VN - Ren'Py - Completed - Haley's Story [v1.1 Pre-Patched] [Viitgames]

This game is much more grounded then most you can find around here...
I do love the characters, the main girl is fun, has her own agency and is (of course) a little crazy. Also the chemistry is a lot less forced then in most stories like this! But the side characters are also interesting and nothing is to out of place.
If you like a well written romance between siblings (twins without that stupid harem thing or bullshit "all want to fuck the nerd" stories, than this is for you!

Had a lot of fun playing this. Nice pacing, not too quick. The pubic choice was very nice, but would be nice to heve her growing it instead of being forced to have her shave it.

Image quality was good too, and the dialogs we also good and reasonably believable (considering the type of game).

When I first started playing this game, I didn't think too much of it. Now here I am, having completed several playthroughs. Visually, it's not the best, but the characters in this game are great. Haley is easily one of my favorite characters, not just in adult games, but in fiction. There were several moments involving her where I literally burst out laughing, which pretty much never happens in games like these (I still think about the scene where she held up her fist and "commented" about your girlfriend). As a story, it's well worth the read.

One of my favorite games .

Haley is one of the most remarkable VN character I've met. She is charming, funny, and caring. Until now, I've never met another woman from other games that matches Haley's personality.

The dynamics between the MC and Haley feels natural and convincing . I really like the romantic relationship between the two which really gave butterflies to my stomach.

Yes, the story's twist is quite controversial and unusual for this kind of game. It really makes you sad for Haley and take care or protect her more.

My only issue with this game is its ending. Yes, it wrap ups some points of the story but I think the dev can still expound it. Nevertheless, the game is overall an unforgettable experience.

An incest romance, that plays and reads like one. Unlike most games with these tags on this site.

It has a good amount of sex, seduction and most importantly semi-realistic romance . The star of the show is obviously the Haley character. MC can get involved with other girls, but the plot will always revolve around his relationship with Haley. As it should for a game named like that.

The highlight is the relationship between the two protags. While it gets going too fast for my liking (considering its nature), it has a few twists and turns. The most controversial (and most interesting to me), was a little revelation of a past event, that strongly influenced Haley's psyche. And was the reason for her ... unusual sexual tendencies. What should be a given for stories like this one (obviously abnormal relationships should have roots in mental fuckery), is unsurprisingly treated as controversial here. Maybe we are too used in absurd fuckfests that don't make any sense in other games, or some purity snowflakes who want every female to be virgin are too loud....

Sadly either that noise, burnout or some other reason I can't possibly know, caused this to have an obviously rushed ending. It tries to wrap up everything too fast after a point, leaving many important sub-plots unresolved. Still a fun game in this genre, if you are sick of brat +MILF + 2 sisters recipe and want something more grounded.

Haley's story has some shortcomings but despite all that it is one of the best sister/brother romance VNs available.

Sure, you do get railroaded into one of the girls other than Haley, she will become your girlfriend pretty early on even if you reject her all the way through and want noting to do with her, and yes, the twist around the halfway point of the story is a bit unexpected and makes things a bit darker than they need to be, HOWEVER, said twist does not ruin the relationship with Haley at all (I would say it strengthens the bond and helps Haley recover from a past trauma) and the forced upon girlfriend only has a few interactions with you and will eventually be dropped completely if you want nothing to do with her.

And sure, the ending is incredibly rushed, but it's a happy ever after, even if you don't really get to see it and things are mostly just implied. But the two main characters (if you choose that route) are 100% happy and good things are in the future for them. It's apparent the developer lost the will to invest much more time into the VN at this point.

The interactions between the brother and sister are sweet, wholesome often quite funny and if you can accept a somewhat darker twist (It's just lines of dialogue about an event in the past, you never see anything) at the halfway point in an otherwise very wholesome VN, then Haley's Story will deliver and you will spend a few nice hours with this VN.

A beautiful story with good H-scenes and surprisingly compelling relationships and characters. There were a few little things I wished I could have done differently, but I got two endings to see what changes were made, and I enjoyed them both. The smut is great, but this is a game you can play for the story, with the smut being a bonus on top.

This one did emotional damage. Which is not something I look for in a porn game.

