VN - Ren'Py - Completed - Acting Lessons [v1.0.2] [DrPinkCake]

This game ACTUALLY made me cry, it was really good, I'm not gonna spoil anything, but this is one of those adult games you HAVE to play, if you enjoy any adult VNs you owe yourself to AT LEAST try this one out

First of all forgive me for my poor English. In my opinion, in general, the game is very good with its schedule, narration, structure. The player can select girls with different images who are all very beautiful and lovely, they have different characters and this makes the game very interesting. So I give this game 5 stars.

This is "The Bad Times at the El Royale" of porn games. A perfect beginning and middle, and a trashcan fire for an end.

Even if this game ended properly it would only be middle of the road. This abomination of a game would be amazing as a visual novel. Nothing you do changes anything. You a railroaded to one ending, the same ending every time. The only thing that changes are the scenes and names, and the "optional" scenes are very obviously lacking in care and quality compared to the scenes the game forces down your throat. Making me feel like the porn aspects of the game actually detracted from the experience. I was continuously finding myself less and less aroused and more and more disappointed. Megan was 3rd to last on my list of preferred woman and the game forces you to pursue a relationship with her. You can't ever say no. And the game leads you towards a harem ending and rips it away from you while simultaneously destroying the story. Its disgusting, like M night Shyamalan disgusting. The defining traits you have suck, they are kind of balanced and really pointless, and while they provide decent enough flavor text none of those moments are any more memorable then the others and none of them alter the story... at all. Even though I hated the game, some elements were exciting enough that I wouldn't mind trying more games from this developer, but do not waste your time on this game.

A masterpiece. The story is very engaging and the characters are very charismatic. The theme of the game is very cool, the story gradually develops. The game has its "difficult" moment, but it is still extremely good. It even makes you reflect on real life.

So, to begin, I'm french, so sorry for my english if it's not correct, but I HAVE to say something about that game.

I play so many games here, and I NEVER play a game so incredible before...
It's certainly not the best game to fap or to enjoy sex scene, but for me it's the best game with the best background ever !
There is so much differents feelings.. Once you're happy and you laugh becasue of Liam, and some scene later you cry because of his situation or the past of the girls..
Furthermore, there is a moral in this game. You have to think about every decision that can hurts everybody..
I don't now if I can really appreciate the end (well if it's the end where you have to save one of the girl...) but when I play this game I just want to cry more that to fap... I'm very emotional and the 4th and 5th chapter make me feel so sad and so bad...

Finally, I recommand this game to everyone who love games with great caracters backgrounds and to everyone who love stories.
For me it's a masterpiece ! 5/5, 10/10, 100/100 and over... !

And if someone or DrPinkCake can make an ending who everybody will be happy, a happy ending to say, it will be the perfect game ever !

Thanks all ! And long life to F95Zone for all these amazing games <3

Such an excellent game and story! I thoroughly enjoyed the main characters and and story. I wished there was a ending to have both the main girls but I also liked how it ended as well. Thank you for such a great game!

By far one of the most interesting adult game with a real powerful twist close to the ending ,it literally made me feel really sad when i had to choose between the two girls but hey that's what makes it so special.Each of characters in this game have different background like in real life tragedy's and that its what makes it awesome because it makes you care about them you feel bad and want to help them .Overall i would definitely recommend this game just for the amazing story and character developing sex scene are not perfect i would say its more about romance in this game.

This game surprised me. I didn't know much about it when I started it up, but it certainly was not what I thought it was. I'll have to do another playthrough because the choice near the end (I actually did not get to make that choice because of the route I took) took me by surprise and I really want to do it the other way.

One of the best and most emotional games I have ever played! It took me a week to get over it. Beautiful women, interesting characters, wonderful music, realistic working hot sex scenes, romance and amazing story!
This is a game you'll never forget!

Just another singing the praises of this. You get sucked in thinking it's the same as anything else here.

The writing is so nicely done. You see reviews mentioning it makes you think for games but this one nails it.

I never review games, but I feel like this one deserves it, as it's easily been one of my favorite games thus far. Further, it probably is my absolute favorite, ignoring the nostalgia I feel for the first few games I played. The story is engaging. Nothing ever feels forced. It's never too slow or too fast. The renders and animations are decent. There is always something to be done. Choices/Outcomes are not too obvious. Great replay value. Also, a strong male support character is something critically lacking in many of these games and it was executed beautifully here. Excellent game all around.

Charming a romantic thriller with realistic drama. "Not everything is perfect but if you make it best out of it, you'll make it perfect in your own way and you will cherish it forever" I think this is the message of this game, you make your own fate.

