VN - Ren'Py - Moonripple Lake [v0.352] [BCG]

One of the best NTS games out there. 5/5 easily. Great potential, hot girls, hot scenes, good pacing. Has both sides of the relationship exploring others.

It just really hit all the boxes for me. Also, the dev seems active and obviously going a great job. Just getting better and better. It's currently ramping up the tension and creating some antagonists which is great, can have amazing payoff later.

The way the develop creates tension is awesome, some smart scenes and good pacing that's just right imo.

Can't wait for more!

Excellent game. The art is amazing. Great writing. I like the take on the NTS genre. There's a few hours of non-stop good content here. Thank you.

I'm gonna tease you for that last star, though. Would you consider giving us the option to NOT avoiding sleep-fucking Suzy? Come on, she's only half-asleep. Probably wet-dreaming about the day, just like you... She'd love it!

So, Moonripple Lake… where do I even begin? At first, I thought it’d be just another porn game, but boy, was I wrong. Sure, it’s packed with steamy moments, but it’s also way more than that. It’s fun, it’s cheeky, and, to be totally honest, it’s a bit of a guilty pleasure.

Let’s talk about the art—sexy, smooth, and honestly just gorgeous. The characters? Charismatic and downright enticing. But it’s not just about the obvious. The game’s got humor, a surprisingly well-written story, and a vibe that makes it feel more like a naughty little adventure than a typical adult game.

And okay, maybe the joke about curing ED was a bit much, but let’s just say, it was definitely a relaxing experience. No rush, no pressure—just an enjoyable escape into a world where everything’s a little more fun, a little more flirty.

In short, if you're looking for a game that’s playful, steamy, and actually kind of charming, Moonripple Lake hits the spot. It’s like a sexy vacation for your mind—totally unexpected but totally worth it. Definitely recommend if you’re in the mood for something a little naughty with a side of fun.

The game’s execution of scenes is severely lacking, with no meaningful buildup or tension, making the narrative feel completely rushed and unearned. The characters' constant horniness borders on absurdity, reducing the game to a parody of the genre rather than a serious narrative experience. There’s no sense of progression or effort required; everything is handed to the player, draining the gameplay of any real engagement or satisfaction.

For experienced players, the game fails to deliver anything substantial. The repetitive character tropes, especially their overly eager willingness to please the MC, quickly become tiresome and predictable. Even the few attempts at decent character writing, such as the MC’s wife, fail to balance out the overwhelmingly weak and formulaic storytelling.

The inclusion of sandbox elements and horror themes feels wasted due to poor implementation. The writing is riddled with grammatical errors and flat dialogue, which completely breaks immersion and makes the story feel shallow and uninspired. The controversial themes, particularly the MC’s fixation on sharing his partner, escalate in a way that feels forced and tasteless, alienating players who expect any semblance of nuance or depth.

Overall, the game’s potential is buried under a mountain of poor choices, lazy writing, and a lack of originality. It’s difficult to recommend to anyone looking for quality or creativity, as its flaws far outweigh any redeeming qualities.

Review version v0.352

This is my first AI game I must say im impressed. While still not a fan over Daz it had very nice art work. The sandbox is very basic and simple nothing annoying. I really like the sharing dynamic in this game so within the relationship it's very different than most sharing games ive seen. Suzie I girlfriend is such a fun character she alone makes this game worth it if you care okay with sharing games.

The story there seems to be some kind of mystery or supernatural element to it which I do like so far. Only negative thing I did dislike was there was a forced Halloween special dream I found it rather annoying and added now value. Otherwise nothing I don't like so far. If you like sharing or okay AI games give this one a try. This is up there with my favorite sharing games I look forward to updates for now.

really good artwork (don't care if it's AI. good is good.)

Decent enough story. Decent enough characters (the design of the main girl is just.... *chef's kiss*)

Anxiously awaiting each upcoming release. good job BananaCream <3

I like the graphics, story, NTR part is also good, would like to see continuation .
I hope this creator will make updates not once half of the year, like some of creators doing now! recommend to try this game

It’s an excellent game with beautiful art. The story so far seems to be well paced. It has a nice variety of characters. Though it’s still early in development, I’m very much so looking forward to more content.

Really enjoyed the game so far. The art is great, the girls all look good, tough I wouldn't mind some more mature characters. The map and locations look good and are easy to navigate. I like the story and the horror element is great.

If I'd have any criticism, it's that the girls are all a bit too eager for my taste. Some tension build up would be nice.

Looking forward to updates.

Gosh, that's what I was looking for! The game itself is very entertaining, has beautiful models, and has an interesting history that made me excited for more. It was definitely a great start!
Keep up the good work!

I usually don't rate a game at such early development, but I am really impressed by this game and have to leave a 5 stars here

I hate porn games require player to do a lot of filler actions, a lot of unnecessary clicking around the map, this game really show how roaming should be done. The MC is tasked to find some drinks, he goes around the town, spicy encounters in every corner! And the map is so beautifully crafted also make it pleasant.

