    This game is, hands-down, one of THE best ones on the site.

    Every character has a well-defined motivation for wanting to be involved in the club (including your own, which you can influence to an extent) and putting up with the games, the majority of them have some aspect worth sympathizing with, and the creativity on display is just phenomenal!

    Like the game and the characters and it looks like your decisions are impactful on your development. The pacing is very good, nothing to grind and every conversation is somewhat interesting. Currently the game version is Ch. 3 Update 4 and I would love to see the rest of the story.

    When i first started playing this game, the character designs intrigued me so much. The sex animations also were very good. The game for me was going well upto the point till the first competetion second contest happened, where the red head gym girl was forced to disgusting things and drink cum.

    At that point I realised, " So it was this type of game, a game where the women involved will be broken down to the point where by the end, they won't even remember the reason they came into the competition.

    A game where Old rich powerful men will always win without reprecussions. We already have old rich powerful men winnining in real life, doing whatever they want and getting away with it. I don't have to watch them winning in a fucking porn game as well.

    Then this game got a love hate relationship with me, I wanted to play but knowing the game will push the narratives I hate from the core of my heart, I couldn't play.

    Ultimately after I tried again, the previous save game completely crashed and gave a traceback error and the game sent me to the start of the game. I realised thaat somehow by fate musing, I am unable to play the game and I finally lost any interest in this game.

    A really satisfying game to play, you quickly get involved with the main character and the other characters are all endearing in their own ways.
    The game is deep and lasts a long time without getting bored for a second.
    A multiple choice that forces us to think about what we want to get from this game with several different fines the game is able to transmit emotions what makes it unique in its kind!
    Well done!

    I'll just say it straight that I'm biased and that when I saw a signature gif of Hana I just fell in love then I saw Mina and I also fell in love. I played through the game with the help of the walkthroughs and man were the scenes worth it. If I had to say at the time of typing this if I had to complain about something it's that those 2 best girls I've mentioned haven't had any actual intercourse scenes yet. I guess that can easily be remedied through future updates 'cause I can see that there's something getting set up for the plot to unwind. Spoiler alert being Hana's choice of share/ownership of August and Mina's wild bucketlist. I'm not gonna lie though for some reason I ain't that fond of the 3 "carnations" being Rosalind, Veronica, and Felicia I guess it's ultimately up to taste but honestly everything was amazing from the writing, the crazy plot and how things connect with choices and perks which add some replayability to it 5 stars since I rarely review or maybe even never haha. ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS VN I REALLY WANT MORE AND HOPE DEVS GET ALL THE SUPPORT THEY GET on an unrelated note the Mina arcade part really reminded me of A House in the Rift another Renpy VN I recommend!

    Last I played this game was back when it was just the prologue and all I can remember about my feelings back then were the amazing writing and beautiful characters. I remember it leaving a strong impression on me then. Fast forward to now, with the Ch3Update4 patch, I'm finally able to catch up on all I've missed these past few years since, and boy this game is even better than I imagined!

    One of the greatest aspects of this game IMO would be its writing. The writing of this game is amazing as the story has an intriguing premise found in the overview, and as I played more into the story I was always engaged with what the next major story arc would entail. Plot aside, the decisions you make as our MC affect not only major scenes in the story, but also affect even the little details such as dialogue lines; I really like little details like that. TD, the writer dev, really has developed an amazing story to be told to the point I think it’s easy to become more invested in the plot and character relationships than the sex. And the sex scenes in the are amazing, beautiful and eye catching, so that’s quite a feat haha.

    Onto the cast of PC, I love them so much. They are so full of character and depth, and I loved moments in the game where they really get to showcase their personality and motivations. Seeing the characters, both main characters and side characters, emote and be animated throughout the story is beautiful. The characters are well developed, both physically and story wise, with complex back stories that we explore as the story progresses. Aside from major plot events in the story, I personally love moments outside the major events; moments such as when the MC and a heroine are alone and sharing a moment together. The MC is also a thought-out character with his own set of values and ethics, both of which are challenged in the story. Throughout the game, alongside the decisions you make, we get to hear his inner thoughts giving insight to his actions in the story. This makes him feel like a fully developed character in his own right, and I love seeing his perspective of the events alongside our decisions. It feels refreshing having an MC like this.

