Ren'Py - Completed - No More Secrets [v0.11] [RoyalCandy]

A good game, I enjoyed it.

The story was interesting enough to keep reading. The writing isn't that great, some of the flirty jokes and the whole bad boy shtick was pretty cringe. The second half and ending felt pretty rushed and wasn't as enjoyable as the first half of the novel. More fleshed out characters and relationships would have been great.

The renders looked good, there are no real animations but there are some back and forth diashow-like sequences.

There is no audio at all which makes it less immersive but it's fine because the story wasn't that interesting anyway.

The biggest Pros are the interesting cast of characters and a decent novel length.

Gonna give this 5 starts..why. First great graphics, good story and dialogue was really good. I played with the mod to see all the scenes and endings in one go, but it still took many hours, so lots of game time.

Lots a variety, lots of sex, only a couple of animations. Most sex scenes were stills but lots and pretty well done.

Didn't find any errors or bugs, and it kept me engaged till the end, and didn't use skip or skip unseen text at all (rare for me)

Completed! So that is a big plus. Lots of endings, many variables. Ending sequences were not a click and done, there were multiple shots, sex and a story to each ending. Still wish for a few other options in the endings but, this is pretty damn good.

All and all, a very fun romp, great all around and finished. Yes nothing is perfect, but for a completed game that has this much content and story....5 stars.

Agreed to shmanzu's review below, its a game where the male character is just a brat who doesnt know how to be a decent man. Like why did you complain when somebody help you by giving you a room after your mom died and your father jailed, and then felt used by your mom's friend that cared about you then married to a man who help you? Not only that, stealing $3000 (or 1K I forgot) from him aswell? What a bitch. I mean I know what the reasons and what the secret about them, but still, what a dickhead.

The scene option is inconsistent. At first few episode its text based option to choose how you fuck someone, and then the rest to the end using a button with illustration/icon. Which is fine by me but its better to remake the old one with the new one to avoid any confusion.

The scene animation is average, its click to move your penis type of animation. I mean it doesnt require animation to be a game or to enjoy it, but fully animated is better. At least fully animated with 2 frame/pics per thrust/pump.


Despite all above, I love the render and visual of the female characters. Some of them is repeatedly used on other games, but some of them is good. The comedy is good, well atleast for me, but some of it is cringe and corny. So I put this game on my "good game, worth replay it, but with caution" list.

Worth to play.

I struggled to get through this but I did. That counts for something.

Story:

It was juvenile, immature and filled with a bunch of head scratching/cringe moments. Packed with the usual stereotypical cliches like the character Rene being the typical big bad boogeyman. This led to countless annoying racial undertones, not to mention to obsession over his "Big Black Cock". I wondered at one point if Brian and Steven wanted to fuck Rene all along and keeping him from Lizzie and the girls was all a ploy. In the Jeane incest thing was pointless, it would've been better off if she was just the foster mom or guardian. Brandy was probably the only decent love interest.

Renders:
Considering this debut in 2018 I'd say it was good.

Animations:
Okay.

Dialogue:
Didn't fit. Sometimes the teachers was talking like street kids.

Overall, I didn't see the appeal.

No More Secrets [v0.11] [RoyalCandy]

Reading from the preview of the story line gives us an expectation for some interesting secrets about MC’s father in prison and expected some interesting investigation but end up disappointment; no action planned for this task. The MC continues his daily regular life without any feeling for his father. Just describing a normal boy grown up and deviated from good character to bad character during his late teenage later realized the mistake and improved as good character by himself nothing interesting in that part.


For the entire story; MC’s father is in prison and mother has passed away before the MC grew up; No siblings in this scenario I am wondering why & how this is considered as incest. MC is not related to anybody around him but for the fact he is grownup in adopted family.


MC’s screw up for birthday gift is real nonsense by leaving it to his best friend who is very childish and mischievous who swap the gift from other guy is real nonsense. Funniest and intolerable fact is that MC knowingly accept it and play along which is not a good portrait.


Pros

• A simple story emphasizing polyamorous.
• MC’s Sex approach with his merely mom like character (Jeane) is well described / portrayed.
• Good quality of image renders.
• Good quality of animations.
• Playability, performance and grammar are all just OK no issue.

Cons

• Sound: Almost no sound except background music.
• Lack of guide for navigation; the player has to familiarize by trial and error. Not a big deal / trouble
• Lack of seductiveness in sexual approach.
• No / nothing secret could be observed.

Really good game, characters are varied enough where you can get attached to them. Two downsides are that the hot scenes are underwhelming and that the last few chapters felt really rushed compared to the rest of the game but definitely give this game a try.

Overall the story is fine by AVN standard, different path buildings are kind of ill-balanced by that's fine by me. Renders are all static but the character models are good enough to endure, esepcially the mature ones.
The issues I have in this game, however, is the character model of MC strikes me as an underage brat who is nothing like a 18-year-old boy, which turns me off a little bit. Same goes to other male classmates. I mean, if you wanna tells a story about18-year-old students' school life, at least makes it more plausible.

Yet another man whore simulator where you can lie, cheat and manipulate without consequences to fuck all the people in your life, including your own family.

