Unity - Rick and Morty - A Way Back Home [v4.2] [Ferdafs]

Hmm... What a hard game to rate with the remake out, R&M Another Way Home. I think this has aged well. I played both back-to-back for the first time over the course of a few hours.

Here's my take

The Good

• You have more agency in this game as you choose where to go
• The sandbox and items help add to immersion
• The writing is great, and dialogue feels ripped from the show, right down to the 4th wall busting
• The remake, AWH is arranged so you don’t miss events, but I prefer this game as AWH’s gameplay is just pressing “Enter” to move through dialogue without the freedom
• Amazing art! The dedication is there!

The Bad

• Some scenarios are too linear, and would like a little more freedom
• Sex scenes are just scene viewers… If you had autonomy over H-scenes like in Natsuiro, Bewitching Girl, or Teaching Feeling, this game would be perrrrrfect (I don’t know why the remake went through the trouble of redoing the game without doing this, but I guess it would never be completed if it tried).
• Some scenes are miss-able... which sucks. Another Way Home fixes this at a price (see above)
• Could use more animation
• You have no choice over your relation to the characters nor nicknames for them. In the remake AWH, you get those options... including QOL options like font and window transparency, scene selectors, whew... it's amazing. This version doesn't have such sexy options
• Both games lack music or sound. Sure, we all read with the voice actors living rent free in our heads (laughs in Chris Parnell) but would be cool if it had something, even grunts or dramatic sighs during a beat off

The Morty...
Yeah, this is a great game (and so is the remake). Like what I played, you’ll probably put hours in, and hours more on replay to get all the missables or paths. The sex scenes being only spectator events can get a little boring without you dictating the action, but as a VN-Sandbox this is not bad… and for fans of the show, this is the Stick of Truth of Rick and Morty at the moment (if the VR game is any good, my mistake).

Worth a playthrough! If you don’t care for sandboxes, try the remake AWH

So honestly this game is a 1 for me, but I don't really think that's a fair rating so I'm going with 3 as a compromise.

I know nothing about Rick and Morty. I've heard good things, my friends all love it, but every trailer I ever saw looked awful to me. All of the preceding two sentences also applies to Adventure Time, and one day I gave into peer pressure and watched one episode of Adventure Time (main character met some vampire girl). I hated it. HATED it. Couldn't find a single redeeming thing about it. So, all of that is to say that I don't trust my friends' opinions on shows and have never watched a single episode of Rick and Morty and never plan to.

But, I did decide to give this game a try. I did not care for it at all. I found the writing confusing and unfunny, I found the characters grating and annoying, and I found the sex scenes wholly unsexy.

"But Bugbear32! Of course you aren't going to like the game if you haven't ever seen the show!" And that's a fair counterpoint and exactly why I am rating the game a 3 instead of a 1. I will also point out that I have never seen a single episode of Danny Phantom, Kim Possible, Fairly Oddparents, Loud House, and a number of other shows, all of which have h-games based on them that I have enjoyed despite my unfamiliarity with the source material. And that is the reason that I am leaving a rating at all. Because it is possible to make good h-games based on existing properties that can be enjoyed by a wider audience.

The game to me is top quality and you can I am enjoying the play through and adult story line. It gives the viewer/player a lot of the in joke references to the series and stays faithful to it. I would love to see this continue.

my favorite game here, maybe i haven't played every other game, but i played a lot, and this is by far the best for me.

what can be said about it - art, art and art, it's like it's been drawn by rick and morty creators themselves. so when you add a kink to already established, well known and loved characters, it's already a winning combo, but you also get the writing that is imaginative and 100% rick and morty-esque, the universe that is vast and the sex scenes that are hot. superb.

I liked this game very much but but please Beth and Morty love story continue please and send updates soon and my favorite character Beth and Morty I like Beth I want to see Beth and Morty's child please can you do this I am a big fan please and want to see Morty and Beth as husband and wife please Beth and Morty love story love this game

Truly a masterpiece. You don't need to be a fan of the TV series to find this game hilarious and entertaining, I'd never seen it before I played this game and it's so good it got me to start streaming it...

I could spend all day writing about how amazing this game is, but so many others have already done it better than I could. Just download it and strap in for the ride!

