VN - Ren'Py - The Adventurous Couple [TACOS S2 P3a] [Mircom3D]

I don't consider it a bad game but I don't see the evolution I expected, just two more letters and a couple different scenes, including one that makes it impossible for me to play it on my cell phone, I'm going to enjoy the game without expecting anything, I think it's better for me than that way

If you're not into hotwife, cheating, cuck and such this is not the game for you. But if you are than this is one of the best of it's kind. the wife is so hot and her scenes are amazing. I get the fact that people are annoyed that this is the 2nd reboot of the game but it is much more cohesive this time.

It's by far the best wifesharing/cuckold game out there. Super render. Very sexy woman.

The story has great ideas and runs at a perfect pace. Of course, everything runs a little too perfectly, but that's normal for games like this.

It lacks a bit of the humiliation aspect but that's what makes the overall story a bit more believable. Or rather, you could actually imagine that a story like this would also be possible in real life. With a lot of imagination, of course.

Thanks for the great game!

The Adventurous Couple is a VN about a married couple and their sexual explorations. As much as I’m a fan of swinging and netorase, there are just too many flaws in this game for me to really get behind it.

First, the characters are extremely bland. The husband and wife have no personality outside of maybe the wife being horny and the husband being aggressively cucky. The men who fuck the husband’s wife and women who the husband flirts with are also completely flat, with roles but no personality. It’s hard to care about anybody fucking in a game where none of them are likeable. You might as well just watch porn at that point.

Second, there’s basically nothing in the way of story progression or character growth. While the individual scenes can be pretty hot, they just come about as if the author pulled them from a hat. There’s almost nothing in the way of a narrative that connects them. As for character growth, technically the wife is “corrupted” over time, but she’s fucking at the drop of a hat pretty quickly with almost no pushback.

Lastly, and this is more personal preference, the game feels more cucky than swingy. The husband’s interactions with his wife are largely voyeurism to her fucking and showing off. This might be circumstantial, but the one time I told her not to fuck a guy, she got upset and insisted she wasn’t going to fuck him… and absolutely does with your consent in the only other option.

Anyway, there are some hot scenes in the game if you’re into voyeurism and exhibitionism and I do like the wife’s model, but this feels more like a collection of individual scenes than a story or a game. If you’re really into the above kinks, give it a shot. However, you won’t find much if cucky swinging and exhibitionism aren’t your thing.

Taco is now a game based on the original idea which they are gradually trying to restore graphically and grammatically, perhaps the initial idea from a few years ago as an innovation could have been good, but over time instead of improving it they have worsened the situations and not resolved the flaws of the game, wasting time just reviewing yet another restoration is enough, it has no meaning, it would have been more useful to repair some dynamics that were not so appreciated, and perhaps not to make Anna a woman who thinks only with her pussy without brains and morals, and a more MC damn, it would have given a more dynamic effect to the game.

Excellent NTR story
The MC is very handsome his wife is very hot and there are all ingredients for the hotwife genre the fact the story is from male perspective can cause doubt and some controversial filling but for me the story is believable.
The prologue allow the player to understand that this couple comes from a long time relationship because they know each other from the college days.
I' have played all versions including the one that was aborted at CH15

Renders are very nice
the dialogues are minimal but leave the reader's imagination free, and I think that is a good thing

definitely one of the must-have games on this site..

10/10 for me

After watching the protag cum on his stomach from the 27th lazy handjob by his otherwise creatively devious whore wife (who just took an equal number of rando sausages in the past week), I'm left wondering if the "adventure" and "couple" are ever going to become the focus of this VN.

This story is on a few recommended swapping VN lists, but I would advise anyone in the market for a fun swapping/sharing couples story to stay far away. This is cuck POV to the max and while there are a ton of scenes, the story takes a long time to go nowhere. The game basically requires the reader to enjoy loosely strung together hardcore porn scenes from an enthusiastic sub/cuck POV. I'm giving it a negative review mainly because I feel like the game's title, early story, and inclusion of stat tracking/etc. gives the false impression to players that this game provides some agency to switch between loving/kinky/depraved scenes. Eventually, it's all depraved/lying/cheating here no matter what choices are made.

EDIT: Bumping my rating after playing through the Season 2 / 2B release. Looks like the previously mandatory "stuff" from chapter 15 is being split into separate paths, which is a big plus. Anne was becoming MC's roommate last game, but has stayed a loving/kinky/honest partner so far this playthrough.

