VN - Ren'Py - Our Red String [Ch. 12 Full] [Eva Kiss]

Loving everything this author does - early stages in this game but already looking so promising. At first I wasn't sure about the dual protagonists, but I think after the redo of the first chapter it's on a really balance level now. The biggest thing I hate about this game is waiting for a new release! At least she is quite regular and prompt with updates - looking forward to the next!

Review based on v 0.2. The problem, that the previous game had, has been solved in new game. The quality of the art has grown impressively. Multiple characters. New "rpg based" game mechanics looks good. Same interesting topics about: work, adult life, sport, relationship and love. 5 stars as an advance

after the great success of good girl gone bad I started with very high expectations and I am really happy to be able to say that, for the moment, they seem satisfied. compared to the first chapter, the technical sector has improved a lot. the touch of eva kiss is recognized in the drawings and in its ability to capture human emotions, but all with a renewed and improved graphic design. the idea of dividing the story with two different focuses is brilliant, because it allows you to experience the adventure from all points of view. the plot, as in the previous chapter, is fundamental, for the moment well written and will certainly be well developed, given the bases set. the plot seems to be able to assume enormous proportions and the ramifications of the plot due to the choices seem to be dozens and dozens, even more than in gggb. surely this is an ambitious project, which I hope the developer can carry out with the perseverance and commitment shown so far, with full-bodied monthly updates as it has always been. something is still missing to give the maximum, because it is a game just started, but I can not give less than 4 stars, by virtue of the aforementioned. I hope not to be disappointed and I thank developer and admin for adding it to the catalog.

DIsappointing, after the promise of the first chapter I found the new chapter to be a real disappointment. It seems the Dev is setting up the female protagonist to have multiple men vying for her attention, yet the male protagonist tries to hook up with the girl he's known since high school and he can't get it up. She is the one other girl who has expressed any interest in him and he had to compete against another friend for her attentions. I know that often in real life attractive men don't get as much attention as attractive women but the fact that he ends up with ED the first time that he attempts sex with someone is ridiculous. The rest of the game is a real slow burn, real slow burn.

Pros: Well done art, even though 2D, okay story

Cons: Okay story, no fappable material, uninspiring characters.

After playing through .2 its pretty clear that EvaKiss is going to do it again. Eva Kiss has been in my opinion the most impressive creator on patreon giving consistent and satisfying updates on a schedule that is like clockwork. The writing is effective and engaging the art is clean and erotic from the top down everything about EvaKiss screams professionalism and talent and i look forward to anything that has their name on it. A word of warning for people jumping in for the first time There are tons of routes and when that happens your favorite route may not get updated i imagine this problem is going to be exaserbated because ORS has multiple protagonists. Have patience and know that when its your turn to get what you want it will be done to a level of quality that only evakiss can provide.

Eva went from creating crazy, unexpected and exciting situations with GGGB to this: a generic pornhub scene generato. Pretty much every character is a young top model, every scenes and relationships are boring and predictable.

I don't like the dicision of going with 2 main characters either, Ian is unnecessary.

The visuals and overall production is great, but gadamn this is as boring as it can get. Not even gonna talk about the fact that updates take ages to come and there is some constant back and forth rewriting characters for no reason such as Stan.

Really enjoy the game as a whole. The story and setting bring it all together really well along with the choices that actually make a difference! I've got high hopes that this game keeps on going strong with updates!

review for the 0.1 , I will update my note as the game is developed


well ... disappointed ...

for the good point :

the art is good
some reference to GGGB like the porn video , hi Ashley , too bad she is not in bimbo mode
aaaaaand that's all ( game in early development , no much to say about it right now )

now for the bad point :...

