Watching My Wife is a Ren'Py adult visual novel by Illegible Mink, rendered with 3DCG art. You play a happily married man whose life changes as he and his wife explore swinging, netorare, and romance. The story includes a school setting and lets you choose how far their relationship moves and which direction it takes. Choices shape the couple’s path into shared intimacy, with no obvious return to their earlier routine.
The current build is v0.6.1, released April 8, 2023, and development is ongoing. It runs on Windows, Linux, Mac, and Android in English, with no censorship. The latest release adds a concluding wife-perspective episode, 350 new renders, and scenes tied to the Share, Cuck, and Cheat routes. It also updates the gallery, adds previews, revises developer notes, adjusts tags, fixes branching bugs, and polishes art and dialogue.
Developer's description
The story centres around you; a happily married man with a loving wife. The game follows your journey towards a new romantic awakening in which you broaden your love life to sample wife sharing. How far you go down this rabbit hole, and which direction you follow is up to you. What is certain is that there is no going back for the pair of you as you taste the forbidden fruit of wife sharing, hotwifing and cuckolding.

Final x.1 episode from the PoV of the MFC - from now all releases will be x.0 and from both perspectives.
350 new renders

Bug fixed with several if / else statements which led to the same scenes from different paths being shown in succession.
Various artistic and dialogue tweaks and improvements
Release 5.2
This now has a scene between wifey and Daniel in the bank, where she invites him to dinner too.
There is a dinner party scene with hubby, wifey, Karl and Daniel.
The sex scene from 5.0 now occurs after the party.
There is a morning scene between hubs and wifey when they discuss the party and the sex they had the previous night.
So we should, after 5.2, have a much clearer route towards converting wifey to sharing - as you'll see. I reckon you should restart 5.0 and run from there to get your
saves
reconfigured with the new material.
For those on the
Cuck
and
Cheat
routes:
I have fixed a bug which had wifey having a fling with Mark. This happened regardless of wifey's
Respect
score. This has now been fixed and will only initiate if your Respect is
low
enough. Saying that, this doesn't mean that if she doesn't partake that she won't regret not going the distance when she gets home.
Right - for now that's it - all I have to do now is
re-write
the Cheat path (change the dialogue mainly), and sort
6.0
out. Living the dream!
Release 5.1
An episode from the PoV of the MFC
170 new renders
Several sex scenes based on the Cuck and Cheat Paths.
Share path will be released separately as Release 5.2
Story takes the MFC perspective once the MMC returns from Clearwater Camp. It includes a deepening of wifey's relationship with Karl, and a shopping visit with the MFC and her best friend, Heather. The shopping trip continues to the home of Mark (Heather's current fuckbuddy). The story then moves home where MFC and MMC have sex - but for the first time the Cuck route is mentioned explicitly and wifey is encouraged to imagine another man there with them).

Release 5.0
An episode from the PoV of the MMC
333 new renders
Several sex scenes depending on route involving: Wifey, Debbie and/or Avery.
Story wraps up the MMC's visit to Clearwater Camp with the opportunity to continue the relationship with Debs or have a bash at Avery after her night of excess. Wifey goes out on a shopping trip with Heather (5.1), and returns drunk. MMC sees an opportunity to push his agenda forward through introducing porn to their sex life with positive (if you see it that way) results.
Reconfiguration of Respect parameter for Cuck and Cheat routes to ease the point at which those kinks kick in. To have this apply to the lesbian scene with Trish (4.1), roll back to start of wifey's visit. If it doesn't happen and you're working a low respect game, then you'll probably need to go farther back and either don't invite her to Clearwater or lie about losing Trish's file .

panemetcircenses2025-12-16★★★★★
I knew this wasn't finished and abandoned beforeI dipped into it, I just hoped there was enough content in it anyway since it's a 0.6 after all. But there just isn't. Right at the time things seems to get spicier…
Heritor2025-12-08★★★★★
TLDR – Competent VN that sets out a world and characters and introduces non-monogamy of three different styles you can select from, but is abruptly abandoned after the first real consummation – so really it’s all build up. This is…
Sabrac242025-12-01★★★★★
Even if it's not complete I think It's worth checking out, the writing is well done, the narrative is interesting, and showing us a bit of the wife's past was a cool move by the developer to make the story…