Deceptively good. Hours of content (as of 3.7c)

I went into this expecting another low effort parody but I was blown away by this game for a number of reasons. First, the art is a dead-ringer for Rick and Morty's style. Second, although the story starts with the established cast, it does flesh out a few of the minor characters from the show. It adds an adorable female version of Morty from an AU. It writes the family into places that are both humourously close to how they'd act in the original series and also original to the incestuously depraved AU the author is creating.

I had so much fun with the episodic storylines in this game and I think the author is pretty damned good at erotica too.

If there's one thing I'd criticize this game on, it's that there's a lot of repetition on content--especially scenes that lean into the "did we just make a baby?" intrigue. As someone with an impregnation kink, I don't really mind it, but I would gladly trade a few of the pregnancy risk scenes for scenes that either hit a different kink or progressed the pregnancy kink (confirmation of the pregnancy, sex while pregnant... or, hell, it's Rick and Morty, you could even "science" the baby to full term and get started on the next one).

I'd highly recommend this whether you'd seen Rick and Morty or not.

This game is true to the show IMO. The writing was good, there were a few jokes that had me seriously laughing hard. I wouldn't mind having a better save/load interface. The game also plays better on android than it does on my pc. It feels like it was made for a phone/tablet. This is one I will play again for sure. My favorite scene was being tricked into skinny dipping in the hot tub.

Characters look hot and the plot is good and well structured. Game is of ideal length, has decent variety of locations, and enough female characters - 5. It does not take too long between scenes, and is quite easy to navigate. Especially loved how I could play the game after a break of many days without having to rack my head over what I'm supposed to be doing next. It was good, but felt too softcore for me personally. Only catered a lot for foot fetish and a single peeing scene. There could be a more user friendly save menu.

I played Night Mirror's RenPy version but credit where credit's due, to the original work.

I had never watched a single episode of Rick and Morty before, but the game is so good it made me start watching
The drawing and the story are both excellent and creative, and it all seems like a natural extension to the TV show. Most of the characters have personality and are attractive (that being said, Beth is the Queen of them all), that gives many reasons to enjoy the game and return to it. Also there is a lot of different fetishes so something for everyone to like!
But that's also linked to the only negative of the game, that is the false options of skipping content. You don't actually continue the story having taken a different approach, your character did what you decided to skip, you just didn't witness it and are pushed forward to the debriefing of the action you skipped. That's a bit of a turnoff at times, because if you choose to skip some content it is that this concept is a turnoff for you. But that's not a big deal to me.

5/5 Thumbs up for a great work! One of the best games I have found on f95.

A funny story, which is what you want from a Rick and Morty parody. Lots of references to the show, but with some original ideas aswell.

Not the best writing, but fun to play. Pretty good, graphically. Not quite to the standard of the show, but not bad at all.

Overall, very well done. It is clear that Ferfdafs is trying to add every kind of scene with every character. The animations and illustrations are great quality.

I only have a few gripes: You can't skip, mindblowers (scene replay) often trails behind the actual content in the game, and these things make the game kind of drag on. These are mild complaints given the quality of the game you are getting, however.

Got to say I did not know what to expect when trying this one out between my go to games on here. Having said that this is truly a magnificent game and a whole lot of fun to play. I cannot wait for the next update as this has quickly found a way into my top ten and love the game. Stay Morty stay is all I’m saying

The art and character design for this game are amazing looks just like the show the H-scenes are well draw and the animated ones are well animated the only bad things are the objectives are kinda wocky in the phone but the dialogue is well written and the use of characters is superb definitely check out this game ansd support the creator if you can looking forward to future updates

This is a very good and well made game in my opinion. I have played many porn games like Innocent Witches, Amity Park, The Babysitter, Summertime Saga and many others, and yet this game is my favorite of them all. The art is very good and I have not encountered any bugs though there are some people that have. The only bad thing about the game is there is no skip and back option, so if you want to view one particular scene you have to spam the mouse or spacebar button. All the good things about this game are more than the bad things so this game gets a 5/5* rating.

[v3_1]
Ok first off, full disclosure: I played Night Mirror's Ren'Py Remake version of this game. Maybe it's wrong of me to post my review here, but honestly credit where credit is due and Ferdafs is the creator, not Night Mirror.

