VN - Ren'Py - Boxed In [v0.4] [badbod]

⠀⠀So MC and a bunch of other women are kidnapped and forced to enacts sexual acts with each other to be freed. As of v.0.4 there is a couple of hours of content, including several sex scenes. I like what I saw and want more.
⠀⠀The only issue so far that stands out to me is how all women are so on board to have sex with their dad/uncle/brother from the get go. They don't need no convincing to get all intimate with the MC, except maybe the first girl, and even then she got into it way too quickly. There is no tension, no corruption and very little drama. Our characters get abducted by god knows who and for what purpose, and forced into sexual relationships, but they don't really mind, in fact they're all into it. It's explained as some kind of genetic disability feature that forces the descendants of their bloodline to be attracted to each other, which is not a very convincing explanation.
⠀⠀Animations feature fluid motion, but lack speed, amplitude and whole body and camera movement. So, like, above average but I've seen better. They also only last for a single line of text, which is inconvenient, because it forces you to stop reading. There is no music and no sfx. Graphically it's okay. Characters look attractive, but given the setting, background is 90% grey rooms with some occasional props. Images are adequately compressed so there are no artifacts or grain.
⠀⠀Choices determine whether you're roleplaying as a family man with tight moral code, or a family man with pants too tight around your groin area.

This not just a game. This is an experience. One of the best VN i have ever experienced. There’s a lot of sex, and the scenes are pretty hot, well done in terms of the renders and animations. Ultimately, the taboo is a massive defining factor of the scenes in the game though, and those who specifically like an incest game will find themselves very well served here.

An exquisite example of a dev who knows what the incest lovers people want. The writing is good, the characterization is solid which is something a lotta devs struggle with in my experience. Making different characters actually behave and sound like different characters, which these do! Kelly is playful, Jennifer is confident, Megan is mischievous, etc. The plot is contrived, sure, but in a charming way! I'm looking forward to seeing where it goes. 5 stars from me.

I have played a similar locked room type of game before (it's here on f95zone, I forget it's name). But in that game the promise of instant DEATH always hovering over the characters. Not my thing.
This game however there was no over whelming sense of imminent danger.
What was plane to me was how much frustration all the Character's were feeling. That maddening sense of not knowing 'the WHO'
or 'the WHY' they were where they were. To my amazement I suddenly realised, that I too was furiously trying to figure out 'the WHO' & 'the WHY'! My amazement was due to knowing just how USELESS I am & will always be at solving 'WHO DONE IT' mysteries.
But now to the reason why I decided to rate this game..... YES I ADMIT I DO NOT MIND THE WHOLE FAMILY TABOO THING... Hey we all like what we like. I have my opinion as does everyone else. I LIKE WHAT I LIKE, YOU LIKE WHAT YOU LIKE & THEY LIKE WHAT THEY LIKE...
Where was I.. Oh yeah, I only saw this game because it was in the incest category on the website I was on, so I started playing.

So there you have it.
I thankyou for trying to read my dribble.

One of the best INCEST games
It's not easy make the game feel as the characters are related but this one works well despite how corrupted and lusty their behavior is
4 daughters, sister and insanely lustful mom

This game is ridiculous. Find out MC had a relationship with sister in the past. Every member of family, niece, daughters etc are all in love with the MC. Cannot take this game seriously for how out of whack it is

You play as a powerless cuck mc who has been sexually abused by everyone who has ever met him but yet tries to act macho

The writing is full of gross dialogue showing how pathetic mc is, like being forced to go down on pensioners every day. Meanwhile the stupid daughters supposedly love the idea of being sexually abused.

The female models chosen are good which I suspect is the only thing propping up a game with an mc that noone sane would want to be.

All choices are fake and the game is essentially kinetic

OK, 3.5 would be fairer.

After some positive reviews and good comparisons to another game that must not be named, I was convinced to try out this game, despite it been relatively new.

The amount of content in the game was a pleasant surprise. Well, done to the dev on that one.

The characters are all pretty and the sex scenes are very enjoyable. The initial encounter was also pretty good and more or less as expected but then the game went from good to average in a heartbeat.

The idea and premise of the game was wasted in my opinion. It played out more as a fan service harem game .

I'm not even a fan of horror, but the absolute lack of tension takes this from a potential great game to just an average harem/incest game.

I still enjoy it but will pretty much forget it once the game is completed.
I feel like the game is a missed opportunity.

PS. The plot twist that is still to be revealed is pretty apparent and I think will not be that surprising when revealed. Maybe the dev is using misdirection, but I doubt it.

I really enjoyed Boxed In! The story is unique.

The visuals in the game are impressive. Although the animations are limited, it doesn't make the overall experience any worse.

Rendering: 5/5
Characters: 5/5
Story: 5/5
Gameplay: 5/5
Animation: 5/5

Overall, Boxed In is a great game! The characters are appealing, the story is very engaging, and the gameplay is smooth. I highly recommend this game to anyone looking for an unforgexperience.

Rating: 5/5

Fun plot, good sex scenes. Way better than your average porn game. The Saw style setup is an enjoyable change from the typical plot of these kinds of games. Looking forward to see more of the game and other stuff from this developer.

