VN - Ren'Py - Single Again [v1.24.2] [Clever name games]

An absolutely amazing and very touching slow burn game. It is beyond well written and features a cast of interesting, distinct, consistent and loveable characters. The art style might take a bit of getting used to, but the game honestly looks pretty good once you do get used to it. The animations are quite impressive too! Seriously though, the writing is top notch and you get genuinely invested and care about the characters. It's a story focused game and it does that well, but when the sex scenes do happen they are honestly hot as fuck! If I had one little complaint or gripe it's that there were a few too many long dream sequences, but that's entirely down to personal preference.

Great game. Love the story and 99% of the characters. Only one i have any problem with is Meiko just because i find her bland. Her entire personality is the shy girl, not much else as of yet to her. The other character i feel a connection too and whenever the villain is mentioned i get a since of dread. I cant wait to get more. GLHF

4.5 out of 5 stars.

I was nervous about playing this one; the girls' looks are wonky at first, especially when compared to the standard Daz character models also in the game, but you quickly grow used to them and find them endearing.

I was also nervous about all the reviews describing the MC as a cuck or loser, but it didn't take long for me to realize these reviews are written by douchebags. The MC is a good man- one of the best I've seen in a porn VN. He's kind, honest, and principled; his initial hesitance to pursue the three main girls is entirely justified and respectable, especially considering the bullshit he's been through. I found myself agreeing with him roughly 80% of the time.

The sex scenes are above average; there's plenty of dirty talk and dialogue to make them feel real, even if there's a whole lot of "UNNGH" and "FWAAAGH" jargon.

The overall narrative feels great. Character development is slow but visible from one day to the next. I'm not entirely sure where the story is going (besides the harem endgoal), but I'm eager to see it.

I only noticed 2 cons to the game so far. The first is the writing; while the intent behind the dialogue is great, there are a LOT of grammar issues in chapter 1. Punctuation mixups, capitalization issues and the omnipresent misuse of the words "to" and "too". It really fucks with the flow of the dialogue at first. It nearly killed the game for me, but I powered through it and got engrossed by the characters and the story enough that I was able to ignore the writing issues. Chapter 2 seems to have almost no such problems in comparison.

The second problem is with the MC in the last third of chapter 1. I know, I said I like him, and I do- but that last 20% of the time I didn't agree with him, it was because he just won't shut up about how wrong all this is. As things are ramping up with some of the girls, he refuses to acknowledge simple, obvious facts that he and everyone around him can see; he's not wrong, this whole situation is absolutely fucked up, but that apprehension doesn't apply anymore. He does start to get over it, but it takes a LOT of grinding down to accept the score.

Overall, one of my favorites. Do want more, now now now.

The girls are hot, the animations are excellent, and some of the story beats are nice, but man oh man is the MC such a spineless cuck. He raised three kids that aren't his and he's a total wimp that has to be manhandled into every sexual situation. He's such a wimp that's afraid of women holy shit. That's not what people want in a porn game, actually the opposite.

I give it four stars cause I clicked through most of the story. If you actually read the story you will get secondhand embarrassment for this dude and then maybe it's three stars or even two.

Story is decent . animations are good . One thing I didn't like is the main character . Sometimes he is the greatest perv and then his conscience hits and feels guilty about it . It's been going on like this since the first update . It's always the same story and his guilty feelings to his step daughters and he's not confident enough to stop their approaches and later whines about them. The choices have little to none effects on the outcome of the story

Ok, I'm not going to keep repeating what others have said here, but I agree with all the pros and all the cons that folks have said on here. The MC is insufferable and suffers from HUGE Cock Syndrome but the story is cute, girls are hot and some of the better animations I've seen......Looking forward to future releases.

Love this game. I can play it multiple times and not get bored at all. The characters are very likable and the sex scenes are quite nice also. But what I love about this game the most is the story that is just soo good.

Single Again is one of the best game I've played. Love the story, the design and dialogs are brilliant.
Best carachter is Becca.
Like also the technical side of the game.
Top game for sure!

This is very entertaining, yet somewhat frustrating game. I completely enjoyed Chapter 1 and am ecstatic with the release of Chapter 2. I highly recommend this game if you're interested in satirical incest games. A true gem.

This is a great game. I love the characters, the story, and the renders. I can actually understand and empathize with the MC for the most part in this game as opposed to a lot of games where I think the MC is a complete dick or worse. Eventually I did get a little tired of him repeating the same thoughts over and over again about how "wrong" everything was but for the most part he was written to be an actually nice guy.

I'm really looking forward to being about to pursue Abby and Meiko. Also looking forward to scenes with multiple girls. Overall I would have to put this game in my top 10 of games I've played out of the 60 or so I've played from this site.

Great job to the devs and I hope to see more of this in the future.

I wasn't sure if rank 4 or 5 stars, because the game has small issues that bugs me a lot.
But I must acknowledge that since I started I was clearly hooked on the story and was unable to leave.
Most of the complaints are about the game over screens and the inconsistency of some behaviour but they didn't seemed like a problem to me. Having renpy rollback and having being advised at the beginning of the game "don't be too pervert at the beginning" that are easy to manage.
My complaints are that it copies the game mechanic of another game about a parent dating his daughter... We all know the game, is even referenced in this game several times.
These mechanics are the commented game over at the start of the game, the multiple dialog options that must all be selected, without actual relevance, but the most annoying one option decision . Specially relevant in the sex scenes.
The other thing that made my think of reducing one star is the unexpected end of chapter 1, to soon in my opinion:

I have to admit up front this is one of my favorites on this site. That having been said I feel the MC must live in ohio because the amount of fear he has of prosecution even though its fauxcest is terribly high (ohio has a law that anyone "in loco parentis" messing with any of their charges regardless of age can be prosecuted even without blood ties) the art is excellent the character developement is good for all (a little slow for MC ) I just d/l'ed the newest update and am expecting another fun filled hour of gameplay if you are wondering... yes d/l it its worth the time

I hate this game because of the MC. He's a pushover from the start of the game, but I hoped that he would progress through the game. But, no, instead he just more whiny the longer I keep playing. So, I just had to quit after the
Then it doesn't matter that th sex scenes are good and that it's a pretty good main story. I can't stand when a MC acts like this. He say one thing, act according to that just to back off from what he said.

