Ren'Py - Completed - Lust & Life [v1.6.241029 Extra] [Astaros3D]

Review of [v1.6.241029 Extra]

OK GAME , I've been playing for a while, I hope I remember everything so I can evaluate it.

You wake up in the hospital having lost your memory, you remember some fragments but not everything, they still chase you to put you in jail but a woman takes you into her house after almost running you over.

Typical free roam, click&point and a house full of women that you corrupt and fuck little by little.

The game is already quite a few years old and for its age I think the quality is decent. Don't expect anything out of this world but I liked it at the time.

PROS

• Good renders
• Normal animations with audio
• Decent Story
• Lots of sex scenes

CONS

• Horrible MC
• Repetitive

RATING :

Content: ⭐⭐
Sound: ⭐⭐
Renders: ⭐⭐⭐
Characters: ⭐
Animations: ⭐⭐⭐

Final conclusion: ⭐⭐⭐ OK GAME RECOMMENDED if you like free roam and lots of sex scenes

This game is seriously bugged. If you don't follow the guide 100% and say the wrong thing to Mia, or get in the negative with her, you need to start over. The see boobs quest does not trigger when you actually see boobs from the neighbour or in the shower. And it is impossible to get Mia neutral or positive when she first is negative.
This "game" is literally "follow the guide 100% or you will fail/suffer."

This game is a well-executed, sex-scene-driven experience. While I somewhat enjoyed myself, the lack of story depth and unique conversations didn’t elevate it to a game I’d consider replaying.

The main character isn’t exactly Prince Charming (and no, not Shrek 2's Prince Charming). Instead, the protagonist feels more like a mix of conscience and angel/demon, as they seem to be the driving force behind every event. You get the impression that none of the choices or actions you take really stem from the hero or yourself. Despite this, the overall tone feels somewhat grounded in reality.

The main love interests are solid and engaging, mainly due to unique character traits that make each of them stand out. This creates a sense of investment in individual interactions. Unfortunately, the supporting characters feel underdeveloped. Their absence wouldn’t have made much of a difference, as they add little to the overall experience.

The story is almost nonexistent. There’s little to no interaction about what’s happening, aside from moments tied to major shifts in the narrative.

The visuals, however, are the game’s strongest asset. The lewd scenes are excellent, featuring well-crafted animations that make them genuinely enjoyable. Even if there were occasional flaws in character art, they didn’t detract from the overall positive impression. The settings are also well-designed and contribute to the experience.

That said, much of the game feels oddly empty, reducing it to a series of sex scenes. It often feels like the game encourages you to hold "Ctrl" and skip straight to the action. It’s reminiscent of a mobile game—a starting point for future projects rather than a content-heavy, polished experience.

I wouldn’t recommend this game to players like me, who seek added narrative and gameplay value beyond just watching adult content. However, for others who are primarily interested in the lewd content, it could be a great fit.

the combat is idiotic, and the game walk is not very helpful. Animations are ok, MC's "size" changes size throughout the game which is quite annoying. I dont have anything else to say but I guess i need more characters.

This game is disappointed .
+PROS
-Animation quality is decent just above average.
+CONS
-Did not complete the game lot of s*x options are there but not implement.
-After game ends it rediret to main menu then Why the open world/Free rome.
-The grind is tedious(luckly there is inbuild cheat).
-The story mid, rushed Ending.
+And if u played the previous update there there is only 2 animation(Ending scenes).
Conclusion
Just find another game this is not worth it to play even for the animation/scenes its not worth to download.

When I first downloaded this game, it was pretty good and was basically half way done. Then I think in 3-4 years, I hear nothing of it. I redownload it with my favorite tag on all games " Completed". At that point I can't remember this is a game I play. A lot of model looks alike after years!

I replay it and I feel that the negativity may be due to the grind. Unless you scum save and play with inifinite money and cheats, the repetition can lose a LOT of the charm this game has.