first , two character is not a good idea , or at least let us chose which one we want to play but don't force us to play both
the last game was re-playable many time so if you let us chose we can replay a lot of time and explore each character

the character are not very interesting right now , I know it's just the beginning , but in GGGB the character were far more interesting at the beginning
right now , the majority are just ... meh ... , and some of them are fucking annoying like the roommate friend of the male MC , he is just a idiot and every time he speak he make me want to punch him with his fucking s-s-s-stutter
and the male roommate of the female mc ( yeah I don't retain the name right now ) is fucking ugly , I know it's the cliché of the fat ugly nerd but right here its too much and more disappointing , he don't act like a total perv or a total sub at the boot of the female mc

and the sexual content , the most disappointing part , 1 hour in game a no fucking sex scene , just a dick , some tits and that's all ...
seriously , in GGGB in the first 15 min I already had fucked 3 different person ( or at least , had the choice to do it )
why the male mc can't try to seduce every girl he met at the beginning ?
why the female mc can't act like a total slut at the beginning ?
so much sexual opportunity missed in this story ..
I WANT CHOICES , I just want real choices , and here I just got choices that influence obscure stat ..

I hope the future update won't just continue the story but also add content to the already existing story

but right now I'm afraid this game will not be half as good as the first one , who was on my top 3 of the best porn game I've played ( and I played a lot of game )
seriously I've played GGGB 20 time and I'm still discovering new things , so it will be hard to beat

Both sides now


After the excellent Good Girl Gone Bad with its numerous choices and possible routes I had high hopes for Our Red String - and I haven't been disappointed so far.


The good

• Gorgeous illustrations (I was reserved at first when I saw previews of the new char design with its saturated shading, but in combination with the beautiful, colourful backdrops it looks just right).
• Nice selection of music
• Both male and female MC PoV (= innovative game design)
• Interesting, realistic and relatable characters
• Decent writing (proper English, slice-of-life dialogue & story)
• Tons of (sometimes even branched) choices with meaningful consequences
• Beautiful UI (smartphone)
• Slim & stylish text box with excellent readability
• A pinch of RPG atmosphere thanks to the stats system
• Lola (too bad she didn't turn out to be the MC as "promised" ).

The improvable

• Lena not recognising Ian when they meet again (remastered intro) seems weird.
• Some anatomic details (especially concealed breasts) look off.
• Stat requirements to unlock certain conversation options are sometimes too strict.
• Annoying 4th wall breaking "acid trip" scene which felt completely out of place.
• Lena's awful looking ahegao faces.
• Minor bugs (at times display of wrong names when someone is talking).
• (Very few) typos
• Compared to GGGB saving / loading has become less convenient.

Eva Kiss strikes again - no other adult content creator manages to deliver such a perfect blend of art, music, characters, writing, choices and user interface.
Our Red String is one of my favourite adult VNs right now, highly recommended.

Excellent so far, and far better than I expected.

Pros (+) and cons (-)

+ Great artstyle. Absolutely love it! I personally think we need more of these beautiful 2D games instead of the uncanny valley 3D models (yuck) that everyone's been using. This game's characters are beautifully drawn.
+ Very interesting slice-of-life story line. Not too stereotypical, not too try-hard. Just enough for it to be a relatable.
+ Very believable characters that don't fill the tropes. They have diverse personalities. For example, one character seems like a "mean girl" at first glance, but she's actually very friendly. One is good with women, yet he is not your stereotypical superstar hunk. Another one is full of potential, but not really interested in pursuing them. Their struggles are very relatable. Not everyone is super successful, but not everyone is down in the drains also.

- So far? Not really. I mean I'm struggling to think of any cons as I'm typing this. Uh, no sex scenes so far I guess (alpha version)?

The game has an interesting storyline. The characters are drawn, beautiful and have their own character. This gives the game an atmosphere. The way the character develops also defines the appropriate episodes he or she can go through.

I usually don´t play alpha versions of games. Too much games get just an alpha, or at most two-tre updates and get abandoned.

But seeing who the autor is, and having enjoyed his previous game GGGB, I decided to make an exception.

