Our Life: Beginnings & Always

A masterpiece

I am - and I cannot stress this enough - utterly and irrevocably in love with this game. Now, I might be biased, seeing as I grew up on a coastal tourist-filled town, but this game just evokes such a nostalgic feeling deep within me. It has made me reminisce quite a few things about my childhood and overall early - and not so early - life, and has given me plenty of food for thought. Now, to get a bit more into detail, I’m gonna list all of the pros and cons I can think of:

Don’t write reviews too often, but this game is an absolute masterpiece. From the cute interactions between the characters to the extreme amounts of customization, this game might aswell be perfect. (And it’s still in development!)

GENERAL GAMEPLAY:

In the game, you grow up alongside the love interest, Cove, as you gradually become older. Overtime, you form a stronger bond with Cove and can, eventually, start dating him. But this is entirely optional! You can decide to stay as friends, or even not be interested in him whatsoever. (Although, that would break my heart.)

Dream Daddy: A Dad Dating Simulator

Dream Daddy: A Dad Dating Simulator

First of all, I DID like the game. But it was, at the same time, deceiving. I’d give it a 6/10, but if it were the right price, I’d give it a 8.5/10 for sure.

Let’s start with the good things about it: it is a very enjoyable, nice and light game. Most dads are also charming, the art is great, too.

But on the other hand… routes are extremely, extremely short. Takes around 45 minutes to complete each route. Not only that, but the endings are very limited, only having 2 endings, so there’s no room for replaying it to find the rest of the endings. I remember the Official Twitter promised multiple endings per dad. You don’t get to know the characters, and most of the time, it doesn’t really feel like you’re flirting with them. I only got that impression with Damien. It’s like you guys are obviously just friends until the end of the third date where you suddenly kiss and love each other. I was really excited to do Brian’s route, but was very deceived to find that his route is just… being rivals and at the very end kissing. Nothing more. It felt empty and superficial, despite the cute shirtless moment or the final kiss and hug at Amanda’s party. Didn’t feel like a real developing relationship. I think that it wasn’t only because of how short the route is, but because of how it was written as well. You could also have a short route where it does seem like they’re flirting, like Damien’s.

Dream Daddy: A Dad Dating Simulator doesn’t really live up to what the store page tells you, nor to most of the positive reviews it received. You’re better off reading positive as well as negative reviews to get an idea of the actual content. I’m not going to say that Dream Daddy is a bad Visual Novel, it’s just not what one might expect at first.

I have mixed feelings about this game, and I can’t deny that I’m slightly disappointed. You see, it was one of those games I was really looking forward to since it claims to be a BxB dating sim. I know it probably sounds stupid, but I usually wait before I purchase a game that I really want, just to build up some more excitement, or to pass time until the game is running properly. The longer I wait, the more I’m actually anticipating the moment when I finally decide to play it. After seeing that this title is so hyped on Steam and YouTube, my expectations naturally grew to an extent where it is almost unavoidable not to feel slightly disappointed now and then. Nevertheless, after figuring out that one year after release was enough time of waiting, I finally started to play it. Alas, it didn’t turn out like I hoped it would.

Cute Bite

Cute Bite

Cute Bite is a fun raising sim where you take control of a butler (whose name you can decide, but her default is Saule) who is in charge of training the daughter of her former vampire master. The “Little Mistress” (also nameable; default is Buttercup), as Saule calls her, is far older than Saule herself, but after being confined to a coffin for centuries, she has lost many of her skills and reverted to the form of a child. It’s the player’s job to make Buttercup powerful enough within a year to complete the blood ritual which allows Saule to live.

Don’t get me wrong: I know what it looks like on the surface: an adult dating sim with rpg mechanics. But trust me, it is SO MUCH MORE THAN THAT!! Unbelievable depth in characters, worldbuilding, lore, and story, with complicated interactions and moral implications, this game stunned me with it’s intricate depth and detail, all against a backdrop of incredibly gorgeous pixel art and digital portraits!

-So, out of the way upfront: Yes, this is an adult rpg with some lgbt themes, made by a well-known lgbt adult artist. That said, it is largely not a factor in gameplay, most scenes are minimum T-rated, and the sexual content is not very explicit at all. I was actually surprised with how little sexual content was in game to proportion to how much gameplay and mechanics there was involved, and honestly the sexual content is so light and non-intrusive that it was almost never a distraction from the story or gameplay. Yes there is some light pixel nudity in some of the character models and monster skins, but much of it is de-emphasized in favor of focusing on plot and gameplay, feeling more like fan-service addons. I loved how, despite having such great art, the game creator was dedicated to creating a solid game experience over inclusion of overly-gratuitous sexual content.

