Player Comments of Horton Bay Stories:

I started playing the game being like, meh this must be one of the hundreds of other games that I might not even reach an hour of playtime in, but boy was I wrong, Its been a long time since i've found a game that hits the spot for me to this level, I cannot wait to see what comes next, the story is really nice, the characters are great funny and well executed, and the way the game handles NTR I find it to be well done, it provides options for every taste, 10/10.

Honestly, Horton Bay Stories is becoming one of my favorite finds on the site. I just caught up with the v0.6.4.1 update and the quality is just insane.The first thing that hits you is the art—the renders are super clean and the characters actually look 'alive' rather than just static models. But what keeps me hooked is the writing. It’s not just a mindless grind; the story has some real heart to it and the interactions with the girls feel genuine. Jake is a solid protagonist too, which is a nice change of pace.

The artstyle took a little getting used to but after a bit it grew on me. Might be some minor spoilers in here.As ive said in other reviews, NTR has no particular impact on me one way or the other, I do not self-insert into most of these stories so I dont really care who fucks who just how well done the scenes are, but if a story interests me enough to play to the current EoC and there is other routes I tend to try them out.On a purely "how hot is it" factor, I do love some good mind control corruption and I gotta say the mind-control aspect of the NTR route is pretty hot, especially with some of the "stronger willed" characters like Gemma. It actually was a lot hotter than the traditional NTR stuff with some of the characters like the gym bro.Personally wish Mommy dearest was available as a target for the MC in the alpha MC route, but I respect the devs choices and right to tell their own story and the scenes with the MCs arch-nemesis and her are pretty hot.Overall once you get used to the art-style its a pretty good game and worth the time.

Saw a ton of negative reviews complaining about the game and mainly the sandbox element. I don't understand why it's so upsetting to some and from their reviews I think a little patience would do them some good. I absolutely love this game and the depth that it's going for. Like most people the models put me off at first but they definitely grow on you. Really hope this game thrives.
