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

Story- VN Incest sandbox, the teacher storyline is nice but the rest of it is forgettable or kinda bland outside of the poorly wallpapered over incest kink
Originality- Not very, I think I’ve seen the models reused in a few places, and none of the stories seem very original outside of the revenge/blackmail/domination cycle with the teacher
Art- Good renders in mostly bland positions and locations
Sound- N/A
Voice Acting- N/A
Mechanics- Straightforward VN with some annoying click fest events
Animations- none
Bugs- ran into at least one
Amount of content- several different characters with only one “complete” storyline.
Subjective stuff- Incest is poorly wallpapered over, and it’s hard to ignore. Despite the title there are as many non-milf characters as otherwise.
Recommend playing- No
Since I’ve played it it has both become abandoned and slipped down the ratings significantly. Unforunate for the people who liked it, but I had no intentions of giving it another go.

This VN/Game when it first came out was all about the quality renders. Now there are a 100+ VN's that blow this VN away in renders and animations.
The story is nothing to write home about.
The gameplay is now dated.

If I were rating this VN purely on the merits of the VN that is finished, I would rate it as average. However this VN has been Abandoned and for me - every game that is Abandoned should get a 1 star rating.
What would you rate a meal at a restaurant if it came out only half cooked? What would you rate a movie or a novel if it just stopped somewhere in the middle?
If the Dev ever decides to finish this VN, I am happy to come back and change my rating.

Surprised that i never reviewed this when i first played it several years ago. Decided to replay this and it holds up surprisingly well.

While the visuals are on the dated side they all still look better than 75% of DAZ games out there and the posing and framing of the renders themselves is all again better than most DAZ games. The animations for as old as they are are also still better than what you see in probably 90% of DAZ games and they are all custom animations as well, not the canned ones you see over and over again in a lot of cut and paste DAZ VNs

The game is competently written and the characters are all decently engaging with the sister Caroline probably being the most well done and fleshed out. There isn't really a main narrative so it's more like a bunch of stories that weave in and out of one another. Some of them are done better than others and there are some humorous and engaging moments. Overall the story does enough to lend the porn in the game some weight that makes the scenes more arousing

The porn is great, the scenes are well written, well animated and well framed visually and there is a good amount of them. There isn't a terrible amount of variety as far as kinks are concerned, there's a good deal of male dom a bit of fem dom and then all your standard stuff.

I see lots of complaints about the game being grindy and it's kind of nonsense tbh, especially if you use the mod. The game is a sandbox and as a result you need to go places to unlock events and sometimes you need to wait a day or to, these things take maybe a minute or two. It's not really grindy at all compared to some sandboxes or say an RPGM game.

Finally the elephant in the room with this game, the dev. Frankly he deserves the scorn he's received if not maybe the level of vitriol and it all could have been avoided if he had been more transparent, but i'm reviewing the game not the dev and even if what is here is never finished, this game is still better than most of the DAZ games on this site.

recommended for pretty much everyone, with the caveat that it will likely never be finished. Especially recommended for fans of the incest genre as it is a classic

The only saving grace of this game is its beautiful render and Caroline.

But overall, the game feels mediocre. The conflict about teacher's rejection was unrealistic and the way MC handle the frustration was ridiculous. The dialogues are fine and easy to read but they lacks emotion or impact which makes the game uninteresting.

Mini-games are also a pain in the ass and just drags the game.

Again, what I only liked in the game was Caroline because she was the only character that evokes this feeling of "affection".

I think that there are better games in this site that worth your time.

Beautiful models but poor image quality, outdated interface, unfunny mini-games, and animations could be better. the writing of the MC is something desperate and his physical appearance is not believable to attract all the women in the game. IT WAS A GREAT GAME IN ITS TIME ALTHOUGH TIME HAS MADE IT AG WRONG.

This is just your average game honestly. Abandoning it takes some points off and the game in general is just a grind and the writing is quite bad. It doesn't build up from the bottom up sometimes and the way relationship works or how it progress sometimes feel weak. Kind of feels like the developer just had a boner while developing the game which made them develop something lesser because they were not thinking properly in terms of story, character background, relationship progress.

