    Maybe there's some good smut here if you can get past the awkward, unnatural dialogue and just generally subpar writing.

    At the very least the renders - the few that I saw - they were fine. Which I suppose bodes well if you're not one to care about the writing. S'just a shame I ain't that guy.

    One of the best games I've ever played. The character lines are built quite meticulously, the content is also a plus point for the game. The images of the characters created have depth. It must also be added that the Incest Patch itself also makes the game much more attractive. And even more special is the fact that the MC can dominate the ladies, turning them into pets and sex slaves and making them pregnant. Hope to see more exciting content in the future.

    It's pretty mediocre game overall. Yes, it has some good scenes and they are animated (though animations are pretty basic, but at least they exist), it has diverging paths (good/bad guy) and the main story developing around mafia is pretty interesting.

    On the other hand, dialog at some points is pretty bad, the renders aren't of the highest quality and the MC is this default big dick, muscular, perv guy with pretty much no personality. All the girls just can't wait to get into his pants (except for one exception and that exception gives up pretty fast). He seems like the savior of all girls, while being just.. plain.

    If you can ignore meh MC and subpar renders, then this game is worth trying.

    One of the best games, I have played so far. It covers my personal kinks. Special, the scenes with the nuns are top. Some parts with the girls are a bit rushed, but who cares in a porn game? ;-)
    Just the developer should be aware that communication with his patrons is important, when he wants further support.

    The Assistant is a game of hard tropes and while this in itself is not a negative by default, it does the story no real favors.

    Everyone from the sex starved wives, the cuck-victim brother with the wife that is an incel-level cardboard cutout, the young sweet niece and the crushing perv sister is rehashed and done before in different games with perhaps greater success.

    The mob storyline is a good framework but really demanding in the suspension of disbelief department.

    However, having said all that, the art is truly impressive and gets the job done and the amount of characters is just right in not making this too convoluted and cumbersome.

    So middle of the road rating from me and wishes for improved stuff in future projects.

    Stellar game. This VN is a very good one and I would recommend everyone who's interested to play it. The sex scenes are very good and there is a wide variety of women in the story.

    The story is quite simple. You are hired as the personal assistant of a wealthy family. You do all kinds of chores like driving someone to school and so forth. The family knows a Nun who works at a school for orphans. The maffia wants to demolish the school so they can buy the land for building projects. This is where you come in and try to help everyone.

    The writing is very good. Sometimes it feels like you're reading a good book. Everything is nicely described. I really like everything the game is going for and you even have some choices that influence the story. Nothing too major, but still some choices nonetheless.

    This is a project I will closely follow and for anyone who is hesitant on trying this game. Just do it, you won't regret it. Give it time though, it starts slow.

    A solid entry with plenty of content as of Ch 2.7. A variety of chicks to pick from, with plenty of encounters. Graphics are not cutting edge, but if that helps the dev continue to release updates, then all the better.

    Pretty good harem game with lots of kinks and variety. The biggest flaw this game has is the translations. There's a lot of awkward english like my dear cousin.. my dear friend... etc. There's also choices later on in the game that have not been translated at all from spanish? portugese? something like that. If you don't have a walkthrough you won't know wtf they mean. Also, the whole bad guy / good guy thing is another awkward english section. It's really more about a Love route / Corruption route, not so much necessarily being a bad guy (though some choices are definitely bad guy). I'd highly recommend using a walkthrough. Overall, great content, hot girls, lots of kinks, just really poor translations.

    beautiful models and i like the story, but it really needs a translation re-work. i commend the developer for trying, but there are so many translation issues that make you scratch your head and say "what"
    ex when you put Sarah in the car after getting high, the MC talks to the teacher about Sarah's illness "I don't think it's anything important" which should be "I don't think it's anything serious", there are little things like this throughout the game which takes me out of the immersion of the story. if they can fix these, they have a 5 star game

    I previously left a very harsh review on the other game this developer presented. I'm quite convinced of my reasons why. The dev didn't agree at all.

    Yet i must say i'm very positively impressed on how much his work improved in this one title. It's not perfect, there is something short of convincing, at least to me, in the overall plot and interactions, but still it's a decent, enjoyable story, the characters and the LIs are enticing both as phisical aspect and characterization, you have plenty of agency during the gameplay and it makes you want to keep playing. Not to mention, everything, this time, is very well cared.

    We hare lightyears ahead of Denos City, and sure the Dev treasured his previous experience.

    This time my sincere compliments.

    v. 2.6

    This VN is pretty meh.

    Renders is pretty low-quality and the dialogues feels almost robotic.
    Sometimes dialogue windows will be empty due to a bug or something, sometimes it'll be in spanish.

    My biggest issue is with the story itself, which i will clarify in the spoiler below.

    It's a really good game, well done, but I didn't get too hooked. sometimes thinking about the character(s) weighed down the narration and the behavior of the mc is particular... We can't create complex characters and it's their number that makes the story interesting, but the mc is not complex, he has very different behavior depending on the girls, can hardly be justified. the girls besides are superb and original, that's the strength of the game, its strong point and after all that's what we ask from a game of this type ^^ it's rare that I skip the dialogues but sometimes here I have done it, I admit, but very few times. I had time to see that certain sex scenes happened a little quickly while others took a while. But ! we don't let go of the game, he manages to keep us going, we don't really know how, but we do it until the end, and that's a sign of quality. the competition is tough, but this one has all the qualities you can look for, so don't hesitate!

    Just finished playing through day 11.

    Like most games on this site, at first it started out shaky, finding its own legs. By around day 5ish, it really starts to come together and take off, boasting a boost in story writing and game direction. Models are pleasing, although several models that belong in the same immediate family have widely varying skin tones, which i found to be quite odd, but not a deal breaker. The animations are so-so, nothing really special.
    The game tries to touch on various fetishes like femdom and maledom, but the content for both is pretty shallow and uninteresting. Thankfully for some of the more disgusting choices you can choose not to see them.
    The story starts off kind of lackluster but later picks up and is now fairly interesting.
    The Good/Bad point system though is where the game really breaks down. As far as i can tell, it only affects certain scenes, and knowing how it will affect anything (even with the little point increase hints) is a guess at best.
    It also seems pointless overall as it leaves it to individual critical choices as to branch splitting. For example if you choose NOT to take advantage of the situation where you confront Lisa about watching you and Sarah together, She will (angrily) remain on the sidelines and not join your BDSM club and pout about not being included. As with Sarah, for her best outcome you must choose to be Bad (bad point options) to bring her under control...

    4/5 from me, drop the good/bad point system (branching is fine), and improve your animations and scenes, keep up the good story, and its a winner.

    Started out really good, but when reading and seeing the new renders all expectations and interest of this game was gone.

    Average story, quite vanilla bad guy want something and mc needs to step up and resolve all problems. Nice that the prot/MC was not a badass from the beginning.
    A bit to fast paced for my liking but not bad.
    Everyone seemed to just throw the selves at the MC a bit to quick.
    Like the choices to able to actually not engage or perv out on the ladies in the game.
    Renders was okay but the change just killed my interest in the game.

    I'm someone not liking change, I would never spend money on a game on steam where the graphics are non consistent or the characters in the game changed from chapter 1 to 4th chapter. I know that's not a fair assessment and the final product will not have changed characters but for me they have changed and that is just not interesting anymore.
    There are way to many games here that will not change halfway in that I can play.

    Good luck to the creators, still not buying the age reason to change the whole game.
    Lots of anime games on steam with characters looking of dubious ages.

    Version: 2.5

    Game time: 3-4 hours? multiple paths so.

    Renders: probably a 3.5/5. Kind of grainy at the start but they certainly improve but they don't stand out.

    Story: again probably a 3.5/5. It is serviceable and interesting enough to keep you focused in between the sex scenes.

    So why 5 stars then?

    The characters 5+/5

    What a fun game with such a diverse cast!

    Normally having this many LI's would make each one feel shallow but here each one fills their niche pretty well.

    Something about Sarah (pigtails) has her as one of the hottest LI's in any VN i've played. It;s hard for authors to toy the line of a girl looking youthful without either being a loli or like one of those TV shows were a 30 year is playing an 18 year old college student. Sarah looks beautiful and young and her corruption feels less corrupt and more like a girl just discovering her sexuality which felt unique compared to many other games.

    The MC can seduce the girls or be a bit of a bastard but the cast is wonderful and wide enough you'll for sure find what you're looking for in this game.

    The renders are really hot, and the story doesn't try to take itself too seriously, which happens in a lot of games here. Really nice grammar which is kind of uncommon.
    So far it's completely worth playing

    Very good game if you like dominant MC and a lot of sub girls to play with. Story is not bad for porn game. Renders could be improved but still pretty good. Overall i would say its one of a better porn games around here.

    Based on Ch.2.5
    One of the worst games I ever encountered and competition is though... You play as "adult" with "brain" of teen on puberty hormone rampage... Add to that bad and incoherent writing and that's recipe for disaster, disaster named "The Assistant". For example, there is option for MC to say to some chick that he "loves" her, and literally next thing he does is banging some random cuguar behind her back (unavoidable). Yeah, true definition of love.
    There are lot of fake choices and unavoidable sex scenes, which makes this game even worse.
    Only good aspects are some of the models, which are indeed nice, and visuals in general, but that can't even remotely make this playable, at least for me.
    Definitely would not recommend to others.

    TLDR - A lot of scene's. Good for a quick fap. But dull writing.

    In the past I might have given this a 5 star, but standards of nsfw games keep going up so it's a 4/5. It's good but has flaws.

    what is gets right:
    • Good renders and scenes. (a lot of scene's).
    • Good optimization (no buffering or bugs).
    what it gets wrong:
    • The dialog. is. boring. To start it follows the ancient old formula. Introduction to new character > Look at cleavage or butt > Get caught > Lady feels flattered > Says "It's nice to meet you" (I didn't count but, this happened like 5 times in a row and all of them said "nice to meet you" after you stare at them.
    • I mentally switched off because of how dull the dialog was. Then comes the second problem. There are so many characters and I guess there is some development. But because there are so many you just go back and forth, back and forth, oh who's this now? Oh right, do I need to know this for the "story"? I guess not because I skipped all the dialog but I still get the gist of the story.
    Thinking about it, there in is the core of my complaint. If this was sandbox game where you're just randomly going around doing short stories with scene's. I'd probably think this game is incredible.

    But it is a VN, and it's actually trying to tell a story. I just have to conclude that the story is lacking. If I can skip through the majority of the dialog and still follow what's going on, then none of the writing really mattered.
