    TL;DR Based on 0.7:
    • Gameplay : 5
    • Story : 4
    • Content : 5
    • Potential : 5
    If you like slow-burn corruption games, play it yesterday. If you are on the prowl for instant gratification, turn away and don't look back.

    ------------------------------
    Gameplay
    This is your run-of-the-mill free roam game. Some locations, NPCs on schedules and events triggered at certain times. But where it's miles ahead of most free roam games is the implementation.

    Character names on locations are color-coded, so you know instantly whether you can progress an event chain, need to pursue other characters first to unlock the next step(s), or you have reached the end of the content with a certain character.
    This cuts down the (usually frustrating) random hunt for new events to almost non-existent. It's streamlined to a very large degree.

    You have only 1 resource to keep track of (your memory health) so there is no needless juggling of a myriad stats, or the need to spend 2 hours of your time eating/bathing/reading/exercising to manage your character.
    That said, you still need to take that resource into consideration in the early game, but it's organic and tied into the story.

    You also have a completion stats page readily available to quickly check if you have unseen content and with whom.

    The custom Java-based engine it runs on is evidently created with knowledge and care, as I've had zero bugs/errors in all those hours it took me to finish the content.
    The only issue I've noticed is sometimes the videos take a bit longer to load while in fullscreen.

    Story
    The story is a stretch, as you'd expect from any game that has the MC corrupting everyone they meet, but the premise is at least a bit different and is ever-present throughout the game.
    The MC's condition is the driving force of the entire content and the mechanics of the game and not an unimportant intro you forgot 5 minutes into the game.

    The various characters are very well made and fleshed out enough to be distinct.
    Another point for the story (in conjunction with the Content mentioned below) is that a common pitfall for RL picture games is that the available image-sets for certain characters dictate the story, as you need to build around what you have available.

    This is masterfully tackled here and is one of the high points of the game. Character arcs seamlessly integrate the different imagesets available, and they add to the story instead of distracting from it (a notable example is Kyra's arc).
    Some are more of a stretch (like Angela's accountant), but they still stick to the overall theme.

    Content
    Quality: This is hands down one of the most consistent RL porn games you've probably ever played. Every event of every NPC is consistent to the character used, and you won't encounter odd random actress images/videos filling in the gaps.
    No haphazard collection of gifs, no overused actresses (looking at you, Riley Reid), just content that helps immersing you to the story.

    Quantity:
    There's tons of content already in the game, probably in the range of 8+ hours if you don't spam click your way through without paying attention to the text. I took my time enjoying it, so your mileage may vary slightly.

    Fair warning: Almost all of the content so far is foreplay, and whatever little actual sex happens is towards the end of the current content. As I said, slow burn.

    Potential
    This is already a very solid game. There are no missing mechanics, no incomplete systems, and my feeling is that the only addition going forward is probably more content.
    If the creator manages to keep the current character consistency I can only see it becoming more enjoyable.

    Holy...spent alot of time just getting past the landlandys «winkwink» boobs, but I LOVE THIS GAME! Rewarding grind is the good kind of grind!

    The story is good, the content is good and the consistency in use of models made me like this game even more. My problem with real porn games in general are the constant change of models when switching scenens, this was not a big problem in this game - and I like it!

    Was kind of sceptical due to the game engiene, but the way it is used makes it really good imo.

    Keep up the good work and keep pushing that quallity content. Im looking forward to seeing more of your game!

    Good game in it's genre, average game generally.

    Pros:
    - well picked actresses
    - well picked scenes
    - good amount of content
    - frequent updates
    - ability to choose pace of the game, which can eliminate small amount of grind that there is
    - Dev that cares about his game so much that writes messages to people reviewing it xD

    Cons:
    - facepalmingly weird plot
    - creepy and weird MC
    - this game is basically about MC masturbating in front of other people,
    - most of the H scenes now consist of MC masturbating in front of other people due to his "condition" and this is such a boner killer

    Wow.

    This is going to be my first review on the site, so bear with me here.

