HTML - Friends of Mine [v1.3] [Sunfall]

This game is a pretty classic HTML game, nothing extroardinary that goes against what we see in other game.

What I like about it is the taboo incestual thing you can do in this game.

They did not make it the focus tho.

So you can grind a relationship with the mother and probably the sister, but its way too much of a sideline, its not the main storyline.

Good game but nothing crazy here.

This game is an underrated gem - while not nearly as popular as other great HTML games, like The Company, this game has managed to pull off a successful sandbox-style play, something no other HTML has pulled off as well or as extensively (though I'm trying give you some competition in that regard, Sunfall). Everyone should give this a try - it's a bit different from all the heavily linear games most Twine devs prefer, but it does its own thing really well.

Bit difficult for me to rate 3 or 4 as of v1.1.8:
On one hand, it's a html real porn life sim with Transformation, which is not that great;
on the other, it's better than the average of this kind of games.

Unlike most similar games in the market, you get the same amount of content for being a manly man, compare to become a femboy / sissy / woman. And rare that you can be a normal man and M2F other male. (Now we only need contents for F2M other female )

I'm pleasantly surprised, Unlike 99% of similar game in the market, you can actually have Gay contents that's not involving femboy / sissy / twink, or half-assed gay sex scenes.
Kudos to the dev, for not disrespect and only treated such as "extra cash milking machine" with bare minimum effort.

Tho the contents are not very rich as of v1.1.8, looking forward to see more.

The Gay Tag Review

Gay needle: this is a bit complicated. The game is open to straight and gay paths, but the attention seems to be more on the former (for example, there are gifs or pics of naked women around the locations, but never of men). So if you're one of those people who can't stand the view of tits or vaginas or women in general, that's not for you. But you can have an exclusive gay route. Note that it's easier to be bottom/submissive for that (more on that below).

This is a rather standard "porn sandbox life sim" similar to others of its kind. Doesn't reinvent the wheel but the various storylines, some with a tinge of supernatural (which is not clear where it will go), are blandly/moderately interesting.
The game however commits a capital sin for me: it equates masculine-top-dominant on one side and feminine-sissy-bottom-submissive on the other. Basically there is one parameter (masc-fem) that controls a lot of the scenes you see. You can have gay interactions if you have high masculinity (with you as the dom-top partner), but there are more limitations (for example, each job has a masculine and a feminine path, with the first presenting only straight scenes and the second only gay-sub scenes).
This thing makes the experience very boxed and irritating (note that, I guess, you won't have much of that problem if you are straight, as straight men mostly want to fuck women and not being on the receiving/submissive side unless you're on that kink -another evidence that the game was made mostly with straight men in mind).
I appreciate the fact you can have a gay option, with a somehow extensive storyline, but at this point it's not enough for me to give the game more than an Average if parts of it are limiting or don't work too well.

Great game, something for everyone i guess. Whether you like sissification/gay/dom/sub or just classic stuff. Great replayability for different paths you choose, though you can even change from a manly man into a sissy at any point if you so desire.

Review is for v1.1.4
A game that gives you too much freedom, but very little to actually do.
This is one of the harder reviews for me, not because I don't know what to say, but because I don't know if things are working as intended or not.
Like saving up $100 and buying the mysterious tape from the pawn shop enables you to become 100% femanized in one day since it doesn't take energy. If this is intended, then it completely breaks the entire game because there becomes very little to no reason to do any of the other content.
The quests take far too long to do if the tape is working as intended as well, because it's usually only a once a week thing, and if you miss it, you'll have to grind out another week of doing nothing.
Now, if all of this is working as intended, and the game is just in an incomplete state, so there will be multiple paths for all the different quests and jobs, then this game will more than likely be a good game by the end of it. As of right now though, it just feels like a whole bunch of different ideas that don't mesh well.
Update for 1.2.3
Game feels meaningless now. It's not bad by any stretch, but there's just no balance between the rete of feminization and the story, so your constantly going to be more feminized than the story thinks you are.

Very solid game.

I was thoroughly immersed in it for a good long while and at the end of the day that's all I'm looking for in a game. An effective momentary escape from the shit-storm that is the real world and this game delivered it. Eventually it did get to be slightly grindy trying to find the next step in a path but overall I was engaged in the story and in the erotic content enough that I didn't find the grind to be too much or un-engaging as many game progressions tend to be.

The story-lines may not be the most original out there but the range of content choices is and at least on the paths I've played thus far, they hit the right notes because the writing is very good. Being able to replay scenes is always a plus as well.

Looking forward to my next replay and to the next release.

Pretty bland, honestly. A lot of content, with a few distinct, branching paths, but it's everything you've already seen before from a real porn HTML game; sex over substance, gifs from random pornos that look nothing like the described characters, stat grinding, etc.

