Family Secrets

This is now the 3rd time this AVN has deleted all persistent data this one now being labeled as a "Rework" dev is milking and constantly reworking not actually progressing anything forward. Despite changing MC's name, Tina refers to him as Alex This isn't worth your time if the dev isn't going to complete anything ever. AVN itself has no lewds yet & very little character development Bailing on this one

VERSION: 0.2.1b SUMMARY: A VN that looks much better than what its written... RATINGS: (out of 5): NOTE: The following are my own criteria and may require more context, so keep an open mind. Models: 4 Animations: 3 General Visuals: 3 Characters: 1 Story&Pacing: 1 Writing&Dialogue: 1 UI & Gameplay: 2 Content Quality: 2 Sounds & Music: 3 H-Content & Fetish: 1 Average: 20 of 50 possible points giving a 40% rating i.e. 2 stars. PROS: Models (LIs) and woman look generally good. Music and ambient sounds are nice. General visuals are pretty decent and environment seems reasonably fleshed out CONS: Story is a little "non-believable", having family that never met each other, simply offer a stranger place to stay? I find that hard to just believe...I would have opted to just go with family that keep in touch but seldom see each other due to life etc etc. Keep it simple and not create such unbelievable conditions... Added to above, the dialogue can be stupid, e.g. the MC narrates that the Aunt is not his blood Aunt, but she is married to his Paternal Uncle...why state that? Unless we expect the uncle to have married his actual blood sister? In "normal" society, usually its either your aunt or uncle thats blood related, but not both! Unless this is the devs norm? Dialogue is bad, with bullshit and weird statements that are made, which really have no place in the conversation, make no sense in the context and simply is not the way "normal" people talk or think... MC looks like a child of 14-16yo, has zero sex appeal and is 100% perverted shit that can't get his head out the pussy clouds, which contradicts what we expected him to be, based on the intro. Read my opinions. Simple missing UI settings like dialogue box opacity missing, which simple hides too much of the scene without it. Really very little content and almost nothing added since the first release. Solid waste of time IMO. FINAL REMARKS, OPINIONS & SUGGESTIONS: Remarks like the Aunt not being blood related but the Uncle being paternal Uncle are stupid and then the dev goes further and in the next sentence states the Aunt isn't his real aunt either, how the fuck is that? Is she married to his paternal Uncle or not? If so, she is the MCs real Aunt...by marriage, but Aunt none-the-less...so again the developer puts down a lot of bullshit and over complicates whats really a simple matter...sheesh... Weird statements the characters make don't make much sense to me, e.g. MC: "Just like some retarded jerk who has never met an adult woman in his life" this makes absolutely fuckol sense to me... Why not simply stay "just like some sad pervert who has never got laid or spoken to an attractive, mature woman before" at least that makes somewhat more sense... MC acts like a newborn that has never experienced life, the way he goes on about the aunt and saying he has never "seen such beauties before"...these odd statements follow up one after another, in such way that you really cant ignore the "weirdness" of these them and how they are nonsensical. Another e.g. "hugged me deftly, like a couple in love" WTF? Unless i'm mistaken deftly implies quickly, so how could that be like a couple in love? Their hugs would linger and be passionate, close as if longing...which would make fuckol sense since the MC never met this woman before... While this is true for most young males, we are told to believe our MC is a hard working, focused young man...right? That all of a sudden as we start this game, did a complete 180 and now all his inhibitions are gone and his horny stupid man-child....right...? This just fuels my argument to this poorly planned and scripted plot with its equally poor dialogue. This whole game reads and plays out like a perverted, sex starved "family" who have no reservations screwing the related MC. At least they flirt that hard but don't put out "yet" So the developer rushes to start but then blueballs the player and crawls through the content just to get a burst of speed then slow again...(hopefully my analogy makes sense) Game looks good, but is written very poorly and based on a concept and plot that has been done countless times before and also many times better by other devs/writers. If you simply play the first few scenes, you will notice the poor dialogue and simply WEIRD statements...I mean really...FKING WEIRD. I believe the developer is not English or simply does not have the writing skills to string a convincing dialogue/plot/script together and should recruit someone to redo ALL of it. Sadly this puts the game in a very bad spot as VNs are firstly a reading experience and then a visual one, and unless you love "porn logic" stories that make little sense but have some eye candy I would skip this game completely.

A good start. Characters renders are decent quality and sexy. Story line is pretty typical for a school theme. Renamable MC would be a nice touch for an easy upgrade. Definitely worth a play and keeping an eye out for further development and upgrades. I give it 4 stars for potential, plot not developed enough yet for a higher rating.
