Ren'Py - The Restaurant [v0.2.2a] [Xell]

What an excellent game!
The renders, character models, personalities, environment, story tension, and more are all excellent.
There’s no need to highlight its strengths—they’ve been praised numerous times already.

However, I’d suggest giving Valeria’s husband more screen time. Doing so would allow players to fully experience the emotions tied to the Netorare genre. In other words, this game has the potential to strike a perfect balance between a compelling female protagonist narrative and the unique intensity of Netorare, making it truly exceptional
Eagerly looking forward to the next update

Wishing you the best of luck!

Pretty straight forward VN with some choices and simple point and click. The models are nice albeit with the typical large boobs and ass that seem to be a given for 90% of VNs now. What is different is you can toggle between the daughter and mother's perspective. Each have different events and choices. So, that is a unique feature.

Looks like it is going to gravitate to NTR - so if that is not your thing you are warned. There are choices, however, so you can avoid it (I am guessing). Animation isn't bad and you can toggle to slow and fast. No variety in animated positions, however, at least to date.

There is music, sounds and voice for the two MCs (which are female if you haven't guessed already.) So, while the VN epitomizes the very essence of porn logic with a typical story for the genre - the Dev did at least meet the basic standards of a VN in 2024.

It is titillating, especially if you like NTR/Cheating/corruption VNs. Overall, a nice, straight forward VN with easy-to-use UI, decent renders and animation. If the tags appeal to you, give it a shot. It certainly is a bit above average given the sound, voice and smooth animation, so four stars. I'll keep this one around and see how it progresses.

Good game, amazing CG, tbh not many game have high graphics like this one, still the game only 0.2 so we need time to rate story. Right now for me the story was ok, not exellent but for NTR tag and world with bun of douchebag , i will say is ok, hope that new update we have we have more scence. Right now , well done Dev, big respect

9 / 10
v0.2.2a
Lite-hearted family-NTR comedy.
The best kind of ntr.

Great:
- Tone.
- Humor.
- Visuals.
- Characters.

Bad:
- Pacing / flow.
- Dad / Husband / MaleMC. ...although he is rather funny. 20% of the time.

Overall:
Highly recommend it for a light-hearted story with emotional intercity of jealousy, blackmail, and ntr.

I give this three stars because the principal concept is good, graphics is good, but dialogue isn't great at all and worst of all in my view is the almost total lack of player agency. So you just get fucked by ugly dudes, in random holes and numbers, nothing you can do about it, starting in the intro. Sometimes you have a choice between one uglier dude and a less ugly dude. I suppose it will be the same with any future kink that gets introduced. Again, models and assets are good, but if I don't have any influence over what or how it happens, I don't see the point.

There's plenty of talent in the CG. Likewise for the GUI (very well done). BGM is nice and enjoyable. Voice-overs are acceptable.

But the writing!?! The story has an equivalent IQ of a bag of rocks. Just plain terrible.

v0.2.2
Not exactly my type of game (I'd prefer if some of the dudes had at least some sort of redeeming quality and I had some more choice in the women's actions/feelings) but the visuals are easily enough to keep me hooked. The scenes are fapworthy, I just had to take things a little less serious than usual. Rooting for the game because I definitely want to see more of the main characters, especially Zoey.

You just need to know going in that the men are pretty much all ugly creeps and/or douchebags. You also can't really control what happens to the women or how they feel about it as far as I can tell. They are pretty much groped/assaulted (frankly I'd say raped in some cases but it's not really played up that way) right from the start and for the rest of the game. It's definitely not a "moral woman slowly becomes corrupted" type of thing.

None of that's objectively bad but if you don't enjoy that type of thing I don't think you'll enjoy this game. For me, my personal rating would probably be more of a 3 with the visuals accounting for a lot of that but I think 4 is more fair.

Honestly, just not a very well-written game. It's interesting to me how the overview gives an impression of some sense of quality, but it's merely a word salad for the porn plot that is just so unbelievably over the top. Like within maybe 5-10 minutes you can see just how utterly absurd the plot is. Sure the visuals are good, but having to read such awful dialogue is so bad.

Good game so far. Great use of high quality 3D assets. Story / Dialogue could be better though, the recurrent issue where the girls are extremely sensitive, the corruption process is rushed and the scenes lack common sense. Free roaming is mostly boring so far, it is only useful for the smartphone images mini game. MCs are cool, side characters are not that interesting so far.

