VN - Ren'Py - Waifu Academy [v0.13.0] [Irphaeus]

Waifu Academy [v.0.13.0] - No Spoilers

This was my favourite VN on the site back when it released, and I would have rated it 5/5 at the time. Nothing else was so comical, sexy, and engaging. I've been letting updates accumulate since 2020, and now that I'm all caught up, its flaws are more apparent to me, and maybe even more numerous. Fortunately, its strengths remain unchanged.

The most amazing component here is the varied cast of characters. There are so many girls to go around; each with a unique personality and storyline. You are guaranteed to like some and dislike others. I enjoy seeing how they interact with each other. Rivals clash, best friends gossip, and new relationships emerge as they gradually get dragged into the MC's problems (or cause them for him). What I don't like is that their sex scenes are often underwhelming or treated irreverently with inane dialogue. The worst is when you've been anticipating a moment with a particular character, but the scene keeps changing to something off-putting. It kills the mood.

The story is unpredictable, almost always interesting, and still as engaging as I remember it. The choices presented do a decent job of moulding the protagonist to your liking. He's very cunning and usually one step ahead of everyone with his plans, and he scores women easily. Imagine, then, how frustrating it can be when the writer suddenly makes him oblivious to the intentions of female characters, merely to build more anticipation for the eventual climax.

The writing overall is smart, funny - especially if you enjoy slapstick - and heavily influenced by pop culture. It can be heavy-handed with the references at times, and like with the large cast of characters, you won't like all of it. In fact, if you're not a fan of what you're reading in the first hour, then I don't recommend that you continue. The jokes never slow down, and worse, it seems like more typos are introduced the more that you get caught up. (It felt like I was seeing a typo every 5-10 minutes in my last few hours of reading.)

Despite my 4-star rating, you won't find many better novels on this site. For me, it hasn't lived up to its potential to be a masterpiece, but I'd still put it in my top ten. I'm eagerly waiting to see what plotlines will develop and which characters will get dragged into something next. The question is, how long will I have to wait? I'm getting old over here!

I will miss playing this game, great story, great characters, great protagonist background story, and don't get me start on the dialogues, the funny lines are so entertaining. This game truly makes you feel like you're not playing but live in the setting they made. I hope the developers will continue producing until its completed.

İts amazing game with even using outdated models from certain game we all know even that models with mods etc can be good and this AUTHOR does that well its amazing really all characters look hot and sexy you want them to scenes lot of them you know ? its gets good score from me as models.

Story is good too its rising hero plus revenge story with traumatic past etc with heavy dark themed one too not yet fully revealed but you can guess it since i am sure many of us read or played game like this and not gonna lie its can be cringe time to time and some characters out living their time you know ? they should gone year ago but some reason author keeping them to later story.

Characters good really good every one of them their own story and right now %50 revealed and other %50 left so i am curious to see their own stories and their personality good too but sadly not all of them get time on screen and looks like we need to wait for more to that.

Sex scenes amazing like i said its improved models of certain game its amazing really animated too problem is that TOOO MANY characters here so its impossible to fit them right now thats why each update only covers few and leaves other DESİRED ones thats shame.

Update is problem here right now we get hardly 2 update yearly or less and its been long time since this game start develop you know ? other than that and few annoying character plot points nothing bad here İTS 5 STAR game without a word and question but sure needs improvements with gameplay and story.

The dialogue in this game is still lively and funny. It often makes me laugh, and I think that makes this game something special compared to most other games in this genre.

This update 0.13 had a somewhat surprising (and unbelievable) scene with Rikuna, who had a prisoner in her house. But maybe it was necessary to make the story continue sensibly.

Otherwise, I also think that a plot from Japan makes this game a little extra interesting compared to the typical European and North American settings.

A lot of games with this kind of models tend to drop in quality, but this one doesn't. And of course, there's also the whole thing about having something that catches your eye — and just the images alone already grab your attention. The story is good, even if it's the usual kind you find in these games, but come on, who's really focusing that hard on the plot? The animations are top-notch, and the female characters are well-designed and not just copy-paste. If you're looking for something quick and well-made, this should definitely be one of your first picks

Review of Android version 0.6.a
Game is seriously undercooked but promissing
major issue would be uneven release versions

Does 0.6 on android and 0.12 on pc does not have differences because one was just made later? or i m losing half of the adventure???
why despite year since last update android and mac versions wasn't bring up to the same version number??