One of the best games on this site, not the best game to fap or have the best sex scenes to enjoy but have a really good story with really well written characters.
Even if you cut out the h-scenes it still would be fun to play.
Only downside is how in the beginning of the game it keeps pushing the same girl to your face, i can understand it because of the plot and how it should go but almost made me drop the game, except that this game overall a 9.5/10

This is easily my favorite game ever! I loved the story, the elements may not all be original, but the way they are put together is amazing! It is an older game and some of the early renders are not the best, but the characters more than make up for it. I usually play these games with the sound Off, but the music here is quite good and I would recommend playing with the sound On.

Simply one of the GOAT games!!! The romanceable models/characters are amazingly gorgeous!!! It's a game changer in this particular genre!!! The two main female characters are fantastic in their own way.. so are the other side characters in the game!!! The story's well written & the plot twist near the end & the soundtracks are top-notch!!! Just one tiny little wish was... if we had the option to get a more happy ending, evade the problem in the first place (damn you GOT) but hey, maybe it was better that way, i guess... Anyway, a true MASTERPIECE!!!

10 ending scene...

That was a middle class game but man why game start with megan she look like dog. I know story start with her but i think that girl is so cringe.

Redhead girl i can't even say anyting about her if i say something bad maybe she come and start a fire in my hause.

'' I have to choose one... What a stupid chose(sorry a girl,sorry b girl) and fireman doing what in same time what a dogshit story.

Someones say thats good game for story maybe for traged.

My vote thats a 10/3 game
(2 point for liam)

A story of friendship (Liam is awesome) and love.
A story about how life can hit hard sometimes. Really hard.
A beautiful and bittersweet story.
It feels good as much as it hurts to have completed this amazing game.

I originally posted this to the wrong thread.

Late to the party...I didn't realize this game had been out so long...not sure how I missed it.

All I can say is for an adult game, the last chapter was pretty effing dark. I appreciated it and I'll have to play it through and go after someone else next time through.

Some additional thoughts. You have a few choices early on that determine your character's qualities. For example, if you choose to work out you're athletic (which means you'll win in volleyball and kick Peter's ass). If you choose going to meet people you're charismatic and women will be more interested in you. If you choose reading books, it means you're well-read (though I'm not sure of what that does in the game).

There are 9 (yes 9) different endings.

Megan - She's very sweet but rather boring character. I'd describe her as milquetoast. Since the game is centered on her I played through to try and make her the ending on my first run through. She's probably too sweet if I'm being honest. There's no real character growth with her.

Melissa - She was more interesting character, conflicted, and had some real issues, so her character growth has some impact. While the last chapter is still dark, it's a better ending overall.

Rena - I haven't played through trying to get Rena yet. Rena is an interesting character. I'll update this when I play through for the Rena ending.

Overall, one of the better games I've played. DrPinkCake's writing is pretty good. This game had characters with more heart. Liam was probably one of the best buddy characters I've seen in an adult game. Underneath all the craziness...is a buddy that has your back. Most of us can relate.

Becoming a DIK is fun but it's still about getting laid. This game has stakes and the characters felt more real. Most of these games don't have stakes (other than sex). The last couple I can recall are PhillyGames "Depraved Awakening" and Tora games "Redemption for Jessika." Sadly, Tlaero has retired (NOT retired, YES). She was is an excellent writer of erotic games.

I wish there were more of these types of games that had actual stakes...where you could care about the characters rather than just getting laid. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy the beautiful renders and sex scenes...but if you're playing a game, it's better if it's interesting and there's some character development.

As so many have said before, I hate you DrPinkCake!! You worked your way into a masterpiece episode by episode and then ripped our souls out!

Things I loved:
Liam
Megan
Melissa
Megan + Melissa + MC Happily ever after(before X)
Liam + Rena option
Crazy humor and night at the Inferno

Things I hated:
OMGWHY!!!! (Self Explanatory)

I'm torn about whether I like the story after two items above. While I feel it was well written and presented, it's horribly dark and probably a direct callback to the robbery in the beginning of the game. Poor MC can't catch a break. Liam + Rena helps lighten things a bit though.

I just finish the game and posting here isn't my thing but...

For fucks sake.. I came here for a porn game and end up with a tear in my eye and a smile in my face..

The art and sex-scenes are great and all but that fucking story bro.. It hits hard. I never though I was going to be so invested in a story in this kind of games. 10/10.

btw Liam best bro ever.
