Ren'Py - Photo Hunt [v0.18.1 Extra] [Moochie]

Excellent Game!

Pros:
Great Renders. No shitty one-liner/pun/humor script. No instant loss because you chose the wrong and clearly not obvious choice. No time limit quests that are impossible to complete unless you grind without sex scenes. Putting more points into a stat will allow you to not need to guess. Warnings because a major unchangable event/path.

Cons:
Sandbox is a little irritating. Some characters (Kira) and events literally cannot be found unless you use a walkthrough or cheat. Phone hints dont list side events. Have to play the game twice or cheat because there are 2 routes for many characters. There's corruption/blackmail but no sleeping/drunk sex or rape.

Overall: 4.5/5
A lot better than 95% of porn games that exist

Fun game, I'm glad I started late because the content was addicting. Trying each character route has been interesting. All sorts of girls to pursue. I'm looking forward to see how each story continues to develop. Great job dev.

Reasons you should try this game:
1. The art is top notch of its type. I hesitated a bit as the characters looked a bit too exotic to me, but ended finding the visuals pretty enjoyable and arousing. The scene is well-set, the body rendered with details. The visual part of this VN is at least a 8/10.
2. The writing is enjoyable - not the 'what a line I wanna reread this' level good, but the dialogue does not feel cliché for an incest story, the character has psychological profile complicated enough to feel alive but not too twisted to kill the mood. The interaction between Mom and her co-worker is intriguing. I'd reckon the writing beats some 70% of the 5-star VNs on this site.
3. Very little grinding - where the event does repeat, it comes with interesting change of dialogue or new visuals. The stats is well set such that you experience the joy of accomplishment without too many repetitive clicks.

Reasons you might not wanna try it:
1. It's a typical peek-touch-foreplay-…-insertion build-up, with events and tasks in between. You might wanna save it for later if you are looking for a quick release.
2. It’s a sandbox, which means the events might not be triggered in the order the author intended. A boy I've only met once turned to my front door one day calling me his best bro and discussing nudes of my sis which I've never sent him. Nothing too harmful though, actually only a flaw which shouldn't stop you from trying.

Other information for reference:
The content is plenty (v.0.11.2a), I've not finished the game but would estimate there's at least some 30 hrs quality play. The sound is there but nothing recommendable. There are some decent animations.

There are many excellent things in this game: first, for me the best renders in this kind of games; second, the many "lewd options", that are very well done and are of various type; third, it's a funny game. Five stars are absolutely DESERVED. On the contrary there are some flaws: some characters make everyday the same things, regardless the evolution of the storylines; the path with some girls isn't well relized (i.e., Jennifer: maybe the best evolution, but "it falls from high", or Melanie, she makes the same two things, but we don't know nothing about her). In future I hope evolutions in the storyline with Evelyn (one of best characters in any game, maybe my favourite, even if I would have preferred she wasn't a family member), Jennifer and all the storyline of the whorehouse.

One of my favorite games on this site! I really like the characters in this game, as well as how it looks! Every character has a fairly unique characterization which makes their storylines very fun to explore. The absolutely stunning visuals were what made me check this out and the story is what made me stick around. After keeping up with the game for a while I have decided to give the game the appreciation it deserves. 5/5

Currently I only fully played the Evelyn path since its the most interesting one imo, so my opinion is mostly based on her path . A lot of these games usually fall into the problem of getting into the sex scenes way too fast, which results in the rest of the game being the characters just mindlessly having sex over and over, which gets boring pretty fast and leaves no room for any further development.

However, this game manages to not fall into this issue pretty well by not having the girls jumping into the guy in the first 10 minutes and actually doing a lot of build up before any sex scenes occur. That is usually my biggest issue with these games and since this one doesnt have this problem, for me it just deserves the 5 stars, gj.

Evelyn best girl btw.

Honestly? One of the best visual novels I have ever played. And I don't even like visual novels in the first place!

There's no grind, its just a step or two away, and the girls reward you along the way without spending 2 hours clicking away to only get a pump and dump in 5 mins. It's a motivation and I appreciate the devs for doing this.

I'm an amateur photographer as well and oh boy, I can't tell you how many times I have imagined and wished to do the things that the MC does here, at the risk of blowing away my female friendships. But this game takes the cake away, the routes although are quite linear with just only two ways, but the path to the end is still long and astounding, and yet very pleasing.

The character writing here is unlike I have ever seen or read before. I haven't finished playing the game (and I skipped a lot of the dialogues because its a porn game) but the female characters aren't some dumb hoes addicted on dicks and shit, they actually have weight, feelings, logic in them. Either you are going down the blackmail way or the romance way, it isn't for the sake of dialogue, but you know that this will affect them mentally and change their thoughts in the end.

