pros
— female actresses have distinct appearances, allowing everyone to find a character they like
— author has made an effort to create a coherent and logical storyline
— girls' names in locations are written in different colors, which helps us understand if there is new content or if we can improve current relationships
— there is a button to skip old scenes
— dialogues are well-writen

cons
— another linear game, in which you can't progress the plot without improving relationships with every girl
— the lack of a rollback option in dialogues is a frustrating experience, because it is very easy to accidentally skip current text, that forces us to load the last save
— a lot of repetitive scenes, even with cheats enabled: old scenes only acquire a couple of new photos or a short video and are considered as new
— despite the useful name coloring feature I mentioned earlier, it sometimes doesn't work correctly
— due to the linearity of the game, we must do what the author intends, even if you find mc's behavior disgusting and harmful to his family and friends
— although mc has little excuse for his conduct, throughout the game he hasn't managed or even tried to improve relations with anyone without using drugs (his medications) on them

features
— in first few hours of the game, there is no porn content, but there is quite enough erotic content (I managed to have first sex on the 52nd day, and this was with secondary character; with main characters, it's a much longer journey)
— the game has built-in cheats, which I could count as a plus, but there is absolutely no point in not using them, as otherwise you will simply have to do more monotonous and boring things
— a lot of psychological monologues, which some may find interesting
— incest
— foot-fetishism
— voyeurism
— lesbian

conclusion
if you are a fan of real porn games and can put up with repetitive scenes and mc's personality, you should definitely try it, especially considering the number of completed and long games in the genre. personally, I don't want to spend time to finish this game.

Not sure what the hype about this game is.

It follows an incredibly contrived and frankly shit plot about an amnesiac protagonist that somehow very conveniently can only regain his memories if he masturbates in an embarrassing situation. But it also takes that very same moron plot extremely seriously at that.

The girls aren't interesting, the grind is massive, the writing is average, it's a whole bunch of meh.

I loved playing this game and I'm a little sad that I made it to the end. I would have liked to go on and see even more content. Maybe add quests with the women who make small appearances with the sisters. I would have liked to have been able to have fun with several characters at the same time.

didnt expect to like a java game
that being said if you play more than 1h. the vids dont load
my guess is that its something todo with it being written in java
the porn media is good.
the way the routes open is interesting
picked this games cause dev had another banger

Excellent game and story telling little too grindy but as per the story it is needed so overall a good one . charectorizations are good and good pic of stars too apt to the game.

The story is good and well written, I specially enjoyed Kyra's story and how it developed. At no point it felt like a part of the story was forced or created for the main story to keep making sense. This story is more of a visual novel in the way that while you have choices for events, they won't change on how the story plays out.

To me the UI seems very user-friendly. The color coding of events is helpful as to reduce unnecessary grinding and to know which are the new events.

On the topic of grinding, while there is some it didn't seem like a lot to me. In most cases you'll have to repeat a scene 3 times to gain +1 relationship point. In some other cases you will have to repeat parts of an event to choose different choices on that event to progress on that character.

One of the few things I did not enjoy was the fact that on some characters (some of them main characters), you can spend in-game weeks without any new event or progression. I do wish that these events were more evenly distributed in order to have a constant feel of progression and not suddenly feel like that character's story has been stopped for a while.

I enjoyed the videos and photos included in the game and I think the written events around them were well made. I also enjoyed the choice of models for this game.

The health bar + pills gameplay aspect was easy to manage throughout the game. The navigation throughout the map is also pretty easy to use, with the helpful addition of a bar on the left which displays events with progress available that are on other parts of the map.

Overall a great game with a very big amount of good content. One of the best "real porn" games I've played, I do recommend it.

Definitely worth a playthrough, very fun, some times a bit grindy but it was made so that the grind is also fun.

It is also very intuitive, the hud is simplistic but gets the message across perfectly.

Good story, great models.
Recommended.

This is a popular game, so I don't imagine one more review will sway anyone. Still, let me say - wow. This game is absolutely massive, and it has the content and hots to back it up.