Considering everything, I would give this game a 3 out of 5 stars. Why? Well, I think there are definitely some things that need major improvement.
Starting with the story and the decisions - you and your super hot wife decide to spice up your sex life. Fine, a solid premise, a lot of space for fetish exploration and kinky stuff. What happens along the way? Basically you just turn into a cheating couple who have no boundaries. The problem I have with this is specifically one decision, and that is the decision that should lead to staying faithful. In the end, this doesn't matter, and Anna still cheats on you. That way the decisions don't really make sense. Also, Anna gives into the swinger lifestyle pretty easily, (almost) immediately starting to flirt with other guys and flaunting herself. I wish this was done in another, slower way. I believe it would make the plot more interesting.
The renders have their ups and downs, there is a lot of clipping and the animations weren't always of high quality. Still, the models do look good, especially Anna, who is an absolute eye candy.
Overall, I had some fun playing this game, but won't probably come back to it.

Poorly animated, renders are range from awful to average at best. Most scenes are still scenes with no animation at all.

The game seems to start ok, then just dips in quality where the lighting in the same scene goes from pitch dark to blinding. You can see the crappy rushed render fireflies and where the Daz model has the weird black lines on character heads.

The UI, dialogue and 'quality control' are all shoddy. There is little to no story and just jumps from one random fuck session to the next and the fucking is fucking awful.

Overall, feels like an old subpar game where the dev has gone back to update the early part of the game to current standard...and the current standard is still mediocre.

This game is consistently doing the opposite of what it should be. In the original version which had 15 chapters, the beginning was filled with fluff before transitioning into back to back sex scenes nonstop to the point of getting repetitive when it should have stopped a long time ago. In the new version, the wife is a whore from the start and walks around without panties 24/7. In both versions, bugs abound. In the original, the animations would cause the girl's head to twist like the exorcist. In the new one, the game is bugged so you have to renpy rollback often, and even when you do the game is still busted, locking you out of content.

I would rather have a game with grammar errors but good pacing.
I would rather have a game with fewer scenes but hotter payoff.
I would rather have a game that knows when to end rather than going on forever.

This is one of those games that just needs to stop. It doesn't have potential as either a work of art or as a novel erotic experience. Just let it die.

Great game, models are really good especially Anne. Story and dialogue seem a bit stale. I think improving the dialogue would make this the best in this genre. The story has not progressed much for the last 5 chapter.

TAC was a breakthrough when it was first published back in 2017 and quickly became a favourite with cuck/swing/share fetishers on f95. The first 7 chapters were awesome as Anne became prettier and more adventurous and the story telling was up to par with Anne's kinkiness. It all went downhill after that with no character development, no build ups to the sex and the story became a fuckfest as Anne became more of a cumslut/cumdump IMO because the dev could not find exciting stories/ scenes to spice up the spicing up. Patrons complained but Mircom paid no heed as income increased. Eventually as patrons left the game, he decided it was time for a reboot with Anne a more discreet/demure/faithful(to truth) character. One is a virgin only until the first pop and it looks like Mircom is a one bullet pistol and is now firing blanks.
The renders are great, the animation pitiful, the story and dialogues from Ch8 unexciting. My rating is 5 stars up to Ch8 and 3 stars onwards only because the character Anne is an endearing slut. It's time to lay this VN to rest, it tastes stale now, and move on to newer stuff e.g. Couple's duet, Watching my wife and Exciting Games are very promising.
Thank you, Anne, for the memories.

Reviewing Ch 1-10. I'm not going to continue into new chapters.
The positives are that there's a lot of content with most of it pretty hot, most of the renders look really good, the wife looks sexy as do most other women in the game, and the writing is pretty decent. The content is sexy but only if you're into the whole hotwife thing, which is something I neither crave nor hate in a story, but I'm definitely not into betrayal and involuntary cuck stuff. It's increasingly looking like that's the direction this train's headed, so I'm exiting at this station. As to the render quality, while it's normally very good, it can vary wildly with low resolution and wrong/inconsistent brightness or gamma. Not to mention, there's missing images and inconsistencies (eg Victoria in Ch 10 grows a few inches and changes her hairstyle in the middle of a conversation, then shrinks and reverts her hairstyle again). Also, more than a few animations are horrendously glitched especially Anne's head, and at least one instance of a giant cock literally popping right out through Anne's first and second lumbar vertebrae during each downstroke. While Anne is pretty, in a some renders with weird lighting and expression choices, she can can look hideous IMO. While the writing is always readable, which is better than can be said about a lot of games here, there are a substantial number of run-on sentences and typos (eg "you" instead of "your" and vise-versa, "to" instead of "too", "the" instead of "then", misspelling "come on" as "common" constantly). There are plenty of technical errors too. There's more than a few lines said by the wrong character. Sometimes MC is attributed to say lines of conversations he's eavesdropping on instead of the dude Anne is speaking with. Sometimes Anne says lines in conversations between MC and a girl, when Anne isn't even in the same building. At least a few times, MC is referred to by his default name instead of the custom name, and once or twice there's incorrect syntax to the MC name variable. Any receptionist in the game displays the image of the receptionist from the massage parlor in the early chapters. The sidepiece Elena also acts in their second conversation as if they've had more than one casual conversation while in line for coffee shop. I played the options at the resort multiple times and can't find any path to an interaction with her that would make that dialogue make sense.

