Collection - Ren'Py - Discreen Vision Game Collection [Ch. 3 Day 25 v1.1] [Discreen Vision]

I initially gave this game 3/5-average. As I played it I kept dropping stars. why?

Let's see. First is the insane level of fetching quests. The dog needs feeding? Oh you have to talk to the bitch about it first. She'll call you names and finally give you some money and some more names. You go get dog food-oh no where is the can opener? Go talk to the bitch again and get called some more names. Finally you find the can opener but it breaks! oh no go talk to the bitch again and get called some more names....then you go to the store (again) and finally get home and feed the dog.

Every fucking quest is similar. The one constant is you have to keep talking to the bitch so she can call you a retard or some other name.

I get it the dev is pathetic loser simp who wants to be belittled. Well let's indulge his fetish for him.

The art is pretty good but so far all I've seen are endless quests. The little action I did see was,

A) the bitchy grandma (surprise) develops a thing for my fat little asian friend. It's early so I don't know if this becomes a thing later and based on what I have seen it will.

B)I had some dumb quest to find some handicapped dude which leads me to a strip club. This stripper who I can only assume is one of the LIs is tasked with asking around, This she does while fucking some black dude....
If she isn't an Li then this would really fall under voyeurism but if she is an LI it's really just some form of NTR since the shrimpy little MC is hiding under the seat while she gets fucked. I couldn't be bothered to find out.

I guess the game is really about humiliation. The other characters talk to your character like a retard the whole time. The only action seems to be other characters getting theirs while your shrimpy little moron MC hides.
The MC does jump the landlady out of nowhere sometimes and grope but he gets beat for doing it.

Don't waste your time. The game is lucky to get one star for the art and the rest is NTR-lite for simps and a time waster for morons with just enough brains to qualify as stupid.

Yes, yes! Style and animations, especially Debra, can't get enough of her! And i don't mind the grind, but god forbid you will miss a click - story is stuck! And the disappearing exit arrows, frustrating, yes, but that's how good Debra is! She's an ultimate mom without the "mom" stuff. I mean, she's giving a lot of shit to the MC, but he's depicted as an idiot, so i don't blame her much.
So, in the end of the day, even if you're an "incest" maniac like i am and here is no incest per se, must play! Believe me, Debra is worth it!

The Secret of the House [Ch. 3 Day 25 v1.1]

First of all, I have to say that I’m a big fan of Inusen’s art. I love the way he draws voluptuous MILFs, and the sex scenes in the game are absolutely hot.
Inusen was also the artist for the unfortunately abandoned game Milftoon Drama.

The Secret of the House plays almost identically to Milftoon Drama, unfortunately with the same weaknesses. Without a walkthrough, the game is almost unplayable—unless you have endless amounts of time to try everything possible. The quest design is often illogical, and the in-game help in the form of the journal is only truly useful during the first six days of the game. After that, it becomes increasingly incomplete and full of gaps. Progressing efficiently and purposefully in the game pretty much requires the use of a walkthrough.

The next point of criticism is the cumbersome navigation. While you gradually become familiar with the locations and more buildings are unlocked on the map as the game progresses, it still takes a while to get your bearings. Navigation inside houses is also quite cumbersome. Shortcuts would have been useful here—allowing you to jump with a single click to, for example, the garden, kitchen, bathroom, living room, or bedroom, as is the case in similar games—instead of having to navigate through the houses step by step.

Another drawback is the sometimes poor English translation of the game. Typos and awkward phrasing occur regularly. It’s obvious that the developers are not native English speakers. (The devs seem to be Hungarian, judging by the currency used in the game.) In times where good, free translation programs are available, this really shouldn’t be a problem to fix.
The game would also benefit from better overall dialogue writing and storytelling. Unfortunately, dialogues cannot be skipped.
Furthermore some NPC names are spelled differently — for example, Lisa/Liza, Anika/Anicka, Est(h)er/Eszter, and so on. This should have been cleaned up to ensure consistent (less confusing) spelling throughout.

The NTR scenes in the game—where love interests are involved with characters other than the main character—are also not everyone’s cup of tea (e.g., Anika and Fodo). In my opinion, the NTR tag is missing here, even though one could argue that Anika is not a love interest of the MC and that NTR is not the main focus of the game. On the other hand, unlike Anika, Liza is indeed a love interest of the MC, and right in the first chapter the player is hit with an NTR scene where another character climaxes inside Liza in the nightclub. As long such scenes aren't avoidable an NTR warning is recommended in my book.

The absolute strength of the game clearly lies in Inusen’s art. The sex scenes are animated and creatively varied. I can understand why some players might give the game a fair 3-star rating due to its shortcomings. However, I personally value the art style so highly that I’m willing to overlook many of its weaknesses. If the gameplay were improved, I’d gladly raise my rating to 4 stars.

As people have said, animations are top notch

In-game walkthrough kinda sucks with updates, I have no idea where I was in the walkthrough at the end of last patch. Some sort of "you are here" continual would be nice

Major negative is no skip. C'mon. This is Ren'Py. Quality of life. Why the F**K do I have to watch EVERYTHING without the ability to skip

EDIT: F*** Grandma. OK, if that's your thing, good for you. Won't yuck your yum. But for the rest of us, having scenes with imo disgusting old bitch required to progress, christ. Why.