Why? Because it just kills the fluidity and I remember the first time when I played it, the absence of Walkthrough meant you had no idea if you took a right decision or missed content.
Considering the time it took, the grind, I feel I understand someone who may have given a lower note.

But Cheat, max cash and mana, and you'll enjoy a rather fluid game with minimal grinding making this game much more fun and only 4-5 maybe 6 hours long!

What a horrific beginning to a game, with the fight with "Uncle". There is no explanation of mechanics, and if you perform a Cross, you completely refill the health bar of "Uncle". The fight can be won by spamming Uppercut and reloading until you win via RNG, but then "Uncle" just gets up again and then you're forced to repeat the same thing over again. There is absolutely no point to this fight as you have no agency in it. It's just there to get you to the next screen where you're waking up from a car accident. It's completely unnecessary. What a waste of time.

I didn't get very far despite my interest in models/look. Helping with math homework where the maths not written out properly so it's easy to get wrong, and then taking forever to win the stupid rng fight minigame saving after, and finding out reloading the save puts me back before the fight? No thanks.

This Dev makes it so hard to love his games. The models are unique for sure, but still hot and his stories are very clever. I wanted to give it some love as it's much better than it's current rating.
It's not path driven, so go crazy! However, this game barely attempts to guide you in any way, so a WT Mod is absolutely necessary, which is why I can't give it 5 stars. (You'll literally fumble around trying to figure out of things work, which stalls the quest until you do.) However, with that mod, this is a very enjoyable game, so give it a try.

Very good, I liked the plot and some of the scenes were quite hot, especially with the redhead.

Sad that the ending is too rushed and ends with a fight (clearly not the game's strong point due to the randomness).

Version: 1.5.2

I dropped this game after it was occupying space for years on my hard drive. Reasons being:
MC looks inbred and stupid
everything is so fake and robotic with their doll like expressions and reused template moans
the plot is dumb and not even in a comedic way not a fan of bimbo so all the tits and asses just look like inflated balloons
it gets grindy with farming affection

what was okay was the relatively smooth animation and sheer volume of content
traversing map is easy once you get certain items
built in guide


It's an old game now - just left a review for statistical purposes.

Nice game but promised much more.
Biggest negative is end of game felt way rushed.
TBF the sandbox can also be frustrating. Ensure you have walk-through handy.
Pros = models are way hot and porn scenes are very fap-able.
Gets four stars because his cougar is delicious.
TBH I often replay the cougar's porn scenes. She is very yummy.

To put it briefly, I'm surprised this came after My Cute Cousin, a game I truly enjoyed. This game has a lot of the hallmarks of what I would think is a new developer and even though the game has a decent story and great models it felt like the game was fighting me to find them.

Pros:
- Beautiful Models
- Decent Story
- Variety in body types, interactions, and personalities.

Cons:
- The story often felt out of order based on how characters react
- The in-game hint system would often be wrong or just vague
- There is no roll-back
- Dialogue responses change seemingly at random, causing you to quick-save so you can see if the person you just fucked will actually respond well to you coming onto them
- The game is sometimes hostile in it's design, ex: you will open several packages throughout the game, and for no good reason you have to use a knife from you inventory every time or the narrators will call you stupid
- The game randomly at times hides where you can click for seemingly no reason

Overall, the game is good enough to merit a playthrough, but I'm not even going to go back through to grab the gallery pics I missed. I highly recommend having a walkthrough of some kind open and saving once every couple minutes so you can back up when a girl gets mad at you.

This is a surprisingly good followup to My Cute Roommate/Cousin. I wasn't sure at first if it came before or after MCR but playing it you'll see references to the other so there you go.

So the premise of this game is kind of unique and there is some interesting ideas in it. I looked at first that it was going to involve a magic system but that only really come into play a couple of times and is just sort of forgotten about most of the time.

Like MCR, I love the set up for and the sex scenes and the scenes themselves. However I think the story kind of falls short of fulling it's promise and it sort of just ends. It still a great ride just not for the story.

