    I have never played a western porn game before and it completely blew my mind! The models are definitely top notch and will keep you dreaming about them for nights on end. Kudos to the designer for sculpting, bringing the soul into these creations. Scrumptiously epic

    Best adult game for now, it had good story telling , humor , lovable character (y'all are gonna attach to them) Best adult VN you gonna play, the Renders and Animation is damn really good also a mini game a icebreaker to not get bored

    - the game are similar to telltale games so this one is for you (every choices has consequence)

    I think it is the best thing I have read and played, the plop twist in chapter 3 is brutal, I did not expect it at all, the characters that are well done and what to say the lewd scenes, hopefully they will take more caps

    Very beautiful and interesting game with great story, nice and deep characters, a lot of fun moments and much more else.
    The author really takes it seriously and trying his best to keep the quality of his game at very high level, and so it's still one of the top-rated games among all.

    By far the greatest VN I have played.
    With a story packed full of heart and heart ache ,
    You find yourself lost within this tale of a journey into human behaviour and emotions.
    Excellent writing, design and of course the animations. Can't wait for episode 5.

    With help from a walkthrough I got a near perfect ending for season 1
    You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
    but after finishing I had this strange feeling of emptiness in my chest that lasted for over two days after finishing the season. It felt like I moved away from my friends and family or broke up with someone after a long term relationship. A game has never made me feel this bad before.

    10/10 love it, great scenes, meaningful choices, great characters, can't wait for episode 5

    A steam sale brought me here looking for similar styles. I think the very nature of virtual novels discourages replayability but you get more profound experience with plot and characterization.
    I would appreciate more kink in the game but what's there is phenomenal. Hard to find this level of quality in similar games. Very beautiful, great variation in music.
    I fell in love with some of the characters but i did think a few were a little unbelievable/stereotypical like Derek and Chad. Loved the story aside from anything to do with Derek whom was just over the top and broke the immersion for me a few times.
    Lots of content for the price tag on steam really felt i got my money's worth looking forward to season 2.
    Aside from my very few criticisms I think it really sets the bar for an adult virtual novel.

    This game is gold! Hilarious and realistic. The renderings are phenomenal.

    The main characters all display genuine, real emotions. I very much enjoyed it.

    It could not have been easy to pull this off, but i am glad you did! Thank you!

    Oh yeah and the soundtrack is awesome!

    Reviewing v0.4.2, no spoilers.

    So my rating for this is 4 stars which is about as low as I can go without feeling guilty about it. But the fact of the matter is, I didn't really enjoy playing this game.

    The graphics are truly top-notch, all of the renders and the animated scenes are pretty much flawless, really top-tier stuff and there's also just so much content with so many extremely hot girls, so I can't really say anything negative about it.

    I kinda also like the structure with the alternating VN-style and the more sandbox-style free roams in between. It does away with the sort of grinding often associated with sandbox games while also feeling more interactive than pure visual novels.

    I also really like the characters and the relationships between them, they are really complex, really human and believable, and you really get the feeling that these characters have complicated backgrounds that shaped their personalities.
    The story is very engaging and interesting and gets a lot of foreshadowing in from the beginning, the plot is clearly thought out from the beginning not just made up as you go along.

    So why don't I enjoy playing it? Well the reason lies with the branching structure of the game where choices really have a big influence on the course of the story. In general, I sort of enjoy that structure; I'm not opposed to a straight-up streamlined VN that's more like reading a book than really interacting with it, but it can be nice to have your choices matter.
    In this case though... the complexity of the branching is insane in this game. You kinda have to give the dev credit for it because it can't be easy to write a general trajectory of a game while also having your choices hugely influence it. But it's just simply too hard to predict anything here, one simple dialogue choice (of which there are myriads) might fail to tip the relationship just over the point where you might have some scene with them later. And you probably won't know the effect until like 2 episodes later or even not at all, you're mostly not made aware of the consequences your choices had, not even in retrospect.
    So I played this game at first "only" with the walkthrough mod, which tells you just generally in which sort of direction any dialogue option will take you, but not really to which big differences it might lead in the future. Then beginning somewhere in episode 2 I started noticing I was missing scenes, so I started playing it with the proper walkthrough; even then, I started missing a few scenes in episode 3 (and yes, even with multiple shots at different routes) probably because I missed something in episode 1 and didn't want to play the whole game again just to possibly still miss the scene because no one knows exactly how to get there; I mean, you don't even know what scene you're missing, with which character, there's just a blank space in the scene gallery, so I don't even know which character I'm supposed to be doing something different with.

