Ren'Py - Completed - Milfy City [v1.0e] [ICSTOR]

The only thing this project had going for it is how well known it was. It was a classic in this genre. That's about the only positive thing one could say about this game.

It's bad. Like, really bad. It's an unfinished buggy mess with a [Completed] tag slapped on to it.

There had been zero new content for ages, which makes this final "update" even worse as it's just mindblowing how terrible it turned out after so much time has passed.

I was never a big fan of Milfy City in the first place, but I did play it simply because of its name. Like drinking a coke just because it's a coke when in reality it tastes like piss.

Thank god this chapter is closed now. Hope there won't be another one, even though it looks like there will be....

It's one of the pioneer so it got the credit and the hype it deserve but...

Now, after a few years, it's not so tasty compared to other games that came after and have less renown.

The scenario feels like it has been written by a teenager, it's emty and oriented towards salty cum and feet (the developer probably tasted his own cum after eating 2 packs of crisp/chips)

The assets used are old and incoherent sometimes but it's because even after the final version that came up 1 or2 years later can't even really tell, nothing was added except some hidden cards and some repeatable scenes...

Nothing was remade and the patreons probably think that's the only porn game that exist to have been patient and paying money to void and fake working.

It's a basic sandbox renpy game, that hasn't evolve nor been remade.
So three stars for the nostalgia but not recommended for the veterans of this genre but welcomed for the newbies...

Oof, this one is tough to rate. The development was/is a complete mess. Now there's a new version and some really good content got removed which just plain sucks. But let's pretend for a moment that the terrible delays didn't happen and treat this as a freshly released, somewhat complete game.

The story has a solid premise... for about five minutes. Then it turns into a completely unrealistic clusterfuck. Don't get me wrong, I'm totally fine with unrealistic stuff, because we're talking about a porn game here. But the things that happen in Milfy City... Jesus Christ.

The Celia arc is beyond stupid. To be more precise, Celia is just very, very stupid. It takes her ages to figure out the whole thing while any sane person would have needed about 1 minute. Well, at least the porn related to her is kinda nice, especially towards the end.

It's interesting that the "landlady" character is the pushy one, but oh boy, does the relationship with her develop in a dumb way. The two "roommates" are even worse. The younger one basically gets tricked into having a romantic relationship with the MC who acts like a complete sociopath in many scenes. The older one's story is better, but not by much, especially with the i-patch installed it becomes kinda creepy. (The first scene with Caroline and Violet in the MC's bedroom is utterly crazy when you think about it.)

Then there are many side characters, their stories are rather short, but mostly enjoyable. The swimmer's arc is completely messed up from a gameplay perspective. But I do like the lesbian couple and the twins. Sadly, the neighbors got removed, because... nobody knows. Patreon rules? Greed? Whatever.

The actual game mechanics are infuriating. Why THE FUCK can I only fast forward time when I'm on the map screen? Why THE FUCK can't I jump to the map from everywhere? Why THE FUCK do I have to select items in the inventory before I click on an object - a simple "is item x in inventory?" check would also do the trick. Why THE FUCK are there so many boring mini games? I'll stop swearing now, but I've got more questions: Why isn't there any "fast travel" option? Especially going to bed at night and clicking through all the rooms is just tedious. Why is money so badly balanced? Why is the in-game walkthrough designed in a manner that I have to constantly click on the left/right buttons to see the hints? A simple pop-up window with ALL current hints would be so much better.

There are also still some bugs which is inexusable after such a long time. The graphics are a bit dated at this point, but the character models still look nice. There's not a lot of sound, but I do like the "thud" noise when Sara hits her head against something. It's funny.

I've already ranted about the story, but let's get into the actual writing. It's mostly quite "on the nose" and does move the plot forward. Still, there are many moments that feel like the dev has never interacted with a real person. Lots of events follow the "magic dick" trope, once girls see the MC's giant schlong, they turn into mindless sex objects, because that's what penises do to women.

Summing up, this game could have been a true classic had it been finished a few years ago. Now it's THE prime example for early access / croudfunding gone wrong. It doesn't deserve to be review bombed, because there is some quality there, but it's also far from being an excellent game. Three stars sound fair to me.

Back when I first found this game, it would've easily been a 4 stars. Of course, it would've never been a 5 star game, because its still plagued with all the issues this genre has for me. I wont go into detail about them, but I'll briefly summarise some of my general issues with these types of games that I can tolerate.

