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

SPOILER ALERT !!
4.5/5
so after playing non stop ever since the update came out, here are my few thoughts:

Overall - The end was satisfactory for me, seems to be a bit rushed at some moments but all in all a great game & worth playing. Kudos to RoyalCandy for finishing this, excited to see your future project. (& it appears that this next game is about Natalie & most likely to be set in the same NMS universe so finger crossed for some more Saeki & the sexiest of them all Mahabbah (with or without Hijab, i don't give a shit, she's the hottest one nocap )

Fav Ending - Stephanie's, closely followed by Brandy's. They both had like proper happy ending, well except for that old brain-brandy scene. i know it was supposed to be cute and all but still mehhh.

Ending I was most excited about - Nicole's. Nothing too deep here, just that she was one of my fav LI (guess i have thing or so for tattooed / goth girls, they seem to catch my eye first, be it any game) and wanted to see how everything pans out after i chose her over brandy . Again, nice ending, could've been better but good enough i guess (consider the other "mini - harem" endings.)

Least fav ending - Jeane's.
JK lol her ending was cool too, they addressed the Lizze issue in this one so it seemed more refined for me than any of those multi girls endings. Although i think we all would've appreciated some more Jeane, she lacked content.
Single forever was obvi the worst one. boy atleast do something with Saeki, she's pregnant for god sake

Fav Moments - "Visiting Nicole as the Long Lost Husband" scene. idk but that reunion was cute
"Lizze/ Vannesa getting jealous of Brandy" scenes.
"After Abortion" scene with Stephanie.

Least fav moment - The scene with Brandy at the prom after you reject her. That was heart breaking af.

Fav LIs - Stephanie, Nicole & Brandy. Glad their endings were one of the better ones.

Least fav LIs - Amie & Vannesa. what can i say, not my type i guess

Highly recommended game, the dames in this game are some of the best, both visually, and personality wise, their stories will intrigue most people.

Story 4.75/5 - A very strong start to the story, it immediately grabs your attention and makes you want to learn more about every character, and what secrets they might be hiding. Very good deconstruction of some character tropes. The only reason it does not get the full 5, is because some of the endings despite being adequate feel a bit rushed and anti-climatic. They still provide good closure for every girl's story, its just much weaker compared to the start of the stories of each person.

Graphics 4.75/5 - The models chosen for the game are fantastic, you can actually tell the teen girls apart from the milfs very easily, and not just because of "bigger boobs and butts", their skeleton frame, and facial features are well defined between youthful girls, and more young middle aged ones. The males arent... bad... per say... but they arent handsome either.

Characters 5/5 - This is the area where the game shines the most !! The characters are fantastic, and a couple of them are standouts even despite this high praise. You get all the usual tropes, but presented in such a way and with such growth that you end up feeling for most if not all the girls... Shallow cheerleader type that seems like the school slut ? dig deeper and find a fragile neglected teen acting out due to loneliness... The good nerdy girl ? spend some time with her, and realized she is just waiting to share her passion with someone worthy... Your sister's best friend that seems like the happiest person in the world ? What if her situation at home isnt all that happy, and she laughs in order to not cry ? All of this you will discover and more during this game, in order to have people hiding no more secrets from you.

This is a rushed finish if I ever saw one.

Advice for new players? Endings are limited. No big group harem. If you want scenes, follow the walkthroug. If you want to avoid leading on and hurting certain characters, then pick who you want, and play to her.
There is a single 4-way ending, but I won't say for who, bluntly. But for the most part, you end with a single girl (or pairs our of the 4 way).

Because I liked the game as much as I did, up to chapter 10, I can't and won't give this a lower score, but the ending really did disappoint. With the game being considered "complete" at version 0.11, and chapter 11 being just a few short minutes, it's hard to not be disappointed.

I can think of several things that would have improved the game.

1) Ending choices suck. Some girls you spend a large amount of time with, and some almost no time. Maybe if, say, Stephani got more story time, she might be a better ending choice, as one example. Where as Vanessa got a lot of screen time, so it makes more sense to go for her, as another example.

