Cons

-I'm kinda ashamed of putting cons
-Bugs that soft locks the progress with some characters, which are expected for a game in development but still...
-Cryptic character affinity progress, most of the time i didn't know what i was doing with whom or what my stats are with the characters. I distaste playing a game over and over again to see if i missed out on any content.

What could be better? (IMO)

I hate to be that guy but resizing the private parts for a more realistic "feel" on both the protagonist and some characters would be a fine fix, but that's just me with my minimalistic way of thinking, i know it aint the most popular opinion to have those on small proportions here on the internet.

Final note: I'm hooked and can't stay away. Play this. Make time for it. Trust me. Support the Bones too if you got the greens.

A perfect game, but you need to finish a couple of scenes and rework others.
this game is so funny moments, you play as David (Or whatever name you choose) a boy who life with his mother Martha (milf) and sisters Lucile (big ass, small tits) and Vera (BIg Ass, nice tits)

Well, to be honest I though I already rated the game, it appears not, which might not be such a good thing for our good Doctor.

When I first played the game, it was on release 16.2, that was around 8 months ago.

I really did loved the story, the character (Lucy ) and the bestiality, not counting the inc' part that was a bit better initiated than in most games, but the grinding was a pain in the @ss and I ended editing the save, which I do not like much to do because it can cause events misses or unpleasant stuff, but this was really boring (from memory I was still grinding after 4h gameplay ...).

So yeah, back then I would have put one more star. I've anyway thrown some subscribestar support once, to show appreciation, then nothing.

And here, I see the latest update, and ho boy what a deception, so few content addition, so few valuable work I would say, and this is even more surprising knowing there is fan art all over the place for great ideas of content, which I'm sure fans would have been pleased to see integrated in the game. It seems to me like a lazy-@ss update, to keep on subscribers before a real addition, plus the saves are not compatible, meaning all the boring grinding has to be done again, thus my rating.

Then again this is just my opinion, the game is still good enough for a good time, but at some point rating should also show a trend of a game, and here I'm not sure the game is so much on good tracks.

Talking about quality, this game is one of them. all aspects of this game are diamonds to me. I still remember when I found this game 3 months ago, after finishing everything in the game. From then on I always check when a new version comes out. and it was quite tiring, but I don't regret it. it's really awesome and i'm thankful for it

Love this game one of the best on the site. Always worth the wait.

The only thing that would make it better is pregnancy! and maybe a rebalance of the required (corruption) levels for the girls. The grind can be real in this game.

Pros:
Art

Cons:
Story
Gameplay
Vera (oooh, I wish we could end her for good)
Some tags


Meh thrid-rate story about a guy with meh family/"roommates" that loves dogs and horses (and mb some other species too) way too much. Oh, and there was ghost. The end. That's it, that's the story or lack thereof.
Gameplay straight up sucks. The engine makes this game less enjoyable to play, then there's the bugs and such.
The art/animation is the best part about the game, but that's all. "NOT IMPLEMENTED" and "WILL BE REDONE/PLACEHOLDER", plus slow updates don't make things better either.
I quit mid way, deff not my type of game. Maybe I'll change my mind in the future.

Absolutely perfect game! Mr. Bones, you created a masterpiece! I’m enjoying every second I spend playing this game, and I hope to see an update soon! Did you consider making a sequel, maybe The Manor 2, where MC could go to the neighbour’s house, maybe add more characters into the game? Anyway, keep up with the good work!

Played this one some years ago and it has not been progressing at all.

Pros:
- Very good art.
- Mechanics are good.
- It has besty content. ;-)

Cons:
- Loli character.
- You will never have a complete version, the dev is a complete slacker.

Good and promising game with a lazy ass dev.
Update: After A LONG TIME, there is not real progress in this game. So, a im changing my rate for this one.

This game is amazing, not only did I enjoy the game but I really lived it, the characters are really incredible, I never got bored of it. The scenes every time I enjoy them a lot. They are very fluid. "Well, it depends on what pc you have." Lack of labeling is funny since in some scenes I did not find them funny and that adds more flavor to the game also what I liked a lot was the bestiality that I really liked the story a lot is incredible also I do not know if they pay attention in lagoons scenes but It seems that the characters look at you as if they were disappointed and in others as if they were happy about the choices you make for the scenes, it is as if they broke the fourth wall but really congratulations to the one created, also not only because it is RPG they will say there! just another type of turn-based game where you just walk around and it takes between 1 or 2 hours to find a scene, no friend, this is really going to fascinate you besides that each character has s u own personality this game really has a lot of potential, I already look forward to the next updates of this game

so the game was fun, there were some bugs and inconsistencies in the version i played and i had problems unlocking scenes without going to walkthrough art in some scenes is good and in other medium animations are sometimes fluid sometimes not, there is not that much bestiality in the version i played but game got good potential, the only thing i didnt liked were that u will miss some scenes if u plan just play it once and its somewhat tedious to repeat whole game just for handful of scenes, if these things get fixed i will give 4 or even 5 based if more good content will be added

Let's get this out of the way: If you haven't played this because of the RPGM tag, you're missing out.

