VN - Ren'Py - Ms.Denvers [v0.11] [Pop Toc]

This is a very typical adult visual novel. Imagine a bored milf, in her forties looking for some spice in her life. She will go to a gym and have some adventures there, then she will go to a nightclub, then she'll go shopping and have a scene in the changing room, then she will return home and will be spied on the bathroom by some horny teenager. You have seen it many times unless it is your first adult game.

The game is also a slowburner and you will have to wait quite a lot to see the first full sex in it. To be honest this slow tension building has its charm so you actually may like it or dislike it.

But the graphics are good.

Ok... let me edit this as the later updates are quite different from the very rough start.

This VN starts out really REALLY tropey. The first few scenes all read like a setup for a porn film scene. It doesn't help that Wanda has unrealistically big boobs, which is a plague in these games that just won't go away. Over time, her proportions improve though, as does the writing. Overall, it's very slow burn. Apart from the start, it really only sets up relations between the protagonists, which is important for this kind of game, but if you are looking for porn scenes, you are probably wrong here for some time.

What REALLY stands out is the art. The facial expressions are among the best you'll see in any game and this is a showcase why this is important. It adds relatability unlike you have seen in other games. All the characters have reasonable depth and look great. Even the men, which is rare. Some of the guys are ridiculously hot (as are the women but that is a given, right?)

So, once you are past the rough start, it turns into a slice of life kinda game. I was absolutely prepared for the plumber to turn up to lay pipe in her kitchen in the beginning, but that might still happen in a later patch.

Don't get discouraged if Ms. Denvers plays like watching 'Saturday Night Beaver' from your Dad's VHS collection at the beginning. It really does improve over time.

A very adult tale, not because have tons of lewd stuff, but all the drama the MC has in mind about her family her work, and her school students (And the pressure she suffers because everyone ends up falling in love with her, because of her beautiful looks, and her sweet old-fashioned strong personality). The game is a great promise, I do hope to play it completed someday. And yes, the game is adult, not because porn (so far) but because of the strong theme that involves a lot of taboos that question what is right and wrong in ethics and morals in a family and at work.

Strengths
Rendering: Excellent
Writing: Excellent - no boring dialogues
Vibe and atmosphere: excellent
Appearance of MC : Very excellent
MC's personality: very very very excellent
Story: Excellent, not boring at all
Appearance of other models: Nice - no ugly
Personality of other models: Some of them are excellent, some of them are nice,some of them are average
Relationship tension: very high

weak points :
Teasing: The quality of teasing is excellent in some updates and not good in some updates
Lesbians: There is too much focus on lesbians, this is not enjoyable for me and the majority

The game is really well done.
The MC is very beautiful and hot. She looks classy and well educated so she doesn’t immediately gives any idea of her being a slut, it makes it possible to choose a path and see how she develops. Another thing that I believe it’s a good thing, it’s that the paths are exclusive so that players picks one and focus on just that one and be able to avoid any content from the other paths into the one preferred.

Another wanna be adult game.
The delivery pace is dreadful.
The art is very fine, visually looks very good.
The plot... hmmm.. probably I had more excitement filling my tax return.
Sex scenes I cannot really comment, the game can be barely considered adult.

Anyway it serves a certain audience of people that are really patient and will to wait years for a story development.
It is fine.. but there are too miss in order to me to give a better mark

This game is beautiful in terms of visuals. I don't remember seeing a single bad-looking character. The MC is crazy attractive like very 10/10 looking. Story is good, nothing too out there or crazy unique but not bad at all. It's hard to get over how good this game looks. In the scene where a co-worker was smoking in the mc's office. I had to pause for a bit because it just looked so good. Hard to explain but the scene just looked really cool with the smoke and character. So far, it has been great and am looking forward to future updates.

I admit, this game has me genuinely conflicted. It's so very close to great, but due to a few glaring flaws it falls to merely good. This isn't to say that the game isn't worth your time, but players should go in with their eyes open.

Let's start with the Cons:

• As of the time of this review (v0.6.9, Mar 27, 2024), neither the protagonist nor her family have had any sex. Lots, and lots, and lots, and lots of teasing, but no actual sex. Not even making out. It's akin to one of those rom-com animes where the "one true pairing" finally kiss and (gasp) hold hands (scandalous!) in the finale after several seasons of build-up.