    The visuals of this game are bound to leave you awestruck! GIL, the art dev, from what I’ve seen in this game and heard from others, has really created some of the best-looking characters and animations I’ve ever seen. As I’ve stated before, seeing the character express themselves not only in their writing, but also their facial emotes and animations really help bring the characters to life. Each character has their own distinct style and I love seeing the various characters in different outfits. Of course, these praises also go to the sexual content of the game as well. Beautiful visuals, smooth animations, and the high level of detail make the girls and their scenes an absolute show to watch.

    I guess to end this off, this game is such a masterpiece at the moment, and I cannot wait for the later updates until its complete. I wish we could go above and beyond 5 stars, cuz this truly is an experience that deserves it.

    Insanely well-written and entertaining. Down-to-earth pragmatic plot that took me for a ride. All female leads are captivating and gorgeous art. Did not have Patreon prior to playing this game and now I'm a gold patron. What a surprising find when trying to extinguish some carnal fires.

    Ended up almost populating all of the first 9 pages of save slots for each fork in the proverbial road for the story. Not even close to being a 100% completion gamer here but I feel like each character is so well-written that I found myself exploring each branch of conversation just to find out more.

    Shoutout to the devs, writers and artists for a fantastic experience and cannot WAIT for future updates :)

    There are plenty of horny idiots on this site who'll give a 5 star review to anything which doesn't crash and has art they can get off to, when more accurately few deserve even 3 stars. So listen when I say that this is a 5 star game through and through, perhaps the only one on this site.

    From the outset clever world-building sets off a story where believable characters can engage in a wide range of erotic activities that are far from vanilla, all while the main character can avoid being a creepy manipulative asshole (if you choose that path, there are other options).

    The renders are gorgeous for the most part (stock honey-select protaganist does make an appearance though this feels more like memeing rather than oversight), the story and characters are engaging and believable, a wide range of fetishes are explored, there's no grinding or stupid fetch quests. The only negative I could really bring up is that this game is not for people who like vanilla and some content will push boundaries for those who are only a little past vanilla.

    Really good game if you are into male dom. Characters are well written and the artwork in top notch.

    I didn't know honey select could look this good.

    The stroy is very engaging, and paced well. You would be hard pressed to find better dialogues in again of the games I've played of this kind.

    There is some extreme content in this game, so if that's not your thing, then stear clear, if you like a full one fetish game with a very good story this one's for you.

    I don't even know where to start, this game is special and surely one of if not the best on F95. This is the actually first time I'm reviewing a game here even if i've played plenty and this is the only one that pushed me to do it. It's great all around: characters, story, setting, animations, writing, sex scenes, girls,face expressions, choices impact and so on. The very thing that stands out here is the writing as it makes everything even more appealing and enjoyable. I definitely recommend you to try.
    Keep up the good work devs.