PROs:

• Renders are good, most characters are good-looking.
• Writing is above average for a porn VN, which is to say that it has been properly proofread and edited, and that characters have some degree of internal consistency.

CONs:

• Moral of the story: you can lie and manipulate all you like, just don't do it on prom night.
• Weak-ass harem: everyone just suddenly becomes okay with everything, even though you lied to them over and over.
• Writing goes off a cliff in the last few chapters: seems life the dev was done with the game and wanted to get it wrapped up quick.
• Stefania and MC live in the uncanny valley.

TL;DR: Despite the unsatisfying ending, it is a relatively good man-whore simulator. Worth a play if you were a nerd in high-school and want to have a taste of what it might have been like to be very charismatic and manipulative.

Great girls, especially the mother figure.

Lots of interactions make the game fun to play; however the game starts as a "free sim" game but quickly we understand that it's a story game and the "free sim" aspect is useless because each time you will have the game tell you what to do next... it would be more easy and best to do it automatically.

As for the girls, this is close to a harem ending, but it's not so at some point you will have to break up with some girls.

Another negative point is the fact that the game has a lot of content in the start, average content in the middle, and little content in the end, as if the dev had to rush because he exhausted all his ideas.

Sex scenes are just pictures one after the other, and the sex is quite vanilla. The many partners compensate a little however since you will probably find one or more girls to your liking.

The story is average, rendering is below average, the sex scenes are just static images with no animation, there is no music implemented which made the playthrough really lacking, character models are just fine, plot progression is really slow, character progression/relationships is okay too but the ending is really bad. I can see that RoyalCandy improved in a lot of aspects by looking at his newer game 'No More Money'.

This is one of those vanilla but not half assed games. The story telling is a bit slow combining with the lack of " depth " from the characters is the biggest turn off about this. Easily's a 3.5/5 for me, and i think this game suitable for most players if they are not very skeptical about the whole plot

Great storytelling. I really wished, I could care about all girls, because many girls have something about to love them... A forced breaking is harsh, and I had no good time to pick the right girl(s). Aver knowing the "secrets", I felt like an asshole to pick the most obvious choice and go with the family instead. Steph might have been the girl I would care most, because she really had a bad time and seemed to really fall for me. True falling, because of her past.

Again, I recommend some calming music stream from YouTube, because no music included. Music brings game alive, devs. It makes the difference in "the game was ok" and "the game was brilliant". Glad, I picked the music to play the game, and read every single line - not skipping one of them.

Great game, I'd recommend to everyone!

RoyalCandy has done a great job with this one. Immediately going to check out their other works. Great story, character design, and image quality. Only suggestion for improvement would be to add animations for greater immersion.

This game starts well and looks like there will be a lot of meaningful choices to make and a possible mysterious story to unravel. Some of the girls also look really good and are interesting like Vanessa.

But at a certain point I don't know what happens, its like the dev just stopped trying. There is like no interesting conversations at all, they are all like 10 sentences and then you move to the next event, make 0 sense and look written by a 10 year old (I am not exaggerating on this part).

But the worst part by far, is that there is absolutely no story progression at all, the mystery is literally all shoved in a few scenes in the last part and makes no sense at all, it was the worst payoff I have ever seen.

Amazing game, I played it till the end and tried all the endings which were available by restarting from the beginning of Chapter 11.

Then, I had to download this patch/cheat in order to play the remaining endings (esp. the ones with Jeanne) and also the scene where Jeanne tells the MC she is his birth mom.

Gave this game 5 stars and I would have given 6 if possible.

Not a bad game, I liked some dialogues.
The story is average.
The art is ok.
No sound.
Pretty bad relationship progression.

I can't give lower rating because someone actually put some work into this, it just turned average for my taste.
Something you can play with the mod , but don't expect innovative or original things from this game, since it's pretty average. At least it's a solid average.

Had fun. Great Game, good story and chars, good visuals, nice endings. Only downside are no scene animations. See that lots of work and hours to put on the game. Hope to see more games from dev. Thanks for the experience.

Well i gave 3 stars solely because all the girls were hot.Besides the story seems simple yet playable but the ending sucks .What happened to mother ?What about natalie?And all other secrets must be disclosed .Ending seems to be rushed and plain especially after all that buildups.The sex scenes are mediocre at best.I mean there's no animation and the there's same sex positions.

I'm glad I got the gallery mod.
I was done with my day and just needed the excitement. I think the story is actually quite good based on what little I saw. But the sex scenes were disappointing. So disappointing that I won't be keeping the game as a reminder if good times

tl;dr: How this game got 4,5 stars with 150 votes is some kind of Iluminati stuff...

Na sorry, im at Chapter 4 now and i just cant go on. What overshadows the whole game are the piss poor sex scenes.

Its a set ofdifferent choices which you can all take after another like:

You fuck her doggy
You fuck her missionary
ect ect

BUT Its just ONCE SINGLE PICTURE per option and 5 lines of text. Its so fucking boring that at some point i just clicked all the options to "see" them and be done with the scene...

Story so far is kinda blurry. Its slice of life with a wannabe funny or serious teen MC who uncovers (by accident) secrets of others. Behind all this seems to be something fishy with his stepdad but as i said, i just cant go on.