    It just gets very exhausting after a while, and, IMO, really impossible to unlock all the scenes if you don't have the walkthrough which I really don't think should be necessary to take you through the whole game, that just takes the fun out of it, I really generally just want to use walkthroughs if I'm stuck somewhere specific. And even so, going through episode 3 literally scene by scene and dialogue option by dialogue option with the walkthrough, I ended up not being able to unlock everything.

    A major part of this is also because there's no rollbacks in this game and you can't replay from specific points if you didn't save there or try certain scenes again. So you're probably stuck replaying the entire thing again if you got one or two minor things wrong early on. But, you know, you might not need to do that, maybe it was something recent you did wrong, but again, you have no way of knowing at what point you went wrong or even with which character you went wrong.

    I also think that to find the special renders during the free roams may be a bit too hard, which again wouldn't be a big deal if you could just replay them afterward or even had a proper indication shortly afterwards that you missed some, but you're mostly stuck playing until at least the end of the episode to really understand where you might have missed some things.

    So you can look at all this criticism and think I'm just a whiny bitch complaining about the game being too hard, and hey, if that's the case, fine. It's still true that because of that, I can't really enjoy playing it normally and I imagine that's also the case for other people. If you don't mind all of this work to try and get to the few scenes you're missing, then by all means. But honestly, at his point, it almost feels like grinding which is kind of weird because I think the dev specifically tried not to have any of that in here.

    But I still want to somehow play the game all the way through because of everything else, the great renders, great animation, great story, great characters... but I just can't, it's just too frustrating and exhausting.
    I don't think I'll end up playing future updates, depends on how much time I've got on my hands, but it really seems like the game just gets more convoluted with every update, every episode to the point where it's just becoming ridiculous. Maybe if someday the whole thing is finished and there is a clear and obvious walkthrough available, I'll go through it again (even two or three times if I have to, to get everything, as long as I'm absolutely certain, that I actually will get everything) but at this point, I just can't.

    Oh and n.b., I realize that you can unlock every scene and render with a cheat mod but that's not really a solution to the problem, is it? If I just wanted to watch the scenes, I wouldn't play erotic games and VNs, I'd just watch porn. I want to be able to get to that point myself, to figure it out. But like I said, just seems too impossible to me, especially if you have no help whatsoever from walkthrough mods or classical walkthroughs.

    So take this review how it's meant, I still think the dev has demonstrated true skill here, this could very well be a top-tier game and it might be for some people who are not as annoyed by the points I mentioned as I are but if you haven't played it yet, know what you're getting into.

    This game is really immersive. Can seem kinda obsurd at times, but i guess that makes the game more entertaining.. The sex scenes are well made and the 3D renders are great. The CG is very advanced. Being a dik is a very well made and is definitely worth playing.

    I feel like this game is one of those things that you encounter once in a million times and you regret nothing about it. Nothing that hasn't been said already, just fucking amazing. The writing, the characters, the music, the feelings, this game just really makes you encounter with yourself in a lot of ways and generates such a special place in your memory. Amazed by the amazing. Can't wait to see this project grow more and more.

    Bought the game on Steam (when it was still available here in Germany) because Acting Lessons was one of the best written VN's I read/played.

    Love the rendering, love the characters (as an long-time p&p-RPG-player great characters are the salt in every story!), love the impact of the choices in the game!

    Great game, and I hope season 2 will be available on Steam in Germany again ...

