Ren'Py - The Promise [v0.99B] [Xagrim's Gameforge]

Ireally like this game dunno why so many people complain about the grind , it's not that hard to get where you want, plus the animations are amazing, are more .the only downside not really updates for the char i like (lisa) but all in all its a nice game

Pros:

1- I tried really hard to find it, and found none.

Cons:

1- Renders, especially the characters look absolutely awful, which is a feat by itself, since even stock DAZ models usually look decent.
2- The grind present here is on a level of its own, which actually mildly impressed me.
3- Suffers from typical "Sandbox" Syndrome.
4- The sex scenes are absolutely horrifying to look at.
5- Buggy

I had my eye on this for a while, but kept putting it off for a few reasons:
1) The characters look hideous,
2) The game is incredibly grindy,
3) Every hour the character has to decide what to do, but most hours there is nothing noteworthy to do.

I decided that with this being version 0.4e I would finally take the time to give it a chance. After grinding for about an hour I finally got to a sex scene with the wife...
... which was less pleasant than anything I have ever seen ...
... and now I'm going to go scrub my eyes and brain with bleach.

The characters look bad enough with their clothes on, but are downright horrifying during sex.

Two stars because this is partially my own fault for playing a game with an "artistic" style that I found so unpleasant. If you enjoy the images presented in the rest of the game, keep going. If you do not, stop playing before it scars you.

My Rating of this Game (v0.45e ) is:

Pros:
+ Fantastic Renders
+ Easy Playing
+ Active Play
+ Nice Closeups
+Normal Looking Women
+ Great Hint System
+Great Milf

Cons:
- Grinding Game Play
-Repeating Scenes

Conclusion:
The Ladies look great.
They look like your everyday ladies walking around the Place,and no, I travel alot so there are not all models walking around.
Also like the hairy bush of the wife,makes it look natural,not everybody is walking around with a shaved pussy.
What could be better is the wife getting into the action,and I love the scene with Helen in the kitchen,with just the pussy rubbing,that was hot as hell,so near,but so far.
Plus a great Plus of the Game is the Regular updates of the Game.Great work from the Dev here.

One of the Top Games in my Book.

Damn worth the Download.......

If you can put aside the horrible grind (you repeat the same things all day every day for little to no content),the story not progressing maybe you'll like this game cause i sure dont (not in this state that it is right now).it had promise at first with different kinks but it doesnt seem that the mc is gonna get anywhere soon in this game.

Simply boring. So much repetitiveness with very little anything. 30 minutes of boring is all I can take then I just have to leave it alone. For an example of how much of repetitiveness just read the next several lines.

Get up, Help with Breakfast. Checkout daughter. Help clean dishes. Go to work. Go jog. Take bath and maybe masturbate. Maybe help clean. Maybe massage wife. Maybe fuck ugly wife's overgrown bush. (prefer to just sleep.)

Now repeat that fourty times.

Okay, tried it again and it still is boring.
Also, it is not inviting to play at all. At the very start of the game, when going to your sleeping room, there is only 1 comment from your wife "Leave now" ... wtf?? No nothing on what to do or whatever. I do like a bit of searching in games on what to do or how to progress ... but this is just ridiculous.

v.0.15
Pros: good idea, original story, realistic looking characters - one of the most realistic (and good looking) looking milf/gilf ever! (there are many other games where you can not visually see difference between mothers and daughters)
Cons: boring and tedious way of making money, sex scene without evident end (only one sex scene so far, which can not be repeated - hope is it only a bug?!), so far short storyline
Overall: very promising game with a great potential, looking forward for updates!

This Dev is one of the hardest workers i've seen on this site!
& now it's starting to show in the latest updates If you consider They've changed the format of the game also they have give this a makeover. I like the way you need to get back into your Wife & Step daughters Good graces, Yes it's got a grind system, But saying that There are far worse one's out there! the Animations are great, All in all This is getting Better with Every Update!

Review for V.0.5.
Good points:
1. The premise is not original, but is good: a guy that need to re-seduce his wife to save his marriage and, at the same time, get some kinky action with her and other people.
2. Some of the 3D models are great. THERE ARE DIFFERENT AGES AND BODY TYPES FOR THE CHARACTERS!!!! Not all the characters look like 20 y.o. skinny top-models or siliconed pornstars!!! Some of the bodies are realistic!!! There is even a female character that looks about 60 y.o. and still is really hot. Realistic GILFs in a game!!!

Bad points:
1. The game is in a really early stage of the development. There are only a few things to do.
2. The grinding. I don't understand why devs think that people like to spend hours repeating exactly the same tasks in order of getting a point of experience, seduction, kinkyness or whatever. GROUNDHOG DAY is great as a movie, but terrible to live inside. And that's how it feels playing this game.
3. Very scarce text, descriptions and dialogues, specially during sex scenes or events. When you at last manage to have sex with your wife, you just see a short animation, and that's all. That makes extremely boring those scenes. A good writing is at least 75% of the game. Maybe the problem is the dev doesn´t have a high level of english.
4. Several lame scenes to see tits just because. The ones in the swimming pool, for example. It would be way better if the erotic scenes happen for a reason.
5. Animations are not good. I prefer every day of the week a few good renders for a scene and good text than a bad animation... or even a good one. Animations need to be top quality to pay off.
6. BUGS, BUGS, BUGS EVERYWHERE!

As I have already said, the game is in a really early development stage, so all those flaws can be fixed in the next updates. I really hope that in a while I'll have a reason to revise this rating and give the game a better review.