Aside from terrible development game have:
False choices - aka choices leads nowhere you have to select B
Stupid game overs - aka choice that leads to game over and main menu
Broken autosaves - in combo with the above you can get game over progress reset
lack of choices around sex, everything to do with a girl is set in stone and your only option is to have only 1 version of the events and done

Pros:
easy to play
promises of choices with consequences
Girls does not looks bad, very generic tho
main character is not idiot, but its a bit creepy with girls

Wannabe Sandbox game that is actually just a linear story. Minor variance in choices that don't actually affect the overall story (just some dialogue differences). Karma system that has been (so far) pointless.

On the other hand, I find myself actually interested in the story, the girls are sexy, and the sex scenes are decent enough.

Drop the pretension that the story isn't on rails, and get rid of options to do stuff that don't really do anything, like going to the bathroom for 1 Karma Point or going to the nurse's office to find out she isn't there. Make the Karma actually mean something or get rid of it entirely. Maybe change some "Game Over" choices to not be game over based on your Karma.

I'd really like to see this game be more than it is, instead of trying to be what it isn't.

This games is pretty much a time capsule because holy fucking tap dancing monkeys is this game great.
It has hilarious call backs to meme culture imbeded into the karma system even going as far as to reference witney dog fucker, or the heart of the cards from yugioh, to even 2 fast 4 u memes.
These jokes really sweetens the mood of the game. The writing and gorgeous 3D visuals are also amazing and it some how blends nicely with a
sometimes serious story.

You will cum atleast once, You will laugh atleast once, You will want to slap a bitch atleast once.
Absolutey Fucking cinema.
My only gripe is that theirs not more frequent updates but with writing like this the person who made this game is clearly is a perfectionalist.

Everything is on a good level, story is ok, not boring, most of the characters have decent personality, the lewd scene could be longer and my main reason for 4 star it seems most of the scenes contains basic HS2 animations

I don't rate any games that's for sure but I feel like I need to rate my Fav game in Adult Games,

This Game is a masterpiece I've been playing since 0.10.0 and man.... It does not disappoint , It's GREAT WORTH RATING (My first rating in this Website Btw)

I'm very excited about upcoming updates and how will the protagonist will Conquer the Waifu academy and the Waifus ofc.

So if you didn't try to play this game even once, You're missing something in your life Dude!.

Truly an Essential Must play game of this site
- Most of the love-interests are Well-written as well as blessed with absolute heat of Good-googly-moogly
- MC is for sure the best in site, I love me some smart and deceptive protagonist driven with revenge and great character developement
- Story is seriously slow but very catchy and suspenseful at times
- Dialogues are also the best in site for me (had me wheezing many times)
- Sex scenes are da boommmbbb, I love it as it stands unique rather the generic honeyselect sex scenes. Sex scenes with the domination are real fapworthy fruits
Game was unexpectedly long but i really enjoyed the dev's effort in it and i wish him the best for this masterpiece

honestly, one of my favorite nsfw games. all the characters have their unique personalities and attractive appearances/characteristics about them. the humor in this game is absolute s-tier, and i found myself laughing out loud many times. the main character's plotting and scheming personality combined with the game's story has really gotten me hooked. i'm really hoping Asuka's storyline will be expanded and the character can build an actual meaningful relationship with her. some of the music like "drop it" has ingrained itself in my head, and everytime I hear it somewhere, I immediately think about the game. the only downside are the long update times, but since this has nothing to do with the actual content, no stars will be taken off.

This is another fun one that's not meant to be taken too seriously. The story is entertaining, even if the attempts at humor and numerous cultural references don't always land. It's got some sexy scenes and characters, and a lot of content. Definitely worth a go!

A big, bold and ambitious game/VN. Although far from completed, the reviewed version (0.12.5) already has many, many hours of gameplay.

Anyone trying this game for a quick FAP will be disappointed. Although there are in fact plenty of amazingly hot sex scenes, the build-up takes some time. And, in some cases, at the last moment, you will be interrupted and end up not fucking the girl of your dreams – at least at that particular moment.

