VN - Ren'Py - Grandma's House [Part 5 v0.69] [Moonbox]

Looked promising at first, but now it's just a shitshow with lots of mediocre to ugly renders. Mostly consists of MC either hugging or humping random women who are pissing themselves for no reason when they see him.

This used to be one of my favorite game, I really liked how it started but... Now? Same boring teasing update after update, and the MC is just out here fucking all these useless side chicks that no one gives a F about, there's no story progression and the characters that I actually like (Nana) and a couple others have zero content yet and most likely will have nothing interesting until the very end of the game, BORING.

Like most have said, Do not expect a deep story on this one. That being said one thing this story does deliver on is humor. Not just in the writing but in the animations as well. Every update has me laughing more than the last. This is one of the few games on here that I look forward to an new update. Sure the story may be "simple" but there is just a ton of fun packed into this game. Just don't expect and reality in the story.......But hell how much do you actually expect from a harem story ?


Well done author, keep it up and let the naysayers move on.

v0-21
Pros:
You can choose most of the girls you want to be with.

Cons:
Story/writing:
There is not much story to speak of, and the game just feels bland,drags way too long, and has lazy porn logic that just lets you fuck the women you wan´t , without working for it.
The women have no personality and are just boring.
The writing is uninteresting and the texts/dialogues are painfully long and add nothing to the game. I later started to skip most of it on the highest speed and there were lots of dialogues that took ages to end.

A lot of the Women in this game are bowling shoe ugly, with some of the most bizarre body shapes i´ve ever seen in a game, with few exceptions.
The Mc is boring and his dick looks way too big to do anything with it.

Sex Scenes:
The Sex scenes are incredibly boring and are just static images and no animations and with no sound in them.
When the game only revolves around having sex with everyone who crosses paths with you and little to no story, then at least have some decent sex scenes.

I´m really not sure who I can recommend this game to.
Maybe if you are alright with static sex scenes then this game might be for you but idk.

One of the most poorly written VNs on the site. The dialogue is bland and empty and gets worse with each update.

You'd think having a huge cast of different females would be a strength but it's a weakness here since most of the main girls get no scenes and the side girls that I have no interest in get hooked on the MC's dick without any build up or valid reason.

If you plan on skipping all the dialogue and just seeing the scenes then go for it cause reading the back of a shampoo bottle is more amusing than this.

This is the VN that got me into 3D rendered stuff. I exclusively enjoyed 2dcg and 2d content until i gave this a try and damn it was worth it. I love how MC cares about every women he is affectionate with and can be the right amount of rough in the right time and it's not the typical corruption type or being a loser to get pity sex type cuz it sickens me. Being romantic and passionate with neglected women mixed in with virgin love stories are so tasteful.
The only complainant i have is that MC being a bum, well i hope with the Opelia storyline it will change or MC might start doing something cause while as much as i like MC going around seducing women their seem to be a lack of a main story or a plot.

[Reviewed v0.21]

I've been playing this VN from the start, and while the game has a lot of heart, it is very rinse-and-repeat. It has a ton of H-scene content but it is often very shallow / uninspiring. Give credit to the dev for their consistent update schedule -- they are very frequent.

The Good

• Huge diversity of girls with different personalities, body types and overall looks
• Main characters (including MC) are nice and easy to root for
• Lots of H-scenes and these are added with every update

The Not-So-Good

• The story has made less and less sense over time. The MC is being dragged into diluted conversation after diluted conversation with an increasingly large cast of characters that is hard to keep track of
• The story began (generally) grounded in realism but has devolved into messy threads that are mostly implausible
• The girls are all good looking but few are ... sexy. There is little seduction or intrigue -- the H-scenes are almost rote in how predictably they play out.

Will continue to follow this game but at this point, it is what it is -- a shallow harem f*ckfest that has breadth of content but no depth.

The game has only average graphics by current standards but the models are good enough that together with the scene setting and during-sex-scene dialogues and some hot fetishes they can make the sex scenes hot.
The game has a large amount of female cast for all kinds of tastes and a lot of sex scenes, so if you are here only for those and don't care about logic this game might be for you.
All women and fetishes are (mostly) optional so even if you are not interested in some of them or even find them disgusting, you don't have to skip the game completely.

There are some not so good stuff too however.
The beginning of the game sets up MC as a smart and hardworking guy, who just finished his studies at a university while working on the side to help with the expenses and now that he returns home, he is planning to get a job soon.
However the dev seems to have dropped that in favor of giving mc the time and ability to go where they want and when they want and help whomever they want to without care for expenses.
This however turned MC to a bum who doesn't work, only sits home watching TV while waiting for some girl to call or visit him.
He is also an orphan, so he supposedly cares for family and sympathizes with kids who have no parents or their parents are trash. Despite that he goes around with some causal relationships, impregnating woman (optional) in some cases and in some cases we don't know if he will ever see them again.

