I've started this game for both sides (Dad and Son), and did not manage to properly read through neither of those. At some point I was just spamming enter or LMB to just proceed further and see what's there in the end (nothing).
What's good?
- models.
- some scenes (if you are lucky to encounter any).
- setting as is and (still) a huge room for improvement.
Disappointments:
- Slow burn beyond any reasonable limits. If you are looking for some good actions and sexual intercourses, this game is not about it. You will fall asleep before you see at least a nude pair of tits or a naked ass.
- Literally walls of text you cannot even skip. It's not a bad thing itself, but literally hours of endless reading between something relatively close to sex scenes, in a porn VN? Lmao.
- For the game which is strongly biased to plot and drama, dialogues and progression are ridiculously lame. Scenes end selves at some random point, characters speak to you about things you did not actually do (like they were meant as a reference to some missed scene), there is no common sense in how affection meter moves forward (I mean, some scenes should be boosting it but they do not, and vice versa).
this results in what happened to me several times I tried to play this - at some point you just lose the grasp of what's going on in the game, as plot twists to the state of random episodes very remotedly connected to each other.
- From the affection bar filling trials I can tell the bitter truth - you either go for a designated end and see almost no sex scenes, or go for sex scenes, but completely ruin and twist the plot. Which means the VN can be either a sequence of random sex scenes with plot and affection completely ruined and not important, and nothing in the end, or a long, steadily annoying, unskippable reading with almost no action, and yes - nothing in the end! Reminds me of Freeloading family a little, they have that 26th update which ruined all the hard successful previous work, except this game is different to the worse - it does not really have much to be ruined, but still dissolves even that tiny trace of excitement you might be having from all those seldom, often pretty half-assed intimate actions.
I do not say this VN is beyond fixing, but it needs a truly grand polishing and remodelling to become seriously appealing. As it is now, the game has a really great potential, but without it being properly arranged the game is very inconsistent and poorly tuned.
Idk, maybe I'll try it one prolly last time after some updates or it being finished eventually, for now, I think I will find more gameplay-balanced and entertaining ones.
Cannot recomment it to anyone at the current state it is now, unless you like reading some random porn-related stories...
Marked with 2 stars for really nice models, good animations (they are present, just very rare to encounter) and author actually trying to make this game work. Too bad his trying was absolutely not enough to make a good use of the great potential the game still has. Good luck to him to rething and remake (or not).
