if the player doesn't want him to... (more on that below unfortunately)

Cons:
-The dialogue is awkward and soulless. Conversations are abrupt and usually about things that don't matter. "Lets have lunch" followed immediately by the narration saying "you have lunch." Characters never expand outside of the shallow one dimensional character trait that they're assigned at the start (which the narration will literally tell you while introducing that character...)
-Repetition. My god does this game go in circles. the aforementioned "lets have lunch" scenario plays out pretty much every day in some form or another. Morning shower, breakfast, work, lunch, and any dinner that isn't a pizza dare all follow the same formula, and you will have to suffer through several of these each day. Again and again, round the merry-go-round of meaningless slog we go. To make matters worse, the writing has the same feeling when the MC and wife discuss any lewd activities they just got up to. "wow, I liked that" or "wow, that was hot" is the reaction to almost every single thing that happens in the game.
-Cheating. This is supposed to be a game about sharing, but you have zero control over Anne. She will cheat on the MC, no matter what choices you make, and even if the player stayed faithful to her, the dev apparently thought that you wouldn't, and the dialogue assumes you didn't no matter what actual choices you made. There are no consequences for this (of for if the MC does cheat, same shit applies) everything is just hand waved after one very short conversation and everyone acts like nothing happened.
-Anne. The whole idea of this game is to slowly get Anne to open up to this kind of lifestyle and be more comfortable being sexual with other men, something that is established in the intro that she's not interested in as she's said no to the MC's requests for this before. This doesn't work when she's portrayed as such a wanton slut with zero shame. There's never any deliberation or hesitation when a new task or situation pushes on her supposed boundaries, she jumps right in with enthusiasm. From the very first task, she's flashing her naked body at strangers in public... not really what you'd expect from someone that was against being sexual with other people. And no matter what she does, or how far she goes, she never has second thoughts once. She never has any conflict or doubt about how what she's doing might affect her marriage or even her as a person. She just dives headfirst into everything and has the same damn reaction to it all. "Wow, that was hot!"

TLDR:
Decent visuals, but everything else is terrible. If a visual novel of all thing requires you to skip the dialogue to make it half enjoyable, then what is the point of making this into a game, or playing it? Might as well just be a collage of images. Disappointing.

This game is about Hotwife.It's a pity that the dude develops regular scenes of friends at home.new and new Quantities generally break down the quality, but it is necessary to go further - it is already boring.To develop breadth and correct the beginning -more of a hotwife challenge.What is the plot?The dude wanted to PERSUADE, but we overslept to persuade.the developer did not give it))It's not a bunch of *bl* that scratches, but how a woman GG- k*k*lda treats her, that's who on his foreign sites could tell what is not the number.And the search for a plot is a kull

The game is an NTR simulator of k *k *l yes or putting a wife under other men. GG at the very beginning, literally in the third sentence, says that he dreams of seeing his wife with other men, after this phrase it becomes clear what to expect from the game. And if you don't like it, it's better to drop it right away.

According to the content: a very strong bias in the number of scenes towards GG's wife, in just a week she turned from a diligent wife into a nymphomaniac, changing a large number of partners. I wanted to follow not only her adventures, but also GG, and by chapter 10 the situation had changed for the better. In general, the content can be adjusted independently, refuse uninteresting characters, or completely ignore events, such as a Christmas party, but for that matter, why specifically cut off a bunch of content from the game?

The game is generally good, some comments in the style of "little content for a man" or "she quickly turns from a good wife into an accessible woman" and about some logical inconsistencies are unclear (the latter is in any story game, especially the erotic genre).

In fact, it is the presence of content for the husband that is superfluous, and violates the concept of the game, k *k * ld should not behave like this, and even more so look like a bodybuilding champion (in other games of similar subjects, the characters look closer to the image).

And secondly, this is a complete lack of jealousy on his part, and this is an important factor that affects the atmosphere and immersion, and 3-the scenes in the game are not very well staged, it looks stupid-when the courier comes, and the husband sits in an armchair, while g*l* I wife walks back and forth, he must hiding and peeping, plus very indecisive male heroes, the whole initiative comes from the husband, not from l*b*vics, which also has a bad effect on immersion. Although I repeat, fans of the genre will come in, since there are not so many such games.

