VN - Unity - Phone Behind Bars [v0.6] [PBBGames]

I enjoyed playing this game :
- the plot is really interesting
- the discussions are of a good quality
- the pictures looks very good
Only one way of improvement : more pictures would be perfect
Thanks to the creator and good luck for the next chapters

This is v0.6 and there's literally nothing. It's like reading a whole essay to find out there nothing at the end of it. Texts after texts and you get one pic that is not even nude. Best case, you might get 3 pics per chapter. The description are actually good and makes you feel like youll get something and then thats it, no pic. just an essay. Not sure why this is rated so high but this is a example of show, not tell. If I wanted to read, I would be reading and not playing this.

Bad story, don't think the choices mattered much. For being AI and not actual renders you would think there would be more pictures. Like even the reason you're in jail seems to have had little thought behind it. If the scenario in the game happened in real life, you would have been tested for gun shot residue, and it would have been negative. Very confused why this game is rated so high.

This is a pretty cute game, totally worth the time.

Pros:
* The artwork is hot without being overly explicit (for better or worse). Its AI but it is well-done AI - where it is consistent, intentional, has a style, and is nice to look at. And the girls look adorable
* The writing is sexy. Not as lewd as I like but its good to have a change of pace here and there
* The corruption is kinda realistic... though its more from realizing the characters were already corrupt or wanting to be corrupt. Which is more realistic then church lady -> slut in under a week, slightly disappointing for those into corruption arks, kinda a cool take from an NTR perspective since its more a 'realization ark'
* The NTR (at least the path I took, don't know if there are really other paths) is soft. Which isn't necessarily good / bad, but hard NTR is often just written badly (the MC ends up coming off as a horrible and pathetic human being more often then not), so its easy to read through without getting upset by this one. Or not too upset, sometimes it takes a little while to communicate

Cons:
* The patron codes are annoying, especially since they don't stay unlocked. Devs.. please stop it. They'll get leaked anyway, if not then its a 5 second download to get something that will crack open your game engine and just get the codes... its just annoying for players, including supporters. Just let folk finance you if and when they can afford to, by providing good and consistent quality content. Or don't, just saying the codes are annoying to all players
* The game follows two stories.. and they don't interact in any way (literally, like a week will pass in one story and when you switch chats it might have been less then an hour), which just feels weird. Either make two games or have one block progression of the other so they stay in sync. Ideally have interaction between the stories, where you talk to the mother about her daughter and vice versa
* Some of the reactions feel like they need... 'more'. Like when the mc discovers one of the characters is sluttier then expected and has been doing a lot of sex stuff.. aaaaaand it doesn't really come up, he just drops it. Doesn't try to talk to her about it, doesn't go 'how long has this been going on', no discussion, no introspection with some kind of online (phone-accessible) therapist... just 'ok, that happened, and moving on'
* The prison aspect feels kinda lost. The guy could be anywhere - on an oil rig, on deployment, anything. Aside from a bit of a mcguffin for the wife to do what she's doing, its not really used. Like asking for pics to trade with cell-mates. Or conjugal visits (with him or as favors for others in the prison). Something. Not a biggie, just kind of a mild disappointment in the back of my mind.

I don't wanna be harsh with this game. Honestly the art carries it, but it carries it very well, and the writing is certainly sexy and strong enough to keep you clicking through the story. And there are enough choices (maybe real choices?) to keep you invested. Its worth the download if you like this art style and genre. Is it worth supporting once in a while? Mmm.. decide for yourself, for me I'd probably need a good bit more content and those codes to go away. Maybe a few more plot lines spinning off But eventually, yea, I could see it getting there. For now its more at where I'd pay a one-time thing on a service to get it when its complete, or at a major milestones of development, but not monthly.

Absolute wall of china of text. But great. The art in my opinion is very good for AI. I think the wife is the hottest thing in any of these phone games. I would love more pics of the action, but this seems more of a story and text orientated. The wife story is great so far.

I don't really care for the story of the two girls, but I guess it's largely optional anyway.

Updates could be quicker. I am already dying although to be fair there was only continuation for the story of the girls in 0.6. Moar pics of the wife like the one from behind in the ropes. God that is a hot pic.

Bloody ripper of a game. The story isn't just some cookie cutter "she went here, met this bloke, did that" kinda thing it's more like a proper adventure book
As for the art can’t say I care too much I’m a grownass girl, used to books without pictuers but from what I can tell, it’s solid, and heaps of people are raving about it.

Would love to see more filth and spicy scenes ay! Feels like the story’s leading up to it, so fingers crossed the next updates bring the heat Can’t bloody wait!

If the dev's reading this mate, please, drop updates more often! Once a month is way too long, I’m dyin here

One of my fav games so far, no joke!

