Fixes
- Fixed bugs with incorrect day skipping.
- Many players mistook the time skip on day 56 as a bug. This is actually part of the storyline. It will now display a message that time has passed at this point.
- If any days are skipped, it means you are going down a different line and events that could have happened to the heroine are left out.
Season 2 - v1.0.3
Hello everyone!!!
After the new update came out, a bunch of bugs and errors surfaced. I've already fixed everything (at least I think so), but maybe something else was left unnoticed. I remind you that I'm testing alone, and sometimes I may miss details. If you run into problems, please message me on Discord - any help is greatly appreciated.
What's changed:
Content with Liam has been temporarily removed
His story has been put on pause due to possible risks of getting banned on the platform. But don't worry - the script has been ready for a long time, and I will definitely return to it after the main story is finished. Alas, now I have to take into account the rules of the platforms.
Fresh Story” is now with us
We decided to keep this name for the game to avoid confusion across platforms. You will still be able to enjoy Kate's adventures, and the ability to choose your own name for the main character has been added.
Old saves will no longer work
You will need to start a new play through to start the game correctly. This is due to changes in the project build.
Solving cache problems
If the game gives errors related to the `****.rpyc` file, perform the following steps:
- Delete the contents of the folder:
`Users/NameUser/AppData/Roaming/RenPy/FreshStory2`.
(as well as all other folders associated with the game).
- Remove the `cache` folder from the project directory at the path:
`game/cache/`.
- Restart the game so that it creates new caches.
Sorry for the inconvenience, and thank you for your support. I'm trying to fix bugs as quickly as possible, and I'm already preparing new content for the February update.
This isn't the end of the story - there's a lot more to come.
Season 2 - v1.02
Hi everyone, we are still actively working on improving your game version. Here is the list of fixes that have already been made:
Correct display of character name in the English version. Now, your selected name will be displayed correctly throughout the game.
Fixed errors with missing images (e.g. “Image ‘19035’ not found”).
Corrected the path “Without Archie” so that all events in this branch develop logically and without failures.
Restored the correspondence module in the phone - now the messages are displayed correctly.
If the heroine becomes an online model, you will no longer miss a date because of it!
P.S. Sorry for any inconvenience these bugs may have caused, and thank you for reporting them! I read all your comments and try to fix things as soon as possible.
By the way, for those who choose the “No Archie” path, we have good news: the February update will be especially busy for this branch. There are tons of new events and content waiting for you.

First Release
Not for me. I got bored after half an hour of just reading, without any choices or interesting scenes. The MC is lackluster, her BF is annoying to look at, in general I didn't like the whole style. Perhaps down the road it gets more interesting, but I don't plan on wasting 2-3 hours to find out that I still don't like it
Started Kate/Fresh Story thinking it’d just be another “hot girl in the city” VN, and… yeah, no, I was not ready for how into it I’d get. I played it yesterday and immediately had that urge to tell someone about it. First off, the main girl is gorgeous. Like, jaw-drop gorgeous. But the thing is, the game doesn’t just ride on that. It actually makes you care about her. The slow-burn corruption is done way better than I expected. She’s not just some blank slate who flips into party mode overnight, she’s got morals, she hesitates, she struggles with temptation. And sometimes you are the one deciding how far she’s willing to go, which makes the spicy moments land harder because you’ve earned them. The supporting cast is a fun mess, some sweet, some shady, some you know are gonna stab you in the back eventually. Season 2 really cranks things up: higher stakes, messier relationships, moments where I literally went, “Noooo, don’t do that,” and then leaned in anyway to watch it burn. New chemistry moments (Kira × Liam, more Paul) actually deepen the relationships instead of just being filler scenes, which makes the tension even juicier. The pacing is slow sometimes, but honestly, that’s part of the charm, it’s all about the tease before the payoff. The dev’s been cleaning things up too: better translations, fixed that annoying day-skip confusion, squashed some bugs. It’s still semi-kinetic in places (choices don’t always blow the story wide open), but it works for this style. If you’re into slow-burn drama, gorgeous art, and a heroine who feels like a real person instead of a doll, this is worth your time. I’m already impatient for the next update.
