VN - Ren'Py - Completed - A Promise Best Left Unkept [Bonus S2 Ep 9-11] [Hangover Cat]

The art is really good but as others have said, quite boring
Dont really hate on NTR since it's all optional when it comes to novels, just skip it all. Or better yet, just view the image files so you dont need to wait for it (which I recommend for this game)

I usually don't do that because I like to think more effort goes into these kinds of games, and at some point it gives us the options to make it more interesting. Unfortunately that doesn't happen here and the story is the same ol', same ol'

At the end of the day, it's just another fap game n it doesnt set itself apart from being the same as others in it's category

Positives: intoxicatingly good NTR, great uncensored art some with fluid animations to boot. Storyline is as piquant as the characters which make the sex scenes that much more impactful.

Music is enjoyable and matches well with the scenes; the SFX (voice and plaps) are fantastically executed which add great flavour to the game.

Negatives: novel is steering dangerously close to being a kinetic one, void of player choices that meaningfully affect the direction of the story.

For example (this part contains spoilers!) The rule thing is fun (between Luca and Laura) but it would be nice for the player to be able to choose which rules are manipulated throughout their exchanges rather than it being done for us by the writer.

My other issue is one specific character: again spoilers Sandra. She derails Laura's story in my opinion and becomes too involved by the end. The whole focus should have been kept on Laura, the MC Harry and Luca. Bringing the mother into the mix makes the dynamic weird and makes the plot lose its original purpose and direction.

I would rather she didn't exist at all or was never spoken about like Harry's parents. The final sex scenes of some endings are weird and are a boner-killer simply because of her. Incest was unnecessary and didn't add anything to the game.

Would have given the game 5/5, but because of her I have to drop it to 4/5. Her involvement felt really forced and completely unnecessary, which is sad. The chair scene would have been perfect without her.

Overall: if you don't like NTR, I don't know why you'd play this game and then complain about that - it's the main premise of it. It's like disliking horror movies and then actively going out of your way to watch them, to obviously complain afterwards. It's a waste of time.

If you do like NTR, this game is a lot of fun. Hopefully the writer can make our choices matter so we can interact with the story more effectively.

Author can do good work i can see that with new game but this one no sadly no.

Why 3 stars:

MC and FMC is boring even asshole is boring.

Many sex scenes boring other than few and sadly other rushed by fast corruption.

She falls too easly to asshole.

Story rushed and pacing is meh like after one groping theres sex scene like where handjob blowjob and other things before sex ?

Every character is dumb and have no iq their iq is even less than room tempature lol.

They know asshole is asshole yet hey trush him amazing.

Asshole blackmails FMC so easly that i wanna cry she dosent even try to counter blackmail him.

When cast like this i have no pity for anyone i cant even feel anything here not joking its gets boring pretty fast even as a NTR this is little too classic already done many many times like push until she accept it and ruins everything until now lol like why ? but no one knows.Really i have no pity MC he deserves everything if you cant choose your friend then you deserve to fail sorry.Big question here how the hell asshole get this job ? like Boss of this company is retard cant see this guy being %100 suspicious ?

This is why i give 3star not 4 or 5 normally my score was 4 maybe i change that in the future but for now this is 3 star sorry but like other game is good really good that feels natural but this one rushed and pushed too much to thing happen so if you have time play it if you dont then dont waste your time.

What a waste after playing Clumsy one i though this one is same quality with that one but nope you need to turn your brain off or have fetish this things like to enjoy it but as for me nope this is bad.

Like other 10000 or even 100000 NTR content there this game does same thing blackmail non stop sex then boom smarth chick turns into moronic slut this is bad really bad I know if you dont like it dont playid words exist here but this is not bad game but its just Average one with same story with all other NTR games-novels-manga-hentai nothing diffirent One guy bully asshole does whatever he want and you know what ? Nothing bad happens to him they sell NTR is better than vanilla or Netori they even say NTR is realistic bıt this is same like other.

