VN - Ren'Py - Completed - Dating My Daughter [Ch. 1-4 v1.01] [MrDots Games]

I just finished it and I'm still crying. This was one of the most beautiful stories I've ever experienced. When I decided to download this, I thought it was gonna be a cute Father/Daughter game, and it was just that, but also so much more. I didn't expect such an immersive, engaging, realistic and beautiful story, I didn't expect to get so connected to everyone, I didn't expect to actually feel genuine happiness and throw my arms up in the air when certain characters showed up or when something happened, I didn't expect to tear up and I certainly didn't expect to cry. This is definitely one of my favourite games, not just favourite AVN, but one of my favourite games overall. I've played alot of games, whether erotic AVNs or not as I'm sure we all have, but this is one of the most beautiful stories I have ever experienced. I don't wanna spoil much, but the ending I got, doing the flashbacks in the epilogue and remembering everything that happened and what brought us up to this point was the point that made me cry. Before that, I had teared up a few times due to what Dee said or did because those were all special and beautiful moments, but to relive everything and finally be a happy family felt amazing and couldn't hold back the tears. I'll say it one more time, this was beyond beautiful, I loved every second of it, I've got some great memories of this game that I will never forget and I'll be sure to play it again sometime. Thank you for making this beautiful story, much love <3.

Boring shots, dated game writing and characters are weak, it is a game which neither have touch or realism , flair ir fantasy or a zinger of absurdity it is well and truly mundane , and uses its main relation to taper over its glaring holes, which make this game as a truly bland presentation, not recommended
2.5

The game sounded promising at the beginning but I quicky got bored. In my opinion, this game suffers from the following problems:

1. Way too much filler dialogue and thoughts.
2. It takes forever for the plot to evolve.
3. The daughter's "innocence" quickly becomes tiring and is unrealistic to the point of becoming annoying.
4. Lots of cliches in the dialogue between father and daughter.
5. Renders are so-so and animations are mediocre.

If you are looking for a gripping story, look somewhere else. If you are looking for just father-daughter sex, there are quicker games. There's no need to put up with so much needless dialogue and chit-chat.

I liked the game even with no sounds or music at the early chapters, and somehow the game got me emotional at the end.
The choice to see what content someone wants to see is great if you want, like me, don't see some specific scenes.

The slow start was not so bad for me, but at the end it felt kind of rushed how fast it was ending and how little side characters were reappearing, and most of the endings are the same with some side characters switched; I was expecting something more of it with more differences who you choose to build relationships with besides the daughter.

Overall, the game was enjoyable and took a good amount of time to complete and see everything it got to deliver in all 4 chapters.

Good wrongfully insightful about seducing barely legal teens. Was not expecting so many game over options from previous choices, gotta choose wisely.

The incest part is really something and the way the grouping starts can be scary of how good it is, almost felt like in the mind of a predator for sure.

The music stuff is also well elaborated, I used a guide to get the best ending probably.

Yesterday i wanna play just a little but then Ch1 ended and i was so hooked! I played the whole Night Ch2! The Story, the "Mind fuck" Choices and how well written all the Charakters are.... I feel so satisfied, not alone and truly can "feel, love and hate" the Charakters. The desire to be so close to someone also touches me in my own life.


I dont know how many fapps i had but early morning i gone to Bakery. I went in with sweatpants - i wasnt care what im wearing today - with a satisfied smile on my face and everyone looked at me, started grinning, like they know how amazing my Night was. The Dirty Talk when i ordering and Payed only energized the air even more. As im leaving, it was like some of the other customers wanna follow me.
I can hardly find the words for the nice feel which i had since a long time this morning after this Game.

And now, i gone play the next Chapter.
I Like this Game which no one should miss.

I have been interested in this project since its birth back in 2016. At that time it was certainly interesting, with adequate graphics and animations and a good story, even though I don't like incest themes at all. Then over time I lost interest, the development was too slow and I thought it had even been abandoned. At the end of 2023 it was hastily finished and we found ourselves with an old product and a story that was half developed in a very poor way. I advise developers not to dedicate themselves to products that are too long and then don't have time to finish properly. Overall I don't feel like recommending it today.

I think it was the longest game I've ever played. even if there was no such thing as a slow burn, we could probably call this game a slow burn... normally I don't like games that move so slowly, but I liked this one. it really made the story make sense. (as much sense as an incest-themed game can make) I also liked the way the side characters touched the story of the father and daughter. the animations and renders are of course not very good by today's standards, but I think they were good for the years the game was developed.

I love this visual novel! Inspiration for my future project,
it's straightforward, simple, uncomplicated, and graphically it's very good.
I give it my 5 stars because it is a game that marked me from the beginning.
Congratulations to MrDots.

Original review, Nov 5: This game has two major issues.

1. It's boring as shit. I got about halfway through chapter 3 and I'm about ready to give up, mostly due to boredom.
It's fairly interesting in the first chapter. Okay in the second. The third really drives home the repetitive filler bullshit.
I might finish it, just to see the resolution, but I've already played through another game in the time since I've put it down, and I still don't feel like coming back to it.

