HTML - What Is Real? [v0.62] [Walbobo]

I enjoyed it. The interactions felt ''real'' and the clips used were chosen well. Some bugs or glitches such as being able to easily get 100 dollars at the bar by spamming the facial contest multiple times pr day. But quite a lot of interesting sex unlocks , eg if you've watched porn at night and masturbate, suddenly your bro will join you later if you corrupt him enough. So it's interesting to re-visit places.

SPOILER BELOW

I find it cool that mom can leave, and dad can be arrested and there are late game unlocks in court for this. I wish there were more risks such as a risk you'd get caught doing sex would give some punishment, but also interesting rewards/unlocks.

I'd love to see the few bugs ironed out especially how easy it was getting money in the bar, perhaps only 1 pr day so that other jobs like in restaurant, photoshoot or cleaning would be viable. More clothing examples, more corruption levels (think 3 or 4 now?) and it was quite easy reaching last corrupt level.

This would have been a 4+ if it wasn't for the dreadful grind!
There seem to be some kind of standard of most real porn games that the player have to spend hours on end grinding stats. The power up for the needed ability doesn't even increase for all obvious sex interactions!
The underlying scripting doesn't make sense either since there are some scenes which shouldn't be possible to see. The game also suffers from the core problem with all real porn games, the persons involved differ from scene to scene, this game does this far better than others but sometime they are just thrown in for the fuck of it.

Where the scripts can be fixed the fundamental issue with grinding would still exist.

Part from this I enjoyed the game, it had some nice pregnancy images too but I wouldn't pay money to unlock the majority of scenes hidden behind the paywall.

v052

This review is for v0.50

Grindy, broken English all over the place, buggy as hell, and you can apparently hard lock yourself out of being able to progress the story (which in itself is grindy AF to get through).

The story is very vague at best, with your character getting some sort of ability to do vague things after having enough sex, but don't have specific kinds of sex with specific characters, otherwise you'll have to either wait for time to pass by because you got pregnant, or you'll have to start completely over because the person who got you pregnant was key to the story and is now in jail for incest and you have no way to get them out of jail, effectively hard locking the story and wasting your time.

If this were a finished product, I would give it a flat 1/5 purely because we can't give 0/5, but since it's only half complete, there is the chance that it redeems itself by reducing the grind, removing the ridiculous ability to hard lock yourself in the story, fixing the writing, and just making the gameplay more enjoyable overall since as is it is just a gallery unlocker with extra steps.
Do X task enough times to unlock Y event so that Z event can happen.

As is, just check out the image folder or very specifically don't have sex with any named characters unless they are female because getting pregnant brings the game to a halt for a minimum of 14 days and if it happened to be a key family member who got you pregnant, well, now you have to reload an earlier save or start over entirely because they are going to jail and you can't get them out.

If the game gets fixed, I might change this review, but as is, it's a broken, grindy, exhausting experience.

v.047 There is no character development, no rhyme nor reason for the "corruption", and the English is straight up broken (eg; "Your dad feeled shocked").

Time is used (events are scripted at different parts of the day), but fully broken. For example, studying once during the early morning advances time, but you can study a dozen times at night without time advancing.

Navigation is a pain in the ass, and there doesn't seem to be any random events; just a matter of repeating events, increasing stats, and unlocking new scenes.

It lacks many basic functionalities such as keyboard shortcuts or selling clothes that you don't want anymore. There's obviously no map.

So why 4 stars? Because it has considerably more content and less grind than other games of its kind, and by the looks of it, the dev cares, which is out of the norm when it comes to adult games. The choice of porn is also enjoyable.

My advice would be to spend some time polishing the existing content and learning a bit more about Twine to improve both the presentation and the functionality.

While the game is currently not finished, what is there is quite fun and the latest addition of things like a pregnancy system as barebones as it currently is (the whole system was only introduced with the current patch and you can only become pregnant from one character) is already one of the best implementation of pregnancy i have seen in any game! The dev seems to be very eager to really make an amazing, fun and sexy game to be enjoyed by us players, and is not simply sitting on his patreons and milking them dry while slowly bringing some tiny patch every 6 month, like so many other games that started very good, so i have currently a high hope that the development will proceed in a nice tempo.

