The drama of trying to fuck your mom.

Family issues is the name of the game, so be prepared for drama, tears, and hot ladies.

The biggest issue I had with the game is it, in the current state, is a bit of a buggy mess. You'll constantly run into Renpy bug screens, the game might try to restart on you, so my fapping fun at the times things got sexy was often interrupted. Damn shame. Especially since the gallery is the worst buggy mess of the bunch.

Because the women are pretty hot, the models were nice to look at and fuck with, and of course I was lured by the promise of sleep sex. Not much to that sadly, just the usual sleep molestation and jerking off on some too. You do eventually get to fuck a couple of the ladies, but the mom is still off the table as of now.

Needs some major bug patching to be really fun, which would bring it up to a "good" but in its current state; "average".

Epic! Simply epic. Hot models, I love big bewbs, cool MC, fun story that knows how to get spicy. Hot scenes. It is genius. Top game on this site, at least for me. Right up my alley.
Keep up the good work, Dev!

Since I discovered the forum last year, I have installed and played an average of 20 Ren'Py games and this game in my humble opinion is the best.
Positive Points: MILF + GILF (involvement with the mother I've seen a lot, but involvement with the grandmother is the first time I've seen it).
Negative Points: Characters and sex scenes from version 0.3 are not present in version 0.6.0.
Congratulations to developer Serious Punch for bringing us this masterpiece. It certainly deserves our support on Patreon so that it continues to develop new chapters of this story.

This game is great. It has a lot of fetishes that hit the spot. I was glad to see a GILF in the story which is something you don't see a lot. The story is ok...

4 stars all the way. Look forward to more.

Dude, Love the GILF and MLF in this game, please add more interaction with the grandma, this is by far the best model i've seen latelly.
Add anal and more scenes, gonna add this to my favorite list this is looking great and play great!!

Looking forward to the next updates.

The simplistic writing is devoid of any real character or humor.
The plot barely exists and has been done better in a great many other games.

The only thing it really has going for it is an abundance of busty broads, but if for some reason that ain't your thing you'll find yourself disappointed in the lack of variety.

It's not quite bottom of the barrel but I can't really recommend it unless you've somehow exhausted all other options and are JONESING to play SOMETHING.

Some of the best renders I have ever seen in a Ren'Py game, the animations are smooth and realistic and the story is interesting enough that you don't feel you have to speed-click through everything.

5 star game, can't wait to see what SP does next.

Story
It's pretty "slice-of-life" and for me, I love that. It doesn't go crazy with introducing 30 characters and it's grounded enough in reality that it's believable and you can relate to the MC.

Renders
As I said above, these are phenomenal. Right up my street with the things I love in terms of the quality and the character designs. Great lighting, camera angles, it feels professional.

Content
As with most games that are still in production, it's not hours of gameplay. However, considering the update schedule, I think this is far better in terms of content than we normally see with solo-dev games.

Review at the time for v0.5.0

Pretty good game. I'd say there's roughly 4 to 5 hours of content available.

I am not a fan of sandbox so while it's true this game shouldn't be sandbox considering how linear the story is, I'd like to dispell some of the rage directed towards Golden Boy from those comments. There are literally only a handful of instances where you have to select where the character goes and it takes all of 10 seconds to figure out where to go and be there. It's a complete non-factor so if you're not a fan of sandbox don't worry, it's barely a part of the game. You probably spent more time reading this paragraph than you are going to be navigating where to go in this game.

I think that the renders are really good for most part. All the girls are pretty, at worst the Grandma starts off a little too pale but that actually gets addressed quickly and her skin is given a bit more color.

The only warning I guess I'd give is if you're looking for a story rich game, this is not it. The story is very simple and shallow.

For the people who want to just dive into constant sexual tension with big titties and fat asses and a couple pretty ass faces, this is a game for you.