As far as the game has gone it promises to be better that GGGB. A lot better.

The graphics are better.
Writings and dialogues are better also.
The support cast has more deep and personality


And the mechanic of two MC, playing first one and then with the other,with the choices that you have made with the first one fixed, its something new and innovative that opens a lot of interesting options in narrative, in play and in game enjoyment.

So 5*. Thats it´s.

Another standout game from this dev.
There's a lot there for a 0.1, but no sex scenes yet, that I found.
Well written story, with choices that matter. Complex with many interweaving branches. The plot has depth but still allows for a lot of variation.
The art work is good, and consistent.
It is very stable, and bug-free for an Alpha.

It's a good start. The coding is nicely done, and the art has improved a little bit over the last game. I like how you shift protagonists and then replay the previous days with your original choices happening in sync. That is a unique and good idea.

EvaKiss has knocked another one out of the park. With less than a year of development under its belt, Our Red String is far and away my most anticipated game for updates.

The quality of the art is phenomenal, and the sex scenes are incredibly hot. It's one of the few games around where your actions actually influence events -- with the advent of Chapter 7, a choice made in Chapter 1 suddenly comes to roost. And that's not the first time that's happened. Further, there's actual game mechanics influenced by organic stats that don't feel grindy, lock and open paths through the story, and allow you to truly customize your versions of the characters.

No mindless clicking on things or around a map, finding the right interaction. The characters feel real and their reasoning and actions feel inspired and human. What else could you want?

I find myself going back to the beginning and starting a new run multiple times with each chapter and figuring out exactly what my 'canon' version is.

I cannot wait for the completion of this project, which is estimated to be 20+ chapters. And with how much I love 1/3 of that number, I can only imagine what the end product will be.

ORS is truly something above and beyond 99.9% of the games that are on the site.

For a 0.1 version this game has a lot of content, and is incredibly well made. Eva delivers, and oh boy, it's even better than I expected.

Graphics: Easy 5/5, characters are nicely drawn, shading looks amazing, backgrounds are detailed, UI and Menu presents itself really good.

Characters: Characters are pretty diversely looking, have distinct personalities, and most importantly are (so far)well written and seem believable. Both Ian and Lena are pretty relatable (at least for me). Also, holy shit, Ivy is so fucking hot, easily my favorite so far. 5/5 for me for the time being.

Gameplay: I like the introduction of more expanded stats system, instead of the generic 'blue point good', 'red point bad' that we got in GGGB. Two playable characters and lots of choices so far. 5/5 gameplay as far as VNs go.

Music: I think it's the same generic stock music that was present in GGGB, but it doesn't sound bad to me. 3,5/5.

Fappability: Not much erotic content so far, but the photo session images were pretty nice. 3,5/5 slightly above average fap so far.

I'm giving 5/5 starts as a credit of trust, because Eva hasn't let me down with the GGGB, and ORS has a lot higher production quality.

Sorry for any mistakes, my English is not that good.

First of all game looks beautiful it is really something else I have ever seen before. It is realistic but also keep artwork stlye as well. There is two protagonist and they are in the same story so it is also something fresh. Fun you can influence the story more this way and you can see characters from other viewpoints. Characters are extremely good finally not teenagers. They are young adults and more or less adults. I found a lot of similarities with real life friends with life problems and the way they are act. Writing style is really good there are some typo-s but people make mistakes it is ok and easy to fix it. Point system and relationship o meter looks promising only thing I don't understand why the two protagonist share the same stats. In overall game has a great feel good atmosphere it is a really top class work.

Lots of potential with this one and I have no doubt it has a bright future ahead of itself.

There are many engaging characters that we meet and it is interesting seeing the game from the perspective of two characters. There is a female MC and male MC so it has the best of both worlds. I think this game is one that everyone can enjoy. There are also stats you can level up adding yet another level of depth. For a 0.1 there was far more content than I expected. Give this one a try.
