VN - Ren'Py - Completed - My New Family [Christmas Special] [Killer7]

Excellent storytelling, excellent renders. An absolute must-try-game! A perfect line between desire and disaster, love and lewdness. No way to present a story of a young man better than this! The whole bunch of characters, all lovely in theyr own way, have been perfectly scriptet to theyr own roles, so everyone will find his perfect match or even... like i do... all of them

Try it, play it, love it! I´m sure you will

Clearly I'm in the minority given all the positive comments, but I just don't see anything special about this game. Let me break down why:

-All the women in this game either love the mc, or feel guilty for wronging him. There's no conflict, no tension. Of course, they want the mc to finish inside them every time. Who cares about getting pregnant right?
-There is NO STORY. When the mc is not fucking his family or someone else, he'll sit in the living room watching the same cartoons over and over. He has no life and zero ambition outside of the women he sleeps with.
-Lazy writing. Time and time again, characters will go to a place and not do anything. For example, on the date with Yvonne, they literally go to a diner, NOT have food, and then go back to her place for a blowjob because why not. If this was a harem game that owned the fact that it's nothing more, that would be something. But it operates under the pretence that the mc is this saviour for all these women. Point blank when Fiona asks the mc about his intentions with Dianna, he rejects the fact that sleeping with her would definitely count as cheating, and that he just wants "help" her like he did all the other women.
-Repetition. This comes up in many ways. For example, you can see Lucy's face plastered on atleast 2 other girls in the story, and the same goes for other women. Kissing scenes are also reused to a fault. You would think that characters who have been dating for a while now wouldn't kiss each other the SAME WAY every time, but they do.
-Outside of incest, which is a taboo and popular fetish (mine included), there is nothing unique that this game offers. Nothing stands out as "bad" per se, but I can't point to a single thing that this game does better compared to other harem games.

Imo, the dev's greatest strength is the ability to deliver consistent, timely updates. They all give you instant gratification, which is what most people playing this game are looking for anyway. If you're seeking anything else, you'll be disappointed. It's a fantasy world for emasculated men, and isn't grounded in any form of reality.

This is one of the best VN's I've ever played. The character development between the MC and all the "family" members is great. I know that not everyone uses the "incest" patch, but to each his own. I personally think it makes the game more heartfelt overall. The storyline and dialogue are great especially between the MC and Lucy. Some of it makes me laugh pretty hard. If you haven't played the game do it. With the current version there is quite a few hours of gameplay and well worth it. It's refreshing you don't get into the h-scenes and lewd ones right away. The build up is perfect and there isn't any major grinding like a lot of the games on here.

EDIT: Some people on here may not like this but I don't agree with the 3 star and below reviews at all. Everybody is entitled to their own opinion, but I guess the ones with the low ratings are just looking for a straight up porn game with no emotions for the different characters. Sure it would be nice to see a little bit of variety with the choices, but if you are looking for a quick "fu**" with the characters just go watch regular porn. The graphics, characters and backgrounds are a lot better than 80% of other games using HS. I've played a lot of adult games over the last 18 months. The lighting is usually terrible, the characters are just plain ugly and the animations in a lot of them are just atrocious. I would support @Killer7 financially with patreon than 90% of the games on F95.

Story: Its good and wholesome. It doesn't want to change the world or being a God-tier, but its good enough to give you emotions and keep you entertained. Its one of the few games, where I never skip.

Graphic: Pretty good actually. The characters are pretty nice, but the backgrounds are just decent, but this the engine's fault.

Characters: I pretty much love everyone, but I have my ranking among them (only LIs)

Lucy, Sandra, Alice: The best of the best. My cute little redheads. They so cute some times, that they will melt your heart.

Moon, Yvonne, Maddie: I really like Moon and Yvonne, but Maddie is dancing on the border of "not my type"-"I love her"

Becca, Mary, Fiona: I'm not into milfs and big boobs, so I ignore them. As characters, they have a good personality, but not my type.

Tanja: Just nope. What she did to our dear little Lucy, there's no redemption.

TL;DR: The game is good. You should give it a chance. Updates are regular, and pretty good.

This is an amazing feel good style of VN. This thing could go on forever and it would be fun to enjoy like an erotic soap opera.

Its a rare gem of simplicity with enough story to keep things engaging while keeping the erotic scenes plentiful.

Good Work Killer7

[Rev @ v0.10]

WIth the latest update the feels are in danger of distracting from the porn, but I'm strangely okay with this.

Art's fine if simplistic with my only real gripe being some of the faces. I really enjoy the varied selection of boobage on offer.

I like the writing. The plot starts out trite but veers sharply into useful territory and stays there. I'm personally don't enjoy the bully arc playing out in the particular way it does, but everything else is gold. Fluency, voice, and dialog are all great. Characterization is very enjoyable.

