The game is great to put it simply, but... it does have a few issues.

A great example is the fact that the developer does to much, to little. What do I mean by that?

The developer presents to us the player a lot of girls which we are able to choose to bang or not, however, most girls have a very short appearance in the game.

- The fake mom for example, the MC bangs her all the time.
- The real mom, the MC bangs her all the time towards the end of the game.
- The sister, the MC bangs about three or four times towards the end of the game.
- The sisters girlfriend who wants to bang the MC since the start only gets to bang him once towards the end.
- The aunty, the MC bangs her about four maybe five times overall, mostly towards the end.
- The aunties daughter, the MC only bangs her once despite her being a pervert thanks to her mothers training.
- The MC's girlfriend, the MC only bangs her about three or four times, and she is his own girlfriend.
- The MC's girlfriend's mother, the MC bangs her three times.
- The extremely hot neighbor, the MC only bangs her twice despite him promising her that he will F her brains out.
- The school teacher, which the MC "can" by choice to choose to get involved or not, he blackmails her and has a great chance to make her a "sex slave" so to say. He doesn't.

The developer focused a lot on the mothers of the MC instead of allowing the player to choose who he/she wants to bang, and when. It's a linear story, and I get it, the developer wanted to tell his/her story this exact way, and fair enough.

But by adding to many girls, working hours upon hours to develop these characters, design them, present them, and so on, and then only giving them a short spotlight is unfair.


Another problematic issue I noticed about the game. The developer tends to use the "4 Months after" & "10 Days before" a lot. For example, the MC somehow, at some point in the story ends up in New York doing drugs, and his grandma comes to the rescue... How did this happen? When did he get there? Why is he doing drugs? How did his grandma know he was exactly at that specific place?

So many questions, and no answers all because the developer decided to use this wrong story telling step called time skipping by simply saying "7 Days later" too often.


Now, don't get me wrong. Family at Home is one of my favorite game genres, but I feel like the developer is starting to lose touch with his own creation.

I hope for him/her all the best, I hope we get more games from him/her in the future, and I can't wait for the Family at Home remastered. God speed to you developer, and stay strong and healthy!

It's good for what it is. It's a no-nonsense incest harem power fantasy.

Not much choices to be made, and the story is just barely there, but it is quite fappable for a certain demographic that enjoys dialogues like, "I'm your whore mother, please fuck my greedy pussy."

As someone who isn't keen on the lovey dovey incest styles and prefers a certain amount of power reversal, this game did hit those marks. As I said, the plot and characterizations are just enough to set the stage and narrative, but the main focus is on the MC going around banging all the thick chicks. While there are some twists and turns, the tone is such that you never worry that the MC might actually get put into a bind. Obstacles are raised and resolved promptly.

While the writing isn't anything too engaging, it also doesn't waste your time with worthless sandbox shit or gets bogged down by attempts to write at a higher level than what the dev is capable of. It's just a simple fap game, and it succeeds in that framework.

I like HS models, and the thick style is welcome, too. Sex scenes are long enough with varied positions and animations (some clipping, but not too distracting). Pregnant sex is always welcome in my book.

If you want heartfelt romance or deep characters with relatable dynamics, give it a pass. If you just want to see thick MILFs get boned while calling themselves whores, sluts, etc., give it a shot.

Went in lured by screenshots and milfs.
The game somehow manages to be glitchy and buggy on the renpy engine. The writing is a chore and thevisual quality is lacking, animation is alright but it's not worth the time.

Honestly just pass

A VN that is mostly on the kinetic side.
You can reject individual girls from the harem, and you choose whether to impregnate or not.
The main plot goes on autopilot without any choices.

The girls are extremely thick and sexy. Giant tits and asses. They tend to tower over most men in the game too which looks a bit odd since I don't get the feeling they were meant to be amazonian. I can't decide if this was meant to imply shota or not. As a few men are as big as them, but most men are not and are far shorter.

It is mostly a sex romp. The plot is a bit iffy and jumps the shark a couple of times.
The game leans heavily into its art assets. Which, while indeed sexy due to the massive titties and asses, look somewhat dated.
There are also tons of scene transition errors where the last stillshot will flash for a fraction of a second every time the animation progresses to the next step. Which is confusing and jarring to watch.

Overall I had fun and would recommend it.

One of the sexiest model design out there. I am looking for more content from this developer and hopefully more abuse control domination etc. I must repeat myself the momen here are absolutely super hot, slim thick, thick, sexy pretty tall beautiful etc!

Weird one.

