VN - Ren'Py - Onhold - No More Money [v4.1.1 S4 Ep.1 GE] [RoyalCandy]

First of all, I apologise for my bad English, I help myself with an auto-translator
I was very surprised by this game, I played v3.3.1 S3 Ep.3 Normal Edition.
I put it at the level of Sophia game, in some points even better.
The story slowly leads you into the events of this very interesting family. The cover picture gives you an idea of where we are going to end up, there is the mum, daughter and son lying on the sofa naked and the mum is kissing the son.
The plot is never boring, the dialogue always very hot and the characters have a life of their own, apart from the father who we don't care about.
In the plot I chose to work with Katrina, I don't know what would have changed if I had chosen his girlfriend.
I was very lucky to find this game while it was in its third season and I hope it will go on and be completed.
I am excited about No More Money both in the dialogue, the plot and the erotic part. A masterpiece!

I was pleasantly surprised by the story and characters that are interesting and have believable reactions most of the time (the sister avoiding all kissing and going for blowjob instead feels rather frankly ridiculous) .
Though the MC has a lot of wooden cringe dialogues unfortunately .

At first i thought the father was done really badly in a cartoony way, but even him has some more depth once the story move further.
All in all No More Money is good so far but could be better.

But in the same time i was very annoyed by how punchable the MC face is when he constantly does his narrowing/squinting eyes facial expression as if he had some orgasms half the time he's talking to someone.
I found that frankly it distracts a lot from most of the situation in which the emotion supposed to be conveyed visually turn into "please someone punch that stupid face"

Every other characters men or women have better working facial expression, but the MC ... i was nearly thinking "Ah finally thanks" when the event supposedly horrific happens to him at the end of season 2 / beginning season 3

It's annoying because when the MC is not doing that narrowing/squinting silly eyes thing his emotions work visually better.

I gave it 3 stars but should be more a 3.5 stars currently for me if the rating system allowed half points as the potential is good and could be a 4 stars now that the story has some added crime/investigation elements that gives it some more depth, we'll see how things evolve.

What a great game. It's always nice to see this level of quality and polish on a title.

The characters and quality of writing are what really push this one over the edge. Both are great. Still, the visuals (both still renders and animation) are pretty top-notch.

I really recommend this game. Eager to follow it as it continues development.

This might be a bit of a premature review, since I'm going slowly through the game. It will take me a week to get to the current day. But I did a fast-forward through the game just to see if there will be fucking, and yes, perverse inbreeding is on the board.

Even better, awkward family interactions while half naked inbreeding. So, even without reading a word, it LOOKS perfect.

Then, I started reading the sotry, and MAH GAWD! There's a backstory. There's wants and needs. There's a family dynamic. There's tension and complex feelings. There's cucking your dad, which in my book, you can never go wrong with.

But I can't overstate this enough. The dialogue is, while not phenomenla never before seen, it is honestly great at times. When the MC is talking to his sister, the writing REALLY shines.

But, you know. It's a fuckfest porn game. Don't expect stellar dialogue across the board. The mom stuff is forced, because it's hard not to force such an odd pairing. Her sheer thirst for MC tho, that I love.

The dialogue with random hoes is kinda bad, cuz honestly they are just window dressing.

But where the game NEEDS to shine, which is sexual inuendo but not overtly perverse family banter, then it kicks into high gear. You can tell that they're a family. You can tell that they're friends, you can tell that they like eachoter, and you can tell that they wanna lick eachother's asshole, if given the chance. I personally call that perfection.

Then you have a date with some side hoe, it's okay. But you're there just to get your dick wet. Then you come back home and start bantering with your sister. And it's honestly fun! It makes burring your cock in her asshole that much better.

I wish the game were more focused, just the family eleemts, no side hoes. Or a more solid performance across the board at least. But eh. I'll take what I can get.

Worth your time.

EDIT: I still like the game a lot, but I spoke too soon. S2E1 kinda jumps the shark a bit.

I played season 1 and found the game horrible and forced to quit

Pros
-Good Renders

Cons
-Boring Story
-Choices that does not matter
-Boring characters
-Sex scenes are short and lacks passion
-Mc is boring

There are way better games out there this one is a waste of time

At present it's one the best MILF game I ever played after Away from home,
Story, Character Development, Slow burn everything is just perfect,
Waiting for the next Update and also the upcoming games by developer.

Pretty bad game for me. 20 yo man who can handle everything. Same mom/sis bullshit, trying clothes, seeing naked at the bath. Just pfff. Same boring dialogues, same pickup lines, no actual choices. And the most awful thing in this game is when MC has boner, its peeking out of what he wear. Renders and graphics are okay.

