VN - Unity - Abandoned - Lucky Phone [v0.1.5] [Naughty Married]

I have mixed feelings about this game. On one hand, it's a classic netorase story: your wife goes on a beach vacation with her best friend, and you, as the husband, text with her, the friend, and other characters.

What I liked:

• Interface and visuals: The smartphone interface is very well-made, and the static images (AI-generated) are generally of good quality

What disappointed me:

• Technical side of video-content: The animation is very poorly done, it looks like a slideshow with blurry transitions. There are also sound problems: the background voice acting is minimal, and the sound in the videos is too quiet and generic.
• Story development and its tone: After Act 5, the events rush by too fast, and the tone of the story suddenly becomes much harsher and more cynical. You can't avoid this content.
• Lack of choice and variety: The player has almost no influence on the story. Choices don't matter, and there is no variety in the plot, which would be easier to implement in this format than in a regular visual novel. By the middle of the game, this becomes really annoying.
• Dragged-out mechanic: Not being able to skip the animation of characters typing their messages is a completely unnecessary and tedious mechanic that artificially stretches out the already short gameplay.

Essentially, the story isn't outstanding, but the intrigue of "where this harsh mess is going" could have kept me interested until the end. However, the project is most likely dead. At the time of writing this review, the developer's last activity on Patreon was half a year ago. The chances of it coming back after such a long silence are very slim.

Final thoughts: This is average game with a phone mechanic. I'd only recommend trying it if you are a hardcore fan of this specific subgenre and don't expect a finished story. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone else, precisely because it's unfinished and it's highly likely we'll never see the ending. If the project were still active, I might have given it a chance.

Review as of v0.1.5

This is definitely a strange one. I can't really talk about the game without addressing the strange tonal shift the story goes through towards the later parts. This seemed like a normal NTS/hotwife game but it actually is quite a bit more messed up and non-consensual than the game would initially make you believe.

Personally, I was a fan of the AI enhanced art but that's pretty much the only highlight for me. It cannot be understated how slow the message speed is, to the point that it is a genuine slog to get through. The dialogue is mostly nothing special but there were some odd moments that made me wonder if there was a glitch or script error, like the wrong character was talking or something.

It's hard to recommend this game given the slow message speed and the bizarre story. Again, I really cannot understate how quickly and abruptly the story spirals into very strange territory. You may or may not be a fan of where the story goes but it is definitely a bait and switch. If you're purely an NTS enjoyer, I'd probably steer clear of this one.

Godot, so extremely sluggish text pacing even when set to fast mode and no skipping. Saves are annoying too.

The AI art is not sexy, everything looks blurry and slightly wrong. The story is ridiculous nonsense, the writing is translated badly from something that isn't English. SKIP

I loved this game so much. It had great art. Great potential. They made a good story with a slow buildup. Slowly teasing the player with more and more daring stuff, but always with a natural progression. Then the game went on hiatus for a long time before being reactivated again. It must have been given to a new writer because the stuff post-update is utter shit. The art is worse, lazy ai stuff. The writing doesnt make sense, like it did pre-update. Something went horribly wrong with this game. It went from a 5-star to a 1-star.

0.1.5
" All actions take place with full mutual consent and respect among all participants. " --- This is a complete and utter lie!

I originally liked it (thats why I write this... like, this is SO disappointing), the english wasn't great, but the girl is hot and the story was lighthearted nice nts... the shift is UNHINGED... and when I say that I mean it... even for a ntr game that shift into blackmail and rape with scat elements would be kinda insane... but in a supposedly respectful and consent focused nts game it's just completly unhinged of the rails...

If the Dev actually wants to save this, the only way I see is to completly delete the 0.1.5 update and retry it the way he did it before this abomination came out...

Lucky Phone v0.1.5.
What started off as an almost fun, and playful explorative Hotwife-Phone adult game, takes a left turn into "everyone is blackmailing the main characters" dumpster fire of a story in just one chapter. I have never played a game where a single chapter wastes the opportunity of chapters previous quite like this, ever, and drives all its potential off of a cliff. This last chapter almost feels like a giant middle finger from the developer.
Absolute trash. Stay far away from this game.

