HTML - Family Ties [v0.1 Remake] [Selina Games]

Reviewed v0.1 remake.
Summary: Good with the possibility of becoming even better.
Note that it feels like it's very early in development, a lot remains to implement.

Pros:
- Good corruption and sharing story.
- Ambitious scope.
- Engaged developer.

Cons:
- Grindy, especially working at the café.
- Obviously using real porn sets some restrictions. The characters changes looks depending on the scene. Any kink that is to be implemented must be found irl with suitable images and videos which might prevent some more corrupted scenarios.
- Many things not yet implemented, and some that are implemented seems to have little effect, e.g, a lot of clothes to buy that as of yet has little perceived effect.
Try it out. Especially if you are into a couple that are into positive sharing and corruption.

v0.0.8

Due to the download size, I assumed there'd be a lot of content.

Instead, what I found is that there's a dozen scenes, each with a dozen different pictures/videos.

The variety of clips and pictures would be welcome if it wasn't for the fact that they're all random models that don't even remain consistent within a single scene: one screen you're blonde, the next one a brunette.

There is currently very little content: just scenes with the husband and the friend/brother/whatever - I don't even remember what he was supposed to be, and then a few from standalone repeatable scenes at a gloryhole, at school, and on tiktok.

None of them provide any meaningful development: the husband is pretty much asking to get cucked from the start, and then through a boring grind you end up becoming a whore without any development on the story, but simply due to farming corruption.

The grind is absurd, by the way. There's also other stats that don't seem to play much of a role: hygiene, fitness, tan... I think they affect beauty, which in turn doesn't seem to have any purpose.

The writing is average, and the English is terrible: "Have a sex" is the most prevalent example.

I didn't find any broken code, although it needs major polishing for sure: you can masturbate at the living room while both your husband and the other one are present, and none will mention a thing.

Some options may only work after following some specific links, but not others that are part of the same area/activity (eg; using the buttplug).

Money is meaningless: you earn enough in 2 weeks to buy everything you need, and whatever outfits you like. Might as well remove it and make you a trust fund millionaire from the start.

The corruption isn't really corruption: you just grind numbers and do things for reasons. And of course, it follows the dumb handjob > blowjob > vaginal > anal path that every other game that doesn't understand corruption follows.

The UI is nice, and there are some nice pics/videos, but then again, they're completely different actresses, so in the end this looks like a high quality porn gallery with extra steps, which already takes multiple GB of disk space while only having a couple of playable paths.

It's still a very early version, and it shows that work is being put into it, thus the 3 stars. However, there isn't much to see here right now.

Great game overall.
Cons : - The story is not new.
- The husband is too eager to make a whore out of his wife.
- Most locations are still empty.
Pros : - My favorite is the Holagram & Forfans. Although recently the number of followers you can gain has been too unrealistic, I mean +30m followers for a topless photo ...
- Lots of videos and gifs, related to the chosen sex position.
- The hotwife concept is really great.
- There are different branches and the story although not new, is believable and interesting to follow.
All in all, if you are ok with html games this is one of the better ones.

Author has great ideas and updates very frequently. Looking forward to how the story branches out! Game has a lot of potential and with consistent updates can become one of the best HTML games out there.

v 0.0.6 v 0.0.7

A game with a female protagonist, sandbox-style, but rather well designed.
The option of naming the actors (and specifying their relationship) is, for me, a major plus.
The menu allowing you to customize your experience is also a big plus.

Kudos for the option to choose your playback size for video files.

Perhaps it would be better if undeveloped locations weren't accessible in the menus (done as an option in 0.0.7), or to indicate which ones the story sends us to (asterisk or exclamation mark).

Even if the game is at an early stage of development (given all the possible future locations to explore), it's still fun to play at this stage.
Keep up the good work, I think we have a winner here.

It is highly recommended to read the changelogs, mainly the one for 0.0.6 to understand how to play the game.

Great game! good writing and one of the things i enjoyed more is how smoth everything work. Sometimes on this HTLM games, menus and navigation can get a little bit clunky, welp, is not the case here, the tip system is great, the phone works perfect and the game just runs and plays smothly. I hope to see more of the husband path that i imagine leans more towards the nts flavor.