Positives: The MC is extremely beautiful and has a perfect body! She's a 10/10. The sex scenes typically include one animation each (which is not great but also not bad). The renders are generally very good, some are outstanding. Negatives: Unavoidable sex scenes with Archie (the boyfriend, who is super annoying). This happens several times. Unavoidable sex scenes between Archie and other girls (these are shown no matter what). Most situations/plot points are unavoidable. Often there's no choice given. And the choices often seem to be quite superficial. There is literally no sex (penetration) between the MC (the main girl) and anyone other then the stupid (ex-)boyfriend. The entire season 1 only has sex scenes with the boyfriend (who is a total asshole) and these scenes are not particularly hot. I'm not even counting the minor scene when the MC is watching the friend having sex for a short time. So the season is short and lacks porn. Season 2 is equally slow, I mean extremely slow in progression. The entire game just feels like one big tease. Again, there is NO sex!? It's incredible. And no, I'm not counting seeing the ex-boyfriend fucking a girl. There's literally just blowjob/footjob. The started off mediocre and got progressively worse. Only a few moments are erotic, but overall it's "meh" at best. Bugs. Suddenly the text is in Russian (or something similar). The settings are definitely set to English.
This is a very good FMC story. I enjoyed reading so much that I ended up buying it on Steam. Visually, the FMC looks absolutely gorgeous. That is a huge plus and the main strength of the game. Some of the other women like Lisa are also very good looking. The game does not have deep branching but there are enough choices to not make it a railroad towards corruption, the FMC has enough agency to say no to old/disgusting men and pick which ones to do something with. There is no discernable AI CG which is another plus. It could probably do with better audio and music for immersion, and maybe some more branching (maybe a branch where the FMC builds up a lot of confidence and gains the upper hand to be more assertive). But that does not take away anything from this being a good experience well worth the download.
It's a pretty good game, but it lacks features. For example, the game is based on the perspective of the heroine, lacks content about male worship, and lacks a sense of conquest. I hope that in the subsequent content, more corruption, training, and humiliation content will be added.
Nice scenes, little to much text, but girls are awesome. I like it how the MC struggeling into new adventures. Hope there will be soon season 3. Maybe variance in the girls Charakter are a new nice step, older women, pregrant...
Review of [Season 1&2 ] Female protagonist game, although sometimes it seems like not... In the game you are a girl named Diana who lives at her friend's house since they have emotional problems... your boyfriend also lives with other people and you do what you can to be able to find a home together. You find a job in a bar but it is not just any bar since you have to seduce customers and show your womanly weapons. Little by little you earn money although there comes a time when you are extorted because your boyfriend attacks a very powerful man and things change. The same thing happens with your boyfriend since little by little you find yourself attracted to the world of being a slut and you discover that you like your roommate's boyfriend. In the end what happens what happens... PROS Decent Renders Animations with sound Nice corruption and NTR Interesting Slow burn CONS Robotic animations (from SEASON 1) Poor Sound Poor Light Ambience The Spanish language does not work in SEASON 2 RATING : Content: ⭐⭐⭐ Sound:⭐⭐ Renders: ⭐⭐⭐ Characters: ⭐⭐⭐ Animations:⭐⭐⭐ Final conclusion: ⭐ ⭐⭐ MEH FEMALE PROTAGONIST GAME
First of all, this is not a female protagonist. During sex, we look at her through a man's eyes and decide to cum on his face on his behalf. Plus, he has a penis with a small tip. The story is told in third person. The main character in this game is some kind of male narrator, possibly the author himself. I play games to be the hero of the game and live a different life. Here they're trying to sell me some dumb narrator under the guise of a female protagonist. The plot is boring, I've seen it in hundreds of similar games. The models are also taken from standard sets and not even sculpted. There is no light work. Everything is flooded with surgical shadowless light, so it looks flat. It's a disaster.
Yes, the plot seems to jump around a little, it's not perfect. But the models are off the charts hot, the sex scenes are amazing, and the steady corruption is a turn on. One of my favorites so far, granted I'm new to this world of AV games and novels.
i've played this game before and it was hot (100 marks to the art/renders), but never felt like rating it until after i played this last update [S02 0.8]. God Kate cheating scenes are so fucking hot. eg: the time where both the couple met at the cafe and when Kate and Denis went back alone and groped each other, short scene but writing wise sooooo hot. I expected them to go off alone in the VILLA (climax of update) and Kate blows Denis but didnt happen in the path i played. However there was an even hotter scene in the Villa where they cheat on a path where Kate was faithful. well written, high expectations for the next updates.
