VN - Ren'Py - Completed - The Point of No Return [v1.0a] [DS23Games]

The implausibility of this story forces me to give this a less than 3 rating. I'll explain why on the flip side.

The good:
Beautiful renders, especially of the women
Renders of the men are better than usual
Diversity of body types

The bad:
The plot is pretty abysmal

I like female-MC NTR, but usually, there is a motivation that makes the NTR plausible. For Torrid Tales, it's space aliens. Silly, but I can work with it. Stories rooted in the Male MC's choices, abuse, or inattentiveness. No problem.

But the NTR here is just because the narrative dictates it. If the criminals actually drugged and raped the mother and daughter, fine. That's one narrative approach. Not NTR, but plausible.

But, the narrative wants her to choose to be fucked. The mother has a history with the main villain, but her previous experiences do not weigh on her feelings about him. She is constantly being portrayed as secretly desiring him, even though past and present experiences would dictate the opposite. His big cock is just not a good enough reason.

Yes, the excuse of protecting her daughter is advanced as one reason, but that would be out of fear, not desire. Getting drunk doesn't make someone horny unless they are already horny. Alcohol is a depressant, not ecstasy. If they used alcohol and drugs to make them compliant when they rape them, that's a plausible narrative choice.

My main problem is that the main villain is portrayed as some kind of anti-hero, whose cock is just so splendiferous that he will be able to fuck her b/c she desires him, without raping her. Therefore, the female narrative is written to give him what he wants. She has no agency, she's simply following his script.

Making matters worse, it is written as a slow burn, with very little fap content. Whatevs. It just makes no sense and takes me out of the story. There are plenty of better-written NTR stories with more fap content out there than this, so I'll take a pass. I have a hard time fapping to what little sex content there is when I'm throwing Cheetos at the screen.

This game does not disappoint.
The updates are fast.
The content is top-tier.
The size of the compressed game is super reasonable.
Multiple choices.
Lots of sex scenes.
Hot character models.
Hotter dream sequences.
Corruption is paced correctly
Etc...
Very VERY good job on this one, author. Thanks for making it.

[v0.19]

This is a great fap game for corruption lovers. Absolutely don't play this if you want to "win" as the female or something absurd like that. It all leads to her downfall, you just pick the flavor.

I'm honestly baffled by people who rate games based on some weird expectation they formed on their own. One person rated it 1 because they were "sick to their stomachs" at the theme lol. Wow this is a porn site, not some SJW reddit group. I think the overview and tags are pretty clear on what you will see in this game.

Basically, there are 3 paths. Stay defiant all the way and the attention of the thugs will go towards the daughter, corrupting her. Be submissive all the way and mom and daughter will be corrupted together. Pick something in the middle (sometimes defiant, sometimes going along), and the mother will try to protect the daughter and take all the harassment by herself, most likely getting corrupted in the process. If you are unsure of which path you like, you can play the game until the first dream sequence to see the direction the game will take if you stay the course.

The models were not really doing it for me at first, but they kinda grew on me. Some dream sequences show you the girls all dolled up and they have potential to be really hot. Not digging the 20 earrings on the daughter, but it's not too visible in most scenes.

As for the plot, it's kinda original. Honestly though, the dev is spending lots of time developing the thugs and their fugitive status, but I have no idea how this will play out. It basically serves as an excuse to put the thugs in the house and setting a time limit where they will move out when the coast is clear. Maybe there will be something more stemming from this plot thread.

Now the meat of the game and the most important aspect. The H content. It's pretty good. It's kinda like a western spin on a japanese style corruption scene. There is some nice set up and non penetrative sexual acts that is great for edging. The fact that the leader of the thugs are insisting on a slow corruption rather than just raping them seems a bit meta rather than realistic, but hey, it works as far as corruption is concerned. The only gripe I have with the writing is that the dev uses internal thoughts of the girls too much. They could tone this down and get the same message across visually when possible. The girls thoughts also give rise to a problem of them seeming to be corrupted too easily.

