RPGM - Completed - The Day My Mother Made an Apology on All Fours [Final] [ODENsensei]

Relatively short but intense game. You can choose between two paths:
- boring vanilla love path
- exciting degrading path where he will force his mother do have sex with other people and humiliate her.

If you like the genre, you should go for it. The art is not the best but the second part is so kinky it's worth a shot(a lol)

If you're reading reviews I'm going to assume you're into: mom/son incest, corruption, impregnation, male dom, etc.... If true, man, this game is great*. Yeah, there's an asterisk there lol. I'll talk to that, but let me summarize the plot first:
It's a overdone plot, but many (like myself) still love it and the game delivers well. This could be thanks to the translation group (five stars by the way), but the story, writing, corruption path, and conclusions (I assume you saw the game was tagged with pregnancy...) are very satisfying. That said, you almost certainly have a good idea of exactly how this game will play out. This is where my hesitancy in giving this game 5 stars lies - it does very little to subvert your expectations outside of the genre. However, if you look at it for what it is advertising itself to be, it is great.

Yes, it is not animated. Yes, the game is "relatively" short (~1-2hr?). Yes, the writing isn't exceptionally inspiring. BUT - was anyone expecting it to be based on the description and previews? If I was writing a review for McDonalds, I wouldn't compare it to a 5-star restaurant in the heart of Paris. I'll tell you what this game did do: exceed my expectations. My expectations were not exactly sky high but if you've played a few of these games (genre, art style, etc.), you start to understand that these games are rarely well designed and often barely passable. This is not true for this game. Here are some areas where this game excels within the genre:
So yeah. Is it the best game on this site? No. Is it among them?.. Maybe, but only if you're quite into the specific kinks. Does it deserve 5 stars?.. I think I'd prefer to give it 4.5 stars, but that's not an option. I considered going down to 4 but I really think that's just harsh. Yes I would have preferred a true love path but the path that is there is a good one for those seeking it (most likely). So, this game is getting 5 stars from me by technicality. It's a must-play for fans of the aforementioned kinks. It's a should-play for most others. Understand going in that this game is really just trying to help you jerk off in a true, interactable game format. It's more engaging that visual novels (imo), but there are no complex mechanics or inspiring stories here. It may be odd to read, but I'm thankful for this. The game picked an objective and executed well on it, and nothing else.

The game is a little gem for fans of hard humiliation incest themes, even the "romance" path is quite hardcore so don't expect any lovey dovey stuff. ;-)

The pacing is perfect for a quick session, the art style great and the provided translation rounds it up perfectly.

The days in the game are rather straightforward and don't give any choices in how to do things. That is the reason it "only" gets 4 stars from me since it is really good but not perfect.

Still, I hope we see a lot more of this kind of games - especially dominant shota MCs!

As a 'Short' game it delivers in everything that it promises to be. While not complex or deep by any means it satisfies on what this game delivers to the player's kinks.

An erotic MILFy good time, three stars feel like a disservice as it implies to only achieve the bare minimum with issues that sometime detracts the immersion experience.

So I believe it earns full well its four star rating by virtue of delivering on what it promised to set out. Plentiful enough CG, spicy writing and sound design, it is a keeper to add to your library to enjoy breezing through now and again.

Underdelivers and didn't excite me.

Storywise, making 2 routes was a mistake. The MC is a cunt, and he continues to mistreat his mother even in the love route, there is no "love" in the love route, at least not from the MC. If anything, it should be renamed into the "non-sharing route", because this is what you gonna get.

The MC doesn't love his mother, he doesn't even call her "mom" in the post-game of the love route, for an incest game this is weak.
You could easily replace the mother title for his "friend hot's aunt" and wouldn't make a difference, because the MC is sadistic loveless psychopathic, and only cares about raping the woman that happens to be his mother.

And worse of all, the "love" route is just half of the game. You don't get to explore her exhibitionist side on the love route, like mating with her around the city, near that boy that had a crush on her, outside her husband's office, anything!

Underdelivers, the main mechanic is training the mother while the father is near but the game doesn't capitalize on that, he is not completely unaware of what is happening, THE GAME is completely unaware that he is there, he is not in the CGs (but one), he interacts with them during scenes only 2 times, so even the NTR aspect is underwhelming.

Overall, I just don't give 1 star because the game is not a broken grindy mess but I was soft during my whole 2 walkthroughs.

it has a pretty good art style its short and simple sadly i cant find the devs other games here plus they are japanese but overall the game is excellent i hope to find more the translation is a bit meh but ive seen worse

in its scope (very short and simple game) it is well done, funny and bad just the right amount.

has its own decent graphical style and is quite polished in gameplay

the different endings according to should have diversified more, instead they largely coincide (ending 1 and 2 differ in a choice at the end and the resulting epilogue)

I am a little surprised there hasn't been reviewed yet, so I figured I would write it. The game is exactly what one would think. This type genre of hentai isn't new, and this game hits all the tropes. The RPGM aspect is okay, mostly because it doesn't get in the way, but there is little to no game play. There are three linear paths with the NTR/slave one having the most content and taking about 1.5 hours. The other paths seem shorter and you can go through them at the end of the game through a gallery thing.

Art is okay, not the best but okay. Worth your time for a quick fap if you like these fetishes, otherwise stay away.

3/5 average DLSite fair

BUT Better than most because the translation isn't ML and it has mistakes but they aren't super distracting.
