    the game is simply great! well it's not really a game but a visual novel so you'll be busy reading and clicking through dialogue but that doesn't matter because the story is really well written and got me hooked from the start.. it's one of the best VN and games i played so far..

    i got so involved with the characters and couldn't help myself but went through it within the last 6 hours or so with one bathroom break.. the story is very well done as said, some spelling errors aside that are more prominent towards the end of the current update but i guess they will be sorted out with the next update(s) as up to the very end it was pretty much flawless..

    the renders are good and pretty much up to standard with other games and VN our there.. what i was pleasantly surprised with were the animations which were really well done..
    i don't want to spoil anything here so i leave it at this:

    if you are into the kinks the tags suggest then you'll like this VN.. i also want to possitively mention that you have lots of freedom with the girls in the story.. well mostly.. you'll still always live with your twin (i mean everyone should be aware that this incestious relationship is more or less the main point of this game so that should be clear)..
    but i like the option to NOT be basically forced into a relationship with every girl and fuck them all.. especially if the story is so sweet and bittersweet at the same time..
    i can't really bring myself to play the worst asshole because that is just not me in real life and not me in game life so to speak.. now i can't wait for the next update of this VN and to see where the path i choose leads me.. i guess if you don't go for all of the girls you also have a lot more replay value as you can choose another one for the next time around! and i guess for me it surely wasn't the last!

    i can only recommend to give this a try!

    I never wrote a review before but after playing this visual novel game I m
    Overwhelmed, you guys are outstanding, and definitely going to heaven
    Well jokes aside the best about this one is the emotional bonding and love between mc and his
    s*ster
    Definitely one of my favorite visual novel, I just felt bad for MC's s*ster, right now after knowing that i just want more love to her and caring ofcourse
    And don't leave that ma da fa ka

    One of the best games in terms of story that I´ve ever played.

    The characters are all very interesting, Haley especially and the relationship with her evolves naturally, and surprisingly romantically.

    Not too many scenes (increases over time), but at this point I would also just play for the story and the characters that you become quite attached to.

    *Update 2021*
    I finished the completed version:
    + Love the renders...especially Haley!
    + Enjoyable dialogue and VN story
    -- Too dark on any of the evening/night scenes
    > Meh...choices don't seem to matter much as it has two options: a) Sandra route and b) not Sandra route
    + I'm one who enjoys the incest storyline.
    + I like the pace of the progression from brother/sister to something more
    -- animations are some of the worst I've seen that it would have been better to not break the 'immersion' and simply continued with the still images

    OVERALL: One of my top 20 or 30 favorites.

    ========================
    I haven't even finished yet (actually I'm only on page 2 of the 6 page walkthrough) and I had to come over here and leave a review. Most games you get a sense pretty quickly if it is going to be interesting or not.

    I'm loving the story's pace.
    I love the glib banter that flows well and doesn't feel forced (great writing).
    Humor is always a good quality but balanced with serious (and for an adult game "sexy") overtone, which this has so far.

    Very enjoyable. In these early stages, it is about the story and less about the sex and I'm okay with that for the reasons briefly outlined above. Keep it going!

    This once was a good game but somewhere along the line the dev either lost interest or vision and it's turned into a mess. After finally getting rid of a mentally unstable girlfriend most people didn't like and you could not avoid, like Rocky VI she back only she's not only back but in both paths as it split into one with her and the one without her only the one without her has her in it as well and there is no difference hence me wonders why on earth is there now two pathways if you cannot be rid of the bride of Frankenstein.
    Even the story aside from her is drama dealing with a pedo from long ago when there's a hot MILF story unexplored. I'm doing my spring cleaning early this year and I'm starting with this one!

    Got to agree with others saying this one feels very real, realistic characters, relations, development. It jsut feels like something that can actually happen, unlike the ridiculous stories we have in like 98% of the games here (not that having a ridiculous stroy is that bad, mind you)

    Great renders, models, etc. and ofc great writing.

    My only complaint would be i kinda felt Sandra was forced onto me in the beginning even though i tried my best to avoid her, and still trying to send her away but she's still around and acting like we are a couple o_O
    I really hope there would be kind of harem-ish ending as i like almost all of the other female characters, just not Sandra...

    Wow!!!!!!! All i can say is WOW. I have played this game for 6 hours straight and cant get enough. Very real interactions from the characters and graphics are very good. Could use some better animations though but Im sure you are working on that. Thank you for an enjoyable experience.

    I usually really dislike vanilla/slow build-up games. I didn't really care for things like Melody or Acting Lessons. I wasn't particularly expecting to like this game, either. But man, the dialogue puts this one on another level. Haley has such gems as:

    MC: "What do you want?" (As in, out of the relationship)
    Haley: "What do I want?"
    Haley: "He he”
    Haley: ”Pringles."

    and

    Creepy dude from work: "What is life like for you?"
    Haley: "Well, every day I wake up and pull my gun out of my drawer and say, not today little buddy... not today."