I like the visual: the girls are absolutely beautiful, as is the graphical aspect of this game: very good looking and with a lot of details.
The pacing is good in game, with elipses to justify the evolution of mentalities and relationships, and avoid the "one week later, it was fuckfest" issue in other games.
The plot is interesting even if very previsible. I'm looking forward for anything which come next because what I played (v3.3.1.) was very likeable.

The first girlfriend is the girl with whom I have had the most problem, not because of ther temper or personality, but her face. Since s2 it feels a bit better but it's still the least beautiful to me... which is quite saying something as she is a very gorgeous girl.

Absolutely splendid! This novel serves as a textbook example of a 'slow burner', its storyline, narrative pacing, and emotional groundwork rank among the finest on this forum — I dare say, without equivocation, they are the finest. The author of AWAM ought to learn a thing or two about spinning an engaging erotic stories.

One of the best games I have come across. The humor in the game is amazing. I had such a laugh playing this game. Spent almost a day playing the Real Estate Agent route. Now I can't wait for the next update.

Looking forward to the next update. Great work @royalcandy

It has the potential to be the best incest game ever. The relationship between the main characters is excellent and unique. It's a slow burn, but it has a lot of hot scenes, the animation is very good, and the dialogue is one of the best. The secondary characters are good, but Mom and Sis steal the show. The Dev is reliable and transparent, and there is good communication, so because it's not the usual incest game, I think the pace is acceptable. If you like this genre, give it a try!!!

It's a really good game. Beautiful renders, hot women, great music. I enjoyed it.

My only complaint would be the MCs dialogue. He's pretty much a rapid fire of cheesy, but sometimes clever, pick up lines. It comes on too thick many times, though.. It's like a pick-up artists trainer. The MC almost never comes off as a serious person and it's kind of nonsense. But the interactions with the MCs mom and sis are well done for the most part. That's the best part of the game when the MC interacts with his Mom, and sis especially. Most of the rest is just to cheesy,. Little repeatability but still good for one play through.

I really wanted to like this. The renders look incredible and the music is on point, but it falls flat on many aspects such as the story, the characters and the choices. The characters are pretty one-dimensional, they have one trait that sets them apart and that's it. There are a few exempted from this like Lauren, Lisa and Bea, but they have too little content. Most of the content is on the mom, who is just a mother conflicted for having feelings for her son, there is not much more to her. Then there's the bratty little sister, which is probably this AVN's biggest downfall.

To get on the little sister's route, you have to make a fool of yourself by choice. This also ties into the aspect of choices. You do not have much control over the MC's actions, but when you do get to make choices, you have to either make a fool of yourself out of your own will or make some kind of creepy choice. If you end up on the little sister's route, you have to allow her to do whatever she wants with you, fall for her every scheme and let her blue ball the MC every single time. Basically, there is only one route, one story. There are right and "wrong" choices. If you do not play the way the dev wants you to, you will miss out on content.

The dialogue is also incredibly repetitive. Every family interaction is just a never-ending string of banter that mostly revolves around teasing the MC. There are a few rare exceptions where the little sister or the mom are on the receiving end, but it's mostly the MC who will look like a fool one way or another.

Lastly, there is the MC, and it's hard to say anything about him. The only thing that stands out about him is his ability to brush off his own embarrassments like it was nothing. He doesn't mind, he never gets angry and the next moment he forgets about it. He lets the little sister get away with just about anything, which I suppose is a way to show their sibling bonds, but she is far too annoying for me to care. Aside from that, the MC is pretty much just a blank canvas. He does nothing worthwhile and his thoughts are predictable. I say he never shows emotions apart from being embarrassed for two seconds because he can't go for two seconds without getting a boner.

That's nothing we haven't seen before, which is why I'm giving it 3 stars which signifies "average" here, but mostly because of the music and the renders that honestly look incredible, but what good are these renders if the story is so mediocre?

Version I'm currently playing, No More Money [v3.2.1 S3 Ep.2]

I'm currently on Season 2 Episode 2 and felt it was enough to leave some feedback...

+ I'm a sucker for brunettes so I really like the Charlotte and Triss models.
The other models are overall nice and attractive.

-- I don't like that all the models have the basic same body types. Unrealistic (yes, I know this is a fantasy, escapism VN), but I always feel it is a missed opportunity on the dev's part when they choose the same long legs, full ass, big tit bodies.