I give 2 stars because if you're looking for NTR it's got a sudden shocking twist to get you there. But the description leads you to believe this game is something it is not. It was leading to hotwife for the first like 90%, and then literally forcibly backdoors you (or more precisely your wife). Also, the english is bad, and the AI enhanced real porn is mediocre at best.

"All actions take place with full mutual consent and respect among all participants." LMAO

This is NOT a hotwife game. You can be mislead by the "slutwife" description mixed with the above quote. This is a drugging, rape, and Blackmail game. MC can be into it or not, but the story plays out the exact same either way. Dev gives you the illusion of choice. Game starts with an MC who wants to hotwife his wife. Her best friend is on board and willing to help. Things go slightly bad and the "friend" goes full psycho. DO NOT read the spoiler if you like what you've heard so far. If you are concerned already, then you can read the spoiler or leave...either way you won't be playing this. She gets your wife hammered, drugs her, takes her back to the hotel and sets up a live feed. She then calls up a guy to come anally rape her drugged friend, after which he forces his shit covered dick down her throat and pisses in her mouth. She sends you the livestream link and you watch. She then texts your wife the next day with video threatening to tell you all about it if the wife doesn't go full slut mode for her the rest of the trip...little does the wife know you watched it live and she is keeping you completely informed, and even if you don't like it and yell at the friend for what she did to your wife you don't appear to have any option to do anything but sit back and watch it happen

It has a lot of potential. I will say that there are a lot of "NTR phone" games there but this is the first one that i saw that implement "real" character. It has potential, the argument seems like the same like the others but, well atleast the diferrence is that here there is not anime/manga chatacters views. It is a good game, try to play so you can say later if it is good or note.

Wow!!! Super, very sexy!! I like animations, Whant them more! Very cute girl, fast temp, as i like. No bugs. Good language. Hope there will be more kinki staff. Good story, and persons. Is there more games like that?

What an incredible game, and my native language is Portuguese, I loved your work. The only thing I would change would be that the video animations are slower and could be more fluid. But I understand it's so we can stop enjoying the view haha. Looking forward to updates!

The overall score for this game is kinda crazy to me. I stopped playing after episode 4 or 5 and just couldn’t bring myself to finish it. I recently played another phone-based game that was way better than this one

Writing 1/5
This is the game’s biggest flaw. I read some of the reviews, and now I can’t unsee one guy’s comment in his review about how it feels like it was written by some Indian guy. it makes perfect sense. The dialogue is extremely unnatural and weird. Humans don’t communicate like that. Honestly, even an AI could do a better job simulating real conversations, and it’d at least be grammatically correct.

Graphics 2/5
Low-res, often blurry AI-generated images that anyone could make. I guess the effort went into making sure the hands weren’t distorted, but the rest looks like images I was generating at first when I was just experimenting with Stable Diffusion a year ago.

Technical 3/5
It’s fine. There are no bugs, but the systems are so simple that I’d be surprised if there were any. I lowered the score because some things, like the wallpaper, are pretty useless. You never leave the texting screen anyway, so it feels like the design wasn’t well thought out.

Overall 2/5
English isn’t my first language and I thought I had a pretty good tolerance for bad English in games, but this game showed me just how bad writing can get. Even if you turned off 90% of your brain, it’s hard to believe two people are actually communicating in these dialogues. I can’t fathom how someone could say, " I've read every single dialogue in it and it was truly thrilling." Were they playing a different game, or in another language where the script isn’t just a direct translation but a completely different one?

