VN - Ren'Py - Bad Memories [v0.9b] [recreation]

One of the gems of this site.

In Bad Memories you play as Jill (or her male counterpart) who comes back to her hometown after one very lucrative job offer but end up having to face old painfull memories when she meets her old family back: her silent sister Ellie and Rachel the woman who verbally abused her.
Will she make amends with someone she used to hate or not?

The story is quite good and the characters are really well done. You can almost feel like Rachel is trully trying to repair her relationship with Jill, that Ellie and Jada are two mischievous girls (hehe) and that behind her dirty mouth and bottom bitch act Kat used to like Jill (and maybe still does).

The renders are also of high quality, being between the best VN with 3D models around this site.
Add to that the really hot lesbian sex scenes (i haven't played much with male counterpart) and this game is a definitive recommendation.

Great game to ... Recreate the fuzzy feeling of belonging, moving in to a new place, new family, open arms ready to close any gaps MC has in the humanity department.
Kinks are there, nice mischief .. if you want to ... cute babes come to cuddle.

There is stern MC extravaganza, quips, nice enough short witty remarks, MC is no push over, provided players keep their cool and are discreete.

Play, have fun, lose yourselves in this fairy tale with bubbly - naughty gamer bombshells!

A rare game in the field of "porn" games. Its is a story driven erotic novel that actually engages the player with not only a back ground story, but one that effects the way the player and NPCs react to one another.

True, other games are based on similar story sets, but most forget them to get right to "the Action." This one expects you as the player to confront ones past and demons before getting even a real whiff of the love interests.

As for graphics and characterizations, it is spot on for a realistic game. The characters are breath taking, but more than that they have stories to equal them. DAZ provides many heart stopping visuals but with out story, proper scene blocking, and pacing adult games can easily become cheap and tawdry.

This game avoids that, and it only makes the visuals more incredible.

All in all a fine play worth 5 stars, popcorn bags, or a simple two thumbs up.

Unfinished but quite recreative, and can induce emotions if you involve yourself in the narration. MC's boredom at the beginning is very palpable. Maybe the scope could be reduced further, otherwise I don't see how we are going to see the end of it (and I'm sad about that).

Good game, have nice characters, a catchy story with some mysteries to be revealed, very good sex animations and pretty graphics for the game style. Unfortunately it's not over yet, and the game durations don't pass of 2 or 3 hours. I'm looking foward for the next updates.

Wonderful game, will great graphics and animation. Looking forward to how the story line will continue from here on out. Love the fact that there is a REDHEAD in this and she is the main person in the game!!!

No secret i'm a lesbian so I tend to hunt down games that offer content i'd enjoy. While I do enjoy some of the stories and characters offered in male protag games I do like a bit of immersion myself every now and then.

Finding quality games with quality lesbian content isn't easy but this has both.

After moving away to escape an abusive home situation involving her fathers girlfriend, our protag returns to her hometown after being offered a job and runs into a familiar face. This starts her journey of building her future while getting over her past.

Several choices for the love interest and all of them have a story to tell. From comedy to cuteness to the dark past that keeps rearing it's head this is a story i'm sure many would enjoy.

It also offers a male protag for those that don't like to play female, just picked that for the sake of my review and enjoyment.

I love both the game and the dev and would deff urge anyone to give it a read and see for themselves.

These guys really know what they're doing. My positive reviews are typically a bit shorter than my negative ones, but you can check my profile and review history to find out what I typically complain about. This game doesn't have any of those problems. Great design / gameplay / writing, and my standards are fairly high. Great dev with a great product.

Review for 0.5.1:

Interesting and intriguing story with high quality renders/animations and fleshed out characters. Thus far, I haven't encountered any bugs.

Hopefully, Recreation will continue development on this game, as it has lots and lots of potential.

Excellent Game, Great Renders and Great Story. I hope the dev takes their time to flesh out more of the backstory and take things a little slow to build up more tension but the writing, models and dialogue has been great. Really do adore Rachel so can't wait to see what comes next!

So far it seems to have a good story that is slowly unfolding from the beginning . It's a shame we can't get bigger and more frequent updates. I am absolutely in love Ellie's cuteness and can't get enough of her.

Review for 0.5.2

Lots of good content so far!

Pros:
-Lots of story potential- everything from the dark-seeming backstory to the mystery pills conspiracy to who the MC really is and what happened back then
-Fun/sexy interactions with the relationship characters
-Ellie the cute mute is Adorable!

Cons:
-The story potential with the character's blocked memories and danger lurking in the background currently leaves a very sharp and bitter aftertaste due to what we currently don't know. This will probably be addressed in future updates and is probably so pronounced due to the lovely sugar content we've gotten in contrast to that.

Exceptional work Recreation!

