VN - Ren'Py - Maids and Maidens [v0.12.0] [Raybae Games]

The story is interesting and the storyline has good branching out I suppose as half the gallery is locked. I'm compelled to do a quick replay.
The sex scenes are good, there is good intimacy, not like some other games where there is only penetration (or only zooming the girls face to make them seem like they kissed). And the text length is PERFECT, there is no super unnecessary long internal monologue, or speaking to a guy for a prolonged time. The visuals are decent, being a based of HoneySelect games, the characters don't look borderline Asian, the skin colors usually look correct. There are many animated scenes, not on the in the sex scenes but in some casual scenes too. There are some good and asshole MC paths, and MCs character is reflected on later in the story so I think those decisions will matter to a good degree. Not menial to read and good to jerk off.

Great game so far. It really is a VN the MC has intresting choice to make, he can turn in being a nice guy or a bit more manipulative. The lewd part is good as well. Pretty mild and nothing to extreme so far but the athmosphere and characters are great!

As of .5 of the game. The game has progressed decently in the story. But there is an obvious political bias in the story that just kills the immersion. Decisions sometimes feels forced and makes you go, why would I even want to do that?

Some of the girls are really nice, though.

It has the making of being a stellar game, I'll say that right off the bat.

The story is the kind that gains momentum and only expands in both complexity and drama. And it's compelling! It's not overdramatic, doesn't overplay its hand and always remembers that it's also a porn game. It's not an easy balance but so far it succeeds.

As for the characters, they're varied and has depth and their own motivations - a must for any self-respecting game. I found the MC to be a bit... Odd? Sometimes he comes across as bland, especially with how he interacts with others. There's little humor or charm even. But still it just works.

There's a strong presence of white knighting, but it never comes off as incel-y. MC can do some proper domination techniques which creates interesting dynamics. And since it's a harem game, everything is geared towards acquiring more and more feminine characters.

The sex scenes are all alright. Many are animated but it's not the best animation I've seen. What makes the game worth a 5-star is the combination of good story, intersting characters and the dynamics you have! I'll be coming back to this game in the future.

For an 0.5 there's a lot of content and story, but don't worry there's also plenty of lewd scenes incl. penetration scenes, I think the game has a nice mix of lewdness and story.

I personally decided to be a good guy throughout the game, with the exception of Yumi, since the game made it so hard to treat any of the other girls poorly, according to the dev realistic portrayals of women include them getting f'd over in life countless times. And yeah I'm sure these stories happen in real life and life isn't all milk & honey, but not every single woman on the Earth has a miserable life. I guess only Tifanny's life could be considered in pristine condition, but then again considering who she's related to, my inklings and the way the dev made the story ; has me doubting that perfect first look.

The game ends on a very interesting note (cliffhanger ofc), but I think we can overcome the upcoming challenge.

As of 0.5

Others have said it, already - the game is great. Nice, polished, the characters are interesting and real, there are plenty of animations and it's probably the best looking HS based game I've seen on this site.

It's a straight VN, CYOA-style. Kind of linear and as far as I can tell the choises are more based on will you pursue a specific girl or variety of interactions. You can be quite the dickhead. Or a knight in shining armor. Take your pick and download and play this game. There are hours of content and they are great!

Version 0.5
I give it 7 stars really. The stories in this VN game are brilliantly crafted, grounded on reality. Have a lot of contents (stories) even in its infancy stage. Plenty of sexual contents with multiple LIs and there are perfectly valid reasons why some LIs did not have sexual contents yet. There are plenty of characters/LIs, each with their own unique interesting stories. Play as the nice guy, corruptor or a litle bit of both. Few choices have major consequences and almost all the choices changes some dialogues and scenes, encouraging players to explore all to get the full experience. My first playthrough on the Romance/Love path in a single sitting took about 6 to 8 hours. Although I am not a fan of lactation but I am loving it how lactation was included in this game. It is a nice touch. All the best, ray. Viva Maria.

