Ren'Py - Afterlife Harem [v0.4.4.1 Alpha] [Aph]

Beautiful rendering, cute girls, nice and soothing music, the quests are easy and simple to complete, the only thing is that the game feels a bit short. Other than that, there's nothing to complain about. Once it's completed, I'll probably play it and review again, it's not full yet so only 4* rn, but I recommend you to try it

Love this game, interesting plot, good sandbox, decent H-screen, many interesting systems and cute characters. I want to help the devs replace some ridiculous and crazy people down there and give 1 star just because the main character is not what they want (they want a super MC like lord of lust who only knows how to fuck and dominate everyone girls, these people in real life either treat girls like pieces of meat to fuck or delusional themselves).
The game has a lot of potential to grow based on the features the devs are adding and the interesting storyline, diverse characters and their abilities can help make the game more surprising in the future.

Its boring or confusing on every step.

- MC just goes with the flow. He is not a protagonist, everything happens around him, but not as a consequence of his actions. He is another NPC.

- Girls have zero emotions when discussing sex. For example, when MC fucked three of them for the first time and tries to talk about it, everyone answers something like "ok, its fine". No lust, no anger, no shame, nothing.

- Conversations are boring. "Hello", "Hello", "I'm doing X", "Ok, see ya later". Whats the point of writing these useless dialogs? There are no emotions, no jokes, no character development. Its just a briefing before next scene.

- There is a garden minigame for some weird reason.

+ Sex scenes are ok.

I guess its 3/5. I've seen games that had worse models or minimal content.
But this one gives me no emotions or drive to continue playing it.

Story 1/5
Story dident do a thing for me, also it might be a harem game but then again its not really a harem game since you dont deside fuck all, its just a huge mindless fuckfest, save girls by fucking them...its boring and pointless.

It has a relationship system for unknown reasons since you dont need to get to know anyone or do anything what so ever, girls trows them selfs on MC like crazy, within the first 5 mins MC will be with 5+ girls without knowing a thing about them, so you can forget about ever feeling anything for anyone and might as well go to a porn site and look at animations which would be alot better quality then this as well.
Even though MC is gutless and pretty submissive every girl wants him...

Girls 1/5
Its pretty clear dev either forgot the tit slider or only cares about big tit fetish since 95% is big tits so they really dident do anything for me either.

Animations 2/5
They arent good, below average even for HS animations.

Music 2/5
Standard and boring.

Choices 0/5
Forget choices, there arent any meaning full choices.

Sandbox 3/5
I guess average, it has mini maps so moving around is atleast not that bad, but mini games is just a waste of time, hint system isent worth much,

After playing the latest version I have to say it's not a 5 star game. There are a lot of problems, mainly with the game being generic. Generic sex positions, generic background music and a generic simp MC. Plus, no sounds during the sex scenes make them very generic.

Once again, another dev has decided to make a game with a simp MC that lets a lot of the women in the game treat him like trash and he only thinks with his dick. Why even bother having a "harem" game if some of the women in the game aren't even going to be LI's? They are just fillers and a waste of time like all the mini games. Some of them might be there for the storyline, but isn't the purpose of having a harem game supposed to have the MC get all the women?

The so called "hint" system needs a major overhaul from the beginning as does most of the dialogue. Most the time you're just running around on the map hoping to be at the right place at the right time. No where in the game does it say you need to have the heart at 100% before getting to the next character scenes with any of the women.

Maybe with a major overhaul of the entire game it might be worth a higher rating. As it stands it's just another basic Koikatsu game with a somewhat ok storyline. It would be nice if there was some kind of context or short background storyline as to how the MC gets killed to give the player a better understanding. It just starts at going from 0 to 100 with no explanation.

- game is ruined by pathetic scared total loser soyboy mc. Some girls treat him like a trash and insult/bully him most of the time, he can't stand up for himself, others using him as a dildo and nothing more. Hard to say anything positive about this avn if you are forced to play something like "this"
- boring sex scenes, not to mention mc behaves in most of them like wimp and sub
- forced lesbian content
- story is not interesting

1 star mainly because of MC

After another year of playing, I decided to edit my review.

As much as I really liked the game at first, the updates take so long, and the progression is almost non-existent, that I started to lose interest.

My review used to be 5 stars, now I don't know if it's worth 3.

It takes a long time to update and when it does, I feel like the game's content either goes in circles or stays in the same place.. both in terms of story and character progression.

My main motivation was to have something with the goddess, and even so, they only put a relationship with her recently after years, and even though nothing major happens to her, she is the least explored character in the game, and she was supposed to be the most important since the objective of each character (mc and lis) is to protect the goddess, and I feel like she is always left aside.

and each update is just a few seconds of H-scenes with a few characters
while the paid VIP on Patreon is full of H-scenes that have no impact or are not even part of the main story.

the mc is very “ok”; example… sophia is a girl from whom the mc bought a house from her mother for his own daughter to live…
works in a photoshoot studio, and the boss of this studio is into MC and Sophia, she simply breaks into the house where MC bought for Sophia, is there hitting on Sophia when MC arrives, and they start to do a roleplay, where MC was going to have sex with Sophia but the boss doesn't let MC have Sophia, and decides to give MC her ass to stop MC from having sex with Sophia, and MC just says "ok"
Then when the MC was finally going to be with Sophia after having eaten the boss, she refuses to let the MC put it in Sophia's pussy and decides for the MC how he should have sex with Sophia, and the MC just accepts... After the roleplay ends, the boss says "Now that you've received your payment, get out of here" and the MC says "Hey should I really leave or is it roleplay?" and the boss says "It's roleplay... but I need to discuss some things in private with Sophie" and the MC leaves.

and this is just one example, there is another antagonist girl who enters people's minds and emotionally blackmails them, which has already made the MC lose several +18 scenes because she was controlling the MC's body and the MC didn't witness any of that... like a femdom doing blackmail with the MC.

