I'm stuck. The walkthrough says I can accept Sandy's advances at her house, but she talks about running out of drink and then kicks me out.

So it turns out I was limited by things I had no idea existed, until I followed the walkthrough explicitly. Completely missed the vodka bottle in the dining room that you need to give to Sandy, bad-mouthed the room and wrong choices on the dresses in the fashion show. That last one is kind of a shit decision from the dev. Basically a huge combination lock on the game content.

I was completely at a dead end with that section as well until someone here helped me. Even the walkthrough wasn't enough for me to understand, lol.

The only thing hard carrying this snoozefest is Joanna's model renders and some sex scenes... The narrative is absolutely bloody trash and shoved down the throat with "I have morality doubts, but hey, let's fuck regardless, cos I'm horny and lonely!!!!". Completed the first run back in 2021, but replaying this in late 2024 is just painful... I only gave this a go the first time, because I didn't give 2 shits about storyline, but now that priorities have changed, I don't know how people do genuinely enjoy this...

This is basically an S Tier when it comes to classic MILF/Incest Romance trope, nothing can top it unfortunately.
In addition, the technical quality of the game is very top shelf. And for me, given that it was one of the very first adult games I'd played, it really set my expectations up higher in that regard than maybe they should have been, because when you start at that level, its easy to get disappointed by others that fall way short, as most do.

I'm still aiming for that high I got with this game, sadly nothing did really hit home. And also this is a sandbox game done right! A lot of sandbox games are mostly RNG when it comes to triggering contents. But this shit flows so fucking good and doesn't drag out the content. Sandbox? Yes, you'll explore but it is needed for the story to continue.

I love and strongly prefer a sandbox to anything else. One directional VNs just become next/next/next and even if the content is good, I always find myself being bored and losing track of what's happened. And with a sex game, there's truly a level to it where when I play the next "quest" that unlocks a level with a sex partner, it adds an extra erotic kick which makes the whole experience so much better, even when there's no challenge involved. And when its seperated into segments like this, it feels like its all just so much easier to process, plus I really like the feeling of controlling the pacing and being able to go back and forth.

100% agree with how segmented progress will always be superior! With a gap between scenes it creates a breathing room and a room for internalizing what happened between earlier scenes. And a lot of devs are catering doing long story based VNs, but most of them fails massively with it being not sandbox. Coz, to be perfectly honest with a game that is as you said "next/next/next" it's so fucking hard to keep track on who we are pursuing and what the fuck happened then hahaha. A "next/next/next" game only succeeds if the story is pretty much linear with no branching whatsoever, because you can immerse yourself with scene after scene.

Absolutely. There are a few I tried where the content is actually really good. The renders are nice, the writing is solid, but as you said, I just lose track of who is who and what happened a few chapters ago, and it all becomes a blur.
