VN - Ren'Py - A Mother's Love [Part 1-14 Plus] [OrbOrigin]

- Story is quite engaging and well written as well, maybe I could say there are a few "happy" coincidences throughout the game but it's bearable, choices do matter here, overall it was great.

- About characters, my congrats to the devs, they're great, very well written. MC is great (I know he can be annoying at times but he's an 18 years old dude that just fell in love so it's understandable). Nicole model, man.. she's one of the most gorgeous woman I've seen in AVNs (easily in my top five), Marylin is fkin annoying but I think she was intended to be that way so ...nice job, John is a great antagonist, although, at times he looks like Bobby Rotten from LazyTown xD. Every character is, at least, good in this game.

- Sadly, No music/sound at all.

-Renders/Animations: Renders are very good, however, we only have "looping renders" as animations.

- Others: I think the same game with slight changes with John as MC could be interesting actually, you know the story of how power corrupts a man, something like that with this kind of writing, it would be great.

So I'd give this game an 8/10, It's completely worth checking out.

A Mother's Love is interesting gamethat is worth of playing. Visuals are fine, writting is mostly fine , character models (other than LIs) are also good. It is not GOAT by any means, but it is one of the proper AVNs, not just another porn game.

Visuals: 6/10
Writting: 6/10 ( later episodes 4/10)
Lewds: 7/10
Characters: 7/10
Sound 0/10

Pros:
- main LI (Nicole) is well written and looks great, story is clearly centred around her and it shows, best part of the game are with her in it,
- John Heavens - main antagonist in the story, well written, not one-dimensional, can be a bit cartoony sometimes,
- Abigail - fun character with proper backstory, interesting personality and rather fun interactions (not even lewds but overall).
- overall writting range from meh to very good (mostly it is fine), sometimes it is great but in the next part it get boring and back to great...
- lots of choices (meaningful ones) that helps with branching
- points system seems to work quite well (you can do low/high corruption runs with many variables)

Cons:
- overall plot is not very interesting at the start and does not offer any twists/mysteries untill way later into the story, plot lacks focus, 180 switch from romancing/blackmailing LI to finding John secrets (kinda dull part of the game), repetitive the longer it goes,
- MC is written as a very self-centred and self-serving person, even on low corruption / romance path he does not think about other people much (his wants and needs are all he seems to foucs on),he has creepy and immature/childish moments (wanting to drop from school few weeks from graduation, duuuuuh) but you can get use to it, starts relationship with LI by blackmailing her, sleezy pervert that tries to act like adult person. Gets better in the later part of the game.
- Marilyn - your psychic friend/camgirl. She starts as a goofy friend (mostly ok-ish character) but with time turns into needy creep (she is also lesbian that has a mega crush on LI), gets more annoying with story progression. Worst character in the whole game. I think she supposed to be quirky/funny but comes of as a annoying brat (also horny creep at the same time).
- Chloe - starts promising but quickly falls flat, being sidelined by main LI (she feels like a secondary NPC not your gf), her NTR part of the story ( avoidable) makes her look even worse. Lots of unrealised potential.
- whole part of the story about uncovering Johns dirty secrets, working for him is plain and boring, story gets weaker the further you get.

Story 9/10 I had low expectations for story but it was a great one since I wanted to know what would happen next are they gonna have a Happy ending I want to know

Characters 7/10 some are interesting such as main li and the antagonist but otherwise the others not so much but they are decent

I had dodged this game for a long time but finally played it and enjoyed it but hope it has a good ending because age-gap love stories I have experienced have no fitting ending ,Hope this is not abandoned also it's a netori title which is my link ....

nice storyline ,love the renders and would like more like this keep up the good work P.S would like more content with marilyn and abigal

This game isn't perfect, and the start is wobbly and development is slow but the game is a gem if you like corruption/netori and focusing on one LI with a hint of optional NTR (which is NOT the focus of the game).

Pros:
- Really good netori, the start is flat out bad because the MC acts slimy/creepy with him blackmailing the LI into sex. But the game picks up after the first few parts and the seeing their relationship develop is a treat.
- Two ways to play the game, there's a love route and a corruption route, both have basically the same stories outside of some exclusive scenes and dialogue to each route.
- While development is slow, the game has been out for over 5 years and there's plenty of content to enjoy and at the point of writing this review a new part (P15) is coming soon.
- GOATED model for LI.
- If you like a soap-opera-esque story then you are in for a treat, the story should NOT be taken too seriously and only taken on face value to enjoy it.
Cons:
- The game is old and it shows in the older parts. The animations have only 2-4 frames in the old parts and even in the new parts the quality of animation is not up to par with modern games. (still the scenes are really hot because of the plot and quality of model)

