Unity - Completed - The Twist [v1.0-0.52.1 Cracked] [KsT]

I'm finding this to be a great game,

Pro's:

• Lots of content/scenes and scenario's. Diverse storylines.
• Neat mechanics like: time of day, earning money, leveling up your stamina, surfing/shopping on computer, lots of items, a few minigames here and there, relationship levels, dressing up, lots of different choices in scenes.

Cons:

• Can feel a bit grindy at times but much of it can be avoided through a cheat panel. there is also a very detailed walk-through to help you with progression.
• No sound

Graphics note:
This game is full 3D. I'd suggest playing this full screen on high resolution. Tweak the graphics further through your videocard control panel as these settings are not available in game, enable features like anti aliasing and anisotropic filtering. It will make the game look much better. The tiny screenshots are not doing this game justice in my opinion.

I've been watching this game for a long time.

First thing that you mast know, here tons content for Fap. Many girls, many situations, many different sex scenes. Here you find all that we looking in porn games. So on this moment this one of the biggest game.

Then why only 4 stars? Because a tons of problems.
This game unplayable without walkthrough. You spend a lot of time just for skip time or trying to catch trigger. My save file told me that I spent around game 900 days. Some scenes you can see only one time, because no replay menu in game (with ton of scenes this is important). And I guess the developer will never fix that.

But you must definitely try this game!

The fact that this is getting 4-5 stars is bewildering, especially when most of those reviews point out huge problems in the games design.
The positives: The ability to control the camera during sex scenes is a fantastic way to have players feel more involved, the animations are also done well so there is that as well. I'm sorry I don't have anymore.
The Negatives: This is mentioned in every review and one of the huge flaws of the game. You need a fucking ESSAY to play this. The journal log is devoid of any information on how to help you and you have to do things on certain days, certain times and with certain people before you can do the next thing. Walkthroughs should always be optional in games. I don't need it but I wanna see how to get this path, that is not an option here, you need the fucking Walk through.
The grind is absolutely horrendous in this game. It makes you repeat the same event way too many times. The grind actually ruins scenes for me. Instead of finding the mother daughter first lesbian scene hot, I was just pissed that my mc had to fucking grind his balls just for a fucking blow job and all the sister had to do was say she's jealous and she gets the main course. DA FUCK.
The story - you were adopted. The End. Also no option to beat Phil's ass, have to be friends with him.
The models - people saying the models look good have me concerned on their eyesight, the models are nice bodies but the faces my god are horrifying. Compared to other games, it's like these models are orcs from Mordor.

Seriously, really disappointed in this game.

Also fuck this dev with putting fucking saves behind a paywall. Only reason VNs and porn games are becoming big is because of pirate cites, which like F95 are trustworthy to the consumer.

This game has a ton of content, but it is buried under a clunky slow responding interface and incredibly convoluted progression that can only be described as "un-fun".

The models, concept, and use of 3D environment for scenes are all good, but the game is absolutely terrible to play. The walkthrough is essential, and having to slowly spam "wait" for the next relevant time-of-day trigger makes progression feel like a chore. The 3D environments take longer to load, so basic tasks like navigating the map feels very slow, and dialogue isn't very responsive.

Some of the scenes are still good, if you can stomach the grind go for it. It's just a shame the developer couldn't have put them in a fun game.

Reviews have not been easy for me. The rules are not very user friendly.
So using the suggestions given in the rules: Story, Originality (not really any to speak of.), Renders (The artworks reminded me of old PS2 games.), Sound (I mute so not idea.), Playability (Very bad. I had to adjust my mouse speed way down so it would stop spinning me 360 degrees with a touch.), Performance(Had to close down many of the normal background apps I run. This game eats resources), Bugs (I found no bugs.), Animations (Thumbs down), Voice Acting (again I mute), Grammar (Better than most), Amount of content (very little.)

This is definitely one of the praiseworthy games. There are practically no similar or similar projects.
But it is developing very slowly, a lot of fetishes, from interesting to unpleasant (for an amateur). I hope the story in future updates will move faster, since the current situation is very similar to stagnation.

The good: One of the best games on the website I like the smooth animations, it's not 3 frames that repeat each other like some other games, and there are many and I mean many different positions per scene, I can't think of any game that does it better. There was also some form of decision-making in the game you could treat the women rough and soft during sex, another very good thing most games don't do, or don't do well, this one does allthough it seems like the developer kinda stopped giving these options which is a shame. Girls look good story is believeable and the typical good stuff is all there.

The bad: Notepad walkthrough? Are you serious bro? 1000+ steps and I can't just focus on one girl I have to do steps for other girls to progress with the girls I like? And 1000s of them? So yeah I've been wanting to replay this game for months now but I just can't get over that gigantic hill of having to do everything over again but I also don't wanna miss out on content that I didn't see during the few updates I skipped (so taking other peoples saves isnt an option either and it's also just weird).

