VN - Ren'Py - The Adventurous Couple [TACOS S2 P5a] [Mircom3D]

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.

This changes the assessment of the game, because chapter Ch15 =TAC 2 is game scam hopeless. Thanks to stupid ideas and creators and his clients, the game becomes more and more hopeless.
What can I say about this game? A good game is fap. History would never have happened in RL .Because in such relationships a limit is set. We play alternately once a wife and a husband. Anna's story is more interesting than her husband's

The attraction of Anne 10/10
Anne is extremely attractive and everyone likes it

The character of Anna 2/10

Anna's slut 10/10
In Ch 15, she'll be a purebred turbo whore, and she'll fuck customers in the bar with strpitizem for cash.
Over time in the game, Anne gets out of our control and becomes a wild, untamed sexual predator who wants to fuck anything that moves and we have no control over it.

In-game elections 1/10 Ch15
Your earlier choices will not matter as they will be ignored in CH15 anyway. In the new chapter, the choices mean nothing, even if you choose something, your choices will be ignored by the game.

there are a lot of different choices in the game
Most routes are jumbled up

graphics 8/10

there are errors such as shaking of various objects, e.g. a couch in one of the scenes that looks as if it was moving.

storyline 2/10
It would never happen in real life

Lots of stupid things 1/10-CH15

Tony, her husband is a real idiot. When Anna refuses to work at a strip bar. He makes her work there. The game ignores your previous choice. I never chose Anna to cheat on Tony with his father, then the game tells me that she did cheat on him after all. A kinetic choice.
Anna works at the boss's house all the time, even stays overnight, does his wife know about it? Anna's boss says she has a big company. Seriously, and he can't afford an office? The boss records Anne without her knowing, and then Anna finds out.

Anna says she fucks for her husband, if so why not ask him who to fuck, he should decide who to fuck Anne. Meanwhile, Anna fucks the stranger. alone without her husband's knowledge. She says she goes to sleep, after which her husband finds her at the bar on the dance floor and goes to fuck someone else. illogical.


Ch 15 2/10 everything starts again unfortunately for the worse. No loading of previous seves. Choices mean nothing. Anna becomes a turbo whore, she will muck for money. Kinetic novel .

Anna selection of sexual partners 10/9
everything that moves, even old people.


choice of sexual partners for a husband 4/10
only a few pretty girls, four mature women, no wife of the boss Anna Cadys, no mature or older women with different body builds.



mechanic in the game 2/10

does not explain the statistics for what we get them for. Fidelity statistics are also not clear how they work. It's a pity we don't have full control over Anne. We should be able to skip boring, repetitive home scenes. We carry out tasks commissioned by mala. I don't know what they're giving us, probably to make Anna even more slutty. Because we are not motivated to perform these tasks, because they give us nothing for statistics.
Tony gets bj. Anna is cheating at a bar. But they are all faithful. Statistics don't change. And I'm not even talking about it, it's a nice reset of the relationship in Ch14 and in Ch15 I have the same what the reset was for, I have no idea. Parody and grotesque



7/10 sex scenes
very hot

Sex Scenes You Don't Want To Watch And You Can't Do Anything 4/10

I am annoyed by the scene in the doctor's office, the scene with the receptionist, the scene at work where Anna is on a trip to New York.

What will the end be like?

And I think Anna: she becomes a turbo whore and fucks everyone for money. Maybe he can't stand it and will divorce her or get pregnant with someone while she has sex. The game says he has an IUD. And the husband will find out about it and divorce her. Or she becomes pregnant with her husband. Their play becomes more and more destructive to their relationship each time. If she had known who she would create later, he would probably never have agreed to it.

My favorite game for so long time! From the First game week (first release).
Special thanks to the developer of this treasure, Mircom 3D. I believe, he is one of the most responsible Patreon creators ever. He really cares about his fans

This is the game that got it all started for me. This is the quintessential sharing game for me. I love how realistic the scenarios start. I love the character renders and I love the choices. You are never locked into a path but are free to choose like a real person. I love their dynamic and I still haven't found a better game.

