RPGM - Completed - Summer Memories Plus [v2.03 Deluxe Edition Unrated GOG] [DojinOtome/Kagura Games]

I'm not a fan of the "Shota" tag, but this game is awesome. I mean literally great gameplay, Shota don't bother with me.

Score: 8/10

Fun: 9/10 - A lot of mini-games that are not boring, and funny,

Story: 9/10 - Cool, solid story, completed game what to add? Feels like everything on-place.

Gameplay: 9/10 - Yes, yes, yes, 30-day timeline, you have RPG, so need to up your skills, buy them, and increase abilities.

HGraphics: 7/10 - Pixels(tbh I like it). I would say it is enough quality, but not the best that you've seen.

Kinky: 6/10 - Is Shota kinky enough? IDK, I like other tags like brainwashing and etc, but it is good.

I feel good vibes after this game, it was fun and calm, you know, it fixed my soul after the scars of summer. But to be honest most RPGM games - are worse, so in f95 I will place a 5/5, but ofc you can find many interesting games.

Just like how the 3 stars said, for me it is average.

Gameplay is simple and all, figured everything pretty quickly as the days goes on, story is fine nothing bad from what I played, characters are pretty unique as there are interactable characters outside the main heroines(?).

What a complete turn-off for me is that the MC is a kid with his horny level times 500% and very insensible. Dude, what are the parents teaching the kid on their household? Scenarios like the kid just hump on someone's ass is just stupid and I'd like to delete the memory in my brain.

Being stupid or dumb is one thing, but acting stupid because horny and lust proves 0 level of self-control.

Ok, at least it's a porn game, I could say the goal is just to spend your days and make memories as the summer goes on, but what can I say? : p
Porn side it's pretty basic, but never forget the 'types', there are many pervert scenes and actual sex scenes.
Seems ok to me, bye.

The word "masterpiece" is overused a lot, but after finishing this gem (base game and DLC), I don't blame anyone using that word here. Despite some small flaws here and there, this is a full 5 stars game; the positives greatly outweigh the negatives.

In short, this is a free-roam, sand-box VN type of game. You know the deal: played with a mouse to click on things and advance the text, a small map with locations you can move to, some mini-games, day-night cycle and events that you can trigger to advance the story, etc.

POSITIVES:
+ Power fantasy, wish fulfillment of a sh*ta dominating his aunt and cousins (and others too!)
+ Cheating/Netori! You fuck their wife, while the cuck sleeps nearby! (Lot's of sleeping sex with the girls too!)
+ Focus on big butts! (big tits too)
+ Great pixel art. Pixel art sex with different positions and variations.
+ Great CG's for each girls events, and very sexy events too. Even the drawings in the diary are sexy wtf?!
+ Simple and easy gameplay with a neat and intuitive UI. One handed play is nice!
+ Nothing fancy in terms of writing, just a short and to the point sweet story of summer vacation.
+ Good sound design all around: sweet music and voice acting for moans.

NEGATIVES:
- Is a little bit grindy, nothing too bad really but there is some small amount.
- Translation is leaps and bounds above the usual MTL, but there's still some ocasional miss-translations and bad grammar.
- The animations are decent (and they are enhanced by the game's writing, theme and voice design) but in the end they are a bit too simplistic and somewhat similar no matter which girl you go for.
- Some unavoidable water works (golden shower, pee) in a handful of scenes, so be aware of that. The game is so good that I managed to tolerate these scenes. Still, not my thing and I wish there was an option to disable it entirely.
- Lack of quest log or proper in-game guidance. Nothing to worry about since the world map is small and the game very simple that you can just go at your own pace, but still some type of progress markers for the different girls and events would be nice to have.

Well the art is so-so, so to speak... BUT with more girls, bigger map & more polished animated scenes? This game is surely a decent template for any of future H-games. Basically, it's a super fun H-game with an obvious weakness in visual department (especially the 2D sex-animations) and the limited number of harem characters (only 3, plus extra 3 outside the house).

Other than those? It's an easy 7.5/10 quicky fun!

