VN - Ren'Py - My New Memories [v0.4.5] [Killer7]

Review for v0.3

To be completely honest, I dropped this pretty fast. I feel more justified in doing that after reading some of the plot spoilers as well. I just don't think this as a VN for me at the end of the day.

I feel like I've seen the amnesia trope 30 times over by now, and I was never that into it in the first place. I also don't like when AVNs try to be super emotional right out of the gate. I know none of these characters. It means nothing to me that the wife we haven't even seen yet is in a coma. I don't feel any of the emotions because I haven't learned about any of these characters in the first place.

From the bit I played, I also didn't connect with the MC at all. The fuck you mean you don't want to see your family or literal daughters? You want to start over and forget your entire family? I get it he has amnesia and doesn't feel any particular connection with them because of that, but I find it super unrelatable I suppose. Obviously he changes his opinion on it, but idk it just made me think of him as a shithead. Besides that, it seems like he simply turns into Mr. perfect as the story goes on. Also this is more a me thing, but I don't care to play as a middle aged man either.


The renders and models are fine, but they aren't amazing. It's a thing I can always look past if the rest of the game is great, but I'm just not feeling it.

I will give some points for trying to tell an actual story and create a good slower burn, but this seems like it will simply turn into a cushiony incest harem game and nothing more. That's fine if you're into it, but I really think the whole amnesia plot kills this for me more than anything else.

Played till the end of day 11, or all of 0.2 as far as I can tell. From the get go this game kept me interested, there were a plethora of characters to be introduced to and the story was interesting enough. It's dipped in that regard very slightly, one criticism I have is that the days are packed with so many scenes that I can't remember many of them and get the sense the day is ending only to realize it's only halfway done. Bearing in mind this wouldn't necessarily be a bad thing, if the player gets the sense that something juicy or inviting is still coming. Unfortunately, sometimes, it doesn't.

I personally don't mind slow-burn games at all, especially when done with great characterization and writing, they can be really enjoyable, and most crucially when the H scenes are executed really well the pay off always feels satisfying. With My New Memories, most of the slow burn endless conversation and dialogue isn't actually that bad, but there are certain points where it just loses your interest. The other issue is that the pay off isn't as exciting and satisfying, maybe because of the animation style of this art style - even so, it's clear effort has been made to make them look more realistic and less repetitive. But unfortunately, I can't think of any sex scenes that really felt amazing. The game also lacks much development in the way of skinship or getting physically closer to the characters progressively. Having said that, it's only a minor point, as if you're someone who can't do slow burns you won't like this game anyway.

The only real issue I have with this game is how ugly 2 of the characters are. Bethany and Jessica's faces seem very weird, and I was shocked to see how much better a younger Bethany looked. These 2 are almost uncomfortable to look at, which is a shame because Bethany actually has quite a stunning side profile and Jessica looks completely different and much more attractive from the back, it's just their faces. Perhaps something similar to Maddie's hairstyle change could be done?

Now onto the positivies. First, the music is excellent. The visuals and colours are great. There are a variety of character expressions so scenes doesn't look flat. The relationships and unravelling of the interpersonal dynamics are great. The girls are great. The story is still intriguing, though by far the main motivating factor for playing is the hope of developing the relationships further with the girls. Speaking of which, time to rank them.

1. Sabrina. She's almost perfect. Looks great, has a distinct personality, and her role in the story was interesting, especially during the hotel section.
2. Yukiko. Second most attractive, more so than even Lena, I can't wait to see where the relationship goes.
3. Pebbles. Aka Lina. Redhead, heart of gold, likes hugs and looks attractive. She ticks all the boxes and only loses out to the first 2 due to her late introduction and lack of development thus far.
4. Samantha/Olivia/Lisa/Sabine
5. Lena/Anna
6. Morgan/Sophie (Sophie would be much higher up if not for something off about her face)
7. Others

As far as the game stands at the moment, in every aspect I can think of (girls, scenes, story), it unfortunately doesn't match up to My New Family, which is a stellar game in the very top tiers of Visual Novels in my opinion. If something could be done about some characters' faces, and more saucy moments were interspersed throughout the slow burn to keep people interested, this could be a really top tier game.

[v0.2]
TL;DR really really excellent work. It's great to watch the author grow as a story-teller. This game is an improvement on the author's first work in every conceivable dimension, while maintaining the warm, friendly and gentle atmosphere that drew me into MNF in the first place.

The character models, renders, and animations are gorgeous, and I especially love that the player character is also beautiful to look at this time, even if we still don't see his face. The sex scenes are given room to breathe , and feel more erotic and embodied than the scenes in MNF. I hope the author continues to experiment and evolve in this dimension, but I love what we've seen so far

every character feels lively and individual, and I love the love that the MC has for every member of his family, and especially for Anna. I also personally appreciate the queer representation in this game, including the gay couple who are MC's best friends (I forgot their names unfortunately, but they remind me of a couple I know), and Morgan the transgender girl. I love that these characters are present and important to the gameplay, but not controversial in-universe. Whenever some other authors tackle these issues in their games I cringe a little, but Killer always keeps everything warm and full of love.

