VN - Ren'Py - Completed - Prince of Suburbia [v1.0 Beta] [ViM Studios]

I really think that this is one of the best 2d kinetic visual novels out there, the art it's beautifully done (there's the issue where the artstyle changes suddenly but nothing to worry about), the animations are well done, and the story it's interesting and well made.

Character Design: 10/10 (Chef's kiss)
Artstyle: 9.5/10 (Great artwork)
Storytelling: 7/10 (not a paradigm changer story, but its entretaining)
Music: 9/10 (Really good ambience)
Voice acting*: 8/10 (The moans in the sex scenes are not the generic ones and the sound design it's well made)
UI: 9/10 (i really liked that there's no way that you get lost, no grind, just pure linear story)

Overall: 9.5/10

I think that if you give game a chance you won't get bored of it, just disconnect your brain and enjoy the ride of being the Prince of Suburbia.

Played the full release version, still awaiting the ending/preggo DLC.

Pros:
- A gradual and fairly thorough rework of most character art assets. Sprites and CG’s look fantastic and highly consistent with one another.
- In conjunction with the rework of older art assets, animation increased massively in quality and gradually in quantity as the story went on. As PoS is a 2D title, PoS doesn’t deal with the same issues as animators do when working with 3d character models and rigs. I believe that the animations work by morphing and stretching a set of original drawings, which seems to limit the scale of movements the characters make during the lewd acts. This however is made up for by the smooth movements and the squishy and organic look of the girls.
- Pregnancy and breeding are simply tags I like.
- The characters, despite being influenced by the fertility drug, don’t turn into mindless bimbo fuckdolls as is seen in many AVN’s where they aren’t even influenced by drugs or magic. They retain at least a decent amount of rational thought.
Mehs and hit/miss:
- Despite my love of bountiful curves, the cast suffers from having frustratingly similar bodies, with only 1,5 out of 8 heroines being different from the rest. This is mostly a matter of boob size and shape, but other details like nipples and areola are also at fault here.
- I felt PoS could have gone a little further with the actual story content instead of wrapping things up after sprinting across the finishing line with a “mass breeding event” and nothing much beyond that. Maybe the DLC will add on a bit more. On the other hand, I can also understand why ViM Studios would simply like to complete their first title, learn their lessons and be able to focus fully on their second project alone for a good while before starting a third one.
- Not an outright bad MC by AVN standards, but certainly not an interesting one either.
- A few older art assets may remain in the early part of PoS, making for some inconsistency, but i wouldn't know if that is the case at this point.
Cons:
- The beginning of the story, writing structure and pacing of the first 1/3 of PoS is honestly lacking in quality. You wake up, decide to go somewhere, and meet someone, potentially with a lewd encounter of some sort, have some internal monologue and maybe, maybe not, have another conversation with some other character, before calling it a day and going to bed. This is how the first week or more feels like. As if the characters don’t have lives of their own and you only see what the camera would have seen in a B-porn movie. As I haven’t played the beginning parts for years I don’t remember if the dialogue is equally bad and makes the characters come across as robots instead of people.
- No player agency and the whole navigating around the world is a wasted and kinda bothersome mechanic. Small stuff, but still.

Nice graphics and sex scenes have some nice jiggle to them. Audio is quite good as well.
Bit lacking in the actual 'game' though as there are very few actual choices that affect anything, you just have to remember where you are supposed to go for the next scene.
Definitely one for the lover of humongous boobs

3.75/5 But I mark it the full 4/5 cuz I feel like it deserves a flat 4 more than a flat 3
Enjoyed to a point, then just felt like constant sex everywhere and Im not the biggest fan of that + I need time to rest irl but if I have to go elsewhere for that I'll probs forget about the game (which happened)
+Loved the art style
+Enjoyed the Characters
+Simple premise, felt there were no mistakes

-More sex than story, I know some will enjoy that fact but not for me

3.75/5 Good looking game to jerk it to

"I highly recommend this game! Although the storyline may be generic, the incredible art and animations make up for it. I truly enjoyed playing this game and believe others will too. Kudos to the developers for creating such an outstanding visual experience. Keep up the great work!"

