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

Way too much filler, no good scenes , too ez to miss plot line bc of one bad choice , 6 years to get this far .... . Most likely a Patreon milking scheme .The good writing and cool mc cant save this game witch is a shame . There are way too many better incest games out there for a better rating .

Version reviewed: 0.180

This game deserves more than the 3.5 stars it currently has on the site. It's closer to a 4.5, but I will round it up to 5 given the quality improvements recently.

This game is simply incredibly divisive, it's the slowest burn of all slow burns. To be honest, if you followed this game from Day 1 (5 and a half years ago) I can understand the low ratings. The updates are fairly short, the Dev draws out things like nipple peeks for several updates. But still, there are hours upon hours of content currently. I played the game for the first time at its current state so that's how I am judging it.

The reality is that when this game is fully completed it will be one of the best VNs on the site. The quality of the visuals has improved a LOT recently, particularly with Part 2. The Dev has also shown a willingness to put more lewd and sexual content in the game in the past year or so.

The story is decent, at its core its about a woman becoming more of an exhibitionist. The 'situations' that these events occur in are the highlight for sure. The Dev has been accused of 'milking' over the years but as someone who is a big fan of teasing, nipple peeks, and "earning" the lewd stuff it's right up my alley. You just have to know what you're getting into with this game.

It's a great game but it's taking too long.
It's been too many years without sex and it's starting to get desperate.
The latest version 1.80 was disappointing and the development time was too long for what it offered. It could be done in 1 week.
Hopefully it will improve and start to deliver what users are asking for.

First, the game is mostly pictures and does not have any lesbianism because the most that happens in the lesbian side is kisses only and without good animation compared to the size it is not worth 6 GB for the first part

On one hand the visuals and writing are superb and I greatly enjoy it. On the other hand, depending on how fast you read, you can go 15 hours only being cock-teased. The entire first part of the game is one giant blue ball simulator. I fully enjoy slow burn games, but at this point it is getting ridiculous.

Greatest nothing burger ever.Author adds really nothing yet adding something to develop game not even joking.

When you see title you think you know something like wife gonna do some good and bad things but for a years really nothing happened no sex scenes or something like that just normal teasing things never going to full way.

Funny thing is theres fan game that better than this one and i am not even joking actually something happens in fan game and its good quality one.

So game not that bad but updates means nothing and probably we not gonna get sex scenes like anohter 2 years more or less no idea.

İ give 4 star for potential and graphics nothing more story is interesting but until this completed thats no good for me because story=teasing(not joking with teasing thing) nothing more.

Premise of the game is appealing. MC is hot and well written. Animations and renders are great. BUT too much blue balling and not enough of the good parts that we/the players want.

Its time to advance the story and reduce the fluff every day content that honestly no one cares about. This game has a ton of potential but developer keeps stalling....

I would say this is a 5 star game for its female protagonist genre, but overall i cant give it a 5 star.

5 - years in development
v 1.80
I wanted to write a long text about how boring and disappointing the game is... but I'll be brief... the game is boring crap (even if you consider it erotic rather than porn), I do not recommend familiarizing yourself with it.

A very realistic and well-made story, but it gets lost in unimportant side stories and only contains a few nice scenes so far. But after many years of very slow development, it only contains one real (and very boring) sex scene.

The models look great. If you are new as of 2/5/23 then theres a lot of story content here....its updated once every 3 months for a crap ton of nothing.......sex wise is like a bad lesbian softcore incest porn. Yeah theres lots of girl on girl, the MC flirting with a whole bunch of men and penetration is non existent. Really if you like the character models there is a fan made game thats little a fraction of the size with the same models and way more actual sex. Just go play those.

Nothing extraordinary an at this pace it ain't never getting complete it's not worth the time an money the dev should should quit being a developer an start farming an rearing cows the game is almost in development for 5 years i beleive no doubt the quality of renders are great but it lacks storyline an development being a adult game the pace is too slow only focused on quality the dev should reduce quality of renders an pace up it's storyline an focus on characters more an continue with them instead of bringing in new characters which is totally not required.

