    The story was fantastic! It was sexy but heartfelt. The writing was gripping, funny, and moving. The characters are all unique and compelling. They really drive the story. Not to mention how good they look. It was an instant favorite and an easy 10/10

    For a game that sits at a near perfect rating with as many reviews as this one has, there were pretty high expectations.

    For me this game delivers big tim on those expectations. It's a game was made with a lot of love and care. A game that made me laugh many times because of some of the situations and gags that happened in it, but also a very good sotry for me at least.

    It strikes the right balance somehow. I can't really explain it.
    I highly recommend it with the knowledge that in my opinion this is a very harem centric game. I used the mod to make sure to get all the scenes and I really don't regret it. Maybe that isn't for everyone, but it was for me .

    Don't want to say too much but this game checks all the boxes for me.

    Great animations (Especially for a VN0
    Great Story
    Likable Characters (Main and side characters)
    Just very high production value

    My objective in writing this review is to add my name to the list of fans and say that I'm glad to finally have experienced this game. This is an instance where the number of positive reviews are more than justified. No overhyping IMO.

    this review might (will) contain minor spoilers about every aspect of the game, since i couldn't figure out how to use the spoiler button. it just doesn't work i swear


    you know what guys, i feel like i've experienced this story at least 5 times already. one bad satanic villain trying to take over the world, mc's relation with the villain and him trying to figure out the evil power behind everything, his step-mom/sis relationships, how every single girl drools over him, predictable "twists". i mean should i go on? the game has every single cliché a porn game can have and it doesn't really try to do anything different, not in the slightest.

    the thing is, that doesn't necessarily mean it's a bad game. it somehow manages to keep you going with its characters. again, the story didn't do it for me, i've already seen it in tens of other games, the characters however, most of them were quite cute. creating my own harem full of hot chicks from all over the globe (including our step-mom, school teacher, a ninja girl that was assigned to literally kill us, a brat rich girl that didn't like us at first) was quite fun. sex scenes were alright. quite hot actually at times, but the thrill of keeping the sex secret from everyone else at the beginning (aka cheating i guess. would you look at that, i have a cheating kink!!) was better than having three/foursome with them later on. it also felt like mc's relationships with girls progressed way too fast to the point it was simply too unrealistic for my liking. considering this is not supposed to be a realistic vn, it wasn't that bad. although it could've been way more engaging with better written build-ups

    the others (mostly other dudes in the game) were really fun. the silly faces and zoom-ins when there was something absurd would happen were a nice touch and always had me laughing. i loved the absurdity of stabby mike's character development and how he was involved in this story. tom and his sudden "change", fat jack becoming an absolute thot denying ripped alpha, oh and of course everyone's favourite local drug dealer hiromi. i don't know about you horny individuals but they were the real star of the show for me. the game wouldn't be as good without them that's for sure

    oh well, it was a fun experience despite everything. i don't regret spending my time on this game. hoping to see improved character development & overall writing from the devs current game "eternum". check it out guys they say it's decent

    First of all i want to say that i came from their other game eternum and since i got hooked up with it why not try their other game? Turns out it was the best decision of my life. (btw if you hadnt play eternum do so, it was worth even with its incomplete versions)

    For the game it was amazing, from story, building up, personalities, the flow, the humor/seriousness, and porn (i think i even skipped the"plot" for the plot at some point). If you are seeing this review on whether it is worth your time i would recommend 5/7 of a perfect score.


    Final note for me since I finshed both games as of this time with ver 2.0 of eternum, I am agreeing with the direction of the developer (that i think that both games is connected?) and in the future this will be confirmed. Again play it and donate to the developer if you have the capacity to do so.

    I enjoyed every minute of playing this game. The game knows what it wants to be and that's a fun and entertaining ride that doesn't take itself too seriously but also never disrespects the audience by not giving a fulfilling story with a solid beginning, middle, and most importantly end. I liked the style of art too, for me that's never the most important thing but maybe you're not crazy about the renders and models, don't let that deter you though, the art style fits the game. If you're on the fence about this one, just give it a go, you'll have a good time.

    Man, what a ride...
    Couldn't stop binging this game once I started it, the porn was just a plus at some point.
    Does it have flaws? Sure, but it's easily ignored in favor of all the excitement and the laughs it brings!

    Thank you so much Caribdis and all who aided to bring life to this gem.


    PS: Stabby for president!

    This is a very beautiful game that i have ever played! Really love the story, humour, the characters and their personality and relationships , scenes are hot, the sound and music are perfect, also the ending is so beautiful that make me go rate 5 star this right after finished it. But what make me love this game most is our precious MC. Thank for making me this happy at night lol :). Looking forward to Etenum. "This is just the beginning ."

