VN - Ren'Py - A Wife and Mother [v0.215f] [Lust & Passion]

(I will update the stats after every update, so you can see the progress in one page)
Duration of an update per playable day (excluding day 1 and 2):


You can find an detailed update history here.

As you can see clearly the game development got slower and slower.
From ~80-90 days per playable day to over 200.
The devs render speed increased over the time, but not much (see in spoiler), while he unnecessarily increases the amount of renders by three times (without counting animations in).
Now the dev wants to release day 19 in 3 parts to assure faster updates...
But with that the game processes slower, cause the dev will certainly add even more renders and each render will require more time.

That's a step in the wrong direction in my opinion.
If each playable day needs 200 days to create and they're 19 left, then the dev won't finish it until 2030!

The dev says it takes so much time cause of the quality of the renders. Saying the render speed will be faster, but it just has taken a merely noticeable step forward.

I have no complains about the slow development, but in the last updates there is a noticeable stretch in the content, so you are getting less and less story progress in the same amount of time.

It is something I noticed during time and I wanted to share it.
To be fair, it's a great game, has good visuals and I like the teasing.
It's one of the biggest points in this game and will be after the first non-husband sex scenes.
I would give it 4 /5, if the game was finished.
But it isn't finished and I'm rating the current state of the game.
I don't like that the look of the renders isn't consistant.
That's cause this project takes more time than it should be.
Although the newest renders looking great, it disturbs the gaming experience a bit and does not feel like a polished game.
I also don't like how a couple of non-relevant events are unnecessarily dragged out which forces you to skip it.




Update November 2022:
The game is currently at playable day 13. Now we are getting 1 event per update instead. That means this playable day is split into 11 updates.
The reason for this is the same: faster updates.
But when you begin to add animations to the game, it just contradicts with the purpose of event-based updates.

The critique is basically the same as for the 3 updates per day, only now it's gotten worse.
One year has passed since the last PD, and PD 13 is just halfway done.
Back when I first wrote this review, I thought the development wouldn't get much slower. PD 11 took around 250 days, PD 12 around 430. Now PD 13 is likely gonna take around 2 years. The initial thought that the game could get finished in 2030, just forget it. It would be a miracle that by 2030 the game doesn't get abandoned and reaches PD 18.

It's sad to see that such a promising game will not reach it's potential, just because the dev does everything he can to slow down the game process.

So we're at Day12 of I'm guessing 30 and the only remote sex scene that we've seen is the MC with her husbands toothpick...not to mention that the game is gaining considerable size.
Going through it again, I noticed more character diversity in the hobos and random guy's on the street as almost all the women in the game have the same bland and below average look with no interesting features other than they are breathing.

There's also quite a bit of filler content that doesn't lead to anything and the cliche boob/ass grabs are getting embarrassing to look at. You either get to fucking, or you don't....the MC is a mature woman that still blushes at stupid random encounters and acts like she doesn't know what a penis is.

Rename this game to "A Christian Wife" and at least people will know what to expect.

IMO still representing the most relatable female characters on F95. That's quite impressive 3 years after the 1st release! Now you can tell there's not much progression ever since then, but the truth lies in details as much as in the eye of the beholder. You know, a fine wine needs time to mature. Too slow? Well, I can't see no deadlock yet! Just mind their tags. A guide is virtually inside.

Excluding the extremely slow development there is one key issue with this game. It is a prime example of a "walkthrough game". To successfully get the scenes and paths that you want you're essentially forced to follow the walkthrough step by step. You're basically playing the guide and not the game itself. A prime example of this is going with the Ellie/Patricia lesbian route in which you have to help Ellie get a boyfriend to then later activate some lesbian scenes. How does that make any sense ? Logically this choice would prevent you from pursuing her, but for some reason it does the exact opposite. Oh and miniscule choices might derail an entire path which only further supports the idea that this is a "walkthrough game".

Art and scenes are great, but that alone does not save the game from being average, especially in terms of playability.

All my complaints about the game are about its scenarios/scenes. All the mechanical stuff like models and working properly is top notch. My main issue with this game is that you have to suspend reality way too many times for most of these scenarios to happen. Also there are just way too many sleaze balls with a lack of just normal people. If the game had some more (for the lack of a better term) wholesome scenarios and options it would've helped. Or if they just toned down the amount of just undenialble sleazos then I could enjoy this. The scene that broke me was the whole situation involving the bullying and the blackmailing of the mother. That whole scene was poorly written and just wouldn't happen in reality which would be fine if the author didn't base his game in reality. Anyways, for me this game will just be another wasted oppurtunity for a well made game with a female protagonist. There just are not that many good ones within Adult VG's.

The storyline is excellent. For example, I wonder what 10 things Sophia will be forced to do in order to protect her son. The user has direct control over her level of corruption which informs how far she is willing to go. The characters are nuanced. The CG is excellent along with the GUI's intelligent design. Provided its level of excellence is maintained and does not devolve into sex-for-the-sake-of-sex trash, it has the potential to become one of the most successful, additive, and respected games of its ilk.

I think it's excellent. It really is. Other games they jump to the sex part way to early.But this game provides realistic corruption story. When i say corruption i dont mean like the other games does.This one is realistic and my opinion is its one of the best games this f95platorm has.