2) Harem ends. This is in spoilers, just in case. Stephani is the "sex goddess," but gets no harem ending? I mean, if Amie will let have a harem despite being required to turn down a threesome earlier because she needs people to be loyal, then why does Stephani not qualify for a harem? I think a large part of why is because, after the party and the day in the pool, most of the girls have no scenes together again. There could have been many chances to build intercharacter relationships, and they were just dropped.
And that's not the only character. Brandy and Nichole. I'm honestly shocked that their deep and close friendship plays no more part of the story. Moreso, I'm surprised you don't have the choice to pick the two of them, together. If anything, the most realistic harem endings would be with Sis and Vanessa, and with Brandy and Nichole. More realistic that Amie or Mom, let alone the 4 way ending
I think if the game gave some characters more time to shine, more time to connect with each other, etc, there would be options for more harem endings.

3) Hurting the girls. If you follow the walkthrough for scenes, you will end up needing to hurt all the girls except the ones whose endings you're after. That's cold.
The alternative is ending their paths earlier, which in some cases, still leaves them hurt.
I would have much rather some other options, like... never starting a path to begin with, or a pure friend path. This is strongest with Stephani because especially with the abortion, it's clear she needs a friend, and someone who actually cares about her. And, as the most promiscuous character, I wasn't crazy about being with her, but I kind of wanted to be her friend. And if you turn her down at the end, you just hurt her anyhow!

4) Either eliminating minor characters, making their scenes optional, or expanding them into main choices.
Amber... no ending. Daphne, no ending. Saeki's friends... never seen again. Whywhore, no ending.
I mean, when you have the eventual option to fuck Daphne, you are told this puts you on her path. And... there is never any path.
End game, I couldn't finish until I slept with Whywhore, no option not to. Amber really served no purpose...
These characters could either have been expanded on or dropped.

5) Resolution. I feel a lot of plot points are dropped. What happened to Vanessa's father? If Saeki was pregnant, what ever happened to the baby, and if she kept it, even though she doesn't want you to be the father, do you at least stay her friend and be the baby's "Uncle?" What ever happened to that poor Natalie girl?
I feel the plot was sort of just dropped.

This game was decent. The girls were beautiful, and I appreciate that, no, you can't always get them all.
But for the sake of a happy ending to a porn game? Especially when your character goes from being the dick he was at the start of the game to who he was at the end? And with him genuinely caring for each girl he persued?
There could have been a lot of work put in to him finding a way to fix things with the girls, or, as I've gone on about, expand some of the harem possibilities.

I just feel like the developer decided her wanted to be done with this project, shit out a "good enough" ending, and is ready to move on. Which is disappointing.

Feels like a bad written episode of Beverly Hills 90210. The male characters are the biggest douchebags I've ever seen, they act like they just recently hit puberty. Had to stop at chapter 3 when my brain started to ran out of my ears because of all the stupid dialogues.

I also found the sandbox elements to be completely unnecessary. In my eyes, meaningless clicking around only to increase the playing time.

Two stars for the graphical effort.

Not a perfect game, but very good and deserves 5 stars.

First of: I loved this game!
I'm sad it's ending, I felt like it could have continued for a very long time still.
The endings is both satisfying and a bit sudden. Even though I think they could have made more of the ending it's still a 5 star game for me. The dev could have dragged this game out for another 10 episodes, I would have still loved the game.

Very glad it's not a harem ending, but love the few mini harem endings.

So in terms of quality:
Graphics: 8/10 Very very good, bit not the best I have seen
Characters 9/10 The girls had well defined and individual personalities
User interface 10/10 Very good user interface
Story: 7/10 Interesting plots, but not the strength of the game
No sound or Animation, but was not missed by me.

Negative: No pubic hair!!

I just enjoyed playing this game. Everything was just a pleasant experience.
Lot's of sex towards the end, plenty of build-up in the beginning. Lots of very pretty and interesting females.

The game had a great flow for me. Just loved every update to bits.