    The story of this game, while very unrealistic in reality, stays accurate and consistent throughout the game to make the story seem as real as it possibly can, in order to further advance the story and the development of your relationships.

    I played with incest, and IMO it makes the game make WAY more sense. Slowly corrupting your family as they seem hesitant is much more practical then slowly seducing roommates and a landlady, so I recommend for everyone who plays this to do the same.

    The amount of teasing and buildup in this game is bar-none. It is the best I've ever seen, within real-porn games or not. It is a slow-burner with incredibly hot scenes all the way through, and with great payoffs the further you get into the game.

    Lastly, the best part of the game, IMO, is the dialogue and the scenes chosen throughout the game. Since the game is using real porn instead of art/cartoons, etc., I felt as though it was pivotal to make the scenes make sense to keep you immersed, and WOW did the developer do a good job of that. The scenes and dialogue are consistent and are explained in a great way to portray exactly what is happening on your screen, while making it all sound believable and make sense the entire time.

    Even if you aren't into games with real porn, YOU HAVE TO TRY THIS GAME. It is so damn good. Make sure to read through the dialogue, bask in all the GIFs and pictures used, and fap away. You won't regret it at all.

    10/10 in my book, can't wait for more updates. WELL DONE!

    I had a lot of fun playing this. Love the cast and writing. Progres is somewhat slow but done right i think. Author put a lot of effort into psychoanalysis of one of the daughters like walls of text(i skipped most but it seemed pretty cool). Worst thing is limation of real porn (landlady and other tenants will never get a scene with each other)

    Go play this game, seriously!

    I normally don't care for real porn games. The clips always feel clunky and disjointed with the story. Not the case here. The clips are very well chosen, and everything feels like a smoothly evolving story.

    Now for the real highlight. The creator, GRasputin, has one *hell* of an eye for great tits. I mean, look at this cast:

    Sensual Jane as the "Landlord"
    Angela White as your therapist
    Kylie Page - LL's daughter
    Avery Stone - Lesbian neighbor
    Krissy Lynn - Lesbian's lover
    Jolee Love - Neighbor
    Kyra Hot - LL's older daughter.
    Antonella (LaSirena69) - New roommate.

    I mean, holy shit. That's the '27 Yankees of modern big tit porn stars. I wouldn't mind seeing Gabbie Carter as a new roommate, but shit, how can you really complain. Even the slim lesbian neighbor has a great little B cup rack. Just unbelievably good choices.

    Is there some grind? Yes. But it's completely manageable. Choose the 'fast' option in the settings, and keep hammering the 'green' options with the women, and you'll advance the plot reasonably quickly. And then get ready for a big breast buffet.

    Great game I enjoyed the concept and game play, would really like to see the option getting the girls pregnant in future updates to come and maybe add a redhead wink wink. Over all the game is excellent and cant wait for future updates to see where this leads.

    First review I put for a game but its such a good surprise I had too. The story pacing is amazing and weirdly makes sense for a porn incest game. The media is high res most of time and I LOVE the fact that it lets you choose how much grind you want in that playthrough. Props to the dev for making his own engine too.

    Stop reading this and give the game a try, it's good I promise.


    This is a great game with its main strength being the writing and scenarios which are both superb. The pacing and choices of scenes are both great as well

    The progression with the women is "just right" It's slow enough that it doesn't feel like some rushed instant gratification game you play once and never look back on. It's fast enough to keep you interested and hooked. It does this all while being as realistic as a porn game about fucking your relatives can be.

    I love management style games, and I found this game quite enjoyable. The scenes were hot, and the girls cute. I liked the writing. Definetly will be considering supporting more actively.. Keep up the good work.

    One of the best games i player so far, hot girls and good story. For those who aren't afraid to work for the progress this game is great. If you want to fap one out in a few minutes your wrong here. Sorry for my weak english.