Another sore pint for me is Nana. This is a very subjective point, so if you are into her, you might not find any issues with this. As I mentioned fetishes and love interests are (mostly) optional however Nana is such a central character that there is a huge amount of content with her, both standard family and relationship stuff.
If you don't like her you will find that you have to skip through a lot of stuff in some updates just get to the next person.
A related but less subjective point is that sometimes sex scenes with one character are connected to sex scenes with a different character with a different type of fetish.
Early in the game you had the chance to have sex with the real estate agent. I a recent chapter you could have a threesome with her and Mabel if you were on the Mabel route. There is no alternate scene however if you refused Mabel.
She is not a main love interest, so it's not a big issue currently, but as the harem comes together and group scenes will probably become more common you might be left out more and more content if you chose to avoid some characters and fetishes.

This game is a solid canvas. It has many good features. The girls are all different and you can choose and pick which ones you like or not, like bbw, gilf or loli. They look pretty good. I especiallly enjoyed the Indian sisters.
Now, why only 3 stars? Because its empty.
There are sex scenes, sure, plenty even, but they dont feel good. There is no conflict, no sense of conquering or seducing women. They all want your (weirdly big) dick instantly.
Like, one corny "youre pretty" pickup line and they rip off your clothes. Its boring.
If you do not have to do anything but say Yes or No to sex everyday, its just going from scene to scene.
The story is non-existent. Its just the MC meeting girls who want his dick from the get-go every single day.
This is a good canvas, but the actual painting is unexciting.

It's been a while since I've been this torn about my thoughts on a game/VN. I'd give it a middle of the road score, but since that's not an option I'd say that it deserves a three more than a two because in spite of my gripes, it's above average rather than below. Now, for my thoughts (collapsed into spoilers in the interest of not taking up too much screen space):

Pros:


Cons:



Final thoughts: Is Grandma's House a *bad* VN? No, I wouldn't go that far. There's enough to like, and I'm sure there's plenty of folks who wouldn't be bothered by the stuff on my list of cons (or even consider them pros). It's a decent light read, doesn't waste time getting to the smut, and there aren't many other VNs that lay on the sweetness as thick as this one does. I don't regret the time I've spent reading it, but if I ever finish reading it will be after a long break. Overall it just doesn't make the cut for what I look for in a VN. But it's definitely a mixed enough of a bag that I'd suggest taking a look and judging for yourself, unless you're completely turned off by the bulk of my cons.

This is one of the two games where I expect updates as much as my monthly pay!
Interesting story and the visuals of the game are of very good quality. Very exciting dialogues with the urge to see where relationships develop in upcoming updates. Please consider supporting on Patreon!

Hmm I was kind of torn between 3 and 4 stars and went with four because the game at least isn't aiming at being sick. God, trying to find anything outside of a handful of slow developing decent games is pretty hard. I don't mind admitting I don't like lesbo crap and forget ntr/sharing and soft cucking that is so popular. In that sense the game ticks a bunch of boxes (for now)as it is. I can see that changing though as at some point I can sense a threesome (boring) or sudden conversion of some of the girls to being bi happening. The story if you want to call it that dips into some pretty silly territory already. The last couple of updates especially were bordering on ridiculous. From rapey maids to bj's from cops to some random chick in a shower at the beach (who the aunt suggests the MC engage with, which lands them in jail) I can see this going sideways the longer it goes. I never thought the story was great but pointless scenes like these aren't very interesting.

The art is pretty decent as there is a nice variety amongst the girls/women. Even the grandma is decent except weirdly for when she is sleeping where the dev decided to make her face look like she just got punked by a dutch oven from the MC. There are a lot of women so really most of them don't see much content per update. Personally I think the dev should do the nana event people are waiting for and then see how it goes. I've seen more than a few games where the buildup was far more dramatic than the event and this could easily happen here. Also a lot of casual sex is at odds with a loving relationship with at least some of the harem. Is nana just going to be another notch on the bedpost? I don't know but the game has this problem with focus that isn't being helped by just adding more fuck buddies.

The game is pretty good in its way but there is just a bit if unreality that is constant. The Mc has to be the luckiest guy in the world-his laying around with his telephone pole out seems to be accepted by every woman he meets family or not family. No one ever seems to mind and after a quick comment and a giggle they just accept that each moment with the MC will be chaperoned by a giant cock that is never asleep. It's a bit much sometimes.

Anyway it is a decent enough game even if it's a bit shallow. It has nice models and some pretty cute moments (ie the stuttering girl who becomes the maid). I think it's worth a play unless you like horrible fetishes then you will hate it for sure. 4 out of five seems fair.

