Ren'Py - Completed - Twists of My Life [v1.1.2] [Novel]

Weird story and game.

MC has just broken up with hes GF and dont want to trow him self into another relationship, then some weird girl comes to hes appartment to move in? MC just accepts this even though he knows absolutly nothing about her, he just trust whatever she says and let her stay, MC then ends out fucking her? why? i dident want anything to do with her since i liked other girls alot more then that weird bitch, huge flaw to force someone on the player.

If you go after another LI Ann which is the weird girl in the appartment then just breaks up with you, so makes absolutly no sense her being forced or ever moving in with MC its a shitty story.
This is supposed to be a none harem and game forced a girl on you that your then forced to break up with to be with someone else? it dosent get more idiotic then this, after MC fucks Ann you can pick its just say and MC will think shes still a pain in hes ass, which makes even more idiotic that he even fucked to to start with when he dosent like her or want a relationship.....

It only gets worse then Alana or whoever the bimbo is gets forced on you as well MC now fucks here to.....i lost all respect for this so called none harem game and its unplayable.

The sandbox is even more idiotic, there arent one its purely a waste of time being a mouse click simulator, all you do is click on "shower, eat, map" nothing else, it serves no point in the game at all.

I wanted to go on Helgas route but it was impossible, tried all kind of things never found the way since its impossible to know what to do since you cant just turn down people and everyone else is forced shit.

I mean whos the fuck would think if you pick a blowjob or a 69 with Alanna will block you from ever going on Helgas route? making shit like its the most idiotic pathing ive ever seen to get on girls route.....

One thing they did right was the virgin/deflower scene that showed a little blood but its not going to add many points overall.

Pregnancy is a joke, its at the very end and no pregnant sex well other then 2 still images which dont make anyone happy.

Girls look nice and good diversity in builds.

Animations are meh.

Choices are fucked up since you can pick who to end up with but it still has forced LI and in a none harem game this is the one thing you just dont do, it only works in kinetic novels nowhere else and having choices with how you have sex with a girl should never in a million years effect other girls route thats simply just so beyound stupid.

Nice graphics with the girls. Story is a bit repetitive in the mornings...I mean who want's bacon and eggs and coffee every morning. Also seems a bit weird to go to college every single day (I can't remember a full day off for MC in the first 15 days).
Story is very complex with very simple choices having dire consequences for which girls will be available.
No Harem is a real issue unless you are a one woman sort of guy who finds one girl at the start and is not interested in any others.
Not one I will be replaying for other routes as WTs are too complicated.

on the plus side, the models are cute and, well, that's it.

The translations are very poor and the MC is a cliche of a Russian guy (i.e. a moronic chauvinist and rapey personality. Actually, probably not a cliche, just reality.

The story makes no sense at all and the padding out of the VN by the stupid shower/kitchen/breakfast and other pointless clicking which adds no value is just annoying.

Best avoided unless you are actually a rapey Russian douchebag.

Finally, a completed game on this site that has a good route really enjoyed Alanna's route and wished there was more, but obviously, there needs to be an end to a story. My only complaint is the roaming and selection of places to visit, feels very outdated, but not enough to detract from the score. Hope to see more from this dev.

3.6 not great, not terrible.
played from fresh to the end to see 2 different girl's paths.
Very satisfied with Helga's ending that i got.
Had so much fun playing Alanna's route.
Ignored rest of the girls,but helped them when they needed. Didn't want mc to become an asshole.
Owerall not much can be said.
Each girl has their own perks.
So i suggest you take a peek at walkthrough availible, and decide which fetish you wanna get. Then chase the girl who has that option i guess idk.
I just wish i could create more time for some other girls but it required specifically . So i ignored their ass.
Dont expect much nor get attached to some girls, you will enjoy the game just fine.

It's probably my one of the most played games from this site. It's just too perfect in its own ways and the ending with Alyssa is blessing in disguise

Coming on commonly pointed cons, Yes one LI, in fact 2 LI, have complex gameplays to achieve their Good Endings and this does bugger off few players but I would still recommend this to everyone because a flawed beauty is the best beauty indeed

WHere to start to describe how bad i found this game?
1) no music at all. It's a very bad start but it may be overviewed if the rest is good...
2) models are in the "poor" side of the scale.
3) no sense of direction at all, just simple background with a character displayed and dialogue going on.
4) during the first 30 minutes i had one "sexy time"... it was evoked in text. No image, nothing. I wouldn't care because it's a wanking time for MC, but then where is the sexyness of the game? all the girls look approximatively the same and have the same non existent personality.
5) there is a fake impression of "gameplay"-type of VN where you choose where to go... but in fact it's just a fake front: you have no choice of gameplay type, just discussion type of choice.
6) discussion choice VN are not bad; there are many good ones... but here the choices seem poorly designed and finally irrelevant.