I also appreciate the increased ambition vis-a-vis storytelling here. while MNF sometimes felt like simple wish-fulfillment, this game has something to say on the matters of family, mourning and grief, along with a mystery that unfurls over the course of the game. I do wonder what will happen in the story once the mystery has been solved, but I'm along for the ride.

I'm very pleased with this game, and I eagerly look forward to seeing what comes next

I always advocate good writing and a good story in porn and porn games, and this game basically did that, i love the build up of characters so when they do the deep it feels worth it, this is the one of the games i didnt skip dialouge, yes the MC is pretty generic its the "every one just loves me" MC trope but the writing help its to not be awful, and i have to praise Killer7 for this


I dont really have a way to financially support good creators i hope this review might help a little bit, god speed dev hope you finish all your games

I genuinely didn't know what to think at first, I didn't really think it'd be as good as I expected, considering you know, it's still an adult game etc.

Yet it blew my mind away, I still have some small complaints obviously but they're seriously miniscule.

I can't wait for the updates, yet another game I wish I could fast forward time to see the full version of. Damn it, this is why I hate playing incomplete games, cause when they get me hooked I have to wait..

Alright, so my only complaints, I saw another review I think who said some points in the characters dialogue can get very repetitive, I agree. The MC seems to say some things constantly, repeating them in different scenes in slightly different words. It got a tiny bit annoying because as I said, it was really repetitive.


It's been some pretty blatant fore-shadowing that she's going through some changes etc. I'm hoping the daughters are up for grabs too, although with the current update, it doesn't seem any of them feel that way. Yet I don't think they're out of the options considering the incest tag. I'm genuinely wondering how that's gonna go.

All and all, it was a blast and you have me craving for more. Thanks for the absolute entertainment.

This is my updated review of this VN. December 15 2023

First and foremost this is an outstanding VN. The story is captivating, the characters are well developed, and will continue to develop with the story.

Killer7 evolved into an exceptional story teller. Weaving emotions into the story, and taking you on the rollercoaster ride with them. Sprinkled with humor and drama really drives the flow of progression with the story.
Over the year and a half since my first review I have gone through this VN several times. Even knowing what happens, I'm struck with emotions at every turn.

I recommend this VN 100%. Killer7 is doing excellent work with this VN.

Really liking this game. Got it from itch.io and thanks to comments there I found f95zone and just had to give it 5 stars as well here.

Best part of the game so far is Anna. She is the perfect wife in my opinion. Sure, it's just a game and you can't expect anything like that in real life. But fuck me, give me an Anna IRL.

Played v0.2. Amazing. Story is very catching and emotional. No focus on Lewd content and the lewd content that is there lands. I enjoyed every second of it and especially Anna left a lasting impact. Concept, setting, and character relationships were amazing to me and made everything easy to enjoy. 5/5!

Played v0.2. Bland. Story is not interesting and drags on. Not enough lewd content and what there is did not land. Just had no enjoyment playing it and left no lasting impact. Concept, setting, and character relationships were awkward to me and made everything hard to enjoy.

As with the game My New Family this is also one of my favorite games and when I knew that it was from the same actor as the game already named, I knew it would be good and so far I have not been disappointed and I am looking forward to the next update and I hope it continues with more both in this and in the previous one and if it takes another one, it will also give you the opportunity, without further greetings and move on.

I've only just gotten home after the hospital and hotel, so that is my frame of reference for this rating. I can't speak to what comes after yet, but "might" update this if needed.

I want to give this 5 stars, but there is so much wasted time and dialogues that either aren't needed, are redundantly repetitive, or make no sense within the story.

I would have INSISTED upon speaking to my family members after awakening. I would have threatened my doctor with legal action and lawsuits if I was imprisoned against my will and held incommunicado.

I also had feelings about my twin sister early on. I wanted to kiss her and ask her questions that the Dev doesn't allow. It wouldn't have given away the story too soon, just confirmed my theories 2 days sooner and could have avoided a LOT of the grinding through dialogue and scenes that make no sense.

Also, during my 1st night at the hotel, I'd have asked my sister to stay with me. Who wants to be alone and isolated when they have amnesia?!?!?! I need info and human contact. Only being around people will stimulate my memories. (Just as we eventually see about 4 days into the gameplay.)

I'd also like the option to see my daughters while I'm in the hospital. I can still spend 2 days in the hotel to transition from the hospital. But refusing to see them makes ZERO sense to me. I'd NEVER choose isolation over contact and discussion.

I'd also like to get to the root of my problems with the blond sister. I think that MC chose to leave her behind when he married. But that choice also makes little sense. As she could have come with me, just as twin sis did.

Also, I have questions about why my twin has her own apartment. I'd have wanted for her to live with my wife and I. Both for family, friendship, and to help with our daughters. I'm a builder, so building an extra wing on the house would have been simple, just as I added extra wings for the daughters.

I also was surprised that my wife had all 3 of my daughters. The blond looks like a mini copy of her aunt. The redhead looks like a small version of her grandma, and since grandma is young enough and never remarried, she could have easily asked me to give her another baby after she began caring for my 1st daughter. I'd rather give each woman a baby, than concentrate solely on my wife having children.

