VN - Ren'Py - Completed - Stay Online [v1.0] [LadyLana]

4/5 stars, closer to 3.5/5 if I could rate half-stars.

The premise of the game is you are on a work trip and your wife is at home. Classic NTR/NTS/sharing/etc. type game.

I am a fan of cheating and NTR so to me the first half to two-thirds of the game are awesome. What really detracts from the game is the direction the game takes in the latter half, particularly with the cheating/NTR path and how it gets left in the dust.

Pros:
- big fan of the wife's model and renders
- one of the better executed phone games in my opinion (cool use of the camera system, smooth texts, overall done well)
- animations are nice, not groundbreaking but smooth enough and decent (on the shorter side though)
- hotness factor of the cheating and the storyline with Markus develops nicely, this was one of the few cheating games that got me feeling pretty hot and made me want to play through the whole thing

Cons:
- the wife's expression is pretty deadpan at times. while the render quality is nice I don't think the facial expressions or emotions in the game stands out that well
- the story development in the latter third/half of the game. without spoiling too much, I feel that the NTR/cheating path just gets written off and takes the sideline afterwards. Honestly, this game feels like an NTS game first, and NTR second (from an NTS perspective, I think this game can be definitely considered 4/5, but the way NTR path is treated is second). The ending just feels abrupt and rushed and without much content after a certain point. It feels like the development of the game was with NTS in mind, and wherever a scene could be re-cycled into NTR with dialogue changes, it was, and wherever it could not, it was dropped.

Nah, just nah. As others already mentioned in previous comments: the only halfway playable and reasonable executed path is consensual NTS/cuckolding. I'ld give maybe 3/5 for THAT one, it ain't good but it works, it's okayish. So if your main interest is NTS, you propably can play this one, it's nothing special anyway.

NTR/cheating path is a poor mess of wasted time. Don't even download the game if your looking for NTR content. Furthermore: it's really hard to even figure out how to get to alternate paths. NTS is blatant "HEY YOU, do you happen to find the idea of your wife having sex with other men interesting? CLICK HERE", but as soon as you look for an alternative route, you will have a hard time to guess the right choices. Not that it'ld be worth anyway xD

Art is okay, animations are very rudimentary. There is some background music and some generic moaning during sex scenes, which is at least SOMETHING, given the fact theres still too much games out there completely silent. Nothing fancy tough, either. Writing is nothing special, most of it basically is a generic clichee husband/wife whatsapp-novel.

V1.0
Pros:

Cons:

• The motion cam could be better implemented, there is so much real estate space with a vertical display putting it anywhere on screen or even just bringing up the section with the activity instead of requiring you to manually check every single room in the house every time would save so much extra button presses. Combined with the fact that rollback doesn't work well with it can cause you to miss out on scenes if you misclick.
• Space to progress is also disabled during the cam scenes, so you have to spam click a tiny arrow to progress the text, which is barely readable during the earlier days, in the later days the text just goes off the bottom of the screen.
• Choice options are done very poorly, you miss/lock yourself out from content if you don't pick the "correct" option to progress the scenes you want.
• Stock audio copy pasted moans.
• Ending feels really abrupt before the story or characters reach any sort of payoff from all the buildup.

The game shouldn't be tagged Netorare. Although, it was a bit interesting at the beginning It quickly got boring, or maybe this happened because of my choices since I was waiting for actual NTR scenes. Anyway, everyday was pretty much the same, the idiotic husband worrying about his wife that likes to party/go out every fking day with her slutty friend. Good thing the game is short. I will probably give it another playthrough as a cuck, maybe, it's better that way.

A great game! Really enjoyable story, well written and immersive.
A top addition to the NTR genre.

The main wife is gorgeous and other characters aren't too much over the top.
I struggled to make it into the cheating path but the cuck and faithful path were both enjoyable.