One major improvement over the other game is it didn't seem to soft lock as easy as the other. I also liked the hint system though I played the game with the walkthrough mod and didn't even click on the hint icon as much as I maybe should have. Still I was able to get through it game much easier. No restart or anything. Still suspect soft locking was possible though.

All in all the story is could have been more fleshed out but it's not bad and you'll be able to enjoy the scenes without many issues. I'd also like to see a sequel with the mother shown at the end.

Story (3/5):
At the beginning it was intriguing, but over time it seems that the thread is being lost, it seems that the developer only thought of the beginning and the end (a bit forced in my opinion). The way the mood changes with the women feels a bit forced.

Gameplay (3/5):
The mechanics of the schedules and places where the women are seem good to me, I feel that the map is a bit wasted as well as the scenarios, unfortunately once you finish the game or you can explore freely, so you will have to load the most recent game to re-explore everything. In the same way I feel that some characters had very little participation

Animations (5/5):
Of the best parts, the women have different body designs, some have the same body type but at least there is variety, I liked the scenarios as well as the HUDs design

Sex Stuff (4.5/5):
Very good positions, good transitions, although sometimes the situations seemed a bit forced and convenient. I really liked that there are different angles as well as animations in the scenes. Perhaps it was necessary to use more places in the house to have sex

Girl House [v1.5.21 Extra] [Astaros3D]
As far as I'm concerned, I find this game slightly better than "My Cute Roommate", but still not enough to get 3/5.

The female character models are overall better than the title mentioned above, now a good portion of the characters are pleasing to the eye.
The male characters, especially MC are pitiful.
The animations are unfortunately mediocre.

The story seems to be deep from the intro, but it doesn't make logical sense and the scenes that follow don't have a linear progression. In one scene the girl is against certain sexual actions, in the next the same girl is a nymphomaniac (few scenes but annoying that there really are such dialogues).
The dialogues are even worse, however badly done I recommend skipping. I've read dialogue that makes more sense in MTL games (and I'm not English).
The only positive note is the aesthetics of Vanessa.
I do not recommend the game.

I have multiple reasons for this low rating :

First of all , the ending, or should I say the last part of the game, was really rushed ,as if the developer wanted to get done with the project and start a new one for more cash.

Second , the MC is ugly af ,dude looks like a goblin , the detective dude has a more of a MC look than the actual MC.

Third issue , minigames are nothing but a waste of time , since they don't actually add significant progress to the characters' lust/love system.

Overall , the characters graphics are not bad , the story itself had potential but was very rushed.

A game that wants to be more than a novel but ultimately fails at being fun.


Characters and story don't really stand out. They lack emotional oomph and this game mostly seems to focus on gameplay.

Gameplay didn't add much. It feels gamey to wait for the right time to find people in rooms. There's also (skippable!) minigames, like helping with homework by solving math questions, or making cleaning money by being shown images of dishes and clicking the identical pic. The option to skip them is welcome, but that still leaves you with quests to progress the story - they're okay at best.

Ending comes out of nowhere so it gets a special mention. Also, it involves a fight with an uncle which I was stuck on and long story short: you press a single button until you win... which might take like 20 tries due to random rolls, ugh.


I'm not recommending this. I was already leaning towards 3 stars and the ending further cemented it. It's entirely forgettable in my mind, but others might like some of the minigames/scenes. Try it out if you want, but if after an hour you aren't entertained then know it won't get better and it's not worth it to continue for the story.

Another game "Worth a Playthrough" I thought the models were gorgeous. The story was decent and engaging. There was some grinding, but it wasn't too too bad. The ending seems a little bit like it was put together at the last minute, but again, not a game breaking flaw.

Generally not a fan of sandbox games, but this one was actually pretty good. There wasn't that much grinding and minigames can be skipped. The models are pretty and hot scenes were really high caliber.

My only gripes would be that some of the quests were not really intuitive and I had to search for the proper sequence of events to complete them and that the ending wasn't great--but the plot isn't the main focus of this game in the first place, so that's just a minor nitpick.

Overall, still a pleasant experience and worth a try.