I really liked this game from the start because of how straightforward it was. so much so, i was already readying myself to make a five star review here since a game that seemingly gives so much freedom to the player is quite rare in F95. of course, it seems that it was too good to be true indeed

what i meant by "how straightforward this game is", is that it directly allows the player to choose what kind of relationship they want with the girls. it straight up just asks you if you want Love points and Lust points and that's a pro. i personally don't think it has to be that easy but if i can smoothly go through the path i want, i won't be one to argue with the good thing

but i should have known that it was just a coincidence how this was matching what i wanted perfectly; after all, i always go for the Mom in those games, which is the first one to be introduced here(and the one with least H-Scenes LMAO). naturally, i'd see the game for what it really is when it'd come to what's in it besides the girl I want, which is, just like in 90% of F95 poorly-designed games, girls you're forced to have a relationship with. this is absurd considering that there in fact several moments where the game does allow you to refuse a girl or get away from her, but for some reason this is also inconsistent. even if you're not interested in one specific girl, the game still forces your character to have a relationship with her, no matter what "choices" you chose. ironically enough for someone who had the only girl i was interested in as the first introduced in focused, she was the one neglected the most, which means i was forced to spend my entire time in this game in characters i didn't care about while the one I did was pushed away. that's quite frustrating

the game is pretty beautiful visually and the characters's writing is just fine, i believe it will improve drastically if they simply give the players more freedom with real choices and then i'll most certainly give my 5-star score

The Golden Boy is a bad game, not a terrible one but not really worth it when there are so many better games out there. The story is non-sensical and told in a very poor manner. Decisions are mostly limited to what path (love/lust) you take with each girl, the rest of the choices don't seem to matter at all. And there is no gameplay outside of that.

Render quality and character models are mediocre, and animations are present but rather poor in execution, being very basic. There is no sound as such either. At least I found no bugs, which is nice.

But, all in all, this one is a game I don't consider worth the time.

Yet another sandbox game that IN NO WAY warrants being one..... This is a completely linear game even with a sandbox, all the sandbox does is to waste a little of your time and break the flow of the game. Other than that everything about this game screams meh, the renders are meh, the writing is meh, and the girls are meh. This game is neither good nor bad, but the useless sandbox pushes it to more negative then positive for me. would have been 3 stars had to minus 1 for the sandbox.

Game Story = 6/10
Render = 10/10
Main Character Render = 8/10
Main Character Personality = 2/10
Female Characters Render = 10/10
Sex Scenes = 9.5/10


Okay, I ended up downloading the game without many expectations that it would be good, but I was surprised. The game is really good, one of the best 3D games I've ever played. The graphics are so beautiful that I barely paid attention to the story. I had to replay it twice because the graphics were impeccable. I enjoyed all the female characters in the game, especially Laura and Kate; they're all great. I did find the MC's relationships with some characters a bit forced, but of course, it's an 18+ game, and the story isn't that important. The game's animation is relatively good, but one thing I didn't like was the MC; he's a beta and a wimp. He's shy and spineless.

That's all I had to say. The game is really good, and I'll eagerly await the next update. Unfortunately, I don't have money at the moment to support it on Patreon, but I'll wait patiently. Take care.



Ok, i like

Updates with barely any content.

Tags are misleading: most are missing, and it doesn't include shota. I mean, the renders are bad and sometimes that can result in characters not depicting the age that they're meant to be, but there's no way that character is an adult, let alone in his 20s.

Besides the lackluster updates, while barely having any content, the dev started remaking it, so now supporters are just paying for the dev to rebuild a rushed straight-to-patreon game.

honestly this game has alot of potential, the charcters are good in the sense that they feel uniqe and diffrent from each other (my favorite is the mature one)
the story is simple but good (after all not every game must have life-changing lesson in it and on the other hand it is intersting to the point i will feel immarsed in it)

Animation is a stellar combination of giant boobs and big assess.
Story: It's a simple story to help get characters moving
Scripting: Generally good and effective writing.
Really enjoyed playing through this, lots of fun to be had I look forward to future development with characters. That said I wish I knew the difference between Lust and Love content (does it lock out/change paths or is it simply descriptive. Also wish I didn't have to choose between storylines to see everything. I like the characters but I much more of a player where I want to be able to access everything in one playthrough rather then replaying something constantly to get all the content. Maybe that can be fixed in a patch one day.

Been playing for a while, this review is after 4.0
The renders are amazing! The pacing of the story is fantastic. I LOVE the MC's cock, it's not shown off too much, but when it is shown it always has impact. It's not filled with sex or big-dick porn tropes where the scene always ends in the MC plowing the woman they meet. I don't know if this review is being read by the author, but if it is, well done! Please keep doing what you're doing.
If you like a slow-burn big cock MC story that slowly reviles his impressive dick this is a perfect game.