I'm really a bit torn on this one.

As a wanking game, TAC can work pretty well, unless you cannot tolerate it's tags. Most importantly and obiously this refers to ntr.
I'm neither pro nor con ntr myself - I don't play "myself" in these games, but a made-up character, so, in a similar manner than with incest, it's something that I wouldn't want in my real life, but that can spice up a fictional story nonetheless. If you can take such attitude, large parts of TAC can be reasonably hot.
The game does get a tad repetetive from a certain point on, but it isn't too bad. The story ... yeah, it's serviceable. At least it's not cringeworthy or tries something the author is unable to pull off. There's just enough story to spice up the scenes, which is how it's supposed to be in a game like this in my book.

Even though her facial expression sometimes looks a bit artificial, I like the main protagonist Anne. She, as well as most other characters in the game, has reasonably realistic body proportions, always a plus in my book.
Unfortunately, most males suffer from morbus biggus dickus, which takes away a chunk of realism again, but ... ah well, it is what it is.
Asset selection is a bit uneven, but it's very hard to find matching assets, so that's more like a remark than a criticism.

Now on to the area that really takes away from the quality of the game, big time: production quality. It's really, really uneven.
There are some absolutely top-notch visuals in the game, high quality images with good lighting. In stills, render quality is generally very good without grains.
The animations, however, are often abysmal, heavy with artifacts, sometimes with movement issues like a rapidly shaking head that would be better suited to a horror movie. Some animations are passable, others are really utter garbage. If I understand DAZ correctly, an animation is just a string of still renders, so how exactly this drastically different outlook on quality comes to pass goes beyond me, but it's undeniably an issue.

Beyond the render quality, many stills have issues as well, though. There's a lot of poke-through, which means there are spots where you can see the surface below (usually the skin) through the surface that's supposed to cover it. That happens very frequently with clothing and sometimes with hair as well. There's the occasional occurance of DAZs well known "black teeth" lighting issue, at other times teeth are so white it would put tothpaste advertisements to shame.
In quite a few scenes, either the background or objects in the scene behave quirky, jumping around between renders or even just disappearing.
Sometimes the artist didn't bother at all and you get the default gray DAZ background. It's not rare for limbs "sinking in" a grasping hand disappearing it whatever it was grasping, or a foot "clipping" through the ground. In one scene in an aircraft, there's even a gaping hole in the "hull" of the plane where the artist didn't align the pieces properly.
The frequency of all this is downright alarming and showcases utter lack of attention to detail in this area.

I dabbled with DAZ myself, and all of this can happen too easily, so a few occurances, I could easily forgive. However, such issues are so frequent in this game that I have to deduct a point for it, followed by another one for the artist appearently just not caring about it. It's easy to fix, but obviously he doesn't give a rats arse. Too bad.

To sum it up, if you can live with ntr, I feel TAC is worth playing, but should be played in a way that you are constantly "distracted" and can't / won't pay too much attention to the game's production quality issues.
Once you start to notice those, they are so frequent as to be impossible to ignore, unfortunately.

NOTE: As this is a review, there are a number of spoilers ahead. You have been warned.

More appropriately titled, "The Cheating Wife, Clueless Cuckold" has now become "Prostitute Wife, Clueless Cuck."

Ch 15 (aka TAC2) is complete trash. Writing is elementary, with spelling mistakes in nearly every line. The graphics look horrible. They have lost their shadows and lighting. Everyone looks like plastic models.

The WORST: Regardless of how you played the first section of the game, you are forced to choose between cuck and sharing. This, of course, has no impact on actual gameplay as Anne immediately goes out on her own on their first night back. Anne cheats with the MC's father and has no regrets. She keeps that a secret. And now that secret is used against her to start prostituting herself for another trashy character and relative of the MC. Unbelievable garbage.

