VN - Ren'Py - Welcome to Free Will [v0.4.0] [MrStrangelove]

This game has everything I enjoy the most in VNs. It has a nice balance of romance and drama, the story is well written and the dialogues are perfectly enough to understand what’s going on without the need of tons of boring thoughts from the MC as seen way too often in other VNs.

The girls are all different and each of them has unique traits, physically and mentally, but none of them is a cold bitch or a massive slut, which is refreshing.

The renders and animations are of good - to great - quality. There are enough sex scenes to please everyone, but not too much so that it doesn’t disrupt the storyline.

Ok, let’s still find a flaw to this game then: the MC. He is not a dickhead and he is not ugly, but he is not handsome either and sometimes thinks too much with his lower head. Well, he’s not perfect, like everyone of us, so you get used to his ugly haircut after a while

All in all, those 4 chapters gave me exactly what I wanted and the fact that the next and final chapter will be dedicated to the love interest you, the MC, choose for the rest of the game is the perfect way to end a great VN. I just hope the last chapter will explain a little bit what the deal is with the mystical/magical mysteries hidden in Free Will. And as a more personal note, I would love to see Sheriff Queen-Bitch, aka Peace, leaving a miserable life in jail…

Short summary:


I did not enjoy this game, in fact I stopped playing at season 3. Sure, animations are quite good, and renders are mostly good, but its the same old, badly written “every girl wants to fuck you now” without any reason. And MC is a giant scumbag, fucking friend’s girlfriend from the get-go.


Sanbox mode is also an annoying time-waster, especially when you are done looking through the house for the third time, to realize it was a hidden call on the phone you had to make to progress.


Also, most of the girls don’t look good to me. Most of them look like rejected porn models. Skin is also problematic.



Good Things

• Good posing and animation of sex scenes
• Decent variety of scenes
• Renders look good

Bad points

• Very bad writing
• Story is trash, but it doesn’t matter, since character actions make no sense anyway
• MC and his brother are horrible human beings
• Unearned sex scenes. Any girl you just met sucks you off right away.
• Most girls look like bimbos

Pros:

• Visual quality exceptional
• Story seems decent, but ruined with porn logic
• Lewd scenes are ok, not the best, but not bad either. A lot of them feel rushed

Cons:

• I don't like that it is a sandbox
• Like so many other games, all girls are too easy, they lust after MCs big cock
• Cheating. Even though it is players choice, so far there doesn't seem to be any consequences to this, MC fucks multiple girls that are close friends and they never find out about it. And also MC has no conscience about doing it. (well maybe not that surprising, the first LI in the game is cheating on her boyfriend with the MC)
• Personal preference, but too much foot fetish, that is only sometimes avoidable

I hoped that this would be more story focused games, especially considering devs words in the game intro, but so far this is mostly just porn

It's certainly not a bad AVN by any means, however the longer it goes on, the worst it feels.

First thing first: visually, it's great. The renders are great, lighting is great, all looks good. The models look a bit too similar, but that's a bit pedantic.

The novel part? Not as good. The premise is all well and good, but the longer the story goes, the more that each character just seems essentially identical to each other. The dialogue gets monotonous, with each conversation feeling familiar to the next one. Sure, each character has a list of very basic traits that identify them, but beyond that they are essentially the same person. I think the biggest hindrance is that each of them almost immediately are into the MC, which means we don't have to adapt or learn anything about them. I can't even remember anything about these characters besides their one-line description: The MILF, the rebellious girl, the lesbian, the sheriff's daughter. There's nothing there to attach to, and the attempts to flesh them out are generally just filler that is quickly discarded to have another very similar conversation.

Another issue is how the story is essentially entirely kinetic. The longer it goes, the more kinetic it feels. Sure, you are TECHNICALLY given choices, but the majority of them are either arbitrary or just what content you want to see.

The experience is extended by pretty tedious free-roam sequences. One free-roam is basically the same to another. All you do is go through a room to find the one "side quest" which is to fetch something for someone around, check your phone, and get a render. It's not bad, but paired with the boring story, it just further serves to unnecessarily lengthen the experience. Since none of your choices feel like they matter, the side content feels pointless. It may be meaningful, but it never FEELS like it is.

At 6.5Gb, you might expect better quality renders but you'd be let down. Most seem to have skin problems and such.. But otherwise the environment looks really good given the lower resoluion appearance.

