Depends on what you mean by video replays. Use unren and you get pics and videos. Within the game some achievements allow you to replay scenes/events/appointments. No, off the top of my head, I do not know which ones. Another reason to play the game.

Well, I've played from the beginning, skipping several releases.
This time without cheats (almost).
It's impressive the addiction I get. And also the content. I think that after three days I still don't reach 50%.
The game has no bugs for me. It happens from time to time it closes unexpectedly, so I recommend saving before each scene (A quick save button would be very useful).
These crashes could be due to my computer (a laptop some years old already). The most difficult part was the binoculars scene that told me that I couldn't open certain images, always different and I couldn't move forward. I could pass it saving before each sequence and restarting the game.
The game itself represents a constant challenge. And that's very good. The clues give an idea but don't say anything explicitly, which gives more immersion to the player who has to look for different options.
It also has good humor scenes and the renders are very good, as well as the quality and variety of the lewd scenes. There's a big improvement as development progresses.
In conclusion, it's a great game for gamers, perhaps not for those looking for something linear and uncomplicated.
I'll try to play it more often, very good game.

For all the new players who are having trouble getting Amy's stats to go up. You have to do quests to get her to each level. Start by working out with her.
That said, I had trouble getting it started and have played the game all the way through many times. Of course, in the prebeta, I used a saved game and Amy was in her sling bikini which doesn't have all of the gym actions available, so it was more difficult to find.
Darkhound1 feels that if you start from scratch, you'll stumble upon Amy's quests naturally. I think there should be a nudge in that direction.
One of the suggestions he offered was to have Amy say something about working out together at the gym while you walk on the beach or relax on the sunbed. I like this, but it might be easy to miss the dialogue on the beach or at the pool. As Bantry often mentions, reading is hard.
I suggested Amy send an email in the morning inviting you to join her at the gym for a workout, but that seems too spoon-fed.
Does anyone have any other ideas of how to gently nudge players in the right direction to start the Amy quests? The plan is to have these quests for every girl on the island, so the confusion is going to multiply.
What if Amy offers you a saved game?
What if Jennifer explains that saved games don't help?
Where is the sarcasm button for those last two suggestions?

A cyan pill will help with having sex with Ivy. If your endurance is high, you will keep your boner under control. Taking a cyan pill will make you have an erection. A cyan pill is available from the doctor for 3 sperm samples with high lust while on the blue pill.

Examples of the two schools of thought on playing games. I'm of the school similar to UncleVT where hints are fine. When I was writing the Guide, I didn't want to turn it into a step-by-step walkthrough. Rather, I felt that some of the initial instructions were vague (like what some of the buttons do on the action menu for example) and they needed an explanation. darkhound1 has improved on the GUI and included a great deal of information on the screen about what is going on at any given time in the game. Much more than many of the other games I have played. But, alas, people still won't access it or read it. That and they seem to be afraid to save their game multiple times, even though it is a simple 'right-click' or access the 'quick-save' button by sliding their mouse to bottom left of the screen. You may call me an old, snarky, curmudgeon or whatever else you think is apt, but I still maintain that if you don't want to play the game, you just want to look at the pictures or videos. If that is the case, use [unren.bat] or visit PornHub.
All that being said, Puppet Master has done an outstanding job with his FAQ. It is a close to a step-by-step walkthrough as you can get. Yet, the same questions are asked repeatedly. Most frustrating for me, is when it is a repeat of a question asked numerous times before and often just a few post above on the same page. Is there a solution or compromise? Probably not. If I ever do update the Guide, I will reluctantly include the spoilers that Puppet Master has compiled. Sadly, I suspect it won't change anything, but we at least tried.
So go ahead and continue to ask the same questions over and over again. Or request saves or complain that there is too much of a grind. Don't forget to complain about all the huge boobs and that there is no premise or story line to the game. Don't check out darkhound1's Patreon page regularly or become a patron. Finally, please don't complain when you don't get an instant answer or the one you get you don't agree with.

On the Amy quest as soon as I clicked her character in the gym to initiate anything(dialog or action) she opened up with her comments about the bench press. That dialog could be held outstanding and then reiterated as a reminder every time you click on the character even if you are going to do something else. It would be a continual reminder until you start the quest with that character. Obviously, once you are into the quest the comment can be turned off.
In the case of Amy's quest I only got that work out comment only once. When I did that my strength was at 3 so I knew it would have been futile to start the quest at that time. I wonder what would have happened to the quest if I had tried to start off spotting her at strength 3. Would that blow the whole thing forever? If not, how does one re-initiate it later when you are in better shape to actually be able to do it? I have no idea. I missed an Yvette pull up appointment and never got that back so it got blown forever. If there was a way to re-start that, I don't know what it was.
I'm not sure where I am now with Amy. Was I supposed to immediately start the quest when she made that comment? Is that one blown now since I didn't? After a lot of work I have strength at 9 and my other stats are good so I am about ready, finally, to try and start the quest. I have only one idea what to try regarding that. I will simply try to invite her to work out on the bench with me spotting her and see what happens. If that doesn't fire it off I have no clue what to try after that.

I think darkhound1 wants Amy to say the same things at the beach and pool as she does at the gym. So they would be repeatable after a fashion.
Only the weightlifting requires a strength check. Pecs, yoga & pull-ups do not. A strength pill could help you with the weightlifting as well.
Yvette will eventually reschedule a blown appointment for her pull-ups training.

Neither. Save is your friend. Bet each hand to the max. If it goes against you reload from save.

this game is great, first post here,
an idea for future;
could there ever be an option for a random girl to come to the island when talking to the receptionist?
might be fun to send someone home and not know who you will bump into in the hallway

HI is a game that every girl will treat you like the most important person on the island and you still should treat every girl with respect. This is the best enjoyment that I could have from an adult game.

The quick load and saves buttons are available on the bottom left hand corner when you moise over.Well, I've played from the beginning, skipping several releases.

As I recall the keys in the lower left corner are simply the classic load and save.
Which can also be invoked by simply pressing the right mouse key anywhere.
Dont think quick save/load is enabled in HI (could have missed it of course)
Can use Unren.bat to do it (usual disclaimer here about modifying games on own risk!).
It has a menu option which will add it to the game.
Will create a file called unren-quick.rpy
Contents.
init 999 python:
try:
_default_keymap.keymap['K_F5'] = QuickSave()
_default_keymap.keymap['K_F9'] = QuickLoad()
except NameError:
renpy.config.default_keymap['K_F5'] = QuickSave()
renpy.config.default_keymap['K_F9'] = QuickLoad()
Which will bind it to F5 and F9 keys.
