The Good Son is an erotic game where the main character - a young man in his last year of university - is asked to pay off the mob in order to save his father. To keep up with the mob's ever increasing demands for cash, he'll have to get creative - and creative means crossdressing as a woman in order to work as a waitress in a nightclub! What comes next is a gradual progression into a new, feminine, and submissive way of life. His life will forever be changed through the guidance and support his cheerful and talented supervisor (Katie), his gorgeous and empathetic girlfriend (Susan), and his incredibly kind and well-built best friend / personal trainer (Todd).
The game centers on the themes of feminization and sissification. That being said, it is not focused on humiliation, and does not involve any direct blackmail. The main character goes on this journey on his own volition (and can stop at any time, though of course his father's life is on the line). This is a story of sexual awakening and self-discovery, as the main character finds himself (or herself) more at home in panties and heels than jeans and sneakers, and finds his (or her) sexual orientation shifting at the same time. It's kinky, it's hot, but most of all it's a positive spin on the tried-and-true feminization trope.

One of the best! Very clearly in the top on this site, great story, great writing, great encouragement to continue on.
Sure, there are grindy moments, but you do get to the point, in game, where the grind dies down and the story continues. Tons of paths, kinks, and fun to follow as well. I will be playing updates to this for a long time!
I really love this game, but the grinding is a bit too much. If you want to chance your lover for other scenes you have to go back quite a bit. It would be nice to access the cheat menu a bit more early. If you arrive at the auction you have no chance to change your lover.
Except the grinding the game is awesome. Made with such detail and it's easy to see yourself as the protagonist. The slow change ist nice and makes it more realistic.
Please keep making this awesome game and please more udates :)
There is alot of content in the game. Unfortunately, you have to grind the same actions repeatedly and I personally find the level of grind to be detrimental to the game. I feel like there could be more options to progress time by pursuing specific content which would also increase the interactivity. With those complaints in mind, know that I really enjoyed the game.
Man, lobsterman truly understands that grind kills the game. The game is generally easy to navigate(shortcut keys when???), there's content on almost every weekday that advances the story, and there are multiple story lines to pursue. After a long hiatus, we get yet another update. And now, even more quality of life stuff like post-endgame dating that allows you to switch between different unplayed content paths. Brilliant. Simply brilliant.
Take note, other game devs. This is the way of the master. Bing chilling and shit. But seriously, the game is great, image selection is awesome, the story gets you involved in the different characters with their unique backgrounds. Honestly, one of the best games on TFG.
I really enjoyed this game on my first playthrough, so much so that I have been waiting with anticipation for the next version.
It's certainly true that the game has a lot of polish, uses text well, good images, and so on.
But the thing I have noticed the most on playing through again is just how "on rails" the whole thing is.
For example on this playthrough I didn't want the Todd content again. But there appears to be absolutely no way around it. You can't advance the clock without going to the gym and there are zero options in most of that content.
Same for the waitressing — you don't even get to choose your outfits.
I didnt want out of chastity, I preferred it, but no I have to tangle with the mob.
And I can't take risks as a streetwalker, I have to have the pimp. That pimp.
There are very few choices in the game although a few more in the later content (Chad vs Olivier, Todd vs Jack).
I think the content that is there is good, enough so that I didn't notice how much the game had forced my hand first time around. But it's not a game for telling your own story.
