OVERALL : Incredible Sandbox, but This game has the Potential to be Best Game if it's remade as a Visual Novel with a much bigger Story. The Art is Absolutely Gorgeous. Every Female Characters are Very Lovable & Beautiful.
I also Prefer Smaller and Frequent Updates in Every Month than Large Sized Updates Every Year and maybe forgotten by DEVs.

Story 2/5
Not sure how this ever got so high a rateing when the game has 0 content as in sex, its 100% blueballs so i truely dont understand it....

Story isent that great but its ok and i kinda liked some of the build up you do with LIs, i was mostly into tiffany and Angie but couldent really care less about the rest but thats fine as well aslong as there is something for everyones taste game will have potential.

It is to much of a slowburn though and considering it has no real sexual content its just not worth wasting your time on this one, its also has the Abandoned tag now so odds are it will never have any sex scenes now or ever get finished.

Girls 4/5
I liked the girls and the diversity in builds.

Animations ?/5
Well there arent any sex scenes so cant really rate this, it does have some picture to picture stuff which i wouldent call animations so for now its a 1 at best.

Music 0/5
Silent game which will always be more boring.

Sandbox 2/5
Its nots a bad sandbox and hint system kinda works even though some quests are tied into one another so it might tell you to do or go somewhere and nothing happens since you havent progressed enough with another LI, never been a fan of diffrent LIs questlines being tied together since it removes the choice to now follow someone you might not like.

Being abandoned and having 0 sex scenes after 4 years it really souldent have a higher rating then 1, it could change if the game ever got going again and got some real content but right now skip this one.

I played it because of June, but the sandbox mode really wasted a lot of my time, and the progress of the story was very slow. They were just teasers. The hottest ones were only when June was sleeping with Ruca. It's just oral sex and breast touching, that's all. When I was watching a movie with JUNE, I thought I could have a chance to have oral sex and tit sex, but it turned out that there was only a foot job. Although there was a cheating system, there was almost no sexual content. I am very disappointed because JUNE is the most unique and perfect template I have ever seen. It has never been used. I am very excited. Unfortunately, it has been abandoned. If you want to satisfy some teasing and fantasy friends, you can Try, but the chances of being disappointed are high.

I will keep my review short ... not only coz my english sucks .. there is nothing much to say about this game

Good:
- The Models

Bad:
- Basically everything else
- Story is told in 2 sentences
- Without the grind you could finish the game in ~30 minutes
- just teasing and blueballing >>> after 2 years of "development"<<<

As ex-patron — he's not worth donation.
Background images are stock renders, not handcraft.
Game update velocity is terrible. Artist isn't transparent on the reasons of it, unresponsive and unengaged.

Good parts are angles, and character models.
But you can get it all for free here and track the progression of the title to make sure he owes patrons much more material than he ever delivered.

The renders are very very good, they are way above average, also the girls all are quite beautiful, and they are unique, i dont think that i seen the assets that i been used on this girls on other games, (many times i can recognise the same hair, face) June its one of my favorite moms She is ridiculosly hot, absolutly love her looks
Really like the messaging system the game have where you can talk to the characters, of all the game that i played (over 40) its the best that i seen so far
The story so far its nothing out of the ordinary, but its okay, its not bad.
i think the games story progress its a good midle point, its not too slow, its not too fast, (i like slow burning game so for my taste i would like some thing to be slower, more teasing)
The biggest issue that i see in the game its that so far you choices dont have pretty much any consequence, i mean so far the MC can be a total creep and touch/molest (Just and example) June (the mom) and duing the event she can get afraid/angry and reject the MC, but next she is going to be talking to him like if nothing had hapen (even tho sometimes she says to the MC that they have to talk about that) she would call him sweety or would be all happy (basing my review on version 1.7) for example, when the MC its living with the Aunt, its quite clear how the daily interactions with her changes according to the relationship with the MC

Edit:
Meh. Fuck it. I don't care anymore.
It's a game. Character models look good. Sandbox is empty but it's still early dev I guess. Everything else is more or less average compared to half of the games on this site.

