VN - Ren'Py - Leaving DNA [Ep. 4.3a] [Impious Monk]

Story 3/5
I just had to hard a time to connect with this one, alot of lawyer stuff which i found pretty boring, the lack of music or i guess music going on/off constantly dident help things either and its mostly just silent.
I did finish the 3 chapters and it did get a little better after seeing a LI i could be fine with in a relationship but it took to long to get there and was close to quiting more then once since all you see in chapter 1 is big tits which i couldent care less about.

Story feels very kinetic since theres barely any kind of choices and the few you see means nothing, its only related to relationship but nothing story related changes as far as i can see.
Its about MC trying to find hes dad who he has never known or met and hes working with hes Ex on a cold case that could have some relations to hes dads military unit, so as for plot goes i found it a bit boring even with the "plot" that its some secret gang thing where hes dad will most likely be a big player and still alive after faking hes dead and how everyone around MC is somehow connected to it all has been seen so many times before and can be seen coming from miles away.
There are some ok stuff and even a bit of fun in the story as well which is why i have this 3 stars, but all the lawyer and court stuff i dident really care about.

As for the girls, it took a long time before i saw anyone i found even remotely nice, not being into big tits i really dident like the EX dident like her looks either, the childhood friend had a nice enough face but again huge tits, so it will lead you to think its all about huge tit fetish which it kinda isent since you will meet atleast one whos of a more normal build but not untill chapter 2 which is a bit to late.

It fails in the way LIs are introduced to you, first chapter only shows you 2 out of 4 so having to pick a path or close a path with not just one but two before even learning anything about other LIs is annoying and could force a restart, im a one playthourgh guy dont want to restart since its a waste of time, i know you see all 4 in chapter one but only saying hallo dosent give you any clue to who they are......paths should never have to potential to be closed before you meet everyone, which is even more importen in this being none harem.

Girls: 2/5
Its really not a true AVN its more of a VN, it only has 4 LIs and there is a little diversity consider the number of girls, 2 big/huge tits, one normal, one smaller.

Animations 3/5
They are good enough to enjoy but a bit short.

Music 2/5
When it has music its mostly just standard background stuff, but the real issue is that most of the time game is just silent which to me is just a bit boring.

Choices 3/5
I dident see or feel like it had any story related choices besides relationships, so it does feel very very kinetic and choices are rare.

I would say play it for the story and if you dont find that fun then just go to the next game, it is a bit of a slow burn which i dont mind i like relationship build up and none harem games where girls dont trow them selfs on MC.

Some great story writing and excellent example of character development in comparison to most titles on F95. Its not perfect but its darn close.
Its not loaded with sex scenes and is more of a story than most VNs, so fapaholics beware, but the few scenes I have seen were good enough.

A nice change of pace.

Nice artwork, there is plenty of humour to balance out some heavy emotional baggage and you do feel for the characters.

One of those VNs where you will likely want to play through several times with different choices.

Great story, great renders ,great characters and lis so this is a must play for mystery fans all around and play for fun on free time
Great choice of music too
My favorite after superhuman which I also recommend
Please play

A dark gritty law & order story with personal intrigue mixed into it. The dev loves to leave things on a cliffhanger which I do not mind because I know what comes next will wrap it up nicely. If you like a good mystery story that is well written and produced then this is the game for you.

This is super easy to give 5 stars. I could tell it was going there right from the start. The writing is excellent, the storytelling too. The plot revolves around a very well done murder mystery. The girls are interesting, attractive, and have fully-fledged personalities. This isn’t a game about putting your dick in as many holes as possible as much as possible; it’s a well-written story in which the protagonist can get some action with hot women. If that might interest you, then play this game.
The plot is heavy, if the warning, or the fact that it’s about a murder mystery, didn’t alert you to that. It’s very well done and respectful and emotional and yes I cried a few times already.
It’s also remarkable that a protagonist so different from me – tall, handsome, athletic, hard-working, charming, and emotionally distant - can be so relatable, but I think that’s a reflection of how well done the writing is.
Downsides? There’s not a lot of sex yet, only 4 canonical scenes + two dreams, but it’s only the third episode. The scenes are good, although (as always) I wish they had more first person.
It deals with very heavy shit, so it’s not for everyone, but you’re warned about that in advance.
Highly recommend if you care about writing or plot or anything more than a horde of random people fucking.

Damn, this game is really good, the work and dedication of the creators is clear.
Looking forward to the next chapters
Is it difficult for you to choose one of the girls because they are all so well written and have good chemistry with the protagonist and each one in their own way

¬EP.3 Review

Writing is amazing compared to other games.

Models are also very good, some unique from the usual ones we see.

Characters are properly written. They are unique to one another, and there's not an overwhelming amount of them to bore you.

An easy 5*, can't wait for the next episode.

Episode 3 update. Leaving DNA.

It is the easiest thing in the world to give this Virtual Novel (VN) a 5 rating.

It should be considered the standard framework for VNs.

The writing is good. As good or better than most TV format daytime soap operas, dramas and comedies in the past 60 years.

As with many VNs you are given paths to follow involving different love interests (L.I.), but not so many as to be unmanageable over the long haul.

The characters have real depth to connect the story. As a viewer you can connect with them: what they are thinking; their motivation.

The story makes you feel the history and challenges of the main character. Their victories. Their failures.

There is no reason the author shouldn't be able to create many more stories after finishing Leaving DNA. They have mastered this art form.

Leaving DNA: fun, entertaining and highly recommended.

Damn, this game hits hard. When I choose what to play, I look for something that can evoke genuine emotions, compassion, sadness, joy, excitement, and this game has all of that.
Of course, we understand what kind of site this is and what kind of games are presented here. Sometimes you want to play something easy with sexy girls and lots of sex, but the games that are memorable are the games where you can believe in what is happening, where you feel like a part of what is on the screen, this game is just like that.
This visual novel has gorgeous renders, characters you get attached to, a protagonist you believe in and sympathize with, and perfectly chosen music. All of this combines to give you a game with some of the best written characters on this site, and an interesting story that you want to live with them to the end.

It hit me so hard when the protagonist finally met the special someone he thought he didn't have. That's the kind of emotion I'm talking about, and that's what makes this game one of the best on this site, for me at least.

Quite easily one of, if not the single most well written game on this site. Simple main characters that feel relatable, but that have a fantastic depth to them, moving dialogue that has led me to not skip a single line, and incredibly beautiful renders. While the development takes a while, it's completely justified due to the quality. If you want a game with a strong story and compelling themes, read this.

Impressively strong writing, definitely in a tier of its own within the adult VN genre. It isn't often I can say I don't skip dialogue for an adult game. The porn stuff is also quite good but it's the story and characterization that is the standout. The focus on only 4 LIs is also a strong point as they're all quite interesting.

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.