SORRY i dont hate game or Author for me Clumsy one is masterpiece but i am just tired of blond haired asshole characters ruining good stories or games really tired this stupid ganguros always does same thing they drug FMC rape them blackmail them ruin their lives even use dangerous drugs then nothing bad happens while MC suffers from this event lihe WHY?

I give 4 star for game not for story sorry but i cant story is hardly 3 star I am not biggest fan of NTR stories but i dont deny good game here if game is good then its ok for me so good luck if you wanna play it its good as fap art theme but is story meh turn your brain off and just fap.

total classic... NTRMAN you got some competition here. This game gave me the same vibe which I got from Adelaide Inn. even tho so far i wont put it above Adelaide Inn as this is not completed but it goes like this and won't make a mistake in future, there are chances i might prefer this over Adelaide Inn...

[Review of v0.8.3]

The currently implemented ending got me depressed for a whole day. What a journey. Great job! The art and animations are excellent, the scenes steamier than a sauna and the path to total corruption was well done.

That said, it's not deserving of five stars. MC is far too clueless for credibility (at least for me), and some of his scenes with Aya feel too superficial. Also, the choices currently available don't have much of an impact, except for one which doesn't have its ending implemented yet, so it plays more like a kinetic novel than a game.

Finally, and this is only a sidenote, independent of my review, I hoped we could have a way to help the MC realize what's going on and go on a path consisting of finding ways to get out of that situation while she keeps succumbing whenever we make the wrong choices. I know that implementing such a thing is wishful thinking, but one can hope nonetheless.

TL;DR: if you're a fan of NTR you definitely need to play this, especially if total humiliation is your kink (not my thing, but I could appreciate the way it was done). If you're not a fan of NTR but can dissociate yourself fully from the MC then the sex scenes are totally worth it.

Interesting and fun at first but goes downhill the more paths get added. They add nothing to the story because there is no variety in them or the outcome. It's just like watching Sisyphus roll the stone only to get crushed in the exact same way. Just a weird illusion of choice.

2D artwork is great though gotta give it credit.

Had the potential to be interesting with a protag who isn't the typical cuck that straight up deserves to have his life ruined but its ruined by the author bending space and time pretty much to fit the antagonist to matter what happens. Author would greatly benefit from planning out his paths better rather than whimsically writing update to update.

Maybe play it once but don't waste your time exploring other paths or following the story afterwards theres no depth to it.

5 stars!
BUT.. This has some cruel NTR/deceiving domination elements.
Need to explain that a little maybe so let's begin with the story:
A blonde dude who is working under you hates you, hated you from school days. A hunk with a good sized dick with mother and trust issues, and relationship issues. Basically he just wanna prove that no one can be trusted, not even if you're holy as Harry the MC.

You the MC will make a fuck-up that could easily be covered up by, I'm sorry I didn't know! But instead it is on espionage level and yada yada, so to make the story work they are all idiots and blackmail established.
He blackmails the girl to play a game with her, and whoever makes the other cum can set a rule. Now they can set rules however they want, they can even change the rules. For example, You can not ask this permanently, you have to do this before that etc. So it's not really hard to set a rule that negates all activity all together. The girl could just set a rule, leave me alone, now and forever, permanently and be done with it.
So the rule game kinda breaks the fun, and how they discuss the rule is always Luca's win and so forth. I like the idea though but poorly done still..

Now the rules aside, the girl is quite slow to admitting she likes it. She clearly does, and her rules do show that she does. I feel the gap where she betrays MC is way too late. Maybe this is because of ending 4? Not sure but, if so then change that ending , not a good one anyway and the least one fleshed out, basically you fail ending.

All the ideas else in this game is so good, everything is well done! Scenes and all, I just think the whole layout could've been better arranged.

I wanted to end it here but feel I've just complained about the things I wanted better so the good!

Amazing scenes, some truly clever scenes, like a bed and a laptop, it could be done. Brilliant thinking really! That alone is almost worth giving this game 5 stars! The originality!

