Ren'Py - Abandoned - Exchange Student [v0.7.2c] [LokiArt]

This was one of the first adult/porn games I've played when I started playing them. I loved the story with Lily, it's kinda innocent and romantic and it made me happy playing this, althought a bit sad that I reached a current end of version. And i'm super sad seeing an "Abandoned" tag right now when I just came to check if i could play more of a wholesome/romantic game, but still deserves a good rate imo.

It is a bit convoluted with the contents iirc, but it's enjoyable.

Love the style and the flow. Some butt plug content is interesting and other girls bring something interesting into the story. The way you influence others is fluid when keeping in mind the genre. It feels that neighbour girl is shy in a good way, so she will rarely try to experiment with toys or MC ( on the other hand there are some scenes where she takes initiative ). Game is still under development and I see great potential in it.

Version: 0.7.2c

Played the sandbox version because it has all the content. (Depending on path) But dont worry its a "mild" sandbox with only a few locations, a good inbuilt WT and u dont have to grind for stats or some BS.

The Good:
- The story makes scence (for this kind of games)
- The pace is good
- The models are nice.
- Animations are ok even if there are a few two pic "anims". But I think its from early stages of the game.
- Story is good on both routes from the landlady. (Yeah its the landlady, ur not related to)
- The wimps can avoid all content where the MC is not involved.^^

The Bad:
- No pubic hair. Only MC has some.
- If ur on the friendship route with the landlady the scenes with Bob are not animated. Big Bummer.

The "Ugly":
- Why always the "Truth or Dare"? But u can skip it after playing a bit. To watch it I got me the gallery mod.

Main story is good and the sidestories are also interessting.
A solid game with good amount of content. Was fun to play.
Waiting for the next update

I have already finished the game. The graphics are great, and the storyline is captivating. The corruption unfolds at the right pace, keeping my emotions and interest engaged. However, I do hope that the game will be developed faster as I completed it more than half a year ago, and new updates are imperceptible. Overall, it's the best game I have played so far

It's not the best game I've ever played, the sandbox mechanic in particular drove me away.

With that said I really like the story and the characters, they have good personalities and are physically attractive as well. That's all I can ask for when it comes to characters

v0.7.0.p3a - my actual rating would be about 4.2-4.5 stars as of this build.
I have really enjoyed this one. The characters are gorgeous and the story is decent. I do wish it wasn't quite so tedious with events on specific days and having to repeat/cycle through so much, but it's not nearly as bad as other sandbox games I've tried.

As far as general feedback...
I really hope there is a way to Harem it as the story progresses, but I'm sure that's no surprise.
I hope there is future content between MC and Katy/Hannah/lily, and a way to keep mom and lily both happy/together.
Hopefully it resolves so that MC can stick around after the semester ends
Definitely look forward to more interaction with MC's "employer" and the photographer as well.
I really like that the girls don't have fake oversized boobs, but we need more boob action in scenes. Stop neglecting the TaTas

Not bad... but not really that good, either. The models are hot and it's a unique enough premise/plot/set-up. However, I never got to any "action" as it seems to be kinda buggy. I thought I was doing the "classic VN" path or what the fuck ever and then it started acting like a sandbox game. I want to like it and see some more of Lily and Molly both. I hope I can update my review some day. Good luck.

Going with three stars on this one. The story has potential but seems like the payoff is hardly worth the grind. If there was more to it then maybe it would be worth the daily sandbox but as it stands and as it appears it will remain, not nearly enough. The developer has other games so maybe this is where they are spending their time on.

Not bad game with minimum grinding, but slowly corruption. Well done I guess. Good renders but I think the game lacks animations. That would be nice. Looking forward to see animations in the future updates.

The story has more grind than I'd prefer, but I like that the models are a little more like the average woman. Corruption feels a little slow to me, but does move forward a little at a time.

This has the potential to be really good if the dev stays true to the past approach. I'm looking forward to future updates.

Version Played: 0.6.3a

Time played: 3+ hours. Reached end of each LI's content. (Committed to several LI's routes, without going to back to check the others)

While the setting and execution are middling, I really like the characters. Each person seems to behave like they are a real human being with their own quirks and interests. Even though most of the girls show a clear attraction to MC, they don't fall onto his penis within seconds of meeting him. I also like that there isn't a grind -- just different choices for how you want the relationship with the girls to proceed. While most of the sexual content right now is limited to one character with some mild teasing with the others, it is very hot and effective.