I really enjoy these phone games, and I've played many of them, so here's what I think about this one:

Story - It's not cliche, which is a rare find in this genre

Art - It's really hard to find a phone game that doesn’t use an anime art style (personally, I'm a bit tired of it) This one has something more photorealistic, I'm not sure what the exact style is, but I defintely like it

Characters - I like how the main character's wife looks and acts I'm not a fan of PLUS-size women, so this fit waifu is exactly what appeals to me

Story progression – some people might complain about the gradual character development, especially the fact that the wife hasn't been taken in different positons yet, but for me, this anticipation and imersion are the most exciting parts
The way the author teases the player is just brilliant

Overall, the game is genuinely great and will definitely appeal to fans of rich story

This game excels in many areas and offers a refreshing experience compared to the usual clichéd games.
The story is deep, creative, and engaging, with rich and mature characters. The relationships feel natural and meaningful, and the FMC is portrayed as an elegant and principled woman rather than a shallow character.
The visuals are satisfying, though there's room for improvement. Writing is purposeful and avoids dull, one-dimensional clichés, creating a captivating atmosphere with strong family and story dynamics.
While the game has some minor flaws, like limited player choices and occasional whiny dialogue, the developer's passion and consistent updates keep players invested. The mobile-inspired interface, detailed backstory, and slow-burn approach make it stand out.
With more content and features like full-screen mode or customizable names, this game has the potential to become even better. It’s still early in development, but updates are regular, and the developer seems genuinely passionate about the project. Overall, it’s a promising game worth keeping an eye on!

I played this game since it's launch on F95, the story thus far seems okay, frustrating that it feels short, but I do understand code and 5000+ lines of code per update ain't no joke.

I'll give my honest review here now, with constructive feedback on things to perhaps add to the game.

• The storyline of the MC being in jail brings a thrill of not being able to control what happens with his wife or daughter

• The buildup of tension between characters is enjoyable, especially the MC not trusting everyone and then learning things happening to his wife( I would love if the MCs wife wasn't as blunt with her advances towards others( if it was true NTR and he only found out via a 3rd party she got abused/molested whilst being drunk etc.

• The daughter's friend is a good-ish idea, would've loved it more if a concerned classmate contacted the MC to tell him about the things his daughter got up too and more and more stories reach him about her turning into a real slut.

• Would love if the daughter did a "FansOnly" and the MC figuring out if people is trying to frame his daughter or something like that(That be a thrilling story to follow)

• If the MC got involved into a gang inside the prison, and an opposing gang figured out who the MCs family was and basically tortured him that way by worming their way into their daily lives to have their way with his wife and daughter.

• The night club idea can and definitely will work, there's elements there that can make every encounter she has at the club be thrilling, like ex. She becoming a stripper but not telling her husband (Things she would do to save her husband type of deal)

• The assistant Kira, shouldn't drop bombs on the MC, but rather be subtle and vague not give the MC direct answers to his questions, as to not lose their best looking waitress/ dancer, citing that they might lose income because the MCs wife brought a lot of clients to the club.

• Somehow have the MC be able to track and monitor his wife's and daughter's movements and be able to spy on them using friends/ CCTV/ phone cloning tech and learning that way of what they get up to, and sending people after them to stop them what they doing only to have whomever he sends take advantage of the situation.

• I love the build up, the read, yes it's a Porn game on a porn game website, but reading how the MC is frustrated and not getting through to his wife or daughter and having others corrupt them is definitely a WIN in my book, but please do the corruption in stages, nobody likes it if she's angel today and by tomorrow night she turned into a succubus ,but give us in a NTR fashion hints and/ or clues that's what's happening and that's she's enjoying it.

As for the story as it stands at V 0.5 I'm pleased with how the story progressed, would've loved it more if the MC gave suggestions and the MCs wife followed her own logic and did what she thought was a good idea only to be used, molested and loves it but not telling her husband out of fear that he will be mad etc.

And yes I'm a true NTR fan, I love a bodycount on a female, definitely not a cuck and can sense frustration and helplessness when things happen that's out of his control obviously that's what thrilling about NTR for me the fact that he can't control what's happening and must deal and accept for whatever happens next.

The art looks fine. The plot is as to be expected. My only gripe is that you are forced to be accepting of her cheating. And thats a shame to be honest. I get that its an ntr game, but as it was sort described to be ntr or nts, i would have expected more control of my own opinions.

A good amount of pics for the stepdaughter, but a little empty, storywise for the wife, or maybe i just didnt go far enough.
Dialogue is actually decent, if you dont take the fact that you dont really have much of an opinion into consideration.

Even with a few flaws, which I don't find particularly annoying or numerous, this is one of my favorite games. The narrative is fantastic, the AI art is consistent (which I enjoy despite it being AI), and I enjoy the phone interface of the game. Also, the game developer has been enhancing it and providing more images. Overall, I eagerly anticipate every update for this game. C:

An interesting concept of the game, when you communicate only by phone. Not a bad plot, beautiful art. But everything is spoiled by the lack of choice and gaps in the plot. Or I misunderstood, but the real choice was only for the daughter's friend to send or not send a photo. Particularly thrown off track by the moment after which I could no longer play, when we have proof of my wife's betrayal, she says that the situation was with another person, when you try to find out about the situation you know, she just says we'll discuss it later I have to run and you no longer return to this topic and communicate as before. 5/10

Not the best gameplay experience. You cannot speed up the chat in istant mode you have to keep pushing space bar or enter till death you can, only receive messages from one chat at time and above all there is no possibilities to save where you want to left, you have to finish the charapter or restart it. Contents for now are ok i prefer more picture and less chat beacuse pics are very few. For now an average game that with a better gameplay could be above average

I really like this game and it's one of the games that have me frequently checking for updates.

