General Information (on Vachon’s games)
To save myself some time I’m just going to write this once and add it to all my
reviews of Vachon’s games (unless of course I find one it doesn’t apply to).
Well, My mouth got me into trouble again when I posted on one of the boards that
I would be willing to play and review all of Vachon’s games. I imagine
that I was drunk at
the time but whatever the reason, I’m here to make good on my promise so that
there is a
written review of the games for anyone contemplating playing any of them.
My suggestion if you are thinking about loading one up is don’t. However,
If you must then please realize that these games represent (by nearly unanimous
opinion) the worst that AIF has to offer. You have been warned.
I’m not really sure what Vachon’s native tongue is but suffice it to say that he
has only a passing familiarity with the English language. As a result,
just about the only responses you get that contain no spelling or grammar
mistakes are the default messages supplied by
Adrift. I’ve never before been so glad to learn that there is evidently no
need for language like that (at least it was a complete sentence).
The spelling and grammatical errors range from merely annoying to nearly
incomprehensible.
Simply using a spell check of some kind would have at least cut down on some of
these but
evidently such a thing did not exist when he was writing his games.
Playing through his games gives me a bit of a headache because it actually reads
almost like a foreign
language that I have to translate as I go along to make sense of what is
happening.
If all that is not enough to send you running the other way then please read on.
Basic Story
The object is to have sex with your three sisters.
Overall Thoughts
Wait a minute, have sex with three sisters? Didn’t I already review this
game? No, that’s right, that was a completely different game where you
have sex with your three sisters.
I don’t know what the author’s family situation is but if he has any sisters I
certainly don’t want to know about it.
Puzzles/Game Play
A couple of the standard find object/give object/fuck girl type puzzles but
that’s about it. The game is very linear and the next girl doesn’t even
show up until you have scored with
the previous one.
Sex
Once again the sex just doesn’t make much sense and is fairly boring to boot.
The author did try to give each girl a separate personality, which is refreshing
but they don’t really
seem to stay in character for the whole time. For instance, the
‘reluctant’ sister is one
minute saying that you really shouldn’t do that because you’re brother and
sister, then the next minute begging you to do more, then she goes back to
saying that you really shouldn’t do that. It’s annoying and when you add
the fact that you have to do the various sex acts in a particular order it makes
it even more so.
Technical
Technically speaking this game is actually a bit cleaner than some of his
others. Some objects can be examined and you can even look out the
windows. The girls have at least a
couple of body parts that you can examine and they all have several topics you
can ask them about.
Final Thoughts
The updated version is the one I am reviewing and if you are planning on playing
this game then that is certainly the one you should play. When compared to
the original it is almost a good game (but only when compared to the original).
If you download the zipped file then
it should come with a walkthrough and I recommend you use it. You can
definitely finish the game without it but since you have to do most of the tasks
in a particular order it will save you a lot of typing and cut down on the
number of times the game has to tell you “Not Yet.” The author gets kudos
for actually taking the time to try to improve his game but even with the
improvements there’s not much to write home about.
