VN - Ren'Py - The Inn [Ch.2 v1.01.05] [Lykanz]

For me when it comes to Honey Select games there's no real middle ground, either they're low effort trash or they're amazingly fun and addictive. By now I've tried quite a large number of HS games and I can safely say The Inn not only falls on the latter, but is one of the best I've played.

The thing that immediately stands out as soon as you begin are the renders. The developer is clearly very skilled with HS and knows what he's doing - from animations, to lighting, to poses, to hand gestures and character expressions, the attention to detail is nothing short of super impressive - in fact, you'd be hard pressed to find another HS game with better renders. I'm not going to comment too much on the story as I'm still in the early stages, but so far so good - it's well paced with decent writing and the humor captures quite a few laughs and giggles. The characters (girls) not only look great, but most importantly they all have well written personalities that is skillfully expressed through a combination of well-timed, exceptionally rendered scenes and quirky dialogues.

So yeah, despite minimal time spent with The Inn, it has already left a good enough impression on me to come here on this forum to give a 5 star rating and write a positive review (which I rarely do). Like other HS favorites of mine such as Once in a Lifetime, Now & Then, Depravity, and Ripples, this is a gem I'm willing to put on hold for a while till it's complete.

This is easily one of the best Visual Novel i ever played and i can swear i played a lot of them: it's very clear the developer it's experienced and has some skills. Judging by the averange level of other visual novels the technical department is top notch: renders are very good and i really liked the animations; probably the only downside is the story: this game doesn't shine with originality, i've seen other games with very similar plot (i can't mention them, forum rules). Anyway for me it's still 5 stars and probably it's woth doing a subscription since the developer seems to work consistently on the game.

The Inn delivers a packed and engaging amount of story content, which while might come off as over the top at first, grew on me and at the end of my current playthrough, left me wanting for more.

Overall an interesting story so far with visually appealing characters and a good choice of music with jokes and scenes that made me laugh. I look forward to future developments of the Inn.

I love pretty much everything about this game. Great animation, good story line threaded with a lot of oddball humor, innuendo and fantasy. Story kind of seems to be meandering a bit, but this game is still young, which is a good thing, as I'd like to see this story continue to grow and meander however the author feels it should meander - take us wherever you want friend, I'm down for the scenic route!

Good Points:
+ Very Good Graphics (Can be similar to DAZ3D)

+ Amazing Details (Virtually all scenes look good with a different frame with position or animation of face and body, this makes the characters and the world around them much more alive)

+ Easy Gameplay (It is not at all complex, in fact it helps you a lot with information and also tips, I would say that it is really unnecessary walkthrough)

+ Good Content (It has good content, it manages to get you a lot with the story and the characters making you spend hours admiring)

+ Beautiful and Sexy Girls (All of them are beautiful and each one has its own style, so for the player to choose their favorite: Milf, Tomboy, Cute and Sexy)

+ Good Writing (Easy to understand without many complications)

+ Good Humor (The humor inside The Inn is always welcome, you can become more and more familiar with playing, it’s not something exaggerated so it doesn’t get in the way)


Negative Points:
Nothing


Overall: The Inn is a game more different than I have seen, it manages to innovate a lot by making clichés in incredible content, almost everything in the game is well worked and hard, scenarios, animations, models, humor ... It is a lively and creative game. Lykanz is proof that there are creators who create their projects with love and care, not just thinking about money and doing it anyway. If you think about playing, go ahead and have fun, I believe you will not be disappointed.

This is a fun game. I'm not much a fan this kind of visual engine but in this game things looks quite really good. Renders and girls are beautiful. Lewd scenes are hot. I'm looking forward to the new updates in the future.

