Serenity Meadows v0.6

It's like someone took a slice of life anime and just... removed the part where anything interesting happens. You're Mike, or whatever you rename him, last year of high school, which in game terms means a lot of standing in hallways and a lot of text boxes about feeling anxious. The anxiety is real though, not the character's, mine, waiting for something to actually pop off. The three women at home are the whole menu, right. A step-mom type, a step-sister type, and I think an aunt? It's that classic incest stew where nobody's actually related but the game winks so hard it might sprain something. The teasing is relentless, and I mean that in the most blue balls way possible. Lots of bending over, lots of wet t-shirt moments that the 3DCG renders with a weird plastic sheen. It's all ass, by the way. The big ass tag is doing some heavy lifting, every female model looks like they were inflated with a bicycle pump from the waist down. The student life part is a joke, you click a choice to "study" or "go to party" and it just fast forwards to a static image of a room with a girl in it. No sandbox, they're very clear about that, so your big decision is basically which flavor of forbidden fruit you want to awkwardly compliment this time. I kept clicking the step-sister's dialogue options hoping for a scene that felt, I don't know, earned? Instead I got a conversation about a math test that somehow ended with a close up of her ass in pajama shorts. The logic is a fever dream. The renders are technically 3D but they have that dead eyed Poser model look, like mannequins that learned to frown slightly. One scene the milf character is supposed to be seductive and her expression is just... constipated concern. It's hilarious but I don't think on purpose. The whole thing feels like a very specific fantasy for someone who finds the idea of living with mannequins exciting. Wish there was an option to just fail school and leave, honestly. The plot is thinner than the nightgowns. You just bounce between rooms, click a girl, and hope this time the tease pays off. It usually doesn't, or when it does it's so abrupt you're like, oh, okay, that's it? Back to worrying about finals I guess.