The animations are good although they aren't many, but a game that's about photos fits quite true with a lot of good ass angles that will make a photographer like me jizz just by seeing those female character posing.

Bravo Moochie, I will support you once I got a job and thank you for this amazing game that pleased me so. Thank you.

Finally!! no sex after only 10 minutes playing like all those other games. It's much much better when it's not that easy. The characters are good too even when his mom is the standard 'mature' porn model, which means not mature at all and unreallistic.

It is a very entertaining game.

Felt a little one dimensional at first but after getting into the swing of things and how to progress certain routes it was very enjoyable! Some of the best renders in any game and some decent writing too.

Great game, great renderings, the dialogues is hilarious, and the NPC stories are great but just a few improvements to made to the story lag. Eg, at night the MC watches some hentais with Evelyn and they have intercourses, and the next morning she's afraid to show off in panties for breakfast. It's a little strange.
Congratulations

Photo Hunt was quite a suprise when you take a look at the rating. Personally I think it should be far higher for a number of reasons.

Regular updates that hit the point and you can always expect them to be on time.

Great renders with distinctive characters that don't look like something that you've seen a million times before.

Decent storyline, which isn't exactly the biggest strength, but it's solid enough to get your attention and your desire to know more (pun intended).

Honestly alot more people should take a look at it. Not to draw comparisons to other developers, but the popularity of Photo Hunt could be better. The developers deliever on a regular basis and there's a pretty good foundation already.

Positive: Beautiful renders, functional UI

Negative: unlikable MC, unlikable father, unlikable mother, detestable sister.

To be fair I couldn't get past the first few minutes, so it might get better further in, but I could not find the willpower to continue...

I will try to get back to this later and change my score if needed.

This game should be looked at by people interested in developing open world games in the future.

• The renders and animations in here are next level, all characters have realistic facial expressions and unique personality.
• The UI is convienent, this game completely skipped the "map" some other games do and just decided to show you images of the places you can go, althrough I would appreciate if it showed names in the images for my bad memory.
• The way you can pass time without going to your room and napping or some other thing like other games is so nice.

Critizing this is hard but I think the phone UI/messages kinda look bad, it doesn't look like you actually recieved a message when you do, sort of unimmersive. Also, like I mentioned pictures alone are not enough to recgonize all the places, icons or names would help greatly.

This is one of the best games here. So much visual and they are all stunning. One thing maybe to criticize is that the eyes are a bit wide and there are too many girls. Events are interesting and the story is wonderfully exciting.

I will edit my review when we can finally bang the Mum.
Evelyn want the D so bad, why can't we just give it to her? She is not the Holy Grail. She is not the Sacred Cow. She is a super hot MILF, and deserves some sexy time. Maybe when she gets black out drunk, she slips and falls on the D? Anyway just really frustrated with that in an otherwise pretty good game.
Edited my review since Mum is now bangable. Still not a 5 star as it should have happened much sooner, and the game has lots of other issues, but at least that's not one of them anymore.

I am amazed at how much I enjoy this game. I usually don't like a game with a lot of grind, but this one seems to balance the grind with the tease very well. Plus, the renders are top notch... and I mean top notch. There are hardly any bad renders in the entire game and that's saying something.

Moochie has somehow balanced a cartoonish, lighthearted quality with a realistic look and feel.

The only cons I can come up with are related to the game play. Next steps and hints are not obvious and you can get caught in long grinding cycles without really making any progress.

Of course , my biggest complaint is there is the incest. Normally I just skip these games but this game is so highly rated I gave it a chance. I don't understand incest but I get that it's a fetish and who am I to judge, but it's not for me. It is the only reason I did not give it 5 stars.

A really great game. A lot of work and attention to detail has been put into it and it shows.

The best game in quantity of content, besides having good animations and great characters, it takes a while to start having real content, but when it starts there is a lot, so it is a great option for those who have patience for a few hours of preparation

So here is my "Professional" Review of the game. And Im going to be honest as games go this one runs well and the art is nice. Now while thats said the game struggles harshly in the one aspect it really shouldn't, and thats sex. This game is devoid of the good stuff and thats why im giving it 2 stars. Ill watch the game a bit more, id just like more stuff up front at least.

Also this game focuses on the mom a lot and she isnt that interesting.

TL;DR 2/5 lacks porn

Good music, interesting characters, well written dialogue and I really liked the cg, artwork and animations. The gameplay, locations, multiple routes for characters and so many events are also very good.
I look forward to further updates.

it's one of those game where grind is not endless it's tasteful. characters have real depth. renders are superb. sandbox gives you the freedom of playing around freely and ignore other girls if you want to. only downside is game doesn't update quickly but eh it's probably my selfishness. i want more dammit! must play!
