    It's quite solid if you're into QOS/Interracial/Cuckold content. I highly recommend if that's your thing.

    Could've been more polished with the UI design and what not. It feel like a rush job than anything.

    Extremely linear. the writing and dialogues are pretty much what you would expect from a porn game. but still, I'd say that they're no personalities whatsoever in the dialogues. quite boring. hope the devs add skip button for texts that you haven't read.

    This game is wonderful
    It's the first time I've seen a real porn this great
    Somehow it feels completely real, not the feeling of other real porn games
    The story is wonderful
    Great characters
    MC is wonderful
    Excellent characterization
    It is slow-born, which makes it highly logical
    It has many paths and this is wonderful
    Everything you look at and think about is wonderful

    The best game in the history of the entire multiverse

    All my respect to this game.
    Brand new fresh prospective to the standard adult game.

    I like that the story is driven by the DEV with limited amount of choices.. I fear that giving full freedom will lose a lot of the experiences and erotic tension.

    Unfortunately is a "real-porn" and I do not like it normally.. but I can excuse because the originality of the game mechanics.

    UPDATE version 3.0
    Unfortunately, I must review my review.
    The game is becoming so full of branches, new characters new side stories that it is impossible to really understand what is happening or relate to some of the new characters.

    Too much stuff, too confusion, too much choices that lead to nowhere.

    Quality over quantity should be the Northern Star.

    In my opinion this game lost its magic, becoming a tedious click fest that do not rise the heart beat.

    UPDATE V5:
    I cannot recognise this game anymore.. a mixed salad of everything and nothing. Million of branches that overlap and do not add anything.
    The main story/plot.. inexistent, faded...
    Just a massive mess

    a bit disappointing

    I was expecting more free interaction on the phone, instead it was a very linear VN (at lease as of v0.15). There were few choices and there were less about making clear intent choices than minor in the moment reactions. If this is what leads to NTR or not, I'll be very disappointed. What is the point of an app that aids in control if you can't make conscious choices about people? And lets be clear, just because I want MC to be interested in watching other people have sex, does not mean MC would want his wife to participate.

    I'd like for the in person interaction not to maintain the phone viewing perspective. I know that it's there because the app is the key to the story line, but it makes it gimmicky to always be in that perspective.

    Good start, phone thing isnt bad. It uses porn star images for characters. Will be good once they get to NTR probably, but still in early stages, you might want to hold off playing until more updates.

    A unique concept, done fairly well, but currently lacking in content. I want to encourage the developers to stick with this project - it's a really novel spin on the real-porn style, and the phone concept is frankly inspired. If there are other games of this idea that I simply don't know, I implore you to DM them to me.

    But, currently - this is an introduction to a good game, not a good game in itself. I give it four stars to hopefully put it on more people's radar, but if I were you, I would bookmark this and come back in a year.

    The scope feels attainable, so I hope they don't try to go too "horizontal" with content before polishing what exists now. Right now the game is very linear.

    In full: a better concept than a game, but still a pretty good game. Creator gets my full support & endorsement on this project. Right now, too slim to endorse wholeheartedly.

    v0.1.5
    Didn't think the game would be this good. I like the game play, text dialogue style keeps it simple and realistic. Pretty hot so far, nice and slow with the corruption, love the dynamic between MC and wife, side characters are interesting too. Intrigued to see where it all goes, will son get some action with the mum or turn full sissy? :LOL: Still don't get American's obsession /fetish with black cocks, I'm just in to see the wife gets pounded by white/black/Asian or whatever, just write an interesting story.
    Hope this gets updated frequently with the simplified dialogue, sick of waiting for years for a game to finish these days.

    Update v0.2.5
    The game kind of lost its focus with the sandbox style game play, just clicking to pass time for the next event takes you rightttt out of the story...making it feels literally like...a game.
    Starting over every update gets pretty tiring as well.
    Going to drop this from a 5 to 4 stars. Probably won't revisit for another 6 months or so. Hopefully things are better then.

