VN - Ren'Py - Family Vacation [Ch.10 SE 21] [MCK]

Wholesome family fun in an art style I enjoy. The characters begin pretty corrupted already, nothing happens that is vastly out of character. No "I'm a loving parent that would never think of any sex other than missionary position with the lights off" and 5 minutes later, "I'm a raging slut who seduces my children and screws every guy that walks by."

Interesting in the beginning but at some point it becomes a bit boring, sorry dev, since there is no built up towards something and the scenes are quite lengthy without some anticipation or what, at least in my view. The dialogues are so and so and the cg's seems a bit old with all the new games out there

Family Vacation v.0.10 is a visual novel in Renpy made by MCK, a very german developer that makes sure a lot of germanic elements are inserted in his game. The game consists of a rich patriarch of a family that is very open to exploring their romantic liberties without any form of boundary. There are plenty of choices and paths to follow, locking some content depending on your choices and depending on romance, lust, and obedience points. The game is technically well made and polished, with more options than your average renpy novel ingame and in settings. Story-wise this game is very mediocre to a bad degree. The story is practically nonexistent and is there to justify the many romances the protagonist can have with every single character you encounter. That wouldn’t be a problem for anyone that cares only for the romance scenes, but the models in Family Vacation are all so ugly and weird. A common occurrence that I’ve found with german developed games is the obsession with very mature women and women with exaggerated jawlines, age lines, tattoos, piercings and a lot of bizarre content right out of the bat, with next to no built up. If you research german culture you will understand that when they party they go to the expreme, as if they are releasing all the tension built up during long periods of work. This game expresses this culture perfectly. Not only those strange excesses slap the player’s face every corner, the game is obsessed with cuckoldry, swinging, cheating and all the in between. Every other option faced is about another man getting into with the female characters or some form of exchange. If you are not into this kind of thing, you will miss a significant amount of content. Considering the quality of the scenes, models, story, and the progression, the key elements for a good visual novel, Family Vacation is not worthy of time despite the different options and the level of polishing.

This game has gotten very repetitive. Very little time is spent on more interesting love interests like that turkish girl. Don't like the fact we are stuck with the wife, who is a very annoying character and looks like a fossil. Last 4 chapters have been very repetitive and one of the girls looks underage. Writing is avg at best, game could be a lot more sand box.

I would like to rate it a 5/5 as the potential for incest (wife, grandma, daugher(s), son), beastality, swinger, group sex is huge -so I feel-, ... but not well executed at this point (Ch10].
The english is very simple and minimalistic, even for me as a non native english.
Beastality (can be avoided) is teased good but so many opportunitys to finaly explore and show are mist up to chapter 9!? Why not spy more with the CC?!
There is no descriptive writing for the lewd scenes and so the lewd scenes suffer a lot, as the potential of CGI is not used to benefit at least the visuals*!
The graphics are OK but there is no art style value added*.
The models are realistic without the tucked helium BOOBs that defy gravity and have no weight to it. Thats a positive here!
It has anoying generic music, so I turned it off as it also does not match the scenes.
No animations just some flipbook.

Hell I would like to see this piece get polished with a lewd visual art style (AI CG?), ramped up descriptive writing and writing in general.
The plot is realistic, nothing to mention but it is not in the way, so I bring it up. This VN your in for the kinks anyway.

I'll stick around a little longer to see where this is going as my kinky delights are so tickled.

Kinks: 5/5
Plot: 4/5
Graphics: 3/5
Writing: 2/5
Lewd: 2/5 (no descriptive writing)

The dev did many things right.
Story simple and to the point not some weird space, demon, save earth oddesy so convoluted its hard to keep up.
Few greats in the world of IC this one is up there. So for me Dating my daughter, timestamps, sisterly lust, desert stalker are all up there on the list.
One midlife crisis I am not a big milf fan and only warmed to the wife after the scene with the sister, and sisterly lust was not too in to the mother, and it stopped right as the girls were starting to include eachother.
Smart of the dev to introduce the wifes mom early and younger.
Not a big harem guy but the side conquests are decent for the family. Hoping that does not go to far afield. I am the dog stays behind closed doors. Really hots scenes in family. Not a big fan of calling family members sluts that just my small annoyance but when he has his daughter in the dungeon WOW I liked that one the most, though more mom & daughter please!
GREAT JOB!