Even if she is so bloody hung up on loving Harry, and not surrendering, as much as I hated it, it is also a sweet thing to prolong, not all bad of course!

Yess, another bad thing is the writing, yet also good I guess? Luca talks a bit like a 18 - 20 year old hiphopper. which really doesn't fit his looks, job or character.

But 5 stars coz this is just a really good NTR, if you like the darker side of NTR. Where the girl(s) will eventually betray you royally. To the extent that you break.

Even with all things that are bad, this game is still 5 stars, it's just.. original in it's own way. I think he wanted to do more with the mother, felt bit stressed. I hope he will re-do it the way he wanted to. Or maybe in another game, with those elements. The loving betrayal didn't work and I think we will see that in his next game . Presuming hangover cat is a he of course

This NTR VN is a gem. I don't usually like VN and would just skip watch the scene but this one really have an amazing concept of starting choosing either the sissy MC perspective or everyone's perspective. Start of with the sissy MC perspective really like the mystery from his perspective add to the drama. Really great VN, will support them when it lauch at STEAM, ( hope Aya's storyline will be ready by then . ) highly recomended A+++ 10/10

I'm indifferent about the whole ntr genre it doesn't add or subtract from the game for me, I'm just here for the corruption. It started off quite well, I do like the art style although the animation quality was very minimalistic. Over time the writing has gone quite stale, the art has seen some improvement but is inconsistent, and the animations haven't really improved at all.

Having played most of the top titles on this site I now have a much better perspective on what other developers/writers/artists in this field are capable of. Unfortunately, this game is still a ways off in overall quality before it can be compared with them.

First of all, i'm pretty generous with star ratings so this doesn't mean I think it's a perfect game. It has things I dislike, but the ones I enjoyed far outweighed those.

Cons:
- Too much tropey ntr stuff. Weird fixation with condoms filled with semen that look like water balloons. Cliche scenes with the girl fucking her lover while talking on the phone to her boyfriend, or even right in front of him, being covered by some curtain.
- Unsatisfactory endings. Plus some characters tend to lose their aim as the game advances. Specially Laura, who at some point starts losing her shit and sort of becomes fuckmeat.
- I don't really like blackmailing, I prefer when the cheating starts more out of desire and lust. But that's personal preference IG.

Pros:
- Well thought of, patiently developed ntr. The girl doesn't instantly transform from a naive lady to a sex crazed animalistic bitch (tho she does end there).
- Not a lot of gamey filler stuff. No grinding, no minigames, (almost) no arbitrarily locked out content. Yes, there's not a lot of hugely influential decisions either, but there's enough to customize your experience a little bit, and I'm ok with that as long as the content we get is plentysome and good quality. Which in this case it is.
- Long, kinky, intense scenes, with very good art.
- A bit cliche, but at least characters have kind of a distinct personality. Not award winning material, but not the same old generic characters either. MC is a bit crappy tho. But that's not that bad, I don't really play these games to watch the cuckolded dude lol, i'm more interested in the other parties involved.

All in all, excellent game. While nothing hugely creative or groundbreaking, it's very easy and enjoyable to get absorbed in the game. I considered giving it 4 stars, but in the end, it was a wholly enjoyable experience and overall one of my favorite games in here, 5 stars it is.

Rating is based on the content up to the hotel.

The game so far seems very good.

Characters:

Laura - An actually well executed character, who does not fall into the first trap and immediately give up. Looks for solutions and has her inner fights and all the stupid cliches from the usual NTR games have an explanation from her POV, which make it more believable.

MC - Yes, perhaps a bit stupid and naive as others have said but far better than the completely faceless MCs we usually get. That little bit of extra for Harry is already enough to make me feel bad for him, which I usually don't feel for the MCs in this genre.

Lucas - The biggest surprise for me. I expected a very boring character, who approaches things (laying traps) in a very one dimensional way and would then corrupt the character in predictable way. But the way he has executed the things to get where he wants to has been an enjoyable ride so far.

