What's Mine Is Yours: Season 2 Review

 
Title: What's Mine Is Yours: Season 2
Release date: 2020-09-27
Developer & publisher: VitalSigns
 
Sometimes when writing a review it's a good idea to observe the developer's perspective about his creation. That gives us some insight into the creator's mindset and how they feel about their game. So, let's go and see what VitalSigns says about the continuation of of his cuckqueaning adventure:
Season 2 is probably the worst part of the series, it quickly became a case study in "what not to do" as I systemically fell into every pitfall new writers make.
Okay... Hmmm, I didn't expect that, but at least the author is self-critical. Let's see if his criticism has a basis in reality, shall we?

What's Mine Is Yours: Season 1 Review

 
Title: What's Mine Is Yours: Season 1
Release date: 2020-08-29
Developer & publisher: VitalSigns

I am hard pressed to think of another fetish as underrepresented, both among the English translated and originally English language visual novels, as cuckqueaning. Up until now I was aware of only one translated VN dealing with this subject, so I'm really glad that a developer by the name of VitalSigns is making a series of short novels specifically revolving around this fetish. Let's try the first of those novels, and see if there is anything worth reading within.

Nariyuki → Papakatsu Girls!! Mini-Review

 
Title: Nariyuki → Papakatsu Girls!!
Original title: なりゆき→パパ活GIRLS!!
Alias: LF Sugar Daddy GIRLS!!
Release date: 2017-03-01
English release date: 2018-10-01
Developer: Courreges Ace
English publisher: NTRanon (as a fan-patch)

"Nariyuki → Papakatsu Girls!!" was one of the short games translated in a bulk with a few of the other short nukiges by an anonymous user, later labeled NTRanon. Despite the alias, not all of his games deal with the NTR fetish, and "NP Girls" instead centers on slutty girls and the corruption of a (relatively) innocent high-schooler.

Mother's Lessons ~Mitsuko~ Mini-Review

 
Title: Mother's Lessons ~Mitsuko~
Release date: 2020-09-27
Developer & publisher: NTRMAN

"Mother's Lessons" is the second mother-centric netorare game I have played within the last few months, and it just might be the most wholesome NTR game in existence. Ironically, it's that very fact that makes it less interesting than it could have been.

My Mother Kyoko - NTR Fallen Review

 

Title: My Mother Kyoko - NTR Fallen
Release date: 2020-09-11
Developer & publisher: Azienda

Ain't it nice, when a visual novel proudly advertises its genre within the title itself? There is no ambiguity what the game is about, and you can safely dive inside knowing you will get exactly what it says on the tin. Just looking at the title itself, from the both dreaded and coveted three letter combination we can conjecture, that this visual novel is NTR themed, with the protagonist's mother as a central character. Let's dive deeper, in order to see if the title is any good for an original English language release.

Teaser ~ Date ~ Kanon Mini-Review

 

Title: Teaser ~ Date ~ Kanon
Release date: 2020-12-12
Developer & publisher: FullBluff Studio

"Teaser ~ Date ~ Kanon" is a short and sweet NTR themed one-shot kinetic novel. I say "one-shot", as it is literally a teaser encompassing a single date between our protagonist Hiro, and his girlfriend Kanon. The developer released it as part of their learning how to create visual novels, and the game ends ambiguously, with a "To be continued..?" message at the end. However, I have to say, I liked the game enough I hope the developer will go on with the VN making and will release a proper continuation wit the same characters.

Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony Review

 

Title: New Dangan Ronpa V3 Minna no Koroshiai Shingakki
Original title: NEWダンガンロンパV3 みんなのコロシアイ新学期
Alias: Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony
Release date: 2017-01-12
English release date: 2017-09-26
Developer: Spike Chunsoft
English publishers: Spike Chunsoft (PC)
NIS America (PS4/PSV)

Over the years, the Danganronpa series became pretty extensive, not only with video games of a few different genres, but also with anime and even novels composing the franchise. For someone not going out of their way to read up on the series, it may come as a surprise that the continuity is less clear cut than may be expected. I, for example, had no idea initially that Danganronpa 1 and 2 got capped up in the anime series Danganronpa 3, which in fact has no relation to the final game known as "Killing Harmony".