The game is well written, the pacing is very good and I was very invested in the main LI. I liked the banter between them, the rituals and the way they first communicated a lot of their feelings by gestures before they started being able to talk about them. I would have rated it a 5 at that point. So, one of the first and major climaxes of a love story like this is the first "full" sex, right? And while the scene wasn't great, it was good enough (and the location and Haley's narration were good ideas I think) - but immediately after that, Haley drops a rapey NTR-in-the-past bombshell that seems to be the reason for all the present kinkiness (which is why it feels very NTR-ish to me). It comes out of nowhere, it nuked my boner, my enjoyment of the story, my interest in Haley and has left me more or less flabbergasted for 30 minutes. I wanted to fap to a nice romantic story, not deliver emotional blunt trauma to myself.

The writing and scenes quality falls of a cliff at that point anyway. You get some more H-scenes, which I started to pace through because they became so lifeless and boring (no more dirty talk, no d/s play) and then you get one of several "endings" which are the textbook example of rushed.

Plus:
Interesting story, beautiful girls, multiple ending, the FMC is pretty sassy

Minus:
The girls from supporting role don't had many scenes

Big thanks for , can't wait for your next game

Not worth starting. The writing quality falls off a cliff and explodes into cliches and a classically rushed ending. I didn't play with the incest patch but I doubt that finishes the storylines. Admittedly, the animations are good though.

"Haley's Story" is a sweet, funny, and sexy VN, one very much worth playing for those who enjoy the brother-sister taboo (with the incest patch) or the forbidden roommate angle (without the patch). This is not a VN for those looking to fap right out of the gate. The relationship between Haley and the MC builds slowly, in a way that felt deliciously real to me.

There are other love interests (LIs), but as the title makes clear, it is Haley's story, so if you're looking for a harem or hoping to be with only another character, you should look elsewhere. Having said that, Haley is...uh, open minded, so your MC won't feel lonely.

I really enjoyed the whole story, though were some plot elements I wish had been fleshed out more. Unfortunately, I get the impression that the dev was getting bored or hoping to move on to something else, because the ending seems quite rushed, and the last third or so of the VN contains no player choices.

The artwork is fine. Not the best available, but Haley is gorgeous and very sexy. The animations are a bit janky, but get the job done.

Ya I would have to echo what another poster said in their review that this game was one I really enjoyed up until the point (spoiler) you find out some history of Haley that was "questionable consent" at best and rape at worst. From that point in the game, things just felt really unpleasant due to the subject matter and I stopped playing the game.

Review as of v1.1 Final (some spoilers)

I'm really not into incest type stories, but this game caught my eye for a few reasons - it is highly rated and marked complete, a rarity in itself. Additionally the impression I got was that it is an in-depth exploration of the MC-Haley relationship, which was a welcome break I was looking for, coming from myriad harem style games. And finally, Haley's appearance from the screenshots just stuck with me and I had to get to know her.

Haley's character model has to be one of the most attractive to my eyes across the many AVNs I have played. She is a cute red-head with an impossibly slim body, but still possessing attractive curves. The piece de resistance is of course her hairstyle, and that long luscious braid that seems to have a mind of its own across scenes, flying from one position to another, but rarely just resting passively. Her face itself might not be the prettiest across AVNs, but I absolutely fell in love with Haley's overall look.

You can pursue other LIs with Haley alongside, or Haley solo. As soon as Haley's relationship started developing further, I went with her solo route as she was the main attraction for me in the VN. The Sandra character got dumped by MC organically, which I didn't mind as she was kind of boring anyway. Didn't pursue any other LI either, except a brief FWB fling (one scene really) with Diane, which I reverted back to only friends when presented with the choice.

The story and dialog develops well organically for the first 50-60% of the game. The crude banter between Haley and MC does not get grating till the latter half of the game, and successfully communicates the fact that Haley is using it as a defense mechanism. However, this kind of banter has a tendency to overstay its welcome if overused, although it was mostly tolerable here even towards the end.

The biggest weakness of this game is that it loses steam in the last 30-40% (atleast on the Haley solo route) after a very strong first half. MC inexplicably started to act like an asshole to Haley for no apparent reason, before suddenly going back to his normal caring self in the last few scenes. The second half is clearly rushed with some typos and wrong character names for dialogs as well.

In the latter half, MC-Haley scenes seem to get stuck in a groundhog day type repetitive cycle, and all other characters just seem to disappear. Towards the end, you just never get to see the reactions of characters like the two bosses, Diane, Lisa etc. to the MC-Haley relationship. After some heaving and hawing, with the dad character becoming a persistent annoying presence in the last section of the game, the story just ends on an average note.