    Update 0.4.5

    Things hasn't changed, it got worst as time progresses, with a lot of unnecessary clicking, checking Hypno messages, repeated dates, and time wasting. Gotta do something about the saved games, I ain't going to do another 5 hours of clicking to see new contents.
    I want to love this game, but it's a bloody chore at this point. Dropping another star

    At first glance, I thought this was going to be similar to a game concept I had. Disappointed someone beat me to the punch, I was still looking forward to playing it. For better or worse, I was wrong.

    The game is extremely linear. Very low on any significant choices or personal agency. Just a series of one-to-the-next clicks of text-text-text that I just found tiring. "Oh great. Another text I had no hand in initiating and no choice but to click through until it's over".
    Waiting for the actual interaction portion to start. A point where the user is set free to explore and make their own choices. But it just drags on and on without that. Most of these games can't be built with much choice. But you need to at least capitalize on the illusion of choice in game design to hook the player somewhat. That wasn't well considered here.

    The writing also features a lot of implausible actions and thin world-building that take out any potential immersion. You don't feel in any way grounded to a real character interacting with others when the endless rounds of text go from 0 to Pornstar in ten seconds flat. Not to mention run-of-the-mill instagram/porn faces with no real character in them.

    Some may like it for the content, but I found this incredibly boring and frustrating for lack of choices or believable, well written & designed characters, world-building, dialogue and game-play, sorry to say. Might as well just watch pornhub and avoid the ugly Kardishian-damaged plastic faces the dev chose for the models in this game. Ironically more interactive than this in at least they have a search bar.

    Edit: The game now goes sandbox lite (very light) after a certain amount of time has passed, with several limited selections you can make on your phone and NPC phones you hack into, but half of that is waiting for days to pass to get/see a text. So you'll find the majority of this game at that point is repeatedly pressing the time-forward button to get a repeating text or few-and-far between story update on a route. Still far from well-designed or fun, unfortunately.

    Edit 2: Hot garbage as of the recent update. I decided to check back in out of boredom, which this didn't alleviate. Majority of the game is still spamming the time passage button for character phone developments - which are now a total mess, with convoluted story paths directly contradicting each other each text. Not that they had any flavor to begin with. Players with dirt-low standards who like the concept must be what's pulling this through to almost 4 stars. Because there is no pulp here. Just paper-thin strings of implausible dialogue, entirely disconnected from each other.

    Based on the skill-level I'm seeing on writing, pacing and game design, it's safe to say this will only devolve and isn't worth another look months or years down the line.

    My smallest complaint - which wouldn't make any difference in the playability of this mess if fixed , don't get me wrong - is that the wife is also the least attractive character in an unintriguing list of amateur and pro pornshoot models. Even the already-made porn content they're poaching isn't hot. When the majority of previous IRL girlfriends/spouse are hotter than the main-focus love-interest in this sort of game, you know you're doing it wrong. (Tbh, I edited the some of the photos to a much hotter ex just to try to get one good jack off of this. lol. But there is just way to much media to do it throughout, so mid-tier game wife still kept popping up). Dev couldn't even bother to hunt out and select hotter pre-made content on this for some reason.

    The best way to describe this game: An agonizing chore you don't want to complete. "Am I gonna get paid for this?" *gets rewarded with string of bad writing and shitty porno photo* in a text message.

    This is a great game. It has tons of great content; really interesting story options; very good pictures and videos; and a really amazing story. I like the nod to the WifeApp story and game as well. Keep up the good work dev!

    Well made. Good writing.

    pro:
    - the interface.
    - the real porn sticking with the same woman when scene progresses.
    - the updates are pretty long as well.

    con:
    - i' m a bit worried it eventually become more of a sandboxy game. but right now it's linear
    - the spyware on the phone being able to change the mental state of your wife seems to be a bit of a stretch :p I'd just as well believe her to become more slutty when she gains more popularity in her fuckstagram
    - for anyone anti-NTR it will probably cause a seizure.

    review of v0.15

    i love this game, super hot and really good writing, cant wait for the next update.

    give it a look if youre into the tags, its very unique and the next update promises a huge upgrade if i were you id get in on the ground floor, im tempted to sub on patreon for this one.

    one tiny and unimportant criticism is that most of the women are brunettes and i have a hard time distinguishing between them.

