Honest Review:
I posted this review elsewhere under the Review second in Steam. But as I truly would like to help the creators as well as a possible reader for this somewhat good game. I would like to post it here as well.

With a little work, this could have truly been a game worth talking about but as it is right now, it fails and I truly felt that I should help where I can. My review is everything below here. I have my original review as well as my updated review after it where it says "UPDATE".



--------------------------------------------------------
Oddly a fun game. Sure, I wish the main character wasn't a typical 'mount anything that moves' character but this game has some promise. I truly would like to finish this game in a week or so when I have some more free time.

----------------
UPDATE: I changed my review and although I truly did like the start and my post above, enough time has passed that I had to change my review to a negative one instead. Let me update my review from above with both the good and the bad below,

Good:
1. This game is absolutely beautiful. Not only are the characters truly are stunning to look at, but the atmosphere as well as the outer environments were nicely done. Just by the visuals and nothing else, I give this game an A+.
2. The characters are not only well done, but are done good enough to have a reader not only like them, but other than the character of Tracy, a player would feel sympathy for their heartaches and truly wish the well for them. An easy "B" and this could have been an "A" but I will explain on this l later in the BAD section.

The character of Alice, I actually was perfectly fine with sacrificing a major tool to help her and I just met her in the story. I'm glad to both see what I lost and why she was truly worth caring about to loose such a valuable item that you sorta needed to keep.
3. The length. I am so tired, so very tired for spending $10-20 for a game that last an hour with a tadbit more to find an extra or two. So far, I am eight (8) hours into the game and I haven't even finished it yet.
4. The punctuation and writing style was clearly done by a naturally English speaking person and this shows. There is no "Google Translation" or a mass of typos and miswritings. A reader not just could truly understand the storyline, but also not be bothered by the writing style.

Now the Bad
I had to change my review from above solely for these few. They almost screamed at me to change my review and it bothered me to the point to write how to fix them. I am truly hoping that they add a patch (one that I would have to pay for, I would gladly pay $10-25 solely to see the same flowstyle in characters done in a format that I will place below.) to fix this game. It could have been so much better but it fails to do so at this time.

And now, the Bad
1. Your character.
You started off decently but once he found his power, he turned solely into a full blown sex offender. He used a gift to coerce his roommates and motherly icon to not just sleep with, but he uses them over and over again to help with a sexual gratification, over and over again.

He could have used his gift to help those who are around him but no, it is purely what was in his pants that matter. Even with one of the main antagonist, who could easily be seen as a badgal from the start, your character would rather grope her than to just safely ignore her and hide his power from her. Instead, he pretty much puts a target on his back to do his 'gift'.

2. Your helpers, even knowing nothing bad has happened revolving them yet, the whole way that the main character is just okay with them screams for the "Cartoony" character pointing at the helper, then to the protagonist, and then to the helper and yell "Come On".

Even knowing nothing bad has happened yet with them, how could the protagonist just be okay with them without so much as a second though.

I know that this is clearly a porn game. Apparently anything adult based has to be, but still though - how bad would it be to have your character be both 'sexual' but also be helpful with his gift as well.

For instance, would it be so bad that instead of being a complete horndog, could he perhaps use his power to
1. Help the Landlady with the her morning with the future's loss of her husband.
2. Help Alice truly find herself and help her by just being a friend to her instead of raping her each night.
3. The neighbor, perhaps help her in her sleep to inner realize that perhaps her old friend next door, your landlady, could still be a great friend for her and that she doesn't need to be a 'trophy' wife to have a happy life.

But no, your character treats all four girls as nothing more than cumbuckets. I have yet to see a scene, and yes, I am referring to the decision with Alice at the party, where you don't put your 'little man' ahead of anything else. If others get hurt, well that's okay then.

--------------------------------------

What I would do to fix this WITH A PAID PATCH, if need be.
Your main character uses his gift to HELP those around him. Once again, I know this is a porn game, but even good porn tends to have a decent plotline and ideas. And just because something starts as a porn game, that is why it is a game and that is to make decisions....just because you CAN do something, doesn't mean that you HAVE to do something and some choice would be nice.