Before I start with my review, keep in mind this game is approaching it's 6th year of development. In that time, the developer has somehow managed to add one or two actual scenes that are fap worthy.
PROS:

• Extensive dialogue and build up
  • Realistic-ish scenarios and story
• Renders
  • Renders aren't super lazy and uncanny
  • Especially well done in part 2
• Internal monologues
  • Probably the most important part of any female protagonist h game created in the male gaze is the internal dialogue, which the game does very well.
• Character design
  • Protagonist rendered very well and most, I believe, would find her very attractive.
• Part 2
  • I was very disappointed, leading up to the end of part one, however, part 2 gives me a little hope that the developer/s are going to be making changes to how the game is approached.
  • The renders a lot better and the story seems to be speeding up.

CONS

• WAY too much dialogue
  • I don't mind a descriptive story, but much of the dialogue is boring, not funny, or arousing most of the time. The author seems to talk about and describe nothing for an impressive amount of time. It got to the point where I (I rarely do this) skipped most of the dialogue until I reached a scene.
  • Honestly, you could cut out like 2/3 of the dialogue and still have a very clear understanding of the plot and the characters.
  • To me, it seems like a tactic to fluff up the game and excuse the lack of content, which I'll discuss later.
• Limited choices
  • What I find annoying is when the margin of error for H games is so slim to see all scenes. There were several times where I had to cheat in order to see a scene because I didn't choose the right dialogue. Most of the time in games, this is fine, but with a game with such a limited amount of scenes, it's problematic.
• Lack of scenes
  • Like I said before, It's bizarre how long this game has been in development and there's so few scenes. I get it, having a build up is important, but at this point in time, that's all there is.
  • Usually I wouldn't complain about this because the game is still in development, but like I said, the game is coming up on it's 6th year of development.

All in all, it's disappointing. Most of the length of the game seems like filler dialogue and the scenes feel like they lead to nothing. I understand the developer may have had issues monetizing the game and adding the scenes the people may have wanted due to patreon not allowing stuff about incest, however, I'm not sure why they could do what every other developer does, and create a separate incest patch.

I'm not a developer, I don't make games or know how to code, but god knows why this game has been in development for so long and is still so unfinished. Personally, I would believe it if it were a cash grab the whole time, which would explain the drip-fed content.

I hope that part 2 is the step forward in the right direction, for the sake of the game and anyone that has given money toward this project.

Ok so, I don't know why it took me so long to leave a review of this game because it has been my favorite for quite a while, The renders are amazing, and Sophia is by far the hottest female character I've seen in a VN yet, she's perfect, and I really like the story of the game as well, I would definitely recommend it, my favorite path of the game is with her own son Dylan there's something about it being forbidden and taboo that's just so hot about it.

It's slow really slow. Normally this wouldn't be an issue but I mean both the story and the updates themselves.

Pros:
-Good renders

Cons:
-starts as what looks like an incest game but it caved to patreon rules instead of moving to a new site so thats out the window so the incest content comes to a shocking halt
-as above all content is now looking like a HEAVY focus on cuckolding/swaping
-Like a sadly large amount of games the dev listened to the tiny but extremely vocal Blacked group. Your character literally thinks "Wow all black guys must be hung." in one of the scenes and its honestly horrid writing.
-The writing itself isn't bad to start but takes a nose dive around the time the stuff above is mentioned in every aspect not just that one.
-As opening says the updates are very slow I wouldn't be shocked if he is milking patreon.

TLDR: Slow updates a shift from incest to other content. A game that was good to start but the Dev caved and listened to the loud people.

I am reading at some of this 1 star reviews and i am thinking have any of them even played any other games on this forum. It is easily one of the top 10 games on the site. Writing, renders, unbelievably sexy MC, sexy scenes are made with so much thought and are so interesting, build up is top notch.

