Yup it's absolute mental. Not only do they seem to have a set timetable for visiting our MC, they've managed to get said time table while not discussing MC at cheerleeding.
When it eventually all comes out, Harem or otherwise, I'll be disappointed if one of the girls (it'll probably be Nikki) doesn't ask "are there any girls in this dorm you're not sleeping with?"

Makes sense to be Nikki seen as she already kinda knows about others - though Just not how deep that rabbit hole goes

Fiona is a total cutie-pie. Emily is nice, and I like her character, but lookswise, her face is just a little off for me. Sometimes it looks fine, but most of the time, not so much (for me, obviously).

(Speaking of cutie-pies, I nearly put Alex as a 2 as well...)
Finally someone who gives love to Alex.
Also, I think Chloe is based on Chloe grace Moretz.

Alex was one who was just standard hot, but when she was standing there apologising and saying she'd talk to her dad about the cost of fixing MC's car, it was like I was properly looking at her for the first time and realising she's a lot more than just standard hot!

Wedding Roaming by LadyLana

I played the dev’s first game Stay Online, and quite enjoyed it. It did have its flaws (what game doesn’t), but I can already see some improvements early in to the development of Wedding Roaming. It’s a similar overall pattern – an engaged couple are spending some enforced time apart before their destination wedding in Jamaica, and are communicating by text and videochat in the time before the groom can get out to the location. In Jamaica with the bride-to-be are her sister and the best man, and of course, corruption and temptation might as well be side characters as well!

This one does have an edge for me over other phone games in that it is not only set in a landscape-oriented window, but it does actually use that space as well. The opening of the game features full renders, so while there was always the feeling that Stay Online couldn’t go past the time the couple were apart, here we have no such restriction. There is also the addition of the best man’s laptop, in possession of the MC, and photos taken by the best man can be viewed here once they sync to the cloud.

The other big improvement with this game is the phone interface. Stay Online had all the dialogue embedded into the renders whereas in Wedding Roaming, it’s all in the script file, making it quicker and easier for the dev ( especially if any corrections are needed at any point), a better experience for the player (IMO), and also allowing for translations.

The graphics are of a high quality, and because most of the game is ultimately text-based, it means the monthly (approximately) release schedule is consistently achievable. The girls are both attractive, although I question the choice of Merry for the FMC’s name! Their personalities seem pretty decent so far as well, and I actually like the “female sidekick” that Kate provides here, as often this character will purely be there to try corrupting the FMC into a cheating or sharing path, and teasing the MC as she does so. Here’s it’s more a case of the sister going to the MC for help, as she wants to get her own boyfriend into sharing. I can see some interesting possibilities with this dynamic going forwards, as well as some potential inclusion of the sister into the cheating path (likely in terms of lying and helping to cover for her sister, rather than any actual physical involvement).

The gameplay itself is fine, with everything running smoothly and choices and their consequences mostly making decent sense in the context they come up in. There are hints along with some key choices as well, should you choose to activate them, so you can clearly see if an option is going to send you down the cheating or sharing paths. As with the limited number of phone games I’ve played, the one thing that would always improve the gameplay in my opinion is a gallery. It seems a no-brainer that a game largely set in a phone interface would have a gallery option, but all we have here (so far, at least) is the gallery of photos taken by the best man, on the laptop screen, that is only viewable when new photos are uploaded for us to go and check out.

Overall, I see some good potential in this game. I like most of what we have so far, and I look forward to seeing how things progress both in terms of the story and also in the dev’s own development of skills.

Away From Home by vatosgames

Despite some slightly below par graphics, this one started out well enough, but it ultimately ended up with me getting bored and skipping through the last half dozen or so chapters (of currently 27) to get to the end. It felt like it had most of the ingredients it needed, but just missed out on a couple of small, but vital, bits – like chemistry and build-up.

MC and his mom (using the patch) go to live with MC’s aunt and cousins because Dad is… well, something’s going on and he’s sent them away and it’s all hush hush. If that wasn’t enough to make me suspicious, yes, it was confirmed before too long that there’s a crime-family sub-story to this one. Hooray! First off, other than being completely tired of the apparent need to put crime sub-plots into this type of game, here, it was just stupid. MC’s dad is an undercover cop, and he’s sent MC away to another city with MC’s mom for their safety. A high-up, mysterious figure in the crime family is known to operate in the same city, and MC’s dad wants MC to do some digging on him and report back. That’s MC, the twentyish-year-old non-cop, who is supposedly living elsewhere so the crime family can’t find him and get to him. Fucking devs, smh…

The rest of the story is also a bit much in places. As noted at one point by MC’s mom, most of the women he hangs around with are MILFs (determined by age, if not by parenthood), and almost all of those have husbands who are either too busy or disinterested, or are absent (in the case of MC’s father) to fuck them. I think the only exception is the redhead who desperately wants a baby but has an infertile husband with a micropenis (his words, though I don’t know why he’d tell MC that). Naturally, MC gets to fuck all of these MILFs, often within a day of meeting them, and most of them get fucked behind the backs of their husbands or their sons, in true Brazzers fashion – while talking to him on the phone, or talking to him while poking her head around the bedroom door, or over the kitchen counter while he’s in the lounge watching TV, or it’s a blowjob under the table while he’s standing next to it talking to MC unawares… It quickly became a game that’s impossible to take seriously, and even though sometimes that’s a good thing, it wasn’t here, for me.