Nothing in the porn squicked me; it's all pretty vanilla but not in a boring way. This game serves as an enjoyable palate cleanser after my usual day of depraved garbage.

Bonus points for the dev being a member here.

TLDR: I mean 5 stars: yeah it's got some imperfections but the plusses more than make up for it.

Man, i really love this game, is one of the few that i don't expect the compressed version come out and always download at sight, i always have a lot of fun playing it so far and always comes out with a smile on my face.

But, this recently update was very strange for me, oh, is nothing wrong with the game itself, but it was a total opposite with my worldview...In my view Becca is just a cowardly rich mother who completely gave up on her son (I hate her character), she forgot him in such a way that she didn't even comment with her daughters for years, so, yeah, Elaine was right for me and i identified a lot with her and completely understand her actions, because while Becca ran away like a truly coward it was Elaine who looked after the the MC and it's only because of her that he came to the house, because if MC health depended on Becca he was probably living on the streets whit the rats.

I was extremely uncomfortable playing this update why i was obliged (Because at least for now the game does not give you the option to choose which side you will be on) to be sided to the side that I would NEVER choose, i would never choose this route to defend Becca, NEVER, and there was the MC defending her from everything and driving me crazy...

So ... I'll wait.

The author said that this is the "love route" and the others are yet to come, so i'll wait, i love this game, but it’s not comfortable for me to keep playing something that I’m not having the freedom to choose who i really trust or not, my choices (At least for now) have no meaning at all in the greats confrontations in the game, It's all very linear, and a linearity that I don't like at all

But I'll give 4/5, the game is great the renders are great, the history are great, but as long as I don’t have the freedom to make my own choices that truly affect the game (And not just having sex or not with girls)...I get extremely uncomfortable and i believe there are others with a thought similar to mine.

Love this game. The Story is interesting even though I have to admit it was a tiny bit cringe moment with Alice. I am a Patreon supporter and look forward to further updates. Thank you Killer7 for making this game and for the consistent updates on Patreon.

(Review as of v0.10)

Simply put, this is a must-play for anyone that enjoys VN about positive, loving relationships. I was a little skeptical when this VN was initially released, but Killer7 has shown himself to be very good at creating distinct personalities for all of the characters in this VN and the emotional dialog is simply excellent.

And I have to mention that Killer7 is one of the most engaged devs I've ever seen and has an insane work ethic.

I strongly recommend trying this, even if you don't usually like this kind of VN - it's that good.

First of all good game well played to the developer .

~>The game itself has bold and solid story telling.

~>The story has deep impact of relationship, each person has a unique personality and problem.

~>The music is unsatisfying when it comes to sex scene TBT I can't "FEEL THE HORNY OR LUST OF EACH FEMALE."

~>The sex scene dialogue need to be improved or refurnish .

~>There is no synchronize on music on each scene

~>lack of variety of sex option.It also redundant no unique.

~>The game play and sex scene has a lot of potential this maybe the reason the game itself lack of attention.

~>The story is interesting and eye candy of attention.

my original rating would be 3/5 but because of ur solid build on story.

It has been quite a while since I found an incest game with a very good romance plot that actually develops. So far this game has become one of my all time favorite game!
10/10 would recommend the cat puns.

A game that's definitely improved over time. The early scenes have some slightly stilted dialogue and minor issues like that, but the quality gets substantially better as the game progresses. Same with animation and model quality.

The overall story is a pretty simplistic and has a bit of "porn plot" syndrome in terms of how fast things develop, but again, that's something that also improves as you meet newer characters and on the plus side, it allows a lot of ero content throughout a play through. The characters are adorable, most of the plotlines are feel-good and I haven't encountered any bugs or issues like that.

To sum up: Simple, sweet and sexy.

Definitely looking forward to more!

Hard to stop once you start. Compelling characters. Predictable story for the most part but still hard to put aside because you root for the characters. Leaves you wondering how each crisis is going to get resolved. Animation is smooth but not usually a fan of this style of renders, but it works for this game. Try it.

This game has a linear storyline and your decision just make you see more or less content. The best route you can choose is to be nice to everyone and that way you can see the whole world around!
I fell in love for Lucy and Fiona and really like to watch how their characters improve throughout story. They are not just some brainless dolls created for some fetish stuff, but really loveable girls with story and relationships. Dev does great job on opening and developing characters here!
I really love background music it doesn't irritate even when playing 12 hours in a row. Lots of great pop culture references, yay!
Graphics and animations at first are okay, but later in game they become better and better. Good job, overall, 5/5, can't wait for the next chapter!