I think the developer should really consider starting off fresh and ending The Twist. Call it The Twist 2 for all I care but stop piling onto this giant mountain of old content that I have to work my way through before I reach some new stuff. Or make it easier to reach the new or semi-new stuff.

Edit: It's kinda cringe that someone wants to shit on me for giving one of the best games on the website 5 stars despite me recognizing it's flaws but he himself gives it a 1 star? This game is really 1 star to you? You're a hater my dude and you have no right to complain about anyone rating games because you just gave the best game a 1-star "because it's grindy" meanwhile I bet you gve some shitty VNs that aren't even games 5-stars.

I dont know about you, but for me personally, I felt like i was playing a game that came out before GTA:SA.And since i'm turned off by the looks, I cant say much else about other content and its buggy.

Nice game, one of the best around right now with hot milf & young models.

EDIT @2022:

Still this is one of the best games in f95zone, seen lot of games in past year, none of the games come to this level, the 3d animations, 360 view, lovable characters, decent story, Good going dev.

PS :

1. You need dedicated GFX Card to play the game smooth.


2. If you are playing in a multimonitor PC, you have to choose the monitor thats connected to GFX Card output as Main Display ( Right click desktop -> display settings -> highlight monitor connected to gfx card -> scroll to bottom -> Make this my main display or game will not use the dedicated gfx. ).


3. If anyone having issue with GPU hitting 90%-100% & going over 70C leading to hang or crash. just limit the fps to 30 in options ( its in same location of load save ).

1080p @30FPS High . now my gpu rarely hitting 90% and stays around 60C.

unnecessary paywall to save/load...terrible way to attempt to get more patreons. if youre not making the amount of money you would like to as a content creator then maybe you should create more content. if people like youre content they will support you in order to continue creating content.

excelent game! one of the best games ever, good history, great design of models, really kinky and hot scenes, just hoping if there's gonna be more Danielle and Michelle content, maybe Rachel too, is like a Sex version of the sims.

Implemented paywall so you cannot save or load games. Retracting my support of the game and all interest in ever supporting him again. Game simply isnt good enough to warrant a paywall anywhere. Its grindy, and buggy as hell.

Possibly one of the best porn games, and has loads of content to boot! Highly recommended you give yourself a few days off to play it through. Has many great characters and all of them have various events to do. Walkthrough is a must!

Update at V0.49, moving from 5 stars to 3 stars. The things that made this game good are still there, but the things that held it back have become too big to ignore. An out-of-game walkthrough is now necessary to do anything. The game has bugs that, once encountered, don't seem to be able to be fixed by using a different save game or fresh install. The dialog quality has become poor broken english. It's a shame, but I'm taking this off my 5 star list.

‘The Twist’ is a real-time 3D relationship building game that starts extremely promisingly and steadily devolves into an incoherent, frustrating mess.


The Good
Content, content, content.

The story has a fairly run of the mill introduction for this genre. An absent/uncaring father figure leaves a young, horny guy, alone with a frustrated mother and a sister discovering her own sexuality. The player steps in to fill the void while discovering other playmates along the way.

Where ‘The Twist’ shines in this regard is its absolute unwillingness to leave players blue-balled with dead end sexual pursuits. If you see a woman in the game, there’s a better than average chance that spending time building your relationship with her will prove fruitful.


Fantasy Island.

‘The Twist’ addresses many different neighborhood fantasies, especially for fans of netori, a sub-genre of NTR that sees the player assuming the role of partner-thief. Mother/Sister/Aunt fantasy? Check. Married teacher? Check. Best friend’s mom? Lonely widow? Bored store clerk? Check, check and check.
---
The Okay
Graphics.

‘The Twist’ is not an overwhelmingly pretty game. Some adjustment is required to get used to the uniquely styled models. The fully 3D and real-time scenes and environment make up for this shortcoming quite nicely. As does the fact that every sexual encounter is animated.
---
The Less Than Okay
Aimlessness.

‘The Twist’ starts off with objectives that, while requiring some maneuvering, have clear paths rooted in common sense decisions. These are supported by a journal function that’s nicely out of the way until you absolutely need it. The train of thought was simple: Players are tasked with something, players fulfill that task, players are rewarded with advancement in their relationship with whichever woman or quest they’re pursuing at the time.

And then, for no reason at all, that simply ceases to be the case. Which part? All of it.

Paths quickly become obscured by an increasingly random relationship point system. Tasks lead to other tasks that are locked behind characters players have yet to meet. And these characters have unlock requirements that can be downright impossible to meet reliably without having to check out a walkthrough. To add to this frustration, journal tips become ever more vague or scarce, exactly at the times that you need them to be a constant. With the game still so early in development, however, I expect the majority of these issues to be ironed out eventually.


Time Sinks & Continuity

The issues with aimlessness lead to what, in my opinion, are the worst parts of this game in its current incarnation.

