Ren'Py - Mothers & Daughters [v0.6.2.4] [Spin256]

I think the single word to sum up this game is: Ambition.

The Dev clearly has tons of talent, and I love that they can make the situations sexy and thrilling WITHOUT just jumping into full penetrative sex five seconds after meeting the MC. There's a huge scope and scale. Tons of LI, tons of paths, meaningful choices and consequences.

However, if I'm being honest, the game is too ambitious. Even a AAA AVN creator like Mr. Dots or DPC would struggle to bring all these paths together, keep all these LIs separate and useful and most importantly, produce the game on a reasonable timescale. This dev is definitely going to fall short. My prediction, it gets abandoned rather than finished, which is why I knocked off a star. That said, I hope I'm wrong, cause the game is very impressive otherwise.

Pros:
Decent storyline
sexually charged situations
Above average renders

Cons:
CONTINUOUSLY ASKS whether you look at chest or underskirt CONSTANTLY! Please stop!
Prerequisites not met for this choice ?? really?

Great game, with quite interesting tags. It will be interesting to see the different paths of walkingthrough.
The picture in the game is nice, the characters are revealed quite well, huge variation, even in such a small version.
Overall on my wishlist on Steam, as soon as the game is in Beta, I will definitely buy the game. Also hoping for various purges or achievements on Steam

Same problem here as with the DIK game. Great game but so many routes means a lot more dev time between updates it seems. In this case the content update pace is absolutely glacial. That's a bummer because this game looks like it will be fun. In 10-12 years.

It's so hard for me to rate this properly because of two main, very competing factors: the actual concept and foundation itself vs the actual content present and the potential for future content.

The concept and foundation is fantastic. I think if the quality of the foundation was throughout the entire project, it would be at LEAST a 9/10. Over a dozen women, most of them MILFs that actually show aging instead of being just a 25 year old someone calls "mom", and the ability to choose who you want to spend time with.

The issue comes in everything after that: For an AVN that is over 2 years old, the sexual content present is basically all teasing and flashing. Currently, updates run through maybe 4 conversations, and then abruptly end. It would be easy to simply blame the dev of laziness, but I think another issue is that they overestimated their abilities. Spin256 adding so many women at the same time means that his attention has to be split on so many different threads. Combine this with the amount of deviations he adds, and not only does he have to try and make an equal amount of content for several different paths and women, but also the player probably won't see half of the stuff he actually adds.

The worst example of this is the fact that at the college, early on you choose which classes you'll take. This means that you won't see the MAJORITY of the content relevant to the classes. Why? If you're actually doing a degree, most of your classes are pre-requisites during the first year anyway, but even just as a GAME you shouldn't be dividing your content up so much.

Purely for concept alone I'd rate this a 9/10, but as a product now, it's probably a 6/10.

Lots of adorable and hot characters with so many choices which actually has some effect on the story. The idea is brilliant and the game has been pretty solid so far. Even tho there are not much contents yet, i still had fun playing it. Hopefully the dev will keep improving the game

Brilliant game with plenty of options. Your choices carry weight which is what i would expect and can lock you out of chasing after a girl... or woman. I like that the older women actually look like older women and not some 20 year old pretending to be a 40 something. HOWEVER there isn't enough lewd content yet, plenty of boob shots and upskirts and when the action will be implemented it will make this game top tier but bear in mind if you play now at the point of this review you are only setting yourself up for which chatacters you want to persue. Keep up the good work on my 3rd play through and still seeing new scenes i didn't get before.

With all the flaws others have mentioned and then taking forever to update and said update breaking the game and requiring a restart equals instant delete and unwatch. Note to Dev - Maybe next time be a little less ambitious due to your skill level.

I really wanted to rate the game highly, but there is so many flaws in the design that forces my hand and I have to disagree with such current high rating of the game.
Biggest flaw in the design - trying to take on too many things at once! Rather than focusing on couple of characters, their development and scenes, the developer decided to take on a ton of characters, complicated relationships and try to develop everything at once! The conditions and branches makes the game very slow to develop as seen after years of development we are still in teasing phase and do not have anything concrete.

The story and plot also falls short as things are rushed and seems we want to introduce some characters and get them out of the way as soon as possible, hence characters feel too gullible and not react to sexual jokes and passes made like any other person would to a stranger.

Game uses multiple mechanics to track progress, have gallery, have tasks, trophies etc. but the UX is so unfriendly that people get confused what "freeapp" is and why I cannot sleep to go to next day. This is just bad design decisions and cluttering the UX with so many choices that have no impact in the game and they are more like demos, rather than flushed out features.

Overall game has a lot of potential, but requires repolishing already created content to be playable, as new content would not save this game in my opinion.

I don't like being mean but I have to be honest. That was not good. Only redeeming qualities would be a few of the characters being attractive and it having some sandbox because I like sandbox VNs. It's not the worst grammar and spelling I've seen on this site but it's still pretty damn distracting.

- the writing is boring and mediocre so I immediately assumed we weren't here for a "compelling" story and just here for the fap
- most of the characters look terrible
- too many characters so it's not like there's any content anyway
- broken English

• It says "college" so I'm assuming the setting is supposed to be somewhere in America. Yet it's not just broken English, it's broken British-English. "Bloody, bloody, bloody. I've I've I've"
• "hers" is already possessive. You don't need to write "her's"
• Waaaay too many statements ending with question marks. You add question marks to the end of questions, not statements. Otherwise, it just sounds passive-aggressive and dumb. Making everyone sound like some dumbass teenager from California.
• Can't get prepositions right either. "On reception", "foot in my crotch"

If the renders and writing were better, I'd give it a higher score and probably even just proofread the script myself but it's not worth the trouble. I hadn't even seen any sex scenes yet and I'd suddenly reached the end of the current version.