Still, as far as female protagonist corruption goes, this is a great entry for those who like males forcing the girls to undergo corruption. The main strength being that the situation the girls find themselves in is quite dire. They can't just leave, so even though they seem to be getting corrupted rather easily, it doesn't exactly feel like they are just willingly going to the back alley to be molested and corrupted like most female protag games.

v0.19

Waste of time as of now.
It gives an illusion of choice somewhat, you either choose to have the mother, daughter or both do "favors" for the fugitives that is invading your house, but what happens goes basically the same either way you play it.

Plot as well as characters doesn't make much sense either. With tags like this, any other game/VN could contend to be the darkest, most deprived shit you would find on this site. But instead you have three clows bumbling around two+ women in a house with nothing standing in the way to humiliate and sexually abuse them, and while they kinda do so, they do it badly and makes it very boring for players to slog though.

The first real sexscene of the playthrough you get as of now is between the "muscle and no brain" guy and a third chick they take hostage. It doesn't evoke any emotion whatsoever be it unpleasant or arousing. They just do it, and the chick accepts it surprisingly easy despite having been kidnapped only hours earlier.

The scenes with mother/daughter or both is hardly worth mentioning and why dev hasn't done any more hardcore scenes yet is kinda baffling.

The whole VN is complete milquetoast with nothing special going for it and with each update feeling smaller and smaller.

Images and models are nothing special but looks nice enough, though I have to say it falls in the same trap as many other on this site. Some models look too different, like they are modeled for two completely separate realities.
(think Kratos suddenly showing up in Smash bros...)

I only give 1 star to completely unplayable games, but this one comes dangerously close because of sheer boredom.

So you know what? Actually disregard to 2 stars and consider this one 1 ½ stars instead.

I admire the way the developer creates and structures the dialogues, as well as a great decision to show resignation to the path of corruption through dream sequences! I found it very smart and insightful! something the Marquis de Sade would be proud of!

the plot develops slowly, but it is necessary to be credible! I admire the effort of the developer!

It is started in a nice way.
then of course the game immediately made clear that it would be the standard homogenized tasteless repeated pattern of safe story that won't excite even an inmate with life-time sentence.

it is fine, it is part and parcel of nowadays "creativity" that of course affect adult scene as well.

I just want to say, there was more adventurous and hardcore adult stories in 1970.

Happy day, let's enjoy this "new but the same" recycled boring game.

Interesting premise, but fails to deliver on it.

I tried multiple (often diametrically opposed) responses, but ultimately most things play out the same either way.

You only get about 10 or so choices in the current build, and all they change is who gets involved in the various scenes. Usually its essentially your character (the mother) or her daughter. Many scenes also pass by without any input from you.

I get that its emulating not having much control over the situation, but it just fails to engage.

The villains don't really act any differently based on what you do. The story is basically on rails, and you just get to pick if the scene involves the Milf, the daughter, or both.


The dialog is also awful. As are a lot of the scenarios. A couple puffs of pot are not going to make a girl that just got kidnapped willingly have bare sex with her kidnapper.

The story would have worked a lot better if the villains came across as actual threats, not just horny clowns.

Finally, it (mostly) has typically awful models. They're not the worst, but they (particularly the muscled guy) are just ridiculous enough to rob what little gravity the writing may have failed to murder.
Only exception is the daughter. I like her model, but they fail to make the most of it, so it doesn't get more points for that.

Overall bland and forgettable. The only noteworthy quality being having an interesting premise that it fails to do justice.

A pretty solid VN with three main routes. You can basically pick who you want to be the focus of the bad guys sexual antics.
The mom
The daughter
Both mom and daughter.

Why anyone would not pick both is beyond me.
The updates are small but come fairly quick.
Both the render quality and the writing are pretty good.
As of 0.18 there is about two to three hours of content and lots of sexy scenes.
Based on the events so far it looks like we'll get to see some reluctant mother daughter action down the road as well as impregnation being a possibility for the girls.

All in all a solid VN. Looking forward to more.

The Point of no return is a story of blackmail, hostage situation, sexual harassment, kidnapping and... you get the point. It's dark focused on actions with unwilling participants, so if that's not your thing then don't play it.