Avg: 4.14/10 [2/5]

I have no idea where these glowing reviews are coming from. This game is a COMPLETELY LINEAR SANDBOX, which means ITS NOT A SANDBOX. It's a linear story where your choices are "Be a rapey molester type" or "Get no sexual content." All as a disgusting shota insert and every woman has the same body. So, no varying visuals or love interests, choices really don't matter(outside of maybe two but we'll get there), and the crappy linear sandbox that doesn't need to exist. With an almost default UI. Man. The plot better save this. It doesn't, spoiler alert. It's typical porn trope contrivance and dialogue that feels like it was written by a robot that barely speaks English, because it probably was. And do not tell me "I would like to hear an appreciation." or "More later"(as a wipe to a later point in the day) is good English. Also when you meet Natalie it asks you if she's your stepmom? My god, these are simple things. So it becomes negligence or ineptitude. Either way, not a quality I want from a "game" developer.

You play as MC, a three foot tall gremlin boy with a two foot penis. "But there's a love path, he's not a gremlin." FALSE. every interaction resolves and moves forward as if you pick the "lust" aka molestation asshole path. We'll get back to that. It starts out with MC meeting Kate late at night, she can't sleep due to marital issues. MC's dad leaves too much and she's lonely. If you choose the Love options, MC mostly acts like a regular human and tries to be nice about things. (Outside of him coming home to jerk off imagining Kate, AND instead of showing you, the reader Kate, you get to look at MC jerk off) So, for a few days, MC and Kate do the tropey late night talks, "Should I peek on her?" bathroom visits, and whatnot. Unless you do the Lust path, then you grope her, ogle her, assault her, and any number of other things. Then Kate comes up to MC while he's sleeping to jerk him off? I know mostly it's because every shitty incest tale on this site has some dumb event where the mother type has to see MC's penis. But no matter how you look at it, it makes no sense. Anyway, no matter what that scene happens, and she gets cum in her mouth and acts like she tasted it before? But you only sleep assault her mouth in the goblin path? So other instance of poor design/pathing from the dev. THEN. The dumbest thing ever happens. Kate and MC's dad fight and she wants a divorce. So she kick MC out too and sends him to her friends house, and the rest of the game is about Eva and her friend Laura now? I could UNDERSTAND if that was part of the goblin path, but it happens no matter what. Why?

And from then on NOTHING interesting happens. You meet Melany with her lazy ass eye. Natalie, nothing of note, she was stretching and said hi. Elise is the "Everyone thinks all my LIs are the same so I'll add her with small boobs to show them." insert. Eva and Laura are actually the same as Kate. Frustrated "old" housewives that want sex. and the only way to play this is picking Lust every time. Otherwise you get three scenes, and two bits of nudity. Two of the scenes are in both paths, so you don't even get a unique experience. And I don't care about the amount or frequency of smut in an AVN, more that it's balanced. And since the choices aren't "Have sex" or "I don't like this character" instead of "Be a decent human" or "Sexually assault them/Be subhuman." It just feels, no, it IS that the developer has one intended route for you to play with 3 side characters the fade into oblivion. Lucky for you though, some of their scenes are in the pre-rework version, as most of this game is reused from the last version. Which is actively more scummy in terms of the MC. You have to "define your relationship" a bunch and rename every character, it's annoying. And whatever title you give the mother and grandmother, MC calls them that. NO ONE calls someone "stepmom." It's either their name or mom. You watch too much porn if you think otherwise.

If you're taking notes, you have: Robotic translation, mostly default UI, having to name everyone, all the models have the same bodytype, a bad story, and I'm not having fun. The only thing I didn't really talk about is the dialogue. It's your typical "MC, you're 20 but act like a 13 year old virgin, would you like to learn about sex?" garbage. Only, that was more coherent and fluid English than this throwaway incest trash. It's also like 30 minutes long, so it's short too. If you like DAZ models with boob and butt sliders to max, being a sex offender, and robotic translated dialogue, you will love this. Otherwise, move along.

This game has some promise. If you enjoy milfs and balooned proportions the visuals will hit on all the notes. I think there needs to be some more attention to detail with this game in regards to the writing. There are typos, gramatical errors, and parts of the dialog were not translated.

As of the last update this game has started to get a little better, but the writing really detracts from an otherwise good experience.

I really like this game, main character is small, but him can conquer the women were taller and older than him. I hope the game will be updated soon, and will be able to play more games like it. Thank you game publisher, please update more for the game.

One of the most beautiful game i've played so far ! And after rework it comes better and better with slowburns scenes and more deep story !
Animations are one of the best , characters are unique and art is top notch ! I will follow this game !
