Ren'Py - My New Neighbors [v1.80] [Rmaximus]

This game is a fairly nice experience.
Its perfect for just having a relaxing read without too much drama and it also have some wholesome moments.
I played the game in version 1.01

Story
The story itself is nothing out of the ordinary, you gain power to corrupt and then go around and do that. It is nice for what it aims to be, namely the glue that holds together the world building. But if you are searching for a deep and engaging story with detailed world building, you are likely at the wrong place here.

Characters
The characters are interesting and well written and it is fun to follow their individual stories. This is also the main focus of the game and where 95% of the story takes place. One thing the game does a good job in is that character stories often intertwine with one another and thus making characters stay relevant throughout the whole game, even after they are corrupted.
Every character is also unique which makes every one a fresh experience, once you start to corrupt them.

Sandbox
I have noticed that people have sometimes strong opinions on this matter so I would like to make a brief description of it here so you know what to expect. It is not the typical sandbox where you need to manage stats like your energy or money and so on. The only stat that matters in the game is the affection or submission stat of every individual girl(A girl has either one or the other, never both) . You need to raise it high enough to be able to trigger a certain scene that makes her transition into the next phase.
You raise this stat by triggering events for the girl at specific locations and time of day. As I wanted to see these scenes anyway I never felt that I would need to grind a girls affection/submission. There are enough scenes in each phase to keep you entertained. It also slows down the game and makes the pace much more enjoyable.
Otherwise the whole purpose of the sandbox is just progression control, so you can choose which girls to focus on in what order. Your choice is somewhat limited at the beginning, but the game opens up greatly once you have successfully corrupted your family.
So if even if you normally dislike sandboxes, I still think you could give this one a go. But If you are on the contrary looking for a complex sandbox to dive into, you will likely not be satisfied with this one.

Conclusion
All in all this game aims to be a relaxing, sometimes wholesome and erotic experience. The sex scenes are all animated by the way and look great.
For what the game aims to be, I think it is a 5/5.

I think this game is a fun, relaxing, and rewarding experience for several reasons:

1. The pacing is good. There are a lot of games that get into purple prose when the more organic and straightforward dialogue of this game works a lot better. It is also better at breaking up story elements into bite-sized pieces, which helps me stay engaged, instead of just watching with "Auto" turned on.

2. The gameplay is pretty relaxed that often just requires you to interact with the people you seek to seduce however you like, specific progression requirements are relatively rare and are pretty clearly explained in the character display, and there is no chance of derailing the story that I've found.

4. There are a LOT of women to corrupt and seduce, and the characters are pretty fun, although Zoe takes a while before she stops being the stereotypical megajerk.

On a side note, there was a mention of adding a potential NTR route to this game, but given the VAST amount of material and number of characters involved so far, I really don't think adapting that much content would be as productive as this game just focusing on what it is good at.

Tons to do with well paced content, the dialogues are well thought out and mature enough for enjoyment. The sex scene and settings are great quality, the game part feels smooth and fluent.

Overall, this is much better corruption harem sandbox game compare to other alternatives.

v1.0
+girls look great
+lots of content
+game is well focused on specific fetishes

The game is a sandbox. This just lets you get all the girls in whatever order you want (while optionally skipping disliked girls). They are for the most part self contained. And you can get them all.

The game only features 5 actual choices:
Choice 1: At the start of the game you will be asked to become an incubus. Yes makes you a chad. you fuck all the girls. No makes you a cuck, another man is the incubus and he will fuck all the girls in your life, stealing them away
Choice 2: Your maid's daughter has 2 routes, romance or discipline. Choose the one you prefer.
Choice 3 & 4: two girls give you a choice on how they will look after you transform them into demons
Choice 5: one of the demon girls will give you a choice on her new default boob size after her curse is lifted. (she can still temporarily shapeshift those though)

Those are the only choices in the game.
Every time you talk to a girl you gain +1 affection. There are lots of dialog trees to cover and I personally find them interesting. If you hit a repeat just hold down ctrl to instantly skip it.

As such this does not feel grindy at all. If anything I often find myself trying to avoid leveling up a girl so I can see all her current dialog first before progressing her corruption stage.

Typically every 5 affection points you will find that affection can no longer progress until you visit a certain location (varies each time) and trigger a cutscene which will advance that girls transformation and unlock raising affection again.

You do not make any choices when talking to girls. It is an automatic scene whose content depend on the girl corruption rank as well as on whether you are in the cuck or chad routes.

Well ok, if the girl is highly corrupted then sometime when you talk to a group of girls together you will get a choice like "fuck girl A" or "fuck girl B". it has no effect on the game and you can repeat that scene as many times as you want to get all the possible branches

this lack of choice is not necessarily a bad thing. I am enjoying this game a lot.

Really solid amount of content in v1.0. In general, I find HS models can end up looking very samey; My New Neighbors does a fantastic job considering this medium. Quite the diverse cast available to interact with.

The sandbox style that lets you go at your own pace and not miss key events or dialog is a big plus in my book, and the built-in hint system easily fills in any gaps in the gameplay should you feel stuck. The body expansion and progressive "sluttifying" clothing elements are also great to see and some of my favorites!

