Description
The game centers around you, a heartbroken man with a background in cryptocurrency trading, telling the story of how you met a girl named Megan during a life-changing day. Megan is a young aspiring actress down on her luck and in desperate need of help. Will you be there for her when she needs it the most and help her turn the tide? Will you be able to win her heart?

Acting Lessons is a drama-filled adult Visual Novel (VN) with many different endings.
The choices you make in this game, even early on, will permeate throughout the game and affect the people around you and your adventure.
The game is centered around the relationship between Jonas (or your name of choice for the main character) and Megan, but there are multiple women in the cast that you can pursue.

Will you be there for Megan and stay faithful to her or will you fall in love with her childhood friend Melissa?
Perhaps you find someone else more intriguing, for instance, the nurturing nurse Leah or the blue-haired actress Rena?
Will you value the friendship with your best friend Liam and be there when he truly needs you?
These choices, and a lot more, are all yours to make.

Expect a 5 - 8 hour long humor-filled and emotion-packed Adult Visual Novel that many players only could find the strength to play once.

The complete game contains:
  • More than 5000 images
  • 217 animations
  • 61 songs



This game includes sex, drugs and violence. Even if the general tone is happy, the game does depict darker topics of real life.
The story is not intended for players being in a dark period of their lives. If you are easily offended or just looking for a fun game only, this game is not for you.

A Heck of A Ride

I had heard that Acting Lessons could be a darker visual novel and luckily it lived up to it’s reputation. I had some feelings during it that some bad things were coming my way but I didn’t see the twist come near the end and was taken by surprise. It has some great characters worth caring about and a decent story. You get to make a pretty great selection of choices. My one issue with that was that part of the story revolves around picking between two friends who you want to be with but to be fair I was never interested in one of them and have to listen to her get angry with me over stringing her along but the game never gave me an option to date the other one. Overall though there is drama; love; sex; friendship; murder and more. I played Acting Lessons on Linux. It never crashed on me and I didn’t notice any spelling errors. The game uses version 6.99.14.3.3147 of the Ren’Py engine. It uses the OpenGL API. I played version 1.02 of the game. It uses up 3534 MB of disk space. It allows for manual saving any time and has 54 save slots. Alt-tab works just fine. The game does open on the wrong monitor but that’s a known bug with the Ren’Py engine not the game. During game play my GPU usage was 0-13%; my VRAM usage was 582-907 MB; my CPU usage was 1-5% and my RAM usage was 2.6-4.7GB. If you enjoy games like Being a Dik or Depraved Awakening this has a lot to offer. I paid $11.49 CAD for it and finished my first play through in 4 hours 40 minutes. That is great value, I’d say the game is even worth $20. Dr Pink Cake continues to impress me with their visual novels. My Score: 9.5/10 My System: AMD Ryzen 5 2600X | 16GB DDR4-3000 CL15 | MSI RX 5700 XT 8GB Gaming X | Mesa 20.0.4 | Samsung 970 Evo Plus 500GB | Manjaro 19.0.2 | Mate 1.24 | Kernel 5.6.3-2-MANJARO

Is more than you think it is.

I played this game as I heard it had a good story, it was cheap and I was bored. I didn't care about anything to do with the sexual side of it. Sex doesn't bother me, I don't care if games have it or not. What blew me away with this was the quality of the writing, the way it draws you into the characters to the point, like a good book, you genuinely care what happens to them. The creator might use assets bought elsewhere, but they have real talent when it comes to creating characters and telling an engaging story that affects you on an emotional level.

Better than I expected

I'm not a huge fan of the visual novel genre, but this one got some pretty decent reviews so I decided to give it a shot. Overall, I'm fairly impressed with what I believe is Dr Pink Cake's first game, although it does have a few very rough edges. Consider this more of a 3.5 star, rounded up. Pros +The story is interesting and kept me guessing until the end. +It's genuinely funny at times. Most games barely manage to get a chuckle out of me but I actually laughed at several scenes in this game. +Liam. Probably one of the best sidekicks in video game history. +Choices that matter....somewhat (more on that in a bit). +The music isn't bad. Nothing that you'll recognize from the radio, but it gets the job done. Cons -The characters can be really shallow and one dimensional. There's not a lot of growth that happens during the story. -While some choices matter, the ultimate ending is pretty set in stone. Basically, choose A, B, or C. -There's no voice acting. I'm not expecting Mark Hamill or Jennifer Hale, but they could have hired a few local actors to add some life to the characters. The game is called "Acting Lessons" but they didn't seem to take their own advice. -The porn is pretty bad. This game features very poorly animated models getting it on in 3 second loops. All of the sex scenes vary between "so bad it's almost funny" to "struggling for mediocrity". There's clipping issues, texture stretching, inadequate model rigging; and that's just on a technical level. The dialog in these scenes is on par with some of the cheesiest porn I've ever watched. I think that it needed a lot more effort put in if it's to be included. What we got is just lazy, incompetent, or both. Overall, I think that it's worth it for the story but it's not going to change someone's mind if they don't like the visual novel genre. The characters are fun even if a bit cookie cutter and the writing is decent for the most part. If you're looking for porn, just go to pornhub.

A great story!

The models, music and story are all great! The story is evocative and emotional. The only downside to this game is that the animated sequences are very janky. Buy this for the story and you won't regret it! Buy it for wank material and you might regret it.

A Great Story

I'll be honest, I bought this 'cause I wanted to get a quick fap, instead I got a game with a good story and characters that I didn't think would intrigue me and entice me to complete the game. A great emotional and funny game that I would 100% reccomend.
