Hearts on Parole

So this game is good, but there is some issue. Some, character are strange, like if they where trowed together too fast (i mean by that the design), so be aware of some consistency issue in the quality of some. overall the story is interesting and not a repeat of other game, as such, i would like to maintain the 4 stars for the story itself. So in short, pardon some bad render and at least try to follow the story.

Really excellent writing. I was a little concerned at the start, there's some well howdy yeehaw bless your heart thrown about, the MC has some gruff stoic SOCOM badass stuff going on, and the premise of the game suggests there wouldn't be any sex with the parolees, or if there were, it'd be insane. All the above are true, but they're handled quite gracefully and carefully. The MC's badassness is underplayed, if anything; this isn't the blatant OP MC isekai stuff you see sometimes. Every character has their own tone and speech, and the dialogue is snappy, quick, and witty, making it quite enjoyable. Sexual content is actually very low, with only one scene so far. That'd normally turn me off, but I was engrossed by the story and the relationships, and am eager to see how it turns out. The MC is a walking cliche, the tormented uberwarrior who's soft was a grizzly bear until provoked, and the girls do all fall over their feet for him though, so if that's really offputting to you, I'd give this game a pass. It's the girls that are the highlight of the game.

A fantastic story of coming to term with loss and how to move on and who with. You play As Bryon who is a parole officer living his life not to the fullest. That is until a lovely bunch of ladies are introduced into his life. Will he open up to these women to form new friendships and possibly something more? Story - A man finding love and friendship is nothing new to an AVN but the Mc and presentation make this game stand out. The setting of the town and workplace makes it a fully fleshed world. It also presents enough Drama and secrets to keep us engaged. Music - A fantastic choice of humorous, atmospheric, romantic, and heartfelt choices lend strong emotional moment to scenes. Gameplay - Standard fair and choices. Easy for readers to figure out if they get points with a girl or not. Harem or not it's your choice. Each girl can be wooed or not. No penalties. so go nuts. MC (Byron) name is not changeable. Mod is required for those that care about that. Love Interests - 11 lovely ladies to choose from or all of them. (As of this build only 10 are visible in the story with the 11th one being added soon) All ranging from different personalities. builds, and backgrounds. So There should be a couple of ladies that should hit your fancy. Kudos to the dev for reworking this game to bring a product that you can tell he is passionate about. Can't wait to see where this goes.

With the release of the v3.5 rework, the quality of the renders and models has improved dramatically, which lets me rate this a full 5 stars. Good variety among the LIs, and competent writing make this a VN with a bright future ahead of it.

Disclaimer : me reading these raving reviews and being quite skeptical about whether it's really that good given the renders were kinda mehhh....but oh boy.... .. .it's so much fckin good boys!!!! (The reviewer below me, Lenesiah, convinced me to try it based on their review and I am here to convince others now). (Review is for 0.3v there's only one H-scene as of yet. If you are looking for quick FAP, look away since the piece is not here for supplying run o' the mill p0rn. It's here to service your heart so it's taking it's sweet time ). Premise : parole office (ex-military badass body frame and protector of women) who basically is preventing his paroles from making bad decisions and helping them from trouble. Mix of slice of life, drama, and crime. Pros Writing is the shining piece here. Trust me this feels so real and grounded. music is nicely done as well. I didn't find myself skipping. Humor is well done as well. Really well done military humor, mental health themes etc. MC is actually banging good. Nice personality. Doesn't have creepy monologue. Does think like a normal human and talks like a normal human. Does sometime get the porny logic but keeps it very limited to what you would think in real life just a fleeting thought but isn't guided by it. LIs have distinct personalities. Cons : More intimacy in h-scene. There's one scene as of 0.2 and I feel like you could have done more intimacy or foreplay. Maybe more kissing or intimate talk could have been more banger. It was still good nonetheless. Renders do improve from 0.1-->0.2 but definitely more room for improvement along with zhuzhing up the UI. I always appreciate having built in sliders for changing font size, text box opacity and such. Verdict : Enough said, just pick up this piece you won't regret it! Has like 5 hr of content on 0.3v release already.

I won't fool anyone : as for 0.3.3, graphism are lacking, as the animations. BUT, after playing about a hundreds of games in there, I can say for sure HoP as the potential of a diamond in a rough. Yes, at time, the power fantasy may be a little bit too much, mileage may vary, but dialogues are great, humor is on point, staging is good and music is the cherry on top. I deleted the game when I first saw the main screen, don't be like me on this, but do give it a chance like I did afterward, it's worth your time, even as bad as the graphisms are currently. 5 out of 5 for support & visibility, hope you the best !

The writing is really good and the humour fitted perfectly with mine. The LI are great so far, my favs are Sierra, Kiera, Zen and Jujen. Overall its a great AVN, sure the renders are a bit rough in the first 2 versions but Magnum already said he will remake them so full 5 stars from me and I can only recommend to try it out.