Update: The latest update added the remaining days of the vacation and updated content to previous chapters. Added content attempted to make Anne more likable and add some girl-girl scenes. It ended up breaking the majority of the game. But I commend the developer on taking the time to update previous content and add scenes. The new vacation content was horrific. Five days of watching the couple eat dinner. It would be a complete waste except for the addition of a great sex party. The most notable change is the developer writing in a complete "honesty" reset where the couple comes clean on all their misdeeds and forgives each other. The user is not privy to what was discussed in that conversation, only that all is forgiven. No clue what that means for the future. Despite Anne claiming she wants honesty and more involvement from her husband, she immediately continues her affair with Ryan. I guess we will see what happens...

First, the animations, models, and CG are passable. The characters are all detailed and very attractive. (Yes, <sigh>, the dicks are all ridiculously large.)The sex scenes are burning hot fires! Anne is one of my favorite characters to look at... And that is where the love affair ends.

A happily married, very much in love couple has decided to spice up their love life. They agree to slowly move together toward activities that will heat up their own already passionate, lovemaking — following some simple rules. They will not push the wife to do anything that makes her uncomfortable. They will always play together, appeasing the husband's desire to watch his wife have sex. And they agree to always be truthful with each other. Nearly all swingers follow these rules without fail; it is what keeps swingers happily married.

By the fourth day, I was fed up with Anne's character. She has already broken all of the rules AND lies to her husband repeatedly. Regardless of how vigilant the reader is at keeping Anne faithful, she will cheat every time, get angry when she is denied the chance to have sex with anyone (leading to a game over), and is just generally unlikeable.

Both Anne and her husband repeatedly emphasize their love and attraction to each other and the importance of staying together. The MC is in love and very proud of Anne, yet is consistently and repeatedly betrayed. Anne's betrayal cuts deep, not simply having sex with multiple partners unabashedly, but truly betraying the husband with the men she sleeps with. Do not be distracted by all the options and the gorgeous CG -- this is a cheating wife/cuckold husband game.

The story fails at several points. Despite the author having placed many options for the MC to reign in Anne's behavior, any actual attempt to do so ends the game. It is possible to prevent the husband from cheating. It is also possible for the couple to avoid having sex with each other for nearly the entire game with no effect on gameplay. It becomes apparent early on in the game that the only purpose is that Anne has sex with as many people as she possibly can, regardless of how it affects the story.

The most unfortunate aspect of having Anne sleep with everyone she comes across (quite literally) has to be that the super hot sex scenes become mundane. Anne meets an ex-lover on the beach, has crazy sex, falls in love, and adds him to her harem. There is no cost, no risk, she just has sex...again. The latest addition causes the most concern. On a vacation that Anne plans to honor her husband and in celebration of their anniversary, they unexpectedly get caught up on a swinger's cruise. To no surprise, and to great detriment to the story, Anne sleeps with nearly all the men on the cruise and falls in love with one of her former lovers. The husband raises concerns to no avail. AGAIN, there must be a way to incorporate these hot sex scenes into the loving couple's story so that they can enjoy it — together! Instead, we find a husband searching for Anne, who is sleeping with another lover, again.

I want to love this game. And if the author had followed through with the swinging route that he implies, this game would be in my top three! So many possibilities to have the MC involved in hot sex scenes and they are always usurped by Anne's cheating. If the reader had the ability to choose a "faithful" path, where the hot sex scenes occurred between husband and wife with other partners there to satisfy the couple, this story would be a huge success.

At this point, I would rather see the MC cheat and stick with his gorgeous ex-girlfriend, Emma. At least Emma sees the errors of her ways, apologizes for past behavior, and professes her undying love for the MC. And that is the reason this hot. steamy, beautiful game goes limp and gets an "average" rating.

