    Good game.
    Has a lot of fap-worthy moments.

    Has a lot of weird strange stuff as well though. Like that old wrinkly dude. Just remove him from the game completely imo, if you have the NTR switch off.

    Also I think the chapters should have a more "smooth" overlap, instead of needing to do every single event of every chapter before being able to move on.
    Personally I wasn't interested at all in the redhead, but was still forced to do her content.

    Decent game. Not amazing, but definitely not bad either.
    Looking forward to playing it again, in like a year or two, when it has more content. I actually played this version through from beginning to end, but I wouldn't recommend this game per se.

    Developer did a good job. Better than I could ever do. Again, good game, but not excellent.
    Worth a playthrough, with a bit of space-bar spam at times.

    Just Awful, most of the females look like they were ripped straight from a 13 year olds wet fantasy. Ever single character is shallow and uninteresting the fact that you are forced to interact with all of them isn't helping, the jokes dont land 9 times out of 10. Everyone makes the exact. same. face. everytime they orgasm, and Catherine is one of the most annoying fictional characters I've ever seen. Complete waste of time.

    From renders to writing, to design absolutely stellar work.

    Animations are well done, there is deliberate design behind how you progress, and the built-in gallery saves you from needing to make 50 saves.

    This is a passion project with a high quality standard.

    Spectacular game, all-time great.

    Renders - 5/5 - clearly a lot of effort is spent on making this game look top tier; plus gorgeous, curvy, well-rendered women

    Animations - 5/5 - fantastic, and there are lots of them

    Script - 5/5 - hands down the funniest game that I've played...legit laughed at loud at parts; nonstop wordplay and pop culture references; absurd scenario, but it develops at a healthy pace

    Gameplay - 5/5 - essentially a visual novel in the form of sandbox-lite interface...guide on the side is helpful for keeping track of how many events you have to trigger to finish each chapter

    Okay, just finished everything released so far in this game (V0.7) and I Have to say, this is one pretty high quality title. Damn good renders (and quality animation when it is used), fun characters, enjoyable writing, and a pretty nice length of content per release. The one thing that it does better than the vast majority of games I played though (visual novel and otherwise) is the humor. It wasn't that funny in the beginning, but the last couple chapters were so hilarious that I was laughing out loud at many many scenes in them. The only negative I can think of is that there are almost no music in it. Overall, great work and I am definitely looking forward to more :D.

    This is really top quality stuff!

    The writing is fantastic, really a cut above the average. It's rare in a game that I don't get the urge to skip on through the text. Sure, the author lays it on thick with the jokes now and again, but that's way more preferable than plain old bad writing. And the jokes are genuinely funny. It's not often you get chances to feel aroused and amused at the same time!

    Another great thing about Power Vacuum is how the author plays with VN tropes. Here's a dev who knows the genre, and isn't afraid to poke holes in some of its more questionable elements. This, however, is never patronising or holier than thou, and really does make you think why so many games just seem to gloss over such issues. All while padding out a great story! Great stuff.

    The renders and character models, while not tip-top perfect, are original and good-looking. The characters themselves are great too, well-imagined and believable (as far that goes in games like this).

    All in al, Power Vacuum is a great project and well worth your time!

    WAY TOO MUCH UNNECESSARY DIALOGUE DURING CONVERSATIONS! It feels unnatural. Every scene they keep talking/joking about random stuff, whether they're doing something or not. It's refreshing ocasionally, but too much makes the scene less impactful and somewhat annoying. Most of the dialogue doesn't contribute to the story at all, it's hard to stay on track. I'd rather the conversation reveals a little backstory of each character instead. During one scene the mom was trying to be sexy, dancing for the MC, they had a random conversation like they were having coffee or something. STOP TALKING, that just kills the mood. I get that the creator is trying to flesh out the characters and keep the dialogue interesting, but it's the wrong way of doing it. This is just mindless conversation. Hopefully it gets better in future updates.

    Now with the biggest problem out of the way, the story was a little different but still generic and boring, hardly tells a story honestly. The character designs were great and unique and the scenes were very good, prob the biggest positives about this game. I do like the little NTR option for those who loves corruption and it's written in a way where they're avoidable which is also very nice for those who don't like it, just wish some NTR scenes were longer because some are cut before the good stuff happens. MC is a nice guy/borderline wimp. No options in choices really other than do you want to see NTR or not. If not for the walkthrough, I'd have a hard time playing this game. It's usually how it is with sandbox games, which i personally don't like. The game is overall pretty decent, it's worth a playthrough just to see the scenes and unique character designs.

    Art: 5/5
    Characters: 5/5
    Story: 2/5
    Progression: 3/5
    Content: 4/5
    Enjoyment: 2/5 (too much unnecessary dialogue)
    Overall: 3.5/5

    Loved this game. The girls are beautiful and the writing is hilarious. The developer should warn in the description that futa/trans content is a tag almost inexistent. I almost skipped this game checking the tags (not big fan of futa/trans).
    Character development is superb. At the start, the game has female domination tendencies, now male dom. FUCK YEAH.
    Excellent game, keep it up, dev.