    I feel like a lot of game devs, partway through their game's development, decide to go for an Oscar and focus on writing instead of lewd content. Usually, these devs ruin their game as a result, because they get carried away with dialogue and don't have the talent to support it. This is the game that those games wish they could be. This game is concise, funny, gripping, and most importantly, sexy.

    I'll be giving this one five stars. i just finished last version of the game and I've got to say this is one is a very nice one and probably one of the best games I've found on this website. I like the kind of harem route and the fact that it is not too pusnishing nor to cumbersome to do what you want.

    This is my first review and normally I just lurk, but I was blown away by how good this game was (as of 0.7).

    Now don't get me wrong, it's not a masterpiece among entertainment. But as compared to other games of a similar design/story, this is near the top of the list.

    As a writer myself, the sometimes atrocious grammar and sentence flow turns me off of a lot games that might otherwise be really good. This game has damn near zero issues in the technical aspects of the writing. I came across a couple of typos, and one "your" where there should have been a "you're" in my several hours of play time.

    For the creative aspects of the writing, it's not a revolution in the genre. You've probably played vaguely similar games before. But everything it does it does very well. The characters all talk like real people, the siblings feel like actual siblings, and the build up of their relationship is the best in class. Their relationship feels natural, not like they were waiting for the flimsiest excuse to get into each others pants.

    The renders are well made and I never felt like I had seen any of the models a thousand times. The sex scenes had no real issues that I can recall, and since what makes a sex scene good or not is fairly subjective I won't harp on that topic too much.

    If you want a game about two siblings fucking each other at the first opportunity, you might be disappointed. But if you want a well rounded story about two siblings falling in love that will keep you interested even when nothing sexual is happening, this is the game for you.

    As others have said, this is the first time i give a rating because i feel the duty to do it.
    It is simply excellent in many respect and it has a lot of qualities, but i think there is one in particular that makes a difference to many other games: dialogues. They are very pleasant, never boring and especially they are not so long as a speech by a politician before the elections. The author manages to narrate the story without long boring monologues or long explanations about characters actions.
    All of this makes the story telling more realistic and beliavable.

    Naturally it also has features of high level games: rendering quality, tons of images and a strong characterization of protagonists.

    I was pleasantly surprised with the dialogue in this one. The characters are likable and the story flows well. The character models are well done. I just really enjoyed this one. Cam't wait for future updates.

    ++ Overall imagery
    ++ Great story
    ++ Haley's character and her writing
    + Decent animations
    + Multiple paths
    - Few glitches/missing images (current version 0.70) but really nothing big or broken

    I came for the lewd content and stayed for the story. Damn, its getting me emotionaly involved - meaning very good job from the devs. If you look out from obvious taboo, it's really heartwarming love story that reminds me of other similar VN with female protagonist in name.
    I love it and cant wait for complete story!
    After seeing some foreshadowing of the plot I just really, really hope this will have possible happy ending despite everything that might happen....

    V0.70

    Right, I don't say this a lot but this game is insanely good!
    The storytelling is just amazing. It's on par with actual novels I've read. The only game that you can compare this to is Melody
    Lets get into more of the specific ratings:

    Storytelling 9.9/10
    I know I mentioned earlier about the story telling but let me just reiterate. This isn't just your run of the mill incest game, oh no. It has that flair, that passion behind its story that i find extremely hard to find in over games. The plot makes sense, you actually have to play for scenes, the game is more made for its story than its scenes. However, that's not saying the scenes are bad. I want to also comment on the character development: It's really good for 95% of the game, however, it does get somewhat stagnant near the end (of version 70). Best story telling I've seen!
    My one critique would be: I would of preferred the relationship with Haley to of been more dragged out and not foreshadowed.

    Art/renders 8/10:
    The thing i see a lot of games do is reuse models. Now, I know, its not easy to make ones from scratch. This game thankfully has new models. The art in itself is nothing special, however, it's nothing to scoff at.

    Choices 5/10. There isn't many choices so far. The ones that are in the game seem to impact your game play. However, I don't think there will be game changing choices like that in games with multiple endings.