And this game actually has a story that is interesting enough to make me curious how things will turn out next. The whole cult history, haunted house and the girl I suspect is a mermaid remind me of the movie Dagon XD

So far every girls appeared are memorable and recognizable, which is another rare quality you can find in erotic VN XD

I really liked the beginning of this game and I'm curious to see how the relationships and the story will evolve. It's more of a VN than a sandbox with RPG elements, but I like that too. Although choices or attribute systems like a corruption gauge can be nice and enriching for the gameplay of a VN as well. But I put 5 to support the development. Congratulations again and keep it up!

Another hidden (or perhaps, not due to the increasing amount of positive reviews) gem I found among the immense pile of trash.
Everything about this VN screams of hard work, time and love that were invested by the developer.
The art is great. The image of sleeping Suzie would make a good wallpaper. Also she's cute and hot AF. Memorable girl.
So far I really enjoyed how the plot goes.
Added to wishlist on Steam and waiting for a release. Wish you best luck. Please, make an artbook or something.

Really great art, great characters and character design and a fun and chill story that doesnt take itself too seriously It revolves around trying to corrupt your hot and horny girlfriend. The fit and nicely thick girls and women look awesome!

"Currently one of the most visually captivating games I've played so far. 10/10. I can't wait for the sequel. If the developer adds more animations, this game will definitely be in my top 3 adult games that I've ever had the chance to try. I highly recommend supporting the publisher, as I can't wait for the continuation… Hats off!

Review for MoonRipple Lake [v0.3]

Design/Renders: The designs are fresh and unique. Although it’s AI-generated art, it stands out from other visual novels with polished and distinctive renders. I’m usually not a fan of AI-powered VNs, but this one truly piqued my interest. Rating: 4/5

Audio/Music: The soundtrack fits the setting well. Most of the time, the background music compliments the scenes perfectly, enhancing the atmosphere and immersion. Rating: 5/5

Characters: While most characters fall into the typical trope of being overly eager for the MC, which can get repetitive and boring quickly, they are visually appealing and really hot. However, it becomes predictable when they mainly exist to please the MC. Some characters are well-written, like the MC’s wife, but this leads to a downside that I'll cover on in the story section. 3/5

Story/Writing: I appreciated the horror elements and the sandbox-style night free roaming around the house, which adds to the suspense. However, the writing itself is lacking and infuriating at points, and this alone prevents me from fully enjoying the avn. There are several grammatical errors, and the conversations often feel plain or lack depth. Additionally, the story depicts the MC as someone who enjoys sharing his partner with other men, even encouraging her to strip naked and bend over for others to watch. What started as mild teasing in the beginning escalated to scenes where the MC goes so far as to let a police officer grope his wife to avoid a bloody ticket. This focus on sharing or “NTS” (netorase) like the developer says isn’t my taste. Rating: 2/5

Conclusion: It feels like the developer may have a preference for this “NTS” fetish or being a cuck in general, as it’s heavily pushed throughout the game onto the players. A switch to disable “wife sharing” content would’ve been a welcome option, especially since a "femboy content off" toggle was included. This could help maintain immersion for those who aren’t interested in sharing themes. Overall, I wouldn’t recommend this VN to players who dislike the idea of sharing the FMC like myself. Final Rating: 3/5

Ps: it has potential if dev decides to a turn off the sharing content for those that don't like it.

The artistic skill displayed in this game is top notch on every front... every single front.

Flow - 5 stars

Absolutely top notch game developer here!!

So far this game is very very good. Characters are actually well written, the girls are absolutely alluring, the story seems to be developing into interesting direction. The AI art is getting worringly good.

The designs are good, but the scenes seem to be mediocre. There's absolutely no build-up for the scenes. Everyone is horny all the time. It plays almost as a parody of many of the games that are published in this site. You don't have to work for anything. It's just given to you.

I wouldn't advise it if you are a seasoned or avid consumer of the games that are made available here.

The game has potential, but the writing would need to have a radical change - among other things.

I really like this game, it checks a lot of boxes for me.

Story/Character Development: It's very good. A couple transplant to a new town, rent a potentially haunted house, and through exploring the city and its inhabitants learn about a legend that propels the story. You're given a little backstory to the main characters, and some depth to the side characters as they're introduced. There's plenty of choices so far so the reader has full control over over the direction of the game. There's plenty of hot characters, each having a unique look and personality, and just the right amount of tension between the characters; and a nasty antagonist - to spice things up. The pace of the story is on point too - just right.

Technical: The English is very good, no grammar issues that were obvious. I didn't experience any render issues, exceptions or otherwise. I'm still not a complete fan of A.I. images but it seemed to work really well in this game. The artwork was well done., and there's a nice variety of scenery/environments to compliment the story progression. The game has some sandbox elements but they are easy to navigate and fairly intuitive. The UI is typical for Renpy - no problems.

Overall: I'm really impressed and looking forward to more. I'd say this game is a solid 4.5, but since half points aren't possible I'll give a 5 because the developer put a lot of effort into this game... and it shows. Hopefully that same amount of effort will continue.