1. Same sexual progression with every character. (Foreplay, Handjob etc, Blowjob, Sex, Anal)
2. There are no real challenges. Most of the cast love the MC before anything begins, and so the story is just "Reach a point where they get the courage to act on their feelings", which doesn't really mix well with the characters description of being an unpopular nerd.
2a. The exception to the above are a couple characters that aren't in love with you, and oh my god the Main Character becomes stalkerish level creepy immediately.
3. Pointless Minigames and fake "choices".

Now then, for the specifics of this game and where I think it goes from "standard bad tropes" to "1 star".

1. There's one character where the objective is to beat her and win a bet. Its your standard button masher. The game tells you to try and beat her, or "Train" to get better. You physically cannot train until you lose, and you will always lose. It is hard coded that you must lose. So why the fuck am I doing a button masher?

Following that, the story is unclear for most of her route on whether its only canonically recognising your wins, or both wins or losses, because guesss what? Your losses are just nonstop repeatable until you win then progression occurs. It also makes NO SENSE that she lets you rematch her when you lost? This was never dealt with.

At the end of her content, they then make it clear that its all canon.

2. Same character from #1, but there is one scene where you get a dialogue option. Its to let OTHER characters do sexual stuff with the girl as part of a humiliation kink. To be specific, you aren't doing anything or making anyone doing anything, you simply voice it as an idea and walk off, with the sell being that if you say it, she ends up doing it.

But here's the catch. There are no scenes where you get to see it. They barely confirm it happened. Then it never happens again.

Some of you may be thinking, "I'm not into NTR" or whatever, and this isn't for you. And that's FINE. The issue is, why the hell is this dialogue option even an option, when it adds very little? Either commit a bit more to having it as an option for those that would like it, or don't bother. What the hell is this half hearted mention?

3. Creepy behaviour. You persistently approach women non stop, basically begging for sex, then guilt tripping them or annoying them until they do it.

4. Money.

Money as a mechanic is a staple for these games, and I personally am not a fan most of the time.

One game has the character have a single job they can do, once a day, for money. But not this game.

We have options.

A) You can use your computer and gamble in an annoying and tedious game of "Match the pairs", only with 3 or 4 of the same image to match.
B) You can use your computer to gamble in a game of rock paper scissors.
C) Beg for a small bit of pocket change from a parent.
D) Interesting job but it's part of a story and quickly gives no money.
E) Work as a cleaner for another character. What is it? Oh, its a mini game where you are shown an image of an office and have to find all the trash that "Doesn't belong." which includes, TISSUES, BOTTLES. Oh and, the tissues are white and the office is white. I have spent minutes looking for some obscure bit of tissue that's a slightly darker shade of white over the floor.
F) Work as a Pool Cleaner. Barely pays, only available for a short time as part of a quest.
G) Work for another parent. Guess what? ITS ANOTHER BLOODY MATCHING GAME.

And that's it.
You need money for a LOT of the quests in this game, to buy items or just give the money.
Money could've been made a key story component, where you do quests that imply a job etc.
Instead, its locked behind boring, tedious and sometimes annoying mini games that add nothing to the game.

They aren't fun. They just bloat play time and not in a good way.

All in all, this game went from a favourite of mine with amazing renders, to a heap of piling shit all in one update.

And when you combine other facets of how the development went, and the developers seeming thoughts on this whole thing, I cannot recommend this game to anyone with any degree of taste.

This game had so much potential.

Its renders were top tier when it was originally being developed. Now they are above average at best. The best looking adult games are now much better looking.

Like wise the story, it started off strong but the current version it just ends up bad, it does not feel completed at all despite being a 1.0 version. DLC should always be additions to the game not completing the main story. The patron modifications to change the Celia route also are just plain bad and make little sense logically.

Its also not original at all anymore, these land lady stories are a dime a dozen and been done better elsewhere even with the land lady being keen from the start.

Animations are the same as renders. Above average but not up there with the best.

I hope the next game improves to how this was at the start of development. This one just seems rushed to completion with no improvement in renders over its long development.

Oh Loooord! I even not expected, that this game will have released! Wow!
I had played in 2018 and was very pity that game has no end.. But now it's just brilliant event))
So, what I can say about? Narrative, atmosphere and characters in this story very common and unique at same time. But, that's the rules of the genre

Cool models, good renders. Horrible story and pacing.

From week one, you learn via their inner monologues that your mom, your little sister, her best friend and your best friend all sexually crave for you. There are no obstacles to overcome, no seducing needed, no clever tactics to put in place, no stake, no tension, no game.

The way sex scenes mostly happen is that you unlock the conditions to make other characters make a move towards you. Those escalate too quickly without any sense of immersion. To illustrate: with your little sister, it barely takes one scene for her to show you her nipple and another one to receive a blowjob.

