Ren'Py - Wifey's Dilemma Revisited [v0.58] [3Diddly Games]

Excellent VN with variety/options.
I think the only thing missing that better games have is animations, but not that big of deal.

The story and paths are well crafted, you can follow the story you want.
I recommend playing them all, unless you absolutely abhor NTR, then maybe skip this one...lol Because even though there's a "faithful" route, you'll need to play the other routes to unlock all of the gallery/scenes.

Honestly, pretty damn good. To get this out of the way immediately, I hate NTR and cuck shit so I turned it all off, so this review doesn't touch on any of that stuff. That being said, it does remove a lot of content from the game, which also transitions me into my main critique. Time seems to jump around all over the place which makes me think that since these scenes are turned off that's what causes it. You can go from talking to Mei one week and then the next week it's suddenly halloween. This somehow happening even though two weeks ago it was valentines day? What's going on? The time skips are enormous. Also, some events seemingly come out of no wheres. At first you're just building up a relationship with your wife and then BAM, suddenly you get invited to a super secret sex cult? What happened?

Aside from the time jumps, the content is really quite good and the ability to "build" your wife the way you want with "traits" and allowing certain activities is really cool and unique. I don't think i've seen another game do that. You do need stats to be able to do some of this stuff, and that can be another problem because if you pick the office route, there doesn't seem to be a way to level up your physique skill, and some choices require that. If you pick the office route though it does give you +10 to all stats so I haven't really run into a roadblock yet. Also, some content does seem to be locked to the other "path" that you choose for your wife (not the cuck stuff). The writing is also ok, though it way over uses phrases like haha or hehe. You also don't get much choice in how the story unfolds, you just kinda influence what happens during the story unfolding. The game can barely be considered a sandbox, considering you only really make a few choices in that regard.

Graphically, the game does look a bit dated by about 4-5 years. The girls and the game still looks good, just a bit dated. I'm not sure what else to say, the games good, you have a lot of choice in how you build your relationships, and the game looks a bit dated but still good. The biggest flaws are the massive time skips, and how some content is locked depending on the route you take, but it doesn't really clarify what will be locked. I think maybe some clarity in how your choices will affect other stuff might be good. Other than that, I recommend you try it, it's good.

I didn't do any research on this game before starting, all I knew was that there was some NTR, and I can already say that I'm quite surprised at how flexible this is in the game.

The player can really shape the girl the way he wants, she can really be his body and soul, they'll hit on her, after all, it's an NTR game, but she won't give in, or the player can encourage the NTR and she can really be a whore, even dating another guy officially while she's still married to the MC, getting with the friend of her supposed "boyfriend" (not the MC), and with another girl, but for that the player needs to influence with the right choices, so that the "wife" gains personality traits, so here's my advice for anyone who's thinking about trying this game, be careful not to accept more than you can handle, because almost everything happens here, like some of her personality traits involve her being attracted to murderous and violent gang guys, she'll only climax with people who kill, or have drugged traits, or lesbians, or exhibitionists, and so on, if you want her all to yourself, I suggest you don't be nice to anyone , and go the antagonist route and always maintain points with the wife for obvious reasons, after all, she can also lie.

but it's all very predictable, nothing happens without the player actually choosing it, and speaking of predictable, out of 10 I would give the story a score of 2... typical of gangs and mafia and strip clubs... anyone who has played GTA knows, but in a generic and shallow way.

I don't think there is much content for the number of times the game is updated either, I think the updates are small since they are in a short time, and I managed to complete the content in just one playthrough in a short time. and trying out several routes to see if it really changed anything and as I said above, it really does change.

The wife is very beautiful, the rest of the characters in the game are not, the wife's facial expression and the render and her details are perfect, the other characters' are not, even the other girls'
There is a scene of the wife in the club being caught by another guy where the render of the image leaves the wife's face very blurred.. I don't know if it is intentional or not..
And there are also no animations in the game, no animated images, what really gets you excited is the situation of the scene.

I would say it's a good game that I will follow, but not for those looking for a deep story or a complex relationship with a character.

note: it's one of the few games in which pregnancy was implemented right at the beginning, I don't know how the developer is going to do with this, I'm in the "your wife might be pregnant" state, even more so with a story involving "gangs and mafia", but I like the pregnancy theme.

Oh at first I thought this game is completed but well it isn't. Good work developer(s) keep on the good work.

