Unity - Five of a Kind [v0.4.0.2] [JorogrArt]

A short summary (mild spoilers; WIP v0.4):

The pros:
+Hand-drawn character renders;
+SFX (in sexual content and non-sexual);
+Animations;
+Strong linear/sandbox progression hybrid;
+Mini-games/side quests to diversify the gameplay;
+Good character development;
+Developer that sincerely cares about the project/fan feedback;

The negatives:
-Limited love interests to pursue;
-A bit clunky use of walkthrough;

The final concluding score: 4/5. A must play for anyone who enjoys incest themed games. It's far from perfect, but hands down one of the best out there in existence (considering how often this genre turns into shovelware, that's a generous flattering). It's mesmerizing to me how a single, but a very dedicated dev can achieve some much without throwing in scams and blueballs in between. Although most updates take a while, the dev himself doesn't shy to inform people about changes/delays long before the update is released.

Good pacing. The puzzles aren't mind-wracking but aren't completely brainless and only occasionally end up being oblique; there were a couple of things I don't remember being hinted at well or at all, but it's possible I just missed it.

The art is a bit wonky in places but is generally good where it counts, and the animations are smooth. Definitely looking forward to more.

Really good Larry-like quest with pleasant atmosphere, a lot of 80th references and BOOBS! Just like in good old times! Rare beast here, indeed. Keep up the good work and please don't abandon it! Kudos!

This game has an excellent story and amazing art. The characters are well-developed and the plot is engaging. The artwork is beautiful. Overall, this is a great game that I would highly recommend to anyone. good luck the dev is worth supporting

This game just oozes flavour. It's a homage to the old point and click games of the 80s/90s. The humour is actually funny and the content gets better with each update.

If I was the dictator of Earth I'd throw anyone that doesn't give this 5 stars into the gulag.

This game still has room for improvement, obviously, as the game's still in early stages, but as of now it has managed to maintain a firm grasp on the plot, interactions and animation. The art style reminds me of a couple of other cool games I've played, and this one has not disappointed in any aspect so far. Eagerly anticipating the forthcoming expansion. Kudos to the developer for doing what he deems best and taking the time to listen to everyone's feedback despite what appears to be a busy schedule. Wishing all the best for this endeavour, as both my wife and I are enamoured with it! She definitely gets good giggles from certain scenes.

A good decent (porn) game, tbh... with a strong nut-draining power, iykwim.

But (until proven innocent) games with this particular style (yknow... the old SS storyline) usually drag their audiences/patrons into years (could be decades) of slow-n-small progress.

So it's just average. A very good average.

So, I'm not going to say that a porn game needs to be "made with love" to be a 5-star experience, but it definitely helps, and you can feel the homage here to games from the 80s and 90s, as the author readily admits.

And while that can be slightly frustrating (you can't do that right now, the character is going to walk from place to place within rooms, etc.), I think the feel helps with the game's charm.

I recognize that if you whipper-snappers never (had to) play those games to get your kicks, then the charm and nostalgia will probably fall flat and just be a bit frustrating, but c'est la vie.

This is one of those games that are just fun to play and actually not just skip through the text, as the characters are fun and well written.

While it is short and updates aren't huge, theres a decent amount of content and you really notice that this is a passion project.

Some of the art occasionally looks a bit weird (especially Merediths face, e.g. during the BJ) and might benefit from a rework, though I still prefer this art style over boring/average DAZ renders every day.

Updates with story progression are nice (especially for Meredith, the other characters are not that interesting), but I feel like adding more options/changes to existing scenes as the story goes along is also very important to emphasize the change in the relationship between the MC and Meredith.

Lastly, it would be awesome if more of the options to interact with things would result in interaction instead of just the MC thinking that he should probably not do that right now, even if the result of the interaction would be bad. Way to often you see that you can touch/interact with something, and then nothing happens, which is probably the only thing about this game that is annoying.

Easily one of the best 2D incest games on the market!

Doubly so if you can appreciate the humour and writing akin to old Point and Click adventure games from 80/90s (Leisure Suit Larry is obvious reference)

Probably one of the best, even if little content(but still great content) games about plowing your family on the internet.