It doesn't matter though since it has been abandoned. just skip this one.

This game has really nice graphics, good story and concept of the game. Too bad that this game is abandoned. The story lines are not finished and it is a pitty. Sometimes there are some things which are not favourable but otherwise really good game.

I went into Milfy City more or less blind and I knew little about the production history of this game, so I will merely talk about the game itself, not its infamous reputation or that of its dev.
Since I hate grinding I played this with a mod / walkthrough, I have zero patience for sandbox games or grinding money etc.

Milfy City, while famously unfinished, still offers some good amount of content. Much is of course very incomplete, but the routes for the mother, the older and younger sister and the teacher provide a reasonable amount of content. Just don't expect any proper resolution.

The route for the older sister Caroline is the most complete, she is, in my opinion, also the best love interest here, the mother comes second and I had very little interest in the younger sister Sara. The mother is your archetypical big breasted "milf", Caroline is a very curvy version of Lara Croft and Sara is the cute, petite and inexperienced virgin who looks a lot younger than 18, maybe 15? At least none of the family members are bitchy or have an attitude (for the most part).
Then there are several side characters and the MC's teacher Celia who is another main "love interest". I apply that term very loosely here, since the story revolving around Celia is your typical blackmail, molesting, sub/dom, revenge plot that is just all around terrible and nothing I really like. On her route the MC is a complete creep and asshole. And Celia is no better here.

However, all routes in Milfy City are entirely optional, you can focus on just one character or several.
And that is both a strength and weakness here... on the plus side you can freely pick and choose and ignore whomever you don't like. There is also zero drama here, since everyone is completely oblivious about what the MC is doing with other characters.
On the negative side all the various routes exist in isolation, which is less than ideal in your typical family setting. Here the MC can freely engage with his mother and both sisters without any of them knowing about the others. So there is no conflict or confrontation. There are almost zero interactions between the female family members.

If you expect a good story from a game Milfy City isn't what you want. This game has no real story, it's all about grinding through events to progress on the various character routes. Sure, there is some story on the various paths, but it's nothing really worth talking about. You play this game to progress the relationships and unlock scenes, nothing else.

Character models are mostly fine, the MC however looks quite young and I don't know why so many devs make the MC shorter than the mother or older sister. And yes, it's fantasy, but it's never believable that all these older women would lust after such a dorky looking teenager.

There are several things I really don't like.
There are forced kinks in this game, not often, but the Sara route is all about the patented virgin who doesn't want to have actual sex, because she feels not ready for that quite yet (until she eventually is, of course), so she wants anal sex instead, like any good virgin usually does.
And there is nothing you can do to avoid a ridiculous scene on the garage roof at night where the MC and Sara have anal sex. Any young girl dreams of a first time like this.
Other characters like Caroline have options for that, she will eventually tell the MC that she would be fine with anal sex, but you always get a choice and can easily avoid that.

Generally speaking Milfy City follows the overused progression route for intimacy. You know the drill... handjob... blowjob... grinding and rubbing... rinse and repeat several times yadda yadda... and then close to end of the implemented arcs there is actual sex for a few times.

So is Milfy City worth playing even though it's a semi grindy sandbox (just use the mod!) with unfinished arcs and no hope of ever getting a conclusion?

If you are into sandbox style games with pretty characters that are only about unlocking events with various love interests, then sure, Milfy City is ok. The animations are certainly good, there are also proper kissing animations, quite a few of them even, something you still don't get too often.

But forced kinks and a rather nasty (it's probably supposed to be funny) blackmail/molestation/abuse plot involving the teacher Celia may diminish your enjoyment.

And of course it's one of those games with sleep molestation. But you can mostly avoid that.

All in all Milfy City could have certainly be a good game if it had ever been completed and if certain things were not forced upon the player (unless you ignore certain routes completely). As things are it is just another game that overuses tropes seen a billion times elsewhere. Nothing remarkable or particularly memorable.

But you can have shallow fun here if you are ok with sandboxes and some free roam.

