Moving into a big city brings many opportunities.
Resolving family issues and playing in a band isn’t easy.
Will you succeed? Find out and try to become a Rock Star.
Story
This adult visual novel delves into a compelling and refreshingly original narrative, where your aspirations of achieving rock stardom become entwined with resolving familial conflicts and navigating romantic and sexual relationships with various sexy women. Assuming the role of a young man hailing from a prosperous family, you stand out as a misfit within your lineage due to your desire to pursue a career as a rock star.
Your father comes up with an ultimatum: you can relocate to the bustling city and chase your dreams, but you must rely solely on your own resources. If you fail, you must return to the family business. Faced with what appears to be the only opportunity better than none at all, you make the leap and embark on your new journey.
In this new chapter of your life, you join forces with your friend Jacob to establish a band and actively seek out additional members. It’s during this endeavor that you encounter Lisa, a talented vocalist, and later, Jade, a skilled bass player. During your time in the city, you also find a job as a bartender in a local club – you meet Anna, the manager, and your beautiful, older boss.
It seems like all women fancy you, and you have a lot of luck finding new dates and flings. One of the girls you can be intimate with is Selina – a med student who you see from your new apartment window. It seems like Selina doesn’t mind being watched, and she also invites you to her apartment where you have sex. Later on, you also meet her mom – Rosa, a sexy ginger MILF.
Beyond the lewd and sensual encounters, the narrative also delves into moments of adversity and the quest to repair familial bonds. While some scenes carried a profound and melancholic tone, they occasionally felt devoid of a clear narrative purpose, which left me somewhat dissatisfied. Certain scenes appeared far-fetched and occasionally veered into unrealistic territory. For instance, one of the more implausible moments was when the band scored a record deal after only two performances and a few rehearsals.
Another problem of the narrative lies in the inconsistency of certain characters, who make sporadic appearances without the resolution of their story arcs – Selina? It seems as though the branching narrative and pursuit of various plot lines could benefit from greater cohesion and development.
Similarly, in certain situations, it becomes impossible for the MC finds it to end relationships. For instance, let’s consider a scenario where MC is romantically involved with Selina, Lisa, and Anna, all of whom are at the early stages of dating. However, should you as a player choose to exclusively commit to a relationship with Selina, reaching a point where it transcends dating and becomes a committed relationship, you lose the ability to end the relationships with Lisa and Anna.
Graphic
The visuals in this game got better with the development and updates. At first, I didn’t like the animations at all, they were grainy and robotic, and the characters looked different than they looked in renders. Still, they improved greatly with how the story pushed forward, meaning that the developer noticed his mistakes and put more effort into learning and making the animations better, which is something I always appreciate.
The character design resembles a punk, almost a bit goth-like style, which I liked, considering the environment and the setting of the story. There are some seriously beautiful female characters in this game, especially Julia, and Emma – your ex-girlfriend. I believe there’s a bit for everyone, and you can enjoy many lewd moments.
Gameplay
The gameplay is of a considerable length, offering many diverse choices, along with occasional musical mini-games for added variety. While the game doesn’t feature a free-roam element, I found the mechanics to be well-executed and engaging. The inclusion of a gallery, allowing players to revisit scenes, is an enjoyable touch.
The music and sound effects complement the experience nicely, creating an immersive atmosphere.
In summary, my feedback on the gameplay is that it’s solid and serviceable, albeit not particularly outstanding. My main critique lies in the narrative, as I believe that with improved storytelling, this game could elevate itself to a much higher level of quality.
Curley’s comments
Even though I enjoyed this game’s renders and characters, I would prefer they added more reasoning and revisit some of the unsolved parts of the story, like for example some relationships. Still, I believe it’s a pretty enjoyable game with a lengthy gameplay and replayability potential. Check it out.