Which leads me to another point: the writing. The typos are few and the story and the script are solid. The dialogues are also very good and after a couple of hours you will feel totally immersed in this universe, and caring for its characters.

Regarding the art, what we have here is obviously based on Honey Select assets (probably HS2), but that serves the story perfectly, with all the Japanese culture references (starting with the title).

As I said, this is still far from completed. Not only in terms of story, but also mechanics. For instance, there is positive/negative "karma" according to the choices made but, up until now, there are no benefits/consequences for that karma. It will, but not yet.

A last mention to the care in the soundtrack (music) and sounds. This is something many devs "forget" (= don't bother) but that I feel it can make or break a game. In this case, music and sound are just about perfect and contribute for the inevitable 5* that I'm giving it.

not a bad games but too much of a absence (false choices) of choice most of the time if three choice two lead to game over that meen you don t really revenge its seem that way for the time been after all you cannot have different ending when most of the game are like a vn same with map only one place to go even with two or three location the same with you house until you click where you ae forced to go nothing advance vn games with surey not real revenge and destruction in the end

Terrible, unlikable MC who is so cunning yet somehow dumber than Alex from Solvalley School and girls that are written so one dimensional it makes you do a double take. The writing is abysmal. Comedy is mostly subjective, but this game's attempt at humor is so retardedly juvenile it makes me cringe. It's not charming, just takes me out of the game. Everyone is huffing kerosene to cope with the cardboard cutout trope characters and horrible person you are forced to play as. As for the sex shit, it's Honey Select, so it's serviceable. The same thing you've seen in so many games before. It's the only thing preventing me from giving one star. Oh and one more thing, the dev cannot decide whether they want to do a Japanese thing or like a Western thing with the themes, but they use western sizes when they don't make sense. Like calling a girl who clearly would be an H cup a "heavy D cup". There are better games worth your time than this.

UPD After second try I have to change the ratings. It's a long nice story in school setting. Like adult manhwa. While the beginning was kinda rough and some of the girls were to easy too conquer (otherwise the game would be too herbivorous in beginning ), the whole game feels solid after some time.

Deja Vu and Sexual Healing soundtrack was hilarious.

This game already got a lot of reviews and just reading some of the lower one here with netcov being the most recent, sorry to say this but i strongly disagree on your viewpoint of the MC. First thing first, this game has multiple paths that you can take that can lead to different outcomes, which is not always varied all the time because there are some part in the game where the dev doesn't commit enough with certain routes or you simply can't do anything about the situation, but still the options are there and they can be pretty messed up or straight up hilarious.

The MC is refreshing, he's definitely more on the pervy side where his actions can lead to some stupid consequences, but again those are options that you can stray further from if you want because ultimately he's still flawed individual at heart. There are so many obstacles that he has to face in this game where every character seems to be his enemy including some of the adults who have absolute power over everything, but slowly but surely he will get a lot of these characters to be on his side which does not always make them reliable / trustworthy allies, because our MC still has to tread carefully when acting around some of them.

We're talking about a story from the perspective of a new high school student with almost nothing left of his name and surrounded by people who don't really welcome of him, but he can still overcome the struggle thanks to his sharp wits and manipulative skills which are not always reliable especially since he can still make fatal mistakes, so it's like a constant ups and downs which in a way makes the story much more engaging while also giving you meaningful progress. He started out as someone who was just obsessed with revenge, but he will slowly open up to a more healthy relationship and wanting to pursue a meaningful life.

Overall it's a very fun story to follow, well thought out MC that is both reliable but not perfect, and the heroines are great even tho there are some that still lacking because they either don't have as much relevance at this point in the story or just straight up unlikable. Models and animations are nice even tho the game definitely could use some sound effects during the scenes to maximize the experience. Overall really enjoyed my time with the game and i have nothing much to complain at all, an easy 5-star which i hope could motivate the dev to keep doing their best until the final release.

Great Game! In my top 5! Gorgeous models! I really liked the sense of humor, one of the best I've seen. The story is also great! I really hope this game keeps going! The animations could be even better. Thank you for this game DEV!
