Synopsis
Sex Lens: Porn Story is a linear Unity base visual novel.

Story
Your name is William, you're living the perfect life. Ten years ago you moved to Los Angeles. You bought your apartment two years ago. Since then, it has been constant parties. Being the director, producer, and star of adult movies brings in the money, what guy could ask for more?

Gameplay
I classified this game as linear, there are two story lines with an obvious branch, other than that the only impact your choices have is to get the achievements.

The scenes are a clicker game, click the button to fill the bar and unlock the different segments of the scene. Once the bar is full you can switch between the different segments and select one of three camera angels. The text at the top of the screen during the scenes does not match the action. There is no visual finish to any of the scenes.

Navigation is wonky. For example, you go up the street from your house to get to the Park, but go left to exit from the Park to get back to the street. The issue is if you go right from the street you end up at the Club. I could also do without the sound when you hover over a hot spot or direction arrow. Honestly if you just popped up in the new location it would have been better. Having to move there just serves as a mini game, since it isn't open world.

There is also money, but it really serves no purpose. You always have enough money to buy what you want/need.

I don't know what happened when it came time to do Lelia's animations, the third, fourth, and fifth poses are almost identical.

When we first meet Christie she is named Kristi, and flips back and forth as the game progresses. The English is pretty bad and continually took me out of the game flow. It could use a lot of improvement, for example, "Monica usually doesn't be late…but okay." instead of "Monica isn't usually late..but okay." There is a line in the store when you buy a hand bag that isn't translated. Also the movies are referred to as paintings.

I also had issues with the saved games not displaying properly at times. I save at every choice. There are over 30 choices to make. At times not all of the save pages would be displayed, I would need to load any game and then I would be able access the save slots to see all of the saves.

The Gallery
The Gallery is accessed from the title menu. There are ten scenes to unlock.

Final Verdict
The models are beautiful, the English isn't. If you want to get this one, pick it up on sale or as part of a bundle.
