VN - Ren'Py - Waifu Academy [v0.11.0] [Irphaeus]

I've scrolled by this one several times, but finally decided to try it. It was worth the time to download and play, but only barely.

Story: 3/5 - There are already lots of "revenge" games with similar themes, although, the school being somehow the product of the MC's father is a novel, even though it's never explained properly.

Writing: 4/5 - The writing is generally really good. The opening scene on the train is way-over-the-top dramatic. There are a lot of dumb references that won't age well. Seems like the writer is really good, but also very inexperienced.

Renders: 3/5 - Kinda average Honey Select models. Girls are pretty but lack detail and realism. Players that are really into HS models will probably like them more, but I think it looks like it's right out of 2015.

Animations: 5/5 - Some really cool animations.

Gameplay: 2/5 - I don't know what happened here. It really looks like the game was originally designed to be a grindy sandbox but was later changed to be a regular visual novel. There is a map, but it's not useful. There are tons of choice screens that only have 1 choice available. The game starts off describing the karma system that will be used in the future, but it's not clear when karma actually kicks in to change the story. It's also weird that the whole point of the game is that the MC is plotting revenge through blackmail and corruption, yet he can somehow strive to have good karma. It just seems like adolescent logic that you can play as an inherently-evil gentleman or an inherently-evil douchebag.

Content: 2/5 - There should be a lot more quality lewd content in a game that's been in development for this long.

"How Dare You Accuse My Dead Father of Rape, Now I'm Gonna Rape You All Grrr" The Game.

Mid writing with boomer-tier memes and outdated pop culture references? Check.
Garbage revenge plot with a worse-than-garbage MC? Check.
Author taking a long ass time to develop the game and high up his own farts? Check.
Sudden hamfisted game system aka "karma"? Check.

This is one of the games you thought would've been great but keeps getting worse the longer time goes. It's not completely terrible, but compared to other HS games this one definitely pales in comparison.

Great visuals and design, good characters and intriguing story. I like that each character is fleshed out with their own personality and they all have something to do with the story so far. Also, great sex scenes

Renders are great, love the style, it was almost enough to keep me playing. It has a karma system, where you are made to drug someone, so you can sexually assault them with no option to avoid doing, so this game only lets you be an evil prick or an extremely evil prick. If that's what you want in a game, more power to you. I just wish I could have played a somewhat decent guy.

WA is probably in one of its bests spots for new players to jump in now more than ever, and is overall a pretty great porn VN. Game has some of the best HS graphics game that I have currently played, and I find the game's girls really appealing. The sex scenes are very good. The dialogue and story doesn't take it self too seriously which I find very charming and works in the games favor. I skim 90-95% of the pron games I play either because of shitty ass mtl translations or just fucking unbearable corny ass dialogue, but I read all of the game when playing this. I have laughed out loud reading this multiple times, and I personally like the witty dialogue and choices that the game has. For real if you normally don't read give this one a shot.

I did rate this game four stars though, and that mostly comes from the fact that I have been playing this game since it was first posted and I'm unhappy with how the game has progressed over 5 years of the games development. The worst part about this game is that its so good to play and then have to sit and wait a year for an update. To the dev's credit however- I will say that scenes have gotten a lot better and UI and menu improvements have been made. With that in mind though I don't really think that improvements in the quality of the scenes or menu adjustments and such really equate to the amount of time we get between updates and how spontaneous they are. That coupled with multiple instances where dev have promised to deliver a said update within a certain amount of time only to go MIA for 9 months and then do a shorter than normal ass content drop, really frustrates me as someone that enjoys the game. Especially since I was playing when the dev was able to do CONSISTENT CONTENT DROPS.

For me this game is still one of the goats for all the good things listed above. The only reason that me and everyone else get so frustrated over this game and the dev is because the game is good and people want to play and finish the story, but as the years go on its seems like we don't ever get any closer.....

p.s. why no real mc sex scene with Kayane yet???? been waiting half a fucking decade
lol

Wow, this was unexpected.
I thought this was going to be yet another school game, more of the same... it ended up being one of my favorite games ever.

The characters and humor are incredible. There are some choices to be taken that actually matter (even though the evil route ain't fully developed yet, so beware). The lewd is excellent and the story is surprisingly engaging. I got absolutely hooked and I highly recommend it.

I hope to see a finished product with full evil route. Amazing thing

Very good game, the story is not incredible but the story between the characters and the sex scenes where you are almost caught during the act are among the most exciting that I have seen, only problem the updates are very long to come out is not necessarily a big update, but I hope to see this game continue for a long time

Well. This was weird.