The level of English kills this game, it sounds so much like an Indian guy has written it, I started hearing every text in an Indian accent

Nothing feels natural or real here, not the writing, not the way people talk to each other, especially not the art, which is just badly made, low resolution AI

Also, if you expect a NTR game like the other phone games, look somewhere else. From the start, the MC is pushing his girlfriend to look more slutty and get attention from men. Everything he says feels like autism

It gets 1 star for clean UI and good presentation, but otherwise its very hard to get into this game

Reviewed in version 0.1.4
Game is very promising, but it needs to be playable with the keyboard, I mean it's very simple game, why do I have to use the mouth and my dick at the same time? doesn't make sense for a porn game.
And if what I sensed is true, and there is various paths in the game, then we need either the ability to reply episodes, or we need a scene guide within the game to know exactly what we might have missed.
I hate Unity games they are always bad controls, but I can't imagine that the entire thing is unfixable.

-English is abysmal.
-Conversations make no sense.
-Ai photos basically means all the females and proportions look the same.
-There isn't any point in options when everything else is that terribly made.

the only decent parts are the clean ui and some qol settings.

My respect to the couple, this is a true romantic and sweet NTR/NTS game
I've read every single dialogue in it and it was truly thrilling
Thank you for such a master piece work
Hope to see more in future, and wish you good luck in the game and relationship

v0.1.3

So far I like the concepts being used, and the AI visuals look surprisingly good! The problem is that this game desperately needs a native English speaker to proofread the writer’s material. If the dialogue could be polished up a bit and flow more naturally, this would be a really good game despite it still being early in development.

TLDR: Good start but needs an English proofreader. Too early in development for me to rate it any higher than 3 stars but there’s good potential here for another fun NTS/swinging phone game.

I love NTR, and fans of SW/cuck should enjoy this creation.
The live streams and videos are technically well executed.
A lot of effort has been put into the app itself. The sounds, animations, transitions, etc.—I like everything about it. The wife doesn’t leave you indifferent, and the wife's friend with her ideas even more so.
I’m looking forward to an awesome continuation.

This is one of most intresting and good made games of this year! Pictures are very sexy. And the story is the best! Interesting dialogs an characters. Slow corruprion of main characters very good to wotch. A really want to see complete game!

Great potential, great start. Love the way it’s building up. Sometimes I had the feeling that the answers were almost identical, so not really sure if they’re really making an impact on how the story progresses. If so, my advice would be to separate them a bit more. Specially the emojis meaning is kind of confusing. Anyway, I’ll say it again: love the way it’s going. Keep up the good work.

Update: V0.1.5.
- The excellent, promising start has taken a dive. While there's still potential to modify the story, it's no longer a husband/wife or bf/gf exploring or playing a sexy game with a complicit BF to push the story. The previous "progression" has taken a nosedive into angry blackmail and weird games where the MC is just an observer/victim of whatever randomness pops up.

- While the FMC is sexy, hot, the improvements needed have not happened, and the story has suffered. It's very abrupt, choppy, jumping from moment to moment without a comfortable sense of flow, setup for the next scene/moment, with little to no 'resolution' of the previous...

While there's certainly worse out there, the hotness of the FMC isn't enough to overcome this train wreck of a story to make this more than average, at best... 5* for the FMC, 1* for the story....


Early review based on V 0.1.2.

Excellent, promising start.
Though my personal favorite so far, easily top 3 of games/stories using this phone/text concept that I've come across, and I've played more than a few of these "phone" stories.

Things that could be improved:
- The status/gallery doesn't "save" or stay unlocked when starting a new game. Subsequent playthroughs are hard resets. Not a big deal early on, but 100% photos, videos are based on choices, and if full 100% unlock ability diverges onto different paths, the hard status/gallery reset and lack of being able to unlock 100% is going to drive people, like myself, with completionism OCD absolutely crazy...lol I'm currently at 96% photos and it's driving me crazy that I can't find the 1 or 2 I'm missing...

- It's been noted that English is not the dev/writer's primary language. This is obvious in phrasing, wording in the text/story. Wording, phrasing improvements after translations would make this one even better going forward. The lack of quality conversion to conversation English is ok short term, but the lack of quality consistency over a longer period could diminish this product's excellent start and concept.
