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

You got your self a real pearl here of a game here.
I went from crying to laughing.
I love the MC how he takes care of all the one he loves.
I love the bikering and the funny lines hes havning with the girls.
I give you 5 star.
Kepp up the good work.

ok, I've played WAY too many hours on this game ever since I downloaded it recently. to be honest, I only downloaded it to check it out since I saw a brief clip of this game in another game that I'm currently playing. less then 10 minutes into the game, and I was hooked!!!

PROS
1. Lucy
2. wonderful storytelling, or it was once I "restored" the game to it's true settings and NOT the landlord and landlady and tenant crap that Patreon forces game developers to use instead of how the game is supposed to be.
3. Lucy
4. Fiona
5. Lucy
6. surprisingly, NOT having to grind!!!
7. oh yeah, before I forget, Lucy
8. Super Naked Ginger Snuggle Time
9. SUPER NAKED GINGER NYA TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cons
1. I honestly think that this is the ONLY game I've ever played that has a "harem" and/or "landlady/tenant (cough incest cough lol) where magic, science, and playing your cards just right played NO part in getting said harem. there are games like A Spell For All, Corrupted Kingdom, and Scarlet Law where magic plays a huge role in getting your harem. there's games like Lab Rats 2 (NOT counting version 39.1) The Company, and Superpowered (I count unlocking super powers via injection as science, wouldn't you?) where you use Science as a huge part of getting your harem. there are games like Mythic Manor and Harem Hotel where you work your @$$ off being a charismatic b@$t@rd where you EARN the love and EARN your harem.

then there's THIS game. all you have to do is choose to be a "good guy" and not to be a schmuck and EVERY SINGLE WOMAN in the game falls for you... well so far Sister Raven, Rosa, Billie, Celeste, Ida, and Juna haven't, but I've only played up to Chapter 12 . literally all I've had to do is choose the top option when presented an option and I've gotten every single girl except for the six I've mentioned, and I would be willing to bet that I'll get those six soon enough.

I like a game where it's chill and you get to have some fun with your girl or girls, but I also like the satisfaction of "earning" her love, whether it's the old fashioned way of being a charismatic guy, with my super powers, or with my magic. I want to feel like I did something or learned something that made me get my girl.

2. while the English is surprisingly good for a Hentai game, or any other game for that matter, there is one thing that absolutely drives me crazy when I see it. when the MC or Lucy (the two who do this the most, but I thing Sandra does it too) make a promise, YOU DO NOT SAY "PROMISED"! IT'S PROMISE!!! PRESENT TENSE!!! they're not saying something like "you promised me" but what they are saying is "I promise". see, it's PRESENT TENSE!!! at least the devs are constant in their English and grammar, even if they're constantly getting this particular instance WRONG.

3. while you can name the MC whatever you want, I wish that you could rename the other characters as well. not a biggie, but just a personal preference.

4. the Ginger Sisters are right, the MC looks stupid with his haircut. as of Chapter 12, he still has the same stupid haircut. Fiona (at least my Fiona did) finally updated his wardrobe, but she also needs to schedule an appointment with a barber or stylist. hopefully in future versions (version 0.19+, there will be a mechanic where the MC can "shop" for clothes and get whatever hairstyle he (or more realistically, whatever hairstyle his loves) wants

all in all, this is a wonderful game that has gotten me very emotionally involved and absolutely hooked!!! I can't wait to see more of how the story unfolds!!!

Found the game on a different site where I had to play in browser. Googled the name and found it here to download. Had to register and write a review right away.

At first glance I thought this would be your ordinary incest game but after a while I noticed that this game is different. The whole aspect of love and not corruption or anything else is what hooked me. Then of course the wholesome aspect in general took me by surprise - no creepy MC that lusts after his sisters or other females. Just a nice guy that is looking to make everyone he loves happy. You come for the faps and stay for the feels ( and gingers ).

5 out of 5 <3

Ultimately, this is a great game. Solid writing, enjoyable characters, and a diversity in plot progression and characterization absent in a lot of harem games. I greatly recommend it for interested players.

The only reason I cannot give it a five personally is over the issue of the girls in the harem having sex with each other. The presence of this appears to be unavoidable and game breaking (well fantasy/immersion breaking really) for someone like me. It would be immensely easy to fix by making an option for the player/character to say no, but it appears the creator will not consider this, despite several other players demonstrating similar concerns. Personally, it's a harem and I'd rather the harem fantasy include them not having sex with anyone not me/with others (which is why I appreciated the times we could skip threesomes where the girls engaged in sexual acts between them, not just focused on the mc). It seems most feel that way about other guys, but the absence of a dick seems to make it okay I guess. At the end of the day it is still the creator's game, and a good one which is why I highly recommend it for others, it's just immensely disappointing because of this one little, easily fixed, thing.

