Updated review: I've dropped this from a 3.5 review to a 2 star review.
Interracial is a driving aspect of this game, so if you're not into interracial you may want to avoid this title. There are a lot of good quality clips and images from Blacked. But, it could be argued that black men's portrayal is a bit racist. Too many are presented as thug tropes, who happen to be successful, though that's never really explained.
----------------------------------
My biggest problem with the game is two-fold:
1) There is an annoying amount of grind even in the revamped version.
2) Narrative problems
You have no control over the characters and what they do. In the original game you made choices early that affected the game. But, aside from initial choices in the revamped version, you actually have little control over who is corrupted and how. Sadly, that was a prime selling point for me in earlier development of the game.
You cannot save any of the women, not even by having them in the control app and choosing not to corrupt them. The Dev has made this choice for you. In the revamped version everyone in your app is corrupted whether you want them to or not, and even ones you say you don't want to corrupt, I now suspuct based on email exchanges with Jenna, will eventually get corrupted despite your wishes.
So, basically play this game if you want to corrupt everyone and be berated for doing so by Jenna, the Wifeapp avatar itself and others. And if you didn't add them to the app, they will get corrupted if they are mentioned at all, and that's your fault to . . . or so Jenna and others will tell you.
3) The email exchanges are now tedious and annoying. Why can't I just tell one of the husband's they're being cheated on and end that path? Why am I forced to carry water for others. If the character really doesn't care, why am I forced to protect the cheaters.
Now, I was just fine with the NTR and cheating aspect of this game. But, I wanted to control who cheated and how. But, I'm not given that power. The Dev controls that.
So, play this game if you just want to be along for the ride, but know this is mainly a kinetic novel and that all of the paths are pre-determined within a narrow range of options (Dominant, Cuck, Male to Female, Sissy MC). Once you're on a path, you have no control over what happens, and you still have to deal with annoying text chains that make no sense.
I've downloaded, played, and uninstalled this game a dozen times since it started development. This last time was my last. I suddenly realized how boring this title has become--at least for me.
Details:
One immersion breaking flaw was the central role of Jenna. She is the architect of your character's downfall, appears to be responsible for many of the behind the scenes machinations with family, and yet, despite the MCs on-again off-again annoyance with her, she has access to you and your entire family for the most part, mostly w/your consent. Yes, the MC whines about things she says, but you can never block her.
Everything you know comes through the phone so some of the NTR aspects come from her. But, this could be handled with effective use of the camera phone or other people sending you images and videos. But, nearly all is from Jenna or the wifeapp persona. Stupidly you could block her and still get that content from the wife spy app since she constantly contacts people you follow and you get regular contact from the wifespy admin??
So, I can't give this better than a 2-star rating. The Dev has chosen a lot of good images, and quality porn, and it will please NTR lovers, if they are on-board for the direction of the story/path. You can still fast forward through the inane story. The email chains are annoying and add to the grind.
Ultimately, the game is undermined by a messy, inconsistent, and incoherent story, and is annoyingly repetitive too often. The grind for this title is epic. There are a lot of bugs that thwart any attempt to save your family from their inevitable downfall, if you want to. So, despite the claims, current bugs in the game mean little of the corruption is actually avoidable and you're forced to consume character content you may not care about. There were many charaters I simply wished would go away: Christian and George for instance--vapid and annoying. I still don't understand why I was forced to convince George to stay with his vapid wife. She obviously hates him, so why?
You will inevitably have scenes that make no sense. If NTR is your fetish, you'll avoid many of these flaws, but you still won't be able to avoid the grind, inane text chains, and narrative inconsistencies.
