    This game could've been better.

    First, the character models and design itself, Its really good! One of the best I would say on this site. The aesthetics and body shape, type is very good in my opinion.

    The Story.. Its just bad, this dev doesn't really know how to make an engaging and exciting storyline. Progress with the main Milf is just boring, what I envision would be ideal as always with these games is corruption, like some touching first, to hugging (maybe when shes at kitchen), kissing on cheek to groping. I feel even now, long within the development there's very little progress. Progress with friend's Aunt which seems to be the main focus for now (?) is just confusing. Mc's reaction in dealing with her is indecisive, sometimes hes meek, now hes confident, Its bad to read idk you need to play as I cant explain fully. Progress overall on characters is just slow, theres good renders of them but no actions from him, like maybe a more initiative and actions from him would be good.

    The Animation and scenes, at first it was good but in the later updates especially this its just bad. Its just bad AI animation. Like I can compare this with his first release before the rework, and the difference is just plain obvious. There was smoothness and quality (genuinely good!) vs now its just shit. Play the before rework yourself to see.

    Overall its a 2.7/5, its still worth playing in my opinion (y)

    For those unaware, the first Season is not really worth playing. The plot is only barely getting started, you have about 10 women throwing themselves at MC left and right, and it is completely unrelated to season 2.

    Season 2 has some great animations. But 90% of the decisions you make just do nothing. At least the first season had a love/corruption tracker on the top of the screen making it seem like the little dialogue choices you made might lead to different relationships with the characters. But season 2 doesn't have that. You get to kinda pick between pursuing your sister's friend or her mother. And there is a bit of a developing plot line with one of the school girls where you find nudes on her phone, and how you handle that. But the rest of the decisions you make are seemingly pointless.

    Great animations and I will continue to play later updates because the story is not awful, even if it is a bit overdone. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. But the decisions that do nothing just really annoy me.

    The average rating for this should be much higher. The plot isn't special. It's standard slice of life stuff. But there is one thing this developer nails, pun intended: the lewd scenes are highly erotic. There's a slow burn tease virtually all the time. By the time you get to the action, you're either ready or your dead. Great stuff.

    Excellent atmosphere, very warm characters, i'm really looking forward to see how this story develops, especially in-house.
    Would love to see some naughty stuff happening with some characters in the presence of others, though not in plain sight. Cheers!

    There is absolutely no doubt that this visual novel has top notch renderings, the character models are very nice to look at, and it's an absolute treat to look at while watching it, and I'm willing to give it a five star rating!
    Rendering: 5
    Modeling: 5

    Love and Temptation ...

    So, 'season 1' is abandoned and no longer cannon - so I assume 'season 2' is actually a remake.

    Season 1's strong point was the renders and excellent curvaceous models, tastefully done so as not to look wanton with odd proportions....

    Anyway, all moot, it's not cannon. And not much in the way of H-scenes (dreams..! sigh). But, looks great if you want to look at good renders.

    So, season 2, is improved, in that there are more characters introduced. But the story flows pretty poorly, even though it follows 'slice of life', the narrative logic is...

    What makes it even more cumbersome is using dialogue tags in the dialogue (why, just why?!), and sometimes with exposition. It makes reading any dialogue clunky and ruins any flow. I found it so annoying that I just skipped it all just to see the sexeh times. The story or anything they say isn't of any value worth battling through it for. So eh.

    The models are not quite as alluring, either. I swear Ayame's hips just get slimmer as time goes by (or, at least, she is not as curvy as S1).

    The MC is a wet-blanket, a virgin, and is awkward around female company, so I thought it utterly strange when the MC took advantage of Alice's mother and fucked her in the doorway as she was speaking to her daughter... what? It seemed out of character. Still, the animations wasn't half bad.

    I think this VN has a lot of potential. I do like the art, the animations are decent, and with a larger cast, there could be great times ahead. It is just a shame that the execution of the story isn't good and the clunky arsed dialogue (easy fix!) kills it for me.

    I wanted to Love this, but the Temptation to skip is too great at the moment.

    isnt NaN

    I love the art style, attention to detail in renders and the inkling of a story so far.
    the one thing I'm docking it for is the development speed as the time between updates makes me forget what previously happened.

    This game is wonderful, great graphics and beautiful characters, I sincerely really like the updates.
    For those who are crying asking for NTR, Netori is the most acceptable in this game. Don't get lost on the way my dear DEV, keep doing a great job.

    This game is very good, the graphics are very beautiful and the characters are also beautiful, both the girls and the older ones, the chapters are not long but that doesn't bother me since I like the game, now I'm just waiting for scenes with the characters from the protagonist's house and with Alice too, who I think is very cute.

    Nothing to complain about this,
    Graphics are quite good
    Environments are really great to look
    Models are top notch
    Story nothing's too crazy going on yet, but the slow burn is quite good in this game
    Character are really lively & they actually gave some effort into showing us in depth character development and their behavior
    But most important thing is the game isn't about some nonsense a$$ story where everyone goes jumping headfirst into sex maniacs from the get go

    Anyway this is quite good game, one of the best VN I've played recently
    Highly recommended
    Props to the DEV, WELL DONE

    Love and Temptation [Ep.5 S2]

    * Talk about what I like in short *
    - For me I really like the appearance of the female characters in this game.
    - and For me I like that the game gives you clear choices on what to do.

