A Wife's Life is a text-based, point-and-click adult game made with Ren'Py by Kerosine_NTR. It follows a newly married man and his wife as they settle into a new town, then struggle with money. The wife takes a job he dislikes, and the player must decide whether to push her to quit or support her through the hardship. Its style uses animated visuals and focuses on cheating and netorare themes.
The current build is v1.0.0, released on March 27, 2025, and development is finished. It runs on Windows, Linux, and Mac, is written in English, and is uncensored. The latest update closes out the last of the three story routes: the wife keeps the camp job, while the husband declines Adriana's treatment.
Developer's description
The plot of A Wife's Life centers around a young couple who have just gotten married and moved to another town. As the newlyweds settle into their new home, they face financial problems, which lead to a series of events. One day, the husband finds out that his wife has found a new job. He really doesn't like her new job. But what is he supposed to do? Should he get his wife to quit her job or support her to get rid of their financial problems? What will the consequences of his choice be? Play A Wife's Life to find out.
v1.0.0
This new update will be the final one for the main version of the game, wrapping up the third and final storyline branch, where the wife doesn’t quit her job at the camp, and the husband decides to refuse treatment from Adriana.
v0.9.5
You’ll find out where the protagonist’s jealousy and suspicions will lead him. Did his wife really cheat on him? Or is it just Samuel’s scheming? And what happened to his sister? Could he have ruined her too?
v0.9.0
As you might have guessed, the next update will continue the branch where the main character refused treatment with Adriana. This branch will contain more hidden infidelities compared to the branch where the main character agreed to the treatment. How will his life unfold in this case? How long will he tolerate his wife’s infidelities—or will he at all? And how will she behave?
We promise that the last remaining branch will be as exciting as possible, as this path has been planned from the very beginning.
v0.8.5
The new update will continue the branch where the wife stayed working at the camp, and the main character continued his treatment with Adriana. We hope you'll enjoy what we've prepared for you.
v0.8.0
We remind you that the new update will focus on the storyline where the wife quits her job at the camp. This time, the update will feature more shared content, but the amount of new content will be roughly the same as usual. Some parts have been adapted from previous updates, slightly modified to fit this branch better.
However, we are confident that you will enjoy what we have prepared for you!
Oh, and yes—the storyline where the wife quits the camp job will conclude in this update. As mentioned earlier, we’ve decided to stop unnecessarily extending the plot by repeating events. This approach wasn't the best, and we've decided it's time to end that practice.
We’ve also added a
Quick Start
button in the main menu, allowing you to jump straight into the new content.
Additionally, this update will
not
include the content protection we used last time. While it might return in the future, the game will not be protected this time.
v0.7.5
The storyline remains the same for now, as I continue developing the same branch as before. This time, more off-phone events have been added, which I hope everyone will enjoy. I believe the first half of the update will be particularly well-received—I especially enjoyed working on it.
The update size is about the same as usual. Since the level of support has plateaued, we’re unable to grow further. We’re hopeful that this will change in the near future.
v0.7.0
The main focus of this update is on the wife and the mother. The content is roughly split between them. Additionally, it’s important to note that we’ve continued the storyline where the wife stays at the camp and the husband continues his treatment with Dr. Adriana. This path received the most votes in the poll, so we prioritized it.
v0.6.5
Regarding the content, only the storyline where the wife stayed working at the camp will be continued this time. The storyline where she resigned will be continued next time, provided it wins in the poll we’ll conduct after this update is released. Therefore, the content in the new version of the game will focus on the wife who stayed working at the camp. One secondary character will be introduced, who will assist the MC on his path to his new life as a cuckold. Otherwise, everything will remain the same.
v0.6.0
In the last post, we spoke about what awaits you in the new update, and today we’d like to remind you that the main plot of the new update is focused on the MC’s wife. Depending on the choices you made in the previous version of the game, the wife will either continue working at the camp or… Hehe.

v0.5.0
Well, since the game is nearly linear with the wife and mother being the only available paths, we suppose it’s obvious what kind of content the new update is focused on. Overall, we haven’t added any new mechanics and have focused solely on writing the dialogues. Time is limited, but we’ve managed to create an update that’s about the same size as usual. It might even be slightly bigger than the last one. The content is roughly evenly divided between the wife and mother of the MC.

v0.4.0
What's in store for you?
Well, first of all, the continuation of the story. Since our game is quite linear at the moment, it’s hard to say exactly what you will see. Overall, it will be the continuation of the main character’s wife’s and mother’s stories, continuing their corruption. However, some player choices from previous parts will be utilized in the next part. For example, have you ever wondered how the main character’s wife would react to his affair with Katherine? She surely won’t be happy about it. Or, for instance, how will Henry and Jenaveve’s relationship develop if the main character decides to encourage his friend in courting his secretary? Interesting, right?
Moreover, in the next part, you will see more than just the continuation of the storyline. We’ve also decided to add a new element to the story: a website where someone has decided to upload photos of someone. You get what we mean, hehe?

I quite like the game, even though it's a bit grindy. The choice of the MFC, (his wife) is really attractive to me anyway. Pretty with a small build, just how I like them. His stepsister is also a good…

If you're not into NTR/cuckolding, you'll hate it. If you are, you'll love it. Minor spelling errors, but honestly compared to the amount of dialogue, it's not much. Scenarios are great and way more unique than other games like this.
