The Good Points:
In Home Alone, the goal is to have sex with your underage sister in as many
places/positions as possible, along with her equally underage friend who
comes along to help after an introductory scene that was actually sort of
nice to have. During the intro, you can type a specific command to get a
hint as to what to do next, and after the intro you can do pretty much
whatever you want.
The sex scenes take place in several different rooms, and there are several
different positions to engage in. The descriptions aren't terribly long or
interesting, but they're certainly better than in some games. It won't take
you long to finish the game, maybe fifteen minutes, and there's very little
"not having sex," so you don't have to wade through "dialogue" or "puzzles"
that detract from the "reading porn" experience.

The Bad Points:
While not a terrible game, Home Alone was pretty poorly executed. For on
thing, Vachon seems to have bad, nay terrible, grammar, and his spelling is
abysmal as well. Maybe I'm just anal retentive about this sort of thing, but
when certain words or passages are nearly indecipherable it sort of takes
away from the fun. Words like "murcy" and "pusy," or the great phrase "you
doesn't see it," just make the game reek of ineptitude. On a plus side, the
game refers to your sister Jill as "Julie" two or three times, which I
thought was hilarious.
Even worse, though, is a number of bugs that prevent you from doing a
number of important things. To get the girls to follow you into a room, you
must type, "call Jill and Monica" from the room you want them to enter.
However, they refuse to enter the bathroom (even though it says that they
follow you in), and you are apparently only allowed to call them into each
room once. Additionally, while there are a total of four items, only two can
be used, a dirty magazine and a photo you can look at. Wow.

Overview:
While Vachon's writing has improved dramatically since Relatives, he still
retains most of his weaknesses, mostly a poor grasp of standard English and
the inability to write an interesting description of sex; I'm sorry, but
"Aaahahhgg Jiiill i dont dont know how much llloonger i can take this" just
doesn't do anything for me aside from filling me with a deep sense of
chagrin. Home Alone is Vachon's best game so far, but that doesn't mean it's
worth playing.