Overall it is enjoyable gameplay but little bit confuse at first, after few runs I got the basic.

A good game, good plot and development, variety for all tastes, beautiful heroine, if there were more animation scenes or short clips it would be great, a game I can play again many times but still excited.

Good writing .
Very good renders.
Fun for every NTR enjoyers.
Would enjoy more if gallery unlock or cheat was possible.
A little bit too much of VN and too less of actual gameplay.
Overall quite good product.
Cant wait for future updates.

Wifey's Dilema is an AVN that involves a couple that explores their relationship with themselves or with others (sharing and NTR).

To start there is a plethora of great NTR and sharing content through different routes. You have two routes (bartender and corporate) with two alternative routes (PCD (increase in all traits) and hacking (snooping on your wife with cameras)) within those routes that compromise a great variety of content. I do like the rival and relationship that keeps track of what the wife likes and can do between the husband and rivals. It adds increasing spice and interest in each adding engagement. The renders are average to good, nothing too spectacular. The variety of traits that you can select for the wife is nice and promotes multiple playthroughs to get all the scenes.

Some of the things I didn't like is the general dialogue, it does feel clunky and lifeless at times. It can feel quite robotic and feels like it's just scenes. The AVN fails to build the relationship between the couple through its weirdly pacing. There's no build-up or suspense when it comes to the NTR that fails to land those intimate and lustful impacts. The overall system of how the game operates through weeks, social media, girls and influencers also bore down the game into a more managemental AVN (which it definitely does not feel like a good management AVN) that could of easily just been turned into a kinetic AVN.

I felt like this game had so much potential, it's not a bad game. For me, it was quite an average NTR game. I still think this game is still definitely a shout for NTR lovers, but I wouldn't put lots of hours into finding all the scenes as it really isn't worth it. If you like a blend of netorase,sharing and NTR routes all in one game, this game might tickle your fancy for a couple of short playthroughs.

This is a pretty decent game. Most of the scenes involve NTR or sharing so that's kind of inevitable. Scenes are good though, although, outside of that it feels kind of bland. There's no real story and/or decisions to make. This game is fairly linear and you basically choose what you want your wife to do. Really just felt like I was watching sex scenes back to back without any substance. Not a terrible thing (some games on this site have the opposite problem) but I think that makes it ineligible to receive 5 stars in my eyes. Also nice that the main LI isn't white, although, unfortunately this game does play into racial stereotypes to an extent.

Absolutely loved this game!!!
the renders are beautiful the story is great and there is quite a bit of content
the routes are a little confusing but i didn't even mind having to play through it 10+ times its just that good!

Sorry for my bad English
First of all, this is a great game, I like the way wifey is corrupt and the gradual change in her perception, personality and appearance.
Great game about corruption but I hope more about the evil of jamal and mr.david and how mc proves his love to wifey
about jamal: for example, jamal will find ways to increase his status in the gang by using wifey, like selling drugs, luring more people (and wifey will become even more evil in the process), or Jamal will sell wifey, force her to serve others to find a way to promote Jamal, wifey will become more evil and abandon Jamal to go to many other people (uglier and more evil :v), maybe wifey will become whore let jamal achieve more in the gang, and mc will find a way to rescue wifey or watch her fall into more evil about mr.david: maybe david uses wifey to destroy his opponents in business, uses her to gain many business opportunities, and wifey becomes the bitch of high-ranking officials, maybe giving mr.david business Do you do a lot of dark side business like arms trading, human trafficking or terrorism? and wifey will find a way to survive in danger and mc will find a way to rescue her as well as destroy mr.david.
That's my opinion on the plot a little bit because I want a little more evil and danger for wifey and how she reacts.
and about wifey, I'm a little interested if she becomes a celebrity and makes money by being a porn star or selling onlyfans, maybe get more tattoos and piercings if she follows jamal, wifey get breast expansion to serve jamal/ mr.david's purposes And finally, I don't have much criticism about the game because this is always one of the top 3 renpy games that I love. But if we only focus on wifey's corruption, the game won't last long, so I hope there are more plots in the game.
and once again I'm sorry for the bad English, I used google translate so maybe everything is not as I intended but I hope the future will be more dark and evil for wifey and mc rescue her or lose her

General Points

Pros- Good artwork, I like Mei through most of the game and I like Lee. It's very hard to find games with good looking female protagonists who don't have body proportions so exaggerated that it's absurd, so 100% appreciated.

