Beyond Constraints by Mist Studios

Oh I have been waiting for this one since we talked about it last. Yours is a little nicer than what I wrote and discarded. I'll give it to the next update before casting judgement.

I considered waiting again until the next episode, both for better images and for more gameplay, but who knows how long that would be?

Office Perks by Amomynous Games

This is a nice game, and that has to be the first time I’ve said that as the first word to describe a game, but it fits. It’s not amazing, but it’s not boring, it’s just… nice. The renders are of a good quality, and there are plenty of sex scenes, which are generally pretty good. In fact, that’s one thing of note about the game – it’s basically a fuckfest.

At present (update 0.1.5) there are three weeks’ worth of gameplay, and after a point, it’s pretty much sex for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. It’s not a harem game, but to this point, you can be with all the girls in the game – though the dev notes state that won’t remain the case. There are a couple of points in the game where you can see the disappointment on the faces of some of the girls when they see you with others, so I suspect those first points of no return in each relationship may not be too far ahead.

The girls themselves are generally good looking, with the usual range of hot to really hot, but without anyone I consider to be a “worldie” (although Jenny in particular certainly has her moments). In personality though, I think there are a few who really stand out, with a clear top three for me of Jenny, Maria, and Eva.

The story is there, but I think there is so much time spent building the relationships with the girls that it sometimes takes a bit too much of a back seat. The girls definitely drive things forward though, and the story follows along well enough. I did mention to a friend that you always tend to get something like drugs, or gangs, or prostitution, or something else in games like these in order to create conflict, and it’s not necessary. Here, there isn’t anything quite so drastic (though I did think something was coming at one point), and it manages to stay a step or two clear of being boring, which is something many other games are unable to do.

Now I’ve finished my initial blind playthrough, I think I’m going to have to go back and set up a bunch of separate LI saves, and I look forward to seeing where each of them takes me – well, at least a few of them, anyway…

Office Perks by Amomynous Games

Swap Maria and Vampire girl round and I'd pretty much agree with your girl list.

Obviously I've spoken with you about this recently, so you know my thoughts and they're somewhat in line with yours. I just hope it picks up soon, rather than being the fuck fest it is. There's only so far sex will get you. And while you're quite right, it is airing away from being boring... Its a dangerous line to tread.

Because of this, I usually think of Office Perks as "Bare Witness if it didn't have any drama".

Apart from the poly paths, I can certainly see that. I forgot to mention in my review that I think the MC looks a bit weird though. He has the magic cock, but I don't think he has the sort of looks that would attract everyone to check the cock out in the first place

That's what I usually think when playing some other games, with the OP MC not being the worst offender imo. I think that in the future, an average AVN MC really should evolve towards having more attractive qualities rather than just sexual prowess, however great that might be.

Yeah, some of them are okay, but some of them just look...a bit odd. No More Money (RIP) is a good example - the MC there always looks like his scrunching up his eyes or something. Too many of them are variations of the same model though, bearing in mind there are fewer to choose from in the first place. BaDIK and Intertwined MCs turn up lots. Odd though that plenty of background male characters look fine but never seem to be upgraded to main characters - I wonder if it's because they don't have enough poses available or something like that?

Honestly office perks I couldn't finish my manslut play through there was way to much sex for me that I was getting bored with the game. I basically had to drop every path but my favorite 2 Nikki and Hayley I couldn't really get into the other characters that much. I probably will go back and play their paths at one point

Doesn't help I found it annoying how everytime they cum they squirt which was like 3-4 times per scene I thought it was only gonna happen like one time per scene maybe sometimes twice. But also was to stubborn to turn it off

Yeah, there's a lot of squirting - from memory, I don't think Nikki or Haley were squirters though (I'm currently setting up my individual saves though, so it's all a blur at the moment!). I notice that one of the poly paths appears to be Nikki and Haley though - I admit, they are probably my two least favourites of the six main girls though!

 

[Lagunavii]

If memory serves, only Jenny and Maria are squrters, but you can turn it off if needed.

yeah honestly everyone Loves Jenny or the others more I just couldn't get into the other characters all that much besides Nikki and Haley. I found myself kind of bored with the game when it wasn't a Nikki or Hayley scene after a certain point. besides I love how Nikki looks she is my favorite when it comes to looks. I had no idea that was a throuple path been awhile since I played.

ah thought it was every LI haha had no idea. tbh I'm just too stubborn to turn it off as I like it when it's not 3 times per scene haha

 

[Lagunavii]

I might be wrong about who can do it, but it's dont think it's everyone, when I was making notes for my own review I'd written something about all girls squirting, after seeing both Jenny and Maria's masturbagion at the start... I then struck it out as time went on cause I didn't think it was that prominent (unless I turned it off without realising and it is everyone)

For me, I didn't think the other characters beyond Jenny, Maria, and Eva are very well fleshed out yet, so it's not surprising characters like Nikki and Haley are less well liked.