So far its a pretty good start, it has a nice simple atmosphere with all the ground work for getting with each of the ladies all ready done so its straight into the action with little effort.

Personally i think this game would have been better without a MC, not because he is bad(quite the contrary) but because most people will treat this game as an NTR pit and avoid it, where as looking at it as a sims type game where you control the whole family and try to make the bast outcome for all is much better.

The characters are nice and realistic but the "mom" looks way older than the grandma.

Sex scenes are good and while there is not much in the way of kinks ready yet(as there is not too much story done) it does look to be setting up several to come.

Choices do make a difference especially in controlling who the MC gets with but again its still early so the long term effects don't get shown.

Defiantly a game to keep your eye on.

Story 3/5 (basic but plenty for the type of game)
Sex 4/5 (great)
Characters 3/5 (could be a little sexier)
Art 3/5 (a little above average)
Choices 4/5 (do make a difference so far)
Kinks 3/5 (a few and more being setup)

Consider me impressed.

There is consistently solid writing throughout the chapters. Certainly a lot of 'porn logic' at play, everyone is exceptionally horny all of the time. But hey, that's just what the game's going for, and it nails it.

Double check the tags to make sure the kinks are right for you. The game isn't afraid to get weird with it at times. Even if you always have a choice.

One more thing I'll note is that the character designs are really memorable. These aren't all the same copypaste 10/10 supermodels you can find in similar games. They're all attractive, but they're unique enough that they have actual character in their designs.

My only complaint is that it's over, and I'm just left waiting for more.

Very well written, great pacing (it starts off quite quickly, but develops nicely) and lots of fun scenarios and kinks.

My only complaint is some of the models for the girls look a little masculine, especially Franzi, and the grandmother looks as old as the mother/wife.

But these are minor, as the story and events keep you wanting more.

(Review for v0.8, updated for Ch. 9)

This game is a must for those into "fooling around" with family members. It supports a lot of different kinks, from bedding your mother-in-law (and having a daughter with her) to swinging and pursuing petite girls. There's also a transgender character around, and as of Ch. 9 some bestiality, which can be easily avoided if you pay attention to the warnings in case that's not your thing.

The only con worth mentioning is the fact that most "animations" in sex scenes consist of a cheap 2-frame loop and thus feel bland and kind of boring, besides being extra jerky at times. Other than that, the more the story progresses, the more interesting and spicy the situations get!

First off, I really enjoyed this game. There's a lot of kinks involved here, which makes sense because.....
This AVN is like every stereotype about what kinky freaks Germans are, come to life lol. Pretty out there stuff, but makes for an interesting game!
I am a big fan of the NTR stuff, and I am hopeful that the "Love/Lust" stats aren't just for show (I've been deliberately pissing the wife, daughter, and MIL off in my playthrough, hoping she snaps and starts slinging it around without the MC's permission). If you like games that aren't boring and vanilla, you'll enjoy this one!

Very kinky game. There are a lot of fetishes. The story is simple and easy to follow and the players has to choose only who to fuck.
I think is one of the best on the forum, because it goes staight to the point without beating around the bush with complicated plot or quest to persue.
Keep going and put some pregnancy within family too!
I give five star to encourage the development of this novel!

In a genre that is filled to the brim with basic 'You are man, these are women, you sex them good' with the exact same models, this game is such a breath of fresh air.

The models are well made, very much leaning into the ethnicity of the characters in question (German, and Turkish on occasion).

The writing is good enough that I don't feel a need to skip it.

The kinks are probably the closest to my own I've seen in a VN. Swinging is so rarely done well, either leaning too far into cuckoldry (oh joy another BNWO game) or it just feeling outright mean spirited. This game teeters the line of the joy of sex from a view that only a European could have.

Everything about this VN is average at best.