There are no sex scenes in this sex game. The most nudity that exists in this game is on the main menu.

There are about 30 or so different scenes and none of them involve actual sex, it's all varying degrees of foreplay. What's funny is that as this game has progressed through development, it's regressed on the content it provides. You start the game with the ability to get your dick sucked, and end it peeking up girl's skirts.

There's no guide to help you get through the experience, and the level of grind in this sandbox experience is mind numbing even on the easiest difficulty. Though there is an incel protagonist, who, when he's not cracking jokes, is perfecting his involuntary celibacy the entirety of this games run.

1/5. Terrible, hope to see... sex? In a sex game?

One of my favourite games of this site. The women are gorgeous, the situations in the game are super exciting and arousing. The game is still in development but you can still see some scenes.

Hope the final game has a lot of anal sex, and keeps being as invigorating as it is by the time I wrote this review. My hats off to the developer(s)

kinda feel like this should have been called 'The Blue Ball Special' a game with grind is one thing but after a while Everything is just bugged or simply fucked up. and having to SKIP through monotenous dialog for a tiny chance that something you did might have changed and you finally get lucky. i mean the dude is prevert in the classic sense. he's always horny and is turned on but all the same things that literally Everybody else is but he simply Can't control himself. but is that any reason to punish the players???
i would give it a better rating based on the chararcters and renders in the game. it does LOOK real good. but it seems to be made with cookie cutter content and even that was a lazy attempt. the grind is not actually hard at all but it is unrelentingly .... boring and unproductive. sad really. i got to the part where he should be going to school after moving into the new house but after a week of that, i think i would rather take a whale dick up the ass. and i REALLY would NOT like that but would like to have some good times with the maid, aunt ruca, charlee, 'landlady', hell anybody would have been good.
maybe they will have glory hole in shark week this year.

A lot of good things to say about this game. Models obviously look amazing and the dev really has a unique style which I appreciate. This game feels more modern than most with the dialogue social situations and texting style too

All the LI's have some great qualities about them and are all pretty hot, not too many sexy scenes involving the MC and them at the moment of reviewing this but when they do happen it's pretty well done.

The only thing I had to knock a point off for with this game is, well the plot and story seems to be a bit lacking. I feel like I know a lot about the characters individually but, when it comes to the MC there's kinda no direction or really any major points in plot. Still a good game overall though!

4 stars from me

The only real thing going for this game is the models are attractive.
The story is pretty non existent.
The game is set up as a sandbox, but there is very little to explore - the park only has 1 interaction, the store only has 2 interaction (and 1 of those is just to buy a hoodie), the gym only has 1 interaction (there are 4 different rooms you can click on, but only 1 has an interaction), the school has no real interactions (yet, there are 4 rooms you can click on - none of them do anything), the clothing store doesn't have any interactions until like the 10th game day and then it is a mini game, the back alley has no interactions.
This isn't really a sandbox, but it also isn't a VN. So what is it?
It's more or less a dating Sim - and when I say dating Sim I mean the MC is trying to build up affection, lust and fear points so that he can progress towards sexual content with his aunt, mom and sisters.

This game just has you repeating the same scenes over and over again. As your stats increase, the scenes progressively add more sexual content.
There is a walkthrough and cheat option to speed the grind along, but even that UI is kind of clunky.

As far as the progression of scenes - there really isn't that much content.
If you use the cheats to max out the Stat points needed for all the scene progressions, you can burn through everything in about an hour. The only thing that lengthens the time, is having to grind out days to get the clothing store to open and grind out more days until the MC mom and sisters to move into the new house.
This game has been available for a year and a half, so it's not like it's new.
In the games current state - most of the map is just one big placeholder for future content.
Why do it that way?
If there is no content at the school, then why not just had the school icon to the map when there is content at the school?
If there is no content in the yoga room, treadmill area or locker room at the gym - why not just add those rooms when there is content?
Why have the maid keep popping up all over the aunt's apartment and making her click able, when you can't interact with her? Same with the girl in the hoodie. Same with Jenny. Why have these women popping up all over the game and making them click able when you can't interact with any of them?