One of my favorite Visual Novels!

It's a fun, simple, no bullshit, family NSFW-friendly VN that plays mostly like a kinetic novel but with some important choices that determine who you want a relationship with.

Since this is a Harem game, I doubt anything but the full package is canon and you'll only have yourself to blame when people hate you (truthfully, I have no idea what the other paths or formulas occur if you decide not to romance someone, or you decide to romance only Sandra or something similar as I've only played the regular path where I love everybody -- and honestly it's great).

Pros
Lots of redheads!

Relationship with both the Mom and the Aunt

It's hard to pick the best girl, I love everyone (especially Becca and Mary), but Sandra and Lucy are my favorites.

Not a heavy focus on sex (or "OMG my mother's ass gave me a boner, I must bone her!" bullshit) there's an intelligence behind the writing where the whole plot of the game is finding happiness with your new family and having actual relationships with them as opposed to mindless sex.

No NTR! (Or any other male except past characters mentioned in dialogue like Becca and Mary's ex-husbands. Actually, the lack of background NPCs is a little disturbing. Killer7 actually poked fun at not rendering anybody when you go into the city in the actual game)

Neutral
The Sex scenes are pretty simple, but they're not terrible.

Lots (and Lots!) of Dialogue - The first Couple of Playthroughs were me using the Skip feature to get some dialogue that didn't drag me through the manual of some virtual dude's life. Subsequent playthroughs I haven't skipped through anything and I'm loving it!

Given the number of characters, it could be a few in-game days before you see more content for a specific character.

Cons
There are none?

Final Verdict: If you're not opposed to incest, or at least have an open mind about these kinds of things then give this game a try. It's really great and I have no doubt you will enjoy it on as many levels as I do!

As much as I like games with incest, harem and pregnant content this one just really doesn't do it for me and I can't for my life understand why this one has such a high rating. To be clear, I don't mind VN's or games with a lot of text. I actually prefer a well written story with sparse sex-scenes over those that have a mediocre story with tonnes of images. However this one is just horrible to be honest.

The dialogues between the MC and his family become stale rather quickly. Every day becomes the same thing at some point: You wake up with x-amount of sisters, take a shower with x-amounts of sisters, talk with one sister, have breakfast (always pancakes? seriously?), watch tv, have a date with a sister or a friend and then it just continues in the same vein.

Excepting the drama with Lucy and Alicia in the beginning, most of the rest of it doesn't make any sense at all, especially the so called horrible thing your Grandma made you do. She actually made you do a sensible thing but somehow it's horrible and it seems to split the family until of course it doesn't anymore and everybody's happy again.

The original setting of the game had a lot of potential but the dev really screwed it up with the repetitiveness of most days and the lack of a story that seems even remotely possible. I'm not asking for realism, this is fantasy of course, but it's just too much. Half of the script, if not more, could be left out and would make the game much more enjoyable. For these reasons I'm giving this one a 1, only because a 0 isn't possible.

For its artstyle the game gets a 4.5/5.
For the 4th Wall-Breaking 11/10.
Funny jokes 4.9/5
This game seems similar to the WVM from Braindrop when it comes to the open girlfriend that is the half-sister, but with a much slower built up when it comes to fucking. You need to build up the relationship before something happens.
Edit: Artstyle 3/5 the weebs look like shit the grandma looks younger than the sisters and the asians look weird ass fuck.
Edit2: The grandma plot is fcking cringe.
Edit3: the characters and especially the MC are somewhat retarded when it comes to the timing for a quickie. they fuck like once a week even so they want to and can do it daily, kinda weak men.
Edit4: You talk more about the deed than doing it in a ratio of 100:1 i feel like.
Edit5: Never forget the VOID.
Edit6: Super naked ginger cuddle time

AAAAAARRRGH, THIS IS SO UNREALISTIC! THESE CHARACTERS DO NOT ACT LIKE REAL PEOPLE AT ALL! *fapfapfap*

WHY DOES EVERY DAY GO THE EXACT SAME?! WHY DOES EVERY GIRL JUST THROW THEMSELVES AT THIS TOOL OF AN MC?! *fapfapfapfap*

WHY IS THIS WRITING SO FORMULAIC AND BAD?! *fapfapfap*

Damnit, I need a Sandra.

