Ren'Py - Completed - Roommates [v1.4] [ititnenon]

Noice, one of the rarer versions of art available. We need more of games like this. ie. asian art style in 3d and not the usual anime 2d looking ones. This also has a unique storyline sandbox style instead of just a lengthy visual novel

Good game imho!
The graphics and animations are really good, a lot of attention to details (look out for reflections in mirrors or windows)
I'm not into asian women but those are cute and sexy and their choice of clothes is great (maybe it is only my kink but I love the stockings/pantyhose/yoga pants stuff )
Yes, it is a bit grindy but like in real life: no work no fun.
Until now it has no real ending(s) but maybe in the future...I will definitely follow this game and the developer

it is a decent sandbox game with relatively straightforward game play, the trouble is there's an element of grinding that really doesn't have much of a place in an adult game...I mean what is the point after seeing the scene already, then repeating just to get to the next scene? The game is also incomplete since some of the girls of interest doesn't have lewd scenes.

Review done at 22/Feb/2024
Game ver. 1.2

The game tends to cause bugs that freeze events and I had to resort to (online save editor) to move forward.

To be honest this game is not worth playing, since the scenes are always the same bodies with camera position changes, only the haircut and facial features change, also the characters that require more time have simple scenes which is very disappointing (it really frustrated me when I unlocked everything).
I don't know if I should give it a single star because I've seen much worse things.


As I always say, my criticism is in comparison to the games that are uploaded here.

It's a strange sandbox. On the one hand, all the necessary attributes are in place, but you have to go through the game almost blindly. Graphics - neither this nor that, with a stretch I will estimate it in 3 points from 5.

Immersiveness - 1/5.

Character development -1/5.

For me, as a fan of sandboxes, the game was a big disappointment. It's unlikely that fans of pure porn, who don't pay attention to the plot and characters, will be satisfied.

Honestly, I just don't know what audience I can recommend this game to. Probably none.

My score is 2 out of 5.

The language and the grammar in this game is bad and does not make sense at certain points. The game is also too grindy and unclear at times what to do in order to progress with a character. The graphics are not the best but it does not bother me too much.

So extremely grindy, the MC is a complete douche and the gameplay is utterly soul destroying. Which is all a shame considering the fact that the potential love interests are actually attractive, even if they have no personality to speak of ("You're so funny!" is the most conversation you will get out of them. All in all, extremely lazy and by no means a complete or tested game.

I've completed 100% in 1.0 few months ago.

Story is nothing, game play is just a normal sandbox
the attractive point is good looking Asian character and nothing more.

It's so disappointed to see the update.
The new render is so bad, all characters have a horrible face.

Just leave the game ended at 1.0. No more update needed.

Renders are ok , everything else is garbage. Like wtf the whole text is almost comepletly fucked up. Can't understand shit from it. If you want anyone to understand hire someone for translatolion or something it's absolutely ridiculous.

This game has average graphics and some nice renders. But still it is not really enjoyable. It is made a lot like china style and it is too much visible in the game. The characters are OK. The gameplay is horrible.

this game is just bad and disappointed.. story make no sense but if they made it easy for sex is okay, but dificult get some.. so much thing to do.. E.G u got sleeping pil but need certain time to put it in water.. eh feel grinding and bug where all sudden dialog write in Chinese.. i got no clue what it wrote..

Ren'Py - Completed - Roommates [v1.1] [ititnenon]
Great potential, disappointing result.

From the images, from the plot, from the beginning of the story, I thought it would be a great game, one of those with a structure that I like (increase relationship with characters little by little, while earning money etc), yet it is a game done badly and in a hurry. It would have been a good start to the game (first release of the project) but having seen the "Completed" I deduce that it is over here, so all the defects will remain forever.
Given the basis of this type of games, you have to add other things to not make the player bored, since basically you always have to do the same things. Well, this game failed to overcome that obstacle,
so it became boring and repetitive like few other games. Obviously the game lacks in other fields, such as music, which is not needed in some games, but here it would have helped to ease the boredom.
Too bad, I don't recommend the game.

Category: Visual novel, Dating Sims
Version: 1.0
Overall: 7/10

Pros: Good character design, pretty good graphic for virtual novel. Story is simple and straight forward. Average gameplay length. Easy difficulty for DatingSims type game.

Cons: BGM is missing, Lots of Eng translation bug, gameplay can be quite confusing. You need some time to figure out what to do next which is ok, but without a proper hint translation, you'll stuck at some point for hours. Also, some pointless grinding action to unlock next scene are a bit too much.

This game is very entertaining and very fun...to a point.

The only thing that really makes this not get five stars is that it really isn't complete, as there are many places that it was not translated into english, especially in the hints/tips area. I could forget it if it only appeared when talking to the girls and it doesn't matter, like when your character talks with a girl, your character says something (multiple speech lines, all of which is in chinese or japanese, not sure which) and then the girl replies "You are too funny."

The renders are top notch. The animation is real good, but sometimes choppy. Not sure if it because my system is very old or because of the game itself.

nice renders, nice alot of short animations, some unimportant text not translated, but you can reach every Charakter to vaginal Sex. I don't think, its finished, cause there is no anal as promoted in the game.

Models and animations are fine, but the game is a mega grind fest.
It gets boring pretty quickly.
Still, there is plenty of content. I give it a perfect 3/5. It's not too bad, but it just really takes too long to unlock anything and it's very repetitive.

Only good is renders
Story looked good from reading description but it's not that good
What annoys me most in this game is the Talking to the woman you get chinese text and woman respond how funny mc is And you have no idea if you done everything because later even hints are in chinese
Someone posted a full save and used that Sex scenes are nothing special either
This game could be good if it was translated added more woman and a real story
No bugs

As other reviewers mentioned, sure, you need to do boring stuff like level up your figure by going to the gym or have locations that are useless up to a certain moment in the game, but the game gives me what I like - the sense of progression.
Compared to dozens of other games where every girl instantly wants to fuck the MC for no real reason, this is something more believable.
And I also like how the night visits to the girls' bedrooms progress as your relations with them develop.
I'd give the game 3.5 at the moment. If it had complete/better translation and less grinding, it'd be worth 4 stars, so let it have them in advance.

Step 1. wake up, press skip time, click 5 doors to do required task, press skip time, press skip time, press skip time, perss skip time, can finally sleep,
Step 2. Repeat step 1.

Creator has zero creativity and forces you to repeat actions like time skipping multiple times per day, repeating activities like riding the bus and guiding yoga 5 times to progress to the next level of nothing.