One could say that the incest patch is non-official and characters interactions would make sense if they were friends living under the same roof. But the vanilla version still invokes "deep Freudian psychoanalytic" (which is about repressed incest desires and makes little sense if the therapist is talking about MC's "friends") and your character is often described to be a nerd loser and should therefore not be so many women's fantasy from the get go anyway.

This problem is less prevalent for some quests, like with the college's swimmer who insults you, giving you the need to beat her in order to win bets and unlock sex scenes. The execution is unfortunately laughable. The rigged mini-game makes you lose, which unlocks the gym. Once there, you can do one exercise, only once, but it's sufficient to beat her. Next time you talk to her, she annonces you that she trained since her last defeat. However, you cannot simply train on your side; the rigged mini-game immediately start to make you lose. Repeat this chain in order to simply beat her 3 times in total, and a messages displays informing you that it's the end of the content with this character (and this is v1.0). The pacing here will show its sense of rush, as the swimmer is virgin at the beginning but beating her two times gets you to facefuck her in public, and she of course gets nympho-style wet from it midway through.

Let's mention that some of the dialogues displayed some forced meme/pop-culture references, like the gym coach who orally tells you: "take the L + ratio".

When I realized I had more fun trying to get the well-hidden collectibles scattered across the world in freeroaming than farming characters love-points, I came to the conclusion that this game is a below mediocre soulless piece of entertainment.

This is a spit in the direction of the fans, it's a pity for those who were waiting for the final version of the game, I was among the fans and treated version 0.71b perfectly, a lot was not completed, but the game looked promising, the visual was pleasing, news about the development of the game periodically appeared on the ICISTOR website. And so for several years the developer has been pumping out money without releasing anything, please note for SEVERAL YEARS, and here is version 1.0, in which there are no completed lines, promised endings, part of the existing content has been removed, instead of all this we have a release on STEAM, several paywalls and a stump of the game. Please note that the author does not like criticism and believes that he is doing everything right, but it seems to me that it is disgusting when a person who stole so much money does not finish the product, but continues to deceive people without fulfilling promises, but releasing collabs with other games, several parallel projects, etc. It's not 1.0 it's a scam

What a shame, a game in development for so long with an ending people waited YEARS for. The writing started off genuine and almost endearing and dropped off a cliff into some generic pregnancy domination fetish kink. A waste of potential, especially with the burst of content at the final stretch but the writing really lets it down.

Whatever part time "writer" wrote this trash has never had an actual relationship or maybe even conversation. Its like a middle schooler wrote this after watching some porn thinking everyone talks like that all the time. They should be fired and move on to an easier job like cleaning peoples septic tanks. Nothing about this "story" is believable (there is no story, its just try to fuck ppl), nothing is engaging, nothing is memorable, no actual character development. got the virgin, the whore who attracts assholes, the lonely horny wife etc. The pacing is also absolutely ridiculous. Save your time, get the gallery mod, fap to the scenes you prefer and skip the rest.

One of the best VN's out there! And a perfect amount of foot fetish content (that's pretty much entirely optional) as that is exactly what I'm looking for in games like this. It was pleasure to play through and I will definitely be back to replay it in the future

Dead game with rare and bad updates. Dev is making this game for half a decade and still no finish in sight. Update 1.0 has cut content (neighbor teen Isla) and bad endings. No pregnancy. Very tiresome minigames for collecting money.

I played this game even before Caroline's story ended. And at the time, it was a promising game.

Today, the game is a shadow of its former self. The final beta update or whatever it is, is super disappointing. Okay, we've got a shitload of new animation, but the story has taken a real beating. The endings of each storyline are cut to the bone. Special mention to Deliha, which boils down to "ok we fucked, now fuck off", the absence of a harem, the total disappearance of neighbors, which is now limited to "sorry we won't fuck".
"sorry, we won't fuck, I'm a lesbian.
- oh ok, no worries, have a nice life".

In short, I imagine that if you've never played this game, it's a must-have, but for those who've been following it for a long time, it's just a gift that you receive without any feeling. Like that Amazon gift card you get at Christmas, because the person on the other side just wants to seem nice, but isn't really interested in you.

This game had huge potential but the developer just decided to kill it. The game had a lot of promises that ultimately weren't fulfilled. The whole "ending" (if you can call it that) is extremely rushed and it shows that the developer sat on his ass and did nothing all those months and years while he was taking money from his patrons. The fact that the game has rather nice visuals and animation unfortunately doesn't save this game. It's a shame

+I totally hate the money system in this game

Please don't waste your time and money on this game, it's not worth it

The game certainly had potential, and that potential still exists, despite not quite measuring up to more recent projects. It's understandable given its age, but even after playing the final version, it still leaves an impression of being unfinished. This isn't just about the absence of pregnancy scenes; it's more about the incomplete storylines for each girl. It seems like there's a need for some sort of epilogue for each character. For instance, if you choose to pursue a serious relationship with one of the girls, it shouldn't simply end, leaving you with repetitive late-night rendezvous for the same type of scenes.