One of the few gmaes where youl really try and try to finish specially with multiple endings, First few run trough's will be rough and will take a while to understand but once you get the hang of it youl be able to get any ending you need or want and if you really need to follow the walk trough or use the full save that was provided. over all anything Kagura games touches becomes one of the few good 18+ games that have been produced. Highly recommended.

Good story, Good game, Good Graphics. The only downside is that it took me so long to find it, and that the official version on steam requires an uncensored patch for one of the characters. Wanted to leave this review before the sequal Winter memories came out in English, and to remind that if you like a game here please try to support the official translated release for without monatary support more will likely not be made.

Another game for my list of highly reviewed games that I just couldn't get into myself. The worst part for me by far is the 5th-grader level plot & fantasy. Feels like something I might have liked while I was too young to have any business playing a game like this. These days, as a today years old perv, it just made me want to gouge my eyes out rather than rub one out.. Maybe it's a genre appreciation thing I just don't get, who knows.

I really enjoy scene discovery and open world based games, but here, this aspect drowns in the core gameplay. Really, all you'll be doing is grinding various reputation and XP bars of different kinds through mini games, and they're all more or less the same and get boring fast - one or two tries and I had my fill.

Finally, I found the sex-scenes incredibly simplistic and dull. One or two barely animated panels per scene, and more of that terrible, terrible dialogue.

Two stars for being technically competent (especially for an RPGM). The in-game pixel art and isometric style looks great, and navigation, menu traversal and all that stuff were all quite pleasant for a game using this engine.

9/10

What an incredible game. It has been reviewed a great deal already so I won’t go too in-depth. The girls are sexy, the pixel art/animation is top shelf, the kink coverage is great. The mini games can be hit or miss, but you can just buy skip tickets.

Anyways, what I don’t see people talk about is the GODLY UX design of this game. Like holy shit, this game feels GOOD to play, and not just when I’m nutting.

Map transitions are lightning fast, and there is practically no load times at any point of the game. You can get to anywhere you want to be within a few intuitive clicks. You can pass the time of day within a single click. All transitions are accompanied with sound cues. All possible interactions are accompanied with a sound cue when you mouse over it. All interactions are engaged with left click, which unifies all possible actions instantly. Right click is used to ‘go back’. All relevant information is available to you at all times on the screen.

Like once you play Summer Memories, every other game that remotely looks like Summer Memories will feel so much worse to play. This game is ultra polished.

Normally I’d give it a 7 or 8 or so because it's pretty lacking in story and immersion imo, and that kind of thing is huge for me. But I can’t give this any less than a 9. This is god tier execution.

this is the best game i ever played.

This quest is easier than what I played in several other games such as Sumertime Saga, Zombie Retreat, etc. even though it was given 30 days, this game has unique skills, you just have to press the coat, there are several options that you want.

It's a family affair! Fun for the whole family! The incest jokes write themselves here but let's be real - this is a fun little cousin fuckin'/auntie fuckin' romp that's well worth a look. There are a number of kinks here that aren't my speed, like the aforementioned wincest, but you can already tell just from the screenshots and write ups that this game is pretty content rich with some truly great pixel art and animations.

Best of all is that there are little mini games that help break up the "action" a bit, side characters that serve as a nice break up for when you get tired of keeping things all in the family, fun mechanics to balance and a healthy amount of lewd content to unlock over several playthroughs.

The only thing (aside from not being wholly sold on some of the kinks on display here, namely incest and piss/piss drinking) that really sticks out to me that drags this game down is that I feel like the CG's are a bit sub par. They're a bit on the bland side compared to some of the other games out there, but it is offset a bit by just how hot a lot of the little pixel sex scenes/scenarios end up being.

That all out of the way, our boy Vin Diesel said it best: Nothing is more important than family.

So give Summer Memories a go, kill a rainy Sunday afternoon with a few playthroughs. It'll be time with family well spent.

Noice like the pixel art sex very much and the sex mechanism is also very good and noise during having sex and getting noticed by others it makes more thrilling gameplay also too good for me this is the h game i have erver played

Probably the best H-Game I've ever played!