The story isn't revolutionary, but can be fairly interesting if you enjoy the gameplay loop. If I have to be picky: I'm not a huge fan of how you have to basically complete the corruption/story segment of your family before a large portion of the cast is unlocked to you. But there is plenty of avenues for additional content to be added, I'm definitely looking forward to continued releases!

i was not expecting to like this game when i discovered while playing that its probably taken from one of these huge japanese games were you can customize girls and do many things with them
but the developer won me over by surprising me each step of the way
from the great story
to the fact that the sex scenes are close together
to the different girls with their different features and their different stories and the corruption levels they go through
and then each big event that marks a level of the game
we even had a few orgies which is great
but i think this game is completed its very hard to get people to pay for ntr route so its probably not going to happen

Atrocious, garbage tier storytelling. Basically meet girls and they instantly lust for you through magic. Some decent effort at creating a cast of interesting characters. Overall writing is 4/10.

Attractive but dated graphics, sometimes weird direction. 6/10

Annoying sandbox with mostly fake choices and repetitive grind. 1/10

I liked the game mostly because it does some aspects of my transformation fetish somewhat well - since I'm the kind of guy that likes the notion of "bigger and better" -. The assortment of characters is pretty good, in my opinion.
That said, I'm not that OK with incest, so the family members that I could leave last, were left last. But I won't let that detract from the game, some people are into that.
Oh, and I've started to play the game on its 1.0 release, so I might've have not gotten all the issues that most people had gotten. But there were a good number of typos and grammar erros. Having a good revision will do good. Also, on the teacher's path with her ex student, some images were getting swaped, since I've opted for her having big bodongas, and in some pictures, she had small (which are normal) ones.

Good choice of girls, but way too grindy and the poses are too bland (at least the starting ones, the later ones might be great, but to get to there you need to grind whole afternoons), it's like a worse version of Solvalley School with slightly less good looking girls, worse animations and poses.

Do have to say, I greatly enjoyed this game.

First, the transformations. I am a big sucker for transformations stories and this game is full of them. It is a real treat to slowly corrupt every women you come across into your succubus court. To have all their breasts (and asses) constantly expand and expand to represent their love and lust for the MC.

Second, the story is decent. Could not follow it the best but that is because I am here for the leads.

Third, this is personal preference but did want some management in the game. Like you are being hunted by witch hunters and if you make to many mistakes, the game could end. This is not one of those games. Here, you can take your time seducing any girl in any order you want. I just prefer some puzzle or challenge to the game so that is why I gave it four stars. Still a must play for big boobs lovers.

In it's current state, it's good. Really good.
The principle of "the more you corrupt, the more busty and chubby they get" is right up my alley. I absolutely fucking love chubby girls.

And it has a story, not an amazing one as it's not the focus, but with a game like that, the dev(s) could just have gone with none at all, I'm really happy to see it has one, and it's an entertaining one !

I'm at the start of the story (after the family thing) but I don't know if there's possibility to get them to wear something.
It would be cool that, after a certain point, you create a demon-textile so they can wear outfits.
Sexy/skimpy/lingerie outfits. Of course

With that said....
The bad.

The MC.
For the love of everything that's unholly, STOP using this MC. It's the most disgusting, unrelatable MC in this universe.
There are a lot of good ones out there, and if you ask/credits, I'm sure you can get good ones.
Heck, you can make one in 20mins top.
So please, do it.
I really can't stand this Man-rat hybrid. And I know I'm not the only one. Yes-yes !


P.S. : As English isn't my native language, there must be a fuck ton of mistakes/typos/syntax/etc... So if you want to, you can correct them !

Good day to all !

It's a bit grindy, but I like transformation games a lot, and this is that. I't pretty nice that later girls are getting multiple transformation routes. It would be cool if the earlier girls got some too.

A must-play for all Harem/Corruption Lovers, everyone who loved to play Corruption, will find himself enyong this game as well. It has a similar playstyle.

And boy I really hate that you have to write at least 200 characters for a rating, but go play this game, it's one of my personal favorites.

Grindgrindgrind.
It's got that same problem a lot of these games have where the vast majority of your time is spent in a "sleep - wake up - rest until the time the girl you want is available - do the event - rest until bed time - sleep" cycle again and again so you can raise the affection stat by 1 every time until it reaches 15 and you can unlock another scene to cycle over and over.
This game might be worse than usual for this kind of stuff, since a lot of the events just tend to repeat; this game's strength is more in the amount of girls, not the number of their scenes, I guess, but even that's a hindrance because all the girls are the same character models you've seen 1.3 billion times before, which is enough to bring me from a 3 to a 2.

Also, more of a nitpick, I find it annoying how long it takes before you can leave the house, everything is ultra-repetitive in there.

The gameplay is your usual renpy-sandbox grind with plenty of characters who yo will either like or not. What sets this game apart from most others like it are the extremely fluid animations and great character models, even though they are the same old HS models. Bottom line is, I give this 5 stars for BIG FUCKING TITS, MOMMY MILKY.