TLDR; It may be a slow burn but once you get to the point where Lily is ready to call you Daddy you're going to see the MOST amazing, sexy, well done animation in ANY VN I've ever seen. There are lots of other reasons to play this game detailed below but EVERY game should have a scene this amazing..

I'm in agreement with most of the other 4 or 5 star reviews here.. the story is good.. the renders are good.. the "feels" are great.. Bruh called it erotica and I think that's a great way to put it. There is a great balance of humour.. you'll laugh but it doesn't get to the point where it feels overdone.

The man sticking point is the MCs annoying whinny behavior. I'm actually willing to forgive this up to a point because it's extremely believable that as soon as the hormones are spent, they are immediately replaced by a feeling of wtf did I just do and regret.

That said past 0.13 we'll have to see how things go. There is a point where it just becomes annoying and poor writing to keep repeating the same thing over and over. I'm hoping that Clever Name games makes the right choice and lets MC accept that Becca is old enough to make her own decisions and that Lily NEEDS the MC to be her friend, father, daddy and lover if she's ever going to have a chance of being a happy person. He even said as much and then not 2 seconds later it feels like he's trying to back out of it. It's obvious she needs a firm guiding hand and that a shrink is just going to destroy her at this point. If we're given that much then I'm fine with his continued push back on doing anything with Abagail.

So what are you still doing here reading this? Go start the download already

I like how I wouldn't even touch my lips at points because my heart was busy being heavy.
Good one, keep dabbling with emotions more, love it when a game's got a great balance of pure romance and lewd romance.
One gripe is that Frank just can't let himself enjoy the moment, he should be more open and accepting of his feelings towards the LIs after his realisations.
Other than that, keep it up.
This is one of those games that transcends porn, and becomes erotica, fulfilling both the heart and the loins.

Edit:
Deducting one star because the MC is just refusing to have any emotional progress in himself, it's like you go through such life and relationship altering events with your loved ones yet he's unable to change.
He's always walking on egg shells around his girls, that's alright if he JUST started getting romantic with them but there should be reciprocity of emotions, it's like girls want him no matter what, doesn't even matter if their love interest is giving those feelings back or not.
Just feels one sided at points.

Interesting story and character development. Well written and easy to read so far. Great quality and clean renders. Definitely keeping an eye on this one. Here is to hoping this project makes it to completion!

Well, in the beginning I was able to enjoy the VN to a certain extent, but as time went on it turned out to be bad. The story has a simple but entertaining concept, but the execution could be a lot better.

The main problem is the protagonist who is constantly whining
(which is particularly annoying during sex scenes) and apparently does not have the slightest degree of backbone and a few logic errors in the story itself. Lilith is a stupid cunt and it doesn't get any better when I am confronted with a game over screen after I gave her what she wanted. (Not going into detail here because of possible spoilers)

Also, it doesn't realy matter what I choose when I can decide things - it has not much or nearly zero impact to the story - the outcome is always beeing forced in everthing anyways. So I don't know how much sense it makes to give choices in the first place when they are fake.

All in all, i wish the protagonist would complain less, show more back bone and not allow himself to be treated like a toy all the time. He is simply a whimper and the story feels artificially drawn out.

Renders look okay, characters kinda cute (except for the mom, but that could be intended)

Final scoring: 3/5 unfapable due to constant "mimimi" could be better, but certainly worse.

This is may be a top tier game for me just for the characters and flow of the animations even the story is great.... slow but great. My only problem is there is a lot of dream sequences that don't need to be there or should be shorter so the story can pick up pace. I personally don't like the dream sequences that is just like movies where they throw a nude scene to get a couple extra tickets sold, but that is just my personal opinion.

V0.13
This game is good so far I like the story and the characters.
And as anyone else with the honesty to tell you... i had tears in my eyes from the first moment we see Lilly on the other side of that door.
I really like Lillys story arc. Spoilers ahead. The fact the MC kept at finding out what was wrong with her, her wanting him now as her dad and the ditto line when she was leaving. Melting my heart. I like the lewd stuff but love the family part of it.
This is one of the few "adult" game here where I have actually felt for the characters. Plot isn't stupid as it is in most of these kind of games or visual novels, and characters have depth in them and are not just mindless fuck robots.

This started off as an interesting but quickly turned into the most angsty repeating shit ever. I gave it 3 stars mainly because I enjoy the 3 step daughters a lot each of them have their specific points that you like and dislike about them really getting you invested in their stories. But the MC GOD the freaking MC. I understand the morality of the whole situation even if they aren't his biological daughters but the creator needs to know when to stop. The MC pervs out on his daughter legit every time he sees but also somehow manages to act like a virgin. The of course outta nowhere some smoking hot chick meets the MC and fucks him within minutes of knowing him. That's kind of the worst thing for me in these games where one or a few female characters are the main focus but some random sex scene is thrown in to idk give you a quick fap?

Like the daughters, the story is alright, MC is terible.