I played the game back when it was first released and i liked it, i thought that it was fine but nothing special.
Last week i decided to download it again and see what is new. Any boy was i hooked, yesterday i played for 6 hours straight.
The renders are improved when compared to the last time i played it and Sophia is sexier than ever.

I am a big fan of a game Jessica o´Neill hard news and i know that on that thread people talk often about AWAM and similarities between this 2 games. I was always annoyed when that discussion started.
But man it is so true.
Both games have one of the best female MC´s ever with very good renders and writing.
ALso one of the things i always admired Stoper (developer of JOHN), was how good he is at writing this sexy scenes and how good the build up is and writing.
What i mean is that so many games are like this for example: the sexy scenes have no build up. 2 character meet, start touching etc, and the next scene you see they are already both naked and fucking.

JOHN and AWAM are completely different. Both developers like to set up the mood first, and the scenes last long while the mood is building and getting more and more exciting.
I just love it.
For example yesterday i played AWAM and was on day 19 i think where Sophia and Sam were in the jacuzzi after his rock concert. That scene one a prime example of what i am talking about. So sexy without any of them even taking their clothes of.
I am in love with this game now, and i even think it surpassed JOHN in that regard.
Also the sexy scenes are so imaginative and varied. From posing those kids as a model for drawing to jail scene, to all the things she had to do for Aiden in the classroom.
Absolute gem of a game and it has everything i like in these type of games.
And then i look at 3.5 stars rating and think about all the kids that gave 1 star rating, probably kids who do not know to appreciate the quality of the game because all they want to see is dick entering a pussy.
Long comment, but the game deserved it.

This one is not good from the very beginning.

The writing is awful and full of cliche stereotypes that make me wonder what decade the Devs live in. The plot is ridiculous and lazy. An example is the school becoming private property of the janitor at night or said wife and mom freaking out because a box of lingerie in front of the movers yet hardly bats an eye when daughter ODs the son on Viagra. That much would have had his blood pressure in the toilet.

There are no likeable characters, Daughter is a narcissist, son a sociopath, mom is so uptight she freaks out about changing in front of her sister or that son might see her in a bikini.

The son and neighbor are supposed to be getting ready for college yet neither look like they have gone through puberty. Mom tries to help son relieve a boner by showing him a hint of pubic hair!? Really!? I guess he hasn't discovered internet porn yet either.

There really are no redeeming qualities at all. I could go on.

While your expectation in the game is high deception content, that is, when you are thinking about having sex with others, the unnecessary prolongation of this job is so oriental that the producer of the game is making people wait unnecessarily just for money. I end the game that I met with very good expectations with these sentences please don't play.

AWAM is better than its rating if you play it the right way. And the right way (I rarely say this) is using the cheat system that is already a part of the game.

Overall, this is more of a teasing VN than actual pornography and its a very very slow burn that develops a convincing story over longer periods of time. You wouldn't think after an hour that AWAM has anything to offer in terms of plot, but the storytelling does improve over time.

The main problem of AWAM (without cheats) is that you get locked into paths quite early and the game likes to remind you of all the things you cannot have because you haven't acquired enough filthy points, or Patricia points or whatever. This COULD be a gamebreaker. But it is not.

Simply use the cheat system to add points whenever you need them and style the narrative according to your own taste. By adding points you can open events that would otherwise require to replay large parts of this very long game.

Ps. Despite its shortcomings in game design I awarded the 5th star because the lesbian path in AWAM is one of the best sensual lesbian paths in any AVN. So if you are looking for a great lesbian experience with a focus on teasing instead of porn, this is for you.

A bit slow burn, but pretty enjoyable game, waiting for the updates as always.

Aaaaand in the meantime hopeing that there will be a lot of lesbian content in it.
The story is pretty good too a lot of ways to go with it.
And you can be just a good wife aswell

The only real and realistic (as far as possible) visual novel with a lot of taboos, build up tensions, unbelievably good renders and a lot more.
The only flaw is very, very slow development progress, and that is a big problem and main reason why supportors of the game get in conflict with the creator and why they "spit" on the game even if its not needed.