Aya - While I do not have many words for her character, she is an extremely enjoyable one and can make you really laugh.

Since I already commented on how plot is executed partly through the characters, I would just like to add that the way the story flows is good. It had a good build up that did not overstay its welcome. It did initial corruption in believable way and I really liked the game that goes between Lucas and Laura with the rules. I would say that addition alone already makes the scenes and situation a lot more exciting.

I like some of the other works by this game Dev, I thought I would actually enjoy this but I simply cant relate to harry, he is an idiot the choices simply dont matter. I don't usually comment or review, but Choices need to matter, until they do I will make the simple Choice to give it a 1 star.

The only reason I'm giving this 2 stars is because of the art even though the dev doesn't make it himself and instead commissions 3 different artists to make it for him. I tried to give this VN a chance, I really did but at this point it's safe to say that I'm over it.

TL/DR: If you are looking for mindless fapping with nice art but a mediocre story then this is for you. If you're looking for a good branching story with ntr elements where your choices actually matter then don't waste your time.

IN-DEPTH REVIEW

I'm have played this game since the day it been released so let I make this straight. This is a visual novel game so I care more about the VISUAL and the STORY. Beside the fantastic visual, it's disappointed.

At the begining and the middle of the story, they gave us a glimpse of hope that we can actually do SOMETHINGS. And that is the main reason why I chose to play it because almost NTR games neither give no fucking shit about your choices and lead the story to NTR route nor they let you play as a nice guy then end the game (basically forcing you to play the NTR route which lead to the previous statement).

The game (at the first and the middle of the game) let us acknowledge the cheating but still gave us ways to make things right. But then we slowly realise that we aren't. Your choices will be meaningless by the end. Every choices you had made will lead to shitty outcomes.

I know there are 1 route, 1 FUCKING route can be consider a GOOD ENDING, but i don't thing make your partner's life miserable and go ape shit with the big dick guy is a FUCKING GOOD ENDING.

I hate the game for giving me the glimpse of hope, hope that we can change the outcome, that we can have a happy ending and then throw them out the window.

The worse part is if you focus in the story, you know that we can hardly have a good ending in future updates.

In the end, i'm disappointed because this game has the potential to be different from there kinds, and it was if you play it from the first release. Now this a game is about a woman deprave herself into sex. It don't let you save her or anythings so just download a gallery unlock to fap. It have FANTASTIC art though. (sorry about my gramma, english is not my mother language)

And i'm still DISAPPOINTED for being trick :<

The inconsistent art style and predictable plot is one thing, but the main reason I'm giving it three stars is because its the classic case of a protagonist I cannot respect. Once the game is completed it'll be easier to stomach as I can glide past cringe moments but seriously; Protag must be braindead or something. The writing takes things so seriously even though the setup is such a cliche. I don't begrudge the people who like this, but its simply not my cup of tea.

It's at the moment the best overall game I've played here.
The art is awesome, expressions, animations, I like everything.
The story is perfect for me (yep, NTR enjoyer), all of the routes are very interesting and different, can't wait for new ones.
The sound can end up repetitive, but it's so good I don't mind at all.
It's a VN with few choices, in some games I care about choices, here tbh I don't, it's a bit random how the story develops with a couple different phrases but again, it's a VN, it's normal.
Top notch overall, this is a must for NTR enjoyers

One of the best in his category. That's what NTR actually is.

The visuals are great, the story is super well written, the characters are well developed. Everything is there for the perfect immersion.

I can't wait to try again once it's finished.

The art in this game is just amazing! Great captivating story with interesting plot points. I suggest playing the game from the MC's perspective if its your first time playing. Its really exciting with the mystery and the MC not knowing whats going on. I feel bad for the MC though since he's the victim.

Review of version 0.6.6. Very good if you like classic NTR story and kinetic novels, not so good otherwise.