1. The Mc is a slimeball who is carrying on a relationship w his buddy's girlfriend.
2. Mc is estranged from his mom and brother for the last several years partially because of the mom and part college. During the last month of college the Mc just up and leaves to go w his brother on a search for the mom.
3. The brother has been working off and on for the last 4 years and saved up enough to buy a new $200 thousand dollar car, but got a good deal at only $100 thousand.
4. They drive cross country and show up at Mom's friend's house one evening. Though they've never met, she cancels her date and asks the boys if they want to sleep with her daughters.
5. After paying $100 grand for a car you'd think bro could afford a hotel.
6. Next day or two, the Mc is kissing the toes and naked ass of the daughters mom while giving her a sensual massage.
7. The friend mom asks the Mc to swap out the motor on her car the day a couple days after meeting him though he says he's not that good with cars.

Rather than looking for the mom the mc goes to the gym, dates girls, goes to a party, cheats on a girl that he's been cheating with, etc.... Many silly things...

If not for the ignorant storyline parts, this would easily rank 3 or 4 stars. If you don't mind all those parts then you might like it.

[v0.3.7]

It's not something amazing, but I think we can say it's "good" for a 4 star rating.

There are certainly strengths and weaknesses. On the romance front, it's not great. You won't find genuine relationships here. I don't think the game takes the relationships seriously at all, though, so maybe that's fine.

Thankfully, the main plot is interesting enough. Don't get me wrong, the MC undergoes his rather serious quest with the urgency of a paraplegic on a stroll. He makes any and all excuses to bang a girl here and there. And the majority of those carefree romps happen in supposedly stressful situations. STILL. The main plot about the mysteries surrounding the town is interesting.

Other than that, the renders are pretty nice and the animations are quite excellent. The sex scenes are pretty robust and stimulating enough. The models are a hit or miss, but mostly... they look nice.

Honestly, I could give this a 3*, but the "average" quality of the games on this site is rather abysmal, and you can do a lot worse than this game when picking out a porn game.

There are alot of other games like this one. The renders are truly top notch, the lewds are well done. So, for fapping purposes its probably fine. The overarching story is not the worst out there, not great either, but seemed fine for what it is. The problem is the writing. Its just awful. Its simplistic and robotic. There are, like other have mentioned many typos and word choice issues. It really does the game a disservice. It just feels like it could have been written by a 12 year old, thats the level of the prose. A shame. A story driven game like this one is trying to be needs a story that helps drive it along. Oh yeah, the sandbox/free roam stuff doesn't do it any favors either. Really unnecessary. Adds nothing to the game.

the AVN is top notch with the renders and the story is not too bad either it is all around fun to dive into and not skip right to the good stuff and renders are top notch you couldn't get much better renders than these .

It is quite a nice VN. Aside from some typos, the horror male faces and ridiculous amount of foot fetish scenes, the game really intrigued me with the mystery revolving his family and the Free Will location in general. The renders and animations are very well made too and as for the favorite girls, personally I liked Kate at start but as the story progressed Flavia started to grow on me. Can't wait for episode 4, will definitely keep an eye on this gem.

Version 3.4 The game started off pretty strongly with an interesting mystery and a well balanced cast of characters. The balance is a game strength, not over-flooding the game with an excess of female characters. It feels more natural to have a more realistic social setting. There's a good mix of girls who look good as well, and a reasonably likeable MC. Things were going along well and then suddenly the writing took a dive off a cliff. As we go further along the dialogue has gotten worse and the story elements either aren't developing well in line with the premise of the game or aren't service to develop the MC's personal relationships with the girls. You don't get any sense of real attachment to anyone and the characters have situationally inappropriate dialogue during what should be stressful or emotionally charged episodes in the story. It's like Westworld where the robots are trying to learn how to be human and not quite succeeding.

So, in short, promising start becoming more meh as we go along, and whether it goes up or down from here is anybody's guess. This game as it stands is a time filler that's fine as something to do, but not a must-play by any means.

Welcome to Free Will [v0.3.4]

PROS
- Great renders
- Great Animations
- Great cast of girls
- Plentiful sex scenes (Flavia is best girl)

CONS
- Meh story
- Free roam (I prefer full VN)
- Some of the animations have awkward physics

All and all this is a good game, even a great game, I am not giving it 5 stars because I am a picky bastard who likes what he likes.

TLDR; Great game.

great graphics , great work , i like the story , a lot of sex scenes with a combination with some adventure , the english is great no mistakes , i highly recommend you guys to try this lovely game .
good job developer and thank you for being awesome .

This is an amazing game, regardless of the model, rendering, plot, are very good, there are a lot of stockings temptation, Rosalyn is the sexiest MILF inside, this is a good game absolutely can not miss!

Why i like this game..:

Amazing renders
Animations are Great
Plenty of sex scenes
Good soundtrack
Long game good content
Good pace
Stockings
Hot girls and milfs....
Good interactions
Good decisions

Cons:
Story can improve
Too much "foot fetish" (but u can skip )

For me is a 4.5 stars but i rated 5 just to see how good this game can be.