Review Version S2 v0.6.4 I'd rate this on as a 3.5 if I could so 3 stars for now as 4 star felt to generous. For what it is the story isn't terrible , it's passable. It's a slow burn corruption which is a good thing. However the problem arises from the forced boyfriend until you can get rid of him. At one point she suspects him of cheating and depending on your path you can get some software to spy on him. She installs it but never uses it once , so unless it comes up later in Season 2 feels like a waste and point plot point. As Kate will catch him cheating no matter what. Then there is some odd inconsistencies. Starting with Liam at one point it is mentioned how he is Kira's younger brother. But then like 20 minutes later he is trying to convince Kate into a kiss as he wants to win Kira back. He is asking as she is an ex girlfriend he lives with ??? Then one of the main plotlines is the boyfriend owes money to someone. But some of the dialogue acts like it's Kate's debt which is real confusing to me. As it would all be on him especially if you choose to leave him later. There is small typo or grammar mistakes here and there. But then there is parts where a word once in awhile isn't translated into English. Not to often but it does come up. The renders and animations are great however that was the main reason I gave this a try. For me this game just gets better with Season 2. Might be worth waiting for more updates or season 2 is complete if you only care about sex and not the character progression of Kate. As currently she still is not having sex with anyone but her boyfriend but she is very close to the point where she will start to do things with other men.
I like it, nothing new but works, the mc its hot, so far im happy with how i can have a say in her behavior, but i cant give a better review coz of its crazy inconsistency, jumps in the sotry i dont know where it comes from, characters changing their roles from one scene to another, boyfriends that become spouses, brothers that become ex's, and so on, i know this isnt about the story, and all porn games have inconsistency, but this game takes it to a new level hehe, its like there are diferent ppl writing the story and they dont speak between them, that or the writer its schizophrenic, it would only need a little more atention to detail and it would get another star from me
Story/Character: The story resolves around you playing as a female protagonist named Kate whom you have a boyfriend called Adrian wanting to start a brand new life in a growing city. However she faces challenges (mostly cocks and guys wanting to get in her pants). Kate is somewhat of a strong willed character, she does not delve into sucking every man cock’s in her sight or by slight peer pressure. A character that has morales that slowly begins to fade as you make more questionable decisions. Regardless she still has morales that she stands upon, however those Morales are a bit contradictory in season 2. The supporting characters of her slutty friends also fan the flame of NTR, encouraging to become more sexually vulnerable and adventurous. Adding spice and more context to the NTR. However upon Season 2, the tone of the story changes after an incident. I won’t spoil the plot, but she goes WILDDDD. It appears that many people did not like this change of pace. I myself initially loved the change of pace at first, but then you quickly realised that Kate becomes a different person too quickly. She becomes more of an object than a person succumbing to corruption in season 1. I feel like the incident that cause the pace of season 2 should of not changed Kate that dramatically. You could say it was a whirl wind of emotions caused it but had I would say poor character development was the culprit here. Content: Happy to comment, there is a decent amount of NTR content in the game. It stems across 2 seasons. Having a great variety of corruption arcs/stories that will cater to most NTR fans. There’s a rich guy who wants to blackmail your boyfriend. Your neighbourhood fat boss. Classic gym bro. Nerdy guy whos rich. As well as little brother whom is clearly 18. Each corruption arc is done adequately and tastefully. But as above changes in season 2. Season 1 is mostly of the slow burn corruption, whilst Season 2 is more of a fuck the consquences and let’s go scenes. To my pleasant surprise as well there is swinging content that was done very well. The swinging content was actually one of my favourite scenes throughout the game. Gameplay: The gameplay is just your typical NTR AVN at the moment. There will be scenarios where you obviously can either pick no or pick yes where you succumb to hands of NTR dudes, It’s pretty standard of the mill and does it’s job well. I do wish that we could transfer the choices from Season 1 to Season 2, instead of trying to remember the choices. Visuals: The visuals are absolutely beautiful. Arguably some of the best I’ve seen in a NTR game. The visuals alone are worth playing this game, if you’re looking for eye candy. All the models even the guy models are done well, except Amanda (you’ll see why, it’s probably on purpose). Kate, the female protagonist is a brunette bombshell. She has a great face and a great body to match as well. Sex animations are solid and at times very well.. Sex scenes and NTR scenes are thought out, but at times are very oblivious. Some of the sex scenes were so beautiful, they were almost photo-realistic! The overall feel of the HUD and UI feels very clean. It adds a level of professionalism and polish to the game that makes it feel more premium. Sound: The sound design is great! Great music selection in the game. It’s not just one constant background music through the whole game. The music is fitting and catering to each scenario. Moans and sex noise are also great as well. This was still an great NTR game, that I thoroughly enjoyed and had an immense fappable experience whilst playing it. I rarely play NTR with a main female protagonist, just because I do love the experience of being jealous as a male protagonist. But just the change of pacing and character of Kate season 2 did throw me off. It honestly did lower down to a 4 star because of that. But the sheer quality of the render and sex scenes in season 2 were just so phenomenal alone make the game worthy play even if you're not a fan of NTR. Spoiler I can’t wait until Kate actually gets fucked by another guy! It’s a build up that I will be excitedly waiting for!!!