Now with that out of the way, lets get to the review.

Ho-lee-shit. This was not what I was expecting. There's so much to say I don't even know where to begin. Bear with me here.

I must be honest it took me a while to even notice this game and if it wasn't for Night Mirror's remake I probably would have never played it. The original Unity version doesn't have a stellar score and i rarely download games with this much criticism in the reviews. However, if you look closely you'll see that the reason people score this game a 3 or lower is pretty much exclusively due to the engine and its limitations, or the nature of the sandbox-style gameplay. Night Mirror's Ren'Py version fixes all of this, and even adds some extra polish on top.

Another reason I didn't give this game a try earlier was that it was based on Rick and Morty. The thought of Morty banging Beth felt really odd and off-putting to me. I used to believe that the cartoon style and comedy of the original R&M wouldn't lend itself to a porn parody but my god was I wrong.

It kinda also felt like sacrilege to be taking one of my favorite TV shows and twisting it into porn. I consider Dan Harmon and Justin Roiland to be comedic geniuses and I had a preconcieved notion that anything based on their work would just look like a pale shadow in comparison. Again, boy was I wrong.

The writing and storytelling in this game is so skillfully done that there's barely any difference between this game and the original series. Ferdafs keeps riffing on the original, adding extra twists and comedic inserts which fit this universe amazingly. Small things like "Mister Mesex" (Yes spelling. It's a porn joke), The car administering "stress relief". The Devil's cursed item shop, How the Gazorpazorpians talk. The list could go on but I'm not gonna bore you. Just know that if you like the original R&M you'll probably like this game too. This is absolutely no small feat by Ferdafs.

I fully believe that Ferdafs could easily take a spot in the original R&M writing team. That's how good he is.

Ok with that out of the way, let's move on to the porn section:

This game's sexual content is truly unique. Ferdafs introduces some rarely seen fetishes (along with some standard well-known ones) and my god does this guy get me. Playing as evil rapey Morty was truly an interesting experience. And we're not talking your standard JRPG rape scenario where the victim discovers she she really enjoys it. The asshole route is truly vile in a way I had never seen before. In a good way. Everything in the lewd game category nowadays is pretty much the same, with repeating concepts and story progression but this game does it differently. It really breaks the mold. It's intelligent, decadent, perverted and funny.

Amount of content:
At least 14 hours of gameplay. It's a massive project with a metric fuck-ton of content.

Visuals and sex scenes: Smooth and hot.
Ferdafs took the original cast and made them hot. Bigger titties. Hourglass shape bodies. Huge dick Morty. It's great! What more can I say? The scenarios break from the standard mold in a refreshing way. Morty "slipping it in" and creampieing mom and sis was hot as fuck.

I'm a sucker for creampie scenes and Ferdafs really gets me. This game has the hottest creampie scenes bar none. So If you're into that sort of thing then you need to play this game! Right now.

If you're into things like feet, pregnancy, maledom, virgin/deflowering, cucking, femdom, sleep abuse and genderbending then you'll certainly not leave disappointed either.

If there's anything to criticize then I guess that would be that the character models in the sex scenes can sometimes be vastly different than what their sprites look like. Morticia is the most jarring example of this. When viewed up close she has a rockin' body but the sprite shows her as an unassuming plank.

Ok this is getting wordy so I'll try to end it. It should be obvious by now that I'm massively impressed by this game and its sexual content and if any of the tags appeal to you, or if you like R&M in general then you need to try this game.

10/10

And Ferdafs if you're reading this, please for the love of God consider a collab with Night Mirror to make Ren'Py the main engine going forward. It's so frickin' good.

Great scenes and artwork that sticks with the source material. I always perk up when I see an update has been released! In-game quest tracker could use some fine-tuning, but that's my only complaint.

Rick and Morty is a famous series many people fell in love with and I know quite some folks out there who find Beth hot - art and personality.

Ferdafs now gives us the game everybody dreamed about. For me it counts as one of the best - if not the best - parody game on this site. It got its flaws but all in all it excells in ways many other parody games do not.