    It's just porn. It has pretenses of being a proper story, but it's just porn. The MC makes mind-numbingly terrible decisions that... lead to sex. The female leads make ridiculous leaps of logic that... lead to sex. Characters generally consistently make ridiculous decisions that loop back around to finding ways to have sex with the MC, regardless of their prior relationships or how it might affect them in the future.
    Sex happens quickly and without consequence. Within thirty minutes of play your sister can be convinced to give you a handjob and a blowjob and both times the MC's reaction is something along the lines of "Whew, that felt great! Well, I best be going now!" And that's it. There's no fallout, no shock or sudden clinginess, no disgust or anger or even doubt. These characters are cardboard facsimiles of actual people and as a result there is no real story.
    But hey, that's okay. This isn't Borders, this is F95. We're here for porn. Well, what's here is meh. It's not bad. It's not great. Sex is quick and done with. There's no real build up or danger, so it comes down to the visuals to carry the engagement. Unfortunately I don't think they can carry Once in a Lifetime far. The character models look great, but I personally find HS male models to be quite ghoulish. The animation is smooth and appealing, but short.

    As for gameplay, don't bother; it's standard VN fare. If you really get into the models for the girls just pick up the walkthrough mod and mindlessly work your way through it. The puzzles and trivia games are either very simple or completely random.

    2/5. The story premise would be interesting, but it's a backdrop for poorly written characters. Gameplay is nonexistent. Visuals are adequate.

    The best written game I've played here so far.
    Perfect balance of humour, sex and storyline.
    It nearly bridges the gap between a porn game and a normal video game. It's both good for porn and just story-driven entertainment.

    It checks all the boxes (for me at least)

    Harem ending -> check
    Incest (step-bro style) -> check
    milfs -> check
    Super sweet vanilla -> VERY check
    Great story and great humor? -> check

    Definitely looking forward to this author's future work

    Only con I can think of is that while the ending does have a pretty good montage of the epilogue, I would have wanted more (if you finished the game you know what I mean)

    Simply, an Amazing game. It has good humour, erotic scenes, plot ,characters and much more. Special points for stabby mike ofcourse. Certainly looking forward to Eternum since this game has certainly raised my expectations for this developer but I'm certain that the dev will live upto the expectations. Dev, If you are reading this, Good luck on your future endeavours.

    This game is quite possibly my favourite and is an absolute joy to play. It hits all the right notes in terms of story, characters, pacing, humour, and of course the 'scenes'.
    Also great when one of these games also progresses at a decent/consistent rate and gets finished!
    My only possible criticism is perhaps the illusion of choice. In my opinion it seems the branching paths are (for the most part) basically just getting the right or wrong answers.. so you may as well just play with a walk through. But honestly i would rather a well polished linear game anyway.

    This game has many things other porn games simply don't offer that make me appreciate it massively. The story and humor are both top notch. Made me laugh out loud on multiple occasions and I also looked forward to every session purely to see where the story would go. I also appreciated the sound design both in the later animated sex scenes but also just in general. My only gripe is the lack of content at the very end, I would like to have played and had a few scenes when all the characters were just relaxing and the conflict died down. Nevertheless Eternum looks extremely promising as well and Caribdis is an S-tier developer with an obvious passion.

    Only 3/5 regarding the fapability, but the story, the cut and the dialogues are more hilarious than anything I've ever seen in the XXX sector. Completely over the top. I would even play this game if it didn't have any nude scenes in it.

    Amazing VN. Great characters, great storyline, great humour and the girls are fantastic. As others have said, all the male characters resemble goblins and what not, but hey, i doubt the target audience cares much for that...

    Truly an incredible game. There are some spelling and grammar errors throughout the whole game, but they never take away from the experience. The best comedy writing in the entire VN genre, hands down, I have never laughed as hard nor as much as when I played this game. The jokes and comedy bits never come at a detriment to the story but all happen naturally and fit perfectly. The characters are all very well written, kind of wish Carla got more screen time but it's a busy line up so it's okay. Animations and renders are all great and characters faces are very expressive, not to mention sometimes there's jokes in the background of some scenes. There's not really much more I can add, except play this game and thank you to Caribdis.

    10/10 game, some of the best writing of any game on this site. Great humor, character development, and story. Had me genuinely interested in the game beyond the tits. Not to mention it's actually completed, which has become so rare for games these days.

    i think this game is pretty overrated but i will say what i like about the game first
    the girls i love them i love how judie and lauren look like a twin and i love how the other girls look too
    i love the story its a great one which is rare
    and the humor which is usually a turn off for me in porn games since the talking was too much anyway i found the humor really amusing the best of any game i played so far
    i love the blush on most of the girls
    i love the scenes even though i played a game recently with the same art style that i could have sworn was extracted from some where else and i could swear this game is the same but i am not art expert but this game does have better looking art than the other game i played
    what i dont like is that i have to play or read for 30 minutes before getting to a sex scene most of the time
    the tits on all the girls in the game old and young where pretty much the same with very slight change which was really annoying you expect to see different tits but when the big reveal comes around they are all exactly the same shape with just different nipples color or complexion color and even the nipples all looked the same
    and the endings what the fuck was that the shittiest endings of any game i ever played hands down no work was put into making decent endings at all
    the scenes where so hot though i have to admit they kept me coming for more
    and i liked when you go faster in the scene it usually gives you a new look at the scene and the girls expressions change
    anyway the game is definitly worth playing but 4.5/5 no i dont think so
