VN - Ren'Py - Radiant [v0.7.1] [RK Studios]

The best incest VN i have ever played....
Very good story , Great visuals,nice characters, and beautiful li
My focus is olivia and allison and i found them both great..
Personally i love that there is no forced scenes and that finally i found a good vn without any forced lesbian content or other fetishes.
Overall its a very good Vn and i enjoyed it a lot

My review as of 0.6.1:

The game is definitely good, i really enjoyed it. I appreciate a lot of the options the dev provides, and the story and dialogue between characters is pleasant and concise. The art and the animations are great and props for making "The Event" on CH6 long and varied enough for it to feel special, as it should.

That being said, my experience is different from those that started following this game since 2020. If i had to wait 4 years to get to the point we are at, i would have probably given it a different rating. I'm not saying "Boo Dev slow!" or anything like that, but the choice to have this many side characters and subplots introduced has definetly made the game feel a lot slower due to the Dev/artist having to render all these new things that have yet to bear fruits.

If my experience with other games is anything to go on, this is a recipe for disaster and it will culminate in the Dev losing interest a couple years down the line tired from all the complaining and rush an ending never getting anywhere with most of these subplots (or the game being abandoned).

Moments like this is when you need to learn to play to your base, the majority of the people that will play/pay for this game are fans of the in'est genre and are here for the development of the relationship with the main girls. Which takes "time" or otherwise it would feel rushed, but that "time" is in-game time, not necessarily irl time, if instead of spending in game time dealing with subplots like (which is not a diss to those characters btw and i don't count since they serve a purpose to the main girls story) the game would spend more time focused on the main girls, then development of their relationship would be faster without feeling rushed, and the game would feel more focused.

This point becomes more relevant considering the Psyche options and the different routes one can take, which just makes the scope of the game bigger and the end blurrier and further away.

I know this is all hindsight so my recommendation would be focusing on what has currently been shown, avoid anymore subplots and don't forget the main plot for the sake of novelty or spurts of inspiration. You guys are doing great so far, it's just the speed of story progress that seems to be the biggest issue, so keep it focused and i'm sure the game will end up being great.

My only personal complaint about Radiant was that every woman who encountered the main character immediately wanted to have sex with him for no reason whatsoever. I know this is common in harem games, but in the case of Radiant it was a bit too much for me. After the prologue, the main character meets so many woman he could potentially have sex with without any effort that I couldn't pay any attention to the story going on in the background. The game doesn't even give you time to breathe. You can't think about your choices and their consequences or feel any attachment to the characters you meet. Because all the characters you meet are only interested in how handsome you are or how big your dick is. So you can't make a choice by caring about anything about them. They are just hollow shells who want to join your harem and with whom you can have sex. There are many aspects of the story that don't make a lot of sense or are not believable, but I don't want to write it down because it's a spoiler.

[Reviewed v0.6.1]

For a game that was initially posted nearly 4 years ago (April 2020), it has lost some of its shine, but if you are looking for a slice-of-life incest game, this is a solid choice. It is reminiscent of a number of other titles that have been popular over the last few years but doesn't rise above them.

The Good ()

• Diversity of love interests with different personalities and overall looks
• Renders still mostly hold up despite use of older models
• A good number of H-scenes with the main and side characters
• Relatively sensical narrative build-up / progress (for the genre, anyway)

The Not-So-Good ()

• Main LI personalities are a little blank and generic
• There is a growing web of side characters that is getting hard to keep track of
• The story is not especially interesting -- the main drama comes from the expectation of an impending moment when different LIs may find out about each other

This game is good, not great -- and there are similar titles which have done this theme better.

+ good sex scenes, mc is experienced and know his stuff, girls no need to tell him what to do or lead him like some newbie. He is also like to giving pleasure to the girls, it's not all about him
+ first time with Olivia is really well done, everything is focused on her pleasure - i love that
+ pussy-eating scenes
+ music
+ beautiful girls, they are interesting, not a boring dull characters without any personality
+ mc is ok - assertive gentleman who treat girls with respect if you are on "good route", he is not a typical to this genre pathetic soyboy.

it's a slow burn. Im personally not a big fan of them, but in this game is really well done. 5 stars from me, wish i found this game earlier.

Had a lot of potential, but some of the later version have added really creepy and gross content, on top of not really progressing the more interesting plot points. Renders are nice but slow development on top of what I previously mentioned would put this in the SKIP category for me.

I love harem games and this one is one of the best.

Beautiful renders, big variety of stunning LI's, cool MC not some weak wimp.
Very good animations, hot sex scenes.
Intresting and wholesome story. Nice music.
Multiple choices, no forced interactions with LI's.