+ Character models are great (though the tattoos are a bit much at times)
+ The *general premise* of the story is quite good
+ Uncensored

= Animation is hit or miss. Sometimes quite good sometimes terrible and there's a bunch of clipping issues with the models during animation.

- While the art itself is great, there are a LOT of of transitional issues where a random image will flash for like 1/4 second before going to the next image or animation. It's very unpleasant and jarring but I guess your brain kinda learns to ignore it after a while.
- While the general theme and direction of the writing is good, the finer details (like building up to an event or making the dialogue sound like something a real person would say) are sorely lacking and/or the translation is mediocre. Probably a bit of both.

If this was slightly better written and didn't have the graphical issues I could see it making my top 10 games, but as is probably about a 6.5/10. Didn't hate it. Could be done a lot better.

It's an ok game but i just have one complaint:

I think maybe the problem with most existing porn games is that the developers have most likely never had sex in their entire lives. I imagine if i were a 13 year old boy i would give this game a 5/5 rating.

Can't believe I was bamboozled to play this pile of garbage.
The story is written by a twelve year old and translated into english by someone with a below high school level of understanding of the language. The story has no cohesion, no logic or reason and characters that are borderline retarded. The sudden "twists" are of the cheap soap opera level and exist solely to waste time.
Art wise, it's not the worst usage of honey select I've seen, but it's definitely up there. Bad lighting, mediocre compositions, horribly proportioned models.
Do not waste your time with this.

the story is tremendous. the fact that MC has a Only complain is the fact that animated cutscenes are wonky. It jumps back and forth previous cutscenes. I wonder if that has anything todo with the fact that I downloaded the compressed version

Really enjoying the selection of woman and optional pregnacy. Scenes look good. Maybe a choice of options during sex could be added in the future. But other than that its a great game and the story isn't terrible. Bit og lag when opening the menu and some area's.

I don't think it will ever be a 5 star game. It's got some render positioning issues, the renders aren't the most up to date, although the models are all unique which is good. The plot isn't perfect, afaik you can't chose not to be incest (I don't hate it but not a fan and would have preferred a roommate/landlord option etc.), it's got a few weird moments, but overall it's a solid 4 star game that's continued to add content, been mostly bug free, does an amazing job with thicc thicc women you will fuck the pussies out of (if that's not your thing, why are you here given the preview pics?), has a TON of adult content, and now even has pregnancy content that while it's not all perfect (some of the render positioning and shaping) does have some real gems in it.

4 of 5 overall, don't see it going above that but can't imagine it would fall below this far in with all the great content it already has.

------------------------------
Avg: 3.86/10

I'll come out the gates swinging with, I don't like any of the VNs from this dev. Every one has terrible English, nonsensical story, and really, you'd might as well just use HS yourself. It's just a ton of sex scenes with next to no concrete story between them. But I will turn off my brain and dissect this as well as I can. Honestly, if you're reading a review to see if you'll enjoy the story, you won't. Turn on Skip Unseen Text, hold CTRL, and do what you gotta do. I'm one of the unfortunate masochists on this site that are looking for a good story to go along with my smut. One big thing that completely deters me is listening to a braindead MC think lines like "What I wouldn't give to fuck her right now." or "God she tastes so good." It gives me feelings akin to either "Haha look at me, I'm better than you" or your dad cheering you on during sex, and both of those are not good feelings for different reasons. And since MC in this throws hissy fits at the drop of a hat and is an absolute lemon, it reminds me of the former and I just go "Please shut up you entitled little shit."

Anyway, you start out with a trope I don't like of a love interest introducing you, the reader, to the story. Then MC talking to his diary like "Let me tell you what happened last week" And it was just him having sex with his mom. And my issue with this is he talked about it as if it was the first time, but the first thing she said was "I thought you'd be tired from doing this all day." Then after the unearned sex scene happenes, it flashes back AGAIN to how it started. MC acts like a little creep and assaults his mom in her sleep. So she rewards him with sex. Skip forward past about 5 more unearned sex scenes and MC is randomly stopped in a grocery store and told, "I'm someone you've never met, also I think I'm your father." So instead of getting all sides of the story, taking it in and processing, or thinking at all; MC runs home, pushes his dad on the ground, says "You're not my real parents" cries and runs to mr. big business. Then a THREE YEAR TIME SKIP barring you, the reader, from learning anything about anyone, to when he lives with his billionaire family in the smallest house ever going to community college. Then everything snowballs as MC's perversions get him involved in trite bullshit.