+ The writing is good. Not the best and it wasn't till Season 2 I think the story got some chuckles/laughs out of me. But don't get me wrong, I'm into the story enough that I'm not skipping only to the sex/nudity scenes.

Edit: The last episode or two of Season 2 and Season 3 ep1 the witty repertoire and other dialogue really stepped up a notch or two. Some great lines in there!!

> Animations are meh. Not always smooth and too short.

+ Edit: By the ends of Season 2 the animations were improved over Season 1, especially the kissing scenes.

> Sex scenes are meh. Too short and not much build up for several of the girls (e.g. personal trainer Sheila and redhead Lauren)

+ I'm clearly a fan of incest and the build up between MC and his family is nicely paced.

> I really don't like Emma's face. Especially the first video call the MC has with her the face seems disproportionate. This would be a minus (--) rating but later she looks more normal and we find out some things about here physical appearance specifically, which explains everything to me.

+ I want one of those monster hamburgers that Lauren and MC eat! It's bigger than their hands by 2x.

+ I haven't noticed much if any typos and the like.

+ I'm a fan of the girl comes on the scene and we get a full-body pan of her and her outfit.


> It's almost a little much on the full body pans, especially when Auntie shows up in town we get 6 or 7 in a short amount of time.

+ I'm a fan of the slide shows/full body pans to show time passing with characters interacting and the like.

OVERALL:
I'm interested to find out where the story and characters go. And I'll revisit this one in the future release...once I've exhausted the two or so paths available (Lauren versus Lisa paths so far).

The overall flow of the story and the character development is something I did not expect to be this good in a VN. I especially enjoyed the last update as it had a rather wholesome feeling to it. Great work dev, keep it up.

Very cool game. Good speed in story telling and relationship progression.
The characters are also well done and believable.
Thank you and keep it up.

I pulled with this game for a long time. I watched Demo about 2 years ago - I liked it.
But updates were released very slowly, that I already forgot who these female employers were, which one to go to, which girl to start romances with, why it’s impossible with both, etc.
Therefore, I took a break for a year.
Now I look - everything has changed. And it became very interesting. Animation of sex more "alive".
Good luck and thanks to the author.

It's just awesome, the chemistry between MC and Tris is beyond amazing, i don't care about the slow burn as long as the updates are top tier!! 5 stars easily, it's nice to see a incest game that focus on the plot and has a excellent one!

As a pure CG gallery, it works. Renders are good (some mistakes with clothing and gravity but a fine job otherwise).
If you're interested in plot development, believable character interaction, dialogues, etc. Pass your way.

1. The MC is a Gary Sue trough and through. 20 yo, can do anything, gets entangled in criminal activities with people he doesn't know, yet always feel sure of himself and in control (nightclub job)
2. Old school white knighting and misogyny everywhere. Girls stay home, are only useful for getting pampered and fucked while the MC is the only active protagonist.
3. Panorama shots. Stop with that stupid thing! One or two is good, but know half the images! If you click during the panning, you miss the image. It adds nothing, it's distracting and it robs the player of its agency by preventing them to advance and skip image when they want.

I should start by saying I am not a fan of incest games, but there are so many on this site, if you don't take the plunge periodically, it is hard to find something new. I tried to take my bias into account into this rating.

So... the good. The women are all hot. They are familiar models but the dev did a good job with the MODs to give them all a unique look. The renders are pretty good and the staging/scene blocking is pretty good as well. The story, while not original, is solid enough. And while the incest makes me uncomfortable, the dev is easing into it which is helpful.... for me anyway...

The not so good... The renders, while clean and well staged, need some work. The clothing assets on some of the women are not fitting right. The school uniform looks horrible on the sister and needs to be fixed. Even mom has some clothes that are just way too clingy.

The MC is also a bit of a Gary Sue. I can almost buy getting a job on your first try, but the dialogue during the interview was just laughable and beyond ridiculous. I am not looking for super reality here, but it was just silly. Also, if this is supposed to be set in the US, you have to have a license to sell Real Estate. You have to take a course and pass a relatively difficult test in order to just get a license. You just can't get hired and start selling right away. I won't even get into the whole motorcycle scene... lol.

I know I am being a little hard on this, and I am not looking for a lot of realism as this is escapism after all, but I do want the story to have a grasp of reality. When it goes too far afield, it starts to pull me out of the story and that's not what I want. Plus, and I have made this observation frequently, there are so many good, well written VNs out there that mediocrity just isn't good enough.

Personally, I think the dev is talented enough to really produce a solid VN here and, to be fair, I am looking forward to see more of this story. I just think the story and the images need to be tightened up a bit.