WOW A Stellar Addition to My Top 5 After playing through the full cheating path of this game, I can confidently say it has earned a spot in my top five favorites. As someone who wasn’t previously a huge fan of NTR Phone themed games, I’ve come to realize that my issue wasn’t with the genre itself but rather the execution by other developers. This game, however, is a masterclass in execution.

The visuals are stunning, with high-quality renders and beautifully designed characters. There’s no trace of AI-generated content or sloppy artwork here—everything feels polished and intentional. The story is equally captivating, weaving a compelling narrative that keeps you hooked from start to finish. One standout feature is the innovative camera mechanic, which adds a thrilling layer of real-time tension as events unfold, often revealing truths that contradict what your partner claims. This dynamic is incredibly immersive and elevates the experience to new heights.

That said, there’s a minor critique: at times, the male main character (MC) seems to overlook things that should raise red flags, yet he doesn’t address them. This can feel slightly jarring and could benefit from a small tweak, such as an explanation like a bad connection obscuring what he perceives, while we, the players, see the full picture. This would make his reactions more believable and tie up some minor plot inconsistencies.

The game’s pacing is impeccable, with a gradual buildup that keeps you on edge. The use of “natural” Problems/Katastrophes used to set up the cheating and NTR scenarios feels organic and perfectly executed to create the perfect NTR setup, making every moment impactful. As a fan of cheating-themed narratives, I found this game to be an absolute delight. It reminded me of Exploring the Big Apple, another excellent title in the genre.

If you enjoy cheating storylines with a touch of mystery and NTR, you’ll devour this game.

The Dev who appears to be female which is Pretty rare in this scene clearly understands how to craft a compelling NTR/cheating story. As we all know Women know theire NTR/Cheating stuff the best knowing they are one of the biggest consumers of that and it shows in every aspect of the game. Characters and a Story that feel Real aswell as very well choosen Outfits. While there are a few minor plot holes that could use some polishing, they don’t detract from the overall experience. I’d also love to see the camera mechanic explored even further in a future project—it’s a brilliant addition that has so much potential.

In conclusion, this is a near-godlike game that deserves a solid 5 stars. With a few minor fixes, it could be flawless. Highly recommended for fans of the genre!

Loved it. Not a super slow burn but just enough to keep you hooked waiting for the wife to either succumb to temptation or not. The ending was a bit meh but it was still an amazing play. The animations could be a little bit longer aswell

Well game is on a bit of a simpler scale and the ending slaps you in the face before you even realise happening and it doesn't address some questions should be asked by husband. But in general game is tolerable and stuff happens within reasons. Like if she cheats she is pushed to cheat or encouraged by MC and others. I mean in faithful rout she too behaves a bit too freely around some people she shouldn't but she end's up pulling out just before shit hit's the fan so whatever. As I said the only weak point of the game is the ending that kinda anticlimactic but other than that I liked following this project and hope it will be a stepping stone for better project's in the future.

I originally liked the idea and the delivery. The corruption level seemed okay, the renders were good. They utilized an interesting "home camera" mechanic that seemed fresh, for a game like this.
I kept waiting for the dev to smooth out some problems and flesh out the story, but after a while everything fell flat.
They abandon the home camera thing after a while, which was one of the only things making this title distinct from others.
The story abruptly ends with little more than "Then it all stopped."
Even the last chapter of the story feels disjointed from the rest.

It's clear the writer lost inspiration, and just wrapped it up as quickly as possible in a disappointing fashion. It had potential early on, but as it stands here at V1.0 and completed, I can't recommend it.

The story ended abruptly and without really wrapping it up with the absent husband expressing how he really go into what the Julia had done in his absence. However, having said that, yes this game is really enjoyable with really nice art and a very hot wife all text based which really didn't matter due to the content. So high praises to the Creator of the game and good luck with all your future endeavors and yes I'll be looking out for your future games. Respect

I dont want to write too many words about this. There was good to mediocre build up, the art is okish and then the dev decided to rage quit. At least the abrupt ending feels this way. It feels like promises broken... and it nullifies all work done beforehand, at least for me. Anyway good luck on the next project. I hope the dev learns from this, cause there was potential...

