Unity - Completed - Lockdown 2024 [v1.20.8] [480 Games]

Not sure what people are smoking with the ratings.
The game is good, plenty of content, fun gameplay and some gamification.
Writing could use some upgrading and possibly some more events before jumping straight into H scenes, but apart from that it's a laugh.

This just isent my type of game, story is vanilla nothing special, sandbox is as boring as they get same for mini games but atleast you can skip those, but all the clicking to move around the house just gets to annoying and boring.

The plot wasent my thing either, having a mother trying to steal your money and yet you treat her nice and fuck her, its just pointless and not fun in any way.
MCs dick growing into something way to big is also just boring and seen before in many games, wish they would make it a bit more real.

Also feel like this should have a kinetic tag since you dont have any options or choices you just follow the quests and thats it, you will fuck them all even if you dont want to, i am not in to grannys what so ever so it was a huge turn-off, MC is a boring virgin and will be for a huge part of the game.

Also if you arent into big tits, simply just dont play this, theres only a single girl with small tit and the rest is big, not being a fan of big tits you will run into one turn-off after the other.

Music is meh just background stuff not mood setting or anything.
Animations arent bad but not anywhere close to great either.

v0.13.7 (game is technically done, but not really)

Want to start off by mentioning I don't quite understand the low rated reviews here. The current version is WAY better now than it was last year. Anyways, onto the review.

Here we have a game called Lockdown 2024. If you were to guess this game's about a certain pandemic that happened between 2020 to 2022 you are technically correct! Give yourself a pat on the back.

Game starts off with MC's father in January 2020 where he went for a trip to China. Father is immediately killed off by Covid-19 Fortunately for the MC he left the family with good wealth.

MC returns home (as is tradition with most games here) as is greeted by his Step-Mom Devon (name can be changed) who immediately goes into full Karen Mode bossing him around with house chores. Once passed her mean-face look holy shit what a fuckable body she has. Couldn't wait to bang her. Nice touch on her business suit (reminded me of WWE's Lana)

Soon into the story she holds a Family Meeting and due to the virus the house is into lockdown leaving the MC to share the house with 7 hot looking women (including Grandma). Omg the horror.

We meet the MC's older (step)sister Amber (who is the other star of this game imo) the hot dark redhead in the pic, and once again as is tradition she's a total bitch to the MC. Luckily Amber's lady friend is quickly attracted to him then we soon find them having Sexy Time.

Emma is the MC's younger (step) sister (the young blonde) where she & the MC are pretty close (as is tradition). She too comes with her own friend, and before you know it Sexy Time isn't far away.

Let's talk about Grandma. She is a naughty one!! Knew right away he was a virgin, and by the time she was done she turned him into The Sex Monster that would make Peter North blush. So yes it's Grandma that unleashed Pandora's Box on the 6 other women. As for their Sexy Time? Fap Worthy. Won't spoil the details. Dive in to find out.

Story's pretty easy to follow. Uncover clues, go from there.

Like many here yes the mini games can be tedious. It took me more than 20 minutes to build the bed. Instructions weren't fully clear, had to scramble all over the house (which contains 4 floors btw, not including basement & roof) to find all the pieces. By the time I was done wasn't in the mood anymore for Sexy Time. Saved the game, turned it off.

Had this game have a proper thorough Walkthrough Guide this could've been avoided, or saved me a lot of time. Good news is as of the current version there is a mode that can skip these mini games. Wish I had that earlier. Known Unity users probably won't mind most of the mini games as the other projects weren't as bad or tedious.

Not much music in this game, including during Sexy Time. Set the mood bro. Feels weird fapping while I listen to my metal music in the background. Kind of awkward for me.
Animations are a bit off, even during Sexy Time. Shouldn't be an issue for a Gaming PC.

Speaking of Sexy Time there are LOTS of them, and most of them are Fap Worthy. During their sluttiest I thought for sure we were going to see some Water Sport action (likely with Grandma), but it didn't happen. What a shame (could've also made it optional).

By the end of this game the MC has the body of an adonis, and a horse cock that no women can tame this stallion.

