UncleOffice:uncle Dating Simulator

I'm giving the game a thumbs up because I really want to support the dev and look forward to his future games and (possible?) future updates to this one, but this game is a mixed bag. So to start, this game added some progression mechanics that uncle neighbor didn't have. It adds a grind for affection that you need to raise for each character to unlock their personal storylines. Let's just say, I probably would not have been able to play this game if there wasn't a story mode that removed it, because it was so tedious and boring that I had to quit like 3 hours in. Getting around the different rooms and the map is really annoying too, and takes forever. The stories themselves are definitely shorter than Uncle Neighbor's stories. Even though there's technically more scenes as well as some extra mini stories, they're very short and the story goes by super fast. I suspect this might not be noticeable if you play the game in it's regular mode (which I don't recommend, it's really not fun and you're not missing out on anything), but playing through it in story mode really shows just how much less content this game has than Uncle Neighbor. The progression from chapter to chapter is also very weird and disconnected. In Uncle Neighbor, you could tell how much time had passed by and the beginning chapters were all happening through a couple of days. In this game it feels like you jump through plot points at random speed. I played fully through Chris' story so far and it didn't feel like a natural progression from strangers to lovers like in UN. You start as strangers in the first chapter and then really quickly seem to just start dating and things kinda go from 0 to 100. It doesn't feel satisfying or meaningful. It also doesn't help that we don't have a NSFW scene that kinda "marks the beginning" of the relationship like Neighbor had. Another disappointing thing is the lack of world building or interaction between characters. Unlike the first game, this game's stories are all extremely isolated from each other. As far as I have played, love interests don't interact with each other much, if at all, and don't really seem know each other at all. Uncle Neighbor had a cool overarching narrative between all of the characters you met where you could see different possibilities in how the town's inhabitants progress as you date the different uncles. There's also no minigames, which in Uncle Neighbor were usually pretty fun with a couple of exceptions. The only "gameplay" you have is the choices which do absolutely nothing in story mode since you don't need affection points (I don't even think they even affect anything in the story) and the "jobs" that you can do in the RPG mode, which is just clicking a button and watching the timer go up. That's it. Pretty big step down. The characters themselves are all way too similar. Uncle Neighbor had this problem too where most of the characters were just muscular white men with slight variations. This game has the exact same problem except that instead of white they're mixed (latino?) with a few variations but not much. Adam, Charlie, Chris, Daniel, and David look like identical siblings. I'm not even kidding, when I was trying out the rpg mode and I was looking for someone in the map through their tiny pictures I kept getting them mixed up because they're so similar. So in a way the character variety is actually worse than Uncle Neighbor.... seriously they look the same! Now for the good: the illustrations are definitely improved. The backgrounds are far more interesting and detailed than the first game which had pretty simplistic backgrounds. You can tell a lot more work was put into them. A shame that there's so little scenes of the uncles and no NSFW scenes, but oh well. The translation is also vastly improved and so far I haven't found any untranslated lines (which still haven't been fully fixed in Uncle Neighbor BTW). There's also a big issue where dialogue lines don't show the correct character when they're speaking. It shows "Chris" when it's actually the main character speaking and vice versa. This got me super confused a couple of times. Overall, I think this is a big step down from Uncle Neighbor. I believe the dev focused too much and developing the "RPG" part of the game and didn't devote as much time to the actual stories and the characters. I really wish he would have just stuck with the Uncle Neighbor formula which worked so well and just worked on the illustrations and the writing. It's a shame because I love this dev and Neighbor was such a good visual novel. Looking forward to future updates and future entries :)

An Uncle adventure. This game is the same creator Game Uncle's predecesor UncleNeighbor following the same visual novel structure with more features. Now you can travel to different places as caffees, offices, houses, clubs... to meet and date other Uncles. In Total there're 12 uncles to date. Develop relationship giving some gifts and dating them. And a whole new Character creation with clothing system that influences the affection you recieve from Uncles you date. Try to fit well with the ocasion and them likings. I'm a huge fan of the Uncle Series and Game Uncle never fails to deliever amazing stories.

I really loved his previous game Uncle Neighbour (and if you've not played that, I suggest you start there). This game has different mechanics; rather than separate chapters for each datable man, in this game they are all available to be pursued concurrently (without ever being penalised or locked out of anything) with a calendar and map system. As with the previous game, the background music and scenery artwork does a great job of setting the scene. Also, as before, the CGs for all of the men are really beautifully drawn, and there are so many CGs. Unlike the last game, there are no nsfw CGs here, but even without that, these CGs are still hot!! Each of the men has a unique and interesting story to follow. The game is very enjoyable to play!