A great game with well-written story and characters. Characters are able to convey the emotion that they feel to the player, which is rare. Each character also has their own personality, so being with each of them gives us different feelings and you don't get bored talking to them too quickly. Especially that the meetings with the characters are very well laid out. In other words, it is a game of love that many will love

Hmmmm, having spent many hours playing this Game/VN, I have to admit that it has many, if not all, of the elements I enjoy in this type of game.

First, I will start out by saying that I was worried because of both the slow start, and the near immediate interaction between the MC and the older sister. at first, I was worried it would be a grind fest, then near the beginning, (and while i do enjoy these) I was afraid it would be a simple fap fest.

Instead, I discovered a game truly worth playing. The "grind" was crucial to the game, and teh "fap fest" was not nearly as intensive as I thoght. Instead I discovered a well written story, with damn good storylines and tangents that fit so well within the game. I fell in love with both Lucy and Alice. their story lines were perfectly integrated and really explained their particular concerns, making me want to protect and shelter them.

Lucy, with her experiences with school bullying, really brought out the "big Brother" in me and made me wanting to do more to protect her. Alice, with her experience with her father reminded me of RL experiences with my family, and made me glad the MC was so careful with her.

Every detail is revealed at just the right time, every difficulty, foible, or trauma, shown at exactly the right time in order to give the MC just enough information so he responds appropriately. Even the "dragged out" events with Alice, Lucy, and the others is justified and appropriate.

There really are few games I am willing to support with money or time (or even assistance in other respects) but this game has now hit the very top of me list. I have been considering what game to give a one time donation to, and this game. along with 4 others, is hitting the top of me list.

If the developer continues in the manner he started, I could easily consider him/her a developer of exceptional caliper, and would fully support him/her as well as promoting others to do so.

From me, HIGHEST praises to Killer7, a truly exceptional game

def #1 on my f95 game list, good animation & pacing. also, characters also feel like they matter (although the protag seems a bit forgetful at times) To top it off the 4th wall jokes actually made me giggle .

After playing through the game for more than 4 hours this is my opinion:

1- the characters a likable and nearly everyone has an interesting personality which doesn't make it boring.
2-the story started somewhat heavy but turned out to be good.
3-the soundtracks are very good and suit the scenes.
4-i had a problem with the scenes and arts at the beginning but I think it's getting better with time.
well, I'm not good at writing so, in a nutshell, I like this game.

huh? Wait what ?? uh, oh, what, hm ?. Not going to go back and literally search the exact phrases the MC uses. These phrases that started off this review off the top of my head feel close enough to what the MC constantly says on loop through out the game, almost as if the developer read my mind questioning at the constant below tier story arc being shoveled out and he is expressing that through the MC.

It genuinely feels like even if the MC turned into a pyromaniac and lit the house on fire they lived in and everyone barely made it out with their lives, it feels they would watch the house burn and gather round the MC to tell him how amazing he is for lighting the fire and now they won't have to maintain the house or clean it and they can all start afresh. That is how stupid the logic is in this game. The MC could just stand there doing nothing and everyone keeps reminding him how amazing he is and life is now only truly being lived because of him.

The story is a black hole of logic, the renders are not great, the sex scenes are not the best. I have complemented music in games before when used in conjunction with a good story to create emotions. Music is used in this game to try to distract you during important moments in hope you don't read too heavily into what is being passed off as story telling.

This is a visual novel, there is only one way to play, even though especially early game you are supposedly given options to choose what to do. They do nothing, in reality, you must choose one of those options as the other one is always a brick wall or a warning saying not to do this. So remove the other options and be a visual novel and stop pretending there are choices, so many games are doing this now. This always scores a negative point with me. Be what you are, a story, stop pretending to be something you are not with branching paths.

What will follow is spoilers in game and will be tagged as such to highlight some things I want to address. If you want to view more into why I feel the way I feel in this review, the spoiler will give more insight.
Anyway, in general, this is a game if you play just don't overthink the plot, it is a bare bones harem game, women pop up. instantly want you for whatever reasons and then want you to have sex with other women. So it devolves into a game without a plot, just a lot of characters you have sex with and the quality of sex scenes is debatable. This review was based on v0.9 Everyone thinks differently, that is my honest opinion and if you play and like it and feel differently. Best of luck to you and glad you enjoyed it.

This is one of the best games I have ever played. The storyline and writing are really great. Nothing against other devs that aren't native English speakers and use software to translate. It is nice to read text that is easy to read with proper grammar. The progression for each member of the MC's "family" is you use a patch is great.

The writing is really great and very funny in some parts. The best writing I think is between the MC and Lucy. This is one of the top 3 games that I've played. And I have played quite a few adult games over the last year.
