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.