The idyllic nature of moving to a small-town was captured so well, and lump that whole lazy countryside nature with some really hot and well-written characters makes for a pretty unforgettable summer. I was surprised at the amount of depth this game had, from the different scenes to the mini-games, to the secret vendors – there's just so much content to experience that I can't wait to jump back in for another play through. It's that good!

Possibly my favorite adult game of all-time.

The gameplay, which includes the need to manage certain statistics and affection of the heroines, is great considering the numerous options available which makes finding the best strategy exciting. However, more than that, the game includes a genuinely clever gameplay mechanic that makes it shine over other adult games: the lust meter. When the playable character is involved in certain erotic situations, the lust meter builds up, and when that lust is used up by cumming, that lust is allowed to convert into points which can be used to obtain skills or gain items or money. The difficulty lies in balancing the lust meter with the stamina, since the latter is necessary to expend the former. This extremely smart mechanic allows the gameplay and the sex to complement each other.

But it's not just the gameplay, but the writing is pretty good too. While I have some criticisms for the side heroines, the main three heroines are great. -- they all fulfill some fetish where each of their events gradually build off the previous ones in increasingly satisfying ways. As their storylines progress, the events get raunchier and the sex scenes lengthier.

Along with all of that, the animation is just fantastic. Overall just a very well-polished game filled with content. A must-play.

Comments
Hentai game with solid gameplay that ain’t the usual rpgmaker approach. It’s fairly solid H game with pixel art sprites and actual scenes. Shota living a dream with hot milf and onee-sans and is popular with neighbor ladies.
Overall it was pretty fun game, but for 100% completion it takes too much repetition by having to go to ng++++++++++ . But thankfully game will give you the “unlock all scenes” button after first run.
There are essentially side missions for extra lewds and overall art style is also pretty nice.
I personally would recommend playing the first time as you please and then just hit the unlock scenes switch to see rest of stuff.
Total Score:7/10

Enjoying the pacing of this one. Pretty satisfying build up with the main girls leading to the eventual more extreme H-scenes feeling earned.

The mini-games to grind out affection and unlock the H-scenes can be slightly annoying in some cases, but they're not the worst, and I generally came to not mind them.

I played this on Steam Deck and it ran with no issues in both desktop and gamemode, and controlled well with a slightly modified mouse and keyboard config (you need the 1,2,3 keys for one mini game so I had to map those).

Great content, many different scenes, nice cute family environment powered by many elements such as that daily diary thing and because of all the different ways to get to different girls, you're not gonna get bored!

I love the game, I love every girls, and I love how they are slowly become more and more lewd. But I don't like the idea of having sex have to be military top secrets in a porn game. It's gear grinding for no reason, especially as a shota character and a Japanese summer break theme.

Raises the bar for hentai, can't wait for the upcoming sequel!
Very good for fapping and the diary entries at the end of each day are hilarious and reflect on what you did the entire day!
Really would be awesome if every game was like this!

It's a cute game with multiple endings.
Some of the best parts are obvious the sex acts, but it's something you earn throughout the game. Each girl rewards you with something new from letting you see her boobs to letting you rub your dick against her panties and eventually going full piledriver.

Aside from the main 3 girls, there's characters whom you can interact with outside the house. They grant you boosts and items for helping on the main game. But if you do little things for them, they can be part of the harem.

Many of the sex acts are unlocked after finishing the day. Things like increase to daily chore/homework events, getting more money, new sex positions and encounters and so on.

Granted this is a shota incest theme so it's not for everybody.

the art, music, voices, animation and learning curve are all great. This is definetly something to wank off to or to kill some time (but then again what's the difference?)

another game i forgot to review but luckily enough i remember what happened.
the game is all about your summer visit to your relative house and while corrupting the females in the house
u have a lot of content outside the house as well with the store girl and the bug girl in the mountains and the school teacher and others
this game made me go and check kagura games for more of the same but sadly nothing even comes close
it was a really really pleasant experience