Underrated. Good renders and models, animations are great too. But most important stuff is the plot/storyline, it's gripping not that unique but well organized to say the least. Liked the romance angle. When i read the tag/preview for the first time i thought this'll be one of those slave type shit but delighted to be wrong.

So nice and warm story. I definitely need more of this =)
Please update asap! And thank you

Quite decent models, some of them look really good, some of them look kinda creepy. If it possible to add more cuteness to those maids, it would be perfect

Wow, what a great story. A wonderful mix of character types and great animations and a really great plot so far, very intriguing. Not sure how i missed this one until now but really glad i tried it. Looking forward to more updates. Well done to the Dev.

This is the only game where lactation is a core theme without oversized tits, plus the girl does it reluctantly too. What more can you ask? The only thing that can improve the game is more beautiful cows. Let us milk them all, dev.

Absolutely gorgeous! Girls are adorable, render is nice, story is not meet-and-fuck and all romance targets deserve attention. Especially Carol. The sooner Luke is no longer relevant in the game the better..

Thanks dev for making this game!

Version [v0.4]
This game was a big surprise, to be such a new game it has a lot going for it. The story is interesting, with a array of characters and it keeps you interested to see what comes next. Highly recommend to give it a try.

REV V0.4

Nice game i like it.

Underrated and overlooked deserves more attention. Definitely worth a try.

The story, characters and graphics are very good.

I recommend this VN, and look forward to future updates.

Great game, very high quality. The story is developing to be quite interesting, renders are good, girls are a solid 9/10. Wrote this review because this game is criminally underrated; there are other games with much lower quality that have thousands more views, hope this changes in the future. Good luck to the developer, can't wait for the next update

Extremely underrated and overlooked.

Nice game with good renders, solid animations, and intelligent characters. There's plenty of content already too, and you can play as a good guy, villain, or somewhere in-between. I encourage people to give it a shot.

[Rev @ v0.3.1]

I like it~

Art's nice. Skin tones are the girls are too reflective and weirdly-lit in some pics but overall I dig it.

Writing is good. Scenario's been done but voice and narrative are both easy reads and characterization is enjoyable.

All the porn I saw was right up my alley with nothing squicky.

TLDR: Want more~

i usually don't "play" projects, which don't have over 10 - amount of rates. Don't understand, why i decided this one , but i'm happy, that i did exception. Novel is very interesting. Writer sometimes delve very deepin the soul And a lot of work already was done. I've got a lot of pleasure, reading this novel. Thank You very much! Whish You all theBest, guys!

So, I'm wondering why this has an update of Feb of 2020 here, but it says it was updated in Feb of 2021? Is there a mishap some where

Story gets 4/5
Has a good flow, and some humor

Renders get 4/5
Didn't notice any issues with rendering

Characters get 4/5
There's some dynamic to each of them. None come off as flat

Overall
This is a good story so far, and tons of content. There are lots of women the MC interacts with. Some are involved in good scenes, and others aren't. Choices are here and there. I recommend this VN, and look forward to future updates.

Just finished playing through v0.3 and I'm surprised at the little attention this game has. Definitely worth a try.
THE GOOD:

• Nice amount of content
• Nice grammar
• Good amount of choices. I don't think they change too much, mostly for flavour text or to skip certain content, but still appreciated.
• Interesting story and setting (Corporate). Very relaxed, slice of life kind of thing.
• Interesting characters. They could be written a bit better, but all of them have realistic backgrounds and real life problems that one can easily relate to. The designs are nice too, the girls are attractive but not overkill, no weird feeling that everyone around you is a super model.
• Animated scenes
• There is music
• There is a gallery

THE LESS GOOD:

• The music seems to be pretty default
• The MC gets the job done, but feels too much like a blank slate. It might be to allow for you playing him as a nice guy or a more direct/demanding type. However, it feels like he had no friends or anyone in his life before the game.
• The animation loops do not repeat seamlessly breaking the immersion and ruin a little bit the otherwise decent animations.
  

Summary:
In my opinion it's one of the better games on this site, that seems to get right many of the things that should be right, and the things it gets wrong could relatively easily be improved but somehow slipped by unnoticed. I'd say give it a shot!