Good Plot, I like the story, the way it's set up and the pace that it flows at.

Good systems. I love the trait system and the new social media system also adds to the game IMO. This game is obviously more about the sexual content than the gameplay, but good gameplay is always appreciated.

Cons- Unrealistic dialogue. It isn't as bad as most adult games, but clearly the dialogue could use some work.

In at least one route Mei's body proportions change dramatically without explanation to the point that she looks like some incredibly poorly drawn hentai. Quite frankly this ruined the rest of the route for me and I've completely lost interest.

Davis Route

Pure Love Path- Feels a bit off, but I'm not into sub/dom stuff, so this entire route isn't really my thing, so I'm not really sure what exactly feels off.

Soft NTR Path- This isn't bad at all, but it hasn't really gone anywhere that interesting to me yet. I'm looking forward to some 3p action with Mei and Lee at some point hopefully, but Mr. Davis is super unlikeable on every path, so I have a hard time being 100% into this path.

Hard NTR Path- Hard NTR is not my thing, but I like having the risk of it hanging over my head for some reason. I do a skip-enabled run of hard NTR paths to unlock the gallery and look for interesting content, so I don't have much to say as I don't really get a good idea of what's happening at that speed.

Jamal Route

Pure Love Path- This is sweet. There isn't enough content in my opinion, but by the time the game is finished it might feel like there is enough, hard to say.

Soft NTR Path- This is my jam. I play for this route, it's good as fuck, or was until Mei's character model changed so dramatically.

Hard NTR Path- As above I do skip playthroughs of the hard NTR paths and mostly appreciate them for the feeling that my actions have consequences, just like the threat of dying in some games. Most games in my opinion have too little consequences for death as well, so to me the hard NTR route hanging over my head feels equivalent to a game where you have to deal with long corpse-runs and experience loss (E.G. Everquest)

Love the game play so far! The paths are good! My personal fave is the club path. Looking forward to seeing more scenes in the insta app and also more changes in her looks as she gets corrupted. I love the sneak ability, but would love a better explanation on what skills will be leveled next to choices or an option to view like a tool tip. For example, what relationship type you have from choosing friend with benefits vs. Just a regular sneak, or what type of traits you'll gain from choices.

It's not a bad game, for be honest the story is pretty okay for a porn game.
It's mainly a NTR/sharing game so if you re not into it, don t play this game.

It's good porn story if you have time to spare into this game, but not good gameplay mecanic.
The gameplay mecanics a mainly the choice made* , the problem is, for unlock scene, you frequently need trait you find if you do something specific.

In consequence, a good part of content are locks for arbitrary reason and if you want unlock it, you have to restart game until you understand how unlock.

*More the path you choice

Wifey's Dilemma Revisisted is a clunky VN pretending to be a time management game about a cute Asian girl and her husband of convenience.

While I don't hate the story, the presentation and gameplay is just barely shy of reprehensible. The game presents itself as a time management game where you can go to work or hang out with the wife. In reality, going to work basically never does anything so you try to hang out with the wife and if you can't, skip the week. This is not a time management game. It's a VN with more clicks. There's a couple of options in a menu between "actions" but they're basically never utilized or updated. It's a pretty worthless system, but not a complete dealbreaker.

The story is there, but basically a sideshow to the sex scenes. Essentially, wifey needs a job while she lives in hubby's house and works as a bartender or a corporate secretary (who's also a model maybe? It's a little nebulous). Depending on your decisions, she ends up on one path or the other. There's also NTR with her respective bosses, but it's easily avoidable if you aren't a raging asshole or actively searching it out.

Speaking of NTR, this game has some of the most awkward Netorase content I've ever read. If you maintain a good relationship with the wife, the wife will never cheat on but you can still share her with your sex rivals. However, you have to command her to do so and there's an underlying "if you insist" as she accepts. It's pretty fucked up and well...

I'm sensing a real theme with 3Diddly's games. In each game, the girls are just toys. I mean it is a vidya game, but hear me out. The girls are always just sitting there to be acted upon, never to be their own actual characters. They're low in personality, have little in the way of goals, and generally don't do anything relevant the player doesn't tell them to do. Frankly, there's just no attempt to make them remotely human, and that makes them uninteresting.

Overall, I can only recommend Wifey's Dilemma if the art really speaks to you. The sex scenes are tolerable, but generally not worth chewing through the story or manipulating the game's stats to unlock them.