Still, I really do like a lot of the relationship building with Haley for the first half of the game, and she is also just really very hot imho, so I do recommend this game.

I enjoyed this game a lot. Dialogue was great, story good.

The girls looked good with their "resting faces", but the facial expressions often need a lot of work.

Animation technique was not bad but the choreography and camera angles were too bland for me. Penetration art needs some work. I would say the strongest point of the animator were the blowjobs.

Nice funny game and nice animated scenes and ah well. I enjoyed the game and might play it at a later time to go for another ending but the things aren't too clear while playing. Of course, I always play with walkthroughs and mods as much as possible to get the perfect endings. Don't have enough time for multiple playthroughs. Do give this one a chance another benefit is that it's a completed game so there's that.

First of all I'm pretty sure the corruption tag is misplaced.

Other than that, Haley is probably the best sister you gonna find in any of these sister incest games. She's cute, she's fun, though some people might find her excessive clinginess to be annoying. I personally like Adriana, so the ending feels very half-baked to me. The trauma portion of the story comes out of nowhere and goes nowhere. Nevertheless, Haley is great enough of a character to guarantee a 5 star for this game.

This story is simultaneously one of my favorite, and least favorite games I have played in a while, basically it was a good game that was ruined by a "surprise the main LI was raped" plot.

Its annoying because it wasn't in the tags, and as someone who does not like when an LI is raped in a game it came out of nowhere and dropped my enjoyment from wow this game is 4-5/5 to 1/5 immediately.

Basically Haley was "raped" in the past (she liked it, but since its student-teacher it is technically rape) and basically uses you as a surrogate of her teacher, IE constantly calls you "daddy" pretends that you are the same as the teacher who did it to her, and talks about how she "loves" the guy/ has kinks involving BDSM because of him. Basically he corrupted her and turned her into a psuedo-nympho, and she almost treats you as a replacement for him and thinks about him every time you guys have sex. It ruined the story for me , every time she calls you "daddy" it just disturbed the fuck outa me, but I hate stories with the LI being raped so maybe that's just me.

Fundamentally it should have been in the tags or planned tags so that people have information on what they are going to be playing before they get invested in the story and characters.

Loved the game. The expression on the characters' faces was especially appreciated. The dialogues' were very funny and seemed quite natural.
One thing though, it's really hard to get all the endings, a button to skip to the next choice if there is nothing new in-between would be very nice.
Thanks for your effort.

A VN focused on a brother & sister romance.

You play as the brother of Haley, whom you basically share your life with. She's quirky with a dose of sarcasm, and a pivotal character so your enjoyment hinges on taking a liking to her.

There are several story paths. All of which involve Haley as far as I'm aware. It's either Haley, or Haley plus one other love interest of your choice.

What one might fault it for is that there is lots of day-to-day banter. It comes down to taste whether that is an issue or not. For some it makes things more down-to-earth and relatable, and others might feel like there's too much filler to pad the game's length.


I'd recommend this if you're into (or can overlook) the brother & sister thing; as it's renowned as one of the best in the genre.

Haley's Story is a very nice game focused on brother-sister relationship. There are other love interests in the game but neither of them are as fleshed out and interesting as Haley, the sister. But that doesn't mean they're all expelicity bad. The story is fairly well written and relationship between main character and his sister feels very natural and progresses in a believable way. Game forces you into two different relationships; with your sister and with one of the other girls. Being forced into a relationship with your sister in sister incest game is kinda understandable but second forced relationship is with one of the most generic and bland girls ever. It serves some story purposes i guess but still, being forced into anything against players will is not a good thing. Generally speaking, the game structure and how it handles different girls routes and endings is kinda confusing. For example, if you want to achieve an ending with "girl 3" even if you do everything right with her, you will be not able to do that without forcefully ending "girls 1 and 2" routes first. Its kinda messy because game never tells you anything about this.

Renders are quite solid. Nothing spectacular of course but they're not bad. Animations are solid, they are not 2 frame loops so that's a good thing. Mostly during a scene there is only one animation with different speeds so it wouldn't hurt to have some more diversity, different camera angles etc. Sex scenes themselves are kinda short but at the same time rather rewarding, hot and happening in a realistic way. Characters looks ok, some better than the others. All girls looks fairly realistic and believable. Very nice music.

Overall Haley's Story is a good game and enjoyable experience. It's not amazing or anything but the story and writing are good, relationship between brother and sister is really well done and renders are quite nice. Reaching one ending took me around 12 hours.