Definitely one of the best games I've ever played. Love how almost every choice changes the story slightly to make a unique experience for almost everyone. Art is more than passable. Really like the stats corner too. Overall a really good game in regards to swinging/sharing.

Review as of: CH14 Monday

This game has gone downhill...

There's not much swinging or equal rate of sex action, the wife gets it all. So, it's aimed at NTR, cuckold, sharing lovers.
The only way for the husband to have some pussies is by cheating. He even barely get to fuck his own wife.

Scenes are getting uninspired, dialogues are booooooring and renders are mediocre at best (horrendous facial expressions) and horse dicks.

Except for some lovely ladies with nice body shapes. Kudos on the various and sexy outfits though.

Animations : watch out if you are subject to seizures...

EDIT: It seems that the game was initially supposed to be called "The Cuckold" according to the save folder. Hence The adventurous couple is misleading.

verry nice ill cant wait to play the next part. maby with a little mod bdsm or group acton . renderings are good some little graphic mistakes but its more than okay . the storytelling is also great . thank you for this great novel

Maybe I’m not exaggerating when I say, this game is a basic requirement for NTR lovers. Personally I found many instructive elements in it, so it's also worth a try for those, who are not really open for this topic.

A little brief introduction for the new ones. The game is about a married couple who have been living together for years, and they still love each other very much, however their sex life have already became boring. Then the husband (The MC) brings up his old desire again, to involve a third person in their relationship. This is where the story begins..
The game will unfold pretty slowly step by step, and it wont rush you with a bunch of NTR content. Just like when you put an ornamental fish in a bag of water into an aquarium. The story builds up pretty well, so you won't be able stop the reading.

In fact, I could list for hours why this game is so good and why it’s worth to try, but there is about 80 review already before mine, where these benefits are described. But there are many negative posts too, especially in the comment section ...more than what a developer needs. The game has received a lot of criticism lately, and many of them I felt unfair.
Personally I don’t think it’s the Dev’s fault that this game is going in the wrong direction. It’s rather ours.. The problem is not there when a lot of people describing their ideas, because if they are useful it's always come in handy. The problem is that after each update a multitude of dissatisfied people flood the page. But since we are not the same, there will always be someone who is not satisfied.
When the dev reads these critiques, we are not motivating, but rather demotivating him. No surprise then if his mood will goes away from the sequel.

Unfortunately the game has reached that state, when you feel on the story the dev is working under pressure, and he trying to satisfy everyone ...And the result is a multitude of empty dialogues and some sex scenes which no longer have any effect on the reader. Thx to us, the game became soulless. But I don’t want to join the ranks of critics, so I won’t go into detail more about the negatives what we caused.

My goal is for this game, to regain its old feel, so I give a piece of advice to the Dev.
I suggest to return to those parts and chapters, when he was making the game with full heart, and when the game was in its heyday.
But first, the game needs a good meaningful story, and instead of the many pop-in characters whose names we forget in 2 minutes, we rather need constant actors.
I am thinking of characters, who we will remember until long time.
It is important that we get to know their personalities and characteristics, and they must be a constant part of the story. They can be old friends from the past, or we can get to know, and meet new ones.
I'm not saying Ryan should return, because I feel his story is closed already, but even he is an option. Not each of them needs to be a rival for the MC, but if one of them would fall in love in Anne, that would be even more interesting.
It is important yet, that these new friends do not be a "female magnets", because there were already enough handsome boys, and machos in the game, and I find them too boring.

About the sex scenes.. I guess, sometimes the less is more. This game is partly ruined by because in the last chapters it only consisted of pointless fucking.
It is important to develop some kind of attachment between Anne and the other guy, because I think we saw enough emotionless sex in the game already. The story needs to be build up step by step until they get to the sex. We may see a cheating scene less often, but in the end it will have a bigger impact. Then finally the emotions will surface, just like the erection while we peek them.