The visuals are great and the dev actually put in some effort to build a backstory for the characters and a world around them. This is not yet another porn game with one-dimensional characters that are constantly horny and that fuck each other every 2 sentences. It's more of a slow burn so if that's not your thing then this game ain't for you.

It's still early in development so there isn't a lot of content yet but the update schedule is very decent, especially for a solo dev and I can't wait to see what happens next.

I also spoke to the dev on patreon and he/she seems like a really nice dude/dudette who has a lot of passion for this project.

AI game with decent art.
Most of the features are locked behind a paywall. There are lots of fake Reviews here that don't bother telling you even the basic facts.

1 out of 2 routes is locked behind a paywall.
There is no porn inside the game yet.
There is only AI art in this game.
The "Phone" concept has been done multiple times.

This is a mediocre game with decent to good AI art.
The shady Patreon promotions changed my rating from a 3 to 2. Really pissed off.

Edit: The Fake Reviews from brand new empty accounts increase. Lowring my rating to 1

This game has performed remarkably well in many aspects. Some of the low-star reviews weren’t fair, but you know what? It doesn’t even matter. What truly matters is Patreon, where mature supporters have genuinely backed the developer. I truly appreciate them
I think this is the first (or maybe the second) mobile-centric game with a serious story and a meaningful relationship. Most others are highly clichéd, featuring a one-dimensional MC and FMC who spend all their time teasing each other. They fail to realize that teasing only works when the story and relationships are deep and meaningful—it shouldn't be the sole purpose of their existence!

• Story: Engaging, serious, and creative
  FMC and MC Personalities: Mature, rich, grounded in principles and values, and most importantly, we’re dealing with an elegant lady, not an easy girl
• Relationships: Excellent—very natural and deep
• Art: Completely satisfying. There’s room for improvement, but it’s already very good
• Writing: Like the story and personalities, the writing is serious and mature. It avoids one-dimensional, clichéd, and dull approaches—every line of dialogue is captivating and purposeful
• Atmosphere: The MC’s circumstances, family, and the story itself create a fantastic vibe and atmosphere that’s easy to immerse yourself in
• And more!

This game is highly recommended to anyone seeking a mature and thrilling and memorable experience

Just terrible,ai images are ok , the story is cool but the execution of it is just crap 0 influence 0 branching all "choices" are non consequential and so poorly made that every choice feels like an insult to the readers intelligence.
four chapters barely moved the story along and on top of that no skipping of dialog or any way to have it show faster. I would give it 2.5 stars.

This has very good promise from the getgo. 0.2 has just been released when I am writing this.

The pictures look amazing, I dont think anyone will have any complaints there.
The writing could be better, and there could be some more choices for the player. The player sometimes HAS to come off as a little whiny, and that's not my thing at all.
The wife talk is good, the lawyer talk could be a bit better as that's where the MC usually end up being a bit whiny and passive aggressive.
I'm supporting this on Patreon for now to see where it goes, but if it dosent improve in the next few updates, or if the updates arent coming fast, I'll probably stop patreoning for a while and then check back in later.

There are a few things that should be fixed before the next release. There should be the option to go "full screen" with the game, not just a cellphone layout on your desktop.
You should be able to chose your name, at least it shouldnt be "Mr Player".
You should be able to either roll back parts of the convo or chose chapter so that you can get all the pictures.

I just had to share my experience with Phone Behind Bars! The art style is absolutely awesome—it's visually stunning and really adds to the overall vibe of the game. The story is also super interesting, keeps me hooked.

I played patreon version with Emma storyline, and it was definitely worth it! I loved it so much that I ended up replaying the game two times Each playthrough revealed new details and made me appreciate the story even more. If you're looking for a unique game with great visuals and a compelling narrative, I highly recommend giving Phone Behind Bars a try!

I just started playing Phone Behind Bars, and I’ve got to say, it’s pretty intriguing! This phone and texting simulation game pulls you right into a gripping story told entirely through text messages
So far, the plot is all about this character who gets wrongfully imprisoned. Right from the get-go, you feel the pressure as they try to clear their name. The conversations are really relatable, and I’m already invested in how they’ll navigate all the challenges ahead.

The art style is cool, too—minimalist but effective. It fits the whole texting vibe perfectly, and you can really get a sense of each character’s personality just from their messages, which is nice.

But, I did run into a couple of bumps. First off, there’s no Android version available, which is a bit of a letdown for those of us who like to game on our phones. Plus, it looks like you can’t change character names, which kinda limits how personal you can make the experience as you dive deeper into the story.

Overall, I’m excited to see where this journey takes me! The mix of an interesting story and cool art has me hooked, but I hope the gameplay stays just as engaging despite these little hiccups. I’ll keep you posted as I play more of Phone Behind Bars!