Great start to the game. Can't wait to see more. I really like all the different choices and I'm really looking forward to the game being more complete to see the reactions from the mothers/daughters. Keep it up and this could be one of the premier adult games.

Not sure how this is rated so high on average as I find everything in it below or well below what I would consider average for F95. Sorry Dev. your writing and especially your renders are not very good. Charcters seem to have been hit with an ugly stick. The story is just weak and uninteresting. Although I guess different strokes for different folks. Good luck.

Again, I find myself disagreeing with F95. This game was just fine, but not great as of right now. It's heavily focused on MILFS, and 'cest, two tropes that have been done to death. The writing is, at times, clever, but also riddled with typos, and the character designs are very uncanny, with even the supposedly young people looking very old in the face. Seriously, the MC looks to be about 45 and the other college kids seem to be in their early to mid-30s.

Another issue with the writing is that everyone is kinda' just insanely perverted and accepts wincest as a thing. Like, the (non) sister and (non) aunt openly wanna bang the MC from the get go, and it's like, doesn't that kinda' ruin the taboo of the whole thing?

I'm sorry, Dev. This just wasn't for me. I'm clearly in the minority, though. Best of luck!

Honestly, this game has a lot of potential. You can choose the difficulty of the game, each LI´s has a particular affinity (some girls prefer you to be good, others not so much), and the renders are quite acceptable (except the MC when he was a boy. OMG, he's horrible).

I hope the developer succeeds with this game because it has the potential to be very good.


P.S. 1 - (Used Google Translate cause English isn´t my native language)

P.S. 2 - The old/mature women are amazing. Realistic, not some perfect dolls with gigantic boobs/asses

It has potential, but so far its quite short and there is practically no lewd content in the game, unless you count some panty shots and cleavege close ups as lewd content. Not really a fan of locking content behind stat points, and the game makes you choose between college classes and locations you can visit which limits the characters you can interact with. Kinda seems to go against the sandbox design the game seems to aim for. In order to see everything you will probably need multiple playthroughs, and i just dont have the patience for that. It honestly ruins the game a bit for me.
There are a lot of characters, probably too many if all of them are planned to have content, but i like most of them, mostly the moms and immediate family members.
The story seems pretty straightforward so far, nothing out of the ordinary, and the writing is also does its job.
Im looking forward to see more, but so far its quite underwhelming.

I just finished version 0.4.0 and I love the game. What I like the most is that there are many girls who are sexy of all ages and with completely different appearances.
hen I like that the choices seem to matter here

Well, what can I say, it's just fun to play. All the lewdness around mothers and daughters, one hell of a fitting title, it has a very pleasant humorous, easy-going vibe that made me fall immediately for it.

Good game, the choices actually impact the story and there are many different choices making it a game i'll definitely need to replay. Good renders and pace.

- Good Renders
- Decent story
- Choices have an impace

Think the only con I can think of is it has no music which honestly isn't a big issue, The MC does look kinda odd, but i've seen stranger things lol

This is impressive. I must say i played from the start and i was dumbfounded by the level of detail and attention put into this game. If this could even be called a game at this level... No no no, just listen me out, i don't try to put down his work or insult what the dev did here, on the contrary, i am really in awe with what he put together as of 0.2.1 version. There is not a lot of sexual content (although the teasing is top notch!!!) but the dev constructed a well defined and very complex framework on which to build upon and i am very intrigued to see where this will lead to. The models are very well done, it's about milfs, who doesn't love milfs? and there is some whiff of NTR also, which is the cherry on top of the cake (before haters gonna hate, the NTR is avoidable so quit complaining and let people enjoy their lovely kinks) and also some mix of daughters in between, oh my, this is getting out of hand here! In the good way! But as i said, what impresses me the most is the web of intricacies and alternative routes and stats to take into account, which are all very well explained in the menu, with different levels of difficulty to please even the most masochistic of us. I am in love with what the dev did here, not for the content which i played now as of v0.2.1 but for the bases that he constructed on which to build upon for the future versions and the level of teasing he plays on us that is so godlike with a natural flowing, credible, not cheesy story backed up by intriguing mechanics, diverging routes and pure temptation of the models.
Well played sir dev! I'm not a rich guy, on the contrary, i'm a working man, i must admit inever supported anyone on patreon, not because i wouldn't loved to, but because finances, although i offered many coffees and such as a one timer, but you sir... you need to be kept in the game, i know it's only the beggining for this adventure and i hope more will join me in offering you support on patreon and hopefully we'll see this jewel, this pearl in the making, taking shape and bring us lots of joys and good moments.
Thank you for your work dev! Keep doing god's work!

Review of Ver 0.2

I like it alot.
You meet alot of girls and moms...there is for sure something for everyone if you go by the looks or behavior.
Visually all characters are looking solid to great,except the MC which imo does look bit to old. Maybe it should be like that or it might be revisited but its not a biggy.
There is alot of replayibilty as it seems every choice you pick,has a consequence and affects next choices in context.
You might want to revisit specific choices to see the outcome in the next scenes or choices presented later on.
The fact that you cannot get both,the mom and the daughter(it seems every pro decision for the daughter is a con point for the mom), and you have to balance your decisions is imo a great idea.
The game has already a great foundation.
5* from me.