2. The game really, REALLY wants you to share. It just won't stop bringing it up/alluding to it.
It's so bad in this regard that if I hadn't played Sunshine Love first, I wouldn't have given it a chance just because it's the same dev, and I would have assumed there would be just as much of it.
Don't get me wrong, it never forces you to share, but even after you've refused one character, it just introduces a new character to give you another chance to do so.


Another issue, that's not really as significant, but serves to accentuate the boredom, is the just okay renders and mediocre animations with just enough clipping to kill what little immersion you have left.

Like I said, I may get around to finishing this one, but I don't have high hopes for it. In fact, about the only thing I care to see for the end is pregnancy. Were it not for that possibility, I'd definitely be done with it.


Edit, Nov 20:
So, I finally got around to finishing it...Sort of. I wound up skipping through a lot of dialogue for chapter 4, since it was just a ton of meaningless filler crap.
This is by far my biggest complaint for the whole game.

It was okay. The pregnancy ending was fine, but nothing to write home about.
Although, Chapter 3 picked up a bit during the competition but was still mostly filler dialogue.
They also ramped up the exhibitionism, which isn't a big deal, but it didn't feel like the buildup was what it needed to be for it to make sense. Especially given all the filler dialogue where it could have been discussed more prior to chapter 4.

That's about all I have to say that wasn't in my original review.
It's still pretty boring, and there's still way too much insistence on sharing. Literally all the way through until the end of the game.

I guess as a final note, I'd just have to say... "Aiiiiiiiii!"
No, but seriously. Where is the dev from that he thinks that's what a scream sounds like? Maybe a Latin country? English being a second language would explain some of the grammatical errors and weird phrases.
Anyway, I'm done with this game. Sunshine Love (same dev) was way better, and if my review turned you off of this game, I would suggest playing that instead. Or even if you still intend to play this.

This game is one that’ll likely be more appreciated by those who followed its development closely rather than newcomers picking it up post-release. It’s packed with a lot of content, but that also means it can feel a bit repetitive at times. The repetitiveness is less noticeable if you play it sporadically, rather than powering through it all at once.

I enjoyed the story, the characters, and the scenes overall, though there were some moments that felt a bit overstuffed with elements that didn’t feel particularly necessary or connected to the main experience.

That being said, if you’re into the family dynamic theme, this game really stands out—it’s hard to find anything better in that niche. You can tell it was a long labor of love, and for the most part, it achieves what it set out to do. It might not be one of the all-time greats, but it’s definitely a solid game.

I would have said this was a normal father/daughter incest story but its just not, it makes use of all cliché things from every other game out there, like training the girl in romance or should say how to be a good girlfrend because thats the normal thing to do for a dad after hes daughter has been back for a few days right...lol, then theres MC questioning him self and so on, this game just does everthing a million times slower then all other games of this type combined, i normaly dont mind a good slow burn but this could have been cut down to half and it would still be a slow burn.

The pure number of times you have to kiss, touch boobs in this game is so bad that its worse then the worst sandbox grind...it gets so repetetive that you wouldent belive it, its ok the first few times buy after the 5th million its just not and it you never freaking progress, like do this 500 times, hug, then 500 kisses, 500 touch boobs then 500 pinch nipple....its crazy.....

Another cliché is the shy daughter and her having an smol whore like best friend, its just so meh and seen to many times like everything else, game also tries to make you feel bad for the whore type girl in a wierd attempt to make you go for her as well, thing is if you arent into the whore type, nothing will change that.

Game is only a single LI game with a few optional side charecters, so if you dont really like the daughter your pretty much fucked since if you dont progress with her its game-over and found her very hard to like, not only am i board with the big tit fetish crap but it also kills her looks since her tits just dosent fit her body type and its yet another game that highlights big tits, so i feel more sorry for her then i find her hot, i mean i could deal with that if story was well written with some good dialogs but its just not and as chapters progress the story feels even more bland and boring.

Then theres this hole kinetic novel feeling, you dont controle fuck all, you might be given 3 or 4 choices, but you cant even deside what order to do them in, so you cant even skip the ones you just dont care about or find boring, gotta click em all before going forward......it can barely be called a game at this point.

If theres another think i dont like in games its the idiotic game-over choices, theres just absolutly no point in having them, they arent fun just purely annoyinig and will never understand why devs put that shit in games...

Game also likes to show you all kind of shit you dont ask for, like lesbian shit even though you have tried to stop it earliere in game, then game just starts giving you single choices to force it on you, really not a fan and to make it even worse one of the girls thinks "should i stop" "no i got to do this to have a chance to be with MC" i mean are you fucking kidding me? why the fuck would doing lesbian shit help her in any fucking way with the MC thats beyound stupid.

This is not just a poor porn game its bad in every way, story, grind which is unreal in a game not a sandbox....lack of sex scenes, forced lesbians, none of the girls has an IQ over 10....

And to people not into lesbian stuff, if you pick anymore girls then the daughter you will be forced to see daughter doing lesbian shit with the other girl you picked, this is not a choice.

Yeah ill stop i think you get the idea by now.....

