First and foremost, Badbod, congrats on finishing the game.
I really want to give this game 5/5 but unfortunately I didn't think the ending was as good as the rest of the game.
First gameplay and art. The gameplay mostly consistent of choices that are mostly illusions of choice, the choices mostly break done to would you like to go further in the scene or stop there. The art is good, not much to say about it. No over used models but its nothing that unique. I will say the character models look good and its nice to see older woman actually look older.
Now for the story, most of this will have to be hidden behind a spoiler tag, its a very story driven game (but not slow burn). The game's story is really good and I highly recommend it; A quick synopsis before the spoilers saw but horny.
More in-depth summary. MC wakes up in a mysterious room with an attractive woman, and to get out of the room needs to perform sexual activities with the women with him, the twist they're his family.
Ok so the reason I say I want to give this game a 5/5 is because the before the final scene of the the last update (0.4) I thought the game was perfect, it somehow made the taboo story feel natural, not an easy feat, but that final scene of the update leads to something bland (not bad just bland). It feels like you get an exposition dump explain why what's happening, then you pivot into a generic incest-harem story. Also the reason why the choices feel like an illusions of choice is because if you minimize the sexual activity (why would you play like this, I don't know) you still get an alternate ending that still leads to incest just with different characters.
The Dev understood not to over complicate the story. Sometime a simpler story is so much better then getting so up your own ass and thinking you are writing the greatest piece of art only to crash and burn(out). Not to mention the dev has fun with the taboo, something most games miss; most games do incest because that the norm on this site not because the taboo of it all.
Additionally, before the final scene the game feels predictable but in a good way. Basically the more you play the more obvious the twist becomes, and it feels like a smooth progression that lets the player realize the twist before the MC. You are almost waiting for him to figure it out but he will get there eventually, except for the fact the MC decides to cheat and break the "game" result. If felt like he reading the last chapter of a book before when you are in the middle. Probably the worst part of the MC cheating was he basically states as soon as he saw his sister he figured it out; the entire premise falls apart because of that. Why was he mad at the end, why did he want it to end, why is anything a surprise at any point? they do give an excuse, he was too tired from all the sex, pretty weak reason, adding logic to a story that doesn't need it.
There are other aspects that make the game feel like it rushed to an ending. For example why did the sister have twins, that could have been a great twist if it happened naturally it would have been another great twist but just telling you feels so dull. Same for the mom, why does she just basically show up during the ending, she could have been part of the game or even the mastermind of it all.
This last point is more of my personal issue but since they do just lean into the family fuckfest at the end (which I actually not against as long as the pacing is good or if the pacing is bad but the story does matter) but why don't they go further, like when the daughter pops out of the cake, way take her to the room, fuck her in front of the family, have them cheer and get off themselves off. Have had more fun with the family taboo theme
Sorry for the giant block of the spoiler, I do think this is a really good game just think the ending kinda drops the ball. As much as I don't care about sequel I hope there's a sequel that takes place with the same MC (or at least he's part of the story) about 20 years later or at least a short story. The ending does set up something if the dev chooses to go that path
I look forward to what ever the DEV works on next, hope they have some sort of way to advertise is to i don't miss it; no twitter (x), no bluesky, no patreon, nothing.