It feels like an old school point and click game, but the scenes and dialogue...my god. Just great. The mother actually makes you feel like you're her son and the sister is annoyingly hot.

It's a little slow on the updates, but it's one guy I believe, so I let that shit slide. With what he has offered us already, I can easily wait for this game to finish. Unlike the others who are just stringing you along for the money.

Five of a Kind impresses with its stunning visuals, gripping story, and enjoyable mechanics. While the walking speed could be faster and the quest menu more informative, the game shines with its diverse characters. Implementing infinite save slots would further enhance the player experience. Overall, Five of a Kind is a captivating adventure worth exploring.

Got really bored with the walking about mechanics, really needs shortcuts. Do I really want to spend 5-10 minutes in a porn game walking to pick up tools right at the start?

Then the first quest is fixing items and instead of adding the list of items to be fixed to the quest tracker, you have to keep going back to the kitchen if you can't remember....... Really?

Then the click menu is just terrible. Click on something, walk very slowly to it, only to find some banal witterings. If you can't be funny or interesting, and it doesn't have something to do with the game, then don't bother adding it.

Gave up after this. Shame, it looks great and some scenes look interesting, but mechanics are king for me, and these just awfully boring.

Great game, a good tribute to late 90's click-and-point adventures. The game is fun, the art is top-notch and the sex scenes are really good.
I don't really know what more to write here, and f95 asks me to write more than 200 characters, so this is filler.

Pros

• A nice story emphasizing incest (& polyamorous in the future release/version, I guess). Incest approach with mom was very good, especially mom’s reluctance to give-up the morality was very well expressed.
• Quality of image renders are fairly OK.
• Quality of animations are fairly OK.
• Nice enlarged view of cock into the pussy & Cumming.
• Very good sexual lewd voice / sound.
• Interesting tasks and achievements.
• Playability, performance and grammar are all just OK no issue

Cons

• More of cartoon type; so, lack of reality.
• Wasting time in moving around, like walking and running.
• Could have been better if it is produced with RENPY or better.

Eagerly waiting for future releases.

Great! Brings me back to the old point-and-click adventures of the 80s-90s, but with hardcore sex. It also features full animation. I know it's a pipe dream, but let's hope with AI- the developer can get complete VOs for the characters.

5ive of a Kind is definitely one of a kind! None of the developers have ever thought to make a 2D game that was set in the 1980s. Any players who grew up in the 80s are probably having a nostalgia while playing this game. There are several technologies that are featured in the game, such as, an old television with antenna, an old vinyl record, 80s IBM style personal computer, and an old dial-up telephone that were available during that specific period of time.

Furthermore, the gameplay by far is great. You have a main character that walks and is able to engage with NPCs and several objects. There are also options in each engagement whether it would only be to observe or execute a dialogue. Tasks are also necessary in order for the game to progress.

Since this game is slightly new, I'd give the overall gameplay of 4.5/5. There are still plenty of room to add more features to make the game even better.

The dialogue is humorous. I'd say there are scenes in games that are witty in terms of comebacks. The narration of the game is very relatable when it involves the popular culture in the 80s. Sexual dialogues needs a little bit of improvement. From someone who reads adult comics and adult stories, well detailed description of the scene from the narrator is very important when describing a lewd sexual act. I'd give a solid 4/5.

As for character designs, I'd give it a 4.5/5. MCs looks may need some improvement but not a priority at the moment.

Sex scenes are mostly great! I think hand movements and kissing scenes that supposedly to be included each sex scenes must be added. Overall 4.5/5.

As for the setting, the game needs to add more places in a map. I hope the developer will include the school, gym, beach, forest, drive-in movie theater and many more. 3.5/5 at the moment.

The sounds of the game are originally composed by the developer. The musical style is very impressive because the developer, also known as the composer himself, managed to mimic the musical style of the 1980s. I'd give this a perfect score of 5/5!

Mini game at the moment only has a strip poker. I hope the developer will add more in the future. 3/5 overall rating at the moment.