Real player with 315.3 hrs in game

TL,DR: Tactical RPG that doesn’t do much hand-holding (the tutorial really could be improved), has R-rated graphics even though they’re not the focus, but can really draw you in, reward you for tinkering with the skills, and even grab your heartstrings if you read into the lore, character and world interactions you can find in the levels. Common turn-offs: Pixel art, nudity, turn-based, sexual innuendo, lots of combat, implications and mild descriptions of heinous crimes.

Combat: 8/10. Turn-based, a little predictable at times, and there are some areas you can cheese enemies, but quite solid.

Max Gentlemen Sexy Business!

Max Gentlemen Sexy Business!

TL: DR version - bought the game to support the youtube/streamer Jesse Cox for his first produced game, ended up playing it like crazy for the business management part of the game and eventually 100%-ing it.

And now, as it is customary for my reviews, the good and the bad.

The GOOD:

1. Extremely engaging gameplay - unless you are playing the game absolutely casually, you will really need to think on your feet and do all the necessary calculations in your head in advance if you want to min-max properly.

I went into this game completely blind. I have not played the previous game in this series by the ominously titled developers The Men Who Wear Many Hats. After playing Max Gentleman: Sexy Business, I might have to go check out the original Max Gentleman game. It is free. What do I have to lose? Regardless, I have a lot of time invested in this game and learning its systems, so I feel that I can provide an honest opinion about this game.

Max Gentleman: Sexy Business is an idle/strategy game with elements of visual novels and dating simulators. The game starts with you creating your own “gentsona” which you will use to take back back your stolen family riches by forming a business, fighting against rival business, improving your executives, and paying off loans in order to defeat the vile and slimy Cashious Villionaire. The plot to the game is easy to follow and there is plenty of comical dialogue to read that helps to pull you into the world and characters. At the same time, reading the dialogue is not essential to playing and beating the game, so dialogue can be skipped for the least astute. However, I recommend that you do not skip the dialogue because it is cleverly written, hilarious, and… surprisingly steamy. The game is called SEXY Business after all. Along with managing your executives and running a business suitable for crushing your rivals, you also will be given opportunities to go on dates with executives to get to know them better and to unlock outfits for them, ranging from comical cosplay to complete full-frontal nudity. Moving forward, this review will be divided into two sections; SEXY and BUSINESS.

I’ve finished most routes in the game and I’ll just list some pros and cons since other reviewers articulate it better

–——————————-

Pros:

-Bouquet and Card minigames were enjoyable (I was neutral to the quiz one)

-Felix & Nova being cuties

-Funny dialogue options

-Quick gameplay, you don’t have to devote a ton of time to each route

-Art and character illustrations are very pretty & pleasant to look at!

-You can toggle individual minigames on and off in the settings (goodbye grill lmaooo)

So, I saw the title of this game, read the concept and decided this is my dream game. Easy to say; I was wrong. For about fifteen hours I did my best to love this game, did ever rout and explored every possible outcome (yes I have it 100%) and I am sad to say….. I liked it in places, which makes it worse. The Felix, clone and evil queen routs were, though lacking, enjoyable enough but not only was Novas rout 60% virtue signalling, but most of the game is also afraid to be truly, well, evil. Before someone notes in their mind though, I have about 65% the same views and opinions as the game so it is not what message it speaks of just how and in what type of property it speaks it in. Nova, I am here to date you not to hear your views of the American health care system: I am not even American, I don’t care.

Flirt

Flirt

My life changed approximately six hours ago.

I married my high school sweetheart three and a half years ago. I thought she was the one. I thought. Until she started throwing little quips at me just to get on my nerves. Stuff like, “You never do the laundry!” and “why do you smell so bad?” I hated it. I hated my life. How did I manage to get stuck with this woman? What did I do wrong?

Then it happened.

Flirt was released. My world was rocked.

I met the love of my life here, thirty-seven minutes and eighteen seconds ago. She never complains about me smelling bad. She never says my clothes are dirty.

Flirt is a good of communication and making new friends to hang out with online or offline. Flirt was created to simulate a dating world that’s not Tinder or any other dating sites or services. I loved Comedy Night since the day I bought it in 2017 and this is now another one of my favourite games by Lighthouse Studios now too! Sure this game was not advertised nor released properly but it’s not the worse outcome. I played for a few hours of release and can say it was good outcome so far. The player base needs improvement and better stuff added such as emotes and perks for the hearts. Overall it has potential just needs some work. Good Job Lighthouse Studios!!