And at least the Caroline route offers a hint of closure, you even get the option for a harem or solo pregnancy path at the end of her arc... but that was never implemented. Caroline's romance scenes later in her arc are also pretty good and actually very wholesome. The scenes with the mother are also quite good, but here it's much more about lust and passion, with Caroline it seems to be more about actual love. To a certain degree with Sara as well, but she just looks too young and immature and also acts quite childish in a few scenes. Caroline is the best choice in my opinion, from an age and character perspective.

There are also unfinished side characters like twin sisters, lesbian neighbors etc. you can freely ignore that or see what content is available.

All in all Milfy City is still worth a spin, if you accept what it is. A game without a proper story that is all about grinding and unlocking scenes with more or less pretty looking characters. I cannot tell you how many photo sessons with Caroline I had to go through to progress her route. It becomes a bit tedious. And I wonder how this game would be without the walkthrough / cheat mod (you can give yourself all the money you need). Don't play this without the mod! In my opinion it's essential.

Milfy City in many ways is the perfect example of your standard VN. Unfinished and abandoned. Filled with overused tropes. Forcing kinks on players. With an MC whose behavior changes from dorky but sweet to downright nasty and creepy. This game feels like one big deja vu if you have played various other titles (which may or may not have copied ideas and elements from Milfy City).

This is it. The wellspring of the extremely online phenomenon of porno gaems receiving a ludicrously large amount of crowdfunding, and eventually imploding into a pathetic heap of precum drenched drama and bitterness for all involved. It aaaall started here.

But putting the veritable subculture of shitposting that has accrued around this game to one side.... it's kinda ok...? Like, as the progenitor of 3d land-games in a western context, it actually does sort of live up to its name.

The story has been redone too many times to even be funny anymore, but this is the original and imo still the gold standard. I'm not particularly into the "land" aspect of land-games but this game handles it better than anything else I've played. There's no shitty soap opera or ridiculous unnecessary mystery-thriller subplots about cartoon villain bad guys or moralising/rationalising bullshit (presumably intended to make connoisseurs of really fucked up sexual kinks feel better about themselves). The plot and characters are woven into the lewd content. It's not wholesome, uplifting or enlightening. It's porn I can fap to.

I would complain about the badly designed sandbox gameplay at this point but Lain's excellent WT mod fixes most of the issues in that department.

Anywhey, on to teh sex scenes. Considering when this game started development (the distant pre-covid golden age) they are superlative. The models for most of the main girls - especially the landlady - are very well sculpted. They look unique, proportions are just right, skin textures pop out, poses aren't too awkward etc. The animations rival contemporary 3d land-games in detail and physical fidelity. The sum of moving 3d objects trying to emulate sex is more than it's parts - breasts, tits, limbs and penises rubbing against and into each other actually look how they're supposed to. The backgrounds/environments could be better rendered. Lighting is pretty good throughout. UI is ok but needs a tutorial on how to use items etc (albeit the detailed hints in Lain's mod has that covered).

Nothing much else to say other than: it's the 3d craftsmanship and plot-complements-porno ethos of Milfy City that budding porno game devs should emulate. Rather than reinventing the same land-wheel forever and adding cringey "story-driven" embellishments along the way.

Of course I must point out that the game is not complete, and likely never will be to the satisfaction of anyone who was or is unhealthily invested in it. Still, for what it is, it's good. Play it, fap and move on with your life.

Im surprised the game doesnt have a "parody" tag on it.
Because I cant get a boner when Im laughing my ass off to how ridiculous that "first kiss" was.

Saying it all to a stranger (school psychologist) was even worse.
Like dude, keep those private taboo feelings to yourself.

Script is terrible.
Like is it trying to be a novel romance, or a porn game?
Cant tell with all the mixed up twists in their conversations.

The vibe is complicated.

Although the visuals are great, models are great.
Animations sometimes off, but decent.
Same old, same old.

All in all, the game is just TOO fast paced.

Everything is great in this game from gameplay to animation.
Not a fan of grinding for cash wastes days and time.
Shame its abandoned, really hope its finished one day. Even though i'm new I still enjoyed it

Rev 0.71

I mean what can you say. It's the best porn game out there. Very sad that it basically turned into a scam and moneygrab towards the end.

Assfucking a shy teen with cute tits? Yea!
Reviewing hot lingerie with a big breasted college girl? You betcha!
Threesomes with both two twins and bombshell lesbians? Here ya go!
Everything with very realistic and well made animations.

