VN - Ren'Py - Leaving DNA [Ep. 3] [Impious Monk]

Beautiful renders, dialog is very solid. within 30 seconds and seeing Jamie, I was in.


Only 2 minor critics: Non-English lines, it'd be cool to get a bracketed dub so I don't need to hit up google translate

and the other is I need more Jamie and Malena. Like however much you WERE planning to put in, double triple it

Really excited to see where the story is headed, and what you have coming up next. Keep up the great work!

This is currently the best of all the available games. I truly believe in its future and hope that it can continue to develop without hindrance. I will try to support it once I am able, as this is legitimately an unique piece of art.

It's pretty simple: If you want to play a very high quality AVN, that is sensibly, very well written, by adults to adults, you should play it.
Leaving DNA is just all around great, from the LI's to the graphics, story, everything is really fucking good.

Take the warning at the start seriously, as the game does tackle serious topics such as sexual assault and murder, but the author does a magnificent job in not letting these heavy topics bring the mood of the story down.
Everything is really well balanced and works really well, and if you like the first 20 minutes of play, you will enjoy the rest, given that Impious Monk seem to have a well thought and structured story already planned, and so far the consistency between chapters is very strong.

TLDR: Serious game, real fucking good. If you are looking for a good story with adult elements, you should play it.

Also, Jamie is an incredible LI, all around 10/10.

An amazing ADULT visual novel, handling ADULT topics in an ADULT manner. This is probably the best written AVN I've ever read. the graphics are great and I love the fact that each LI looks different with different facial and body type. For those who look look for a quick fap, look elsewhere but if you're interested in great and intriguing story with lovable but imperfect characters this is the AVN for you.

the renders are beautiful and different looking than the other similar types of game and i love me some mystery games so this is perfect. hoping for more frequent updates but i understand . keep up the good work and good luck with the project

• Excellent writing
• the best dialogues I have seen in any AVN
• interesting and unique LIs
• nice romancing pace
• good renders.
• good amount of content per update

This is one of the best AVNs out there!

Wow, realistic women faces? First two chapters of a slow burn with no sex dream? An MC who is an actual adult with a job who cares about something besides getting laid? What is happening?

Story is compelling, women are likeable (some even adorable) and the renders are good.

Look... if you're here for a quick nut, close the tab, this isn't the one But if you have played a few Ren'Py games and you're interested in something slightly different, check this out. Obviously the payoff will ultimately determine whether the time this game asks of you is worthwhile, but so far it is very promising.

I didn't think this game was worth the time I spent downloading it. I didn't like any of the character designs, thought the 3d cg was mostly so-so: odd lighting, odd proportions, just generally meh. I hated the story set-up and found it unbearably dull.

Its got a decent amount of polish, it's not a janky game or buggy or anything like that, and judging by the reviews here--it's liked by some. So if it seems interesting maybe worth a shot? But yeah, definitely not for me.

Nice models mostly. Comedy while a bit cringe had some good moments, especially our Armenian buddy. First time I had Armenians in a game, that's new.
Our Armenian ex-girlfriend sometimes looks weird, especially her face. She's not my type really. Jamie is my #1 interest but the Asian lawyer (Erin?) is a close #2 and I hope we'll get some real action outside of those dreams.
The story is spreading a bit too wide for me so something like a roadmap or a journal for the player would be nice to have.
Also I love the sad backstory of our MC. Those foster parents were a joke, clearly it was the woman who did not want the MC, not even looking into our eyes.

We finally have it! An AVN written by someone who understands empathy and how normal people having normal social interactions work!

What did it cost?

A conversation about arbitrary powerscaling in the MCU. BatChest!

Regardless, I never thought I'd be interested in another police procedural, but here we are. The little character vignettes, like with Aghavni in the car, are just great.

If you don't mind some cheese and the character models aren't too weirdly proportioned for you, it's fun and worth playing.

I saw that people were mentioning this game in a really positive light, so I decided to try it. I will admit to being a bit sceptical at first as we all have different expectations after all and tastes.

Having played through both episodes I can honestly say I am impressed.
The positives far outweigh any negatives.

First, let me just say thank you devs for writing an actual adult AVN with grown up characters, dialogue and plotline. I am so sick of all the teen/college games with horny moronic guys and their horse dicks. It gets real old, fast.

