Paradise City is a VN where you play as Tom Hiddleston and go to the swinger's island with your wife.
Choice is everything in this game in both all the best ways and all the worst ways. You can keep your wife to yourself while banging other girls on the side, you can let your wife fuck around while you do the same, you can watch your wife fuck around while you get nothing, your wife can cheat on you, and most permutations between. On a surface level, that's a lot of variety right?
The problem is how wildly different the main characters need to be to make all of those worlds make sense. The male MC has to want to both share his wife and not share his wife. The female MC has to both want to fuck around and not fuck around. The end result is Schrodinger's characters, at any given time the male MC is both a cuck and not a cuck; the female MC a hotwife and not a hotwife. You can choose to make their choices consistent to a degree, but it's all over the place.
It's an ambitious choice and I honestly like a lot of the scenes, but there's very little in the way of a coherent story or characters. I'd rather read a more linear story where it feels like the author has a plan than a hodgepodge of scenes that barely feels connected. This game feels like somewhere between three to five stories duct taped together.
Other than that, the art is fine and the music is offputting, I have no idea what to really think of this game as a whole, but I probably like three of the five stories presented as one story here so there we go.