Story is alright, but has enough twists and turns to keep you engaged. Pacing is a bit off - there's regular random "B-side" stories that can take you out of the flow.

Models are nice, and porn is plentiful. Kinda. The issue is, once again, pacing. For the first half of the game porn is scarce and constantly interrupted by jokes and story. It did change closer to the end - as more characters get corrupted, density of porn increases.

And then it cuts off on a cliffhanger. Interrupting porn scene.

I liked it and looking forward for more. It's just that i'm a bit shellshocked by the abruptness of the current ending.

This game is kind of like the Saturday morning shows you watched as a kid. You treasure those memories but going back to them you realise they haven’t aged well.
As a story this game serves as little more than a conveyor belt for the sex, and stale 2018 memes at every corner.
The sex scenes are perfectly fapable provided you turn your brain off and keep some good saves because heaven forbid you try and rely on the UI and gallery in this game.
For the love of god I hope we one day get a payoff to some of these characters that have been edged for half a decade.
Good for horny, bad for story.

Plot: I found it interesting, of medium-high duration, at least it is present compared to other visual novels with a series of non sense content thrown there. (4/5)
Characters: Many, with different personalities and designs, all characterized a minimum. And they are all connected to the main plot most of the time. (5/5)
Animations: There are enough, they are quite fluid, but not top tier.(4/5)
Music: There are some references to popular culture, more or less.
(3.5/5)
Gameplay: Not rated as a visual novel, there is a karma-based system but it’s just a plus.
Other: I found some situations funny. The only flaw could be the graphic style of the first honey select, which I like, but someone might find outdated.
Final Rating: 4.3/5 (Using a weighted average)

I love this game! More frequent updates would be greatly appreciated, but besides that, I have no complains! There are many great h-scenes and the characters are also very diverse and appealing. But the greatest thing is the story... Haven't seen anything like it in other h-games.

To be honest, I'm furious while playing this game, and my frustration grows, despite others warning me. However, I know how tempting curiosity can be.

First things first, the game starts off great with a promising revenge plot and the goal of building a harem. The character models are well-made, and there are even some fetishes included that I enjoy, like incest. The romance aspect is decent, but I hoped it would improve as I progressed through the story. So my initial impression was a solid 4 out of 5.

However, the more I played, the more questionable it became. The story went from being interesting with great potential to mediocre, and at times even laughable. But as long as the "revenge" aspect of claiming the waifus improved, I thought it would be alright. Unfortunately, more and more pointless sex scenes were thrown in, which initially I enjoyed, but they quickly became dull.

The biggest disappointment was the unavoidable scenes where the girls engage in sexual activities with random guys. Thankfully, not all of them were like this, but the ones that were happened to be the hottest and had the most potential, yet they had the fewest sex scenes and lacked romance. This made me deduct a point from my rating, and it happened during the mid-game.

What truly infuriated me were the latest moments of the game. Not only did the character model of my favorite girl become unattractive, but her entire personality suddenly transformed into a bimbo without any buildup. On top of that, the plot seemed to be completely overthrown without any logical explanation. As I read comments, it became apparent that this was all planned so that the "sub" plots could be implemented and make sense in the game. This is why I ultimately gave the game a rating of 2 out of 5.

These subplots mainly cater to netorare/sharing fetishes and seem to dominate the focus in the latest updates. Unfortunately, they are incredibly dumb, I must say. While the heavy netorare can be avoided, the lighter netorare where some of the girls engage in minor sexual activities or get groped by other guys is unavoidable. Moreover, there are even more pointless cuckold scenes involving the main character's past or other males with potential love interests, all under the excuse that they are not in a committed relationship.

Honestly, the game started off great, despite the initial cuckold scene, but it ended up being really terrible by the conclusion. The only redeeming aspects are the models and animations in the game. Fortunately, you have the option to watch these scenes without having to endure the torture of playing it and trying to make sense of what's happening.

This game is fun.


When I was thinking about the review I would write for this game, that’s the first thing that popped into my head. The story is fun, the girls are fun, the sound effects are fun, the music during pivotal scenes are fun (and often times hilarious. You may find yourself rolling on the floor when the “IT’S JOHN CENA!” clip plays), and the adult content is both fun and sexy. There’s a decent amount of rape scenes, but they’re the kind of half-hearted rapes you find in most hentai where the girl objects until the wonder that is the MC’s massive member woos her into submission. More than one character is raped at the start and then begging for more in subsequent scenes. Hardly politically correct, but who cares? It’s porn!


