It has all the perfect setup but fails the transition horribly. Instead of, as implied, making the character choose it for herself early on, they went for a generic 180 which is not believable in any way.
My biggest complaint with this game is that it's mostly a kinetic novel. There are no choices until the primary NTR choice weeks into the game. Then if you choose to
So, consider this a 4.5 review, which I rounded down for the KN aspects.
I found the female's choices prior to the NTR choice to be consistent with her character's personality up to that point.
Since I'm curious where it goes if you take the NTR route, I'm committed to playing the game. It's one of the more better written NTRs I've ever played.
Good:
Excellent renders, excellently presented NTR.
Extremely well written dialogue: It really kept me engaged, because this is not your typical blackmail/rape/Female Protag is a slut type of NTR.
Fairly erotic given the limited sex presented at the beginning.
Interesting male antagonist
Bad:
I dinged it one star since, at least right now, its mostly a kinetic novel. Hopefully, there are more choices going forward. It was the story that kept me engaged.
If you play the husband, he is mindnumbingly clueless and his content is boring as hell. If you want to see his path, I recommend taking the FMC path first then replay, while fast forwarding, using an auto-clicker or similar, thru overlapping content to see what little is different.
All their games are very good.
So is this one.
The art is nice and warm, the story is coherent and realistic.
It has very good scenes. Hopefully there will be more animated scenes.
For me it's one of the best in NTR together with NTRMan.
I wish all the success to the creator and looking forward to play the new version.
I would first like to say that this game does not exist in a vacuum; this dev has already released two polished games, so they have a history of completing their works and giving them satisfying endings. If you want to know the gist of what this game is working towards, I'd recommend checking those VNs out first.
Turning the Page can be played as a "mystery NTR" VN; i.e., from the perspective of the man being cucked, where much of the action is taking place off-screen and you're left with your perverted thoughts as to what's happening, or as a VN detailing a descent into corruption from the perspective of the chaste and precious female protagonist. Seriously, she is adorable.
I'll avoid spoilers, but this game is an easy 5 stars if you're into NTR/corruption VNs. The writing is superb and easy to follow, the characters are well thought out, multi-dimensional and believable, and the story contains plenty of build up necessary for a satisfying corruption arc.
subbed on highest tier for this one. Another masterpiece in development by a great dev with lots of great history on NTR games (My Mother Kyoko, Netorare Wife Misumi).
In this game specifically, the writings, art and pace is very well done.
keep on going Azienda! Can't wait for Sophie Page to turn
Update as of 2024: incoherent discord modding leads to trashy community. That incompetency apparently gets its way to the game, instead of master slave relationship, dev listened more to one guy and decided to turn this to a vanilla lovey dovey shit. Fuck this game
Update as of 0.29.0: game is OK, i can’t review it wholly being stuck in china, still has vanilla element which I dislike a lot, the studio's past game was usually a very heartbreaking NTR game, I didn't get that feeling from this game. Perhaps the reason being felix is good enough and strong enough to stand on its own, we need despair bullying NTR where the girl leaves / get painted in the color of the bullier and does more evil and destroys the MC completely.
Great slow burn and art so far. The story choose perspectives of the male MC and Female MC which will have some overlap and different scenes. This give more variety to the story. So the Female MC corruption seams believable. The male MC has a awesome mystery NTR element to keep you on edge. Great work so far by the devs cant wait to see how the story evolves
This game looks really promising and might be another NTR masterpiece similar to A Promise Best Left Unkept .
The art is great and consistent, the story has a great build up and offers two different approaches on the NTR-story. One perspective allows for a myster NTR approach (male perspective) while the other gives us a corruption NTR approach (female perspective). This adds to the replayability.
The characters are all introduced very well and the story offers a very nice set-up for an intense and well-thought NTR suspension curve. I am honestly very excited to see what this game will offer in the future and obviously I am very happy to see another Dev rising to the olympus of legendary NTR devs, such as HangoverCat and N_Taii.
We also know that the Dev is consistent and gives regular updates the only thing that changed is that the quality of the product greatly improved. (I liked his other games, but they were no masterpieces - no offense. I love the way the dev started small and improved over time. Thats how you do it!)
So all thats left to say is - the best of luck to the Dev(s) and a huge thanks for this very nice start of a game.
High hopes for this game, so glad Azienda is back and wow the improvements are huge. Game looks amazing and the writting/setup has been on point. So looking forward to sophies curruption and how the other cast members play into the story!