Almost as if by design in order to bloat time played, the chain of tasks become ever more bogged down with objectives that require you to wait several days to full weeks. Because of the point system and how it limits advancement, players can find themselves running into a situation where they’ve maxed multiple opportunities concurrently and feel they have no choice but to simply skip days, hoping that the game’s semi-random encounter system will finally see fit to put them in the right place at the right time.

Finally, let’s talk about that semi-random encounter system. For the first few characters that the player meets, the relationship tracker usefully shows their exact locations if they are located anywhere on the map. For the ones introduced later on, however, this is not the case. Why? Because scenes are rolled from a selection of probabilities in certain locations. This is sometimes influenced by the point system and due to this, on a couple of occasions, I have run into situations where dialogue references events that I have not experienced or characters that I have not met. No huge spoilers, as this game is fairly transparent with its intent most of the time, but obnoxious nonetheless.
---

In all, ‘The Twist’ remains one of the best games of its genre in development, despite some issues that will hopefully be ironed out as development continues. It is a must-follow for fans of what I call ‘soft’ netori, the sort that isn’t defined by hostility and sexual violence.

Very good game, with good graphics, many characters and quite entertaining, deserving of outstanding but out of things like the difference he asks to buy compared to what you win or the scenes in which only the probability enters so that you get one or the other

Tons of content. Well realized story and characters.

Animation and world looks a bit dated but has its own charm and style. Right amount of immature primary and secondary characters that come across in the writing.

Good on the dev(s) to include cheats in the game.

Especially considering the amount of grind. This is the unfortunate part of the game. Looking at the amount of content, dev(s) should consider removing the grind including rng and day limits.

Review for version 0.33 of the game

We have a good one here.
This game is one of the whales.

It's massive. It has a ton of content. If you only play for an hour or two every other day, it can literally take you weeks to complete.

The story is nothing spectacular, but it's fine. You're a strapping young lad, and as it tends to be with these games, you slowing start to gain the favors of the many women around you, until you get to have sex with them all.

The graphics, well, you won't find any pre-rendered animations in this game. This is all live 3D. As such, obviously, the animations aren't as "good" as in other games. However, you get to play director, move around the room as the sex scenes play out, look at it from whatever angle you wish.

Speaking of sex scenes; They are probably this game's strongest part. There's a ton of variety in positions, a lot of different fetishes, many girls with different body types. It's amazing.

Now, in terms of grind.. Is it grindy? Kinda, but not very.
You do have to repeat scenes a couple of times to increase scores, BUT, once you've repeated a scene a couple of times, and reached the maximum score that this particular scene allows you to raise, in most cases, you won't ever have to do that scene again. Or at least not in the same form. For each "bracket" of points, if you will, the game will present you with new paths, new scenes, and new stories. It's really well done.

I am comfortable in saying that in most aspects, this game is one of the best games we have. Like, literally top 5 material.


Unfortunately, however, there is one MASSIVE problem with the game, which is what lead me to give it a 3-star rating despite all the positive statements I made above:

The RNG of getting a scene to trigger, that is needed to continue the game's story.

You won't really feel this for the first 10-20 versions of the game. But as you progress through the game, the specific trigger points start to get more and more packed with potential outcomes. It gets worse and worse.
It comes to a point, where you end up going through WEEKS AND WEEKS AND WEEKS AND WEEKS of ingame time before you FINALLY manage to get the scene triggered that you needed. It is immensely frustrating.

Combine this with the fact that skipping through ingame time / days is a very slow, and annoying process. (get rid of those long black screens, get rid of the delayed text popups, get rid of the extra-slow transitions between screens. there is no need for them whatsoever)

If the dev finds a way to solve this problem, i.e. by giving us some way to control the outcomes or contain the enormous levels of RNG, this game could become TRULY FANTASTIC.
Until then, I can only recommend this game to you if you feel that you are a very patient person.

Some good content hidden inside the shit performance(and graphics).
Gives you a little bit of "freedom" with the renders and gameplay, but you pay a high price with you Disk at 100%, CPU and GPU fans going crazy, even a mining virus would not do that.
It has some good content (And tose are the only Good thing in this game), but for the good of you PC stay AWAY from this game.

The Twist (v0.32 final)

This game is good. the graphism arent extraordinary (but maybe its just because mty pc is bad and well.. cant run perfectly)
the characters are good, the differents places to visit are all pretty nice.
moving around is a bit hard at beginning, but once you got it, its fast and easy.

i did not give it 5 stars because its not perfectly optimised for me. i know my pc is shit, but the game is still a bit laggy sometime and eat tons of my CPU/GPU for some reasons.
the story is .. well.. okay i guess, its kind of classic story we see in lots of different games.

all in all, its a nice game, a full 3D game with lots of work in it. deserve a try and keep an eye on it. its constantly updated (even if sometime , the udpating system is a bit confusing due to the "final" used instead of "public/bug fixed" .)

a sweet game.
