VN - Ren'Py - Completed - Ariane In Paradise [v1.21] [dateariane]

This is a very rewarding exhibitionism-game, with very nice ideas in which situations the good looking characters show off. I don’t want to spoil too much, as the game is rather short. I have to remove 1 Star from my overall evaluation, because the game makes it rather hard to reach the finish and to find all the possible ways to go through those three days with Ariane without looking in the code or using a walkthrough. But as I would rate the rest of the experience with outstanding 6 Stars for the many moments, I had some wow-Experiences, it gets still the highest possible Rating.

The average rating is the best I can give to this game. And that's because the renders are nice, MC and Ariane are charismatic.
Buuut, that's it. the game feels, pointless when you realize that no matter your choices, or even with multiple endings, none will let you be with Ariane in the end. And then you realize that there's no point actually, except for trying to fuck her. I'm ok with that I guess. But for some reason, not having that specific ending makes everything feels, empty, unfinished somehow.

Don't get me wrong, It's better than most games out there, but it's far away from what Date Ariane and SITA used to be.
The story seems to be a bit forced already, trying to win Ariane is too repetitive, we did it in the first 2 games..
I think the only way I might come back to another Ariane game is if she is the main character.
Not that I want to see her trying to get in a guy's pants, I'd like to see her side of the story while the guys and girls try to romance her.

Also I don't really like the model changes of Ariane and Rachel.
Fit Ariane doesn't look good on her sweet face, she was litteraly the dream woman in the first games..

Overall I can recommend this game, but it's not a 5 star game like Date Ariane or a 4+ star game like SITA.

A top class game, it is easy to navigate so long as you remember to keep the charm and sexyness as high as possible for day one and day two. Using the back choice helps with this. It does need more than one play through to unlock the different sex scenes, but I did not find it a chore.

Good game overall, very interesting in many aspects, like you get to choose your occupation during a conversation and eventually where you come from depending on which path you choose.

The gameplay is quite interesting, a lot of choices leading to different stories.
Scarce H-scenes though but good ones and well integrated into the storyline.

On the down side, despite the stats that can give you hints (save and load) on the bottom left side of the screen, there is some roadblocks and they're quite difficult to bypass, could pass the first one after 3 tries but not the second, it's annoying as hell.

So i would say this is quite frustrating without a walkthrough at hand and that's why i rate it 3*, probably worth 4* with one, 5* if there were way more H-content later on.