Things in this "story": Murder, corporate espionage, family drama, corrupt teachers, and giant cover ups. Things that matter in the story: literally nothing. Every single time there's a scene change, it feels like it has next to nothing to do with what was happening before. What doesn't help is the terrible translation, spelling mistakes, bad characters, and completely unlikeable MC. And once again, it's all just loose ideas to let MC stumble into a girl to have sex with in a depraved or scummy manner. It's pretty boring and unappealing if you ask me.

Like I said, bad English, UI and UX is pretty much standard Renpy, Just a couple fonts. The art is fine. I guess. All but two of the women have the same exact body type and it's all straight from HoneySelect. The story and dialogue are big nothing burgers so I don't like this.

TL;DR: Hold CTRL to get to a scene you like then repeat if that's all you need.

What better way to fuck 2 moms while they're pregnant in the next update. And please don't forget Granma, she's also incredibly charming. The sound effects part really excites me when playing the game. No more girl with tail and cat ears like in Family at home 1, I hate her. It sounds unbelievable but I hope this game can last forever.This game is awesome cause the theme of the game is really juicy and moody it really holds the vibe of really enjoying the game and also really liked that the android version is working efficiently. the story is intresting and the charecters are gorgeous.
i like pregnantsex !

As per episode 10

I played family at home 1, havent played lecuyer cult and i just foundout this one so i give it a shot, to sum it up im having a good time so i ll give it a 4* for now, the game focus so hard on incest and milf so if anyone into that, give this game a chance

Gotta say, comparing it to first title is such huge improvement, especially in arts. Second title arts is better, not the best around but its better, more attention paid to detail even tho some still off like an image of mc and hedy leaving hedy secret hideout. Image with house, mc, hedy and a car. Its like the components put into one without proper editing.

I would say the most similarities with the first title is the gap between each hot scene to another is very short, it doesnt take so long before mc took out his d and shoved it into LI, anyone who play avn solely for sex action would feel happy, but others who love to dig in into main story may not really. Id say theres more sex than story in this game, and im not complaining, this style and proportion has its own fans i believe, me included.

Story 6/10
Gotta give it this low cause like the proportion i mentioned before, theres more sex than story in this game. I feel some parts where main story kicked in couldve been made to be more meaningful, impactful and make sense, but many of it was rushed and cut short with some narration and forced to be made sense or even just skipped. Like, he is a hi schooler, but hes also ceo of big company that iirc control half of city?.. hmm.. ok.. he lived with his real fam for 3 years but when he get to his dad office his dad talk like its the first time mc there even tho mc been visiting quite often? The whole trip of mc going to US is to introduce character with stronger power than mc dad so the power pyramid top is now shift to mc grandma? The purpose of the trip wasnt even clear imo. His dad is power freak and his son is pretty much against him but he did nothing to control mc and let him roam free because..? He is his son that he just met 3 years ago? Him being power freak and his will to protect his throne, family name, dynasty, mustve been stronger than his love as father with him doesnt care of blackmailing/scapegoating his family. gotta say, some main story need to be polished. Thats unless some twist or unveiled plot planned ahead, so for now gotta give it 6 sorry.

Sex content 8/10
The sex content is rich for this point of development. I guess its the perk of focusing more on sex content, again im not complaining. Its always been ritual for me to check gallery before playing and it gave me (dirty) smile when i saw this game sex contents quantity. Clicking next page to see another next page button in replay gallery is like getting christmas gift, and if this title episode goes up to 2x like lecuyer cult, i would expect double the sex content or more, that will be dope!, and i would expect kinkier environment and situation, not only costume play. The gap between sex action also very short, its anti blueballing since most sex scene are full intercourse and only some are progressive style like hedy and neringa. There were even extras sex content that doesnt relate to main story like the employees and the plaque pregnant. All scenes also end with proper climax scene, thats one point for me since many avn sometime didnt show the blissful moment properly. Altho the sex scene could be better with some stalling, with raunchy narration, more pov of expression, and more variative and vulgar dirty talk. I also wish there are more character with progressive sex conquest like hedy, Neringa or Sara. Most LI are nymphos so i wish LIs that havent get sex with mc like Jana, Diana, the employees are progressive style, even tho the backstory of some of em is pretty much set stoned as nympho who will jump for full intercourse rightaway.

Sound 6/10
Kinda disappointed on this one. Early scene had voice but after that none. The voice was too low as well. The music of heated up moment seems to be miscategorized, i set music to very low but that bgm of heated moment is so loud which probably categorized as voice. Many scenes also muted, no music, no sfx, and that heated moment music is so random and short, i couldnt even predict when that samd music will pop up as i think the moment it attached to is rather miss. E.g the moment of mc breaching into his dad office would be good with some music and proper stalling, but iirc its muted. Maybe iys another downside on focusing more on sex scene. I hope this got improved in the future.

