The only thing I like is suspenseful detective music background. Voted 4/5 bc missing lots of replay screens

That's why I used Lain's Mod for this game. I believe it adds in most of the gallery replay scenes

They say a classic has a timeless quality to it. In my opinion, this game holds up in 2023.
People recommended this game and the score set expectations. While not perfect, this game does build a world, offer fantasies and engages the player in its story. Most AVN's never get there.
Story wise this game made me feel. I felt agitated, angry, saddened, surprised - but most of the time I felt curious and horny. Provided you take the time to sit with it, this game will take you places and make you feel things. The only thing is - the bad guys aren’t really fleshed out that well.
The beginning made zero sense to me, but you play a detective trying to figure out what happened to one of your clients. Crazy things happen as coverups become apparent and your snooping has its toll. The game does not shy away from pain, gore and suffering - which definitely helps ground the realism of the game in sometimes unrealistic settings.
The game is quite long with many paths to pick that don't always make sense. A 'points' counter has been added to let you understand how you are faring with a LI. But often times, it's quite a chore getting to the special moments. Not to mention the non-canonical ones. I’d recommend a walkthrough to find you all the sweet scenes for a second playthrough - go with your gut feeling on the first one.
Graphics depend on the beholder. Personally I liked the art style, the fidelity of the characters and the way scenes are shot. Dev has an eye for cinematic shots and goes out of his way to create some interesting perspectives. At times, things get really visceral - gore and body fluids - but I felt it all supported the story being told. Renders seemed great to me, animations were a couple frames long. Not buttery smooth, but I didn’t care for animations.
Most of the characters have their own quirks and there are a lot of intimate / sex scenes. Some might say a little too much, as it can hinder the story from progressing. There’s some serious moral stuff going on, although it never fully goes alpha dominant (apart from that one photo.. you’ll see it). Judy is basically forced on you story-wise which can throw some people off, but for the most part you get to handpick your experience - and the choices do matter as I’ve come to find out. And yes, Carli is top wife for me as well.
Should you play this? Yes. There’s a lot to take in: you get to be a detective, fuck multiple women, maybe fall in love, be chased by villains and potentially NTR a guy for life. It’s a rollercoaster, but one I wouldn’t want you to miss.
9/10 because of the minor points and the backtracking - but this is still gold in 2023. 10/10 if you like hot stepdaughters to corrupt.
Point of thought
Max died having an erection after his mother found out he was gawking over her tits. And the woman decided to give him a show right there before fate happened. He had just successfully corrupted her... Such a damn waste of a good sub-AVN!

Played again this game after like 4 years (last time played it when it was finished) and it is still one of the most amazing games. Girls, story, animations, renders, everything in general is on such a high quality level, much better then even most games that are coming out nowdays.
Also City of Broken Dreamers from same developer is another great game, anyone who liked this one i highly recommend giving that one a try too, just astonishing games.
Awesome job PhillyGames, you deserve all the love.
