VN - Ren'Py - Sinful Summer: A Tale of Forbidden Love [Ch. 2.5] [Ruykiru]

Version Reviewed: Ch 2.5

Overview: Tee hee hee, I'm such a naughty sister

Story: If i tell you that this story is told from the point of view of a brother who is spending a summer with his horny sister and lonely mother you are probably already assuming that it's a standard sisterfucker, but this one has a twist. Instead of you corrupting all of the women in your life, you are being corrupted by your indescribably horny sister.

Another difference is that this is not a sex game, it is a teasing game. Except for one very brief bit in the middle the protagonist doesn't even touch pussy until the very end of the game. He gets a few blowjobs, handjobs, titjobs, thighjobs, and buttjobs, not to mention a decent amount of groping action and some voyeurism, but doesn't get past second base for pretty much the entire game.

Even the parts where you are theoretically lusting after you mom are pretty tame compared to what your sister does. Despite the sister's near constant seduction efforts the protagonist resists committing incest with his basic human decency. This is an admirable quality in a real life person, but an annoying one in a pornogame protagonist.

The writing is pretty hot, although it does spin the wheels quite a bit

Some parts get a bit weird. The sister character barely gets to third base with the brother but then the mom character shows up early and somehow manages to have a 100% success rate in cockblocking her for what we are told is weeks on end. They literally never figure out a way to sneak out and mses around? Not even when the mom goes out for groceries or takes a nap or anything? Then we are treated to a scene where she drags her brother to the window directly outside of where the mom is cooking and strips naked to start sucking his cock. Then I realized what is going on. The sister has an incest fetish, but also a getting caught fetish. She is only interseted in getting it on if the mom could bust them at any time. The brother, already lukewarm on the incest, is dead set against being found out, which is why it never works out. Maybe she has a spanking fetish?

Graphics: Both of the women are smoking hot and you see quite a lot of especially the sister character as she is constantly flashing her brother.

Sound: This game includes music videos. While the computer generated vocals aren't my cup of tea it does set this game apart. A+ for effort.

Conclusion: The hot writing, good graphics, and extra effort involved in making a music video make this a soild 5 star game. Just beware that it is a lot of talk and not much action.

Fantastic visual novel.

The writing and story structure are presented in extremely high quality. The characters generally feel earnest and well-developed. They're exaggerated in the way that is typical for an adult VN/Game, but even then there are enough elements of realism and natural behavior that they do not feel like tropes.

The combination of visual depictions and text expository in the sex scenes is balanced well and deftly handled. It is both sexy and fun to read.

The pacing is a bit slow, but I find that this factor really just increases my investment in the story itself.

Finally, I must tip my hat to any dev who appreciates and understands the sexiness of women with natural pubic hair in a VN/Game like this. The latent, primal sensuality of a big bush is referenced in text and visually many times and it is a rare treat and highlight for games of this type!

This game is unbelievably good and addicting.

It shouldn't be, objectively.
It's made with Honey Select or a similar tool. That results in obviously not all that high quality images, barely acceptable light & shadow and models that are years and years out of date.

It shouldn't be, subjectively.
None of the characters are the kind I would be attracted to. Not a fan of the whole blond thing, the glasses, and the mother looks more like a normal mother than some hot milf.

And yet.
The characters pop off the page, clearly have their own personality & ideas, and the conflict and tension that the game creates keep you on the edge of your...erm seat?
And somehow even the images manage to look good, sensual. From the camera shot angles, to the way the characters are posed to emphasize the action on screen, it just feels real, raw and emotional.

You can't wait how things keep unfolding, what next border out intrepid seductress will make her family members cross over.
And did I mention that it's unfathomable how hot the daughter / mother dynamic is? When did that become hot?
Well, it sure somehow is here.

Despite it all, Sinful Summer feels different than most incest games. More down to earth, more emotional, more focused on the taboo and the conflict, and it gives you a constant, gradual escalation that makes you actually want to see the next scene. And the one after.

[ Review for version - Ch.2.5 ]

TL;DR: Just finished the current release version of Sinful Summer: A Tale of Forbidden Love. It's awesome! Easily one of the better/best kinetic novels I've played on here.. The audio choices are all great, and the visuals are fantastic! It is also one of the best taboo exploration stories I've ever played.

The Good: Incest! I'm obviously biased here since it is a favorite tag, but this game does incest really, really well and unashamedly! The taboo actually matters. The story is also good, and so are the character personalities.

The Average: It is a kinetic novel with multiple protagonists. It divides attention and development of characters, but you get a more balanced perspective of all character's current mental state. Good, but not for everyone I have noticed.

The Bad: The male protagonist, Erik, is very hard to get into in the early part of the game due to his venomous way of dealing with the taboo. I understand his conflict, but sometimes he is hard to relate to. He gets a lot better quickly though.