A really good game, i really liked the insane amount of humor and break of fourth wall, but i know that this isn't for every one, to be honest the only character that i find sexy and beautifil is val, but the other ones have their own special characteristics that makes them attractive for me. I am giving it 4 stars instead of 5 because of the lenght of the game so far, even the dev knows and joke about it, but it's true though, it could have much more content by now, considering that the first release was in feb 2018, it has like 3 hours of gameplay only , but keep it up with the good work dev

I love your game bro, good luck, waiting for more, beautiful characters, unlike some I found the story fun and the personalities really cool, keep it up

I like the very humid form of the stories, as well as the animations and very good rendering.

I enjoyed the writing and character. I appreciate the humor even if I don't get the references. The visuals are nice. Gameplay is minimal but that's ok for this kind of game. Overall a great job.

One major problem is the bugs. I couldn't continue after the cellphone unlock. A shame too, I wanted to keep playing.

This game is a masterpiece in my opinion. All the main characters are lovable and unique . The use of memes and Easter eggs make the game game very funny and enjoyable . The quality of the sex scenes are great . Although, there aren't many sex scenes involved at the moment I hope that will change in the future.

A fun adult VN filled with memes and 4th wall breaking self-awareness jokes of the cliche VN tropes and Japanese fictional characters stereotypes layered with a very simple but engaging enough plot and character interactions to keep the game interesting and not just consist of jokes and pornographic content.

The visuals and character design are well done with an extra effort from the dev to add animations outside just the sex scenes which are well done. The writing and dialogue are well written especially considering that the game is mostly jokes and satire but still manages, for the most part, to balance the character's development and emotional interactions parts.

Overall I found the game very entertaining, with likable characters and light-hearted humor.

Oh, my gosh. This game is so damn good!
The writing is just spectacular! A swear the writer is gifted. So funny, and great character development and interactions.
The girls are HOT!! I mean, damn! LOVE Linda Mae!!!!! <3 <3<3
Val is smoking, Luana has a certain, je ne sais quois that I adore, and Joanna has MASSIVE FUCKING TITS!! (I like me big boobies!! <3)
Overall, I can't wait to see how this develops. It has so much fucking potential!!!
Keep up the incredible work, dev. You DA MAN!!

PROS
Clean renders
Decent story
Sexy ladies

CONS
HUGE HUGE error message when making the decision during the movie night

Over all this is a good VN. I played through it back when it had the Halloween stuff in it. Lost track of it since then. I'm glad that was removed. It made no sense and messed up the flow of the story. The error message kinda ruined it. I tried to ignore it, and rolled back. Neither fixed the issue. I'll probably wait and see if this is resolved in future updates.
I do recommend giving this one a play through because it's really a good story. A bit cliche, but good none the less. Keep up the good work

Very impressed can't wait to see what comes next character models look good and the animations aren't bad and the story is building up very well overall I think this game is going to be great hopefully it gets updated regularly and quickly

Man, it was quite hard for me to decide on the score for the game. The graphics are amazing and stunning and the story is quite engaging; the character models are also beautiful (aside from the MC who has a dipshit's face, similar to Max's Life and every other Honey Select game character, which bothers me for a reason). However, while the premise is quite good, there's nothing here to even play for; no H scenes aside from boob groping and the typical caught when masturbating, and that is something that let me down since the game's size is 1GB (I literally finished it in less than 20 minutes reading almost every dialogue) and the graphics are not so good as to justify the file size. I did like the Filthy Frank reference though, that made me laugh hard.

I'm eagerly waiting for the next update, but so far, it's just a good premise but an average game overall.

Its under my top list hot stuff

Just played it today amazing gals there
Though no real h-scene it gives you the vibe and you cant wait to jerk off amazing tease

There so many possibilities many options I hope when the next update comes out there will an NTR route and not

story wise its exciting and graphic holy moly the girls are unique and dont look the same

Cant wait for more 5 stars easily

Excellent game that I enjoyed very much, Great characters, great story, Great animated scenes. Loved the witty humour and dialogue and loved the 'small' (so small, don't blink yeh) joke about "POLITICS" it was sooooooooooo funny!!! Really would recommend this great visual novel as I only found it by chance and didn't regret for a second downloading it as I enjoyed every second of it and i'm pretty sure I will update my review in the future
Great work dev and thank you.