Since there is no real story, you aren't really invested in the characters and are just trying to progress to the sex scenes - and there is very little of that (well - no sex at all and very little sexual content).

For me - there just isn't enough to hold my interest to make me want to look for this game when updates come out. Hot models aren't enough, most of the games on this site have hot models.

The renders are great but the fact that most of the lewd content is in the forms of voyeurism, sleep "sex", and phone messages is absurd to me. It feels like there is no progress with characters or story happening. I don't like the June and Realtor story.

I'm surprised Ruca still has barely any content. It kind of feels like all the actual lewd stuff was skipped. Why can the mc spank and grope Ruca before even making out? Why are there sleeping BJs before actual blowjobs? The buildup is all out of wack.

I don't enjoy sandbox games but I can deal with them if they good content, at this point in my opinion the game doesn't have any. Cheats make this game far more bearable.

I find the UI to be completely passable (meaning I don't hate using it).

review based on 0.17b version
PRO:
- good cg
- good ui
- mc can be good or evil persona(different actions)
- good game mechanic
CONS:
- game have tag "animated", but in game r zero animations. if u nean cycled 2-3- then ok, but that looks like ****
- game have almost zero adult content, so game related tags tell us true here
- timesystem. we can see here again ugly construction with rotating/shifting array like .time_of_day=["Morning", "Afternoon", "Evening", "Night"] . its real madness... and its taken from another game.
- minor bugs like tonns of similar sms

in current stage its not real adult game, but damn good foundation to build good/great one.

Earlier in the life of this game, I would've given it a higher rating -- the models are cute, and some of the lewd scenes are kind of sexy, but the updates have never included much content or moved much of the story forward. It feels like the dev is milking the patrons at this point, making incremental progress while collecting their money.

I love the models and characters in this game! The rendors are great and the scenes are excellent.

I don't really care for the sandbox and the in game walkthrough. I wish there was a just VN version maybe or a way to see the walkthrough without going to the phone all the time. If there was a VN version, I think this one would be a 5 star and one of the best on this site.

Overall I enjoy the game, though, and I'm excited for updates and hopeful improvements to the game.

After that many updates, the game is still just a huge tease. The existing images and animations are good looking but you need to click so many choices for hours to see your first single handjob. And when you think you progressed enough and want to see some sex, you gets disappointed because the content ends.

ps.: Dont expect some updates for the existing content after a patch. New versions adds mostly new content / new girls instead of expand the existing paths.

Pros:
Renders
Characters

Cons:

Other than creeping on almost everyone in this game, what else is there to do? There's no real direction in this game and the lack of story mixed with the fact that this can be a grind fest like sandbox game doesn't make me wanna throw cash at it. I'll check back in a year, if it's still around but 3 stars is very reasonable.

Good & Bad

Let's start with good things 1st :

- Graphic is amazing best on this site
- 3D models are beautiful especially mom model
- animations are rather good (more like cartoon moving multiple images but it's ok considering that many games out there are 6 years old (like that liar ''Wife&Mother from Lust and Passion) who has none of moving or animated scenes
- Story is good not very or great but its ok

...

Now for the bad thing :

THE ONLY REASON I DID NOT GIVE 5 STARS ITS TERRIBLE WALKTHROUGH AND SEMI-GRIND.

If U not use Cheats and some of inside settings things, you have no clue where to go, what event or content or scene will come next and when, and what is more boring it is grinding to gain those lust love and perv points what I hate most in any other game.

Grinding in sexual and porn games = equal blue balls killer, boring shit and miss-direction losing focus and attention (unless if ppl are faggots and BiPolar so they dont care bout consistent routine)