Positives
+ Great cast of girls
+ Fun, easygoing setting
+ Clear direction on how to advance characters' stories
+ No grind

Negatives
- A bit run of the mill
- Not a ton of sexual content at this stage, but there is a fair amount of teasing and nudity
- English usage and overall writing could use some work (it's serviceable, but not going to impress you)

It's funny--I had made quite a bit of progress on this one and had basically forgotten it till I noticed the update.
Once I downloaded it and played it, the story and characters came back and I really enjoyed the new content.
I'm looking forward to what comes next and recommend the game if you like a little harem, a little corruption and some cute girls.

Note to Devs: See if you can find someone to help proofread and, ideally, punch up the writing. Overall, really fun game. Thank you!

I understand why this game gets hate. First, this game is a grind, and in case the devs are unaware, under no circumstance is grinding fun. Second, this game has a day/night system, and, again, under no circumstance is scouring rooms to find different scenes during different phases of the day fun. Third, and this is a weird one, the best scene in the game (spin-the-bottle) is RNG based. Like, why the hell would you design a scene such that you can miss so much quality content, which can be supplanted by interactions you've seen before?

With that said, the corruption of Lily is well done (although, it progresses a little too fast for my taste). And the character model of Lily couldn't be more perfect for the corruption genre (i.e., sweet, innocent, nerdy, naive). Also, just in general, the character models are hot and many of the scenes are well executed (although the writing for Molly could use a little work).

In summary, this game is poorly rated due to baffling decision making by the devs, but at it's core, there is a lot to like here. Also, to the devs credit, they have started to incorporate a typical VN format in their updates (although it doesn't contain all of the content). Hopefully the devs will realize the error of their ways, and stop going out of their way to make their game less enjoyable.

Well....As soon as I started playing, and especially after I saw the size of the MC's dick, I lost 30% of interest in the game.

What's more, the writing (besides misspellings and other errors as the dev is not a native English speaker) is very bad and boring that I skipped most part of the dialogues.
Due to that I couldn't feel any emotions or attachment to any of the characters and found the MC being a manipulative jerk trying to act mature at times but just looking at screwing as many girls as he can...sometimes even a bit forcefully or with stupid arguments.

Story is meh, nothing that make me want to come back and know more.

Still some bugs or images not appearing.

Renders are good though and the drinking game was fun even if it's a long run to try and see every outcome (I had to check the image folder and saw I missed quite few)

I really do like this game, but I think it should be less of a grind.

The MC attends university in a foreign country and, because their name is considered a female name [and bc this braintrust of a uni doesn't look at which box was checked under gender], he gets housed in a home with Molly and her daughter, a fellow student named Lilly. Wackiness ensues.

Lilly's best friend - a character that serves as a MacGuffin to move the plot along. She clearly wants to do very naughty things with straight-laced Lilly, but is using you to pervert Lilly so that, when the MC returns to their country, she can take advantage of all the sexy progress you had with Lilly. There is currently no sexual content with her.

The models are all quite attractive, though there are only a few of them. Sometimes I like that, as there is less confusion as to who the central figures of the story are supposed to be. I mean, we've all played games where the circle of available partners keeps expanding beyond incredulity.

The sexual progression seems perpetually in a holding pattern; this is due to an oversight to note when the player has achieved all of the progress/played all of the content that the game version has to offer. It doesn't help that the hint system is just poorly maintained [or a vestigial leftover from prior versions]. One of the reasons why people stop playing a game [and patreons drop off] is the perception that each version's development is so slight that firing up the game [and paying to support it] is hardly worth the effort. By not marking the version end of each character's story arc, this game is definitely running that risk.

Gameplay is very, very much a grind; most of my time playing, I end up doing the same thing every day, trying to vary something - ANYTHING - to see if any plot point shakes loose. And the story seems to keep changing. For example, an incident of public lewdness took place with Lilly that now seems to have vanished in the game. As well, the issues with Molly reinforce the idea that her seesaw interest in fooling around is designed more as a marketing tool than a plot device. Combined, these are potentially fatal problems for the game, and need to be addressed before the Grinding Boredom causes players to disengage.

This game is in desperate, DIRE need of a walkthrough. The dev keeps telling us that we are missing different paths that open up content, but then hides them within obscure choices that most players will not intuitively make. Without a walkthrough, the grind is not only within the game, but the grinding of one's teeth at how frustrating the dev is for not listening to his players.

As far as porn game goes, the grind is minimal. You are told very explicitly what to do to progress, and there aren't stats and what not to progress. There are also scenes to discover that aren't part of the main track, so it's worth exploring a bit, albeit there isn't much to explore.

In term of visual, it's pretty good. The animation are simple but well done. The people who did the CGs took some care.