Regarding the plot and themes in the story, the description and reviews had me hoping that this was going to be a representation of a couple in an honest, open-relationship / swinger lifestyle. It started out like that, but it goes off the rails into cheating and lying territory, but with no real consequences for that. Read GrimmjawAvn's review below and I wholehearted agree with everything said there. Given the premise that MC is turned on by convincing and watching his wife fool around with others, that should logically lead to them playing together afterwards. As the game goes on, either Anne turns him down after she fucks another dude or MC just talks about it excitedly with his slutty wife before and after such encounters. This couple fucks each other a quarter as often as they fuck everyone else. I have plenty of friends in that lifestyle who have tried to hard sell me and my wife on swinging / open-relationships. They pitch it as a way to spice up their marital sex life, not to supplant it.
The description also makes it sound like there's going to be some work in getting MC's wife to open up, but it doesn't take long to be honest. She immediately gets on board with flaunting herself and teasing anyone at any time, and pretty soon after that she's DTF with absolutely anybody, and she's okay with lying about it to her lecherous but supportive husband for no apparent reason. At least it's a tiny bit realistic in which circumstances she's willing to fuck somebody up to this point, but her concerns are of when and where, never who or why.
On the gameplay, I was frustrated by the fact that the dev seems to disregard the choices the player makes when it doesn't fit the story he wants to tell. For example, if you play it loyal, your wife still defends her cheating by claiming that you cheated too. Another case is if you decline your bosses pool party invite and therefore Anne never meets his son, you'll still find him and your wife fooling in your apartment at lunch the following week as if she and you have met this kid before. At least one other choice I tried leads to a "label not found" error. I checked the files, and there's no sign of a mislabel. It just wasn't written. It's might be fixed in the third-party multi-mod, but it really bothers me when a dev can't be bothered to fix the bugs in his game for years. And I get that it's the dev's story to tell, and he should tell it how he wants. That's fine, but don't put choices in the game that won't be adhered to in the story.

Should be two stars for the bugs, bad renders, glitched animations, false choices, inconsistencies, and poor handling of betrayal and cheating, but the porn is hot and there's a lot of it, and even if it is about a less mainstream fetish at least it's not futa.

Excellent game that covers all different tastes. If you are looking for a open minded swinging game with lots of fetishes ( almost everything at this point) and tons of dirty sexy sceneries then you just found the best one on the site. Loved all the content up to this point and can't wait for more. This is one of the few on here I don't want to end. Alexa and Mandy are wonderful and I can't wait to see where that goes. If we could get the wife's mom and mc dad back with Alexa and Mandy...omfg. Excellent work!

Solid hotwife genre game.

Would be 4 or 5 stars from me if it weren't for the bulk of images in ch 6-9 having invalid webp headers or something which causes them to crash renpy on load- I ended up fixing them manually because I liked the game.

Pros -
Decent storytelling, variety of locales and setpieces, actually attractive scenarios instead of the typical ntr fare of homeless banging....
Nice side quests like the diner characters and office coworkers.
Good ability to choose your own adventure route based on player preferences - ie do you want more swinger stuff or cuck stuff.

Cons -
Graphics/renders look a bit dated, maybe it's just me....
Animations are non-existent or just static screeens slightly moving poses.
The ability to choose routes like ir/non-ir is somewhat perverted by forcing you into certain interactions off-route; like the first waiter on vacation.
As mentioned before, a large chunk of content bugged in current release.