Gran Juego, muy buenas historias. Excelentes diseño de personajes.

觀望中

文本bug很多，但不算特别影响观感，探索模式感觉没啥用（我个人可能更喜欢故事），但是，让我写下这篇测评的，是当我游玩到David线时，我不知道是不是文本bug还是本来故事就这样的，给我的三观给予了一点小小的暴击，主角接受了酒吧老板推荐的特殊按摩，感觉还不错？然后David用讨好客人的特殊服务讨好主角？我是David和酒吧play的一环吗？从这个游戏出来就抱有不小的期待，前作邻居大叔的每条线也没出现过这种情况（农场主和他的炮友最后也没邀请主角和他们一起吧）私以为可以稍微优化一下，比如主角体验特殊服务说明白不是做爱，要么就删掉…最后就是脚的特写是不是有点太多了（不影响故事就无所谓）

使用中文語言沒辦法開啓游戲， 反之用英文就沒事，可是就沒辦法太享受這個游戲， 加上也沒有uncle neighbour 有想要的畫面。。真失望， 期待了那麽久。。。

今天更新了之后，很多bug已经修复了，并且增加了额外的CG，但目前仍然存在两个bug，其一是Mona的倒是第二个任务一直找不到星星，另外一个是赚钱的成就一直没法解锁，以及非常期待作者后续的内容，游戏里的特殊道具（比如Beson的内裤之类的）希望后续可以推出交互的内容。

NO NSFW

[Discussão] Desabafo de um fã: Onde UncleOffice errou em relação ao seu antecessor? Fala, pessoal. Queria abrir essa discussão aqui para saber se mais alguém compartilha do mesmo sentimento que eu em relação a UncleOffice: Uncle Dating Simulator. Sou um fã enorme do primeiro jogo, UncleNeighbor, tenho um carinho gigantesco por ele e pelo trabalho do desenvolvedor. Justamente por isso, ver o estado atual de UncleOffice tem me deixado bastante desanimado. Sinto que o projeto esfriou e, sinceramente, a minha expectativa virou tédio. Queria pontuar os três motivos que me fizeram, infelizmente, deixar o jogo de lado: 1. O Silêncio Total sobre as Legendas (PT-BR) Para uma visual novel, a imersão na nossa própria língua faz toda a diferença. Até o momento, não tivemos nenhuma divulgação ou atualização sobre traduções adicionais. Sei que localizar um jogo pesado em texto não é fácil, mas a comunidade brasileira é gigante e super engajada. Tenho certeza de que muitos fãs se disponibilizariam a ajudar na tradução de forma voluntária se o desenvolvedor abrisse essa porta. Essa falta de respostas deixa o jogo distante. 2. O Conteúdo NSFW Fora do Jogo Destruiu o Sentso de Conquista Para mim, esse foi o erro mais crucial. Em simuladores de namoro, as artes NSFW não são apenas bônus; elas são a recompensa do gameplay. É o prêmio por você explorar rotas, tomar decisões difíceis e investir tempo nos personagens. Quando o desenvolvedor decidiu tirar essas artes de dentro do jogo e disponibilizá-las de graça em um pacote de imagens no X (Twitter), a magia sumiu. Perdeu-se aquela ânsia de jogar para desbloquear os álbuns. Ficou sem graça e sem propósito. 3. Mais Complexidade, Menos Coração (Ambição vs. Retrocesso) Dá para ver que UncleOffice é um projeto muito ambicioso. O desenvolvedor cresceu, trouxe mecânicas mais complexas, um mapa mais rico e opções mais bem construídas. Porém, no meio de tanta novidade, sinto que houve um retrocesso na essência que fazia o primeiro jogo ser tão envolvente. Mais complexidade nem sempre significa um jogo melhor, e a execução acabou parecendo morna. Conclusão: Infelizmente, o ritmo lento das grandes atualizações e essas decisões de design me fizeram desistir de esperar — inclusive pela legenda. UncleOffice acabou caindo no meu esquecimento. Mais alguém aqui que amava UncleNeighbor terminou com essa mesma visão cinzenta sobre a sequência, ou vocês acham que o jogo ainda tem salvação? Vamos conversar!