Lastly, many of the players are complaining of the game progression. The progression of this game at least does not take further than 6 months. Each contents are not as much as expected from the player. However, the developer is simply a one-man army. Very impressive for a developer to produce the art and sounds that were only composed by himself. His game progression does not take as long as other games for a very little content. I'd give the game progression at least 4/5.

Overall, this game is incredibly unique. There are plenty of rooms for additional features in the future. I am hoping this game would become one of the few best adult games that has ever been created.

honestly this is one of my top games specially loving the 80's vibe it brings and references to old time movies. the writing is pretty great bit funny and loads of interesting characters with distinct personalities not a rinse and repeat with the other games. 4/5

gameplay its a unity game so its pretty solid with an open world and travel system point and click with puzzling solving is pretty enjoyable and day time cycle. 4/5

art wise as someone who enjoys and is open to the idea of different forms of artworks i think this is one of the good ones and plus points for being animated I'd say its 5/5.

the only down i think i have for this is how slow the updates are and how little the content they send our way. 4.5/5 still great game

As a child of the 80's, alot of TV-shows had the 80's as a stage. While this game centers exactly on that and further adds an interesting setting, it manages to brew a very nice atmosphere for itself. The out of style tropes, like the strictly religious aunt compared to the usually somewhat slutty aunt, and other slighty juxtaposed elements of the typical VN create an interesting narrative. The models are interesting and the scenes are as fun as they are sexy. All the best going forward!

TL;DR:
- v0.3.6.2
- pure Nostalgia
- nice 2D artwork and well-made animations
- fitting sound effects
- it's a little bit of a chore to play

On one hand, I absolutely love this game. It throws me back to the newer Zack McKracken game, and not just because of the style and game mechanics, but because of the humor as well. I also quite like the art style. It works. Normally, I would complain about the amount of work necessary to advance in the story and unlock the saucy scenes, but, in this setting, it's still a lot of fun!

I still have three major problems with this game:

1. While making your way through the storyline and unlocking scenes, it ALWAYS feels like I'm about to see a message telling me that I have reached the end of the game.

The diary does a great job guiding players, but seeing row after row of "in construction", "in development", and "Completed", while I have to senselessly sleep days away to wait for some event to trigger, makes it feel A LOT less fun. Like, I asked the aunt if she had some work for me to do, but after her response, I get a screen telling me that this feature is under construction. So, when I needed to get money for the bank to stop the foreclosure, and Nicole says that her mother could use someone who does work for her, I was sure the questline was over. Or when I had wrapped the Christmas gift for the mother and wanted to put it under the tree (because she even mentioned putting the gifts under the tree), I, again, got a "under construction" screen. Only by pure coincidence did I find out that I can give it to her directly.
If I hadn't seen the preview pictures on the OP page, telling me that there ARE scenes I haven't seen yet, I'd probably have turned the game off and waited for a few more updates by the time I completed the household repairs and finished the spring-cleaning quests.

2. There is absolutely no dirty talk whatsoever.

At some point, the devs even had the balls to make that some kind of skill! The game straight up tells you that your "dirty talk isn't high enough". The MC needs a damn skill to call the woman "Mommy" while she blows him and, at least, deliver on the incest kink? He needs a skill to comment on what he's feeling?
Dirty talk isn't hard. What IS hard, though, is unlocking the damn scenes. And then making me gain extra skills to retroactively improve on the repeatable scenes I already saw makes it feel damn tedious!

3. The MC is a Goody Two Shoes to a disturbing degree.

You can't touch anyone without expressed permission. You can't even try. You have multiple characters openly lusting after MC, like the aunt and cousin, but MC consistently rather runs away than inviting them in. When you try to watch the sister sleep, the game even pops up a message about "being as pro-consent as possible". When you tell the mother what was wrong with the grandfather clock, the game even SCOLDS you about lying by omission! If you want to show people how unrewarding it is to be the nice guy, have 'em play this game.

All in all, after a few updates, I would happily recommend this game. But, right now, it's a solid three because gameplay and content are on opposite sides of the scale.
