Review as of v0.62
Visuals
They’re OK, nothing is going to blow your hair back in terms of the character models or the renders overall.
Poses are lazy, and it’s pretty evident the dev is just taking the characters and placing them front and center with no depth, using the environment as a backdrop essentially. These begin to feel cyclic, and boring.
First lewd scene sees the characters with plenty of privacy, but they keep their clothes on? Seriously, wtf?
Animations exist, they’re relatively fluid and not bad. It’s a shame that’s overshadowed by inferior renders/textures etc.
Characters
Sylvia has an attractive body but she’s not very pretty. Typical wife/mother figure. Considering she’s one of two main LIs I can’t believe how boring she is.
Iris is pretty generic, both in appearance and demeanor. LOTS of missed opportunities with her.
Story/Dialog
The writing style of this one is odd to me. It’s cold, emotionless, and nearly everything is just a blunt statement. All text appears italicized, which is also odd; generally italics symbolize inner monologue/thoughts or narration.
The initial setup of the backstory/plot, while easy to understand, fall a bit flat. We don’t know why the family are slaves, we don’t know why their mistress chose them, etc.
Minimal lewd content. Disappointing. In fact, dev goes out of their way to avoid showing it to us!
As you play through, each day feels like a repeat; there’s just nothing exciting happening.
Other
This is one of the few AVNs I’ve played where you can’t change the MC’s name/set it at the beginning. Disappointing, as this is such a standard feature anymore.
There is music present, but the choices are honestly bad. Adds no value to the game. It also...like...shifts between the same 2 tracks in the same scene? It’s just bad. Dev has no clue about what kind of emotion you want to evoke out of a given scene, and clearly hasn’t circled back to actually play their own game to see how distracting it is to constantly alternate between generic tracks. Play this one on mute.
Final Thoughts
I can’t recommend this one. It’s rough. The story concept is fine; great, even. But 100% of it feels rushed and unpolished. I’d give it 1 star for the concept, and generously another star because overall it’s not among the worst I’ve played. It’s just not good. I wasn’t able to finish the end of this update, and even with skipping a lot of dialog, I tried.