So many 5 star reviews...however, in my opinion, this is a long way from 5 stars.
I hit a 'Game Over' screen multiple times at the very start [whilst sneaking out of my girlfriends room] because I didn't click fast enough on a screen prompt, and then another 'Game Over' when I agreed to accept the mother's financial bribe, to stay away from her daughter. I was close to giving up at this point.
But the protagonist is a slimy, creepy, twisted sort of pervert, who blackmails his way into the mother's pants...it's all very crude and unromantic. To be honest, I felt ashamed of myself to be playing the game at all...I started questioning my own morality.
The writing is rubbish, the story nonsensical at times, the gamer-girl who can read minds is just ludicrous!
5 stars?...never in a month of Sundays.

It started fine and was really good in someplaces. My favorite episode was the beach episode when both mc and nicole was having most fun though the developer turned even that period in guilt trip for them. Frankly I don’t get it, it starte of corrupting a married woman to fall for you but now it is becoming a harem game for- John??? I mean man even an anime protagonist have less superpower than john. And he is now going to fuck mc's mom. I really feel bad only for mc's dad. Nicole is not an interesting charachter she folds easily. Chloe has bad taste in men mc and beeman even with spell or whatever. Also what is the explanation of magic?? Only marylin can use it and no one in the world? What type of magic is that? Abigail story had no connection. Beeman storyline was stupid. Only good thing about this game had been mc and nicole's sex scene but it is getting less and less as the game progresses. Maybe the developer should just change the game and make John mc frankly because he has a better storyline then mc. Like harvey weinstein.

review will change depends on next future updates
It was a decent game up until the end of the update.

Exciting story and very well told. Great characters. Impossible not to empathize with him and her. Unfortunately it seems like we are close to the end and I don't want it to end!!!

When it's finished, it deserves a remake!

Obviously, everyone has an opinion. Mine is that this AVN rocks. I love the story, the characters, and the mystery.

There are A LOT of choices that have major impact on the story. Props for that alone. Lots of branching paths!

At its heart it's a love story. I am super rooting for the MC and Nicole to have a happy ending. I hope the dev takes care of them, because I've become attached. If the dev can close this one out with a happy end, I would put this AVN on an S-Tier list. The renders are good, the sex is hot, and characters are deep /intriguing.

Minor gripes... The story goes against the grain on some tropes, which some may not like. I wish the MCs penis was a little more detailed. No music (however there is a walkthrough mod that fixes this rather well).

All in all, what sets this one apart is the slow build love story and the variety of choices that encourage multiple saves and replays. Also, the option to impregnate. Other developers fail to take on this challenge and just tack it on an ending, so big big kudos to that!

Good luck dev! Doing a great job!

Story is a corruption one, really paint by the numbers kind of thing.

This game started developed 5 years ago and it looks rough. Everything looks extremely dated and the animations can barely be called that.

Recommend skipping this one.

A mother's love is a decent game with nice-looking characters for the most part. The story itself is good but has faltered over the course of updates, as if the author wrote themselves into a corner and isn't sure how to progress. However, I really hope they can pull it back. On the topic of the writing, there are spelling errors scattered throughout, as well as some sentence structure oddities that, while not distracting from the overall story, are noticeable at times and pull you out of the moment. Visually, there isn't much to say; it looks alright but could be better or worse. The set dressing is nice, and character models look decent, though many renders suffer from poor scene lighting. Numerous scenes in dark environments were poorly lit, making it difficult to discern what was being shown. Overall, I would recommend the game if the premise and visuals appeal to you. Rating: 3.5/5.

Started out fine, but got really stale and beyond the writers abilities. Where to start I honestly could complain about the MC being a bitch, that Marilyn is is still relevant to the story, that Beeman is apparently a superhuman with more plot armor than a webnovel protagnist, or that we have to see John's and the MC's dad stupid faces at all. However, all those pale in comparison to the fact that the plot has gotten really repetitive revolve around a single villain John. Now the story has dragged around where the MC always thinks he's close to getting John only for him to find out that he's nowhere near that and a cliff ending. This has gone on and on for a few chapters now. That and the cartoony nature of John (don't see how people think he's particularly smart) make the story dull. At this point even Nicole, one of the best MILF models, is not enough for me to come back. Now I hope someone can take Nicole and put her in a better game.

When this game started I thought it was pretty kinky and good. However we are talking about what 2019? The fact that it is still going boggles my mind.

That being said, I believe its time to conclude this "affair", more like take this old dinosaur out back and plug it.

The game is old and looks old, plays old and was based on what was alright at the time. Really, this game has nothing going for it save a pretty good looking MILF.