This game was never close to perfection. I clearly remember the emotions I dealt with after playing the first version. I did not like a lot of things about it... the asshole protagonist, the setup (Amsterdam pit fights, really?), and who remembers that absolutely atrocious 3D free-roam?
But there was something about this game I loved so much. Yes, the girls
I was sold right after the introduction of Lizzie. These character screens were such a genius move by @royalcandy. I mean, how can you drop this game after seeing Jeane in the lingerie? After that with each new version the game got better and better... until the developer lost his interest.
I'm glad that the game was completed and I can honestly say that this is one of my favorite games despite the flaws and rushed ending. I grew to like the protagonist, it was nice that we could make him a decent person in the end. The cast is one of the best I've seen so far. Stunning character models, and most girls (with a couple of exceptions) also have something to like about them personality wise. Humor is a good part of the game, even though some jokes are not to my liking, but they fit the story or the characters, so no problems for me.
To summarize, a decent game and a very good start. I hope that the developer learns from his mistakes and finds the passion for the next project. I'm sure he will gain a lot of new supporters if everything goes well.

Showed a lot of promise at first but first with the incest patch that was a total after thought that hasn't even been kept up or any real impact on anything to appeal to that audience and RoyalCandy losing interest lead to rushing to the end, half-hearted, final updates that are basically a series of more half-heartedly rendered "animated" and boring sex scenes made up of different positions that are like two frames each. I hope RC's passion returns for whatever the next project is.

Excellent models, honest render quality, game not too boring or getting in the way of sex scenes. No cheapshit tricks and there is really practically no teasing, I don't understand the criticism about the supposedly slow pace...this game goes way fast into sex, compared to the money scam projects other games are.

I hope Julia the blonde will get some action, but can't hope I guess for a true harem (FFFM), since mom and daughter sex is forbidden by the Patreon hypocrits.

The only criticism I would make, but which after all does not justify lowering this rating by a star, is :

1) Shoe posing. I hate it when those high heels bend with bare feet poses. I haven't dug into Daz3D myself enough to know how difficult it is to simply put the bloody foot back into a high heel pose, but it ruins pretty much the sex scenes which are otherwise nice to excellent, though with a lot of the usual Daz3D sex position presets.

2) The relationship with the mother. Better than nothing, but its obvious there was no more effort put into making it incest with a patch other than throwing in a couple of "moms" here and there in the dialogues. I fully understand the Patreon requirements (may they burn in hell), but it puts you off to have such a cool, detached, and relaxed relationship between both. You find out a woman is your true mom, and act as if those news were as mundane as finding out she was the one you crossed paths with 10 years ago while taking out the trash...wierd. The guy is tough as shit, he's bad ass, and a "bastard" in his own words, but a little more perverted feelings towards mommy, involving weakness, submission and emotional intimacy, especially during the fucking, would have been nice. Oh well, nothing is perfect, I know, I know...

I have really enjoyed playing this game. The girls are fantastically drawn. The story is quite easy to complete and some good options.

I like the mixture of girls. The only negative and that is a small one, is the sex scenes are not animated enough.

Over all it is a great game, and I am going to become a patreon

I can't wait for the next update.

I have absolutely enjoyed this Game
if you love incest i highly recommend it

Story+1 Sex scenes were not that rushed and the story was unique,And the dialogue's are not boring

Incest+1 its the icing on this visual novel(i thought its gonna be another stepshit(stepmom)

Character designs 1+ well done less repetive models

main character was not a pussy 1+ he was descisive on his actions

Developer +1 he delivered what he was supposed to do

Sex scene for mom was my favorite with different sex positions
ive have fallen for her

Support the Dev guys it will not be wasted

best game ever, but little bad is no animation, and developer said more patreon will make animation so i expect good game, more the no more secrets. so when this game finish, i hope asap new game release, a little chill

Great story, amazing sex scenes, beautiful characters...great job by all involved! Can't wait for the update. Please don't keep us waiting too long for the Prom! The Lizzie/Vanessa scene was incredible

A sweet story about 'Love, Lust , and Secret' in all its forms - for a relationship, friendship, parenthood, and how far the MC wants to go to find his true self.