There are a few younger LIs as well, but they have the same issues with regards to the lack of build-up to their scenes, and like the MILFs, a lot of the scenes were quite short and felt a bit impersonal. Overall, the quality of the girls, allowing for the graphics, was pretty average, and none of them had enough personality to be worth also taking into consideration.

The gameplay was a bit weird at times too, I felt, with most choices making sense and having obvious consequences, but the coding behind them sometimes looking strange. If you’re used to building a relationship with an LI and scoring “RELP” or “Love” points, that’s not really how it’s handled here. In fact, the path for one LI appears to be determined by the points scored in favour of another LI, and for the most part, it seems that these points are binary – it’s either a 1 or a 0, rather than points building up over time.

So although there’s a lot of content, and a good number of lewds within that, ultimately, I didn’t think this one had the depth of story or quality of LIs to carry it.

Anyone tried Our Home?

It's one that was on my list, and it looks decent enough, but its UI is borderline horrific. It's so rare for a game to make me ditch it before I've even played a couple of minutes, but those first couple of minutes were spent trying to set up relationships via the pre-game menu, which barely worked (and also resulted in 3 unwanted screenshots being taken...), and then the actual game itself is filled with ugly icons and menus that are just in your face. A bad user experience equals a one-way ticket to the recycle bin...

I have it on ignore, but I don't have any notes on why. So something about it annoyed me. :unsure:

I downloaded it last night, I've got one auto save from July last year, pretty much at start of game, and then no notes or anything else about it.

On the one hand, I'll wait to hear more from you. On the other hand, I've already deleted it and am not going to try it again, so I'll only be waiting to see if your greater patience (sometimes) rewards you.

Given both yours and MiltonPowers response to this game, the fact I didn't get far last time and the many games already in the "To Play" folder I wouldn't be shocked if I don't get around to it this month. Or at all..

Huh, for me it's the other way around, for me the game started pretty bad and got much better later on. After the first 4 hours or so i was so bored i actually dropped the game for 2 months. Only after episode 12 the game started to be good. The crime story was so meh but it was conveniently dropped and thats the moment when the game started do be really enjoyable, when we could just focus on netori and others more pleasurable things. This is that type of game which doesn't really need any story, story just gets in the way here. Visuals also got better later on, and while it's definitely not the best looking game out there it still looks pretty good with some really nice looking, high quality models.

Oh, by the way, almost a year i thanked you for recommending Chasing Sunsets in the post #20, and now when it got completed completely i finally started playing. It's a actually pretty good, but the pacing in the first few hours is so slow.

Yeah, fortunately the crime story did get an early finish... but then it came back again. I'm not sure if it subsequently got totally canned or if it depends on choices (whether you told Nora, Eva, and anyone else about it). I don't know what it was about the start, but I felt that it was just easing me in very nicely and I was on board with it. It definitely should have been just about the fucking though, maybe with a bit more story behind it.

I’ve played a number of these games over the last few months, and inevitably, some fall by the wayside while others have a little something that can keep me interested. This one just about has a little something at the moment, so rather than drop it after first trying it, I’ll give it an update or two to see how it goes now it’s getting into the juicy part of the story.

Now that’s actually a second chance in itself, because I did try this gave a while ago, possibly on its first release, and didn’t continue at the time. With more content to judge by, it’s obviously helped, because I can see several things early on that would likely have been the reasons for dropping it. Firstly, the writing is pretty poor – it’s in desperate need of a proofreader – and I’d go so far as to say this might be the worst for it of the games I have on my “continuing” list, meaning it’s not far off being dropped for the quality of writing alone. The second thing is that some of the sex scenes have camera movement in the animations that are enough to give you motion sickness. I think this has been toned right down though, as I didn’t notice the same problem in later scenes.

The graphics are good overall, with some nice LIs, although none of them stand out to me as being amazing. The sex scenes (excluding the camera movement as mentioned above) are okay but again not stellar, sometimes finishing before they feel ready, and moving from banging to afterglow, with no climax portrayed in between.

The choices and paths are not bad, with what looks like a universal option to avoid any LI (for him or for her) that you don’t like. One who I avoided (a yoga instructor) did come back to try again, and then on one path even when previously rejected twice, he was brought in without option to get handsy with the wife (although no further than just hands-on help in front of the husband). Some of the variables felt slightly unclear though, with MMC having Dominance, Cheating, and NTR Curiosity stats and FMC having Desire, Loyalty, and Submission stats. For the paths available, that doesn’t feel like it covers all the bases, and it can potentially lead to lines being blurred as the game progresses.

The overall story doesn’t seem too bad, though it’s quite basic. Sometimes you just need to stick to the basics though with these games, and I’m glad that there isn’t some crazy subplot that the dev decides is needed to create conflict, for example. There are a couple of minor instances that might fall into this category, but everything feels like it’s linked to the relationships being built in the game, rather than trying to take the story in a different direction, so that’s fine.

Have seen Grace's, but the only image really showing them was too close-up, so on my cards, they would have been hidden behind her name! Oh, and Chloe's too, but not very clearly and certainly no good shot that also includes her face.