Story: 7/10
Dialogue: 5/10
3D Art: 9/10
Characters: 6/10
Gameplay: 6/10

Unique game. The story got me hooked because of the comedic aspect of the characters. There are lots of cliches and stereotypical characters and I'm saying this in a good manner because the developer knows what he is doing.

It's a fun story to play.

Sandbox adds another layer to the game. Also playing 2 characters is something I liked story-wise.

The animations are great and I know they will be improved after releases.

I'll be following this game closely and waiting for content.

the game is still quite in its infancy to comment on the progression of the story/characters but for what it's worth the free roam looks surprisingly stable and easy to use. on the other hand, these might be some of the best female renders i've seen in this website. dev also seems interactive and willing to ride this project out. looking forward to more updates

This game has the potential to become my favorite game. It's off to a very good start. The story, the flow of events, the characters are very good. I hope it will be a long and continuous game. Thank you <3
KEEP GOİNG CHEF
COOK THAT GAME

For a game that just started, this is pretty nice.

I love the attention detail and Valeria's outfit is in restaurant is pretty nice, great work and can't wait to see what else is next,

Great start and I love Valeria !!

also nice loading animation, very nice game menu, a lot of work has been put into this game!

The backstory is okay, but nothing special. It's just a corruption story that gives you whiplash. The standard: "oh I don't like these rude guys, but oh when they harass me I feel so special". They get into it so fast you'd think they are always in a hurry to get some where else.

Update Version 0.2.1 Some new content, quality renders and some fun things. Sandbox is very limited at this time and looking forward to more content. Still holding that this is a very, very good quality project and worth 4 stars (it is a 5 star in holding pattern as it is limited content for now).

Version 1.2 Seems to be rather nice for this very early stage. Excellent art, nice attention to details. The 2 FMC's are beautiful and it seems to be an interesting start. Very nice looking ladies, heels are detailed, clothing seems very well done.

4 stars at this moment for potential, quality renders and a good corruption set up for the two FMCs.

The map seems slow and a delay when moving the mouse around.
Fixed in Version 0.2.1 Dev responded and worked the fix, nice to see.

The wife's husband is already a beta and being kind of being put down already , so hopefully the Dev won't go full cuck on this project. (Edit - Dev appears to not be going down the hard cuck route from his responses Slut sim and fun seems to be the path.

Much prefer the ladies being corrupted without him knowing and not rubbing it in his face, the full cuck stuff rather ruins what could many good cheating slut maker games, as once he is aware the stress and excitement is gone and all that is left is humiliation.

Aside from my personal preference, this is a quality beginning, only an intro so far, I will update my review as this continues.

From the moment I launched "The Restaurant", I was captivated by its stunning visual appeal. The game menu itself is a work of art, showcasing the high graphical quality that extends throughout the game. It's clear that the developers have put significant effort into the game's aesthetics, particularly in the use of lighting and shadows, which contribute to an immersive and visually striking experience.

Beyond its visual brilliance, "The Restaurant" offers a compelling storyline that has already left me eager to see more. The narrative is engaging, and the way it unfolds within the beautifully crafted world adds depth to the gameplay experience.

Kudos to the game developers for their exceptional work on "The Restaurant". Their attention to detail, from graphics to storytelling, makes this game stand out as a top-tier title. I'm excited to continue my journey in this game and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a visually stunning and narratively engaging experience.

Usually I'm not a fan of female MC/ POVs but this game is an exception, the renders and the quality are too good, i think we've found a new masterpiece.
The characters are realistic and the emotions perfectly displayed in the game.

Goodluck to dev for future releases.

This has some good potential. Really enjoy the character designs and the facial expressions in the renders. I can tell tell the developer cares and is in here answering everyone's questions and ideas. Much respect. Looking forward to how it grows in the future.

This game is great!

I don't really like many 3D games, but this game is definitely in my top!

The plot of the game is original and I'm not sure if I've ever seen anything like it. The idea, characters, descriptions, dialogues, thoughts, rendering quality, scene quality, sound, everything is done at the highest level! The game has a lot of potential and I'm definitely looking forward for it!

the story is awesome, the way characters looks is definitely a master work.
i'll recommend this to all game lovers out there to try this at least once.
I myself waiting this for few months after i got to know about this masterpiece.
although my words looks like buttering but believe me these are my own thoughts about the game and the story. i love valeria a fmc in this game and can't wait to play.
