pretty good other than a few plotholes that should be resolved and some of the promised content actually added in future updates. if there's ff/m, m/f/m content in future updates eric shouldn't be so hostile towards voyeurism or the pc joining in. if it's just going to be eric content where the pc ends going to military for peeping every time, there's really no point to their agreement. better to just stick to the war route if ds is not going to remain consistent with the options. The agreement should be corrupting all the women together and the war route should be more a competition to see who can outdo the other.

Have to say... It's really bad in term of content. Here is my opinion:
*Renders are kind really good.
*System that show your % to succed with an action doesn't make any sense.
*Your mom is a bitch that doesn't care about you or anything and just want to ride Eric's dick.
*Really the mom is just the worst, the man says/does awful things and she still defends him...
* Max ( character you play) don't get any pussy basically, sucks to play as him because he seem really impotent.
*Eric, well he is the man who gets all the pussy while you get punishments from someone who should be looking after you and your sisters( Mom).
Anyway, it looks like the protagonist is Eric and not the son Max.
Ps: this is my personal opinion, you may like or not. If you don't care about the bad points i made this game may be interesting for you. -

This one is getting a lot of attention, partly because of its own quality, partly because of how its author thinks patronage works. This is how I see this game.
The GOOD:
1- Decently rendered.
Finally! Some CG content in Patreon where its author gets how render and (even most importantly) lighting should be done. It's not perfect, but it's eons beyond most content in patreon nevertheless.
2- Well done characters.
Most of the characters in this game are very well done. And the author goes a long way posing them beautifully through all the game.
3- They actually LOOK like a family!
This may seem redundant, but I'm personally tired of seeing a family where the mother, son and daughter look anything BUT related to each other. Not a thing here.
4- Eric
Now Eric is a curious element. I hate him, and would like nothing more to have him removed entirely from this game. But, then again, I sincerely wish that the MC will get to literally fuck him (sexually speaking) in game later on, because of how much hatred I have for him. Since I'm not into gay stuff, this clearly shows that the author really hit the nail with this guy, doesn't it?
5- A VN which is not run in RPGMaker
I have nothing against RPGMaker, WHEN its creator use it right, which is in a RPG! A VN, such as this and many others, should always run in proper engines, designed with VNs in mind, like RenPy, Tyrano or, even better, Unity.
6- Well done quests
They are fun and very well designed, imho. The author goes a long way in showing us what we should do, with tips and even a rough walkthrough. He also clearly show us when we reach the end of content in each (which, and I can't emphasize this enough, is very important in a ongoing production)
The BAD:
1- CG Assets are bought, not made
This is a big thing for me, and should also bother most people with some knowledge concerning Daz. Most of everything in this game is bought, with very, very mild modifications to some things, if that. I keep literally
NAMING them as I play. Haircuts, Genesys 3 models, clothing... Everything. I know that most authors does the same in Patreon, but, with the amount of dough ($) DS is currently getting monthly, I'm surprised (and disappointed) that he does not have a real 3d artist creating his own models, or, at the very least, heavily modifying the current assets.
2- Limited gameplay
DS is about to release version 0.4, and the MC has yet to leave the house, which makes me believe that the whole playthrough will occur in it. This may not bother others, but I feel a bit confined with this. It also breaks immersion for me (why would the MC never leave a house?). Again, this is an ongoing development, so hopefully this will change in the future
3- So so plot
This bothers me a bit, but, avoiding big spoilers, the story is basically the family of the MC moving to a house, and the new boss of the MCs mother hitting on all female members. And that's it. It isn't terribly bad, but it's far from some much more intricate plots found elsewhere in Patreon. Again, this being an ongoing game development, things could change and get a bit more interesting in the near future, but, as it is, it's very basic and predictable so far. This would definitely NOT be a book I would get interested reading about.
4- The grind!
Yup, this game is a bit grindy, which i'm not totally sure it works with VNs, without becoming totally boring. The author has done some changes here and there to make it less so, but, still, without mods, be prepared to spend a lot of time doing things until you finally get to the good stuff.
CONCLUSION:
All in all, I really dig this and think most people will like it. Sure the game can be confusing at times, but this being an ongoing production, we can't really comment on it until everything is in it's right place, imho. I would definitely pledge for this project, if not for how DS currently behaves, which leads us to...
The UGLY:
DS behaves (so far) as if he is some big publisher releasing AAA finished products in Steam or something. He really (and I can emphasize this enough) needs to learn what patronage is, and how it's actually a donation so he can finish his work, and not just some way for him to get rich... What bother me even more is that a LOT of people also miss this, thinking that pledging in Patreon is akin to buying, or some sort of subscription. It's not.
Edit: It looks like he might be having a change of heart with this and, if that happen, I will surely not only edit this, but also pledge for it. But, until such time, this is on hold... -

Stars on image quality alone! The story is grindy, and confusing in a few bits. Definitely worth at least one play through for the images alone, but the story is a little disjointed - at least it has the slow corruption missing from many incest games. Only thing I don't like is the cuckholding and how that part plays out.