I just love this girl. She's so cute and at the same time SOOOOO sexy! I really like stories seen from the female side. It's more interesting and it's a real turn-on to read about her feelings and the way she gets horny. It's much more exciting than when it's a guy as MC. Then it's just fuck, fuck, fuck without any deeper emotions. So I give this Dev 5 stars and he has earned it with his story and excellent graphics.
The graphics are great. Character designs fantastic. But season one as of this post is a mess. The dev rearranged a lot of content but didn't fix the dialogue so you get a lot of references to stuff that hasn't happened. Supposedly he is in the process of fixing that so we shall see. Get that fixed and season one would be a 4 star, with more content for season one it could have been 5 stars. It felt rushed. Season two has me done with the game. Its the reason for a 2 star. If it wasnt for the graphics it would be a 1 star. The friends from season one who seemed like great support characters for Kate have been written into the ground. Kira is increasingly becoming shadier with every scene, Lisa just fucked Archie a day after Kate and him went on break after Kate caught him cheating in the act. Meanwhile Kate is still refusing to get dicked down because "archie deserves better". We are in season 2, and the only guy she has fucked, is her shitty boyfriend who isnt even a her boyfriend anymore? It seems the only intent of season 2 is to ruin characters who you grow fond of in season one and to watch Kates life implode around her and to watch her, do what, complain about a bikini 13 years olds where without any issues in our society and yet Kate says "its too revealing"? Hell na. This dev is wack. Whatever he is doing in season two, he needs to second guess the fuck out of it because he is destroying a game that could have been very good.
This one is on the line for me. The first season is a slow burn but doesn't have a story that's good enough for such a rythm. The choices in it matter so little it feels completely railroaded and they seem not to impact at all on season 2. And then on s2 it flips completely, seems everything suddenly moves up to 1000 and characters take a 180º flip on their personalities. But render quality is pretty decent to be honest. Animations are a bit basic and clumsy but are improving. Sound doesn't add much, a few things are present but meh. So, all in all, in the line for me. Probably will drop it but maybe will give it a few more updates to make sure.