    * Message that may not be necessary *
    If I had to give a suggestion, I would say that I want the game to have as many paths to choose from as possible. Honestly, in other games, I have had some characters that I don't like, but in this game, I like almost all of them. So I would like most games in this genre to make the choices clear. In the end, this is just my opinion (I like MILF :D)

    I don't really like reviewing games because it's quite difficult to rate, but I would give this game 5 stars because I like it and I think it deserves 5 stars. After all, this is just my opinion. (My review may not go into much detail. I usually like to talk about the big picture because it's easy to understand if you don't think too much.)

    * Most importantly *
    (I'm not very good at communicating, so please understand my lack of language skills :D)

    * The last thing to say *
    .....Thanks for work dev :Kappa:

    Fantabulous

    (Review of Ep. 5 S2)

    This is an AVN with many things in common with your typical dating sim. For example, no matter how old the characters are they tend to behave like they are 13, and even some of the poses remind you of Japanese games. English is also subpar and could do with some proofreading.

    The gameplay includes a number of choices where depending on your selection you accumulate love, evil and darkness (?) points with every character, unlocking certain scenes. A HUD appears on the top right corner of the screen displaying the stats whenever a time comes to take a decision that will affect them, so you immediately can see the result of your choice.

    The teens and curvy models are quite nice to look at and so are the pleasant renders. Animations are mostly fluid and well done too, though some transitions play too fast; visuals are clearly the strong suit of the game. The story however is weak and quite skippable and action sometimes switch places all of a sudden; continuity could be better.

    In summary, not a bad game to spend some time with but also there isn't anything terribly good or original to see here.

    The first "season" piqued my interest and was actually decent. It featured some hot, kinky scenes and cute characters, though the story had a bit of flow, the plot was still quite weak. I then tried season 2, and honestly, it felt like an entirely different game. The connection between the two seasons is tenuous at best. While the renders remain beautiful, the story in season 2 doesn't make sense and feels disjointed. For now, I can only give it 3 stars. I hope it improves in the future, as I see potential in this game if these things got fixed.

    Was skeptical and a little disappointed at first due to the reboot, but so far, GruBoop's new story caters a lot more to my tastes and feels much more focused. Not everything makes the most sense, like how every MILF wants to jump MC's bones. I think the dev can be more focused on specific characters rather than introduce a new one each update. What I really enjoy is the Miyuki and her story. I thought Ep. 3's bathroom scene was hot and then Ep. 4 blew that out the water with Miyuki helping the MC bathe. I'm someone who enjoys slow burn story's but I understand why F95 members don't with how often games like that end up being abandoned. I'm willing to give Gruboop the benefit of the doubt as they have been consistently updating their game with new content every two months, until that changes I won't hop on the band wagon of hate. F95 should know what they should expect from an update depending on the time frame to build it out, so while these shorter updates don't gives a lot, I've been enjoying them more and more and feel like they're building towards something great, and hope to see whats to come next, as I feel that in the future this game could be 5/5.

    It`s review about firs season.

    First about graphic, it`s most beautiful renders I`ve ever seen so far. Camera angle, posing, lighting, are top notch. Character design, fases, bodies, clothing, are the best.

    Second- music: love music in 18+ VN and in this one is enjoyable.

    Third- plot aaand we don`t have any here, just some event`s that go one after another. Game is reelly short and it will be fine, if it has solid faundation, but for me it seems like dev just give us some scenes and that` all. No story, no character development, just some very pretty scenes.

    I think that dev a relly good 3d artist that want to try create a game, but as a game, it`s not very good, as 3d art work, its incredible.

    Its like 35 minutes for 1 season, give it a shot and maybe i will like it as I am. Thanks for work dev(y)

    A couple of the screenshots are intentionally misleading, showing thin girls. I say intentionally because the shown images are the only images anywhere in the game that show healthily sized people.

    All characters in this game range from obese to morbid and most have inhuman proportions like breasts that are saggy and long - longer than the characters thighs.

    Maybe that appeals to you, I don't know if that is a fetish or not, but if it does not appeal, know that this probably is not the game for you

    The writing is also very very poor - it seems like it was translated from chinese word by word rather than by sentence, to maintain meaning.

    There's no plot.

    The renders are poor, everyone looks waxy

    The UI is fine

    As the previous dude said, there is no plot at all, just a lot of terrible dialogue, the characters are not developed or introduced at all. All the sexual content is a dream or a stupid scene with Miyuki's friend. The game is more like a chore simulator than an erotic game. The only good thing about this game is the renders of Miyuki and Ayame. And don't forget that the dev abandoned the first season when things started to get spicy.

    Excellent VN! Story is solid, the writing is good, and the character graphics are simply stunning. No critique at all (except jumping on the ridiculous colossal dicks bandwagon), keep doing what you do. 5/5!

    There is slow burn and then there is this. The only time this loser has dipped his wick he never ever even completed the act. There is an occasional handy or blow tossed in just to break up the long continuous droning on and on about stuff that does not even mean anything.

    2 downloads available. You would think it picks up where the other left off but NO that is not the case at all. It is 2 separate entities with the same name and characters. Very annoying. Especially when you can enter your name but you can not see it on your screen. Although the neighbor calls you both by your name and the default as well of hero.

    Too inconsistent for me.

    Changing the game rating from 4 to 1. As of reviewing Ep3S2. Will say the game has osm renders and models but lacks on all the other departments a adult VN should have. Blueballing is fine but even with EP3S2 the content is very short not even 30 minute of gameplay, the story is all over the place. Nothing much happens in this game.
    If you want to see some awesome renders with blueballing then you will like this one otherwise it's not even worth rating with such small gameplay.
