The following review is based off my personal experience with playing this Game/Visual Novel... I try to be as brutally honest and detailed as I can, and these are my own opinions and thoughts, from one or more play throughs... The version this review is based on is Part 1 - 3 Plus...
At first I was a bit apprehensive about this one, but it quickly grew on me...
The visuals of the characters are good, and they all look unique... The backdrops look decent and also appear mostly unique... The inclusion of the random texts from viewers during the webcam scenes were a nice touch, even though I don't watch those sorts of things, ever... There are a few short animations now and then...
The script was, for the most part, really good, with only the occasional spelling/grammar mistakes, and tiny amount of broken English... The plot revolves around a male protagonist who, at first lusts after his girlfriends mother, but in the long term (depending on choices) it begins to turn into a romance... All while also balancing out his other relationships with his girlfriend, and a long time female friend... It starts off as blackmail, with the mother, but slowly turns into much more...
There is a form of NTR with the husband of the main love interest... He is a scum bag husband who treats his wife like a typical sexist male pig... Sorry, was I overly angry about that jerk? But he's not really that much in the way of the protagonist... I never experienced him cock blocking anytime during the story, and only near the end does he treat the protagonist sorta badly, with regards to his daughters relationship with the protagonist... He's more there as a reminder of why the mother character needs to feel loved, feel sexy, and be properly cared for, by someone else... I was apprehensive about the inclusion of NTR at all in this one, but it turns out he doesn't really get in the way of much and doesn't stop the protagonist from doing what he wants, really... The tags for this game says avoidable NTR, and I guess my choices avoided it, because I never even came close to experiencing it... He was so totally un-interested in having sex with his own wife, even when she tried, so for me, there was no NTR, for my playthrough... But from what I've read, there is NTR with the school teacher and his girlfriend, once again, depending on the choices you make... I apparently avoided it entirely, thank goodness...
The female friend is a probably the only real moment where I sort of questioned if I was truly going to enjoy this VN/Game or not... Because there is an introduction of mind reading with that character... Which took, what was already bordering reality, into definitely beyond reality... You eventually begin to learn more about her, and actually I was kind of wishing she would become a love interest for the protagonist, but they became more like really good friends, with a common interest, and some side benefits... Of course that depends on your choices, hehe...
I really feel torn by this whole VN/Game, as I want to root for all 3 primary female characters in this one... The girl friend is the kind of girlfriend we all want to have, kind, caring, nice, attentive, loving, supportive, and willing to go the extra step to help keep the relationship alive... I kind of feel a bit sorry for her sometimes, because the primary premise of this VN/Game is her mother, and not her... And although the female friend starts off as a pushy character, who more or less slightly blackmails the protagonist into getting what she needs and wants, she actually turns out to be a kindred spirit for the protagonist... Having the same interest as he does... I actually began to care for her happiness as well... Man, why do stories like these have to get my romantic bug all fluttery and in a twist? I wanted the best for all 3 women... That just goes to show you how well the story was told... To grip at your heartstrings now and then... I'm just a sucker for romance stories...
There is quite a lot of content in this VN/Game... A lot more then I expected... Here I figured I was just reading/playing 3 parts of the beginning of a VN/Game, when it ended up taking me practically all afternoon and evening to read and enjoy, the current content...
Overall, this VN/Game starts off a bit fishy, but gets better and better as you go along... And there are times, when those choices completely matter on how the story plays out, so be aware that being forceful and hyper focusing on only one character, might not always be the right way to go... Depending on your tastes of course... The writing, even though it had some mistakes now and then, told the story well... I enjoyed the dialogue and character interactions... I like how you start off feeling one way about a character, and seeing how over time that feeling can develop into something different... As this is only parts 1 through 3, it is most likely still under development... Will I revisit this one? Definitely... But only when large chunks of content get added, because I hate reading/playing the good VN/Games in smaller piece mail releases... I look forward to seeing how this one continues to develop...
