    The dialogues, in 80% of cases, belong to the omniscient narrator (third person) rather than the characters, which is not ideal for a relationship-driven story

    However, I really like this developer's mindset regarding relationships
    All the girls and MILFs are in love with the MC, but Diana's bf is better at fucking and has a better cock size
    In fact, it seems that the developer's goal is to give all the girls an emotional attachment to the MC, yet when it comes to sex, Diana's bf performs better
    This is awesome
    Do you know why? Because you experience Vanilla and NTS simultaneously without the fear of losing or being stolen, etc
    In other words, in this game, you can fully experience the pleasures of sharing and NTS without even a trace of masochistic or negative emotions, which are common in NTS games

    Other strengths: rendering, animation, models, environment, the tragic and captivating start that added good tension to the story, original models, etc

    If he continues with this idea and fixes the dialogue issues, this game will have a successful future

    In the future, if the issue I mentioned improves, I'll raise the rating

    Models are good, story is not bad but there is no interaction for playing or choosing paths etc.. Just for a con, VN makes it boring for the gameplay. And there are som gaps in the story. Anyway keep up to good work. I think it is good for just VN reader people.

    To sum it up: it's worth playing.
    The story is good. The graphics are great. It feels like the author is taking this game seriously.
    The only drawback is that the characters all look too similar. I don't know if it's the author's preference or because there is not enough money to buy DAZ materials.
    Different story fragments of multiple families are combined into a complete story.
    Good cinematic narrative approach.
    I had no expectations before I started playing it
    But it gave me a pleasant surprise after playing it.
    Great new game.

    VERSION: v0.1
    SUMMARY: Pretty good start, with decent content all round
    RATINGS: (out of 5):
    1. Models: 4
    2. Animations: NA
    3. General Visuals: 4
    4. Characters: 4
    5. Story: 4
    6. Writing: 4
    7. UI & Gameplay: 2
    8. Content (amount): 3
    9. Sound & Music: 3
    10. Fetish & kinks: 3
    Average: X of 50 possible points giving a X% rating i.e. X stars.

    PROS:
    1. Models are good looking, MC is not over the top, average but decent, LIs are all generally good looking and attractive.
    2. Story is not exactly complex but interesting in a particular slice of life way.
    3. Kinks are not bad so far, may have a bit of everything eventually, but for this version, though small, its got some good stuff.
    4. Music and ambient sounds are good.
    5. Writing is pretty good, reads well, nothing over the top, too long winded either.
    6. Characters seem to be interesting and at least somewhat complex and unique, all adding there particular personality to the mix.
    7. Able to adjust relationships with at least one person.
    CONS:
    1. More kinetic right now with little if any choices which is a little shitty.
    2. Also very short, not thaaat short but not much here to really review properly.
    3. No animations of any kind
    4. No lewd sounds of any kind
    FINAL THOUGHTS & SUGGESTIONS:
    • Relationship may be confusing to set, the impression I got is that the woman could be the MC's mother or such, as she was looking after the MC while he grew up, ruling out a sister (probably) so Aunt or Mother would be my guess or something else, depending on your choice of course.
    • Tags are missing from the game description and also what we could expect in future updates.
    • A good initial release, not much here though, but could be good and since the developer appears to have some kinky ideas going, I hope that there are very few limits in this game as it progresses. Will keep an eye out