S2 V.03 There is some things to like about this one, but quite a bit to not like. Pros. 1. MC is s.okong hot. 2. Some scenarios are decently thought out and hot. Cons. 1. Game is almost entirely NPC driven. A NPC suggests something and you the player are given a single Yes/No question, and then then entire scene plays like kinetic novel or you get no scene. 2. MC is very bland and boring in most cases. Most of it leads back to first problem I mentioned. Way to many missed chances to add decisions for the player that are just made indirectly by another NPC or over looked entirely. No chance to actually build Kate's character. Some people quote the writing, I think this is what they actually mean. I Would have much rather seen the NPC's take a step back and let me the player as Kate choose how I want play.. bitchy/stubborn attitude, shy/submissive tybe, or just a cheating slut. Lol, but all these decisions are just completely taken our of your hands. Some Examples: 1. Harry route. Instead of Kate getting to choose how to react to Harry, maybe dumping coffee on his, or just ignoring it, or egging him on.. Instead no decision is given and Archie shows up and just beats the crap out of him. Which now completely makes no sense that we've gone from just one date of being blackmailed into, to a second date and having love fantasies about. 2. Lisa And Kira. Basically both are shameless whores who will just throw themselves at every guy they come into contact with, and Kate is just left watching, going well I guess this is just how people act. I myself would have liked to see a complete 360 degree reversal where Lisa and Kira were a little more normal and Kate being the being the one given the decision to act out and how. Like at the gym with Lisa.. Instead of Lisa doing all the slutty teasing, Kate should have been the one to get to decide how she wants to act, remain loyal, light teasing, or leaning into the whole situation, and then Lisa being the one to kinda question Kate later on her behavior and mentioning Archie. 3. Office with Oscar. At the beginning it was fun learning that there was some competition for the position with Oscar. Once again I was hoping Rose was just kinda of a regular bland character and maybe have the possibility to either legitimately out perform her for the position or play the shy submissive style do anything he wants just to get the postion, or slut herself out to win... but once again, doesn't take long to figure Rose is just a other shameless whore where if Oscar wanted to he could strip her naked, put a collar and leash on her and walk her around the office and show off his little per and she would do it. So now what... Kate's just supposed to out whore the whore. Once again Kate is just in the back seat watching going "Well, I guess that's just how people act." 4. Poker with Alex. The whole thing comes down to witch outfit you choose weather you win or lose. The rest just plays like a KN. Once again Kate should have been given decisions at the game to determine what the outcome was, Does she stop Archie from drinking? Does she Tease the the others to distract them? Does she take the bet for the lower to do whatever the winner says? Does she actually want to win? The whole thing could have been smoking hot and way better, but none of that ever happens. I could name more but those are just some examples of events where I envisioned more and just didn't get it. Conclusion: I can see how the game has many ranging ratings. It's mostly hit yes to see scenes or no to not. If you like the scenes as they are then you'll prolly like the game, but if you're like me and saw so manny more chances for more depth and character building. Then you probably won't be to impressed with it.
Kate is a VN featuring a very pretty girl named Kate, her boyfriend Archie, and a supporting cast of characters interested in corrupting or otherwise utilizing her to their own ends. The game is extremely pretty, both the characters and the environments. Absolutely no complaints in that regard. The animations are fairly short and a little awkward to navigate around given how they're linked with the text, but still a positive. The story and characters are rather lacking however. While the story might be about Kate, she has very little agency despite being the protagonist. There is a hidden corruption stat that locks or unlocks certain story options, but the overall path of the story is set in stone, or at least part one is. While not innately awful, it's more than a little annoying because of the illusion of choice. There are a lot of big choices that should change things and don't. And even beyond the choices themselves, Kate has little in the way of agency. Throughout the story, Kate is constantly and consistently acted upon, never the actor herself. While Kate might choose how she reacts to other characters, choosing her own fate is completely beyond her. Her job wants to put her in a maid outfit, her friends want to go to the beach, Archie wants to go to poker night, her boss wants her to attend a dinner party; notice how all these actions follow the desires of other characters and not Kate. The only time we see what Kate wants in this story is through her thoughts, never her actions. The story would be greatly improved if Kate were progressing towards a goal or vision of her choosing rather than those around her. There are some strong scenes in the story, particularly of the sexy variety, but they frequently feel like unrelated one shots rather than an over arching plot. While having a sporadic beach trip or vacation is fine, I feel like the game stretched unnecessarily when it gave Kate two jobs with two different storylines rather than focusing entirely on one. It would have made everything feel more cohesive. Overall, Kate is a very well presented game that lacks the story and characters to really take it to the next level. While the art and some of the scenes are very worthwhile, there is a whole lot of mainly tedious story to work your way through to get to them. Nevertheless, the game is really pretty enough to make your efforts worthwhile.
One of the best female protagonist games out there!Great renders, I like the scenario and Kate’s choices are always realistic. The last scene of the first season is a masterpiece! I am looking forward for season 2! Well done!
Absolutely shocking, the game fell off a cliff this season. Pointless writing, no direction in the plot, horrible lewd scenes and to top it off less and less content. No point of playing a Kinetic Novel portrayed as a VN.