Based on the (as yet) unfinished v0.17 (although at time of writing I haven’t even completed chapter 4).

My usual disclaimers when writing reviews on here are that A. I am here for the "plot" not the plot and B. I generally dislike visual novels. So take both of those into consideration for my review when thinking about this game.

Pros

• Absolutely oodles of content – If you’re looking for a harem game where you can bang dozens of girls and then get the chance to fuck them all more than just once, then you’re in luck and this game has you covered.
• Tonnes of sex scenes – It takes a little while to warm up but by chapter two you will regularly be fucking lots of different girls in lots of different places. Plus the sex is all at least passably fappable. Killer7 is under absolutely no illusions that this game is all about the sex first and he wants you to just bang every single girl possible and for them to all willingly join your harem.

Mehs

• Character design – Killer7 has seemingly made a real effort to stretch Honey Select as far as possible and make his girls unique. Unfortunately, this hasn’t really worked too well. A good number of the girls look pretty generic (Sandra and Becca immediately jumps to mind as being super forgettable) and then some of them, where more work was put in, there’s something a little bit off about them. E.g. Maddie’s hair actually makes her look like she’s bald with blonde hair floating about an inch above her head. Very weird. Not exactly a negative though, because clearly some effort went into this.
• Neko sister – One of the BIGGEST focuses of the game (at least in the first few chapters) is your sister Lucy, a girl with cat ears/tail/eyes. I’m not massively into Nekos as a kink so this didn’t really do much for me, but it wasn’t exactly a bad thing. The reason I even mention it though is how weirdly out-of-place it is. For all intents and purposes, this is seemingly a totally normal town/world… Except you have a neko sister… Like… Really? Why? How? What…?! (It’s worth saying, this is absolutely nit-picking on my part and probably over-thinking a bloody porn game).

Cons

• Terrible choice system - Your choices are always limited to "do I want to choose the good option or do I want to be an absolute prick and not even get any of the sex scenes?"
• Characters are all the same – One of the most egregious examples of this I’ve ever seen in any porn game. EVERY single character behaves in just about the exact same way around you:

• Characters are stupidly one-dimensional and have zero motivations outside of the game – One of the absolute worst examples here is sister Lucy again. Her character trait is “she was bullied as a child for being a Neko”. So now her entire character is THAT one trait. She spends literally every single day by going to the beach and just sitting there. Like… Apparently she’s genuinely that fucking boring and has that little desire to do anything with her life. All the other characters are no better really. Sandra’s character is “she likes cooking and also falls in love with you at first sight.” Maddie’s character is “likes exercise”. Mary’s character is “is a slut, but only for a few chapters before she falls in love with you and you have to have dates with her like everyone else”. The main character does not escape this either and has literally nothing go on for him outside of wanting to be in love with everyone.
• Perfect humble protagonist – After playing WVM, I thought the erotic-game world had peaked in terms of a perfect protagonist with the perfect dick who everyone falls in love with at first sight, can do no wrong, and is the ultimate super nice-guy gentleman who will fix absolutely everything purely with his presence and magic jizz. APPARENTLY I was wrong because My New Family is exactly the same thing but many, many orders of magnitude worse.
• The dialogue, good lord the dialogue – Fucking hell… There’s so much of it. It just goes on. And on. And on. And on. And on. And it’s SO baaaad dude.

And this goes on. FOREVER...


I’ve said it before that I’m here for the porn, I make no excuses about that. I want my games to be porn first with a smattering of story on top. The more I play around on here I do become aware that the absolute best games are those which have more than a smattering of story and are well-written, but I still maintain that if I’m playing an erotic game, it should be porn first. And there are many examples which achieve this.

If the game doesn’t have the best writing, it can still be entertaining and at least a good fap with tonnes of sex, so in theory I ought to have enjoyed My New Family at least more than I have rated it. And I genuinely initially thought I was going to rate it in the 3-4 stars area (3.5 being the sort of standard for great harem sex with no plot).

Except as time went on the writing just grated more and more. Looking at the ratings for this game is genuinely stunning. The amount of people praising the writing and characters just blows my mind.

TRUST ME. They are wrong.

Every character is the same person, every character has one trait that is absolutely beaten to death and they all latch onto you in the same absolutely ludicrous saccharine way. Even as someone who enjoys it when my porn games are silly, it no longer felt unrealistic as much as it did simply stupid, and worse BORING. It might as well have been you fucking a dozen clones, because that’s the level of difference between the characters.