    Almost all of the games on this site are childish and immature... this is no exception... but it's also very good at what it does, because it's consistent. It doesn't try to win over your emotional state with drama that is quickly undone by childish acts of depravity, like most titles.

    I can't stand to read some tragic backstory and start to care for a character only to have that up-ended by frathouse characterization. This game doesn't do that. It knows it's "Revenge of the Nerds" and never tries to be "Pretty In Pink". Soo many titles could learn from this.

    I generally prefer more grown up situations and more authentic emotion... but if that isn't there, at least be consistent and entertaining, and this surely is. Choices seem to have some consequence, although it could be better. I've played two titles by this author and his side characters are top notch. The comic relief guy in both is very funny. And the dialog has wit.

    This isn't trying to win awards... it's trying to entertain. It's confident in what it does, and it does it well. And that's consistent in both titles I've played by this guy... Even though I like to think and care more when I open these, I still look forward to more of their work.

    My only complain is this isn't a completed work... it's just one chapter, or so it seems... it ends on a cliffhanger with many unresolved threads. I wanted more, and not in a way that is enjoyable... but still, I will look for the next chapter in this saga.

    This game is quite frankly fantastic. There are a lot of beautiful renders and animations. The writing is actually pretty good and It is one of the few games of its type where I don't skip dialogue. It a decent number of choices and the minigames are also surprisingly fun (love the math and english tests).

    One of if not THE best adult game I ever played
    Artwork is great, models and animations are awesome, story is fun and situations are hot. Lot of hard choices, now I just want to start it over to try other paths.

    Acting Lessons was already a masterpiece, that one is taking the same way. The biggest difference with other games I see is that deep characters buiding, we can see lot of work has been done to make characters reactions and thoughts realistic. They made me laugh, they made me a bit sad, they made me hard (lol), they surprised me, lot of mixed feelings while playing to your games. Even the mini games are balanced, not too easy, not too hard, and I enjoyed these school tests lol.

    Thanks for that huge work really, and I hope it will open you some doors for something more "serious" (and well payed) cause you deserve.

    Excellent renders and likeable characters with different and beleivable personalities. Choices that really matters, and some interesting minigames. Also a creator that seems to be comitted to update his games.

    This is probably my favorite game in this genre and considering its not even done I cant wait to see how it continues developing. The characters are interesting and diverse. The writing is surprisingly good and not in an overly verbose way, instead characters speak in a way that seems natural to them and their character. The renders are obviously great, and the animations are well done. Overall, would definitely recommend this game.

    DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND DOWNLOAD THIS GAME

    This is seriously one of the best visual novel porn games ever created and should be seen as the apex of high-quality porn games that other devs should look to for inspiration. The amount of effort put into this game is unreal.

    Story/Writing: 5/5- This is literally the only VN that kept me engaged in the story/characters from start to finish and the only VN that did not have me skipping/skimming through the writing. You care about these characters which make the lewd scenes even better. Even the male characters like Derek are amazingly written. The writing is funny and smart with a great overarching story.

    Renders/Models: 4/5- Aside from MC's ridiculous haircut and Isabella's eyes of death, all the characters look great with no paper bags required. I personally could use more big breasted/ass women in this game though.

    Sex scenes: 5/5- Animations look great with a good amount of variety between each scene.

    Overall, the game's strongest suit is the writing and characters, and the ability of the game to keep you engaged.

    I was a little wary of this after seeing the disclaimer at the beginning (I actually still think a simpler disclaimer would work as well without driving away potential players), but playing it there wasn't much in the game that was that offensive. The renders are excellent quality and the story is interesting enough. I turned off the minigames after my first try as they seemed t be distracting (I don't consider that a negative since the developer put in the option to turn them off). I think it would flow easier without being locked into some Dick/Chick decisions, but after losing my initial save I used a mod that allows switching status allowing free choices (Choices still have an impact on future scenes that cheats won't overcome which keeps it interesting). Overall I really enjoyed it and look forward to seeing more.