• All of that build-up and teasing means that there are also a lot of scenes intended to provide character and relationship building, but eventually begin to feel either redundant or like filler. It feels as though the dev is deliberately avoiding making meaningful progress with their meta-plot and characters.

• On the topic of characters, holy crap is this a large cast of characters. There are literally over 20 non-incidental characters, including POV characters. This would be impressive if they were implemented and developed well, but unfortunately far too many characters are introduced, teased for future content or plot, and then forgotten. It's one "Chekhov's Gun" (Chekhov's Dildo in this case?) after another, and it's positively unnerving. Again, it's as if the Dev is either avoiding committing to their plot and main characters, or possibly that they're suffering ADD game development design.

Now for the Pros:

• This game is absolutely gorgeous, and it is massive. As mentioned before there are an incredible number of characters, but despite that, each model is compelling, sexy, unique, and positioned well. The dev not only knows anatomy, but they understand kinetics and how to stage a scene. The backgrounds and environmental assets are also beautiful. The dev truly pays attention to visual detail. There are very, very few games that as visually well put together as this one.

• The characters are developed like real literary characters, rather than basic, two-dimensional masturbatory aids. They're each given personalities, histories, merits and flaws. Even side characters come across with depth, as if they have a story to tell. This is a double-edged sword as mentioned in the cons, but the game is still better for the development than to have none at all, or worse, cringe-worthy quality character building.

• I didn't encounter a single bug. This speaks to a remarkable amount of polish and care on the part of the Dev. Granted, this game isn't terribly complicated and is more of a kinetic novel insofar as while there are choices, they're more to continue down various paths or remove the protagonist from those paths per the player's wishes. They are also very, very obvious (which is good). There isn't necessarily a spaghetti plot cluster fuck of ambiguous choices that demands a walkthrough. Despite the quagmire of a plot and less sex than a Jehovah's Witness tupperware party, the game feels as though it is very clean and well-designed.

It's possible that the Dev is simply making an epically huge game and what we've seen so far is still merely a proverbial Act 1, and that in subsequent acts all of the teasing will be paid in full -- repeatedly, salaciously, graphically, and in vast quantities -- and if so then I will happily revise this review. However, at this time, this game just isn't there yet for me.

TLDR; if you want an incomparable tease with beautiful graphics, but no meaningful interaction, play this game.

If you're looking for your titillation to eventually achieve culmination, look elsewhere for now.

To be honest, this game, for me, is really just average. The dev is talented and they have put together a good looking, cohesive story with some decent dialog and great looking characters.

Otherwise, there is nothing original here. While this may be at the top of this kind of genre, it's still the same story. Hot, recently single MILF who is suddenly confronted with a multitude of opportunities to be with men, women and young adults.

Yawn...

I am sure there will be a lot of people who love this, and perhaps I have grown tired of seeing women protagonist all basically share the same story, but there is nothing new here, It just didn't grab my attention.

The dev is talented and I wish them luck. I will probably keep an eye out for it in the future, but it is not one of those VNs where I can't wait to see what happens next. I can already tell you what happens next in this one.

Regardless, it is worth a download to make up your own mind. Just don't expect anything original.

Good luck to the dev!

Up to version 6 now... and there's still not a single lewd scene! You see 2 female characters topless for a couple frames, but that's it for a game that probably takes an hour if you read the entire thing,

The female MC is amazingly hot and the rest of the girls look great, the premise of a lonely high school principle MILF is sexy, and the writing is pretty solid (although the son's a bit awkward), but there is zero actual progression just more build-up.

This game could be amazing and I'm not surprised there are so many 5 star reviews, if only to encourage the Dev and keep people checking out new updates... but to go this long without any sexy scenes is actually annoying.

+ renders are ok, nothing spectacular compared to other games i played
+ Terrance - best written character in the game
+ lesbianism is avoidable
+ Wanda is beautiful..