    Renders 8.5/10 : One of the biggest issues I see with games is animations that are just shite: No time taken, you can see the genitals glitch inside each other and many over deplorable issues. This game's animations feel like they have had time spent on them and feel good. Of course at the end of the day it's just a gif, but how good that gif is can really be the brake it or make it. I'd definitely say that the animations are on par with some of the biggest games. However, it would be nice to see alternate camera angles (Maybe that's just me :oops:)

    Pacing 7/10: The pacing of a game is important as to fast and I lose interest, too slow and i cant be bothered to nut. This game balances this somewhat well at times, but sometimes it feels too fast .

    fetishes : 5/10: To be honest, there are not much .I would love to see some fetishes, besides from Incest, added to the game.
    Here are my humble suggestions
    1) Impregnation (You already can cum inside, but it would be nice to have the MC think about the whole "I don't what 15% of my salary to go to some whore ".
    2) Humor (At the start of the game the humor is on point. However, once you romanticize Haley it kind of dies down. I'm not asking for Michael McIntyre level, but something close would be nice.)
    3) Feet (There seems to be a scene where there is a foot job,but it's pretty meh)
    4) Leg where/tights (Probably just me)
    5) Internal view (See this a lot in hentai, but would love to see it applied here!)
    6) Groping

    Personal Views:
    Like I said previously, this game is different. It really is one of the best I've played (And I've played a lot). The game makes me feel scared that it'll end.
    I know were not supposed to promote other games but while you're waiting for this game to get updates I'd heavily recommend checking out Dating My Daughter by Mr Dots games and or Melody by Mr Dots games.

    I will add though, if you don't like romance (I mean it's glorified romance, but still) then don't bother. If you're just here to bust a nut then this game isn't for you!
    Good luck to Viitgames in future endeavors!

    I came across it for the first time and I was surprised. The animations and quality are excellent. The story is great too, it doesn't jump straight to the action like most games. There is a build-up of the 2 main characters' journey as they discover their relationship. Hope to see more of this in the future. 9.5/10.

    Cheap rape-related drama ruined this game for me. I loved the renders and especially the design of Haley but at this point, I think I'd rather just download some mods for sims 4 and recreate her in that game, free of stupid drama.

    The game handles the brother/sister dynamic very well, better than any other game I can remember. The other plot lines I find largely uninteresting. +1 for that childhood bedroom scene, +1 for redhead. Gingers are the hottest.

    BigDaddy316

    I thought it was pretty solid(for a vn with few choices other then which girl you pursue) until the last two updates which introduce completely random drama(and other assorted bs), that I have zero interest in.

    Dont get me wrong its not the worst game ever made but this is where I jump ship.

    Good Points
    + Not all of them like this but main animations looks good.
    + We have well written and interesting story. Espacily Haley and MC thoughs about their relationship, MC's effort for resisting, small affection changes or like this details written realy good. He is fighting this feelings like real life and this makes things realy good.

    Bad Points
    - Not that bad thing but animated sex angles are looks little bit weird and they are not that attaractive to watch.
    - I dont know why but game story became boring with time, DEV cant continue to give us that flow game had in first versions...
    - Render and animation quality could be far more better than this. Espacily girls faces and bodies could have use some changes.

    For The End
    Well it was quite good game and its even completed, not abandoned! Which is quite rare these days... While there is some bad points i mentioned our game have pretty well written story and decent other details which makes this game pretty good, i do suggest you play and enjoy this game.

    Ok, I am completely editing my review as of 0.70.

    I want to preface this by stating really really enjoy this game. The relationship from bff/brother/sister to lover? is well done in my books and that is with me not really being into the incest kink much. I think the relationship is very natural and human-like which is hard to get right in games.

    That being said, there is much to be desired from in my opinion. The forced relationship with Sandra really is frustrating; first of all, she is sweet and attractive and definitely cares for MC. But she is very boring, and doesn't really offer much in regards to sex scenes. I for one am not a fan of making the MC some asshole cheater but in this game I feel obligated to pretty much because of this forced relationship.

    I feel like this is a huge drain on the game because even a potential LI refuses sex because of your relationship. I also feel the MC is very generic; it would be great to see him show more personality and not just be "the guy in the sex scenes". Another potential issue is the secret about Haley's past with one of her teachers has the potential to break the game if it isn't done well. As of this update, it isn't confronted yet so it is too early to tell.

    Now back onto the things this game does right. The renders are very pretty and the girls seem for the most part natural and beautiful. This is a huge plus in favor of the game. The dialogue is great as well. There is legitimately funny humor in some parts of the game and I would say the characters are mainly likeable. I really like both of their bosses and most of their friends. Even the relationship between their mom and dad is interesting.

    As I sort of touched upon earlier, the relationship between the MC and Haley feels pretty natural considering how close they had always been. Along with this, certain scenes like Haley bite his nose etc.. add a lot of personality to the game. It doesn't feel robotic and once again feels natural.

    For the most part, I love playing this game but there are just a lot of really annoying issues particularly the forced relationship and MC being so generic. Perhaps if MC talked a bit more or at least had some inner dialogue thrown in every now and again it would make him more interesting.

    Anyways, this game is definitely worth a shot in spite of my complaints. I really hope this game closes out on a strong point.