These are:
- Great art and animations
- Nailed the art style of the series
- Nailed the character personalities, the humor and the Universe around
- awesome corruption arcs with a great pacing
- Plenty of content and great kinks

Ferdafs managed to do something most parody-like game developers do not manage to achieve - he actually established an art and animation style that feels exactly the same like in the series. Same is with the character personalities. You really feel like you are in the Rick and Morty Universe doing all the forbidden things that came to your mind. And boy - you can do a lot as the game features a lot of content and a variety of different kinks.

While Feradfs manages to excell in what I wrote about above, he has a major problem with the following aspects:

- very bad gameplay mechanics
- broken engine and tools ("Cotinue from last patch" never really worked as well as the "Mindblowers" (Gallery)

While so many things are done great those two little aspects really made the game unplayable for me. You could not comfortably watch the scenes you wanted to watch again before jumping into the new content from the next update. And you could not start the new content because you had to play through the last few new updates as well. This would not be that bad if the gameplay wouldnt be that annoying and troublesome. But the phone (the hint system) doesnt work that well and you are wasting your time replaying a point and click system that is no fun - at least for me.

But even though with all these flaws I would still give the game 4 to 5 stars because art, story arc, cooruption arc, characters, content and so many things are just so good!

Still - the gameplay really fucked me up - so I was really happy when NightMirror released his fan made-remake of the game, which is mostly a ported version (instead of Unity he uses Ren'Py which makes a lot more sense for the very linear way the story is told).

If you have the same experience, go check out the fan-made version: Rick and Morty: Another Way Home

I really hope Ferdafs is good with this because this actually showed me how good the game and its content is. I almost forgot it a bit due to beeing annoyed by the bad and inconvenient gameplay.

So I really hope both devs stick to their plans, finish what they are doing - maybe in a better dimension even start working together and we get to see the best adult parody game ever created.

A thousand thanks to feradafs for his brilliant work and effort. Hope this story goes ever on and on and the content never stops coming! Geeezz...

Pros

• Stays true to original show, idiosyncrasies pulled from the show for instance
  
  
• Good writing
  
  
• Humour
  
  
• Decent english
  
  
• Good 2d-animations, not from the beginning though.
  
  
• Rare fetishes, ie rape (that the victim isn't secretly enjoying), water sports and so on

Cons

• Really low quality art in the beginning of the game.
  
  
• Very few choices and after main plot is forgotten, the only choices are about if you want to see a certain scene or not.
  
  
• No gaming aspects. Would be ok if there were choices, but there really aren't.
  
  
• Main plot forgotten mid game.
  Spoiler: spoiler

  This in turns leads to a number of things that lower the quality of the game.
  
  
• No direction to the story after the main plot is forgotten, things just happen for no discernable reason.
  
  
• Sexual behaviour and character of MC is switched completely after main plot is forgotten. The MC goes from being dominant, assertive and rapey to being submissive, shy and fearful, actually turning down sex for fear of exposure rather than instigating it to the point of raping unwilling females, as he did when he was dominant and rapey. To be fair, the submissive, shy and fearful personality suits Morty from the show, but it doesn't jive with the first part of the game.
  
  
• Central fetishes are droped mid game, due to above mentioned change in MC character/behaviour. In the first third of the game, every instance of vaginal or anal sex is possible to partake of in the form of rape (and one is only achievable through rape). After that, rape no longer remains as an option for any sexual encounter.
  
  
• Low sexual content to non-sexual content ratio, especially after the main plot is forgotten. Relative low sexual content is acceptable in the beginning of a game where the MC is establishing sexual relationships and building his/her harem. But as the game progresses and the MC achieve said relationsships, sexual content should pick up. In this game, it slows down instead, probably due to the changes in the MC character mentioned above.
  
  
• Plot device, curse of ever growing cock forgotten, even before the main plot is dropped. No explanation is given. Would have worked fine with the premise in early parts of the game (dominant and rapey MC, not overly concerned with how the sex feels for the women he fucks), but probably less so with the aimless premiss of the later parts of the game.

Be aware if you're starting this one just for fun.. fap - the story might just suck you in.
The writing is on par with the comic book series (not the porn one). Heavy story focus on human relations making it resemble first few seasons of the TV show and the whole story so far feels like a whole season of it.
But developers still manage to break all expectations. Great art (althought limited), animations, story (no broken english and only a few typos).
One draw back is the lack of any sound (bring your own progressive rock soundtrack).