Secondly, while I do believe there are people who are milking their patreons/subscribestars while drip feeding their fans content, this is not one of those games. The hilarity of people complaining about this being a scam while not paying for it is not lost on me and honestly just goes to show how good the game is when they get that upset about not having any more bt manor to play.

It also is refreshing to have the writing be non-broken English and such that I do not regret having the ability to read. Only nit-pick I have here is that not ALL of the interactions were changed after you advanced the story with the character. This being said, most of it was and the unchanged ones I suspect will be changed in the future. The art, as the previews show, is great not to mention animated and as far as I'm aware this is all being done by one guy balancing between two games so... yeah.

This is something truly special and I for one cannot wait for the full version.

Update:

This is easily one of my top 3 favorite games on the site. could not recommend more! I love that all 3 have different personalities and they arent just blank mannequins. It feels like they have an actual relationship with the MC and the dialog is nice and not super cringey like some games. I will be waiting with abated breathe for the next update.

The story line is great, there are clear ideas on what direction the developer is going for with different characters. What the characters do and how they respond to MC's actions is consistent with the personality assigned to them. The game mechanics are also consistent with that.
While there are repeatable actions, there isn't unnecessary grind in this game. You get new content fairly regularly during the gameplay.

There are a lot of characters in the game, but developer is smart about not throwing all of them into a melting pot. The new characters are introduced slowly and the extras only stay when they are relevant to progression of the storyline. You do not end up with 10 characters, all with simultaneous storylines happening. It's a regulated sandbox game, which I consider the best.

As the game is still in development, there are still bugs in it. And that is a natural thing, so I decided to not deduct points because they are generally not noticeable most of the time.

Version: 0.16.2.1

I enjoyed the game.
A simple one with nice art.
The animations are cute a feel semi fluid.
The characters with the usual personality tropes but feel ok and match well with the style of the game.
One of the best parts of the game was the music IMO. I really like the retro style, gives me the Fallout vibes.

overall its a nice game but unfortunately I won't look forward for new updates because the grind is a real put off. Even if you can spend the day with each of the characters to faster increase their traits, the slow transitions are just unbearable after you done them hundreds of times and especially when you are going to the same scenes to check if you unlocked a new advanced scene just to find out that you didn't.

The great art can only do so much for the tedious amount of work you have to do to progress the story. The cutscenes are too long and only change slightly as you have to keep activating the scene over and over again just to progress that scene. Even after you've romanced the girls you have no gallery or option to skip the dialog so you still have to go though that same scene you've watched at least 7 times by now if you wanna get to the actual good part of the game. The grinding in this game is way more tedious becuase leveling up everything, even with the "Spend time with this girl" day skip, isnt enough beacuse you also have to level uo imaginary stats that the game dosn't even tell you are there by saying "Maybe you should come back to this spot 5 more times and hope those question marks change" after a scene is failed because it then makes you think you have to go find an item to progress but nope, just watch it over an over untill it changes slightly.

This game could be perfect if it had a gallery mode or updated scenes past romancing the girls so even if you save before a scene you wont have to wait 2 minutes to see the actual sex in it. Otherwise the art is great and the actual scenes themselves are good too, but the characters aren't deep enough to justify reading the same paragraph over and over just to get to them.

I'm not sure why this game is rated so highly. It's not awful; the scenes are good and writing isn't too bad.

So what's wrong with this game? The same thing that plagues other free-roam sex games: repetition and grinding. Doing the same scenes over and over each in-game day to raise stats to slowly unlock other scenes (and it doesn't tell you how much of those stats you need). This game is flat-out boring.

And the cherry on top is the stupid mechanic where certain scenes aren't viewable unless the ghost dude is inside your body. So I'll walk all the way to the character I want to do a new scene with, and the game will say I need to have the ghost, so then I walk all the way to the basement to get him and then all the way back. This game actively wastes your time.

One of the best games out there. Interesting plot with surprisingly captivating music. The scenes are great and get better and better with each update (even the old ones). Don't hesitate to play this game because it's definitely worth your time.

Great art and high level animation, also the setting is good placed in story telling. The game have great music and good sound acting. But the gameplaye is way outdate compaired to Lust Epidemic. Still this is must play project not the less.

It's such a good game.

A combination of classic gameplay which transitions into high quality, fully animated sex scenes. The story progresses nicely. The transitions from interactions to sex scenes is amazing, and sometimes funny.

The sex scenes are replayable, characters say new things when playing the second time around and even later on when characters have certain states.

It's a pretty awesome game.

I gotta admit, this is one of my all time favorites of these games on F95. No in fact my top 5 favorites. Lets have a run down of the good things
1. Beautifully animated.
2. A good story.
3. A good main character.
4. Great supporting cast.
5. Last but not least amazing sex scenes.

Bones, never stop making games! If there was awards for porn games you'd win it over and over again bro!