Review is for 0.0.5
We got a really nice start, with some really good framework. It's just that there is way too much emptiness in the game right now.
It's your typical sandbox/cheating game and doesn't really add anything new to the genre, but it's one of those games that with a significant amount of updates, and a lot more content, we have a really good game here. I just hope it doesn't end like a lot of these games, where the grand vision the developer has doesn't overwhelm them and they end up dropping future development, or they just don't get the funds and lose interest.
tl;dr give the developer some time to get things more fleshed out before we determine exactly what this is going to evolve into

This is a massive 2GB download for an HTML game that feels insanely empty. It feels like all of the time "developing" this game went into finding a bunch of different images for repeatable events that then have a complete lack of any dialogue or any sort of engagement other than "Choose the position you wish to see an image of."


The sad thing is, the above could probably almost be a blessing as the english is... questionable at best. It leaves a lot of the dialogue feeling very weird for lack of a better word.

This has *MANY* locations to go to but all of it feels very empty as the day goes by insanely fast and doesn't feel developed in the slightest with most of the "content" following a very linear path that you just have to keep checking the "objectives" tab to see what you're actually suppose to do next.

Overall very disappointing and I could not find a single thing redeemable about this "game."

There's a lot of porn here, which will satisfy the casual fapper but other than that, this sandbox porn lacks direction.

The good: Lot's of porn clips

The bad: It lacks any narrative direction and the corruption that happens is incidental, not driven by any coherent story. This is a problem bc story matters to me.

At the beginning, the Female MC is reluctant to even have sex in the same house as the step-brother (relationship is changeable). But, during the first night of SB staying, the husband gets her somewhat tipsy and manages to have sex with her anyway.

The husband is a total douche and it would be fun cuckolding him if it weren't so damn easy to corrupt the Female MC. She can basically have sex anywhere in the house with her husband and without reservation. She can also watch and masturbate to porn in the living room in addition to gangbang porn right off the bat in both the living room and bedroom PC.

Though it's obvious the story is intended to drive her to have sex w/multiple partners, the only real challenge is how quickly can you get the needed corruption to do so. Furthermore, she can buy pretty slutty outfits early on in the game, buy butt plugs . . . literally anything she can afford. She doesn't really have to earn access to these things by actually becoming corrupt first. The outfits don't progress from conservative to slutty. You start out with a pretty revealing gym outfit in your closet, so I didn't really see the need to change those outfits, and if you wear sluttier outfits, no one really notices the difference.

Who knows maybe this will be changed over time, but the desire to become corrupt is just not there. At least not yet. It's only a slow burn in terms of other sex partners. So, if slow corruption that makes sense is what you want, you won't get it here. At least not yet.

I'll track this one in the hopes that changes. But, it looks like the Dev responded to the early middling to bad reviews about lack of content by packing it with lots of porn that has no direction.

Way too early for release. There is basically no content yet but the dev has put a lot of care into developing the world by creating dozen of empty locations. This only accentuates how bare the game still is. I think it has a lot of potential and the dev knows what their doing but it needs A LOT of work. probably worth checking out in 6-12 months

updated - The text is much better and the game has filled out into much more content. Changed rating to a 5 as prmoised. Is it perfect, no. But if you want a female protag hotwife story then that is what you will get. Good progression, clear hints to guide you, and as always the important part for a porn game..it's fappable. Try it out if you like female protag corruption games.

Gave it a 3 but honestly as stands it's barely worth playing. There is a lot that you want to be good here, but the english translation takes you out of most of it. It's not the worst, hell it's not even broken english. It's more like misarranged english. But it is enough to take you out of the scene and have you constantly playing a reverse game of madlibs.

Gameplay is your standard html game. Story seems fun and knows what fetish it wants to play to(hotwife with soft incest). All great starting points but crippled by the translation.

But again I gave it a 3 because if the transaltion is fixed there is a good solid game here that i'm excited to play once updated and comprehensible. Translations are tricky so no hate and all the luck. Hope to correct this rating to a 5 soon.

Very good start but very barebones in therms of content at the moment.

It has very good scenes to get started and they are also well written. The UI looks great and it has some sandbox mechanics as well.

I would keep an eye out for this one.
