your renpy version is not correct
best solution is to download the latest complete version of the game

Hmm, tasting a friend's girlfriend is an interesting topic for a VN. I played the intro and I liked it, no threesome, no anal, no spanking. But oddly enough, the rest of the game is boring as hell.
If this was just an adventure with a couple of friends to go camping with different endings and all, that would be pretty cool, but... Ugh, c'mon, I don't feel like I'm ever going to play this VN again.

Ironically, half of posts here in this thread are dudes claiming that they totally hated the intro and that they just dropped the game without even moving on to the first chapter because of it.

The other half of posts are people asking about the bear in the forest maze.

:devilish:

Man, you dudes gotta get a grip on yourselves. First of all, it happens in the game prologue; secondly, the other dude is her longtime boyfriend: he's sharing her with MC.

I really can't understand what's your damn problem with occasionally random sharing scenes, mostly when the male MC is the "third person" and he/she not the one who's sharing his/her partner.

In fact, after the prologue, you won't meet any men and all the girls will, one way or another, belong only to you. But the main problem with this game is not even the sandbox (that's bearable), but the way the current version of the game has ended. It's a perfect example of when the author didn't think through the concept and plot of his game beforehand, and ten updates later it suddenly dawns on him that he took a wrong turn and has to break and build all over again.

Alternatively, you can use the "Skip" option in the game settings, (except for the choices in the dialogues), and then use fast-forward (Ctrl key) to avoid playing content you're not interested in.

It's been a while since I started a new playthrough of The Patriarch, but if I remember correctly this is only part of the prologue. And, if memory serves, when you start a new game, you are asked if you want to skip the prologue. So I believe it is avoidable in that sense.

It will still have happened in the story, though. So, I can imagine that could still bother you. But you do have the option of not actually witnessing/watching it.

Just wanted to point out that it can be skipped, at least visually. In case that was all that was holding you back from trying the game.

The game certainly has its ups-and-downs and can at times be quite a grind if you're not into those management-type of games. For me personally though, Abigail (the redheaded girl) absolutely makes it worth putting time and effort into this game and working through all the bits I consider grindy.

I have no idea of what these "mothers implements" you are referring to are. If you don't complete all your daily tasks = game over.

I find it hilarious that you can find the tag "female domination" in a game titled "The Patriarch". Maybe, you should rewrite the title to "The Matriarch" or "The Simp Patriarch" :unsure::unsure::rolleyes::rolleyes:
