VN - Ren'Py - The Assistant [Ch.2.9] [Backhole]

I have say that this game really grew on me as it went on, though particularly liked the early days which is basically thought and hope the Game would be about Simple and Straightforward Personal Assistant type of work with Benefits

I have to say that animations and lewd scenes were intoxicating and kept me coming back after some circumstances (Namely Russian guy) storyline just pissed me off. I'm not a fan of violence in these AVN and don't want to have deal with that kind of Startling Anxiety.

I don't want to add that Backhole Games really put a lot of work into his settings and wet sex scenes particularly in Season 2. The Hotel Terrace and Collins Mansion where the MC works are particularly Well-Done.

All of that being said I am on Day 12 and I have to rate this 4/ 5 Stars for the Wide variety Sexual Opportunities and General gist of the Storyline as related to just plain S.E.X.

Just played it, had fun, liked it a lot, like to see more, interesting girls and milfs, story is interesting no plot holes. Open Endings with the characters but no open Ending with the main story. Hope to see an update or maybe Assistant 2?
5 of 5 Stars

The Assistant is one of those games that show their quality only late into the game.

There is a whole bunch of set up process for the harem that can be a bit drawn out.

The story itself is just there. Its nothing exiting. The characters themselves are also not very complex or deep.

What the game has going for it is one of the best maledom-themes on this site. It goes deep into intentional unequal relationship dynamics to a degree that is rare on this site.

Without being rapey or the MC having a shitton of money the LI submissive nature is exploited for the lust of both parties.

So for those that like maledom I can recommend to slog through the first 75% of the game. It gets good later on.

The animation is poor and unrealistic which really kills the game for me especially the actual sex scenes least the ones i saw other stuff like foreplay etc not quite as bad but still a bit dissapointing.

As of version 2.9
Overall, I think it's a good story and there are some very sexy scenes, the story is also good, the MC keeps corrupting the women around him and made me enjoy it a lot, even though it's not perfect, I think it's worth recommending it

Its not bad, the antagonist is good, the plotlines are good, doesnt feel too weird as a story line.

MC is a bit of a superhero but isn't untouchable, just like usual every woman swoons over him at first sight. The biggest thing I can say this VN has is a MASSIVE ORAL FIXATION lol. Every girl is a throat queen and they REALLY enjoy it.

LI's are alright, Beatri(x)z is definitively the best looking/model out of all of them. Clarice is a close second. Sasha is probably third. None of the other models really hold a candle to them in my opinion. Theres alot of flavor variety, around 12~ different characters and some side-gigs that are a one-off.

Story is pretty simplistic but the pieces atleast align, business and corruption and the MC getting in the middle of it by working for a richer family that ends up having a conflict, that then the MC takes part of due to his close relation/proximity to everything happening.

Tbh I would have probably given this a 5 as there isn't a ton of boring filler dialogue, time waste, and boring stuff that I really dont otherwise care about (ie: backstory or just general forgettable chit chat that doesn't do anything for the progression of the story, only to fill time) however the stuff that keeps me from giving it a 5 is.

1) It feels as if this is written by a non-native english speaking person and if so the translation isn't great. Leading to the writing being bad, however if it was cleaned up well and a bit more articulate it would be solid.
2) the constant fixation to call younger people "little one" carries that super creepy undertone, not a fan of that whatsoever.
3) the constant throwing of characters at the MC, wouldn't mind a bit of a challenge or some build up. Not automatic instant attraction with the illusion of choices.
4) Theres a good/bad mechanic at play but I just dont really see a need for it, doesn't really tie much to the story or choices atleast from what I could tell. Might be a future thing but just didn't really feel fitting at all, kind of a red herring in a way.

Game version: [Ch.2.8]

Some of the worst writing I have ever seen in a game. I'm not talking about the nonsensical plot or the stereotypical characters, it's the Google Translate level dialogue that is killing my brain cells. It's not just some typos or some bad grammar, playing this game is like watching aliens in skinsuits trying to imitate humans and failing spectacularly. If you think this game is a 4.5/5 you either don't speak English yourself, you just like to look at pretty pictures, or you literally can't read.

Chapter 2.8

Nice story, nice renders and some choice flavor.

I do wonder/worry how my relationships are going to be handled in the end, there are some characters I'm really caring about

Just like their previous game I loved playing it and I'm looking forward to the next releases.

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!