With this one we have an ever deepening crime story that has mature characters that are actually believable. The MC is actually a decent guy who has his demons and is slowly facing them. His childhood friend Jamie is totally smitten with him and she is so freaking cute!
Even the MC's ex is a nice and very believable character. It all just feels genuine and interesting.

The story is quite slow burn at first, but with characters you like, that's not a problem. It hooks you in and once the story opens up more., you find yourself wondering how deep the rabbit hole really goes.

The gfx are beautiful. They really are top quality renders. Characters look great and the women are not barbie type clones. They are pretty in their own way but not with over the top model looks. It's great seeing their personalities emerging for us to find out their real feelings for the MC.

I don't really have any negatives to mention apart from there is not really a lot of choices as yet. Much of it feels fairly linear and at first I started to wonder if I had picked a kinetic novel because it was a good while before any decision came up.

If you are looking for lewd stuff, then you will be disappointed as there is very little. If like me, you don't care about that stuff and love storytelling over shagging then it won't matter.

I find Jamie's legs look a bit weird...silly I know but she has really skinny and strange looking lower legs....like the proportion is off or something.
I kept looking at them and thinking "She looks weird!" haha. She has lovely features though.

Overall though this is a fantastic AVN to play if you like a gritty, crime type story with likeable characters and an MC with strong morals.

I can give this 5 stars with no hesitation. Totally worth a try.

Really looking forward to the next update!

So far Leaving DNA is truly excellent in every ways.
The story is interesting, the case investigation is done very well.

The characters are great and very well written, the MC is also very good and has his own issues instead of being "yet another thirsty creep" and the interactions between people and MC are actually believable.

It's a very slow burn, but the writing and the story progression really makes it interesting.
The text prompt (when you want to point something in some dialogue with your detective-ex or with a suspect) was a bit infuriating as the game does not recognize much words .

Hopefully Leaving DNA can keep up the interest it bring, 5 stars top AVN.

I was a bit skeptical when I started playing fully expecting a cliche adult game but I was pleasantly surprised. The story and character development is amazing. The pace is just perfect to keep me hooked to the story line. First time I played an adult game for the story rather than adult content. To be honest there is hardly any adult scenes till end of chapter 2 of the game.

The renders are beautiful. Each characters look unique enough. My only criticism is in a few occasions some female character was dressed unnaturally lewd, which seemed a bit out of character considering the ethos of this game. Example Jaime's dress during the museum date with MC.

I eagerly wait for the upcoming chapters beautifully progressing the story and branching for each character. Adult scenes should be there where it feels natural not forced.

I heartily thank the devs for their effort and thoughtfulness.

This is a contender to be a future Top3 AVN.

Not the usual fuckfest and instead a game with a interresting story and a mature MC and LI's.

The relationship dynamics are amazing, not only between the MC and the LI's, his normal group of friends is awesome too and there are even other male's who arent morons/antagonist or whatever, they are just good and mature friends.

Jamie is adorable but even tho i wasnt this big of a fan of the models from the other LI's at first sight, they all grew on me.

Give this AVN a try, your missing out otherwise

Everything about this game is excellent, the renders and art is some of the finest. The different girls are diverse and gorgeous, not like all the cookie cutter models that are so tiring to see. The writing is very commendable and the direction of the MC is immersive and very intriguing.

This is easily one of the best new games on this site and I hope the developer continues on the path that they have created. The writing is more in line with a good book then what you would usually find with a visual novel, the characters are developed, and the story is interesting. To top it off, the renders and the women are beautiful. They are unique and they look real. Either way, this could turn out to be one of the greats.

Awesome game!!
The story is very good, the Li`s are great!
Not often you find games with stories so interesting you actually wanna read the dialouges. Keep it up!
Really looking forward to next episode

Awesome story my dude,
Really enjoying it so far,
Not just garbage or mediocre story to sell some sex renders.
Ofc the visuals are awesome too, at points it felt like a good plot and I was watching a movie too.
5 stars, like it/ love it so far, need more

First, the Ladies, very well written characters so good you forget to ask where is the action here. The dialogue between John and the ladies moves the story well.
Second, pacing is well done. Does not drag .
Third, well I'm hoping a harem romance but one can hope, its that good.

Tha making of a classic.

The lonely hero, the interesting stories, few love interests and the ocasional rushed sex scene...

Everything is great except the one sex scene where 2 grown ups with careers go to a back alley to fuck in the hood of the car. Makes no sense. But them having sex made sense. this is the part where most get wrong and the monk gets it right. Just try it. This is a well written VN.