UI 6/10
The ui is clean, typical renpy ui, nothing special like extra ui element. I rarely give ui point low but i had unpleasant experience with this game. i gotta give it this low because the area of click of menu links are so small and unclear. Idk how dev develop this menu links/buttons but its definitely not link style but rather invisible box button behind and animated text on hover. It is so hard to click menu buttons freely. I need to hover very precise on some random unknown coordinate to trigger the button to work. This is really unpleasant experience so i hope dev fix this asap.

Overall, id say good game, i wish to see improvement in story and fix for the ui. The game could also make uses of some humour, whether in dialog or funny moments. I saw family at home 1 will get remake this year?. I hope dev finish this game first before jumping to another project. And personally i prefer family at home 3 than a remake, but yeah thats just me.

Thx for the games and good luck with the development.

A game that absolutely deserves 5 stars. Without a doubt, this is the best game I have ever played. I love the image of the female characters. I love how the MC fucks the women around him, especially the 2 mothers. Another great thing is when the MC fucks a pregnant woman, it's beyond my expectations. What better way to fuck 2 moms while they're pregnant in the next update. And please don't forget Granma, she's also incredibly charming. The sound effects part really excites me when playing the game. No more girl with tail and cat ears like in Family at home 1, I hate her. It sounds unbelievable but I hope this game can last forever.

The main con is that the story is on par with what you would find in most videos on pornhub. But it is well compensated with beautiful models, plentiful sexscenes, lack of stupid game mechanics and frequent updates.

All that make a good and reliable source of material for a quick wank as you wait another 4 months for your favourite "AAA" VN to get an update. Thus 4 stars

Its a visual novel power trip fuck everything type thing. No real choices at any point, no tracking and no game play. Dude with a horse dick, that gets anything and everything that crosses his path, with no real effort.

Visually, its OK the models look nice, but mostly the same. Nice attention to heels for a change with the honey select kinda images which usually suck at that.

Not mind bending, not engaging at all. Story is all over the place and doesn't really matter. You are not invested into any of the characters at all.

Its a visual run for a little while, a worthwhile look...once. Be nice if a story and choices were in there. Takes about ten seconds and your Mom is your personal cum dump, personal whore and kinda goes downhill from there.

Totally average to below average, download this when you are really bored and have time to kill. Doing so any other time and you will regret that you picked this instead of doing the dishes.

In the land of no underwear, the boy with a firehose for a d*ck is king. Little details like plot machinery are never going to stand in the way of an MC for whom no always means yes do it harder, and balloon-assed submissives whose only thought in their pretty heads is how to get their hands on that firehose. The no-hablo-ingles dialogue has been tidied and spiced up in later updates, renders are still rough and ready and choices are for wimps.

This game is exactly the same as the other works from this dev, so If you already played some of them, you already know what you gonna find. For those who don't, here comes my review.

PROS:
- The models are hot and the animations are acceptable, but this is actually ZERO effort from the dev and a total achievement of HS engine...
- Dev has put some effort with adding varied sound to some scenes.

CONS:
- The plot and dialogues are nefarious. Totally nonsensical scenes, conversations and character reactions. Two characters may have a life-changing confrontation, and the next scene they're totally cool. The story in general has the same coherence as a Teletubbies episode...
You may read some reviews saying, well, this is a porn game, don't expect reading the meaning of life. Well, If I eat at a McDonnald's I don't expect chef food, but neither a dog turd between two buns...

RESUME: If you just wanna fap, I don't recommend to play porn games, better just go watch porn. Also, in a KINETIC NOVEL the minimum expected is a GOOD story, because you have 0 extra work creating multiple plot lines, but It's not the case here. A recommendation to the dev, read MORE, you don't need to read Shakespeare or Lord Byron, just go read some good comic writers like Alan Moore or Neil Gaiman, and you're writing and building will already improve.

Game version: Episode 8

I like this game, so do I with the last game of this dev.
They are all simple "down for fcking" games and there is no illusion that these games want to be something else.
Looking for a good story? Move on.
Looking for free-roaming, important choices aso.? Move on.
Want decent renders with good animations and genetically gifted women? Try this one out, you won't regret it.

Game version: Episode 11
What started great and with loads of scenes with hot milfs just turned to sht in a few updates. One word: Pregnancy.
The MC's fcks every woman he meets from Episode 1 - 1x and NOTHING ever happened. Then, the dev obviously changed directions in a 180° and turned 2 of the main harem women pregnant.
I refuse to continue to play this game.

TL;DR: This game shows perfectly how to turn down a game from a 4-star rating to 2 or even less.