Wishlist:
> More Helga and Lyna action!
> More of Erik being a good boy.
> More hand-holding, head-patting and hugging!
> More aggressive advances from Lyna - I love a go-getting woman.
> Anna? ANNA?! YES!!!

I want to give 4.5, but I like the game so much I'll weight it to a 5.

Visuals are nice, but could be a tad better, but get the job done.

Other than that top notch. At the top of my list is the writing. Normally I dislike VNs as the writing is so bad I sometimes question the age of the individuals writing them. I just blast through the text on skip.

Another thing I love is Ruykiru is keeping the main point the main point. A very focused story involving the 3 characters and it's a family game. That's what the fans of this genre are here for. So many so-called incest games go off on tangents for years (literally some games are in development on here for 5+ years) and fail to deliver the sexual content that fans of this genre are here for, and ignore the household members and introduce dozens of new characters which irritates the hell out of me. While this I would say is a slow burn, the narrative has expertly moved the main story along rapidly since the game launched. I can't remember ever being this into a VN's story ever.
I reviewed this after paying to get access to 2.5 and I'm eagerly awaiting the next installment. 2.5 was incredibly hot.

S TIER EROTICA!!!!!

Every aspect of this game deserves 5 stars:

• Graphics: pretty high quality, basically as good as it gets for an HS2 game
• H: It slowly but consistently builds up to the good stuff. There's a lot of sexy shots sprinkled throughout but it's not a constant barrage of meaningless porn
• Writing:
  • The characters feel real. They have flaws, feelings, regrets, and plenty of endearing quirks
  • The pacing is great - there's lots of funny scenes mixed with cute and wholesome ones, romance, drama, flashbacks, teasing, and H. Never gets old each in-game day feels like it's making tangible progress in the characters' relationships
• Audio: sound effects and music are hella immersive

Pretty decent game, dev is really a good writer, this type of game is uncommon, I mean slow burn incest is really really uncommon reason is it's starting to feel boring but it's not the case with this one.

So.......if you're into slow burn incest then this one is definitely for you!

Anyway, it's obvious that not every game is perfect.

Everything here's good but there's still somethings I don't like and it'll be my personal opinion.

1st. Renders quality is good, but sometimes it's look alright sometimes mediocre, sometimes really good!

Despite how characters looks (I know they don't look much beautiful) but they all looks almost same even the MC looks same as his mother and sister, these type of things rare in incest games.

I don't know it's just me but the MC seems a bit dormant, (personal opinion)
But unlike other games MC here isn't much of a wimp, many or rather every honey select 2 game have wimpy-ass MC always think "I see hole I will goal!"
But to talk about this game MC he's a bit introverted, insecure type guy (that's the interesting thing about this game), play the game to find out how he developed his feelings!


Sometimes only sometimes Lyanna may annoy you but she's a good sister I know sometimes her personality sucks but she's good in the end.


Somethings that you should know, I wasn't planning to download this game because of femdom tag, but this game have light femdom + romance, so you needn't to worry about femdom.

I would like to say something about MC's mother too but I don't want to spoil much.

At the end of my review this game's fully recommended by me if you're into slow burn incest, if you want to read something real this one might be for you.

As for mr. Dev this is really something else, you sure created a good game!

Good luck man can't wait for the next update!

Story 5/5 A very good story and in the upper echelon of slow burn mom, son, and sister consensual incest games. My 2nd favorite game the dev is working on. ( Helps with Deadmoon Survival)

Character Renders 4/5 Models are great and they look like they are related. Butts are superb and I like the textures chosen. Some weird clipping and angles of body parts here and there but thats to be expected with the Devs first solo project and how frequent lengthier than normal updates are released.

Characters 4/5 Mom is great and her reluctance believable. Sis is a psycho but a lovable psycho. She walks the line between realistic and porn logic type character writing,. Personally I can find it a bit jarring with her very human emotional moments and then her, at times, overbearing need to shag. I get why she is written that way, just not personal preference, could be others though so dont let it detract you from reading. All characters are top tier.

Choices N/A out of 10 Its a kinetic novel.

Sex 5/5 Superb build up and the scenes are hot. Dev also has some really unique angles during the action that adds to the hotness levels.

MC 5/5 Very reluctant, the best written realistic MC in the incest genre.

Dancing 6/5 Nice touch to the end of each chapter. Maybe the Dev can have some mom dancing in the future lol jk

Overall the Dev is beast with the Update releases and the sky is the limit with the potential on his possible next game(s). Their solo work and help with Deadmoon is worthy of a subscription

an excellent game, the 3d art is really good and i like that the developer used honey select 2 to develop the game, it breaks the monotony of daz's 3d art.
the story always continues balanced and coherent with the character and emotional characteristics of the characters, so we will not immediately find random sex scenes, but, where they happen there is always an excellent construction behind it.
last opinion, the communication with the developer is always excellent, he always answers any questions and doubts.
cons?
currently (in my opinion) there are none.