The throuple path for those two has barely started though. There's a couple of scenes of them getting closer, but not in a "beyond friends" way, but then there's a scene where Haley says Nikki has invited her to do a "Scenes with Nikki" shoot and there's an "interested/not interested" choice that sets a flag for the throuple.

I might be wrong about who can do it, but it's dont think it's everyone, when I was making notes for my own review I'd written something about all girls squirting, after seeing both Jenny and Maria's masturbagion at the start... I then struck it out as time went on cause I didn't think it was that prominent (unless I turned it off without realising and it is everyone)

As I said, all a blur, but I want to say you're right on it being Jenny and Maria (and maybe Brandi too?) who squirt.

But, in the interests of science, I quickly loaded up the game and skimmed through the gallery. I thought it was just Jenny and Maria, but they have more scenes, so it appears more prevalent... however, Haley does squirt in one of her scenes that I saw.

Move the Chains by MissFortune

I wasn’t going to review this one, but figured some of the stuff I have to say might be useful, so…

I didn’t like this game, the story didn’t work for me and I admit to getting bored by it and skipping for a bit to see if it got better once some changes happened. I didn’t get far enough to find out before accidentally closing it (no confirmation dialog) while checking something in the gallery and I decided not to bother opening it back up again.

I’m not a fan of American Football at all (yes, I’m a Brit, that’s what it’s called), but I was willing to give the game a try because it’s not going to be the only subject matter involved. I like that there is a glossary included making the dialogue a bit like a Wikipedia article – when a sports term comes up, it’s in yellow, and if you click on it, a box opens up giving you a definition. The rest of the UI is neat as well, with a lot of time and effort obviously put into it.

At the same time, that UI was a little annoying. The aforementioned lack of a closing confirmation might catch some people out – I do remember seeing something about it in the game tutorial though. I also don’t like that right clicking to save takes you to a menu from which you then have to choose “save”, giving you that annoying extra click.

The renders mostly look good. They are sometimes a bit dark (I saw a setting for this in preferences, which didn’t fill me with confidence, to be honest), and sometimes they feel a bit too arty, so I felt like I wasn’t able to get a good look at some of the characters. Some of the girls look great, but again, I couldn’t see enough of them, and many of them are too inked for my tastes anyway.

Overall, I just ended up clicking or skipping forward while glossing over the dialogue as nothing sucked me in. There are about seven lewd scenes so far, but I don’t have much to say about them except that the gallery shows I think two of them to be with a trans (M to F) character. I did find the lewds I got to were a bit sudden though. They didn’t really feel natural to me, and that probably helped take me out of the game a bit as well.

No images for this one, sorry - the renders don't immediately lend themselves to it and I didn't want to spend the extra time going through and finding some that would work!

I haven't played it in 2 updates now I loved the first episode but by the end of the I had a feeling it was going to to a direction where I was gonna feel bored tbh , with all the sponsorships. so been letting it cook to try it again. I also don't like football or really any sports really.

 

[TheRealOne-]

Dang, it looks like I'm 0 for 1 on game recommendations! No worries. Growing up watching and playing American football my whole life, the game's theme resonated with me. I can see how it might not hit the same way for someone without that background, especially not knowing the ins and outs of the sport and having to look at every definition provided >.<

Even though I'm Australian, I love American Football and watch 9-10 games every week, but for some reason I could not get in to this one either. I started and played for a while and just wasn't feeling anything, I can't remember what it was that made me delete it, but I do remember that not so long ago someone told me some of the issues I had (that I now can't remember, maybe forced stuff???) had been addressed. So I do have it back on my to try list.

Yeah, it was more the story than the sports aspect though - I am generally fine even if it's not a sport that I personally enjoy. I checked out the glossary once or twice, but although it's a neat/useful feature, I generally tend to ignore it as I don't need to understand all the little things in order to enjoy the story (if it's something that doesn't initially make sense, or it comes up a lot and seems pretty important, that's when I'll usually do a quick check to see what it is).

That's pretty much it here, I wasn't feeling anything at all. Yes, perhaps the subject matter hindered me from making a connection, but there wasn't much American Football actually involved (it was just spoken about, mostly). I just had no connection to the characters, or the setup.

 

[Dessolos]

you guys making me think im gonna hate it when I replay the game lol. I recall I loved the story of the first episode but then when they got to the house and the university I wasn't feel the game as much as I was at the start. I'm also 2 updates behind haha