Only ONE female was remotely interesting (Fiona) but she’s a side-character who rarely popped up. Equally the second most interesting was also a side character and she was literally a bad guy for the first 2 chapters and then becomes much less interesting.

The dialogue and flow of the game is so absolutely tedious. Even if the relationships weren’t so overly sugary sweet and dripping with perfect romance for each other, it would just be absolutely exhausting to play because of how much text filler there is and how little actually happens. A whole scene might be going to the cinema with two girls and talking about absolutely nothing for 20 minutes.

As time went on I started skipping more and more of the text just to get to the good stuff and suddenly I realised that even the sex wasn’t that good any more. Without any build up or context even the fucking gradually became uninteresting. And then I also realised that actually, even without the normal story there generally wasn’t build up to the sex. It just went from “let’s watch TV together and make shitty jokes” to “okay now we’ll have sex”.

The more I think about it, the more I actually realise that I can’t justify giving this even two stars. I was going to do so purely because of the amount of content and how much sex there was. But if the sex is bad as well, then there’s literally no reason to enjoy it.

Maybe. MAYBE it will get better in later episodes, but I seriously doubt it.

Game version: [v0.17]

Boring, repetitive tripe that somehow manages to turn a taboo fetish like incest into a dull Disney movie that will never fucking end until you want to kill yourself to escape the soul-crushingly saccharine wholesomeness of it all.

The story has no stakes or conflicts, every woman wants the MC's dick and falls madly in love as soon as she lays eyes on him. Every girl is immediately okay with sharing the protagonist and never experiences even a hint of jealousy, no matter how many family members, friends, or random passersby the MC sticks his dick in.

To drive the point home further that we have firmly left any semblance of realism behind us, they all make sure to embarrassingly declare that, of course, they would only ever fuck him, because he is just so perfect that even a minute of his time and a good dicking here and there means he's the only man they'll ever need. Also, why not have kids with the creep you've known for a couple of days who's fucking half the town?

But that at least means there's plenty of girls and sex, that's good, right? No, even that is mostly boring, there is no real sense of progression or chase and 95% of the sex scenes are as vanilla as the lame plot.

The MC is Simp Jesus and you will spend half the game listening to him apologizing, talking about his feelings, and telling every woman in the game how much he loves and respects her. Wow, that's so hot and kinky. If he's not busy prostrating himself before his current "girlfriend" of the hour, he is hard at work solving everybody's problems by being just so fucking great and attentive and having a magic dick that can cure cancer and solve all of society's ills.

Round it all out with some of the worst illusion of choice I've ever seen and characters that immediately discard most traces of their personality once you've managed to get your dick in their hole and all you have left is an incredibly long procession of mind-numbingly boring "good guy" and "loving girlfriend" dialogue and repetitive softcore pornography.

One of the most wholesome yet somehow equally debaucherous (given the incest if you consider it as such) games out there. All the girls are somewhat unique, particularly in physicality but also in writing. They change and evolve and the MC is both a decent person(Which for some is a big requirement) and not a complete doormat. Refreshing to actually want to reread/play a game itself and not just a playlist of the good animations.

Added this after seeing some other reviews(how do ya'll give an all-time top 10 like this 4 stars?):
Yes it can be seen as repetitive, "vanilla"(As some reviews have said. Idk how you can be vanilla while balls deep in your sister while going down on your cousin but hey) and there aren't other guys, so if you need big action and constantly beating your chest so the other monkeys don't grab your bananas then it's not for you but if you want a decently genuine sense of warmth and an MC who actually cares and thinks about his girls as much as he fucks them(In other words if being a good person is attractive to you) then play on

This is a great game with solid story writing. If I have to name one complaint, it would be the girls similar stories interacting with the MC. But hey, a good effort is a good effort, and it is very clear that the writer put efforts into their work. Awesome gem all around with a lot of content!

I love this game.
It's pure comfort food and let me say:

Finally some good fucking food.

For me this is the best VN I've played so far.

I love the humor and the pop culture references.

If you, like me love a good story and super naked ginger cuddle time topped with pancakes accompanied by relaxing music then this for you.


Dear Killer7, you are a gentleman and a scholar. I salute you.

Thank you very much, you made me really happy with this game.

Mixed feelings on this review, my current overall feeling is: this game is only okay because it has an insane amount of average content. 3.5 stars.