The storytelling isn't as tight as it could be and it isn't very ambitious, and I can't say I felt much emotional investment, especially in the last couple of episodes. But it has enough laughs, heart, and a pleasant "story of lust" with the MC's surrounding.

Let's see how the story goes! I feel something more interesting will come and surprise us!

This game is one of the few ones which I love and one of my favorites.It has a nice captivating story with plenty of humor.The characters themselves are intriguing too,some more than others,but I guess than depends on the personal taste.
Although it lacks animation,it compensates with the rest such as story,characters and vibe.
Wonderful game overall.Keep going,dev.

Such a great game. Great writing. Compelling interpersonal drama. Amazing art, especially in depictions of the ladies. I'm amazed by the quantity of content and frequent choices you can make.

Only criticism (but still give 5 stars) is there is no animation. These characters and images beg for animation.

This is most definitely one of the best games I've played on this site; it has a lot of options, renders are pretty good and characters are awesome and don't seem "recycled". I especially liked the fact that the dev let us pick all choices during the game night.

Going to start with the good on this one.

The models are great, each is quite unique in looks and not too over the top, they could be real people.

A great assortment of characters, most games are very limited in characters but you have a whole group inside and outside of school to work with and even some guys to interact with both good and bad.

No errors in the main game althrough i couldnt get the patch to work but thats nothing to do with the developer.

There is a good amount of content so far and its still got lots to go from what i can tell of the main story.


Now for the bad.

The game is incredibly slow paced,
While the models are nice in looks i found them to be very sterotypical in attitude and thus quite predictable.

Apart from the choices that let you view a certain scene(like do you want to drive person home or not, giving you opportunity for a scene) all the other choices dont seem to do anything, i treated every character like garbage and as long as i picked the scene choice i still got the scene.

The biggest problem for the game through has to be the unneeded open world style, the game is linear you cannot move on to the next scene without doing eveything in set order so why let people click around with nothing to do?
Sometimes it wont even tell you what to do next so you have to click on everything in every room until you find that little something you missed to get the story going.

A sweet and fun school life but...

=== Chara Design :
The models are quite nice, nothing exceptionnal though, but attractive enough to get hooked. The girls personality are sometimes realistic...sometimes nuts...Anyway you will surely find one you like.
The relationship building is pretty nice but feels rushed at the end

=== Background/Story :
Eventhough the writing is good, I can't really say that the story is great, in fact it is the relationship about the different girls and guys that made the story. It has fun and nostalgic moments, especially on the first episodes, on the last ones, again it seems rushed for some reason.

=== Sex/Animations :
Well, not great. You get only renders until chap 6 or 7, then you get 2 renders animations... however a lot of positions, a lot of scenes, (maybe too much on last chapters) sometimes it is a bit sexy... but it is still hard to get really immersed into those.

=== Gameplay/Contents :
The contents are huge. Especially if you keep all the routes open.
However that is also a problem, how can you keep 10 relations open at the same time and have no problem ? Also if you don't have walkthrough, you can lose a lot of time looking what to do next, as most of the times, there is only one thing to do, so why making us search the entire school, or the entire house to continue the story...
Either keep that kind of gameplay, with more different choices possibles.
Either you make navigation simplier as there is only one road anyway with just events that you chose to skip/close or not.

Overall, the game is good and got me hooked, but there are things to improve to be a really great game.

After reading all the positive reviews, I was so hyped. ugh...man, I think I downloaded the wrong game. Story is incredibly sloggish and slow, writing is hit or miss, but mostly miss...characters are cliche and boring, the models look like OC/90210 rejects...the entire game was just...tedious. Go here, talk to X, go here and talk to x, go to the classroom, do this, talk to X. I mean, what sort of teenager goes to Amsterdam, blows $3k of stolen money and then decides to commit armed robbery...while his principal comes to the rescue with no consequences to the MC? Bleh...there are far better written, rendered and coded games here. Give this a hard pass.

A great story with lots of girls to please all palettes. Covers most tropes and does it without feeling overbearing. Graphically all the girls are gorgeous.

Development has also been one of the more reliable games I have supported.

Only negative is that most decisions mean nothing as you pretty much can have every girl and you basically can't fail.