If I have any complaint about this game, it's that it's very linear - a problem which becomes more apparent as you progress. This is mitigated somewhat by the gates blocking progress you need to grind and work through (never too much grinding, just a little repeating events) but ultimately it becomes clear there's a set order in which all these events happen and there isn't much you can do to influence them.

Additionally, the entire introduction/setup for the plot is downright ridiculous. Entirely over the top and unnecessary, but fortunately gets left behind.

Look - if anything about this game grabs your interest, if the download numbers and review average haven't convinced you, just download it. Get the full image pack, jump in, skim through the introduction, give it a few hours. I still haven't completely beaten it, and I'm probably... 20 hours in? Totally estimate.

This game is one of a kind, unmissable - not perfect, but worth your time in every way.

Jushak left a good review worth reading; I agree on all points. It's a good thing too, since at this point I lack the energy to really give a shit about the game.

The writing is very sub-par. The dev briefly touches on some taboos and kinks, there's good variety in ideas to pursue, but the execution falls very flat. The initial premise of the MCs "medical needs" dominates every encounter and scene and leaves very little room to explore the characters' personal desire. The landlady/mother being lonely and sex-starved is played with, but ultimately every interaction you have with her snaps back to "Uh oh I need to cum for my memory, whatever will we do?"

The MC is just present enough to be aggravating. Zero discipline or self control, constantly begging women to let him cum.

The dev gives a ton of time to one character, Kyra, in particular, but it is a massive snooze fest.

The game just keeps going and going and going, drip feeding new scenes that add one or two new pictures or videos from some basic porn clips.

I think I probably got ~4/5 of the content done, and I'm probably not going to finish. Even at the end, I straight up can't keep it up long enough to get to the next scene. I don't think there's a greater indictment of a porn game than that...

One of the best games if played...
Great use of a fresh idea, complete new world setting, lovely models and awesome videos and replaybility (it`s that a word).
A must play game for everyone and hope he continuos doing great game as this (check The Monastery on development)

In short, this is a decent-ish story that would just be better as a kinetic novel kind of deal rather than a sandbox. The sandbox elements just make you spend orders of magnitude more busywork, with ton of unnecessary repetition. I only ended up finishing the game out of sheer stubborness, rather than enjoyment.

Pros:
+ Interesting idea.
+ Dialogue is mostly well written.
+ Actually finished.

Neutrals:
* Yet another absent father, domineering older sister, submissive younger sister and mom the MC is obsessed with fucking. Yes, the default terms are "landlady" and "friend" but we all know that is only because of Patreon rules and tons of dialogue make no fucking sense with the default values.

Cons:
- Tons and tons of unnecessary grinding, even with the "cheat mode" enabled.
- No, seriously, the amount of pointless "<character> doesn't seem to want to interact with you"-type scenes you have go through to progress the story is ridiculous.
- Gating of content, which makes the above points worse. You can't progress with character X until you've also progressed other character(s) to a specific point. At worst you'll spend entire weeks passing the day until you reach that ONE event with ONE character - possibly chain of several events - to unlock more content.
- No real/meaningful choices from what I've seen. Choosing not to do something just means you (need to) get the event later, essentially not resolving the event and expending the time slot for nothing.
- Did I mention the ungodly amount of grinding?
- Majority of "event chains" are just the same pictures repeated until you progress the event and get one or more new pictures added to the chain. Including mostly changed dialogue. After the umpteenth time I missed the new dialogue because I thought it was yet another repeat of the earlier pictures and dialogue I just started skimming most of the dialogue.
- Grindy.

I honestly, genuinely have absolutely no idea what the positive reviews of this game are based on, other than the quality of the videos. You are supposed to use the UI to indicate what to do next, but the UI is often inaccurate, and there is no quest system I have found to let the player know what to do next, and there is the equivalent of a health meter counting down that you need to refill over time by somehow stumbling on a right choice or game over. A vast majority of the time, the option you are told you need to select will do nothing, or will even work against you. Even with cheats activated, the gameplay drags and drags, and just has a building frustration from the intentionally tedious gameplay and broken UI that just makes this game a chore with porn rather than an actual game that is fun.