When I first started playing this game I was BLOWN AWAY. I was like FINALLY. THIS is what I have been looking for! And for the first 2 chapters that was pretty much maintained (chapters are SUPER long by the way, geez). I was interested in the characters. I was enjoying the models and dialog. However things started to get repetitive, and for the remainder of what I have played, they stay repetitive.

And what I mean is that, while girls have different personalities, every relationship is the same. "Omg my life was so miserable and then you came into my life and you made it so much better and now I have mixed feelings about you oh no wait I am definitely romantically interested in you oh no wait I want to bear your children oh no wait I want you to impregnate all my friends and family". And you might say "well yeah that's how all these games end up": Yes but in this game, the path for each girl identical, it's just that certain steps in that path are shorter/longer for certain girls.

Fiona, a character I did not care about at first, has ended up as my favorite character as she is the only one so far that does not follow that same path. In a game filled with apples and apples and apples and apples, she is an orange, and she is interesting (really only because she is not an apple).

Anyways, as far as the game, it's not a game, it's a novel. You have a few choices that will have obvious impacts on events. There are animated scenes and they are good and have good dialog, and there is a gallery to replay them. There is an insane amount of dialog, to a fault in my opinion. I don't think anyone will hate this game so I recommend trying it. Some will probably love it, others will probably feel like me and shrug it off.

Just finished my first playthrough of this game and i love it so far.

The main thing that make this a great game for me is that you get the choice of who you want to have in your harem (except Sandra which i dont mind).
Second thing that makes this game great for me is no other males to compete with, so who ever you want can be yours.

There is only a few things that does this game is not getting 5 stars from me.
First reason: Is that is the non optional threesomes (i'm not a fan of forced content).
The second reason: Is the fact that Sandra, Alice (sometimes Becca) seems to become a bit to touchy at bedtime for my taste (i know its not sex), but for me it would have been better )in my opinion) if you (as MC) would be given a chance to stop them from doing that or atleast be involved, because it gives me a feeling of being left out as MC

It might not exactly be fair to rate the game after playing for a total of 10 minutes, but those were terrible 10 minutes. The game already starts by breaking every rule in the "show don't tell" rulebook, and the first character interactions are awful.

Sister number one develops a crush on you immediately for absolutely no reason, then sister number two is annoyed at you, for I suppose a good reason (which is yet again told to you instead of shown), and then when we meet the mother, she dumps exposition at us. Up to this point, ok, dialogues have been terrible, but starting stories is hard. Maybe now everyones emotions will die down a little and we will have a nice, gradual development towar- No, nevermind, sister one kissed the mc.

I'm giving a two for the art and the possibility that it improves eventually, but I doubt it.

Has all the key ingredients to be a 5 star.

- Every Fetish
- No sandbox
- No grind
- Good engine
- Different body types on models
- Loads and Loads of sex scenes
- Frequent Updates
- Very Long game with very little filler

Why No 5 Star!?
- I love Honey Select and KK engine games. But the models here are absolutely generic looking.
- Dev attempts make for the lack of graphical appeal with quantity over quality but the sex scenes are mediocre at best. No hard banging or tits flapping. No change in the facial expressions as the scenes progress. Its really like softcore porn at times.
- CTRL Skip most of it. Boring. With all the different sex scenes this should not be the case yet somehow here we are.
- Animations look like a porn game from 2016 and even then it seems like it would have been more interesting.
- I dont play these games for the plot, I even care more about the dialogue over the plot. Dialogue in this game is rather lackluster.

Even with that many flaws its still a decent game with decent fappable moments. Some almost memorable with certain characters but they get the job done. As it stands, its meh.

I love this game. Overall it has a happy, upbeat storyline. It's nice to experience a VN that's more positive. I love the harem aspect with no NTR. If you don't like harem you can pick and choose who you want to pursue to a degree. Pregnancy is avoidable if you aren't into it. If you do like pregnancy there are no visuals yet. Plenty of animated scenes with many body types. Always waiting for the next update which come out regularly.

I had luck when I picked this game as one of my first 3D VN. Start was little dark with MC past, but soon it changed too much nicer story. First meeting with Sandra was nice and Lucy was so adorable I wanted to hug her and soothe her painful mind.
I am really enjoying this game. Sad, happy and funny moments are in good balance. When I am reading it I can feel warm feeling in my soul. It is game exactly for me so thank you very much, Killer7, for your game.

Redheads. That is all.
All seriousness, this game is solid. Nothing new or spectacular just fun. On and neko. Good shit. Good selection of characters, many of which are optional, and it makes it clear as to what your decision means in that regard.