This has been a ride for me. I loved the way the story progressed and the sharing between the MC and his wife progressed. The story telling was really good and so was the anticipation. Keep up the good work.

The only reason I'm even giving the game 2 stars is that the renders are actually decent for a phone game (most of them are AI slop, so this is actually notable.)

The main problem with this game is that its really only geared toward an NTS story, and yet it advertises, tries and ultimately fails to also have the option to pursue an NTR path.

All of the dialogue and scenes are very clearly meant for NTS, and even when on the NTR path, the dialogue rarely - if EVER - is any different. Mostly the NTR path just removes some dialogue that exists in the NTS path and leaves the rest the same. This leads to extreme tonal dissonance when playing for NTR.

Just to give an example of this: It is FORCED that MC has cuckold/netorase porn on their laptop and it is FORCED that multiple people find it and confront MC about it, constantly pushing the point of "You're actually into this aren't you? You want this to be NTS, just pick the NTS options already." So it's basically already canon that MC is into this stuff and there isn't really a way to convincingly play MC as someone who has absolutely no interest in it. And even as you deny it, they continue to act like you're into it on some level and continue to try to get you to opt into NTS.

The NTR just doesn't make sense. You can even catch your wife and confront her, but that ends the game. You can ignore it but...that doesn't make any sense, at that point its just NTS without the upfront conversation because you're allowing it to happen by not saying anything. Even then, you get far fewer scenes on the NTR path.

The dev would have been better of either just making this an NTS only game, or else focusing first on the NTS path they so clearly wanted to write, and then taking the time to write a proper NTR storyline instead of half assing it.

I'll change my review down the line if they ever fix this, but right now it's just downright lazy and total bait to even pretend there is real NTR in this game.

My review of Stay Online [v0.95] by LadyLana

First of all, yes - this is yet another Wife Phone AVN, but the core & standout part of this experience is MC's access to security cameras. With them, he is able to witness the action (with pleasant animations) instead of being spoonfed still images of the wife engaging in either NTS or NTR.
Now, NTS in this game refers to Sharing or Cuckolding (without humiliation!), which is done reasonably well:

• The wife asks permission (most of the time, though she never blue-balls her husband too hard), and the husband clearly enjoys it.
• The main bull (for now) is a white guy, with the most recent addition of a black guy, though the "typical" interracial aspects that most people are sick of are not present here - these are two guys who just happen to have white or black skin, nothing else matters or is mentioned.

NTR path, however, is where most of my disappointment with this game stems from:

• Earlier in the game, the husband is able to catch his wife cheating on him via one of the security cameras (that the wife is not aware of, btw) - and is given the option of confronting her, admitting that he wants to see more of it, or plain ignore it:
  • Confronting the wife leads to a Game Over, which is needless to say a massive no-no in choice-based games.
  • Admitting to her that you liked it puts you back onto the NTS path, which is admittedly a neat feature.
  • Ignoring it is the only way to continue the NTR path, yet introduces a whole host of new issues...
• Choosing to continue the NTR path means the MC becomes a silent cuck, a mute protagonist that doesn't react to his wife cheating at all. And when I say "doesn't react", I am being 100% honest: the MC has 0 dialogue lines or internal monologues depicting his turmoil, agony, or even just jealousy. Nope, he speaks to his wife the same way he would on the Faithful path, which is simply perplexing... to put it mildly.
  • The game only has two (technically three, if you count Faithful) different paths, so one of them being so poorly done is not good, even for a first attempt.
  • NTR path is a straight reduction from the NTS path. Now, this does make sense from a purely logical point of view (the wife won't be sharing all of her affairs with you, hence you get to see less of the action overall). This is to be expected, but the reduction I am refering to mostly applies to dialogue - there is pitifully little lines/scenes unique to the NTR path.
    • The latest update, 0.95, doesn't even offer any choices to the player on that path, and even has a non-sensical event happen.
  • Digging deeper into the game code, it becomes clear why this is (partly) so: each line of text in the game is hard-coded into an image. This makes retroactive fixing of grammatical errors impossible without a lot of effort & time. A forgiveable mistake for a first-time developer, but still a huge mistake that impacts QoL.
  • I have given feedback to the dev about this issue for several updates now, and it becomes clear to me that I am being ignored for whatever reason. Take that how you will,.