What really makes this game stand out tho is everything around the porn. MC is hot and likeable, the minigames are OK+, and the extras are extremly fun to watch.

The highlight however is of course Linda, the slutty milf with the best body on this site, constantly looking for the hottest ways to have her way with the young MC.
Her persistense, writing and sheer lust is what makes me be ashamed of how much i have thought about her also outside gaming (Christ...)

You of course need to enjoy some incesty themes to enjoy this game, but it simply must be experienced. Sad where it has gone.

10/10

There's not that much to say, really.
When this game's development started, it was fine regarding renders, animations and, at that time, story as well.
While there were already many sandbox-style incest games, most didn't have that level of quality in production.
By now, several years later, the game isn't up with the better ones anymore, the characters are a cliché of this type of game, basically all tropes. Content, compared to the time of first release, should be way more substantial.
Now the game is abandoned, without an ending, which certainly dulls down the enjoyment of it all, considering it won't have a satisfying conclusion in any way.
It feels like I've read that before, because I have. It seems to be an always repeating occurrence in Western porn game development circles.
The content we got until the game was abandoned, was good back then and even now it was sufficient, but the ending of a game is at least as important as the story so far, in a basically visual novel/dating sim and there this abandoned game fails, like many others.
I give two stars, because what is there now works and isn't bad to look at, but given it is the final state of the game, anything more would be giving it too much credit.

I really loved this game in its hay day, but the last several updates were lukewarm at best, and now this decline in quality culminates in an abandoned tag. It's a shame, this game had so much more potential.

I'll keep this one short.
When the game first came out 4 years ago - it was promising, the quality was high, the renders looked great, and overall it was ahead of the genre by a lot with subpar writing being his only really weak point.
That's in the context of 2018.

Now, in 2022 - It's subpar in every way (and abandoned), there are plenty of games that do every single thing better, that has more content and are still in active development or are just complete.
The genre progressed immensely while this project was left to rot.
In 2022 - It's not worth your time. don't bother unless you're interested to see how far the genre has come since than.

This is a difficult one.

The erotic scenes have great animation, but the context and the rest of the game really lets them down.

The character models are a little over the top for my liking, but in terms of quality they're generally rather good.

The writing is average at best in my view, and the story seems to be nothing more than "guy wants to fuck". If you're not into story then you'll probably rather enjoy the game.

My main issue is that the navigation is so much more annoying than it needs to be. Having to be outside and on the map screen means that you have to click through a lot of environments unnecessarily. When it gets to night you have to manually return home and click the bed rather than just being able to click somewhere and get to the next day. There's also no shortucts for moving between rooms in a location, so that's more clicking. Maybe that's just the style for some of these more open types of games, but I'm really not a fan.

The card hunting game is a little absurdly difficult if you're trying to do it without a walkthrough.

This game is basically no different than what it was 3 years ago. Technically 4 years now. Everythng is outdated and there sure are better renpy games with much more involvement out there to waste your time on this.

The content is good, but suffers tremendously from too much padding. It's hard to figure out where to go a lot of the time, so an Objectives list might be nice. It also often feels like all of my events are at the same time of the day and then the other parts of the day have nothing going on. It's also really annoying having to navigate to the outside of the house just to go to the overworld. And having to select an item in the bag to use it rather than just using it automatically is annoying. I've also had a hard time finding new places on the map.

Having said that, the characters are fun and the smut scenes are good. The art style is nice and there's a lot of content. If some of these issues can be addressed, this game will be a real killer.

The game (v0.71b) has good renderings, the characters are beautiful, and I can't complain about the mechanics, although I think there should be more options that could affect the story.
What really bothers me is that such a popular game with so long since it was released doesn't have regular updates, a lot of content isn't finished which is frustrating, and the lack of commitment from the developer(s) is, without a doubt, what most impoverishes the experience with the game.

This game has some of the best graphic content available. The story is great, the amount of gameplay with each one of the four main characters is incredible and for once, there is no grind (HOORAY!). I recommend that you use Lain's mod because it makes every part of the game more enjoyable.