The overall story of fugitives taking shelter in Jennifer's (mom) home is a bit reliant on... I guess you can call it a suspension of disbelief, while not exactly so outrageous that you'll think there isn't any hint of reality in it, it leaves something for you to ignore if you want to continue with the narrative and this is further escalated with scenes that add more characters into the mix further on (which I won't spoil). BUT its focus on the scenes at hand, and the timing of decisions really pull you in, and only when you stop playing or think about the overall story do you really see the flaws, so it's really a non-issue.

Speaking of choices, this game so far has 3 paths:
a) "Please don't touch my daughter, take me instead" - that's the jist of it, as the mom is the main protagonist you can try and avoid them getting their hands on your daughter, it doesn't mean she's entirely safe, but you'll get most of the action.
b) "Fuck you, I'm not doing what you tell me." - A defiant choice, but you forget that your daughter is also in the mix, and instead they'll go for her instead.
c) "Ying and Yang." Defiant at times, cooperative at others. This choice features scenes with the main character (mom) and the daughter.

This of course means replaying the game, but if you start a save for each path then you'll be able to continue each path with each new version.

Speaking of versions, and although it's not affecting my rating, I've had minimal problems with save compatibility and the progress has been interesting each time.

So why the 5 star rating?
"Is the art mindblowing? The characters? The content? WHAT IS IT DAMN IT?" - You might ask.
And I'd respond with... How dare you talk to me in that tone, do you know who I am?!?!

Just joking. But in all seriousness, there isn't one exceptional point that singlehandedly blows this game's score to 5 stars, instead you have a mix of quite great art, great characters which the interactions they portray are solid and follow a nice path (unless you're trying to make choices that don't really match your previous ones), a great focus on the nervousness of the choices each character takes, along side with the shyness or embarrassment / reluctance of it all. Doing all of this without getting overtly dark and depressing, it manages to continue to push the characters into more depraved situations with a great pace, while maintaining the mood / tone that was set by previous versions.

Is it the best game ever? No. Are there better ones? Sure. Does it do an excellent job for the story it is trying to tell? Yes.

Reviewed Version 0.18.
PS: I got rushed into finishing this as I had to go, so I didn't really re-read it, so excuse any typos or things that don't make much sense

WOW! where to start? this is what you call a rape fantasy corruption game done RIGHT. The story is very unique, which was refreshing. You play as the mom who's trying to protect her daughter from intruders who's invading your house. You are force into situations where you and your daughter is sexually harass and, yes, choices actually have different outcomes depending on what you do or say. There seems to be 3 paths you can take: 1. Your daughter gets harass, 2. You protect your daughter from getting harass, 3. You and your daughter gets harass. This is set up so well, with the realistic approach of being a hostage in your own home, that your choices is more impactful because it has weight. It's how choices, done right, should be, props to the creator. I like this game a lot more than I thought I would and I highly recommend to people that like corruption games or if you're into rape fetishes. Can't wait for more updates!

I do rather like this game. The story is fresh, and is not a clone of anything. There are some points about it where I can understand where others have not given it a stellar review. The female protagonist model for instance is not a solid 10 with over flowing sexual market value. Well, there is a point to that as she is more of a cougar / milf now that has aged gracefully, but also gotten a little chubby. They do show her younger teen form which was a total cutie. I'd love to see the teen version of her get her own story some time. It does have a non-consensual theme to it, but at the same time it's not rushed. A slow burning rape story is not common, and an interesting change of pace. The fact that choices have consequences one way or another is good. I don't think this will be everyone's cup of tea, but if you like it as I have described it then this is a game for you.

Another AVN where the writer chooses to make the women as stupid as possible and I'm sick of it.

Story -- Nothing worse than a story that makes you sick to your stomach. I already hate AVN's that force people against their will, but this story is doing it in worst way possible. I guess you can't have a story like this unless the women are stupid (What I mean by this is the woman says to herself that she has no choice when in fact she does) It's stupid that she would stand up for herself and just a few hours later she will allow debauchery that is exactly the opposite. 0/5

Renders -- Renders aren't bad, but not the best either. 3/5

Animations -- If there are any I couldn't bring myself to watch any of them N/A

Other -- If you like games that force people to do things against their will. Also if you like that a writer gives you no way out then this is the game for you. Most games like this would allow you a choice on what way you want to avoid. No such thing in this game. Fuck I'd rather them kill me instead of going through that shit.