I hope this game one day gets the old again, and will continue for a while. I played more NTR game already, but The Adventurous Couple always remains special to me.

A very good game with a great concept, I love these kind of stories where you focus more on the women and the graphics and renders are awesome. This is one of my favorite games here on f95zone and i strongly recommend playing it.

As it was written below, it feels like the author has run out of ideas.
In my opinion, the story lacks some kind of intrigue, scandal ... or jealousy.

Everything became too boring and bland.
The game turned into a brainless sex marathon, with monotonous characters and meaningless sex scenes.

After the first couple of updates it was going great. Probably one of the better hotwife games around and a couple doing what they could to spice up their sex life.

Then it seems the dev ran out of ideas for that and just decided on making another cheating wife simulator.

By this latest update it's not so much an adventurous couple, it's more a sluts daily life. It's even at the point she's getting feelings for other guys so the couple part isn't going to last long.

I find it strange saying this in a game with so much sex but it's got boring. It's predictable, sex scenes are more or less the same thing with a different guy and if you started playing to see an adventurous couple then you came to the wrong place.

Even worse if you catch her cheating and call her out on it, she gets mad at you and the husband just gives in.

She's taking enough dick to put prostitution out of business and the husband gets 1 little sniff of something on a rare occasion, just gets to watch his wife fuck around on those she doesn't sneak around on.

tl;dr, it started off great but turned into a bland mess. Adventurous "couple" won't be a couple for long and she bounces from one cock to the next like some weird porn pinball.

Hello, I am using a translator so please be indulgent in advance. This is the game I have played the most and just for that I would like to thank the dev. The first time I got a game over. The next one I let it go and I started to hate Anne. And for the first time I thought of her at other times in my real life. I restarted the game once more trying to balance the possible choices but I, like each of us obviously, received small stabs according to the sentences or the choices of Anne. What exactly better work of art makes you feel the feelings of the main character? Reading a lot of the last comments confirms this impression. We are all obsessed with new updates as we are passionate about the fate of our favorite characters in the cinema or elsewhere. And many regret what Anne becomes or what she could become. What about us in there? We allowed, suggested, encouraged, tolerated, accepted so many things ... And that's how it's going to end? Maybe ... The choice will fall to the author who has accomplished a titanic work and whom I thank once again for having made me feel a little what an adventurous couple is going through.

The game is fun but pretty much all aspects of the game are a mixed bag.

Renders vary from good to cheap, luckily the most prominent ones look good. (the game is a bit older so newer games tend to look much better). Backgrounds are generally dull.
Ann has a bit too many hours in the tanning salon for my taste and often looks to have weird make-up but she looks good most of the times.
Same for animations, they vary from good to an excorsist scene.

The story is great though the pace is too fast for my taste. She practically goes from good wife to full blown slut almost overnight. A bit more tension building wouldnt hurt the game. Despite that I still enjoyed it.

You meet tons of characters and most have little to no development. I get the while fuck a stranger thing but it's just too much, they often also look terrible.

All in all and enjoyable game Despite it's flaws

An enjoyable experience with an attractive wife who is keen to explore her sexuality. All of the models in the game are hot and the sex scenes are done well. I'm all for NTR content as long as it is temporary or there is no risk that the women develop feelings for the non-player characters. That is one risk for this game as the story develops.
I look forward to more from this developer.

Version Played: Ch 12 (I think...)

Here is a game that knows exactly what its players want and leaves the jerking to them.
While I'm not a super huge fan of Anne's model, the content is very hot and the game sets things up for her adventures very well without the endless teasing and blueballing games like this often have.

Positives
+ Hot content and a lot of it!
+ MC can choose to bone other people as well so everyone is having a fun time

Negatives
- Some of the dicks are freakishly huge -- it goes from hot to silly pretty quick (I don't hate it tho)

If you're into sharing/corruption/hotwife, this is the game for you.

Note to Devs! Looking forward to future updates!