I sincerely hope the developer reconsiders and doesn't plan to conclude the game in this manner. Adding a decent ending for at least the girls that have a relationship status of 4 hearts and up, would greatly enhance the overall experience. I hope this is what the pregnancy DLC is about and that it is not simply a sex scene and done.

Additionally, if the intention is to create a taboo game, it's important to ensure that it truly feels taboo. Interestingly, I found the game more enjoyable without the incest patch, as the girls didn't behave as if the main character was their brother or son at all. So Celia's storyline was the most enjoyable, and even then you need to turn your brain off to enjoy it.

A game that disappoints you is worse one that is merely bad. This game started strong, with an alright story and some amazingly designed women. But then the delays happened. First irregular updates, then no updates for YEARS at a time. Now we have the "final" product, which has no ending (let alone the promised pregnancy/harem endings), has multiple storylines that were cut, and has forced cuck content if you want to finish content with Linda (specifically, you have to have sex with her while her obese bald husband watches). The grinding for money is a total pain unless you cheat, there's over half a dozen weekend events but you can only do one per week, and of course there's permanently missable content in a game with little to no replay value.

A game that stagnates will get left behind and this did worse than stagnate; it rotted.

[i'm sorry if my grammar giving you a headache, english is not my strongest suit.]

Oh boy... Where do I even begin…

Let's start with the game's Story:

Part 1:
Part 2:
Graphics:
To this day, the game still looks good! (sure some hair models are low poly but still better than the most.)

Audio:
As generic, 2018 as it can get!

What about the content we have waited for so long!?
With a sad heart, this is the part where my 2-star rating will start making sense,
We wait how many years for this? 5 years? 7 years? 75% is still the same.
Not to mention, to wrap up the game, some characters content got cut out or even left out. (Luckily not the main characters...)
We didn't even get the orgy or the promised pregnancy content.
So yeah... another good project left to rot, and it is what it is.

Next time, chose wisely who to support, indie developers NEED YOU.
Don't Spend your hard-earned cash on the people that doesn't give enough fuck to spend 1 minute explaining WHY THE FUCK are they going off radar or when will they come back.
Sure, ICSTOR got a shit hand with this project, but he didn't even try to make it right...
Even before his personal problems, he half-assed his old projects too.
This is how a Hero goes to zero.

IS THIS GAME WORTH YOUR MONEY AND TIME? HELL NO!

Game had tons of promise, but the dev is milking his subs for every penny. He went AWOL for years necro'd his abandonded game and gave everyone one count it one new render just so his subs would come back and he could milk that cash cow one last time while promoting his new game scam.

simply the best RenPy game so far created. Great different characters, beatuiful models and animations. Sadly it was delayed but waiting for a DLC's or something like that will worth waiting ;-) Caroline and Linda are ten out of ten stars.

Recently restarted this sad excuse for a game since the crook finally released the last update after the 87th delays. What can I say ? Not much really changed except the impressive amount of bugs.

The story remains the same. The Main Character, aka some kind of repulsive underdeveloped preteen midget with a creepy rapist smile, is an actual sex offender trying to get away with numerous crimes like blackmailing, sexual harrassment, rape, trespassing, and corporate espionage in order to fuck his teacher, his sisters and his mother.

Yeah, it's a stupid as it sounds. I know there is a certain suspension of disbelief required when you play this type of games, but there is no amount of drugs in the world enough to get someone that despicable having consensual sex with something more attractive than a boar.

What about the writing itself ? It's a mix of pacing issues since the sandbox systme forces you to wait whole day and farming money with mini-games to unlock any kind of progression. Flat dialogues, boring premise and a lack of substance. I must add that some paths have been abandoned or don't even get a proper ending. (but hey, there will be some paying DLCS HURRAY !!! )

The only thing of value in this "game" were the renders but now ? It's average to sub-par at best. This game has never been one of the best game on this site but now it doesn't even belong to the top 200.

Icing on the cake, the Dev kept delaying the game for months to "fix the bugs" but in the end his last update is filled with more bugs than a Bethesda game. Speaking of a finale middlefinger.

The fact that some people here are rating this scam more than one star has definitely proven than Mankind is a species doomed.