    I played Ch. 3 Update 3 shortly before Ch. 3 Update 4 was released. I replayed from the start just to get to enjoy this masterpiece again. I've held off on a review, needing time to find something critical to write as counterbalance to my exuberance for this project. I've enjoyed quite a few adult games and visual novels, probably a few dozen. Maybe I haven't played enough or the right ones, because I've never read or played anything that can be compared with this VN. The TLDR is that Pale Carnations is stunning, both visually and literarily. You're doing yourself a disservice if you ignore this gem.
    That said, I'll offer some warnings to less flexible or more sensitive readers out there. If you're looking for either a light bdsm thrill or an uncomplicated love story, this won't scratch those itches. If your goal is for MC to accrue a harem of adoring sex slaves, it isn't in the game yet, and I'd be surprised if that's where it's headed. If you want an open world to expore and choose your own path, let me remind you that this is a visual novel. If you have need of a protagonist white knight fighting every perceived injustice on behalf of all women everywhere, this isn't that. Basically, the protagonist is a good guy, but, like a real person, he has less-than-altruistic desires and urges occasionally influencing his impulse control. There is content featuring prostitution, humiliation, degradation, misogyny, abuse of power, and more, and a quite a bit of it pretty unavoidable. You'll play as a character committing, contributing to, or allowing several of these acts. You can influence several scenes to some extent, but there isn't a monogamy & missionary-only mode for this game. You'll be faced with behaving cordially, sometimes friendly, with many of the worst perpetrators. A core concept in the game is people choosing to behave outside their sexual comfort zone, motivated to do so by rich elites for their own perverse entertainment. If that's how you define rape and that outrages you, just move on. Really, all the squicky elements are well handled, and it's all disclosed in the tags.
    The writing:
    The first thing to note is the writing is immaculate. You'll never be distracted by poor grammar, sentence structure, spelling, or word choice. The only exceptions I noticed are two forgivable uses of "conscientious" when I believe "self-conscious" was the more appropriate word choice. On that note, the vocabulary isn't childish, but nor is it complicated or pretentious. The skillful execution of the technicalities of good writing allows one to focus on the narrative, and oh man is this a compelling story. The plot, briefly put, centers around a young man who is convinced to accept employment at a high-end brothel/sex club for the powerful and wealthy. This premise is not just a vehicle for a slide-show of fetishes and kinky sex, though there is plenty of that. The premise is, like all AVNs, a vehicle to introduce the MC to hot chicks, but more uniquely, an opportunity for us to view and somewhat influence the main character's navigation of the disparity between his base compulsions and his ethical principles in the face of a intense temptation and the context of a sympathetic backstory. His character is troubled by his actions, his compulsions, and the situations of those around him whom he cares for. Which brings me to the second way that Pale Carnations rises above the standard. These characters aren't simple avatars of clichéd tropes. The psychology, history, and motivations of most characters is explored or reflected on. Because they are written as real people with realistic emotions and needs, they are likeable in a way that porn games don't usually achieve. Their backstories are fully developed, and their personalities are both believable and consistent. There are breaks from character that might be surprising, but never preposterously so, never more than one sees in the real world. Given the unusual and trying circumstances that give rise to these character breaks, they feel organic and natural: character growth. The most notable and most important character that is developed is the protagonist, the player character. In Pale Carnations, the main character isn't a faceless cardboard cut-out for the player to puppet through their own fantasies. While the player is given some options on how the MC can act, the internal monologue is written in first-person. The MC is his own fully-developed character, not an nebulous stand-in for you. His emotionally intelligent deliberation on psychology and ethics never feels overbearing. Rather, it is artfully juxtaposed with clever dialogue and rich storytelling. The descriptions of places, things, actions, and people are gripping and always tonally consistent. Dialogue is so very well delivered. No word feels unnatural, except where intended. Reactions and replies make sense, conveying believable emotion. There's plenty of witty retorts and humorous observations. Using renpy to add comedic (and dramatic) timing to conversations is far above and beyond what one expects from visual novels. My favorite examples of this are most dialogues with Hana, especially a scene where she sits on MC's chest and they discuss their days, of which I'd love to share more but won't spoil for new readers. All said, I wouldn't be surprised if TD (author of PC) has professional experience writing fiction in some other capacity or medium.
    The visuals:
    The visual assets are gorgeous, just abso-fucking-lutely beautiful. I'm not just talking about the women, who are all stunning, but every scene visually ranges from superb to breathtaking. The attention to detail is amazing. There are reflections, material textures, skin textures, moles, freckles, wrinkles, proper consideration to physics, consistent and logical light sources, and depth of field. There's even hair stubble, and food looks like food rather than a six-year-old's scrawl. The faces are expressive, matching the emotion that's described in the text. The color palettes are deeply satisfying and add to the tone of the scenes. The visual perfectionism is such that it stood out to me that Harper's hair isn't obeying gravity during the dunking scene. That's all I'm able to come up with. That's how far I'm reaching. I'm nitpicking this minutiae in order to find any fault with the artwork. The animations are spectacular, smooth and seamlessly looped. They're every bit at good as the stills. In fact, the animations seem to be even more detailed and intricately perfected than the stills. Gil should offer classes on how to make Illusion look this beautiful. I've never seen it look even half as good as this.
    The audio:
    Music is a bit less important for me than the first two categories, but my expectations were again exceeded. The soundtrack is great. Once again, the tone and mood of the audio are skillfully matched to the scenes. There are: ominous, unsettling, tension-building tracks; uplifting, victorious tracks; chill jazz grooves; upbeat, happy melodies; wistful, melancholic tunes; potent, raw rock riffs. Every one of them enhances the experience of the scenes they're supporting.

