Shin's Family Life is a point & click adult title by Mystery Pizza, built with the Others engine. Its visuals are 2D CG, and you take the role of a male protagonist. After your mother has dated Kento a few times, she marries him, and you move into his small apartment. While she unpacks her limited belongings, she suddenly mentions that Kento has a daughter and hopes you will get along with her.
The current build is v0.6.0, released on January 22, 2024, and development is ongoing, not finished or a demo. It runs on Windows in English without censorship. This update adds Shoko resting, a shower partner selection scene, and shower scenes with Shoko, Aiko, and Rin. It also includes a boob-job scene with Saki, Suki's first scene, a new song, an illustration for Suki, and fixes for some dialogue issues.