Its story, visuals, everything is very appealing and beautiful, but figuring out what to do is a nightmare. Without a walkthrough, you’re 99% likely to get stuck. It’s truly one of the rare games I eagerly look forward to progressing in. There absolutely should be an in-game walkthrough.

An interesting story with good touches of humor, good character design, and quite interesting for the type of story. The story itself, between the protagonist and the other girls, is quite simple but entertaining. The animations, while simple, are fluid with certain details.
A new update has just been released, so we'll see. I recommend it to pass the time.

The Animators of this game are top tier and deserve more than what they are given.

The Story is not only interesting but there's freaking Pregnancy Content in this! THIS IS WHAT MOST PLAYERS WOULD WANT IN A GAME!

So I hope the Team making this game makes it to the end of the story,.

Solid art, nice gameplay and really good sex scenes. The story is not very streamlined but it's understandable as it's a porn game and the story has to be setup in a way. But overall I always keep a lookout for this dev's art which is really amazing.

So, this game has a lot of cool visuals and the women are top notch, but the writing was obviously not in English (Hungarian I think) so the translations hurt my brain, they look like they were typed by someone who really didn't understand english at all.
There are some nice puzzles to work out, but there are a LOT of bugs in this game and without the Walkthroughs I think everyone will find this a very difficult game to follow.

An excellent game in every aspect, I just wish more developers would make games like this. The story, gameplay, graphics offer very different things unlike other games I've played on this site. Devs like this need more support.

game has great art, but the gameplay is terrible, real time wait tasks, external walkthrough required, bugs, etc. Fix the bugs, remove the time bars, improve in game walkthrough, or better yet VN MODE. take advantage of the great art with no BS

English is bad gameplay is worse.

The artwork is absolutely stellar, but unless you're watching some kind of walkthrough on youtube, you won't get very far. You have to click and go through the motions even if you see the items you need or know.

There's plenty of fapping material but damn does it take forever to get to that point.

The art is absolutely fantastic. Truly some of the best illustrative work I've ever seen. The story is fun and entertaining. But the gameplay. OH MY GOD, THE GAMEPLAY. This is easily the worst VN I've ever experienced because of gameplay alone. The mind numbing bad checklist tasks are so excruciating I actually considered it a form of psychological torture. I gave up the moment I had to build and dismantle a coffee maker 7 times. That was it. No more. Couldn't do it after that. I don't care if the task become easier. I don't care if the illustration work is the best I've ever seen in a VN. That alone defeated me and it was only day 3. The fact that you have make a sandwich, do laundry, pick up milk and do the most monotonic crap I've ever had to do for a game tells me the dev spent too much time on making those tasks rather than focusing on a great story. And here's the thing. I may be wrong. I may be so far off I'm taking a piss. But ... I'll never know because I couldn't get past how excruciating the gameplay was.

This is exceedingly depressing to say. Because I'm not kidding when I say that everything else about this VN is a 5/5. Not joke. Humor is on point. Models are absolutely perfect. And this ran, so far, flawlessly. It's absolutely a breath of fresh air for a VN to look this good. It literally looks like a Disney animator took up the task to make an Adult VN. It's so good I have only one note ... get rid of all of the gameplay, make this a normal VN with choices driven dialogue and story. Do this and this will be pure gold, I kid you not.

But this is clearly not for me. If you enjoy this game DO NOT let me sway you. Write your own review. Tell the dev what you love about it and what you'd change. And above all, contribute. Show the dev some love and give them some cash. Whether it's here and there or consistent. Keep in mind these devs allow us to download these titles for free and if you love this title giving a little back is the least you could do. I genuinely hope the dev finds or has found their audience and I wish them the best. Excellent work on the art, genuinely.

Secret of the house is for me so far the best game of discreen vision, we miss some milftoon drama vibes here but the cast still good, if you do is full of surprises tho, i just love your work , keep up, wonderful job

it's very funny and hot game with a lot of scenes very cool and nice! Great chara design and nice story for this type of game! I liked a lot the point and click not very difficult but with a nice challenge to continue the story! I'm very excited about new update. I loved the style ^^

Ok, how do I put it? It's a frigging walking simulator. The gameplay is pure walking around and clicking all the places that you can, hopping to trigger something and finally advance the story. Tedious tasks that you have to by walking from A to B but it tells you to go back to A to get something and when you are back to B, it tells you to go back to A again and so on. Heck, there are tasks that actually require you to spend real time waiting for it to fill the bar to complete. The only good thing this pile of mess offers you is the art style but for the effort that the gameplay requires you to sacrifice is so unfulfilling. You are better just watching a video gameplay on some pornsite of someone else who actually bothered himself to finish game so you can enjoy the story (if there's any to begin with) and fast forward the grind in between.

Honestly between the characters moving (so you need to wait for them to be in an specific scenario) and losing your time waiting for a bar to fill, after some time I literally lost any desire to keep playing

I like some models of the game "The Secret of the House", but sometimes the draws are sloppy,.
The story is soooo bad if there is one.
The "developer" is scamming the patreon subscribers so much with each delayed release.
I was banned for no reason on the discord, and it's maybe a dictatorship on his discord.

Be careful !

Overrall a nice game, not much of this art style around which i very much like

The overall gameplay could be improved by adding a quest tracker and small hints because most of the game part of it doesnt make sense or is in general unintuitive


Edit: Holy shit update the game already

TL; DR
Just download this games' art and scenes and have some fun, as a game, TSOTH is one big smelly bull's shit.