With that being said, why do you have to sleep with everyone. What if you just wanted to be with Alice or just the Landlady or the like...why does a player HAVE to do EVERYTHING? Since you are forced to do pretty much everything, it flat out kills a player for playing through a second or a third time to see what else would happen if they changed their decision.

To be honest with you, the ONLY decision that I truly felt that I had was to help Alice at the part or not. With the way the story is going, I wouldn't be surprised at all if nothing would really change much. You probably would keep your one item, Alice won't care for you nearly as much but you would just loose the item a different way and Alice would still sleep with you, all of the same probably.

2. Yes, I admit it too, sex is somewhat fun to read sometimes and is one of the bigger (but not the main) reasons why I would prefer an "Adult" game but if sex is all of the time and within every other scene, it becomes boring and I now just pass the scenes and on to the next non-sex ones.

It is nice to read something other than sex and with the plotline, it would be nice to see how IT ends eventually.

Why does every sexual based game regard your character as a 'd-bag' that only cares about sex. Why does every single girl just be okay with it. Not just okay, but pleased to see it? Does it have to be this way? Why in this game, would the virgin girl Alice not just okay with you sleeping with someone else but willing to join a threeway?

Why is YOUR character always need to be that way. What would be so wrong with having both, enjoy sex for a LITTLE while but use his power to help/or even mess with others in their dreams....that would be fun to watch and to play.

-

Also, how is it that your character could just have sex, over and over again, and still be physically able to keep doing so. I'm a middle aged adult but even I know that it is PHYSICALLY IMPOSSIBLE to both be sexually strong but to be able to spray so much with an orgasm.

Also if a person has had sex within an hour, I find it extremely hard to read that he would just be okay to go again, and then again afterwards and with different people.

This sorta just bothers me and although there is possibly a few other things, these just bothered me the most.

To the game makers, I will write a concluding paragraph below

--------------------------------------------
Dear Game makers, as you started with such a great idea and premise, could you now then add a decent storyline and an ability to use your power to do something to HELP, and not hurt others? Also, what is so wrong with just being with ONE girl instead of sleeping with whatever and why does the protagonist need to always be a sex crazed "Dbag"?

Assuming you didn't already know in this game you are the Son of Mrs Turner, bother of Tracy and Alice, and Neighbor is Turners sister/your aunt. This is an incest game that was censored for this release because of patreon. Just saying that because it may change your view on some of your negatives, or positives lol.

I honestly found the game really good other than a bug or two. The only real gripe I have is the trailer they used making it seem like a completely different game. I knew it wasn't that going into it but the game could have been so much more if it was.

I honestly didn't know but after thinking about it, it's fine and I can completely see where they changed the character name types, even before you told me that. Also, this game wasn't so bad, it just could have been so much better is all.

It still is better than a slew of others out there with this type of gameplay but it could have been so much better is all.

The problem with changing the relationships is that then there'd be no problem with the MC and Alice being together since they'd not be related at all...yes I know they really are but...

I know this is sad but I honestly like the storyline better this way. They just could have gave the Landlady a real name to use with Landlady though. One that she would be called often instead of just "Landlady" and some mild dialog changes would be nice to flow with the story change.

But Landlady works for me at least.
I knew there was some relationship between them all even if the title was changed. Tracy looks like she was an offspring from an different father than the MC and Alice as Tracy is more Black than the others.
I purchased this game in hopes that it would have good and evil paths or choose your relationship to follow, like College Kings, but I see nothing but a serial rape sim. The MC is sick and needs to be stuck in a dark corner of a prison somewhere.

There are definitely good and evil paths, just good and evil are relative I guess. The corruption ending is quite depraved, and not for the faint of heart, and the perfect ending was very wholesome and heartwarming for me. Helps to have the family relations restored with a patch to better illustrate the difference between the endings. :divlove:
Not going to argue that the MC is a super creepy perv, and if I could change one thing about the game, it would be that. But there are pretty distinct levels of creepy perv you can choose. :steamthumbsup:

Now that makes sense now.

Each time, the main dude calls the Ms. "landlady", it just feels odd. But if you replace landlady with "mom", than all scripts make sense. And same as all those sisters, how the hell you live with 2 stranger girls with no relations at all?

If it's incxst, it all explains the plots now.

Thanks!