    This slow-burn game keeps getting more and more interesting by each update. It's the slow-but-steady pace of conquering the ladies that makes this game so much addicted. Not to mention the carefully and beautifully plot-carving and building certainly makes this game excels similar others (that is, if there is or are any similar others ;)). Very, very good and much excellent job Mr Developer! (y)(y)(y)(y)(y)

    Version: v0.3.1
    Length: 4-6 hours (if you read the story)
    The best: slow and hot tease progression with very well-matched porn
    The worst: no real player agency: a multi-story VN

    Summary: a game taking the popular elements 'incest perv boy', 'slow tease progression', 'real porn' and, surprisingly, producing a solid, well executed and captivating experience


    Story: a decent amount of work was put in to flesh out a seemingly lukewarm setting of an amnesiac college boy healing his affliction via... sigh... perving on women (to their face, even!)

    Backstory, motivations, justifications, characterizations are really good - for a porn game. Suspension of disbelief is not that hard - if you actually read the text, - helped by liberal sprinkling of realistic psychological science. No 'wink, wink, you perv, 4th wall break!' moments here

    The story even offers long and short versions of some segments. The long versions are sometimes... long


    Gameplay: A typical room/house man-hunt (heh) for 'landlady' and her daughters

    Progress is introduced via separate linear stories per each NPC in a pseudo-open world - which is thankfully scaled down to severely reduce the grind (all actions are available within one-two clicks, 'situation hunting' is eliminated by simply indicating which rooms contain something new at which hour)

    A nice diversion concerns theory-based detective work ferreting out the psychological weaknesses of girls. Not complicated, but certainly adds something new

    The game, though, could benefit from at least some decisions and branches, for it is not really replay-ready right now


    XXX content: the game presents what is possibly the best ever integration of real-life porn images/videos into a game

    Almost all actresses are chosen to 'look normal' while clothed and to 'match' their characters. ~80% of all graphical content features no nudity (!), but that only seems to make things better (different than the usual?) by so-so-slowly ramping up the intimacy and corruption

    The story and graphics are melded: the actresses maintain scene-fitting clothing and even appropriately change their facial expressions - depending on the current situation, - by utilizing multiple pics from the same shoot. If the player has no previous experience with the actresses (and those particular shoots) from before, it is quite easy to 'believe' that the content was produced especially for this game!


    Engine: a custom Java beast; no JVM download, no installation, no fuss. Some questionable - and optional, - theming choices. 'Programmer's UI' :)


    Bugs: almost none (3 random storyline breaks during the whole playthrough, not encountered again after loading a save)

    I'll right off the bat say I'm usually not a fan of 'real porn' games. However, I was pleasantly surprised by this game. The map and its navigations are well done, the character choices for their positions are excellent and the story of staving off your amnesia is unique. I'd fully recommend giving this game a playthrough. Easily worth 5 stars.

    A very good real porn game. The story is plausible and provides a good reason for the way female acts around the MC and it doesn't look like the females have just become sluts from the start like in other games. The corruption pacing is quite good. And the scene and the videos and photos doesn't look forced at all, it feels like the videos were shot to make this game.

    Overall a good game. 10/10 would recommend.

    Frazzanova

    Actually one of the best real porn games I've played. The interface is great, you get the locations of each NPC and a hint on if there is new content without endlessly clicking on every room and character for every time period of the game trying to find the exact event you need to proceed. There's a small amount of relationship building, say about 3 interactions per new unlock, without either grinding for hours or just having content handed to you. High quality videos, decent writing. The premise needs a lot of suspension of disbelief, but that's pretty much required for any "landlady/roommate" game. I'd give it more than 5 stars if I could.

    Been a while since I ran into a game I was this excited about.

    The story is really awesome, the pacing of the corruption seems perfect to me and the characters are mostly believable.

    You can still poke some holes in the game's internal storytelling logic, but hey, I'm not complaining. There's certainly a lot of effort and research/knowledge put into the games story to make it as believable as possible, given the premise.

    Great! I like the way the game is done. The java platform could run better, but it is not a major problem. Also the videos and pics with real models are great. And the story and the background work well.
    I'm waiting for the next updates.

    I liked this game that I'm subbing to the authors patreon. For some reason this checks all the boxes of what I'm looking coming here. Highly enjoyable, good progression, no impression of grinding. As long as thing don't get super weird at one point, this is on a great path.