Pass.

Same bland formula. Game is absolutely terrible with 0 original inspiration, design or original story. Playing this game actually turned me gay. The scenes used from other pornos were so disgusting that it made me want to yank out my own penis and throw it in a compost heap.

I really don't see the appeal. This game is almost exactly like every other highly rated, mediocre text based game with real life porn gifs thrown in. The sex scenes are incredibly underwhelming with poorly written, very short sex scenes that lean entirely on the ill fitting gifs. The progression is tedium incarnate and is so devoid of fun that math seems like a viable alternative. The poor writing and short scenes could at least be excused if there was an overflow of diverse content...but there isn't.

There's so little content to be found within 5 hours of playing that it leaves me feeling that I'm somehow grinding wrong. If that is the case, the game certainly never gave me a clue of where I went wrong. It presents itself as offering diverse pleasure and, at times, m/m or f/m scenes, but the gifs included are exactly the same for both routes. This game is far from a labor of love and seems more like a testament to why this genre is often skipped over.

Tl;dr, boring, slow, and far too much pointless grinding for absolutely no payoff.

Barely enough content for 1 route, much less splitting the content into multiple routes based on sexual preferences.

Objectives are so spread out, that it feels you need to skip entire days to get to content.

Feels very unrefined despite the game being supposedly so old.

Even just viewing the clips straight up is unsatisfying, much less playing through the game for hours to unlock said clips.

That lack of satisfaction in a porn game is why I'll put it at 1.
Extra star for making a workable backbone game structure with functional UI.

This needs much more content to be viable or commit to one sexual preference and own it if you lack the resources instead of turning into a mediocre product.

This game makes me cum too fast. It's just too hot. It's got everything that makes me squirt, really hard. Also, the gameplay is alright. It's the Html style and that makes it easy to navigate. So many good girls in these games. Fun game, reminds me of another game I really like, this just has live porn. Training her to be a good girl is a lot of fun. When will this game get an update with new content? Also, it would be cool if we could customize characters.

the best HTML game of all time
I really like it. It was fun to play and also a nice story. The scenes are very nice and i cant wait to see further updates. I m looking forward to the female protagonist story line. Also Winter's story line could be very nice

Pros: Massive pool of side content, images are hot, story has meaningfully different branches allowing actual replay-ability.
Cons: Paths unfinished and progresss very slowly, still many bugs and unexplained/unimplemented functionality/items, the "open" world feels like a grind for the next event in the story you've chosen to follow rather than a part of an immersive experience.

Bugs that persist for more then and a year and almost zero updated. Game is still interesting but looks like developer don`t care anymore.

Nice gifs, good writing but not much added for several updates

Best game on the site, in my opinion. You can really pursue anything you like gay/straight/bi and trans versions of those things. All the other games here seem to try to push you into things. i hope the author starts on a new game or sequel though, rather than keeping on expanding this one, because each minor update has the effect of making me replay all the content i've already been through.

Very fun little game! Pretty straight and to the point, a bit grindy in places (maybe less so as more content is added, not sure - but money in particular gets a little annoying after a while, especially how to raise attractiveness since a lot of it runs low and you don't realize till way late that it pretty much has no meaningful effect to keep it up). But overall a good game to play one handed, and I'll be keeping up with updates. (also one of the few with bisexual content!)

One of the best HTML's of this kind, but it seems to have been left aside by Dev.
It still has great potential and I hope it will be like before.

Pros:
- A good variety of Side quests and paths that can be followed.
- Sissy yourself and your friend, Hetero and gay paths. This pleases all preferences.
- Updates with a certain regularity. (usually monthly)

Cons:
- Numerous bugs that persist in several updates.
- Several broken images and gifs.
- Updates with less and less content that passes the feeling that Dev. is unmotivated and became an obligation.

I will continue recommending because it is still the best of the style currently and I see that still has much to show.

We hope.

2/5 - DNF; did get me off

The game bills itself as having choice, but really you only get one choice where either you become a sissy, make your friend a sissy, or dom his sister. Once you make that choice you cannot fight back or influence the game to another outcome.

Besides that, your choices are fuck or don't fuck, and you can get male/female points, but these don't have any significant effect (ie if you choose the dom path, fem points don't do anything for you)

The scenes are short but well written, the gifs are hot, but if like me you're looking for more of a "game" rather than a "story", this isn't it.

Very nice, it awakes your other side It contains a lot of material pegging, transexuals, crossdresser, gay, straight, incest, mastrubation with dildo, femdom, etc etc. It has a ton of different material and it is easy to access. Be careful is very addicting, but since I played this, I have done one of the best pegging sex with my wife. Well done ...