Pros
- Fap Worthy animated sex scenes
- Grandma is a dirty girl
- Everything about Amber
- Updates comes often
- Comes with replay Gallery
- No NTR
- No issues with Spelling or Grammar

Cons
- It's by Unity
- Cockzilla
- Can't save before Sexy Time
- Walkthrough Guide isn't thorough
- Lighting makes some items hard to find
- No Water Sports
- The "Ow! Ow! Ow!" bug

Verdict: DOWNLOAD IT!! Yes it's by Unity, but comes with lots of Fap Worthy Sex Scenes. No further comments needed. Cheers

Very good game. Absolutely doesn't deserve it's bad rating (2.5 as of now).
- Beautiful women, 7 of them. You'll fuck all of them.
- Animations for those who need them.
- Competent dialogues.
- Chemistry between characters.
- The road to having sex with each woman doesn't feel neither too fast nor too slow.
- Sex during dialogues is good.
- Good amount of content.
- Puzzles can be completely skipped. You can turn on hints that basically hold your hand during each quest. Except Blueberry Lube, had to search forums for this.
- No grinding.

Bad things?
- Although hero grows over the course of the game his 3D model in his room stays the same. Just a small thing.
- I'm personally not a fan of GIANT 12 INCH HORSEDICKS that MC have in some porn games. Unfortunately, it's one of these games.
- Got a bug during 2 mini-games. Nothing critical, but had to reload once because one of these bugs. Save often.
- Inventory is very inconvenient to use, because at the beginning of the game I search whole house and tried to take everything I could. As result I always had around 20 items and had to click "left" or "right" through all of them.
- Some of things you have to do are completely non-obvious. Good thing I was using hints.
- Devon (Mom) only has 2 actual (vaginal+) sex scenes, and she's my favorite.

v0.10.1

This is a VN / point & click adventure about..... except it's not a VN at all. this is a sandbox /point and click/puzzle game. not currently tagged as such and gods and mods know why.
not seeing the tag when i downloaded had me thinking that the choice to play through as a pure VN would be there. it wasn't.

visually this is very good and the writing is not bad. if it WAS a VN then it would probably rate higher than what it currently is by me and indeed others, but the developer decided to add mini games and the whole horrible point and click system to break up the content and create a very average player experience.

some games do indeed work as a sandbox/point and click game, this just doesn't seem like one of them. take out the moving here and going there and you have a VN so if it was removed nothing at all is lost.

mini games are ok as they turn a VN into an actual game and being skippable, don't really have a negative impact on player experience as you have the choice.

the weakest part, sandbox aside, is by far the unimaginative plot. one bloke locked in a house with x amount of women yada yada yada
it really is flogging a dead horse at this point. as welcome as another big brother remake.

so despite the very good visuals, this is dragged down into mediocrity by poor design and a plot good for a yawn for me

Review for Lockdown 2024 v1.15.0:

Summary: 3.5/5 - Lacks polish and feels like it wasn't well-planned, but if you're a player that likes sandboxes and minigames in your adult games, you'll probably enjoy it.

Story: 3/5 - Mostly a vanilla stepcest/incest story. A little bit of originality with the mother/stepmother's therapist behaviors, but there are a lot of plot WTFs, and now with the story basically over, the writer throws in a curveball that is an off-the-rails WTF that apparently will be addressed in a follow-on game. The ending that players can already choose to see is a big let-down, too. Development isn't over, though, so maybe some of the holes will get filled in before the game is complete.

Writing: 4/5 - Writing is OK, there are some spelling/grammar errors, but they're not terrible, and the writing is not cringy. There are a few naming errors that can be confusing. Sometimes Naomi is called "Em's' Friend", Jasmin is called "Amber's Friend" long after they've been introduced. Maria is called "Abuela", which is just a missed Spanish-English translation.

Renders: 3.5/5 - Renders are a little grainy and don't seem like the resolution is very high. The models are pretty and help make up for it.

Animations: 3.5/5 - Animations are decent, but all of them have some jerkiness or unnatural-looking aspect to them. The dynamic 2D animations of the MC walking around in the MC's bedroom room are poor. They're even worse when you consider the model for the MC never changes, but the MC's appearance changes drastically over the course of the game [Edit: the MC's model while in his room was updated in v1.16.1]. Still, it's not clear why the MC is animated walking around in his room and nowhere else in the home, at least not after the minigame at the very beginning of the game.

Sound: 3/5 - The music sometimes boring and sometimes terrible, but it always made me want to turn it off. The terrible parts are when it strangely drifts back and forth from left to right channel like somebody was playing with the balance knob while recording. Sex sounds are good, but they don't match what's actually happening on screen most of the time, so they're somewhat wasted.

Content: 4/5 - The amount of content is good, but I don't count the minigames. The quality of the lewd scenes isn't excellent, but they're better than average. However, the build-up to most of the lewd scenes is weak.