Overall, this game is quality. Far more effort is put into it than your average Phone NTR/NTS games riddled with AI-renders that all look to be a part of the same game, so by virtue of renders & premise alone, Stay Online positively stands out.

However, the focus is clearly on NTS, with NTR taking a backseat to the point I would even say this game is misleading players into thinking they will have an immersive NTR experience, which is why the game would be a solid 4/5, but I have to knock it down to 3 for flying too close to the sun.

I would still recommend this game to any NTR or NTS fan, as it is very much worth the time - just make sure NTS is your preferred roleplay.

The game started with a lot of promise of a good NTS/NTR game with great art and a sexy wife but swiftly turned into a traditional CUCK/NTR game.

What began as a slow burn with some erotic teasing and fun, out-of-nowhere jumped into the douchebag NTR bull trope with Markus being in love with your wife and forcing himself into every situation.

Initially the dirty talk was pretty hot and loving, but quickly devolved into humilation with things like, "He's so much bigger" or "She fakes her orgasms with you" or "I've never felt an orgasm like THAT before."

Maybe I need to go back and try the other path but I was pushing for more hotwifing and teasing and instead ended up with the wife basically getting another boyfriend within the first 20 minutes of the game. And the whole thing just freaking jumps from teasing and a handjob to fucking 8 times in a night without even talking about it with the MC first. That's a big skip.

It also jumps to them making out, texting, flirting and essentially doing everything that a couple does immediately after. It was so abrupt in the game that I had to take a break because I was getting frustrated. By the time they had sex I was already so tired of Markus that I wish they had a text option to tell him to fuck off. Then boom! He's right back the very next day.

There are many pluses such as the wife and friends being beautiful, the ability to check cameras, and the ability to affect outfits. But the rush into sex, the overbearing amount of Markus, and the fact that after the first couple chapters your choices basically become meaningless and static bring the game down.

Even just the option to say, "Hey, no kissing!", or "Use a condom" or "Make sure to check in FIRST" or, best of all, "Not with HIM!" would improve things a lot. Adding some more natural/organic teasing such as your wife being at the beach, or at a park, or at work, changing in a store, etc. (I.E. having stuff happen with random encounters) would make it more enjoyable than bringing back the same characters so much.

Finally the music: while it was nice to have something break the silence, using the same simple elevator music the entire game completely kills the tone of some of the scenes. Like watching your partner being with someone else the first time needs its own music to match the vibe, or at least a more intense background track.

Started 4.5, moved down to about 3 stars.

Okay, this is a pretty simple game that actually turned out to be a bubbling volcano. If you don't follow the path of obvious perversion, then she will keep a tight rein on you for the whole time. Good execution of the idea. I will be waiting for new updates.

I really like this game, it feels unique in that it's a phone-based game that actually uses 3D renders, and that alone gives it a big boost. The story is also really good, with a few different pathing options giving separate routes to follow.

The FMC is really attractive, and the scenes, although mostly short by necessaity, are also generally hot - although that hotness is definitely increased by the accompanying story.

The hidden cameras are a welcome addition to the game, giving it a whole new element to help drive the story forwards, and, depending on the selected path, the teasing is really nicely done as well. On the cheating path, although it's not actually behind the MC's back, things are kept quiet, but I can see why that would be, even if it's not how I personally would react. All told, it makes for a really intriguing story, and a great game.

At first look like normal game ntr but is so very surprise me when play .
Good with CG + Content + Story + Sexy Character
If you like NTR + Wife + Cheating + Cockold this game should have in your list.
Thank you Dev for nice game make me feel amazing i love content with phone is so brilliant.