    I really like it, probably one of them best current real porn games, the pics and gifs are well chosen but that aside , the corruption, cheating genre of real porn has one problem, most author don't make things optional making the mc be forced to be sissified or feminised, I like when the Mc is the one doing it to others which is what happens in this game and the story hook isnt bad for a game of this type and is interesting, can't wait to see how this develops, current update the game gets you into it as the next few updates will really flesh out the corruption and changing other characters mechanics so eageraly waiting for next update.

    TLDR: TY author good game

    Well at last a game where the writing is "readable" and really thrilling, the storyline intruiging and the concept with the phone refreshing!

    I really really love to play 0.15 and i want to save Jenny and Christie... or dont iI...?

    keep this up @ Dev youre programming a real pearl here!!

    This game has a TON of potential and I am giving it 5 stars based on that alone. In this early version, there isn't really much to do and that makes a lot of sense as this version seems less like a final product and more of a proof of concept. Given that the developer is actively looking for feedback about whether a story like this has appeal to a wide enough audience, I think this whole experiment will come down to whether there is enough interest in it or not. As such, I would say that if you are looking for a VN game format that is a bit different from the motion-comic-book style that most VNs are these days and you don't mind the particular hang ups and fetishes of the content, then let your voice and support be heard. Similarly if you are into the fetishes and content, but less in the format, let that be known as well. I like the whole package, so I am eager to see what comes next - I just hope the issue where hitting the space bar at certain points sends you back to the main menu gets fixed. Really promising start!

    its exactly what it looks like

    fairly good writing

    lots of professional real porn

    100% BBC Cuckold netorase

    Theres really nothing else to say as the game is very short
    but sure I can waffle on about it being presented very nicely as well

    Although this is only v.01, I am rating it based on its potential, not where it is now in early development.

    As other reviewers have said, the phone interface is somewhat unique and makes for compelling hook. One reason why that is so is because it is realistic. Most games here are not very realistic (fine), but it is great to see one that is built on a realistic concept (even if the interactions are more fantasy).

    Some suggestions: First, introduce a few more characters, some of which don't necessarily end up going anywhere (that would really up the realism). Have their interactions with the MC be more realistic, short, meaningful, not grindy. Second, design the files so that players can mod easily with their own preferred images of their own friends/wives/etc. Third, this phone-style seems best to focus on cheating, so play that up enough with several main options for the MC and MC wife. Make it so the wife can cheat some or alot, in different scenarios, for different reasons (without a huge decision tree).

    I look forward to seeing v.02.

    This game is fantastic, great interface and concept. Can't wait for more content and seems like the dev will be putting out updates fairly often. Definitely one on the top of my watch list. Hope it doesn't go down the trans route or sissification route like many of these games do.

    This is a really strong start! I saw another review that suggested that Ren'Py isn't the best engine for this story, and I think I agree, since it's got such a unique layout. I encountered a bug, too, where if I was on the home screen of the phone, hitting the spacebar or clicking on the margins of the screen it would take me back to the home screen of the game and I'd lose progress.

    Still, this seems like a really hot start, and I look forward to more, whether it turns out to be a linear story, or one with different paths.

    Really well done so far! And a very unique idea to have it all run through the interface of smartphones. (y)

    Personally I would really enjoy if the game embraced the BBC, QoS, BNWO themes EVEN MORE, but that's just selfishly cuz they're exciting kinks for me.

    Keep sissifying the white cucks!

    Excellent start for a v0.1 little short, but it was expected but the little we got was perfect,
    (a little too linear)
    a little more freedom of choice and different fetish, and it actually could be perfect
    but with the amount of picture and video me and other as given on the discord already I have high hope for the future :)