Gameplay: 2/5 - I find the gameplay to be awful. The only reason I give it a 2/5 instead of a 1/5 is because the in-game hints can help get you through most of it. Here are some examples:

• The sandbox navigation is poor. Hotspots are sometimes nearly invisible, sometimes laggy, and frequently overlap with other user-interface objects. Even the arrows to move left/right/turnaround are tedious and inconsistent. Navigation is also really inconsistent from room to room and even between rooms that are identical. For example, the 2nd and 3rd floor hallways are identical, the renders for them are nearly identical, but they have a different interface for the bathroom/bedroom door interactions.
• The inventory is tedious to use. First, it pops up automatically at the top of the screen making it difficult to interact with other hotspot/UI items that happen to be at the top of the screen. Second, it displays 11 items at a time, but players can have around 50 items in their inventory and scrolling all the way to the left or the right item at a time to find something is painful. Third, items the MC picks up seem to randomly appear at either the beginning or the end of the inventory, although the changelog says this is now fixed in v1.17.0.
• Item crafting is frustrating and inconsistent. There is a "Build" app on the phone, but most things are crafted by just combining them directly in the inventory or in the room. There's really no reason to have both.
• Some interactions are really non-intuitive. E.g., during one mission, you have to give the uniform to the maid. The maid is in her bedroom, but the door is locked so you can't open it, and you can't knock. However, if open your inventory and drag the maid uniform onto the door, the maid opens the door. WTF?
• The majority of gameplay is just searching the mostly-empty house and garden looking for the character you're supposed to interact with next.
• There are times when the bathrooms are occupied even though every person in the house is accounted for and not in the bathrooms.
• Most of the time, the house is empty with only one character you can see or interact with even though there are 7 women living in the house 24hrs/day and they aren't allowed to leave the house.
• The minigames are OK. They're not totally braindead, but some of them, like lockpicking, need a tutorial.
• No feature to view dialogue history in case you want to re-read something or accidentally click past some dialogue.

Playability/Bugs: Not counting this in the overall rating since I don't know if they still exist, but here are the bug I encountered.

• When playing the basketball minigame, the buttons to start and shoot, etc. never appeared. I got frustrated pressing every key and clicking everywhere trying to figure out how to play when it turned out to be a bug/glitch that was solved by restarting the game.
• When doing the jigsaw puzzle in the living room, the entire game froze and I had to kill the program and restart it.
• Starting with v0.14.2, the game would pause for about 3 seconds after any event triggered before starting the event. It wasn't like that before. This was using an i9-12900K gaming rig.

Version: 0.8.6

This game is another example of why I don't use the review system here as a basis for whether or not I try a game on this site. Granted, it was my first time playing it, so I don't know what it was like early on, but in it's current state, I found that I thoroughly enjoyed it!

Pros:
- All the girls were very attractive and sexy with unique personalities, most of which I found very likeable, or at least interesting.
- Animations were good or, in some cases, excellent (later in the game.)
- The mission hint system made it to where I never felt like I didn't know what to do next.
- The story, while not 100% original, had a couple of surprises that I didn't see coming, and was interesting enough to keep me engaged.
- The H-scenes, with few exceptions, were pretty damn hot!

Cons:
- the lighting of some renders and animation could be improved, so that they're not so dark.
- the navigation system, while serviceable, is a little clunky at times.

Overall, I'd rate Lockdown 2024 a solid 4.5 rating, and would highly recommend it.

Based on its very low rating I was hesitant to try this one.
Yet, at the present state it has nothing of pointed "downsides".
At the game start the player has an option to set up difficulty, and if he wanna near VN experience (all puzzles, and similar things are solved instantly) he can do so.
Apart from that, it isnt grindfest, it has free roam and multiple tasks per game day. At the easy settings the walkthrough is super detailed as well, so i had absolutely no problems solving all tasks. And it does have quite a lot of content , and hot scenes already. Seven chicks, and the best ones are still to be conquered properly.
A lot more could be said, yet the game overview is pretty much on point, and if you are looking for similar settings (one dude, multiple women, including girls, milfs and even gilf) you are for a treat here.
I would rate it 4 stars, yet seeing all those unjustified one-star ratings, it gets 5 stars.
Btw those "reviewers" should either change their "reviews" as the game has changed a lot, or those should be removed.

Review of 0.7.3.

I only played this version, but looking through the previous reviews, it would appear that the dev has addressed a lot of the concerns.

If you enable it, the current version of the game includes a pretty nice task/hint system that, at a general level, lets you know what to do next. If you're still stuck there's an additional level of hint that directly states where you have to go and what you need to do. And the mini-games are now entirely skippable.