Straight forward concept where you get to fuck your whole family (mother/aunt is described, but the scenes are all sister/daughters). Simple rooms mean the dev is doing quick renders, in high quality, with great models and animations. The story has some twists despite the apparent simpleness of the setup. Highly recommended for daddy protagonist and corruption fans.

this game is absolutely incredible. pushed so many great buttons and some of the setups, challenges and reveals were extremely well done.

my only recommendation to the dev would be to include a path that plays up the "forced" aspect a little more. its hot that some of the girls want it for sure, but a few characters really struggling and only doing it because they're forced would also be hot for a different fetish and more variety. i really like the idea that a few characters start far more innocent and take a lot longer to really get into it. but maybe that's for the next season of BOXED IN with a brand new family and even crazier challenges.

Story is pretty decent but it gets ruined by everyone wanting to fuck their dad/brother from the get go and some MC has already fucked which makes the hole plot of the story about being trapped and forced a bit pointless when its something they all seem to want or already doing.
Its all about incest so you need to have that fetish or you shouldent touch this one.

I saw some reviews calling this well paced but in truth its really not, its a mindless fuckfest and goes from 0-100 in 5 mins so "well paced" no not in any way, for those just wanting the pure fuckfest games you will love this since everything moves forward extremly fast and without any real story to it, just jump from one sex scene to the next.

MC gets trown into a box and apprently hes hole family is in the complex as well, MC then meets them all little by little and its all about MC fucking them or doing something sexual with whoever none stop.

Theres no choices in this one and you might as well call it kinetic novel, sure you get choices to say no but since game is all about do it or get killed you dont really have a choice in anything, you can say no you dont want to but it will still happen every time.

Personaly im not into the kinetic novels and i like to have more choices so i wasent a big fan of this one.

As for the cast, some look good others are ugly as fuck and thats one of the main issues when you cant turn anyone down and your forced to fuck someone you find ugly then it becomes a turn-off which is never good for an AVN.

Animations needs a bit of work, they arent all that bad but to short and there needs to be alot more dialogs while animation is going and not just a few clicks on the mouse.

Theres no music which makes it a bit boring, granted there are a few sound effects but its just not enough.

Alot of the reviews look fishy to me as well, this is not anywhere near a 5 star game and yet so many gives it 5, i expect quite a few to be fakes since alot arent active users either and just has a single review.

This is the developer's first game as a hobby, and he has definitely managed to make things interesting from the get-go! I strongly believe there's a need for more interesting settings, themes, environments, etc.
Obviously 3D modeling and animation are such fields that something could always be better, especially when it comes to indie/solo developers. But I have no specific complaints about Boxed In so far. Hope to see a lot more from the dev!

Boxed In...

A cube, if you will. Or, loosely based on, or at least is somewhat influenced by the 'Cube' - which is a great horror movie.

And I tell you what, the basic premise works fabulously well with this VN's incestuous nature - do it, or die...!

If you are a fan of incest, then you'll definitely want to check this out. It is far from perfect, though.

The pacing is pretty quick - which is okay. But, the game would be better if things were slowed down, building up the 'tension' before release - if you know what I mean .

I did think the premise - to force incest, in this case - was watered down and had a lesser impact as it seemed many of the characters were totally up for it, or had already fantasized about it. OR, already doing it! Bit of a shame, if you ask me.

The H-scene animations were mediocre, but overall, I did think the dev has a bit of an eye for making H-scenes in general. Just slow the pacing down a bit. There be fap material here.

Sound is grossly mis-used here - that is, no music, not even background noise. Just the occasional SFX for a door opening, for example.

'Tis good for an incest game, but could be better, much better. And it is an average VN overall.

This Box[ed In] is one you may like to jump in and out of, just for the fun of it. Because, you can.

A good game that you definitely don't want to pass on if you are into incest. Slighty slower pacing and it would be a 5/5 for me, but that's personal preference.

I don't have any big criticisms of the game, really. It could be doing several things slightly better, but not enough to be brought up in a review I think. It's not perfect, but it's good and I enjoy it.

I am looking forward to the next updates!

If you’re into incest, you don't want to miss this one. The setting and story are really interesting, and the pacing keeps you locked in It has just the right mix of twists, and the dialog feels natural. The character interactions are also engaging. I highly recommend it, and I’m excited to see where the plot goes next.

Normally I don't rate this high on games still in development, but this one deserves it. Hats off to badbod.
Now into the review:
First off, DO NOT PLAY THIS GAME IF YOU ARE NOT INTO INCEST. It is hard core and the entire game revolves around it. No 'step-sister' or anything like that, multiple twists, although some of them you can tell are coming/ foreshadowed.
It seems to that the choices actually matter. (Shocking, I know, for a VN.)
I though, I will say this to the dev...
What was with that warning with anal? I get it was to be kind, but seems a little pointless since if you are alright with incest you are probably going to be fine with anal.
But I can't say more without spoiling the game.
Just know the renders are great. The story is good, and I am excited to see how this plays out.

Have we seen the premise before? Yes, of course we have... but I don't think we've seen it quite so sexy. What a hot start! I can't wait to see what's coming in the next updates.

There was even a cool curve ball or two I actually didn't suspect nor see coming -- that's always nice! The character models are good also! Check this out if familial love is your jam!

Great game. Story is very erotic, straightforward with no pretentiousness . Updates are regular and the game is free and requires no patron or subscribers. Models in the game are hot, and the dialogue is flirty and erotic. What more can yo ask for?