The best kinetic novel game I've played explores the taboo of incest. MC is too apprehensive, but I guess the author is going for the slow burn buildup. (But MC is too apprehensive.)

The game's visuals are impressive, with detailed character designs and realistic skin textures. Although the animation is limited, it doesn't detract from the overall experience. The female characters are particularly well-crafted, showcasing their beauty and physical attributes.

Overall, this game is a fantastic achievement. The characters are engaging, the story is intriguing, and the visuals are top-notch. I highly recommend it to those seeking a thought-provoking and mature gaming experience.

For me 4/5 Star

Best game ive played exploring the taboo of incest. The male character can be a bit too apprehensive at times but I guess the author is going for the slow burn buildup.

Renders llook good, not a lot of animation but they are good. The woman are beautiful especially their skin texture and body design. Hoping for more great content to come.

A lot of things to say,

It is a great game, the writing it's just top tier, it is not a fuck fest where family members just fuck each other ignoring the real taboo that comes with it, no, this game takes it to another whole level, as these stories should be told, romance, guilt, lust, you can feel what their characters are saying, that's how good it is written.

Then you have the characters, three of them, each one with a very unique personality and behavior, you can relate to some of their actions and thinking, of course, you want them to fuck and kiss, but at the same time, you want the author to take his time because everything is worth the wait.

The Author, @Ruykiru, man... what an artist, even created some original music for the game! you can tell he cares about his craft, and sometimes we forget how important it is. he is always paying attention to the feedback and constantly updating us about the project status, I just hope for him to continue and can't wait for the next updates!

This is the absolute hottest incest story on the site, In my humble opinion and man, I've been through a lot of them.

From the realistic and well thought out dialogues, to the hot well paced teasing, to the amazing camera angles, this kinetic novel is a masterpiece in every way.

If you are a fan of incest, you would really be missing out not to give this a spin.

I did not finish this game's release yet, but I'm already loving it... Just gotta say to the dev: DUDE, invert the colors for the siblings! Most of the time Eirk (in green) wears blue, and Lyna (in blue) wears f*cking green!
Otherwise great work, for your first game this is excellent, if I didn't know, I'd think you have experience making games and/or writing stories.

EDIT.
The love triangle is so well-written. Characters feel real and you start to care for them.
Can't wait to play the finished version. Great game. 5 stars.

I honestly don't even know what to say...
I was going to do a more detailed analysis... but...
I'll try…

the renderings are excellent, the Nordic look of the characters is very much my style, I love blonde girls, and to be honest it's the main reason I tested the game, the rendering in some animated moments, animated scenes, looks strange, like just some part of the rendering moves... as if it were a type of cutout…

a "slice of life" story, day to day with the family in a holiday home with his sister (initially) and later with his mother, and divorced father, there is not much climax in the story
that's why the developer placed ALL the climax of the story in the MC's insecurity, in the brother's insecurity
with a virgin sister and revealing her feelings for her brother and the MC simply terrified, his insecurity and the fear he has of his own sister and her advances, is not normal.

It's usually the kind of novel that Asians like, a drama and MCs with fear... but it doesn't work for me…
It's very frustrating the guy yelling the dev writing IN CAP LETTERS and the screen shaking and the character yelling

There is a scene where he literally hurts his sister and she almost cries...
He simply fought with his sister over some panties on the floor
He fights with her for trivial and futile reasons,

I understand that some guys like to be sensitive... but this story is not for me, if I continue it would be absolutely because I really like blondes... but I don't know if that is enough to keep me going…

once again showing that a MC's personality is capable of ending interest in an entire game.

Rating: 5 of 5

I'll be honest, i'm here for the Incest romance games. A good plot is Importent and also the animations and models are really Hot and that makes a excellent game for me. This is essentially a family harem of 3 people mother and her children with hot content and their evolving relationship . For me, this is one of the best Vn's on this site. Very Erotic scenes and plot! highly recommended.

There is nothing better than a hairy mother! Thank you for creating such an awesome character for us to experience in your story. Cannot wait for further updates and scenes! Will be following this thread and game closely for a long time to come.

The best game i ever played in this site. The excellent story, with excellent characters with unique personality, a refreshing one. And passion of dev is clearly visible. May be for the first time I'll financially support a game as well. I don't have much words to explain how good this game's story is, thank you for sharing your wonderful work.

Great game so far. Dev doesnt hold back the story or censor it like other games do. It is one of the best written incest game out there.
Models are great. Animations are great. The story is great. I just wish it would not get abandoned like the rest of the incest games.

This game compelled me to for the first time ever write a review.

Pros:
This is truly the best game i played on here. The buildup is done at a perfect pace and the renders are realistic and visually stimulating.
The attention to detail with clothes and facial expressions is what makes this game high quality and highly immersive.

The characters have unique personalities and feel very alive.

Cons:
The lighting seemed off to me at times but nothing that really sticks out.
The genetalia could be bigger, but that's a personal preference lol

I have high hopes for this game and can't wait to play the next update