Overall -- 1/5

-- Rannell

the most silly thing I have seen in a game I have seen in this game. three ex-prisoner men who escaped from prison kidnap two beautiful women mother and daughter, imagine the sequel .... many sex group sex and much more. no, absolutely nothing happens, not even a serious sex scene, ex-prisoners are very pure characters and they have done nothing to them . this crazy story is the story of this game. I think the developer of this game is making fun of us. he knows that we really want to see sex scenes and he makes fun of us. but we have understood him and I give him a star, if there is an option for zero star I think he deserves zero.

I gave it a 2 for the concept and characters but execution of it is really poor in my opinion.

Game tells us fugitives, on the run, desperate not to get caught have taken a mother and daughter hostage ....... and then it devolves into nonsense.

After that it just turns into a really slow burning corruption game.

Considering the police and whatever other agencies are hunting them and her own husband is due home they have no urgency about them whatsoever.

Just taking their time, slowly trying to corrupt a couple of girls instead of, I don;t know ... fucking escaping.

At this point i'm pretty sure the only thing they are guilty of is stealing a bag of sweets from the mall and the only authority looking for them is the overweight mall cop wheezing into a brown paper bag while he tries to break into a fast stroll.

On top of that you get 2 choices really. You can eithet do what they say or sacrifice her daughter to them, choices mean relatively nothing, there is no getting out of anything but it doesn't matter because nothing is happening anyway.

Having a slow burn corruption game is fine but not when the entire plot and setting is calling for a bit of urgency. It just makes it all look ridiculous.

Edit -Dropped a star from it and brought it down to 1.

17 updates in and it's going nowhere. Considering the plot, it's been at a standstill since the start and hasn't gone anywhere since. Dev doesn't seem to know what he's doing and has the wrong plot entirely for the game he's trying to make.

Absolute waste of time.

Excellent game, excellent graphics. I hope the storuly continues accordingly. Big fan of the daughter, Not so much of the mother, it would have been better two have two daughter to spice things up. I gues the daughter's friend will comw into play eventualy, not a fan of her.

This game doesn't have much content yet (the story is just starting up). But from what I saw it looks like a solid NTR / cheating story is building here and I'm totally in for it! Renders are pretty nice too, cant wait to slut up the main wife and daughter!

A very promising start. Looking forward to frequent updates. The story has a solid foundation for development. good pacing, interesting models,
seems to be a lot of great directions where this can go.

Played it so far and my personal opinion is:

Pros:
- really solid graphic
- hot story of blackmail, domination and so on
- fem protag
- fem protag has freckles and hot curves/nicely shaped
- lovely sex scene
- decisions

Cons:
- all guys beside husband are imo way too muscular
- daughter has a pretty face and hips, but that hair tho... and she doesn't look really like her father or mother
- fem protag hair are okay but could be at least a bit longer (wuld be nice)
(-quite short would have liked to play more hehe)

this enemy A-Team should be more like this: one muscular big and dumb guy, one very thin middle age guy, and one old guy but trained guy (but not too much tho xD), (sorry for the A-team comparison lol)

would also like to see more other guys or will this game be focused around the quite hot mother (the not that fitting daughter) and the 3 thugs? quite curious. keep it up

Playing the 0.1 release.

I can't think of any criticisms at this time. I love how it can go towards corruption of the wife and/or corruption of the daughter.

I did not encounter any bugs.

Did not encounter any animations. Animations don't matter much to me.

There was not much content, as this is more of a demo/intro/teaser.

Excellent models, interesting premise, solid dialog, and meaningful pacing for a very short demo.

+ good start,
+ good art,
- just a few choices,
- no virgin even its tagged as one
- little to no content

Summary: For a 0.1 version it have less content that a pre alpha demo. Gameplay = +/- 2 minutes

EDIT for 0.17:
It had a good start, but now its just another of these games where the girl think "I cannot do anything so just fuck me and my daughter."