Art is great ; gameplay and player agency is inexistent.

I don't understand why this game doesn't have the [VN] prefix. Is it because you have to click 1 to 3 buttons to progress from one scene to the next ?

Anyway, if you're just looking for an animated gallery with some kind of context for each picture/animation, this game will do that for you. I personally got bored and powered through the second half of the game just to see if the formula would evolve (spoiler: it did not). Don't expect relatable or touching characters, everyone is basically a braindead horny teen. The writing is decent but ... Flat. I don't know, this felt very underwhelming as a whole.

Not really a game since its 0 choices or anything, but one of the best VN's Ive played in a long time. Dont know how they made their animations, but they are really excellent and the writing is quite good too. Gotta find myself some games that use the same animations cus they made this game amazing

I really loved the 2d CG art, especially for the newer/remake scenes.
Some of the cg was not remade and doesn't fit unfortunately.

My main problem with the game is the characters. The stupid MC behaving as if he really lost the capability of thinking when he is aroused and impregnating woman left and right because it's inconvenient to tell about the medicine's effects.
Or the fact that everyone blames the addiction and the withdrawal symptoms. Well if the medicine has such strong side effects then maybe you should take it seriously and not treat it like some minor inconvenience that can be fixed with another dose.

Otherwise I liked the story and the characters and I certainly liked the scenes.

I'm rating the game for what it is. This is a linear VN with some clicking with nothing more than the silly ol' "clueless hero who every hot girl wants to fuck" plot, but that's OK! The characters are all stereotypical hentai NSFW games characters, and they look equally hot too.

This game does what it does and it does it well. The art is very good (as usual from the talented Scarlett Ann), especially if you love massive titties! I hope the creator will continue with this style in their new game if they are making any.

In the 2nd Part, there are also impregnation which is a big plus. This is a must-play for fans of big boobs, lactation, and impregnation.

+ Hot art, the girls are sexy. I am not a fan of tomboyish girl like the "aunt", but she's hot too.
+ Lactation, milk spraying, impregnation.
+ Animation is decent enough.
+ MC is the usual "pussy magnet with addictive dick" stereotype but at least he's not too annoying
- Some characters do feel shallow (for this type of game). I want to know more about the "sister's" friend.
- I wish there is a choice to impregnate specific girls instead of everyone.

the scenes are extremely good and i like the characters. the writhing though is pretty annoying, everyone is selfish and the main character just keeps blaming the pills. it feels more like a teenage fantasy than an actual scenario

Story- as a fan of simple harem games with alot of sex scenes i like what is going on here
Originality - good, not very unique but good
Renders - awesome
Sound - well, thats why i gave this game 4 of 5, u see dev, i like the sounds of this game but i think the sex sounds should be little longer, for example: slow speed sex, middle and fast but... can I explain more clearly, the duration of the sound track for each scene is too short, about 2-3 seconds or I’m wrong, this is of course my opinion, but it could have been a little longer to enjoy every moment, but still top sounds Dev
Playability - simple, just as i like it, who need to read some stupid story heh
Performance - awesome
Bugs - none
Animations - awesome!!!
Voice Acting - awesome
Grammar - i didnt read
Amount of content - alot

So much wasted potential in this one.
Even though it starts off very promising with ever increasing corruption of the Mom and getting some very nice early action with the sister there is just no sandbox interactions at all, which would have been very nice to get some more possibilities.
Later in the game it is just sex scene after sex scene but not in a good way since every scene is just boring vanilla sex with no foreplay and usually one position and one camera angle.
Models and animations are great, characters are very cliché but thats ok for a porn game I guess.
So in the end it's a 3/5 for me, with decent repeatables and a better designed sandbox experience this game would be an easy 5/5.

Lots of work seemingly went into it but I really didn't like this game.

Artwork is inconsistent, some scenes are good and some are drawn terribly (Sonia is the worst example of this, the artist clearly didn't know how half-shaved head looks like. at some point she looks like she's going through cancer treatment). the breasts on the characters are insane and make them all look roughly the same.