As a side note: I'd also like the ability to list the ages of the girls for myself. The youngest does NOT look 18!!! Maybe 13-14. So I just rewrote that part in my own head.

I hope that by the end of the story, I can give each of my daughters a baby of their own. Making myself the trunk of our family tree.

Otherwise, everything with the game other than minor plot issues at the beginning, would result in a perfect 100% score. Perfect models, renders, choices of decorations and animations, etc.

Clean up the intro to streamline it, and this would be 1 of my Top 5 games.

Killer7 is the absolute best when it comes to wholesome stories, it is really heart-warming. The writing is also decent. The characters are extremely lovable. And given it's his first daz3 game, the renders are very good.

Keep up the good work.

My New Memories [v0.2] [Killer7] is a gem I absolutely love (Story first, teasing second, porn after). The game has a unique story, or at least different from what I have seen from other VNs. The characters are a bit different from each other and have a lot of variety, a lot of stories I can't wait to see told with all of them. The renders are great with animations that probably need a lot more work, at times look a bit too robotic. The only thing I can dislike at the moment is the writing and pacing at times in the story. Sometimes with the writing, it just feels repetitive with a lot of saying the same thing over and over again just differently. The pacing I feel can sometimes feel a bit too slow and slightly dragged on. But either way as of right now, this is one of those games you should wholeheartedly support. I can see the passion, I can tell someone really wanted to make an incredible story that they loved. There's a lot of promise, I can't wait to see what's next.

Retrieving Memories and Making new ones.
My New Memories is high density in dialogue with no shortage in lewd moments, A nice blend of story and sexy.

High quality fun that will last for hours of playtime.
A nice variety in models and locations.

5/5

Very good game. I always prefer a game with a good story line. If I just want to watch porn there are plenty of other sites for that. So thanks for making the effort to tell an actual story.

This has become one of my favorites. I will definitely be watching for more.

3.5 out of 5 stars, and it could easily rise past that.

Killer7 started off really, REALLY rocky with his first game, but Memories really shows how much he's grown as a writer and developer. Renders are clean and crisp, environments are pretty, characters are distinct, an actual fucking plot... In almost every way, this game should be at least 4.5 stars.

The two problems he doesn't seem to be able to shake are dead expressions and parts of the writing. Laughing faces are all the fucking same still; characters look like cadavers with closed eyes and the corners of their mouths tilted upwards, leaning their heads slightly to the side and usually covering their mouths with a hand. All the characters look like that when they laugh, and it's especially unnerving when multiple characters do it in the same shot. It's just awful.

The writing is passable this time, but there are still very odd turns of phrase used every now and then that, combined with a continued refusal to use believable contractions in spoken dialogue, feel like massive speedbumps in the story. Reviewing the writing and smoothing it out would be a massive bonus; this time around, I don't think he'd need someone else to check it. He just needs to speak the lines out loud and ask himself if a character would, in that situation, really say "he is" instead of "he's".

I'm definitely looking forward to more; I just hope that the author can address these issues in future updates.

Right off the bat I'm gonna tell you right now if you plan on just whipping your cock out and flogging that dolphin because you are a coomer you can't help it and just need to crank out your knuckle children real quick. It will probably be better to pass this one up while you are in that state of mind. The snail pacing of this game is not right for that mindset. Put your pants back on, and go wash your hands!

However, if you are looking for a "Feels Story", and some world building, and character development, and story, and getting to know the characters, and slow burning build up.. Something where you start to get invested in the characters that the author has clearly invested a lot of time and energy into creating... This is more for you.

All the characters are different, and feel like different people. There are a only little bit of sex scenes right now, but they are few and far between. A nice big incest harem is promised at some point.

The best way I could describe what it feels like playing this game is if you took the developers of "A Wife and Mother", and told them "Stop working on that, you gotta work on a game like 'Radiant' Now..."

It's probably not going to be everyone's cup of tea, but if the game as I have described it sounds good to you give it a try.

This game is kinds a bleh. Not much going on like most games. i feel that better renders and animations would help this somewhat. They all look different the girls. The music gets kinda annoying after a while. The dialogue is a big +. Give this a try sure but if u skip then you wont be missing out much.

Enjoyable game v0.2.
Very humanly and emotionally written, especially MC thoughts and internal monologues. Characters different in nature and differences in dialogues.
Graphically moderately solved, without compromising the representation of the human body in grotesque and exaggerated proportions.
Good luck!

Don't really know what the last two reviews mean or which game they playet but the things they said is far away from truth! Spoilers ahead:

The MC has a ongoing relationship with his Wife and, as you find out later, his sister in law. While being in a relationship with those two, his wife also outs the wish that he romances his twin Sister, which they started to do before the accident. Then after the accident the player can decide if he wants to continue those romances or not. Which makes sense if all happened in past.

From the seven girls you see in the title screen, two are romanceable and have lewd scenes. The others were hinted at ( in the back row ). The game doesn't feature that many lewds yet, but the Chapter I update brought more.

Opinions are different but I think last two reviews are unfair and don't really represent the game. But that is just my opinion. I love the game and can't wait to see where it's going.