The story revolves around a revenge narrative wherein the MC wants justice for wrongs done to him and his father and is willing to rape and/or romance his way through women to get it, including some incest. The MC is cold and calculating in his pursuit and the cat and mouse games are fun to read through as the story gets more and more complex.


The adult content is top tier with many of the “I hope he gets to have a threesome with those two!” or “I hope he punishes that sneering evil girl with his cock” wishes coming true. The designs are varied enough that you’ll never struggle to tell two love interests apart, and you won’t find any girls with tires strapped to their chests. While there are buxom characters, they’re not unrealistic to the point where you’d object, and most of the characters have normal backsides with B through D cups in the front. The adult scenes are plentiful, multi-staged, well-written, and well-animated. Some of the girls are near instant sluts while others have a more gradual progression resulting in a good balance of adult content throughout. You won’t have to wait hours to get to a sex scene, but you won’t see all of the sex scenes right off the bat either. You won’t be keeping your pants on for long, and you’ll likely find yourself visiting the gallery from time to time to revisit the spicier scenes.


There have been some gripes by others about the time between updates, but as a non-paying customer I’m not going to complain. One-man projects take time, and the author of Waifu Academy puts the time in so that you’re rarely disappointed by the new content once it comes out.


The only criticism I can think of is that the over-the-top pervert otaku character that helps out the MC from time to time is a little too over-the-top. As Yahtzee once said in a game review, “Deliberately annoying is still annoying!” I hope the character is toned down a bit in future updates.


I keep about 80 or so games on standby on my hard drive but I can count on one hand the games that get me excited when they’re updated. Waifu Academy is one of them. As of version 0.9.9, definitely five stars. Works exceedingly well both as a story and as pants-off adult material.

I think it has already been over a year since I found WA.
It was my first ero game which characters made by unity (?)
it is my first and favorite ero game out there.
Even tho im a huge fan of beezle bub games (train 300% capacity has my greatest kinks)
But story-gameplay-humor-art-girls-scenewise WA is the greatest one yet..
Did i already mention its my favourite ero game?

So anyways.. its great, play it.. you need it!

Also some new members joined the dev team so update progress should be much faster now.

Cheers! :keikoass: :inoridesu:

This is going straight to my top 3 games.

Story is well built, MC is fcking great smartass, Characters are truly lovely, Graphics are solid although some animations could have some more polishing. Even tho I hate starting unfinished games this one is going to be a gem. It's definitely worth a try.

STORY - 8.5/10
CHARACTERS - 9.5/10
GRAPHICS/ANIMATIONS - 8/10

Overall in my humble opinion it is a gem that's worth a try and player's support. Im dying for the next update, since devs really put a heart in it.

I recently played through this a second time, after v.9.9 came out, and thought it time to drop a brief review.

Despite some minor spelling and grammar issues, the text is remarkably witty, and a joy to read. The machiavellian MC is a refreshing change from the typical white-knight sort. The LIs are hot, diverse, and insanely numerous. The story is interesting, and there is a lot of it: but it suffers from too large a scope. Settling all the extant plot elements in a satisfying fashion would require an enormous amount of additional material, and it has taken years to get this far: so you won’t want to hold your breath.

If you don’t mind the idea of reading the first book of a really good trilogy: knowing that you are unlikely to ever see the remaining volumes; then I recommend this.

Hi first of all your game is great and how many updates are remaining hopefully a lot more because I can't get enough of it and what about impregnation option and solo endings for most characters like tomoe the mother of mc, the principal, the neighbour and her daughter hope to see it all and one more thing I haven't played a well written well story telling game better than this keep going on buddy hope to see your game grow keep it up on what you are doing

I am only rating the game, not the developer. The game is really great as it is and you can thoroughly enjoy it. Already there are several hours of game play and several really hot scenes I greatly recommend it. Although don’t hold your breath for updates.

Wow! I've been enjoying these games for a year now and I wish I had played it sooner. There's great quality renders in this game, lots of beautiful women. It is quite funny at times and it's over all just a fun game to play!

I like the animations although some of them are kinda awkward at times and not quite the quality I'd expect considering the rest of the game. The game-overs are kinda annoying which makes the walkthrough necessary for me, at least.

There's a few spelling errors but nothing too detracting from the overall experience. This can't be taken for granted, unfortunately. It is very nice and good writing.

I hope mc can progress with Tomeo more I was very teased by the neighbor when she joked about being pregnant. I'd love to see some knocking up happen to the harem.

One of my favorites visual novels: a bit complicated, but good story with often funny points, but mainly nice girls, that's what is going on here. Most of them are truly the goddess. I can't wait to see what happens next. Thanks a lot @Irphaeus
