What could be better than a reunion in a beautiful cabin in the woods?
Even though you were supposed to only drive the girls to the location, you stay there because of a car malfunction.
You will soon realize that there is something strange about the whole reunion, and you are suddenly pulled into a story full of dark secrets.
Story
Four former best friends and members of a cheerleading squad, Lexi, Maxine, Ariana, and Lydia, decide to have a reunion at Maxine’s cabin in the woods. After high school was over, every single one of them set out on a different path. However, a lot has changed since their last encounter.
Maxine is on the journey to become a renowned politician, Ariana is having some self-esteem problems and is anxious about the whole reunion thing, Lexi finds it hard to cope with the lack of popularity she used to have back in high school, so she avoids having to face reality by drinking her problems away, and Lydia, well, although she looks the most unfriendly of all 4 girls, is actually timid and reserved, so each and every one of them has a different kind of backstory.
The first episode is quite long, and it could substitute for watching a movie on a Friday night. It gives you about three hours of good gameplay with a lot of twists and turns, so prepare to be entertained. I really like how the story was written. The dialogue is witty and humorous, and I would say that it is quite realistic. Even after a couple of minutes of playing, you can see some patterns in the characters’ speech and sentences, which makes the overall story quality very consistent.
For example, Lexi is kind of ditzy and a little bit soft-headed, which makes the situations in the game even funnier than they actually are. Maxine is more serious, and she seems like the leader of the whole group, although her friends sometimes dislike that. Meanwhile, Ariana and Lydia appear to be more timid and quiet, but all of this changes once you get to the dirty secret the group is keeping. At the beginning of the game, you get to choose the relationship you have with Ariana. You can write that she is your girlfriend or neighbor, which would fit into the story, but you can even choose something naughty, like sister or step-sister, which would then make the whole story even more twisted.
I am saying that because you play as the MC, who is the only guy with these four hot girls in the cabin. All kinds of things happen along the way, and you have many opportunities with them. So, no one is stopping you if you want to make this story a bit more perverted, if you know what I mean.
I’ve already mentioned that you get all kinds of opportunities. This covers pretty much everything from your classic creeping on the girl while she’s changing or showering to actual sex scenes, flirting, foreplay, and everything in between.
Now, to see what actually happens in the game, you will have to play it, because I don’t want to reveal everything and spoil all the fun. However, I will try to briefly explain what you can expect.
The first plot twist that happens is that you, as the MC, who wasn’t really supposed to be there for the whole stay, end up trapped in this cabin alongside the girls because you realize someone has messed with your car. To make things worse, there is no signal in the cabin, as it is located far away from the city and any kind of neighborhood. First, you think that this is a good opportunity to just relax and have fun; to take some time off from work and other daily tasks you have, but you soon find out that your car malfunction isn’t exactly a weird coincidence.
Sometime during your stay, one of the girls reveals what happened five years ago with Lexi’s boyfriend in that exact cabin. You knew about Lucas’ disappearance and that he and Lexi have had some problems, but you begin to suspect there was something more than just that when Lexi casually admits that he had wished to kill him at the time. Here, a major shitshow starts to happen. You are suddenly not sure who to trust and even begin questioning your own sanity.
You realize that the girls are nothing but trouble, and things go from bad to worse when people start disappearing. You also find out that Maxine’s political position is actually only her side job.
If you want to find out which dirty secrets the group keeps and air their dirty laundry, make sure to play this compelling and twisted game by Inceton.
Graphic
This game is animated and has beautiful scenery and characters. I was impressed by the high-quality renders and the overall visual appearance of the game. The girls you meet are really sexy and beautiful, each one in her own way. Pretty much all scenes happen in a beautiful cabin somewhere in the forest. I really like how they paid even the smallest attention to detail and added some cool transitions and animations.
Gameplay
This is a really high-quality game overall. If you’ve already played some games from Inceton, you are already familiar with the way each game starts. At the beginning, you get to choose your name and the relationships you have with other characters. This gives you a lot of freedom to be creative and influence the game, giving it a somewhat personal touch. Here, you can write pretty much anything, although the only girl you get to do that with is Ariana. The game isn’t voiced, and you have background music and sound effects.
Curley’s comments
Shackbang is a high-quality, DAZ3D animated game. You get choices—a lot of beautiful characters and settings. You get more than 5000 renders in this very first episode, and it is thrilling enough to keep your eyes glued to the screen, both because of the hot girls and lewd scenes and because of the mindfuck story that will make you question every single character.
Some tags are: drugs, exhibitionism, graphic violence, groping, handjobs, incest, lesbian, male protagonist, masturbation, oral sex, pov, rape, sexual harassment, spanking, stripping, teasing, and vaginal sex. Just a quick reminder because of the incest tag: the tag can be fulfilled if you choose to label Ariana as your sister, or any other family member of your choice. There will be no NTR.
I really recommend you play this game and check out other ones from Inceton. I promise you won’t be disappointed.