P.S. I wanted to ask how she starts cheating? (I understand that the indicator of infidelity does not change when the husband agrees to the act) for this, love must fall to some kind of value or just happen according to the plot?

First thing and foremost this is clearly not for everyone the game focus is on NTR/netorase/vixen-stag/hotwife kinks and this game is the most realistic netorase/swinging game that I ever played renders are good too .

The new version of TACOS is a great improvement visually and both pace and dialogue.
I enjoyed the previous version, but I enjoy this version more, awesome game dev and good luck can't wait for what the future holds for Anne.

Possibly the best hotwife / sharing game out there, Anne is my absolute favorite woman in any 3DCG game and possesses a real yummy attitude. A wonderful blend of beauty while being exotic and slutty.

If you are into it for the guy -- he is pretty much just a guy who gets laid alot without nuance other than being Anne's cheerleader.

Renders 5/5
Animations 5/5
Plot 5/5
Ease of play - 5/5

I support this Dev and will continue to do so.

I've played this game from the very beginning. For new players this might hold some excitement but the only thing that tastes like new are the now very good 'new' renders and a prettier Anne. The animations are still crap and the dialogues are as shallow as they were 6 years ago. For a 2nd rehash of the same same I expected top notch animation and dialogues to match, especially as the Dev purported that this version would reflect his true vision. Well, it's myopic. Yes there are some new renders and some new scenes but the game, if one has played the earlier versions, does not even excite anymore. Anne was a cumslut/cumbucket and this has not changed because there is minimal buildup to Anne jumping on another cock. Call this rehash a cockup if you want but for those who played the previous version, remember Anne as she was, a very lovable hotwife..
Try Couple's Duet, It's what TAC could have been.

Believe me, this is the greatest NTR/NTS/Sharing/Swinging game.
You can choose paths from sharing, cuckold, cheating, faithful or even something in between. MC can be a winner or a looser. It's all up to you.
The story line it's good too. It can get a little messed if you try to jump more than one path at the same time but the game is still in progress.
i think this is one of the best graphics i ever seen. Anne is simple GORGEOUS. I'm in love with that woman.
Also there's a lot of sex scenes (really a lot).
Congrats tot the DEV. I´ll be always following you hoping for more.

I love the girls, especially Anne, a perfect woman and the story so far. One of my absolute favorite games from the beginning.
In the current original story, right at the beginning of the game, I finally have the chance to stop MC's father's reckless sexual behavior. That's great for me. But it's also clever to give her this opportunity again later on. That's what makes this decision so appealing.

This game looks gorgeous, the women are stunning throughout with plenty of fun scenarios allowing either total cuckdom or sharing.
Will def be buying this as a full game. And supporting the dev for further projects. I feel so lucky to chance upon this epic, well made jewel of a game.

Excellent if you're looking for NTR story. Animations, graphics, plot, everything is well done and goes to the essential, it's very exciting and i 'm looking forward for the next release. Keep it up !

It's alright.

The models are pretty but stiff at times, and the writing is clearly intended to railroad you heavily into the outright cuckoldry path.

I attempted playing this to have the wife be exhibitionist and a tease, but instead the husband was (without my direction) pushing her boss to fuck her - what happened to any of the subtle gradients between those two directions, I have no idea.

If you're super into the idea of netorare/netorase in general, it's alright, but there are better more competently written options on the site.

I don't consider it a bad game but I don't see the evolution I expected, just two more letters and a couple different scenes, including one that makes it impossible for me to play it on my cell phone, I'm going to enjoy the game without expecting anything, I think it's better for me than that way

If you're not into hotwife, cheating, cuck and such this is not the game for you. But if you are than this is one of the best of it's kind. the wife is so hot and her scenes are amazing. I get the fact that people are annoyed that this is the 2nd reboot of the game but it is much more cohesive this time.

It's by far the best wifesharing/cuckold game out there. Super render. Very sexy woman.

The story has great ideas and runs at a perfect pace. Of course, everything runs a little too perfectly, but that's normal for games like this.

It lacks a bit of the humiliation aspect but that's what makes the overall story a bit more believable. Or rather, you could actually imagine that a story like this would also be possible in real life. With a lot of imagination, of course.