    Five or even ten stars isn't enough for this game. It gets all the stars.

    Just finished Chapter 3 Update 4, and I have to be honest, this is the only game that I genuinely regret playing.
    Everything else on this site feels bland in comparison now, any of the female characters could be the protagonist of the female lead of their own story yet here they are optional paths.
    The writing is fantastic, the writer manages to humanize sex workers while also demonstrating how they are exploited by the industry.

    I look forward to seeing how the story progresses, only giving it 5 stars because I can't give it any more.

    Fantastic game, and what I think is the best overall game of all the ones I've tried so far. Story is engaging and feels more grounded than other games, despite the crazy premise, managing to hook even me who's not even interested in strong fetishes. Sexual acts in the game always feel like they have some sort of weight or substance and isn't just for the sake of getting off the player—it seems natural to the game and its themes.

    Art and character design is top notch. I have no idea how it's done, but definitely some of the higher quality renders and animations from all I've seen, if not the highest.

    Looking forward to every update for this game.

    One of the best games on the site. The story is very interesting and engaging and to top it off, it has beautiful renders of the girls. Something that I like is how the developers are exploring the back stories/motivation of why each girl is competing in the carnations exhibition, making it challenging to choose who to root for. I also appreciate how the choices you make in the game have some weight/consequences and how the MC questions himself on whether he is doing what he is doing out of necessity for his tuition or because he enjoys dominating/humiliating the girls. I can't wait to see how the story will be developed.

    ShadedWilderness

    Beautiful women, feisty kinks, hot scenes, with the moral dilemmas throughout; From MC's mother backdrop to the various carnations he's employed to care for but also exploit, a contradiction with lots of dramatic trickiness. The breakdowns of the women that remind the MC of his own mother's survival path. The moments of intimacy with the various women contrasted with his chosen employ. The wrestling of one's own thrill with the fragile lives of those in the web he's a mere assistant to.

    It's beautiful, it's dark, it's brooding, it's contemplative, and it's hot.

    Fantastic. Rare. Beautiful. Gritty. Memorable. Unique.

    Chapter 3 Update 4 (Public)

    Fantastic AVN. Anyone who's looking for layered characters whose whole world does't revolve around MC's cock should try this out. The work put into renders, animations, and writing is praiseworthy. All character models look very good too, my favorite models being Hana, Harper, and Veronica.

    Sexual Content: there's a lot as you'd assume from a game set around a brothel- err a gentleman's club- but they're not just there for a quick fap, lot of these also give more insight into the character performing those acts which I really like about this game. It uses sex scenes as a backdrop to reveal the aforementioned layers to characters, including MC. There's a lot of bdsm and a female character can perform sexual acts with characters who are not the MC (as women are supposed to... in a brothel...) so if it's not your cup of tea then steer clear.