Overall great harem game, a rare gem in this genre.
5/5 Keep up good work and looking forward for more!

This is one of the best games of it's kind. No wonder that many AVN developers tried to copy the game's formula but none of those AVNs are on par with this one. All the LIs are beautiful and there's a lot to choose from. The dialog is fun and not too wordily. I know that development is slow but each update is good and there is progress in the story. One of the best features in the VN is the dark mode. Not a lot of games go there. It's not for me personally nut kudos for doing this.

V0.5.2

it started well and then got forgotten or something, as it seemed to miss the updating page until certain times of year, like many others that crawl out of the woodwork at this time of year.

the plot is bland. no two ways about it. been there done that a plethora of times. nothing new to see here.

the writing is a little childish and not very fluid. it's the readable kind but not engaging.

the art, when last i played, some time ago, was good enough and though not great it was good enough to stand out as the quality of the project.

sadly, though not very for me, the game now has kids in it and i only come to this adult site for adult content so game is no longer viable or legal for me to have. deleted

Love the game not gonna lie. The setting, story, render and animation quality, the cute models, etc. But this dev is milking, at least this one, to honestly hilarious levels.
Ridiculously short updates delivered at an average of 7-10 months with the famous hiatus of 15 months a couple of versions ago.

Update 0.5 which is the result of 9 months of work is played in 1h where the story, yet again, barely progresses and it only has one very short and simple animated scene. Something we've been waiting for 3 years. Worst part of all is we know what this dev is capable of with the scenes of the first version of the game. So not only it is disappointing, but very sad to see the dev do a 180 and turn a project with passion into a bare minimum effort money milker.

Not sure if there really is more than one person in the team, but the Patreon alone is generating almost twice as much as my monthly engineer salary. To think 0.4->0.5 is the result of >30k€ is ridiculous. Will never understand how this dev can still have so many people supporting this project...

One of the VERY best games available. I would likely leave it at that if a review did not require more. There's just no notes I would have to make this game better. The women are amazing, you are not an asshole or a simp, the plot is good and you care about the amazing characters that you can interact with. What could be better? Definately one of the top ten on this whole site. The best most popular games I am not allowed to mention in reviews, this is on par with them in every respect. It's even relatively wholesome while being sexy as hell.

I break the visual appeal apart from the story/character appeal

Visually - art and animations - Alorth does as good a job as any dev out there and better than the overwhelming majority, by far. So this is maximum 50/50%

Story/Character - There is a an amazing opening with Grace. It is a bit express because you are catching up to the present. I wonder if a framing where the intro is noted to be flashbacks, would allow for more time and unimportant events to pass but I do not think that is a problem overall as stories often need to set up where you are and who you are in an expedited manner. Then they set up your current life, work, coworkers, friends, etc all still fine. The antagonist comes a bit soon, IMO. The intro to LIs from work and then the waitress also feel pretty fast. But then, the girls come into the picture. They are the locked in characters and you can reject the others so again the rush is not bad overall. I do wish some of the first days after we meet the girls was spent with them. Basically it does happen but I feel like it should have happened prior to some of the interrupting events. Overall the story suffers from some of this disjointed flow of events and timing but I do not have a clear opinion on how to rearrange it.

TLDR - Girls are great but flow and timing meh
30/50%

Combined I score 80/100% and therefore 4 stars

If you're a fan of immersive gameplay and captivating storylines, then "Fater Daughters" is a must-play game for you. The characters are well-developed and the plot is intriguing, making for an engaging and unforgettable experience. I highly recommend giving this game a try!

"I agree, and I understand the success of this game. It deserves all the stars given to it. I can't find any specific flaws; I love the progressive aspect, the teasing, and all the girls (ALL) are stunning and have distinct personalities. It's very well written; there's a good author behind it. It's challenging to argue because everything is excellent in all aspects, like a top-notch student. If we look into the details (although the gameplay concept is excellent!), it's just that in some choices, we can't really know where they will lead. What the author considers 'darkness' may be 'lust' for us, or what he sees as 'lust' might be 'romance' or 'darkness.' But not knowing is also good; it's not a significant weakness. No, I think the worst part is that the updates take too long to come, as there are so many possible paths in the story's outcome that we are left on edge at the moment when it becomes what we were eagerly waiting for. It's a shame to wait for years for progress, as by then, we may have moved on to other games. Discovering it fully completed would have been delightful, and it would have easily made it into my top 5. In the meantime, you can see that providing feedback on such a polished game is not easy. You really have to be picky not to like it because it has everything we want; it lacks nothing. Full of passion. Thank you for the game!