The other characters are mostly ugly and boring and the plot itself was never very good and has been drawn out to create some sort of intrigue....guess what...it was slightly for maybe the first 5 parts then it really just became more of the same.

Writing was never bad but also not very good, I also believe due to this games age, much of the game should have been reworked including the dialogue, but it was just left to carry on as a milking cow for the developer IMO.
Rating is poor now, simply because there is much better out there. TBH, these ratings need to expire IMO or have an archive date so new players can know what they walking into. Here is a lot of vanilla stuff with a lot more reading for those who are really angry at themselves...

[SHORT REVIEW] [SPOILER ALERT]

A Mother’s Love is not your average adult game, it is actually a thriller themed AVN.

At first, I thought this game was just a normal corruption game. But the longer I play it, the more I question everything, including myself. Am I the bad guy here? Was everything I did right? Should I have just listened to Nicole’s offers and taken the money? But if I took the money and stop seeing Chloe, she then would’ve become Mr. Beeman’s victim which is worse than death. If I managed to convince Nicole to do my biddings, it means that I am cheating on Chloe. John, Nicole’s wife and Chloe’s dad, isn’t what people think about him. He’s also cheating on his wife but Nicole always praises him high despite not knowing what’s happening behind her back. Not only cheating, he’s also a madman in the business. At this point, all you have to do is to keep both Chloe and Nicole from John and Beeman. But questions after questions always showing up, how do I plan to keep them both? How much secrecy do I have to lay on every actions I’ll make? What if I get caught in the middle of the act?. The MC also happen to join John’s real estate company, just to investigate his unusual behaviors. He is right, nothing seems right in this city, everyone is keeping a very dark secret.

Four stars for now because I really want to see how the endings will play out in the future. Oh, also I hate Marylin, she's annoying as hell.

This is properly good. Well balanced storytelling with simple choices that have minor but meaningful outcomes. I didn't expect the story be so full of intrigue involving the character, John. Genuinely hope he gets what's coming to him in the end. I can't stand when evil characters are free to abuse good characters in a story and I think it would probably ruin the VN for me if he gets away with this actions. I also hope the Dev has thought of something more than Stockholm Syndrome or a magical orgasmic cock to reason out why he can continue to get away with what he does and why so many women let him do it.

Anyways, this is such a good story that I'm going through it again to unlock the NTR content for Chloe. I'm curious if that changes anything in the main story or not. This has truly become one of my favorite titles and while I wish the MC had a little more backbone with regards to his parents keeping secrets from him that seem to go deeper than the events currently in the end of this, I found him to be quite likeable. The models are excellent, animations are decent and I only experienced a few errors. Good work.

As always I wish the best for the Dev in this endeavor and I plan to contribute when I can. Leave a review in favor or against. Give good feedback to help the dev out and if you liked this VN consider throwing a bit of cash their way.

Even though "A Mother's Love" seemed kinda silly story with all its crazy stuff going on, I gotta admit, I kinda liked it for some reason. Some parts felt like they were just there to stretch out the story, like that whole weird part of the nurse, the history teacher and the vase of ashes. The interactions with the side characters were odd, and they were so over-the-top that they didn't really grab my interest: Chloe is cute but too innocent, Marilyn is funny but annoying, Silvia's way too submissive, and the bad guy is just plain gross (I can't stand that guy).
The visual aspect is of average quality, with some short animations for the sex scenes. There's no music or sound effects, and the dialogue has some typos. But despite all the flaws, this visual novel somehow hits you right in the feels. Nicole's character is the highlight for me - at first this voluptuous beauty may seem severe but deep down she possesses sweetness, motherly love, and that mix of innocence and seduction that makes her a captivating character. The forbidden love story between the MC and Nicole is what keeps you hooked, even through all the silliness with the other characters.
Overall, "A Mother's Love" is a decent adult visual novel. The romance between Nicole and the MC really tugs at your heartstrings, so after finishing part 13 (I did the low-corrupt route) I'm eager to know the outcome of their story.

Love the Game has to be one of the best i have played in awhile i was very happy when the creator decided to come back and finish the game like the story and the dynamic between nicole and mc and chloe as well hate burman and john the story is intresting and its taking a good turn

Somehow i thought this game was abandoned but VOILA! How did i not see this one?? Guess i've been away for too long
This game's practically the best netori/corruption game I've read, I'd give this around my top 5. Nicole's so goddamn irresistible and I just love how she gets so meek and feisty.

One of the best Netori games I've ever played. The renders are amazing and the story flows so smoothly with also having consequences for your actions such as the Girlfriend being taken by the fat teacher and making interactions in the GF's family awkward. 15/10