The models are meh, some less than that due to tattoos or body piercings. A little tat is okay, piercings less so. Also for some reason the MC's dick constantly looks like it's leaking mercury which is off putting.

The story line is passable, nothing ground breaking nor anything to become invested in. It's not the worst I've seen, it's just there. A couple times the dog get's brought up and I'm not sure what's going on there, I suspect I'm glad I don't. Every time it's brought up there are serious disturbing vibes that make me cringe.

The sex scenes are really bad to the point I considered 2 stars. First not having actual animation in 2024 isn't good. Even average ones are better than none. The scenes are also less than sexy.

The premise has potential but the execution just isn't there.

First off: I'm not an expert, a connoisseur of art and literature. I'm just a guy who likes porn games for what they are: porn.

I'll be honest, I treated this game like the others I play: Enable Skip, then slow down at the interesting parts, have fun, be done with it.
Then I realized what I'm playing is actually the type of game I've been missing for months! A game where there are other males, not just MC with his big dick. I know, many many people feel the opposite way about this, but I do welcome this change of pace. There is MC's friend in the prologue, MC's son, tennis teacher, dog, etc. And no, this is not NTR, no cucking. MC doesn't hold some kind of birthright to own every woman he lays his eyes on.
And there is so much content. There are no bad choices in the game. It's not always good to spy on someone or to go to a tennis practice. It's a choice, and if you choose differently next time, you'll see something else.

In short: I love this game, the story is nice, the dev made sure to have things and choices make sense. The characters look nice, there are multiple routes you can go on. It's a great game, even with it's flaws (which will be fixed after some proofreading.)

Very unique take on incest that I didn't see on any other game before and I like the dynamic between MC and his girls.

Pros:
Great character design
Good chunk of content with multiple paths

Things that i like to see improved :
English translation
Animations

Personal cons:
The dick piercing is weird and like others said it breaks immersion
Bestiality content seams not optional

My hope for this project is to succeed and for dev to improve thus the 5 stars can be revised later depending on how the game moves along.

What i like about this game:

• There are many characters with different looks and personalities
• It has multiple story strings and so far all of them are intruiging in their own way.
• The game takes a different approach than many incest games. The player character is not (or almost not) manipulating/corrupting the other characters of the game but rather are all/most love/sex interest characters sexually open in varying degrees. You as the player character don't have to initiate every relationship but are often approached by them. All this gives the game a very erotic vibe.
• So far there is no grinding for stats or money in the game

Stuff I don't like or that needs improvement:

• The spelling and grammar needs improvement. The writing itself is good but there are a few spelling and grammar mistakes which is understandable considering the developer is not a native speaker. But maybe there is a kind native speaker on here who will help.
• The MCs dick piercing: It's just immersion breakingly large in my opinion but that may as well be personal taste.
• The animations are rather clunky with very few frames. It would be nice if they were a little smoother and if that's not possible maybe no animations at all would be better.

It's a pretty good game that has a lot of potential. Good fap material and a lot of fun.
Positives:
- Good renders
- Lots of fetishes

Ok:
lots of paths (its both good and bad - too many to view so multiple paythroughs. :/)

Bad:
- Story is forgettable
- Contradictions galore (Gilf is suppose to be reserved then shows her puss lol)
- Everyone is into you all the time. Kinda takes away the fun of corrupting/romancing a character...

All in all potential for good... will see... for now 4 stars

All in All, there is promise to the game. There are some translation error here and there as well as some choppy-ness on the transitions, but nothing "game breaking".

One of the major concerns I have is the text coloring. Without a text box (I don't normally like them), it's VERY hard to read some times. The dark colors make it even harder. I think other reviewers have mentioned, but just coloring the Name would be fine with white text.

Ch.05 & 06

This is a wild one so far. If you are into swinging & incest then this is a good one for you.

I'm not in love with the looks of most of the models (except Franzi), but I still enjoy it.

The English needs a serious overhaul. I thought about undertaking it, but didn't feel like having to go through so many files to do it.

I enjoyed that the first release was all the way to chapter 6. Plenty of content to start.

Good luck dev and I'm looking forward to the coming releases.