(v 0.37)
As others have already said:
- rather poor story.
- convoluted stat system.
- too many paths and variables. (for my personal taste)
- like his previous games:
+ need to replay several times to see different paths that are not that interesting to begin with.
+ interactions between characters are "robotic". (lifeless, like the author has never had any interactions with any other normal human beings in his life) (which was already a problem in "Sugar Baby Galore)
- Graphically not bad, but it's a real chore to try and play this "game".

I am a big fan of the Dev's work, but this is not his best.

The mechanics are weird/partially unused/cumbersome and the story progression awkward and patchy. It is unclear why she reacts as she does and choices are blocked arbitrarily because you don't have points in some obscure category that no one really cares or talks about.

It's unfortunately an uninspired story that doesn't do anything new with flat characters. Meh.

I'm guessing the ntr path is what takes this to another level.
as of now, going on the vanilla paths, it's alright.
I haven't seen too many games where the mc puts down/defeats (no deaths involved here(yet)) one of the rivals written to ntr him in the true route. So that was actually surprising and nice while the wife losing some love for the mc here is too hollywood goody goody.

Either way, the game isn't too appealing to me so I might not check for future updates.
Yeah. I'm done and out. Didn't check anything new. Just made up my mind.

Not one of the games I recommend. Not because the content may not be what you want. The content you want will probably bore you unless you like most of the content I did not like.

It's hard to really judge how good or bad this game is simply because the initial premise makes my eyes roll.

So you're a lad, you've been simping over this girl since high school. She doesn't give you the time of day and goes off dating other people, just living her best life which is fine and all. But suddenly she's about to get deported so comes to you and straight up, with no preamble says "we should get married".... like..... what?

No discussion over what to do, no reference to the other boyfriend apart from "oh we broke up" or literally any of the other boyfriends, just straight into "we should get married." and not only that, but she even goes "we can have a fake marriage" just in case the MC was in ANY doubt to what she feels about you. Lad.... tell her to boost and go live your own life.

It really hammers home the stereotype of being friendzoned which is enough for it to be two stars. and the MC bites her hand off like a colossal virgin. Lad, have some self respect. Not to mention in the first real dialogue you as a character have with the girl there's a lot of internal dialogue about you trying (and failing) to not look at her chest. She's wearing a low cut top. Jesus Christ lad. There's an option to remove your portrait from any of your dialogue. I'm assuming this was given as an option to ensure players wouldn't see the MC's massive neckbeard.

The premise is interesting, fake marriage and all but it's ruined by the introduction of the girl, who's obviously not into the MC in that way and the absolute wetness of the MC. And really, what chance has any game got when you're introduced to two characters and both are awful? Oh sure I'm sure the MC can simp enough during the game to make Mei love him to make the marriage real and all but really, given how it starts, why should the MC even want to try and win her over?

Ren'Py - Wifey's Dilemma Revisited [v0.30b] [3Diddly Games]

I must say @3Diddly, this up date is wonderful and your game quality is so much better with the diverging paths is so much better then your past game. You truly are a role model for the way you code you game to work so well! I take it you have testers before release to make sure it doesn't have glitches with each update? Or have you gotten so good at your coding that's no longer a worry lol?

I honestly wonder how this VN will end and how many paths will be possible? Main thing is never a full on cucking only path for the NTR/cheating path. There is a possible path but you don't have to touch it, unlike many similar games out there. Where they are 90% or more cucking when its NTR. You seem you have that almost perfect balance to the game.

You almost have made a perfect game when it comes to story plot, how the coding changes the dialog depending to choice and so on! Why I say almost is it's my opinion, I can put money on it someone will say I'm way off the mark within a week of posting this and that so and so sucks and this needs improvement.... But honestly I simply say now that they are wrong to me as your making almost perfect game with this to what I know other people make and what I have played. Also in comparison to your other games made this one is by far the most refined one you have made thus far!

Anyway keep up with the mind blowing effort you do and hope you keep making games forever lol.... Although I guess you possibly might get sick of it one day, just hope that never happens!

I honestly look forward to the 3Diddly universe's future.

fun game. defo has potential to be a top game as more content is added.

actually has choices and branching paths unlike a lot of games on this site

hard to find decent ntr on here so if you're into it.. you'll be happy with those paths. other paths are available