You are a guy that fell asleep at the wheel and ended up killing someone and then coma time for 18 years or something. Then you wake up and boom this chick you banged before coma was pregnant with kids and now they move in with you. Wacky stuff right. And yeah it is kind of except for the involuntary manslaughter part. "Ruh roh raggy invoruntary mansraughter, that is bad". Also your gf died of cancer. Dayum. Then the mom of the guy you killed comes to you and wants to... suck your cock? Wait what? Who does that? Yuck lady get some self respect

Yeah the story elements are not that good, so what is good? The 3 girls are good especially madison and the whole correction story line with elements of gaslighting and torture. That is good. In fact it is by far the best part. If you arent interested in that, I couldnt even recommend this to begin with. Manipulating madison into an abusive relationship is just fantastic. Then there are the other 2 girls. They are not as good as madison.

Also, the other two girls are a combination of too stupid and innocent to be best girl material. Especially the blonde girl, she spots you naked and she doesnt have basic understanding of biology or something. Is this girl mentally challenged? I cant be having sex with this woman, something has happened to her brain i believe this is not right, completely unethical and just plain disgustingly wrong no way not for me. Then there is the redhead girl and she is just basic woman, kind of gets attracted to you she is shy and all that but the dynamic just ends up being rather basic she is into you but ashamed of it. MADISON MOGGS ALL OVER THESE TWO. In personality and in the things you get to do to her. It just isn't fair. Madison supremacy reigns supreme.

Story, the things that happen in the story(oh no your neighbor hates you etc blah blah) are quite garbage. But Madison saves it. Needs far more Madison. Madison in a pillory, Madison in bondage gear, Madison naked in public Madison abuse 24/7 is my dream.

There is a very disturbing lack of Madison breeding currently in this. And taking into account this game is quite old, updates are slow and Madison has yet to get dicked. Not even once. It does pain my soul, but one can pray that in the future I will get the chance to do so. The process of turning the brat into the perfect wife is in progress but it has to be completed nothing else will suffice

The game is beautiful but it seems to suffer from a problem of not being able to decide on what tone it wants.

At times it's bubbly, chocolate wouldn't melt in its mouth then it goes kind of dark before jumping back and it's hard to find a rhythm because you don't know if the scenes going to end on a good note or not.

So the plot's like;

You start the game getting stood up. That's bad
You meet a cute lassie. That's good
You get in a fight defending her honour. That's bad
You run away and end up sleeping with her. That's good
Her dad finds you. That's bad
You escape. That's good
You're drunk though and end up crashing. That's bad
You end up in a coma. That's worse
You wake up. That's good
You can't remember anything. That's bad
Three girls turn up on your doorstep they're your kids. That's good
The lassie from before you can't remember died. That's bad
The girls are living with you now. That's good
They're your usual tropes of one being innocent, one being angry and one in the middle. That's bad.
You start to get to know them. That's good
Someone turns up at your door and says she's the mother of some guy you killed when you crashed all those years ago. That's bad
She doesn't kill you. That's good
Apparently your neighbour is a cop and hates you. That's bad

Like.... pick a lane... the issue with the neighbour isn't great either cause the MC makes a big deal of saying "who's this clown, he's not even on duty" then despite knowing this still hands over his registration and the like and answers all his questions like he's a little bitch. Like he's one step away from giving him a reach around. And then when he leaves the MC's all "this means war, I'm gonna mess him up" etc. Like sounds good maybe try to be that assertive when he's standing there.

It's a well developed game. The effort's been put in there but the tone is weird and it's going to really hold the game back the more it goes on. I'm not saying the game shouldn't have obstacles for the characters to overcome. It is a game after all, but it's hard to settle into and enjoy when there's a part of you wondering if in the next scene someone's going to get stabbed or get run over by a truck

Sometimes I want it to go faster, but that would cheapen the experience. This is top-notch writing and the pacing is perfect. Only thing is Allison starts out naked sleep walking but tapers off. The other girls stay in character. Perfect.

The game has a very nice story, although at a certain moment you don't like the behavior that...(SPOILER ALERT)... the protagonist has with his daughters, being a depraved. I don't like that this can be a fetish for some, what I don't like is that you can't decide not to be perverted with girls.

This game is beyond good. The girls (Olivia best girl), the story, the music, the images, the animations... everything is top notch. I look forward to continue playing this masterpiece. The incest makes it perfect.

Game started well. Writing was good, graphics were impressive, opening scene was fun. But the plot has stalled, and there haven't been any more scenes worth while. Last update had a filler arc just to pretend there was still sex in the game, with a character that was just introduced and made no sense whatsoever. I don't mind a slow burn, but the lack of updates and filler content just make it hard to even let the burn build up.