It's boring and drawn out. 90% of the text can be scrolled. Instead of an interesting story, the game has tons of stupid and useless thoughts and conversations that you have to scroll through, thereby missing out on important things.

Very excellent game. The people behind making the game did a good job at drawing the player into the storyline to the point that they actually cared what happens to the characters. I constantly found myself feeling guilty for being with anybody other than the daughter or the daughter and Georgina and nobody else. Georgina really deserved somebody devoted just to her and daughter definitely deserves somebody devoted only to her as well. This is definitely a five-star game even though I only gave it four stars. The only reason it got four stars is it I constantly had to be aggravated shutting on and off relationships just to see scenes and having to replay things over and over to make it how I thought I wanted the game to go. So many times I thought one relationship was a good idea only to end up regretting it and having to go back and redoing it. I hated constantly having to cheat with the relationships being turned on and off otherwise it would have got five stars. By the time chapters 3 and 4 come along, all the ifs ands and buts got so confusing as to what exactly was needed to get a certain outcome that it just aggravated the shit out of me. There was no reason that it had to be that complicated or required to make so many sacrifices with relationships. Could have also used a bigger ratio of sex scenes considering the amount of clicking and story reading you had to do

In my opinion one of the best games released in years, many hours of gameplay, satisfies many different ways to play, from harem to ntr to the perfect love story, the graphics have improved over time, in the latest chapter they also added audio.

Its a classic of the genre. It's not doing anything too crazy, but is good at the basics.

I enjoyed the slow burn, it got a little slow at parts but was able to keep my attention.

Daughter is very attractive, I enjoyed the scenes and renders.

Its a very vanilla VN though, with a few choices of different routes.

The dialogue can for sure be sub-par, but that not why we are playing this.

Overall a very solid game and a classic.

Fantastic game.... if so like such themes plenty of sex scenees, beautfule girl with many site of woman beauti. nice MC and story. quite long but worth of pay atention. within first chapters some choices to made.

this game was so cool at first then it turned into some stupid family drama and too much first world problems. and the text!! 10 hours of text 1 hour of sex. seriously don't bother with this shit. Also how many timed do you need to have sex with D? it was fun at first but by chapter 3 I just skip all of her solo scenes they are too repetitive.

Just about done with part 2 of 4, and after my latest hour I had to post my thoughts on the game.

+ Good models with varied body types
+ Decent-to-good renders, for when the game was made
+ Fun premise of corrupting your daughter via friend/love and it's progression
+ Side characters were a nice touch to detract from the story (more on this below)

-- One of the "clickiest" stories I've played. It's a SLOW burn, with thousands of lines of text per chapter. Two minuses for this alone, as we have to read not only what they say, but ALL of their thoughts surrounding it.
-- The main love interest (your daughter) is so unbelievably repressed and hesitant about ANYTHING having to do with sex, it actually is a major turn off after a while. Halfway through the game and she's barely up to oral (just happened for the first time). Also two minuses for this - she shouldn't be this bad no matter what - relationship to her father nonwithstanding. She's madly in love with him, and it's just unrealistic.
----- Some of the DUMBEST characters in any AVN I've ever played. The choices they make are outstandingly stupid, reckless, and just oblivious to everything around them. I won't spoil any plot, but in chapter 2 where they are trying hard not to be seen publicly, they run around town like teenagers in love, ignoring everything including what they SHOULD be doing for the plot. Because literally no one other than a sub-90 IQ human would be doing what these characters are doing, it gets a full five minuses for this alone.

Normally if all of those minuses hadn't been there, I'd have given the game a 4.3-4.6 rating, as the rest of it is an enjoyable experience (despite some janky animations which are excusable due to the game's age). But good god, the stupidity on display coupled with just how repressed the daughter is.. it's just too much of a letdown and drags the entire experience with it. Ends up a 3.0 as a result.

I'd make other suggestions for the dev on how to improve it, but since it's been done for a while now it's a moot point. If you decide to play it, beware that you could probably write a graduate dissertation in the same time it takes to play all four chapters, and you'd probably get in more wanks with the dissertation as a result.

tldr; decent, but too many negatives drag what could have been a stellar experience down.

Edit: Updating my review to drop the score from 3 stars down to 2. The MC's daughter (main love interest) gets dumber the more the game continues. Near the end of chapter 3, she's about the equivalent of a monkey with a concussion. Forrest Gump would appear to be the sharper if they were put side-by-side. From that perspective, go into the game looking to skip all of the story and text, and just focus on the sex bits - the rest of it isn't worthwhile.

Edit 2: Further dropping my 2-star review down to 1-star, due to inconsistencies in the story that just get worse over time. Game isn't worth playing at this rate.

Edit 3: Finished the game. Chapter 4 is fuck-all bad. The story is just so predictably lame and cheesy, with everyone doing the worst possible thing at the worst possible moment. It's just unbelievably bad. Do yourself a favor and avoid this game like the plague, unless you use CTRL to skip the story entirely.

Generic characters, weak writing. Tedious gameplay and even though there are choices, the game feels linear. The generic porn actress looks of the daughter mixed with the sluty makeup is horrible. The AVN plot is boring and predictable.