Outstanding attention to detail with the amount of clothing, scenery objects, locations, vehicles, etc.

Character design is especially nice, without overly unrealistic design, but still attractive proportions to characters.

Amazing amount of renders for this stage of the game, rivaling entire alpha or beta releases with single updates.

There are multiple branching options for player, which breaks things up a bit, which is usually difficult to implement, given the time it adds to development.

As I'm currently developing my own visual novel, AWAM serves as great inspiration.

It's not finished yet, but this is my favorite game already. The storylines are really ambitious, and the future content is going to be really exciting. There are so many options and it becomes clear pretty fast that you need to make certain decisions. You may play through several times before you get all the content.

I like this game ! The characters are nice and the corruption come slowly, the main characters is not going to fuck everywhere at the second episode !
Some may find this too long but this xlow corruption is so good, hope to see more in a few moment
Maybe the updates take a little bit too long sometimes but if we want something good we need to wait
havfe fun

Great world-building and character development! The 3D models look well-designed, and not like weird uncanny valley sex dolls. I personally love all the small situations that will eventually lead to even more intimate scenarios. Slow burns are great as long as there's excellent payoff at the end and small payoffs in between. Though sometimes the dialogue can be unnecessarily longwinded.

Too much of a build_up for the story . Boring and long dialogues , unbalanced content creation meaning that we can find one route with a least amount of content and almost ( zero content ) in other routes . Too many renders but just a little number of animations in the whole game with different routes . I recommand to try it but don't expect much content and giving that this game has 3 years of developpement I suggest to not expect much either in the near future .

One of the best VN games I ever played. Also this game is the reason why I fell in love adult novel story telling. Renders are very detailed and seems to be getting better by each new update. Only downside I see with this game is slow updates.

Great game...I hope it won't be abandoned by patreon supporters because the dev is a russian guy who wants to milk as much as possible.Well if the previous reviews that i have been read is not true i will edit my post but unfortunatelly all of them are true.Without sex in 3 years not any living creature can live. )

Is this some sort of elaborate joke I'm not in on? I was bored out of my mind reading line after line of waffling bollocks that boils down to attraction and arousal exist oh my god NOOOOOO!! She's a grown ass adult but you'd never know it, there are 90 year old virgin nuns more sexual and sensible about it than Sofia. She doesn't come across remotely like a real person would. There is no real story. She's unbelievably frigid at the start and still is now it's barely moved in years. There's slow burn but this is glacial. There is barely any porn she has bad sex with her husband twice.

The game fails as a game. It fails as a story. It fails as porn. It fails as erotica. There is just nothing here apart from where you imagine it'll head towards. It's just not good.

I'm amazed she has children considering how scared she is of her own vagina. Which should not be what you think of the MC.

Easily top of my list.

• MILF corruption 10/10
• Great renders
• Excellent story and scenes
• Nice pacing and dialogs. The dev seem to understand that corruption takes time.
• Great characters

The only downsides that I can think of:

• It's usually only filthy or good wife, its kinda dumb to change your decisions a bit if you go Filthy bc then you won't have enough points.
• You may feel that there is a lot of filling in the game. Scenes that aren't interesting and display routines or whatever non-lewd actions. I don't mind this one bc I think it's at least a bit more real.
• Unskippable transitions and the stupid alarm clock.

I enjoyed the game but do not expect to get content for a quick fap. This is a slow burn with limited pay off at this point. The Story is well done and thought out, a lot of dialog to get through but it helps with character development. The path chosen dictates if any sexual situation will occur.

Wow.... One of the absolute favorite games I've played so far. (Yes, I know I mostly post good reviews but that's because I only bother writing reviews for games I like and just skip the rest). Anyways, the art is absolutely fantastic. Dialog is all sensical, interesting, creates emotions and makes you feel the different relationship types between characters - and at some points is so incredibly sweet and erotic at the same time that it just takes your breath away (eg. the pool icecube-scene, or the first shower kiss). You really love and want to cheer on all the characters. Gameplay wise there are very few choices. There are a lot of places where you click 'something' but honestly... you are playing an eros NTR game there's always one choice you obviously pick and one you obviously always skip. But still... I went back for those few things that seemed like actual diverging choices (where they lock out some plot to see another) and then speed-Tabbed through (thank you RenPy I love you for that) and it blew my mind how much dialog I was speeding through... that (unlike most RenPy games) just had not Felt like I was reading through. That was engaging and well-rendered enough that I had not noticed the.. hundreds? of screens I'd clicked through. And after binging this game to the 'to be continued', and all that content, I was left wishing for more. Sooooo obviously supporting it now

Message for developer. Please send this or show this to him.
This game is amazing and one of the best game ive ever played
I don't have any problem with update time because in every update it's graphics and story are better.
But only problem is too much girl with girl scenes especially in last update v0. 100
If because of story you want to put girl with girl erotic scene then add but not too much
I don't want the developer of this game to fast forward the game... Because it is going with correct pace.
Add scene with character that were introduced earlier like Neil and janitor Clark not like s*x scenes but erotic scenes situations.
At last just want to say this game is Outstanding.