- ..and that's all she can offer, she is so fucking boring. Conversations between characters even more, not to mention her sometimes crazy behavior - some guy accidentally drop a ball in her pool, and she went full rage on him. Very mature
- everyone is a fucking simp there. They compliments her too much, it's monotonous and ridiculous
- music isn't good
- Wanda's panic button triggers every time when things are getting spicy
- everyone fall for her too fast, it looks unnatural (especially family members)
- straight content is poorly done. Game also should be more focused on this stuff
- no real lewd scenes, only some boring girl masturbation

I'm only here for good straight content and for now it's one big disappointment. Writing in this game it's also not so good, maybe this will change in the future when Wanda finally will be completely corrupted.

interesting game, the graphics are good, the plot is the classic cliché.
the dialogues are good,
but some situations are a little forced, like the swimming pool scene; (by the way: does everyone in the house always have a swimming pool?)
However I will continue to follow it.
I can't say anything about waiting times because it's the first time I've played it.

Finally, another elite game has joined the world of 'Literary Smut'. Wanda is a BEAUTY.

PROS: The writing is really good, which is so refreshing. Natural dialogue, really interesting plots for most of the characters, each LI has their own personality and is well crafted. Although it can be inconsistent at times (Randy, Nicole) it has become stable in later releases. And hopefully those characters will have improved appearances in the future.

The renders are some of the best I've ever seen. Dev is really gifted and all the girls are gorgeous. I also like the mix of Daz and Blender. Unique feel to the images.

CONS: Pacing......this is a good slow burn, well crafted incest, nice ccorruption from her student, BUT it's starting to taking too long. I hope this isn't a milkfest, it would be a shame to us fans.

Okay renders, but the writing is terrible, it's really bad.
If the story was at least okay it could work but the story is basic, cliched, like 1000x other games. If the story and writing are mediocre on a visual novel everything else is irrelevant, and not worth the time. We should be paid to play this....

Crappy dialogue with subpar animations.
There’s not much going on and the story and writing is hilariously bad. Each chapter always ends awkwardly. The dev clearly doesn’t know how to write.

There’s undertones of corruption and incest but it’s just hamfisted and poorly written.

The renders look ok but this is just another huge, huge waste of time.

I am really enjoying playing Ms Denvers, it offers something better than just another female protag game that glorifies females as easy sex objects

Story and plot has so far been decent and keeps me invested, main mc is beautiful, she shy but also confident but also cares, she not a lady to be messed with, that is good story writing

I am glad that their is no blackmail or some path where a male is forcing her to get naked, Wanda is a type of lady that would whoop your ass if you tried anything funny with her

Bottom line is, I have a top 5 female protagonist games that I am proud to have found and honored to play, Ms Denvers is differently one of my top 5

Beautiful renders, Wanda is absolutely stunning and quickly becoming one of my favourite MILFs, but I have an issue with the writing, Wanda is trying to reconnect with Gene but the first thing she does is send him a text message that sounded like a threat, I’m sorry but that’s not how one should sound when trying to reconnect with someone, she could have sounded less threatening and less aggressive than that. That’s just an example of the writing, the boy that forgets that he can’t swim... trust me if you can’t swim you don’t just forget about it, even less jump in the water to retrieve a basketball … 4 stars for now but it could easily be a 5 star if the writing improves.

You'd think that a game this highly rated and with such great looking renders would be great experience right? Wrong!

All the great artwork is let down horribly by the atrocious writing. The grammar is bad, the spelling is bad and the narrator describes literally everything that the mc does. And then there are these odd chinese-supremacy references sprinkled in.

2/5 because if you only look at the renders and skip all the writing in this visual novel you'll maybe like this.

I'm hesitantly giving it 4 stars because frankly I like the subject matter. It's a slow-burn fap game, and it succeeds in that.

The writing is, well, bad. It has a lot of cringe elements (like, you roll your eyes and say "Christ, nobody talks like that") as well as some ESL-type mistakes. It's not the worst out there, but it's bad enough I spacebar through a lot.

However-- the renders are at worst decent and sometimes downright excellent (it varies a bit), and there is some very nice slow-burn lezcest going on there which is enough to get me on board the project. You also get a lot of control over routes, which is great since I don't have a lot of interest in any of the male characters.

So-- I'm giving it a lot of stars because frankly I enjoyed the game and I'm looking forward to the next release. A lezcest harem game is just what this world needs more of.

I really like this game, its main character Wanda is the most beautiful in AVN, her expressions are so vivid that people can't help but be fascinated. The suspense the developers created between her and her son was clever and very much anticipated
