    The following review is based off my personal experience with playing this Game/Visual Novel... I try to be as brutally honest and detailed as I can, and these are my own opinions and thoughts, from one or more play throughs... The version this review is based on is v0.1...

    This visual novel/game feels a bit like a re-skinned/reworked version of the Lab Rats visual novel/game... Plus I think at one time it was being structured around a Family Sex theme but was changes with just some word replacements to be non-Family Sex themed... There is supposedly a non-official patch to add it back in, but I don't see a reason to use a 3rd party patch, and prefer to see the developers obvious redeveloped direction for the game...

    The visuals of the characters are alright for some and decent for others... The room-mate looks a bit like a doll, and the boss looks a bit young for her position, while the landlady looks perfectly alright... During the erotic story moments, there is literally nothing erotic about the visuals... During the HJ scenes, you just see fully clothed women, sort of looking like they might be holding on to the protagonists penis, but they are not holding on to anything... This whole VN's visuals so far, are very PG, with only the list of sexual/erotic favors showing any sign of adult/erotic content...

    The script is decent, with only some occasional spelling/grammar errors... The plot revolves around a male protagonist who lives with 2 women... He used to be a high ranking scientist until he was demoted due to differences of opinion with his former scientist bosses, and now works in a local research laboratory as a janitor under a mean and strict female boss... He discovers the lab is working on a mood altering drug, and decides to do the research for his own purposes and ensure the lab never succeeds with their research for the corrupt government...

    From that point the game becomes a daily grind game play style... Working, researching, making his own mind altering drugs, corrupting the women in his home and at work, taking advantage of them, and so on... Some things he does creates Suspicion, which if it reaches capacity the game will end... But working and other activities lowers it... Some random events may also raise and lower it as well... The relationship stats for all the characters are completely hidden as far as I could tell, which is surprising since everything else shows on the user interface... The protagonist can also spy on personal things like diaries, computers, and so forth... But that mostly is to get a sense of how far the corruption is coming along, since the stats are hidden...

    The game feels like it's more or less a re-skinned version of Lab Rats with a different backstory and so on... Even when getting the women to drink the concoctions, the words the protagonist uses to get around the nasty taste they experience seems extremely similar to what happens in Lab Rats, when doing the exact same thing... But in the case of this VN/Game, it feels a bit more thrown together, with little to no originality... It's almost the same game with a different story, and with visuals that do not always go hand-in-hand with the situation...

    There was also a moment when the Landlady referred to the protagonist as MC instead of by his name, which kills the immersion for that moment...

    Overall, I'm not really impressed with this VN/Game so far as it really is more game then visual novel, and focuses on pretty much grinding and stat management so as to not get a premature game end... It is pretty much looking like it's building to be just a grind style porn fest... Yet, the visuals for the supposed erotic scenes do not look erotic, and feel very static and dry... The game play mechanics seem to be in place alright, but I've already been through this practically same exact game play style already, with more mature and complete games using the exact same style of corruption... The backstory is unique, and some of the small amounts of interlaced story seems alright, but it still needs a lot of work, even for the current content, if it wants to really succeed...

    Now, this game is obviously still early into it's production, and you do run into a content wall after a short amount of game play... Will I revisit this one? Maybe, but it needs to work out some of it's issues and put a bit more effort into the visuals for the current content before moving on to further content... And perhaps add some more creative nuances to the game play style that will separate it more from it's competition, that uses the same serum research and production in order to corrupt women system, that is so exactly similar at the moment...

    Tested in version 0.1
    TL;DR
    Models are okay but far from good. Seems like base assets untouchted.

    Story start well and is intresting. But fall short very fast. And lack relevance really fast.

    Music is unfitting and is a loop of 30/40secondes that repeat though out the game i suggest mutting it.

    Sexual content is pretty bad imho. The content is only womens taking poses that suggest what is going on.

    The grind is okay you can make steady progress every 2 days at most once you figure how the dev want you to play.

    ____
    If the dev ever read this forum review i got a couple of suggestions:
    Change the music choice and pick something more fitting and put variety.

    Add asap side characters and random events
    The game feel really empty and you just grind to the next milestone for the next "content" Weekends are especially boring.

    Make the story you put effort in building up at the start more relevant though out the game. So far it just seems like an excuse even tho it could be an amazing story line.

    Props on putting at least a initial version that actually got content and gameplay element almost all there.
    Anybody playing it right now will get a good idea of what the game is or will be.
    This build took me around 1hour to complete entirely. It was mainly because of the grind.

    ok played around with it :

    - Bad story telling , incest patch doesnot work
    - No clue what to do , it is just not working for me
    - Graphics are nice , but pointles.. Most is just text with the girl on the right.. The closeups do not even look erotic.. The cock is missing , no animations and the zooming in is totally off , you do not see anything.. Also if I want to read in the text what is happening , I would be playing text adventures

    So what would I need :

    - Incest patch working
    - More an idea what to do
    - Better more revealing images with more content . (show the cock , trust me , we have seen those before)
    - Maybe animations would nice..
    - Less text more action :) Visual Action :)

    I will come back to this when it has more content