Loved the story so far (0.5.2), keeping in mind I've only played as a female MC. Only path I didn't like was Katherine's. Despite the thing later where the MC rationalizes that Katherine could have beaten her if she really didn't want the MC to touch her, her sex scenes still felt very much non-consensual to me. Aside from that, loved the game. Only nitpick I have is that the protagonist should really clip her nails. Before the first sex scene, I was convinced she was gonna be a bottom.

There are only a few games on this site I'd rank as being 5/5s for me, and Bad Memories just joined the list. It has a really compelling and intriguing story, the characters are very well done and each unique, as I was playing I was really looking forward to the next scene I'd have with each of the main 4 girls. The 3rd scene with katie was so hot it floored me, and I love the additional angle the medicine scenes with rachel add to your relationship with her.

The animated scenes are the best I've ever seen, they're incredible. The use of sound effects is used sparingly and to solid effect, there are plenty of girls that may pique your interest. I do hope Jada's mom is added as an option too, she's hot af.

Last thing I'll say is I'm very very interested in the story, I'd love to see where it goes. I love some of the simple additions to the story like the black police officer who helped out the mc back when he was young, it's great to see his past fleshed out like this.

All in all, great game, you're missing out if you haven't played yet. Though it may be wise to hold off for a few more updates because now I'm sat here after finishing the game so far in 2 days agonizingly waiting for more!!!

First thing first: AWESOME GAME!

the characters body´s are perfect, not too over-sized like is normal in this type of games, the renders created are beatiful! all of it!
the main story is not ended yet but is promising, well done devs! or dev! i dont investigate too much on the company but well done guy/s...
the sex scenes are short but amazingly beatifuls, the animation scenes are spectacular... claps a lot!!!
THE ONLY BAD THING FOR ME IS THE DREAMS, i didnt enjoy it, put some images guys! please, dont hurt anybody moral with some violence! dont be such a prude please!
ill give it 5 stars game!

PD: i know my english is bad, im argentinian guy, so im sorry for gramatical failsXD!!

please!
END THE GAME SOON! IM IN LOVE WITH THE STORY!

Very well written and animated, Char's are well thought out and develop well through the story. I am really looking foreward to the completion of this vision, what is avail so far is engaging and a joy to experiance.

Can't wait for the how it goes
love the character and the story, especially someone who healed his sister and it turns out he had met and saved before. In the future I want to know how the fate of women in the coffee shop and in the office.

Very promissing project: cute characters, easy to read but quite interesting story, high quality CGs. A lttle bit short so far, looking forward to complete story. You should probably try it, if you hadnt already.
( My personal suggestion: animations arent neccesary for such type of game, mabe its better to focus on different arts than spending a lot of time animating one scene ).

This game has a fantastic story so far, it keeps going down the rabbit hole with intriguing twists and turns but without being too dark. The story has enough dark back story and could easily be a deep emotional game but it sort of lives in a chaotic neutral middle ground without getting too dark or too cheerful, the MC suffered a difficult childhood and this caused him to act in a way that left scars on those around him. but he’s staying positive and trying to move on and fix the past as best as he can, it works well. There are some kinda campy plot devices but they aren’t over the top enough to put you off.

There is a bit of free roam but it’s not at all Grindy and works very well and doesn’t leave you conflicted in that you might miss something.

The character renders are above excellent, backgrounds are top notch. Layout and graphics superb. The sex scenes are very good and well animated.

dialogue is very good, although a bit brief and shallow at times when you’d like some depth, but at this early stage in the game, things are still sort of mysterious.

Overall a Fantastic game so far, that doesn’t follow the incest VN clichés, its a unique story with a great angle, it’s definitely worth a play if your into that sort of game.

Bravo Recreation, this could shape up to be a great VN, I look forward to the next update!

Pros: great story with intriguing plot twists.
Great renders.
Great natural feeling dialogue

Cons: some of the plot devices feel a little campy, but they work and are easily forgivable.
Sex scenes are a bit short and shallow.
The forced “inappropriate” acts with the therapist is a little off-putting, but can be overlooked.
None of the cons are that bad at all, but just some observations.

No one who suffered that much abuse as a child through to adult would treat his abuser that way unless he was a total masochist , "damn it! i almost started to trust her" and " i'm even starting to feel bad for her" is not what you would say about the person who made your childhood a living hell.

Either MC is way over exaggerating the abuse or the story is just told really badly as MC apologizing over and over again to his abuser is just not realistic, that much anger and hate dosent just go away because you need a place to stay(which you could take anyway).


The game really needed a darker tone with a more forceful MC who takes a room in the house not because she wants you there but because the house belongs to him, not an MC so dumb he forgets multiple days in a row to do the one really important thing he has to do that day.

Sex scenes are good but there is not much in the current content

The premise of the game is quite good but the writing dosent follow through its mostly well she lied again but mybe this time i can trust her over and over again.

Art work is very well done both characters who are not over the top bimbos but normal people and backrounds are also quite nice.

Game runs smoothly and no errors so far, also quite a clean game.