This is one of those games that is a perfect example of a contradiction. On one hand, you have some beautiful renders and good staging, and then you have silly "free roam" segments that really don't seem to serve any real purpose other then just being able to say they are in the game.

On top of that, the story, while it started out great, quickly devolved into something not great. I mean, the MC is in town to find his Mom, but he spends his time partying, taking girls out and generally trying to get laid. He gave himself a week and he is acting like he is on vacation or something.

There is just so much potential here, but it seems like the dev has kind of mailed in the story as the dialogue is just simple and not always relevant. Plus there are silly scenarios like needing to give a foot massage to get your shirt back... or having Candice at the party but the next scene you black out and wake up on the floor with Candice gone already. I mean, you would have taken the time to pull her aside and ask her what the fuck was going on. Maybe it's her strangely enormous hair that distracted the MC... IDK... but the story just has too many plot holes.

Despite all of that, The story is good enough that I am curious about how it's going to unfold; plus I think the dev is really talented. The renders are really good and some of the women are really well done. Katie and Lily are just top notch. I would just like to see more attention paid to the story and less time on the free roam.

You should give it a download. Just because I am not in love with it, plenty of people are so you should definitely give it a chance.

For me this awesome game.

Hot girls. Very good graphic. Very good animation - damn, not always you can see soo good animation. If you slap butt - butt normaly shaking and etc. Mostly in games animation much simple if you can call it animation.

In my walkthrough I don't develop relationships with some character and of course I missed some sex scene. But I don't have feeling that I missed something. Scene and character really good.

Interesting story. In some moment I asked my self "WTF? You blind (protagonist)?" But there not much moment like this. It's ok.

A bit late but I would still like to give a review for version 0.3. In the previous versions, I did not yet feel it was appropriate to review as there was not enough content. We are now 2 versions further so, here we go.

We do start with a girlfriend unfortunately, this is always a questionable choice. Since you start with a pretty 'deep' relationship, while the player doesn't know this relationship and person at all. I don't see this as a negative point for this game as the girlfriend is practically present in the game for a very short time and doesn't take on an important role after that, allowing a bit more time to develop some feelings for her. And well... she is drop dead gorgeous, so that also helps.

Upon continuing the game, I become very fond of this game. First of all, the graphics are very good. One of the best you can find on this site. Also, the ladies in this game are of great quality and just drop dead gorgeous, all of them. In addition, the animations (sex) also look natural and incredibly sexy.

But not only the appearance of the characters is well done, also the personalities of the characters are interesting. Flavia in particular is an interesting girl in which you can clearly see a development in her feelings for the MC which is realistic, natural and simply fantastic. I have to be honest though, it really is a porn game. The ladies are dtf fairly quickly, it´s defintely not a slowburn if thats what your looking for.

Futhermore the game´s story is interesting. There is a purpose in the game, it is not simply meeting girls, romancing them and so on. There is a 'greater good' let's say. The mystery that takes place in Free Will actually intrigues me, as I have no clue what it could be.

All in all the progression with the girls might be quite fast, but come one these girls are just drop dead gorgeous. The story and the mistery of Free Will is actually intrigueing which allows the game to be more than just a porn game. Five stars well deserved, what a masterpiece.

Amazing renders,good looking girls and the story is very good. Hope in the future updates we get more choices, hope choices matter and have impact on the story and the relations with the girls, hope there is more choices to choose (instead of 2 to have 3). congrats on the dev making a interesting game and hope the future updates continue to be amazing.

WtFW is a good VN with thriller and telenovela elements. It has a soundtrack, which is also very pleasant to listen to. The plot is mysterious and the protagonists have diverse personalities, even if their bodies are rather monotonous. You can clearly see that the developer favours distinct body proportions.

Overall, I really like WtFW, but points are deducted for the sometimes grotesque renders. Elyce's hair, for example, looks like it was rendered by a ten-year-old. Especially at the beginning of the game, some faces look incredibly old and bodies look misshapen, breasts have unnatural shapes and their bodies make some of the women look like bimbos.

But if you can look past that, Free Will has a lot to offer and manages to skilfully conceal the mystery surrounding the disappearance of MC's mother and the relationships between the protagonists, who is involved in her disappearance and who can be trusted. I'd definitely recommend it.

I personally like this game a lot. There's a fair amount of content and quality lewd scenes. The girls are all pretty, as can be seen from the screenshots. And they are all pleasant so it's not easy to pick. It seems by the listed game tags that this isn't a harem but so far, there isn't a problem in being involved with most of the girls. However you do need more than one playthrough to see absolutely all the content (if that interests you).
There are some free-roam times but it's fine, nothing you need to repeat to progress with a girl, thank goodness.
The game is also free in Steam (first 2 episodes at least, dunno about the rest).
I definitely recommend it. And I love Flavia!
