VN - Ren'Py - Abandoned - My Sex Quest [v0.16] [Riveralove]

A kinda pre-game to Take me Sweet. Similar characters and game concept but was just broken from the start.

The game had issues with language and non-functioning features.
Gameplay was broken or near non-existant.

Definitely not worth your time.

Geeez, look at the review from Zippity which was like an A4 page long critics, but basically the whole game is not that long. - no offense buddy

However, there is no content in the game (v0.16) so no point to waist any time on it. Already abandoned so no hope for a bright future, even if there is a tiny little potential in the absolutely average/boring story.

Look, if you have a half an hour nothing to do, I mean NOTHING (so its equal to the game's content) then give it a try.

The game has an easy to understand UI and has good CG. The game has potential, but theres some areas where it needs to work on to improve.

1) Have a better tutorial. The tutorial seems to be placed there, just to have one, It felt rushed. It doesn't explain the stats at all (Mood, Arousal, etc).
2) The game has a few bugs. Example is the money. The text says you got money, but the game takes away your money instead.
3) Maybe give the player a tip/hint on how to complete certain tasks or improving relationships. (Optional).

Repetitive, boring almost ugly to play; in 20 minutes of play I met only 2 characters, the plot is non-existent and the easy quests. There is a lot to improve and do to make the game more fascinating. Scion already seen so many times we must look for something more original

The following review is based off my personal experience with playing this Game/Visual Novel... I try to be as brutally honest and detailed as I can, and these are my own opinions and thoughts, from one or more play throughs...


(12/06/2017 - Original Review - v0.13b)

This doesn't even feel like a demo (if it was a demo), as there is practically no content what so ever... You can move around alright, and see other NPC's and click on a very few amount of items, but nothing else beyond that... The only dialogue between the protagonist and other NPCs is when you pick your shirt up and when you try to tickle your sister, and that is about it... I'm petty sure this seems more like a test of basic functionality... The description claims the game will be yet another in a long line of Family Sex corruption games...

Even then I'm not a fan of the movement from the sides of the screen, since it can be a bit confusing at first as to where the turns actually take you... I tend to prefer the room selection button method, and then maybe the side screens for turning in the current room only... But that's just a UI thing...

Have to wait and see if the authors actually add any content worthy of actually testing or playing in the future, but for now it's pretty much an empty shell...

(01/25/2018 - Review Update - v0.15)

Well, this update actually includes a very small amount of content, but there are a lot of issues I have with it...

First, there is an insane amount of broken English, as well as spelling/grammar errors... There are even moments where the choices are in Russian, but when hovered over become broken English... It makes it extremely difficult to make smart choices when the translation/interpretation is dead wrong, too literal, or so exaggerated that you think it means one thing but it means something entirely different, based off the responses you end up getting...

Secondly, you actually get character visuals in this update, and they are not bad... The characters include the male protagonist, a blood related sister and mother, a step sister and her girl friend, and the step father (who you never see) that according to the intro story will be primarily out of the picture... The couple nude scenes and touching scenes you get revolve around the protagonists blood relatives, so wouldn't you know it, this is yet another in a very long line of over used Family Sex themed VN/games...

Third, the navigation isn't horrible, but does make you wonder... Because right now it is a mixture system, a room menu but also using shaded side bars as you move the mouse to one of the cardinal 4 sides on the room... Then add in a Lightbulb icon that brings up some general things you can do in a room (some of which are under development)... Then add in icons for different things in a room you can interact with... Then there is also icons for characters in the room... With all this stuff on the UI, on top of all the other things in the UI, it makes it seem somewhat cluttered sometimes and I'm not a fan of the split types of navigation...

Forth, a majority of interactions and/or things to do just give you under development warnings, even some interactions with characters... Even the visuals for the outside of the home and what I assume is either a mall and/or theater (?) look like splotchy place holder visuals... Plus the choice buttons in the very beginning seem a bit wonky...

Then of course we have the family structure (with some of the family member following the same stereotypical personality types you see in dozens of other VN/games) to include the lonely MILF mother who just needs some help from her loving son (and of course is the one with the most erotic scenes so far), the sister who gets along with her brother (which just so happens to sleep in the same room as her brother, the protagonist), the step sister who seems to be just as pervy as the protagonist (I mean, she did offer to watch porn with him when talking to her in the living room), and who knows about the girl friend since the interactions with her are under development... You can view the characters status from the UI folder in the upper right corner...

The day is broken down into minutes and hours, which I tend to find annoying when most events are specific time based and probably eventually day based (which forces you to waste so much time going from room to room every hour just to see if content is opened up)... It almost seems as though the author's took ideas from other VN/Games they've played and splotched them together into this one, and then added over the top dialogue/monologue along with erotic scenes, to open up and view...

Just based off what little content there is, I can already tell this is going to be a grindy game revolved around corrupting, dominating, and/or manipulating the family and other characters into sexual scenes and/or relationships... Along the way the protagonist will need to make money for going to a university at the end of the summer, along with needing money to purchase stuff... As well as working on stats and so forth...

Overall, I am in no way impressed with the directions this VN/Game is going... It has little to no real and/or meaningful story... It is not designed all that well, and hard if not impossible to understand... There is very little lead into any of the erotic stuff (what little there is), and hardly any character development at all... This VN/Game already smells like it's going to be just another grind porn fest with little in the way of meaningful story content... The visuals are nice, for the most part, but that doesn't make up for this dime a dozen, type of game... No originality so far...

It is still in early development, and is a remake of a prior QSP version... So we'll have to wait and see if it can improve itself... Will I revisit this one? Perhaps once it gets a lot more playable content, just to see if it has gotten any better, or if it is following the same pattern I've seen dozens of times already...
