VN Ren'Py Phone Story [v0.3] [Taptus]

Sorry to say this one isn't for me. I was giving it a shot following what I believed was a netorase path and then the "hacker" shows up out of nowhere to blackmail the mc. Why? This immediately turned me off to the whole thing. It's not going to be netorase anymore if there's blackmail involved.

Agreed, my least favorite part.
While I'm very interested in MC getting access to the wife's phone, I think blackmail isn't the way to do it because now it's like most other NTR games. If the wife gives MC access, or he stumbles across a way is another thing.

Need to try this game

fThe game gives three paths of development Netorare, Netorase and the path of love. Of the three stats (Love, Lust, Freedom) which one (or combination) should be stressed for each route? Thank!

This is a great question...
It's a bit irritating to be "open" to the idea of sharing her, then saying yeah, MC will talk to her about it, but then never gets to that conversation... Maybe the next update will get there... But right now, it's too NTRish with that last convo between Kira and Lisa, especially considering Kira knows how, what the MC and Lisa are thinking... This could easily be a mutually consensual thing without all the "behind MC's back" stuff, if the MC and Lisa would just freaking talk, like they were supposed to do after the bar...

The "blackmail" is an unnecessary device, particularly on a "sharing" route...
Cheating, cuckolding, sure, ok.
And, I agree, the blackmail plot completely ruins any netorase/"sharing" feel this story could have, because right now, ain't feeling it...

Love is over 130, Lust and Freedom 50-60ish (or really any combination of those 2), and Lisa's horn dogging out with Kira over trainer Sam like the MC doesn't really exist...
There's been 2 or 3 opportunities for the MC and Lisa to actually have a talk, but the story keeps preventing/skipping it, it's frustrating... Maybe some things are lost in translation, or maybe the next update will smooth things out a bit on a "sharing" route, if there is one... Will wait and see. But if it doesn't start getting more "sharing" and less cheating/cuckold/NTR soon, not sure an agreeable "sharing" path will be salvageable... I mean, an open relationship is supposed to work both ways, right? with boundaries and such, communication. Not Lisa screwing the trainer and then asking for forgiveness later...

The wife's friend Kira keeps telling me that I need to talk with the wife about an open relationship, but I already told her no because I don't want an open relationship, I want the wife to be corrupted by her into being a cheating slut.

Well, you're pretty much on track.
Because even if you say yeah, I want to talk with her, "the talk" doesn't happen...
Kira is full NTR (one-way "open" relationship) corruption mode...