This is the gold standard for how to construct a "real porn" game: the selection, editing, and use of the images and clips is practically immaculate. Not only does it use a single model for each character (except the male MC), but the costumes and locations are kept largely consistent as well, and even things like changes in hair style and appearance are woven into the plot.

The videos, pictures and writing are pieced together extremely well, and this makes a huge difference in the suspension of disbelief: in creating the illusion that what we're seeing is actually the people in the story, moving around a real house and neighborhood and taking part in the events described, not just a bunch of images of porn stars harvested from different shoots in different locations that really have nothing to do with what the game pretends.

Other pros:

• Hot sex scenes
• Good writing, clearly well researched
• Good characterization of the LIs, creating lives and personalities for them outside of being sex objects
• Some interesting gameplay that requires attention to the story (or trial-and-error via save-scumming)

Cons:

• The grind is extreme; do not play on default difficulty
• The story and gameplay run out of steam towards the end (you end up skipping through weeks of time just to wrap up the last few remaining events), and also go a bit off the rails, changing the characters' motivations and losing interest in the girls as anything other than sex objects; the ending itself is anticlimactic
• The ending for one of the main LIs was, to me, very depressing, and soured me on the whole thing. I know it's some people's kink, but I think some player agency to choose the outcome would really have gone a long way here:
  
  Spoiler

  You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
• All girls and events are obligatory to progress. Fair enough, but some of the side-characters feel rather extraneous. One in particular (the lodger) should just have been cut from the game
• The custom Java engine is a pain. In particular, a single mis-click can easily skip a chunk of exposition, with no way of going back (and in this game, the exposition matters)
• Also, for me it launched in full-screen, with no apparent way to quit or switch to windowed mode, and not respecting OS control keys like Alt-Tab. You have to play through the whole intro (>5 mins) to get to settings or instructions for switching screen modes, or to save after defining names and relationships.

Probably the best real porn game that I've played. Excellent UI, great models and decent writing- really well paced slow burn corruption. Once you've worked out the mechanisms, of he grins isn't particularly ha d or time consuming.

V1.0.03 played.

Paradise Found [v1.0.03] [Alcahest]

Pros

• An interesting/nice story (with funny reason) emphasizing incest & polyamorous. Incest approach with mom as well the sisters was portrayed well emphasizing the social forbiddingness, especially mom’s reluctance to give-up the morality was very well expressed.
• Excellent quality of image renders/animations – of course they are from the most popular porn site images/video clips
• The developer seems more familiar with phycology and law addiction; make us to familiarize the phycology/mind reading tactics. We need to concentrate the story dialogues little bit deeply to find the weakness of the female characters to pass the mini-test by the developer even with the cheats
• Playability and grammar are all just OK no issue
• Sound was OK

Cons

• Lack of genuine or more of fictitious for sexuality
• Lack of seductiveness in sexual approach as every where it is reasoned as memory health recovery of the MC not able to get the real sexual pleasures; just sympathy over takes.
• Even with cheat/guide takes a lot of time to complete as we need to repeat all the incidents numerous times.
• Performance: little bit lagging for images to load
• Unable to roll back; leaving us to save and reload as the only choice.

Really great storyline, and chose great models for the whole thing. I really appreciated the work on Cinnamon and the friend down the street, both were really well done. I definitely consider this one of the best written games on site

This is probably the best I played on this site. There is tons of content to explore, the storyline is interesting, the model selection is great, and the hint system is great so that you won't get lost.
I would recommend playing this game at least once.
A solid 5-star from my side.

This is the best corruption game I've ever played. The build up gets you rearing to go and when the action hits, oh it hits. And hits and hits and hits for the entire rest of the game. Insanely good game, the gold standard of corruption.

Amazing game; a lot of time and effort has gone into this one. The videos are high quality, the women are incredibly sexy, and the progression through to the end game is well crafted. I really like the fact you can opt for sound