So with that out of the way, I had a pretty good time with this one. It's a pure sandbox, so if you hate sandboxes you won't want to play this, but if you like or don't mind the format there's a lot of fun to be had here.

Decent story, decent renders.
Mini-games / puzzles however totally dominate the story telling and game play - and not in a good way. Normally this wouldn't be bad, other than most of the time you kinda know what your looking for, but you still have to go looking for things in various random locations. Weird/new clickable areas that seem to become active part way through also add to the frustration. It desperately needs a thorough walk through (bless the soul that bites that bullet) or a way to bypass the grind.

Review for 0.7.3

Lockown 2024 has several redeeming features and several negative features.

At the start of the game you are immediately confronted with the first puzzle: Constructing a hand cart. This one puzzle sets the mood for the rest of the game because the solution is less than obvious. Instead of using game hints and basic knowledge to complete the puzzle, you instead have to click randomly around the area and in your inventory to eventually finish the puzzle. It should be fairly obvious: get a screwdriver, drag it onto the cart or w/e, construct the cart, and Done. Instead, it winds up being a mess of spam clicking everything and confusion. It might make sense for the developer that made the game and thus already knows the solution to everything, but for the player, it's not quite as clear. This experience generally follows you through the game, with some areas being relatively clear, and some areas even worse.

For the good, the story isn't half bad. I won't spoil it, but the MC starts at the bottom of the food chain and works his way up. It's an underdog story with a mystery to work out.

Renders are good as well. Some are a bit blurry, for example, the outdoor basketball... field? Pitch? W/e, it's a bit blurry. Animations are well done. Transiting from room to room is done instantly, while in the MC's room the MC actually "walks" to different parts of his room similar to the game "Adventure of Willy D". I'm not quite sure why it's like this, but it's there.

All in all, it's an Average ™ game that could get better or worse depending on how it goes. People who really like puzzles might like it more, but I don't so it's average., fite me.

XOXO

Summer Love

Story is a fucking blast but i guess this dev is just a good writer and not good at other things at all.
Mc,well typical loser,even though it's becoming a common things in nowadays avn,i ain't accepting that shit as regular.
Renders are okay,characters personality are shit
Overall good avn but not for me

I'm not trying to be so negative but this game looked good right up until playing it. The mini games were absolutely horrible. The MC really doesn't have to be shown as a complete idiot, though that seems to be the trend these days. I don't like to use this word, but the dialogue with him is cringy.

The only bright point as of yet is the character design, it looks pretty good so far.

0.4.2

Feedback - The Options screen just gives you a black screen with no options. But worse yet, no way to exit out of the Options screen. So you are required to Force Quit out of the game and start it over.

Feedback - The game shows a 32-35 year old man laying in bed, and that confused me because I thought the player was a young "son" type of character. But later after the intro, you do play as a young male.

Feedback - Having the dialogue "type" itself out is no fun. It would be nice if there was an option for the text to be immediately displayed, because this "typing" makes the game drag out soooooo slow and makes it boring.

Feedback - Because of the dialogue "typing" itself out, I couldn't control the speed. I spammed the left and right mouse buttons (they do the same thing) and the game was still unbearably slow, making me want to just uninstall the game right away without playing it.

Feedback - There are no features like Save, Fast Forward, Rewind, Text Speed, etc.

Feedback - ESC key does nothing while in the game or in the Main Menu screens (like Options).

Feedback - The renders look bad. When you are finally in the game and can move around, you are in a bright garage with a lot of objects, none of which have shadows. Very bad lighting so there isn't any realism or beauty to the graphics at all.

Feedback - When the player walks into a room, it's just a cardboard cutout of him in a walking animation and then the cardboard cutout of him is slowly moved around the screen. Very unimpressive.

I give up. The only good thing about the game is being able to define relationships and names. And after you get into the game, I guess there is stuff to do like interact with objects, solve puzzles, and unlock rooms and stuff. But I've seen games that do that a lot better, even 3DCG Ren'Py kinetic novels. I couldn't get excited enough for this game to actually want to pay attention to the intro or to actually explore the garage.

I had typed an in depth review on how painstakingly frustrating this game is, but for some reason my browser just shut off, and I dont have the strength to write it again... so in short
A good story drowned in absolutely shit sandbox and minigames. Oh and yeah, this game has one of the worst hint system i've ever encountered. So when the hint says find this person/ thing, be mentally prepared to waste a lot of time going through every location there is .

Not a fan. The art was not great. The point and click is clunky and the building ext. part is not good. Think it would be a good story but it takes way to long to tell the story through how clunky everything was. Didn't even finish it.