The only bad thing is the current story-system. Not the story itself mind you, but the tasks to continue it. At some point you get an ability that is slowly recharging by having sex. And to continue the story you need the ability charged, thus you have to engage in a lot of sexual situations. What isnt a bad idea since its a sex-game after all, so it makes sense that the lewd events are not seperated from the maingame but an integral part of it. But the thing is that to continue the story in any meaningful way you have to charge this ability over and over and over again, making the fun sexual situations from the start extremly grindy and after some time i just spammend the same fast sex-events over and over just to fill the stupid bar that i could read 2 more lines of why i need to charge the bar again... Thanksfully after some time the story events become way better, in the sense that you will unlock quite some content with a single charge, but at the start of the game this charge mechanic is grind-madness and i hope that i will get severly reworked in one of the coming patches, because i fear that it could scare away a lot of players from very good content, who dont want to endure the grind that is currently nessersary to advance some parts of the story.

'm totally vibin' with this game, the situations are off the charts! Whether you're into guys or gals, it's all fire. This game's only at 0.35, but it's packin' more content than some finished games out there.

The writing is in broken English, and seems entirely unedited. That can be fine if it's in the service of weird or interesting ideas and the creator is just moving too fast to polish the work, but that isn't the case here. Likewise the creator is taking very well-trodden, vanilla ideas a lot of HTML 'corrupt a girl' simulators have done which is fine if it's done with polish or artistry, and that isn't the case either.

The game has good pictures and a good selection of visual elements, and a lot of its scenarios are hot. That's kind of it, though.

The mechanical elements are either entirely superfluous (I haven't found a use for most of the things you need to grind) or way too tedious (filling the sex meter for every objective is ridiculous) or broken (a lot of sexual encounters won't fill your sex meter because it's entirely been forgotten in the code. A quickie at school will increase it, but not one at the park or on the bus. Etc.)

Then there's the narrative. You literally need to use superpowers to be able to do things like solve a rot12 cipher and multiply three numbers together, I have no idea what it says about the protagonist they needed science fiction assistance to bring them up to a primary schoolers ability. Nothing good.

The dialogue would be better written by ChatGPT given the same prompts. The result would suffer no loss of originality and gain a lot in readability.

This review is made at the time of version 0.32.

excellent game, great videos. very good html game. i would recommend it. its very enjoyable to play a lot of content. only criticism i have is that you are not given hints on what to do next after awhile as walkthrough is generic so it does become a bit repetitive as you try to figure out what to do... hints and or progress (if any) would be helpful. Either way, great game dev. v/r Diego

Review is for V0.15a
Overall a decent start. My main complaint is that there are some formatting issues where links are way down on the page and you have to scroll down to get to them, for no apparent reason.
Other than that, the only other "issue" would be a lack of content. For now, it's got a good amount for an early version, but you'll get to the content pretty quick and then it's just doing the same events and getting the same scenes over and over again. The amount of scenes is very good though. The two characters that have scenes have quite a few scenes to go out and find, which is a huge plus in these types of games.
Overall, a really solid start. Fixing the couple of formatting issues, and keeping this level of content up will get this in really good shape.
Update for 0.32 - Still really good, there is just a small balance issue with cash. Every time slot is so filled up with scenes that doing anything that requires making money feels far less fulfilling. I end up making all my money at the bar sucking cock, and never working at the restaurant since the later takes up a time slot

The game was very enjoyable. Videos are great. Scenarios are fun. The story is promising. I can't wait to see what more will be added in the future. The only problem I could have with this game is the short length, but it seems like content is being added very fast, so I'm sure it will not be a problem for long. This game is definitely worth playing.

This Game is unique. Good choices of videos and hooking intro. Certainly, I will follow up with this game and can't wait to see what will Emma face in her future. I would like to see more content in the city though.
Overall, the game is promising and a good start for V0.15. keep up!

Interesting concept but this is litterally a prototype in its earliest stages, its basically unedited in terms of visuals from standard sugar cube and there are plenty of broken links that lead you to dead ends. If something it not implemented, don't include it, or at least give people the idea that you have thought about that location before uploading.

Lack of tutorial/direction to start the game and no way to tell how much progress is made with characteers/ how much content they have left.