    I started this game at the 0.7 mark. As far as sex goes, it is a bit slow. However, the script is hilarious. It's like if Tony Stark wrote a porn game. I am in chapter 3 and I am looking forward to reading the rest. If you are going to write a slow progression, then this is the way. I am laughing so hard while I wait for more sex. I wish I could get together with this writer and create many porn game together. This is one of the best written games I have read so far and I still have 4 more chapters to read.

    Amazing writing, very humourous.

    I love the fact that the storie don't take itself too seriously, with long and dramatic events, is just pure fun with touches of absurd humour. The game play it's easy and fast, doesn't have long and pointless free roam events, it gets really fast to the point. Also, the renders and animations are top quality and the models, very visualy attractive.

    One of my favourites.

    Great renders. Original and interesting story. Utilizes (kinda) unique meshes so I'm not playing the same guy banging the same girls. A little repetetive, but absolutely no grind, so there is only progress, which is a very good sign considering that it took me a while to play, AND it's only incomplete! *chef's kiss* Magnifique!

    Power Vacuum is just great, the writing is funny, hilarious even, to the point where it would hold up on it's own, even without the porny elements. Talking about the porny elements, they are amazing, well animated and hot. Honestly, this is easily my favourite porn game and I eagerly await every update like a small child waiting for his father to come home with milk. Thank you WWG and godspeed.

    awesome game, good story development and overall nice dialogues, the protagonist is teased a lot and that is all im gonna say as it is gonna spoil the story for most people, and the review box needs improvement as we cant see the number of words we've written and im just filling the box just to post my review

    Played version 0.7. The story is not so much strong as entertaining. The writing makes it very enjoyable; there's a lot of humor and wit. Characters are nicely fleshed out, with clear differences in dialogue.
    Renders are very well done with some great animations.
    Strongly recommended!

    Reviewing at 0.7 release. The writing is solid with a humorously sardonic wit. The models look great! The animations could use a bit of work. Once I got used to the hint system, it became less repetitive. Overall the game is both entertaining and sexy.

    Not going to write a book here - this is, by far the funniest adult game I've seen or heard of . It's a must-play:

    - The dev's sense of humor is funnier than 90% of the comedy you can find on TV, and the scenarios are hilarious.

    - The launching-point of the story is trite - "estranged, wimpy son returns to mom's and sisters home and sexy hijinks ensue" but the way it's executed - the linear flow of the story and the comedic way it's told - is engrossing.

    - The renders are very, very good and the sex scenes are good overall.

    - The characters, even the MC, are relatable and "speak" like normal humans would.

    TLDR: the funniest sex game in the world!

    This review is 0.7 of Power Vacuum!

    Where to start really, I decided to try the game because I liked how the renders on the front page looked, then as the game went on apparently the developer learned some things because they got even better looking from there. I love that as the game and story progresses your character changes physically, which really brings a whole other level to this game. As you're working out you start out a scrawny little teenager, morphing in to a ripped giant cocked teenager. The story is extremely witty all throughout the game, and apparently the developer isn't a retard because he was using some pretty big words along the way, all while making me laugh at a visual novel which is kinda strange but good none the less. I think my only issue with the game as is right now is no vaginal penetration with any family members, plenty of cunnilingus and blowjobs, plenty of vaginal with non family members. But apparently they're hesitant to take the cock where it counts, still giving this game a 5 star because it is really fantastic as is and I am looking forward to future updates.

    Easily one of my 2 favorite games I've ever played from this site and I honestly cant pick a favorite it's like 1a and 1b but theirs a shitton of stuff I like about this game and I actually have no idea how to say all of it but ima try.

    First off I'm an android user and this game is one of the best Android friendly games, I've played a lot of games that have like special mechanics or controls that just don't transfer to android well and make it hard to play but this game is far from one of them. And I'm not tryna knock other games with special mechanics cause I'm sure on pc where it's meant to be played like that it's cool but this game for how simple and easy it is to play it doesn't make is feel any less enjoyable just cause it's easy.

    Another thing I love is the writing the actual story is really well thought out and the characters actually develop along with the MC. But for me the biggest thing I love about the writing is the comedy parts. This game is fucking HILARIOUS I absoulutly love it its one of the few games I literally just keep playing over and over again because it's so genuinely enjoyable too experience.

    Also that you can turn off NTR is huge for me I get that NTR is an original part of the game and some people enjoy it but the fact that you can just straight up turn it of for people who aren't into that thing and still get a very rich story is a huge selling point for me cause a lot of times games will have an option like that but because you turn off certain content you get less choices or see less things in this game it doesn't fell that way at all.

    I had to take a break from playing games for a little while but I had gotten back right when 0.7 released and I fucking loved it instantly I remember reading the line about the Washington football team and I actually fucking died my family was so scared that's how hard I was laughing this game is just incredible and honestly 5 stars complelety understates how much I love it.

    had zero expectations just liked the art turned out to be one of the better ones I've played and the ntr was done in a very clever and humorous way, not forcing you into a cucking like most games do with it