The dialogues and story are not appealing at all and feel really forced and unreal. Starting in the fly where a girl that you don't know start to flirt with you, the MC makes a stupid "joke" about that he like her tits and she laught and after that she invites him to have sex in the bathroom.
In the airport the first thing the MC does is look at her grandma tits, and during all the game the only thing he does is tell her how hot and sexy she is and she instead of feel weirded out because his grandson is lusting after her, she feel flattered. The game is so basic in everyway that is very predictable that the MC will end fucking every girl with no effort.
I didn't talk about the story where all his family die, but there are a lot of inconsistencies in how a kid could live on his own and why the grandma never tried to be with him and let him live alone being just a kid.
All the characters look pretty young, the MC looks older than the Grandma and many other characters that have his same age or are older.

I found out about this game yesterday. I'm enjoying it so much! I think this is my first Harem game that I have zero qualms about where the story is going.

The tone and humor was set so perfectly right out of the gate ... I couldn't be having more fun.

A part of me wants everyone to get the loving they deserve ... but the other part of me hopes Nana remains the happy matriarch -- loved and adored and free of obligations.

Easily one of my favorite games out there. Never has a porn game made me smile with all the wholesome dialogue. The CGI is well done, the character cast is diverse and interesting, The updates are regular and are a decent length too. If you haven't played it, I wholly recommend it.

Great game, great story, a definite must play! Every single love interest is beautiful, the sex is great, what more could you ask for? This review keeps asking for 200 characters, and it feels like there are that many women to get with in this game.

I've been putting off playing this game for a good bit (was almost even longer because I personally don't like games that are split into multiple sections), but I can say this game is worth definitely worth trying. If you are like me you usually go for the more kinky games (to put it lightly), but even if this one isn't as extreme as some of the others I love, I can say it is definitely up there with games such as Ravager and Raptus for me.

The art is quality, not breathtaking, but nothing has really drug me out of the game or made me shift my focus (well, except maybe the girl Omar went for... not my cup of tea, but eh). The story is good, not world changing, but definitely feels genuine and is entertaining enough to keep my attention between the sex scenes, I haven't felt any scenes have dragged on too long to the point of frustration, and even if all the girls want to jump your bones, most seem like actual people (albeit very very horny). And although the sex scenes are somewhat tame compared to some of my usual favorites, they are quite good, a tiny tiny bit too infrequent and short, but the story is good enough it's usually not a bother). Also the variety in the girls' personality and appearance is actually top tier, while of course everyone is rather bust and has a butt to match, the variety of sizes and shapes is rather appealing to me (also every girl you encounter is at least somewhat attractive in my eyes, the only notable exception I've seen is the girl Omar picked up, but eh, more for me I guess).

In summary 5/5, not the "porniest" game, and a bit tame, but definitely worth a try.

(review is for 0.18 version of the game)

Pretty much a perfect game that perfectly fits my tastes. I put off playing the game for a good while after discovering it simply because I'm really not into granny porn, but after playing it I can confidently say I not only fell in love with the grandmother in the story; I even really wouldn't mind some more action with her (there isn't any yet as of this review) because she really doesn't register as a granny to me.

What really gets me is how the story in this game grabs me so much. Not because of specifically any mindblowing writing or any fantastical story beats, but more because of how human it all is in so many ways and how I really just want to take care of (almost) all the women I meet in the story because nearly all of them have something like a tragic past or an unfulfilling present that makes me just want to sweep them up and show them a better future.

I also really like how the game pretty much has at least one woman for almost any given kink you might have, and almost all of them are optional, so if there are certain kinks you don't like, you don't have to see it (I certainly opted out of a few of them).

The models are absolutely fantastically gorgeous, and even while not really animated the sex scenes are very, truly good.

If I have one hope for the future it's that I hope more of the girls and women move in with the MC. It would probably mean the MC would ahve to move again to an even bigger house, but that wouldn't be a hard sell at all in the story. There are just several married women who needs to dump their useless men at the bottom of a well so that they can be happy on full time and a few other girls with untenable living situations who just really deserve to be adopted.

The only things I could say about this game that are even close to being bad are firstly that there is no animation or music. I feel like none of those are strictly necessary because the models and everything else is so good, and REALLY wouldn't be worth it if including them meant less overall content for each update, but utlimately they WOULD heighten the experience if they were to be introduced. And secondly that there are almost too many girls/women. It's a blessed complaint to have in a way but it really feels quite often like it was just too long ago we met a certain love interest, or even many of them.

I'm not a fan of games where every girl you meet you eventually fuck but this game does it very well. You aren't forced into a route with a girl you aren't interested in and each girl is unique personality and physically wise.
I love games with some slow burn romance and this game does it exceptionally well as of v0.17. The reason the romance is done well is because of the absolute GIGACHAD of a MC. He is charismatic and kind but isn't a wimp or an absolute creep to the girls . 10/10 MC.
The only problem I have with this game is that there is no music (some sex noises would be nice as well). Otherwise, this is still my favorite game on this site.

This got very boring very quickly. It seemed interesting in the beginning because of the large number of different types of characters in the game but the differences actually ended up being different shades of the same colour. There's absolutely no depth and complexity to the characters and the story. Unlocking the gallery and watching every scene on it's own would actually be better cause the story is practically non existent.