Thanks for the great game!

The Adventurous Couple is a VN about a married couple and their sexual explorations. As much as I’m a fan of swinging and netorase, there are just too many flaws in this game for me to really get behind it.

First, the characters are extremely bland. The husband and wife have no personality outside of maybe the wife being horny and the husband being aggressively cucky. The men who fuck the husband’s wife and women who the husband flirts with are also completely flat, with roles but no personality. It’s hard to care about anybody fucking in a game where none of them are likeable. You might as well just watch porn at that point.

Second, there’s basically nothing in the way of story progression or character growth. While the individual scenes can be pretty hot, they just come about as if the author pulled them from a hat. There’s almost nothing in the way of a narrative that connects them. As for character growth, technically the wife is “corrupted” over time, but she’s fucking at the drop of a hat pretty quickly with almost no pushback.

Lastly, and this is more personal preference, the game feels more cucky than swingy. The husband’s interactions with his wife are largely voyeurism to her fucking and showing off. This might be circumstantial, but the one time I told her not to fuck a guy, she got upset and insisted she wasn’t going to fuck him… and absolutely does with your consent in the only other option.

Anyway, there are some hot scenes in the game if you’re into voyeurism and exhibitionism and I do like the wife’s model, but this feels more like a collection of individual scenes than a story or a game. If you’re really into the above kinks, give it a shot. However, you won’t find much if cucky swinging and exhibitionism aren’t your thing.

Taco is now a game based on the original idea which they are gradually trying to restore graphically and grammatically, perhaps the initial idea from a few years ago as an innovation could have been good, but over time instead of improving it they have worsened the situations and not resolved the flaws of the game, wasting time just reviewing yet another restoration is enough, it has no meaning, it would have been more useful to repair some dynamics that were not so appreciated, and perhaps not to make Anna a woman who thinks only with her pussy without brains and morals, and a more MC damn, it would have given a more dynamic effect to the game.

Excellent NTR story
The MC is very handsome his wife is very hot and there are all ingredients for the hotwife genre the fact the story is from male perspective can cause doubt and some controversial filling but for me the story is believable.
The prologue allow the player to understand that this couple comes from a long time relationship because they know each other from the college days.
I' have played all versions including the one that was aborted at CH15

Renders are very nice
the dialogues are minimal but leave the reader's imagination free, and I think that is a good thing

definitely one of the must-have games on this site..

10/10 for me

After watching the protag cum on his stomach from the 27th lazy handjob by his otherwise creatively devious whore wife (who just took an equal number of rando sausages in the past week), I'm left wondering if the "adventure" and "couple" are ever going to become the focus of this VN.

This story is on a few recommended swapping VN lists, but I would advise anyone in the market for a fun swapping/sharing couples story to stay far away. This is cuck POV to the max and while there are a ton of scenes, the story takes a long time to go nowhere. The game basically requires the reader to enjoy loosely strung together hardcore porn scenes from an enthusiastic sub/cuck POV. I'm giving it a negative review mainly because I feel like the game's title, early story, and inclusion of stat tracking/etc. gives the false impression to players that this game provides some agency to switch between loving/kinky/depraved scenes. Eventually, it's all depraved/lying/cheating here no matter what choices are made.

Considering everything, I would give this game a 3 out of 5 stars. Why? Well, I think there are definitely some things that need major improvement.
Starting with the story and the decisions - you and your super hot wife decide to spice up your sex life. Fine, a solid premise, a lot of space for fetish exploration and kinky stuff. What happens along the way? Basically you just turn into a cheating couple who have no boundaries. The problem I have with this is specifically one decision, and that is the decision that should lead to staying faithful. In the end, this doesn't matter, and Anna still cheats on you. That way the decisions don't really make sense. Also, Anna gives into the swinger lifestyle pretty easily, (almost) immediately starting to flirt with other guys and flaunting herself. I wish this was done in another, slower way. I believe it would make the plot more interesting.
The renders have their ups and downs, there is a lot of clipping and the animations weren't always of high quality. Still, the models do look good, especially Anna, who is an absolute eye candy.
Overall, I had some fun playing this game, but won't probably come back to it.