No story, just boring events, one after another.

Stay away and play any other game of the same type to feel better.

Definition of average/poor. Soo many repetitive images and the same scenes over and over again, completely pointless.
The dialogue was a mix between decent and bad, the images were not the best, some animations were pretty poor.
In terms of the story.. could have been better. The points system is stupid. I got a bad ending because of a single, I'd say insignificant minor choice, I mean really..
Overall, 2.5 stars, game is pretty old otherwise it would have been lower by today standards.

Realistic & simple with plenty of choices. All the girls r really gorgeous. Animations though quite few are very well done. My fav part is that from the beginning everything kind of points that Helena is your soul mate but as I kept playing I fell in love with my roommate Ana. That was something I did not expect & I enjoyed the happy ending I got with her. A sweet & short love story.

Graphics and sex scenes were pretty good. A lot of different paths to go down so pretty decent storyline. Big downside and almost got me to quit playing were the huge amounts of reused scenes and dialogue over and over and over.

I thoroughly enjoyed this one. The story is engaging and has many different branching paths that you can take. All of the women are beautiful so it is difficult to choose which one to pick for your first play-through. Great game!

I really liked it, it has a story... Well built, it's not something I haven't seen, but I really liked how it's built (at least with a certain character, since I only got the ending number 8) I like the characters... From what I saw, I only felt that there were some in which the story did not delve into, although it was probably because of my decisions, the decisions affect the story in an incredible way, perhaps I felt a little forced the fact that if you agree to be with one girl the other will automatically leave you even if you haven't told her anything about it... I felt a bit rushed, but it's not something that I really disliked. The models are very good, they do not feel uncomfortable and they are pleasant to look at or at least I like them a lot. And the story, in my opinion as I said, is not the second advent of Jesus Christ but it is very good and entertaining. The sex scenes are not wasted either since they are very well made and do not feel orthopedic, if you are looking to have a good time with a good story, then you have to try this game. I'll keep it there and maybe one day I'll decide to get the other endings... I would do it immediately, but I'm always very lazy to get all the endings out of a game. My respects to the developer, it's not easy to make a good an entertaining story this days.

Boring, no choice game with less than exciting renders. The translation isn't very good. Overall the game just feels kind of half-hearted. Its strange, but hopefully someone can get some fun out of it.

Probably deserved one star, but some of the renders and animations are pretty good.
The Good
Some renders and animations are quite good, especially for an older game. That's about it.
The Not so Good
Grammar/Translation is pretty terrible. Sometimes you will literally have to guess as to what's going on, as the dialogue makes no sense at all.
MC is super inconsistent, but overall a pretty big Douche. Default seems to be selfish asshole, or spineless loser, and even with some positive choices that seems to bleed through.
Choices are pretty random. Not enough when you want them, and too many that don't seem to matter at all.
Even with a guide the endings don't make sense, and way too many bad endings, for no apparent reason at all.
Biggest negative for me, is no audio at all. No sound effects, no music, nada. Really needs sexy sounds in the lewd scenes at least.
Second biggest negative is no gallery. There are some pretty decent scenes here, but some are very hard to get to.
On the upside, this Devs second game, I really enjoyed and definitely recommend, just not this one.

well, didnt expect this kind of game. choices you make does not matter because the story goes anyway. if the game gives you left or right, you click left then it will give you 2 extra sentences and after that the story goes right anyway.

So, a law student gets kicked out due to anger management issues.

It's a bit of a stretch to believe he gets to finish his last... well, few weeks I guess at another school, but I'll allow it.

I'll even allow getting into fights at his new school. He does meet a violent douchebag that would try the patience of a saint.

The part I don't get, is a law student with anger management issues on record *raping* a girl... No, not in a "fantasy fulfilment within an adult visual novel" kind of way where you get to choose to be as bad as you want to be in a make believe setting. I'm talking about a guy who should know better raping a woman and you as the player get no choice in the matter.

No consequences. Heck, the MC never even sweats the fact that he attacks this woman. The woman even uses the most disgusting defence of every rapist who ever saw a judge by suggesting "couldn't you tell this is just what I wanted by how I was dressed and acting?".