I feel like this game is stuck in time... in every sense, even though the story has potential... “afterlife”, I feel like the potential is being wasted.

a game with simple graphics, standard and simple animation scenes... with a lot of random things in the VIP... I feel like the game lacks a bit of care.

The graphics are nice, and story is interesting.
For the sake of rating this as what it is, its 4 stars.

That being said, the sex scenes are forced and I already am not interested in two of the LI's (one's a bitch and another tries to cockblock you, then leaves you to hanging in a fight while she cuddle's the chick that brought you back into the scene that you were cockblocked out of), so this game isn't for me. If you're okay with that, then this seems like a pretty good game aside from the MC being a bit of a pushover for as far as I played the game (stopped when I was forced into a sex scene with the bitch), so not too far and maybe he changes, maybe he doesn't. I dunno - you find out.

I didn't notice the game for a long time because of the name. Started yesterday and finished in one go. Very good story, pretty characters, a little gem that hasn't received enough attention so far. I'm looking forward to seeing more of it.

Release 0.2.7 Public
(technically reviewing 0.2.6, but the new version just dropped today and that reminded me that I had intended on rating this game a while ago but I kept forgetting to do so. )


A solid 4/5 star game right now.
Story is fairly linear, but since it's a sandbox game you can take it at your own pace and pursue the gals in whatever order you want once you've completed the intro.
Koikatsu models/graphics so nothing super amazing here in that department.
The characters all look good.
There's a decent variety of body types.
And you can see the dev spent a good amount of time customizing each character to make them all unique/stand out.

The characters have a decent range of personalities as well, but they kinda tend to follow some pretty common character archetypes/tropes.

The H-scenes are pretty decent too. Not a whole bunch of them yet, but there's still a fair amount to see, and kore keep getting added with every update.

The story is pretty quirky too with some funny moments sprinkled in here and there for a few good laughs.
Basically a god brings you back to life to help transport lost souls to the afterlife. But almost as soon as you meet and join her team things go off the rails. You stumble across some dangerous rivals, fight off some ghosts, and discover your own hidden power isn't quite what anyone expected.

There is a little bit of grind in the mini-games, but it's really not that bad. And fishing pays out really well once you get some decent gear for it. Was basically how I made most of my money.

Totally worth a shot imo.

Better rhan average.
It's not quite great YET, but it's definitely getting there, and it keeps improving with every update.

Give it another year of development and I'm sure it'll be a 5 star game.

This game surprised me a lot, great gameplay, great scenes, interesting story, fun game, nice and funny girls, just need more things to do with them
I hope you keep updating this work, really very good

Version 2.3

A very promising game. The story is very unique and engaging. The characters in the game look very nice and each one has a unique personality. The gameplay is well designed and the navigation is very smooth and instinctive. All the features are well implemented without bugs. The scenes are well made and the dialog is well written. Overall a great game and I am looking forward to seeing it progress. Hopefully more people see this game so it can get the audience it deserves.

A very good game from all perspectives. Good story, wellmade scenes, it will be great in the future if the game will have an rpg advanced system aswell. Also i tryed to find battles with souls or at least find a soul but no luck, its not implemented yet?

As of 0.2.0, what is there is good and there is a lot of potential. The setup is tropey - as the overview says, MC dies and gets an offer for a second life. Thankfully, you stay as yourself. You aren't suddenly inserted into the body of another person who was on their death bed. This and the premise for what you're doing with your second life is quite interesting imo, and helps me get over the somewhat tired isekai start.

The girls so far are good. Between the main girls you're partnered with and all of the side characters, there is a good variety of personality. It is Koikatsu models, which is always a plus for me personally. I like how they look. And so far, I've not seen any characters that reminded of me someone from any other Koikatsu based game I've played, which is great.

For a still quite young project I was really happy to find that it has music. I understand not all games will start with it, but I can't stand the silence personally. So, music always wins points from me and usually motivates me to support a project sooner.

The H scenes are well animated imo, and there are already many of them. Most importantly, the personalities of the girls stays consistent during the H scenes. They don't turn mega-slut the second they're pricked.

There is a fishing mini-game that I hope gets some refinement, as is you're just clicking fish that pop up until the progress bar fills and you catch a fish. It really isn't all that interesting, but wouldn't surprise me if it temporary. And I do think some of the early fight scenes could see some touching up as well. They're not bad, just not that great either.

This one is worth a watch and has enough content right now that is worth checking out. I could see myself supporting this one in the near future, I've enjoyed it and hope the dev sticks around. They have a good thing going so far.