This game is a little gem, i loved the characters and their wholesome perverted relationships. The only thing that bugs me a little is the must-be-nude rule for the demons. I get it, but it'll be very hot if some kind of garments could be excluded (like the apron or perhaps some roleplay costumes).
That said, well written game with a ton of potential. I'm a fan

Hmm, how to summarize... This game is good in many ways and bad in a few ways. Overall I think the dev has created a fap-worthy game. If you're here for a compelling story, or exciting gameplay, you will not have the best time. This game has enough of that to engage you and allow you to masturbate lol. Which, to me, is perfectly fine. I could do with some more story, I could do with some more gameplay, but hey, I'm not on steam, I'm on F95zone.

That said, this game does miss a few things in the design aspect that I think are a shame. First, while I'm about to complain about the story, I don't think it's as bad as what some people have made it out to be. Ex: I saw someone write "YOUR NEIGHBORS SHOW UP NAKED AND IT'S TOTALLY CHILL???" and, yeah it's odd, and the dev does poorly explain it... but it is explained... Like I said in the intro, I'm not here for a story that's going to move my soul. The story definitely has some things that make me think "... why didn't the dev just do xxx?" however, so... story isn't perfect.

The other complaint is around the sex scenes. They are actually great, so don't let this discourage you, I just feel there is a lot of untapped potential. Music and audio during the sex scenes is absent. Why? Drop some 70's bow-chicka wow wow and some over the top moans on that shit. Also, dialog is absent during the repeatable scenes. Why? Put some kinky lines in there, we can hide them if we want. Beyond that, the scenes are great. Multiple stages of fully animated sex per pose. Multiple poses/actions per girl(s). Many many girls. Oral, Vaginal, Oral, "impregnation-talk", incest, NTR (MC cucking another male, there is no MC being cucked content that I've seen), etc. The sex scenes and dialog leading up to them are pretty good. But then dev dropped the ball a bit during. Eh. They work. They just could be better.

So, all in all, I got multiple faps out of it so I can't really give it anything less than a 4 star (which is kinda the bottom of my "recommended" scoring). I think the game already has plenty of content, dev just needs to put a cap on it. Make us feel like we're progressing towards something (currently I'm just fucking women like crazy, which is chill, but I literally will never think of this game again now). Also polish the sex scenes as stated above. AAAAnnndd... some more multi-girl scenes would be awesome lol

My New Neighbors [v0.85]

Story = Poor...there is nothing new, if you are expecting something new, nice, or wholesome, well...is not there.
Renders = Some good, some just copy/paste with minor changes.
Sound = Yeah, we have some musics, good taste too.
Amount of content =If you are starting right now, there is some good amount of content, of course is a sandbox, do you need to do stuff over and over, but is not bad overall

Well...what i can say about this game, first is the giant size, there is game, with the same graphics, with more content, there is 1/4 of the size of this game. I really wish that i can like the game, is not bad but there is stuff that i don't like, for example, this is the "harem" version of the game, but some of the characters keep talking about "hey, my ex have done this to me", at night in the market zoe have sex with another girl, without the mc being there, she even joke about being bi now, is that ntr? I believe is not because they are just fuck buddies, but that bother me, but i'm an annoying person, and that is my taste. The game is not bad, don't get me wrong, but there is a lot of stuff that could be a lot better, the story is really poor, some of that is a complete joke, even for a porn game, we have some good models, but some of them are really just copy/paste with minor changes (eye color, hair, boobs).
I really love a good story, for some games even if the renders are bad and the game have a good story, i can love, but this game is bad, there is a lot of times that you playing you just say "really?",the mc is that kind of guy that you really don't care about him, he is just happy to get his dick wet. If one day, the game have some rework in the writing, could be a really good game, like i said, if the writing is good, the rest is a bonus, but at the moment, there is a lot of better games here.

I LOVE games with transformation (breasts & ass expansion) and outfit changes (slutiness), but New Neighbours is simply addictive! I couldn't stop until I reach the current point of actualizations. I really like the story, the characters desings and the characters personalities and back stories, I hope RMaximus keep doing great things with this game. Thank you RM.

This a mildly heartwarming and mostly feel-good game, which is surprising given it's plot. As you can see from the title picture, there's a variety of body shapes/sizes, skin tones, and hair colors among the various girls so there's almost certain to be at least one that really works for you.

The gameplay open-world, which means its mildly grindy since you have to repeat scenes to raise stats. However, the girls are all available at multiple times each day, and are easy to find. Also, you usually only need to raise each girls stats 2-3 times. Finally, by clicking on the phone icon, you can see what each girls stats are and what you need to do to advance their storyline.

The graphics are from Honey Select, which slightly limits the interaction varieties and angles, but means there's a lot more scenes and girls (since they're somewhat easier to make).

One thing I really would like to see is some dialogue to go with the sex scene animations. Hopefully that will come with a later release.

Overall, this is a very good game with likeable characters (no douchebag MC here, he actually looks out for his girls), a solid storyline, well-written dialogue and enjoyable gameplay.