The main flaw s are the pace and coherence. It's sometimes slow, sometimes too many things at once. Sometimes a character is down to fuck and the next moment it's like the first time you've just met. It's because of this that I am knocking off a star, but overall, good game.

For the first 20 minutes i thought this was the most boring game i played in a long time.

The mother who is 40 but it takes 1 year of development, or more to have sex with her, she behaves like a virgin teenager really.
The daughter who is 19 and behaves like a 12 year old, and of course hs has to be a virgin absoltely oblivious to sex, and you may only get her in the ass after patronizing her for a grindy amount of repeatables. This is the overall level of this VN.
I mean she is aboslutely oblivious but she promised her mother she would be a virgin until married, i wonder how that conversation went ITs quite fucking ridiculous the writing level. I guess some scenes with her mother cheking her hymen would be needed here...

After 2 ours of grinding i just decompyled RPA to chek the images,im close to the final events of the 2 mains, but when a girl in a game tells you " im not gonna lose my virginity untill i am married" you know this game is gonna die way before you see any marriage, so you will not fuck her. If you are not into anal, "screw you, tough luck." this game will not be for you.

The fact that you are told that its bad, but it is also a spoiler, that kills the anticipation. In one hand its good, that the game doesnt try to deceive you, on the other hand, expectations may be the only thing keeping you playin it such is my case, and this game its not particulary good, the good thing is this particular character and the corruption stuff, cause "sex" scenes are average.

After 18 nonths since the release, i wouldnt expect this game to get any better, actually i thought it was recent, until i checked the comments. Engrish still bad, some events in ADV mode will take ages to trigger and hint system is not helpin much.

Well thats it, im tired of this.

It started off with a decent premise then he half assed the whole dialogue and "story" is not even worth reading it got to the point that i just had to skip it, while still reading in between renders every once in a while, you also repeat the same actions everyday till u are into the dating status which by then, the game becomes readable again

Dont make me talk about the sandbox mode because it really is just pure dogshit thank god he added a vn mode

The only good thing about this game is the mom and your roomate which carry the whole game as just about 0.6.0

The rest of the characters are buttfuck ugly but that is not saying much because there is a total of 6 characters in the game overall (counting the mc and the black kid)

To your surprise it seems like the dev will be adding optional NTR for "variety purposes" he also said that harem will be an option.

Also im not trying to sound harsh in this review just a heads up for anyone willing to try this game

Expect alot of half assing whether by a complete desolate university or the typical outta nowhere black dude coming to cuck the mc for whatever reason

Game needs more content during the days so it's not "MC wakes up" "MC goes to school" "MC comes home" "MC has a short conversation with one of the girls" "MC goes to sleep" rinse and repeat, over and over. If you're going to repeat the same "MC goes to school, class" etc, just cut that shit out after the first couple times. We get the point. Literally, 90% of this game is filler text that is completely meaningless. I'm playing the VN mode because I'm not really interested in wandering around and peeping like a 10-year-old.

MC is a creepy little shit. "Oh she's sleeping, I guess I should grab her tit." The only thing stopping him from doing completely retarded stuff is "If she catches me I'll get kicked out." It's really hard to believe MC is supposed to be older than 12 with how he acts.

Good graphics but that's pretty much it.
As for gameplay it's a sandbox so what does one expect but rinse and repeat the same boring stuff again and again.
Characters are nothing you havn't seen before, typical repressed mother daughter combo.
Story is nothing original.

If it weren't a sandbox it could warrant 3 stars

Review of 0.5.1

The premise of the story is interesting. MC is an exchange student. Due to a mix-up because of MC's first name, he is thought to be a woman and housed with a family consisting of a very hot MILF in her late 30s and her cute 18-year-old daughter. The two female characters are repressed for various reasons and it's your job to get them to open up their minds and their legs.

Honestly, the characters are rather bland. There's no real conflict or stakes to drive the story along. Worse, it's repetitive. You wake up, go to university and come home and try to corrupt one of the two ladies in the house. On the weekends, you go to a beach house, lie in the sand, swim or walk with the mom or daughter, watch TV and try to have some fun with one of the ladies. Rinse and repeat.

The renders are above average as are the few simple animations. The female characters are varied and all are attractive. The mother character is beautiful...but looks too young to be in her late 30s if I'm being honest.

The dialogue goes from bland to melodramatic...nothing really compelling here as the main driver of the dialogue is for the MC to get laid.

Graphics - 8/10
Animations - 8/10
Story - 4/10
Characters - 5/10
Fun - 5/10