    Writing: Plot revolves around a contest between 3 women who are competing against each other to win a prize. Catch being these games aren't just have sex with 30 men for 30 hours but dig into the personal lives of these women, MC is roped into this competition and he also begins to find truths about himself he wasn't aware of.
    The dialogue is witty and smart, and characters are written with personality instead of being empty cliches. All of them have their own strengths and insecurities and all of them are working towards their own objective. There's a bunch of subplots aside from the competition which I find more interesting but so far MC or the story hasn't put much emphasis on it.
    Other male characters are also fleshed out and they (may) play a significant role in story depending on how MC interacts with them. MC's dynamic and interactions with his best friend and Mom account for some heartwarming moments as compared to otherwise bleak and sadistic shit he has to do for the club. And no MC cannnot fuck his mom.

    I only discovered this game now so after 2 years but normally I don't even look at projects in their infancy. This game is not in it's infancy it is actually nicely developed and boy... It is developed well. All models are great I just love every single one of them. There is nice balance between free roam and just visual story. And animations! There are great animations. In summary - this is must play for you. I love how corrupted this shit is.

    Harem Trooper

    Its a decent game depending on your preferences and fetishes and based on them you will agree or disagree with my rating.

    You will like it if you can distance yourself from the MC and overlock it from a third perspecitve. You will like it who likes to humiliate and degrade his LI and Side characters sexually. You will also like if you have light cuckholding tendencies, aka sharing or watching/enjoying your mothers porn past etc.

    You will not like it if you looking for wholesome moments. You will not like it if you look for Harem. You will not like it if you look for romance and you also will not like it if you think you can keep your LI (singular) from taking part in the Adult establishment.

    So with that its pretty clear what this game is and for what it is its ok. Could be better in some parts but nothing what I would say its stupid from story progression or character development. I mean its a story about a MC working in a Brothel for Rich folks and you "let it ride" or try to have some what of a relationship with one of the LI. With that mindset you have to play the game.

    I remember trying this game last year and had mixed feelings of it and waited for more content. While the story can be enjoyable and the MC is not a total looser, I felt that in some part the MC behaved inconsistent so that specific scenes coud happen or that the story could progress in a specific way. In the end it reminded me of the old Japanese VN where you have many routes, but not much to say in it.

    Im not sure where the game is going and from what I played the story could either end in two Chapters, or could milked for 10+ Chapters.

    If you not into this type of content I suggest to try the game for a 1h or so.
    At least where you can progress one of your LI in your liking to see if its suit your taste. If not, I suggest to wait like me when its finised and give it another try. Trust me, if you dont want to play through the game, at least check the scene replay out because some of them is the download alone worth it. (You need a mod to unlock it tho)

    Full disclosure... I am not a fan of most Honey Select games, but there are a couple that rise to the top and this one is probably the best.

    I rarely give a game 5 stars but for me, this game hits all the right buttons. There are very few adult games with decent BDSM, but this one is really good. It is more glamour and or humiliation bondage without the violent element which is just my speed. Plus, you can play the MC in a variety of ways... nice guy, a-hole, deviant, mix of all... it's really well done.

    Additionally, it is well written with a good story. All of the girls have a fleshed out backstory and each of them are different. Each girl represents different interests.. you have the rocker/tattoo/goth, bimbo/slut, redhead/muscle bound, milf/curvy and a cutie to round things out. Of course the concept is not realistic, but once you buy off on it, the rest of the story fits nicely inside.

    The story is essentially about a competition between 3 girls and the cool thing is the MC can help to decide the winner by directing the action and directly influencing the outcomes. There is a lot more to the story and the MC can get serious or just have fun with all, some or one of the girls, but the competition is really what drives the story forward.

    If you like light bdsm, watching girls orgasm, humiliation, playing an MC who can be both caring and selfish, then you should be playing this right now. If you have been interested in it, but have never tried it, this is a good intro. None of the girls are forced to do anything and they can quit at any time.

    the BEST visual novel on this site. clever writing, great renders and characters full of personality. a nice amount of content and more to come, this game will end up as one of the greats. good luck to the dev and i'm excited about futher development.