This game is starting really good, it is developing the characters slowly but surely, the memes are a hit or miss but that's entirely if that's up your alley, tons of jokes, most of them funny, that part was to mess with the dev, the characters have been likeable as of now with a more or less believable story, obviously way too soon to know if it will remain like this.

But really, a guy you just met giving you tons of money just because, that's 100% soap opera story-telling.

The Inn – breaking the 4th wall with pure undiluted lust

I've spent eons wandering the vast wastes of the internet seeking a lewd game to call home, much like the games main character I found myself going through the motions jumping from filth to filth hoping that my next jump would lead me home and to a meaningful climax (of quality storytelling) but alas I was left wanting. Then on the horizon I saw a blindingly bright building beckoning me towards it and as if by internet magic the sirens call threw me through the doors of The Inn and to the feet of Lykanz who took me aside & forcibly whispered the truths of the universe in the form of a truly lewd visual novel.

It's not very often that a game as remarkable as the Inn graces us with its presence but it isn't the ill omen that some of the less enlightened “reviewers” have branded it. The Inn is in fact a blessing on our impure community, its brand of madcap 4th wall breaking humor, pop culture references and memes is exactly what this scene needs, considering the sheer number of games here that take themselves a bit too seriously, but for those too busy or lazy to scratch the surface of this vn it tells a tale to which most people can relate of a man stuck in a rut and his struggle to make the best of a bad situation and change his fortunes when his ordinary life is shaken to its core (While also getting lucky). Lykanz has gone to great pains to craft a story line and a believable back story for the main character and has interwoven the Mcs fate with a host of skillfully designed, believable and well endowed women for us to ogle and in a surprising break from the tradition of only having gym sculpted female forms we've also been blessed with the mc's 'cough' Roommate and Landlady that have a little more to offer size wise meaning that there's something for everyone in this lewd fiction.

Addressing the elephant in the room...no not that pink one hes my drinking buddy, the update schedule for The Inn has been a point of much discussion recently but for those leaning towards Lykanz being lazy im sorry to disappoint you but this couldn't be further from the truth, in the months following the last release, Lykanz has worked tirelessly on user experience improvements to the game, improving the UI, streamlining the menus and in a step i've yet to see implemented in another Lewd Vn Lykanz has developed a system of auto updating the entire game, further re-enforcing just how dedicated he remains to the project.

While the game remains in its infancy, its potential is undeniable and I wait with bated breath “swallows a mint” for the next update and the next inevitable Resident Evil 4 reference.

This game has a particular type of jokes/humour which will likely determine whether you like the game or dislike the game. What you can expect in the humour department is 4th wall breaking, memes and random jokes (which you'll either laugh or cringe at).

A lot of it seems to be in your face like your character arguing with the writer himself or stopping to ask for directions from someone on all fours with a photoshopped face who screams "Your in the rice fields, ***********". However some of it is slightly less obvious such as the pictures on the walls or the TV changing to match your dialog. There's one section where you'll encounter a glory hole. Choosing to stick your dick in it will result in a scene with a character called "weird guy" showing up to look in the hole only to get stabbed in the eye by your dick.

Now if that sounds like your kind of humour then keep reading. If not don't waste your time and go find another game.

Outside of the humour the game has fantastic visuals with gorgeous lighting. The dialog outside of the humour seems fairly decent. A character you meet fairly early on called Linda Mae seems like more of the same style of humour as she is quite literally a stereotype country girl complete with the stereotype accent. The MC himself comes off as a bit of an asshole at least in the initial few days of the game. He's given the key to a run down abandoned house for free then bitches about it.

That's about all I can say about the game since I decided after the hilarious glory hole scene that I'd endured enough of the games humour to decide the game is simply not for me.