Don't get me wrong. I've known entitled fucks who work in the legal profession and treat the law as something made for the little people while they engage in drugs and violence as a matter of course but this "game" pretty much makes out everyone to just be a shitty person.

Maybe it's a bad translation. Maybe some of the broken english in this game is a badly translated metaphor that in the original language spells out "Hey, you know I'm a real freak and I'd love for you to pin me to the ground and rape me", after all, the MC is never even remotely worried about this. Maybe?

So, I have done some disgusting shit when playing these games, but this one pisses me off beyond belief because I simply had no say in the matter. I never got to wonder about "that forbidden choice" after a first playthrough because it was never a choice. The MC is a shithead and no other action he takes makes up for it. Even worse, there is no thought of consequences for this action at all.

OH BOY, the MC saves another woman from harrassment, he impresses another by not being as violent as her current boyfriend, he attracts a Polyanna for... reasons, and he is a rapist.

Fuck this.

I'm confused. The story supposedly takes place while the MC is in law school. Graduate college/university, then attend law school. By that time one would think there is a certain level of maturity to expect of those in the story. Instead, what we have is behavior on par with a middle-school playground. Silly, childish, petty behavior. Fist-fights over nothing. Whining, entitlement, sophomoric attitudes. The term "boy" is often used to describe the male characters (and although they do frequently act childish, at ~25 y/o one would not use the term "boy". (Maybe it's a cultural thing with the dev.) Also the same with the use of the term "girl". Just cheap writing.

And the worst of the lot is the MC. He pouts, he sulks, he's, frankly, pathetic. Chauvinistic in his attitude about women, emotionally fragile, and pedantic.

I suspect this story might appeal to teenagers who do not yet know appropriate behavior for adults of this age, otherwise, the script is much too weak to be considered a success.

I will give it a star for the quality of the renders which are excellent.

++ Renders
------------
---- Poorly written script
- rudimentary animations
- no effort to add any audio

this game / novel is exiting and i mean it the storyline is great the characters are adorable and sexy and there is just so much to do literally bang them all i love it you can choose to pursue romance or total depravity its just amazing

+ Pros

decent renders. And thats where it ends.

- Cons

Unlikable protagonist douchebag with no backbones.

Boring story (I never klicked the left mousbutton so hard an fast before)

Story trys to put me in a place, where I care about a stupid cu*t that lies from the start and is in a relationship with an even worse guy with a serious Inferiority complex and small penis. (and fails miserable at it)

Annoying klicking for actions (picture in picture) for simple tasks like showering or makeing breakfast.

Very short and uneventful days.

Summary - Maybe this would be good as a kinetic novelle, but it doesn´t work to well in this form. The same goes for not beeing able to name the protagonist.

Nice try, Ofc it is not that bad as it may sound how I describe it, other people may like it. Just not my taste. Good luck in the future with other projects.

The visuals are okay, so the visual part of this novel is okay. The writing is an entirely different story.

The writing is not only extremely wordy and convoluted, there are quite a few expressions being used that aren't really a thing, at least not in English speech. People don't talk like this. Literally every sentence that is seven words or longer could've been made shorter while preserving their meaning. It's like I'm reading a mediocre translation of Tolstoy here. The game description says each character has their own persona, but I don't see it. Every character speaks with the same convoluted flair. The main character's inner voice is no different from the gym owner's voice, everyone speaks the same way, even though presumably they have quite different educational backgrounds and should therefore speak differently. "hello there good sir, fancy a training?" What is this, the 18th century? I've had more casual conversations with my linguist professor at recess, who was the most uptight person I've ever known. Half the time I have literally no idea what the dialogues are about, I was less confused reading Lord of the Rings as a non-native speaker 10 years ago with a much lesser grasp of English. Then to add insult to injury, these characters commit basic banalities amidst all these high-flown speeches like using the word 'literally' wrong. Conversations this uptight won't even help you establish a business relationship in real life, because even after 10 years in academia it sounds nothing short of pretentious, so how am I supposed to swallow that this kind of speech is being used in a contemporary, casual setting to pick up women? Sorry, I'm not buying it.

I was so much the opposite of entertained, I couldn't make it past day 9 before I contemplated to look for a different game to entertain myself. Or read Ulysses to relax my brain after the confusion it has been put through. I feel genuinely bad for the animators and am ridden with guilt for giving this game such a low score, but the writing completely ruins their work...
