  I literally just bought this for the incest. However, I mean this game throws some confusing vibes throughout the whole experience. I manged to figure out some things before I was told the answer, but I really thought I was going to get something else. This is a great new addition in the Book of Ero. Good art ,and (at least to me) a "plot" that kept me wanting to know what was going to happen next. Ai/10 would be called onii-chan again

  The release of this game seems a little...pre-mature, so to speak. The art is absolutely fantastic, nothing wrong there. My main issue stems from the main story that this game "attempts" to have. "Story in a primarily eroge focused game, what did you expect lol". I realize this, but the game offers these weird story threads that don't go anywhere or are just immediately resolved after we RAIN PURE DESTRUCTION ON IMOUTO'S HOOHAH. The bit with the box cutter originally had me intrigued, thinking this was going to be an expansion on a character's personality and an exploration of "crime by passion" or something like that. After I finished the game, I was just left wondering why that bit is even in there at all. It led to nothing, did nothing, and wasn't acknowledged again. Also, the second girl doesn't have a route and is only there to placate those who also like Yuri. Which, fair enough, but once again, the hint of a story is there and I can't help but feel as if the developers really rushed it. It looks as if there's some weird relationship between IMOUTO and the second grill, something that absolutely begs to be explored, if nothing else, just to get my rocks off, but then it just ends. It's so incredibly unsatisfying. Even when you get to the part where THAT HOOHAH EXPERIENCES PURE DESTRUCTION, there's only ONE sex scene. Just one. Only one. I recommend getting this thing on sale, I'm not even sure if it's worth the eight dollars. Maybe if it were five. Another issue is the length, which only swells the issues I've presented. Don't let my play time fool you, it says I played the game for about two hours, I only really did for about one. TLDR Just look at pretty pictures and forget the text the second you read it, there's no real intrigue other than getting blue balled for an hour and then sex starts.

  The artwork carries this relatively short story from beginning to end. As other reviewers have mentioned, the story itself predictable, and the pacing gets clunky in an attempt to build tension for the finale. There are also quite a few noticeable typos and strange grammar (probably stemming from translation?) but if you just want to turn your brain off and enjoy the pretty paintings, this will scratch that itch for about an hour and a half. If you're looking for a visual treat and little else, this will do the job. If you're looking for compelling drama, romance, or character development, this game falls short.

  If you want a plot driven visual novel with choices this isn't for you, but if you want a "plot" driven visual novel this is pretty spicy 9/10 very cunningly ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

  Where to even begin with this review... I guess first off I'll echo what others have said in that the art is really nice and the only real highlight of this title. There's no voice acting, no choice, and the music sounds like background noise stuck on a 20 second loop most of the time. So, as it stands replayability is zero. I don't necessarily think this is a "bad" VN though, just disappointing. Throughout my 80 or 90 minutes, there are clear points where you can kind of see the glimmers of an interesting story. Sadly those moments are gone the moment they appear due to scenes ending abruptly and not getting explored at all. There's also a good amount of narration that ultimately serves no purpose and is more or less filler to pad out intermissions from the ecchi scenes. The main character will have an inner monologue where he rants about nothing when Ai isn't around, so none of this serves to get players invested in him or make him appear as anything more than a passenger in the story. It seems like a lot was left on the cutting room floor with this one. The author had some good ideas, but ultimately every time the story starts to throw you a curve it course corrects bad to a very simplistic and cliche narrative in immediate order. It's very frustrating. I'm trying to avoid spoilers but the ending just abandons any of the previous events and ends with a boring "they lived happily ever after" scenario but with "we just tell people we're saving money." I don't regret purchasing this game, but I'd recommend you wait until it's more deeply discounted since you'll play it once and bury it at the bottom of your library forever. The potential is there, but sadly it doesn't deliver. Would like to see more from this author and story after they grow and gain more experience.

  The Hentai story being written by the in-game protagonist was more interesting than the story being told by the game itself. The artwork is fantastic, but I was expecting more hardcore H-scene material instead of an album 90% full of ludes and nudes. Several situations in the game make no sense at all and are dropped with extremely weak or convoluted reasons. Reaching the end was about as satisfying as a mediocre meal that looked delicious on the menu: Your expectations were far higher than reality, you're left feeling very 'meh' about it, and wishing you'd picked something different. Get it on sale if you get it at all. Not worth the full price IMO.

  The art is excellent but the plot is threadbare, offers no choices of any sort or branching story options, and has zero replay value. Character development is shallow, there are numerous typos, and the H-scenes are sparse. Worst of all, you can finish the entire sequence in about 90 minutes flat. This visual novel looks great but is a terrible value for the money. Even for sale price, I can't recommend. At full price, this is just straight up robbery.

  Even with a -35% discount, Onii-chan Asobo is hardly worth-it. Sure it has a great visual, as can be seen in the product showcase, but it is harder to judge the story right away before we click the purchase button, unless you play the game. The story direction are painfully mediocre. Sure the characters has their own personality, but their interactions are weak. With quite numerous plot holes to be left unanswered as you stare at the "the end", it leaves a bitter aftertaste. You don't even know if the story is ending. Great art and cg's nonetheless. But what is a good visual novel without a worth-it story, right?