Time for an honest and objective review of one of my favourite games. This is a must play for anyone who's into the sharing/hotwife/cuckold genre. Let me start with what I loved about the game. It has a lot of fap material with sex scenes galore. Anne has a lot of fun with strangers and friends and truly begins to go wilder with each update. The MC can have his fair share of fun with other girls too and i appreciated it. Anne also gets annoyed/mad wen the MC denies some of the opportunities that she would have wanted to take on. It's feels grounded and provides itself as the consequences of him wanting to share her. But the most glaring flaw regarding that is how it falls off on matters of cheating. It's not treated as an issue as big as it should be whether it's the MC or Anne herself cheating on each other multiple times throughout the game. The game description mentions something about the ultimate goal of sharing Anne but the way the cheating aspect of the game is handled made my immersion lessen each time the MC and Anne discussed it and brushed it off instantly. Comeon Mircom3D, you named the game "The Adventurous Couple" not "The Adventures/Corruption of Anne". There's no longer a Couple if they keep cheating on each other without any consequences. That's my only gripe regarding this almost perfect game minus the oversized unreal 12+ inches dicks(ಥ‿ಥ) going into Anne. Keep up the good work and hope to see Mircom3D achieve new heights with each update.

Edit: I tried the faithful route for both Anne and the MC and Anne still cheats. Bruh.... And it seems like Mircom3D didn't even consider people going full faithful with the MC too since when he first confronts Anne about the cheating with Malcolm she says something along the lines of "you cheated too, so we're even" Bitch what you smokin? She says that wen the MC ignores every pussy thrown at him on the Full Faithful path. Just gotta remind myself to never play faithful since it's no use at all. Previously had 4 stars, one star less now since playing the Faithful path gave me brain cancer and reduced my IQ. ಥ‿ಥ

This game is fantastic. Despite having a massive number of characters it focusses it's character development on the main characters and doesn't go down rabbit holes with every character we meet. The choices are many and they matter. The art is awesome and the writing is decent.

There are some issues. For some reason, despite the MC remaining faithful and not sleeping with any other women his wife will make remarks in late game about him sleeping with other women. This needs to be fixed. Also, in a few places the image doesn't change at the appropriate time with the dialog but this issue isn't that much of a problem.

Some things that I would change: If Cuck=True there should be more dialog changes from the wife that reflect this. There are some but they are rare. Dick sizes need to be more realistic but at this point in the game it is unrealistic to want this changed. Also, there should be an early game blatant choice made by the MC as to whether he wants to sleep with other woman or remain a voyeur and this should subsequently remove all options that would result in him sleeping with other women for the rest of the game.

As it stands though this is one of my favorite games here and I certainly would recommend it.

A misleading game title if you ask me. It's more the cheating couple. Sure, to some degree you can avoid the cheating, but without it, there is not much 'adventure' to be had. Delicate subjects and kinks such as: hotwifing, netorase, netorare, swinging, sharing, etc. ... is tough to pull of and this game for the large part fails at it. I'm sensing the dev has little experiences of this, no offense intended.
After the initial disappointment I adjusted my expectations and just played it for the lewd scenes...
It starts out promising and at a nice pace but fairly quickly it goes from 0 to a 100 and back again. It makes little to no sense.
The looks of the models suffer from the same maladies as the pacing: both stunningly beautiful and frightfully ugly at times. Unless you are a fan of brown teeth, to name just one specific detail.
The animations don't have this problem: they are always of a piss poor quality.
The lewd scenes are for the most part vanilla and uninspired. All cowgirl, doggy and blowjob. That's about it.
Everything just screams laziness or inaptness.
I give the two stars for the times that the main girl Anne actually looks great and to the dev for trying to make a game with these type of kinks.

This game got off to a very good start, but from the second half, as might be expected, the story lost its creativity.
Unlike many ppl here, I’m not planning to write an unnecessary novel that is even longer than the whole game itself... and I'd rather get to the point right away.

I think the whole downhill of this game started when the dev decided to deviate from the well-established Netorase/cuckold path, and moved just in the swinging direction. But the story reached its lowest point there when Anne and the MC's relationship became already "too open"...
I'm not sure we can even call it a relationship when they are no longer interested in if any of them adventuring with someone else, but beyond a certain point, the game was unfortunately about that..
The most essential elements of the NTR, such as jealousy, betrayal and other conflicts, have disappeared. The game began to focus only on one thing, about how to quench Anne’s huge sexual appetite..
Although it's true in later stages of the story we can still find some netorase elements, such as the photo booth part when a stranger finds Anne's photo, but I'm still waiting for its sequel..

Overall, the game will probably never be the same again, because the story, with its many meaningless sex scenes has already lost its true appeal.

i love this game series so much! it's base on our normal couple relationship, so then remind me to thought to someone i knew.
Love, lust, trust is the most part of couple love who can keep and control it to develope couple relationship.