The story is so fucking stupid that I didn't know whether to laugh or to shake my head (did both in the end). it's a porn game, I get it, but for fuck's sake, it has to be at least a little plausible in order to be immersive. The writing, characters, dialogues - all entirely forgettable, non-coherent and plain.

It's not even good game-wise. The thing pretends to be a sandbox but it's absolutely linear without any freedom of movement. If your story is linear - fine, do a VN, and don't pretend like player's actions mean anything.

I haven't finished it and I don't think i will. Maybe it gets better later down the line - i doubt it somehow.

Really nice and Original art, it's a bit annoying to have a sandbox with no choices, I would have preferred it to be a VN but it's okay. It's a bit short and the characters seem to be one-dimensional.

Wonderfull, ill say it needs a few pregnant scenes but thats just my preference. Apart from that it is a really good game, whith nice desings, the story is kinda typical but thats expected, still you should give it a try.

Game is more like a story that has you click to proceed, but they is no custom game play; IOW, very linear and that can make a lot of games boring. If much of the animation wasn't top-notch I might knock the rating down a little for that. BUT, the newer animation in the game is SUPERBLY done and INCREDIBLY hot (even the older animation is good though), as I LOVE massive titties. I do usually have a flexible limit with that though - at some point I think titties can get too big, but good shape and the right softness and fluidity of motion (if an animation) can affect where the limit is. Sometimes artists will make massive titties that are too round or stand up too much like they have no weight and too firm for large tits and they just come off as poorly proportioned and stiff. Not this game - the titties in this game are massive, but have the right physics to them. Really hot. IMO, the biggest tits in this game are right at the borderline before I feel they get too big, but at that borderline is where I like them the most. Well done. WELL DONE.

As of the current version this is a 5/5 game especially those looking for incest harems. I played this when it first came out a while back and revisited it two years ago but there wasn't much progress. The new art, animation and writing make this top-notch for those looking for a simple fix of this genre of adult novels.

I've never written a review before on this site, and tbh I had no plans too, but then this game came along. Or to be more accurate, it got updated.

I first played this game in ~late 2021 and it was fine. Nothing really noteworthy, just decent visual novel with a bit of *ncest in it. But I had no idea how good this game had gotten in recent years, and that's basically why I'm writing this review. I don't think its average rating of about 3.5 stars as of the time of writing this reflects the state that the game is currently in. The updated art style is fantastic and there's so much more content than before.

This game is basically the complete package in my opinion--great visuals (and lots of scenes to go with them), good characters, great writing, and no overreaching/overachieving from the devs (they know what this is, and do it well). A lot of games meet the first 2 criteria, but for a porn game, the writing here is pretty damn good. It might not be erotica or even doujin/sex comic levels, but considering its a game it gets a pretty significant curve for me.

One of the only bad things I can say about this game is that the older H-scenes really do kinda stick out like a sore thumb, and even though they're not horrible, in comparison to the rest of the game they really are quite jarring to see. The other main thing is that there isn't exactly much "gameplay." You basically just click and never make decisions, solve puzzles, do minigames, etc. This might be a negative in some cases, but I think a lot of games can just as easily take it too far in the other direction, where getting to the good stuff is such an unnecessary slog. Everything in this game is concise, and due to the level of writing (and there not being too much of it) you'll always know where to go to advance the plot. Much better than mashing through boring, mandatory walls of text or having to do stupid little quests for a shred of rewards.

Anyway, if you haven't played this game in some time or are underwhelmed by the rating, or anything else, please take it upon yourself to play this game.

Wow, this one really should be rated higher. It has some of the best scenes, art, and animations of games that I have played. The plot is also steller with a focus on impregnating all the girls. Most games shy away from the pregnancy aspect, but this one really focuses on it. Love this game and can't wait for more content to be released.

I don't think I've seen such a gigantic improvement of not just script but the entire art direction improved. Animations are very well done for hand drawn. Keep it up. That score will be well over 4 stars soon. If you tried this game before the changes then be sure to check it out again.
