Review
I’m going to start off by saying that this game is fantastically written. And I know that, because translation is fairly mediocre. Maybe even bad. And yet. It truly struck a chord within me.
For essentially the entire story I was waylaid with an overwhelming sense of melancholy. It’s the only word I can use to really describe it. Was I sad? Yes, at times. But sadness you at least know the direct cause of your sadness.
The game does a fantastic job of creating of sense of…hopelessness? A sort of sense that, even if you do solve all your problems, is what you’re trying to get back to really worth it? And yet, despite your desire to curl up into a ball and never see the world again, time marches on. The days keep moving. And you must march forward with them. Or die. I suppose you could always just choose to die.
The game comes with a text document that lists the requirements you have to meet to get the true ending. I recommend you use it. As long as you evenly place each type in each area though you should be good though.
As for the gameplay…it fits with the theming I suppose. There’s a sense of detachment built into it. It…it works. It’s not the most engaging thing in the world; but considering a significant portion of your playtime will be comprised of wistful sighs and staring off into the middle distance, it probably shouldn’t be.
And the porn? Well. Unfortunately, that sense of detachment carries over to the porn as well. Maybe you can get aroused by it, but I was too melancholic to be.
Loved this game. I’m a huge sucker for pixel art and yes, in agreeance with the other reviews here it is a little disappointing that there are only really 15 sexual animations in the game (and if you’re pushing the game’s mechanics you really only end up seeing 9 at most), they’re pretty good and the game itself is fun enough to compensate. In the realm of indie hentai games and for the price, its well worth it. Did I mention it is playable with one hand?
A basic brothel management simulator. You build rooms to serve your clients and support your staff. You purchase androids to service guests, collect fees, make repairs and defend your building.
Entirely made of pixel art with the exception of some UI elements, the art is quite good, especially the H animations. Each of the 5 types of androids perform a small set. There is also some CG after beating the story.
The music is good, however you don’t get to hear the other tracks until near the end of the game, and you don’t get to hear them again. Progression is really slow, even on easy mode, so the main theme can become repetitive.
Equipment does not influence the appearance or H animations. It’s a long grind, and more animations aren’t even unlocked with new rooms. Once you’ve seen them from all 5 girls the only reason to keep playing is if you enjoy the gameplay, want to read the story, or want to see the CG for some reason.
Recommend you like pixel art
The game is very beautiful, the music is nice and the characters are good looking. This tycoon-style of running a brothel is very interesting as well. It is a game with very good foundational concept, but not to the best of it’s potential. One of the reason being that the enjoyment of growth kind of dies off at the end as there is little to no more growth.
Firstly, some critism towards the game’s UI. Since it’s a H game, a gallery mode would be very appreciated. I suggest letting the player reread story cutscenes and also being able to replay the H animations for the girls at any time.
Second, regarding the game’s customisation. The game has some nice customisation, but more would make it even better. After playing for a while, gameplay and characters would start to feel old. Here are some suggestions: Under the technology section, once you finish upgrading everything, I feel that the points leftover can be used to upgrade the androids personal stats like their HP, or grade in whatever service they are in, or buy some costumes, it would make the grind more worth it.
Thirdly, English compatibility. I put this as last because it’s the least important but I still want to bring it up. The game did a good job on providing enough English for English speakers like me to understand how the game works at the core. Some stuff needed to be google translated but it’s fine. My main issue is that the story cutscenes are not translated. It takes out the joy of getting to know what is going on and what the characters really are. I understand that if you can’t it’s fine though.
Overall it’s a good game, good graphics, nice scenes and nice music . Could use more content for customisation in endgame and a playback system.
Game’s resource management is too simple that it’s pretty much mostly passive. You just buy upgrades and progress. I had fun, but wouldn’t replay, and honestly can’t recommend. The aesthetics are great but it’s not very exciting, and frankly only the art is recommendable… also felt that the combat wasn’t well fleshed out and was practically shoehorned in because there’s not much you can do besides move units around. I could enjoy the game just as much without the whole aspect entirely.
難度ノーマルでシナリオトゥルー到達済み。
ドット絵の横画面娼館経営ゲーと聞いて真っ先に「ボクの奴隷娼館」を思い浮かべる紳士諸兄はそのままのイメージで購入して欲しい。概ね合っている。
ボイスが一切なく、また各種条件を指定してのフリーモードが無いので抜きゲーとしてみると物足りないかもしれないが、フレーバーありきの18禁経営ゲームとして見るなら良い。
SF風味のヒロインたちからなるシナリオも、アンドロイドというワードが持つ悲壮感や後ろ暗さを味わえて良い。
大筋となるメインシナリオのオチは若干ご都合主義感があるけど、まぁそれはそれで楽しめた。
一つ難点を挙げるなら、エロゲとしての部分も、シナリオゲーとしての部分も、経営ゲーとしての部分も5段階評価の3~4位で無難な仕上がりであり「コレ!」というポイントに欠けることか。
まとまりは良いけど強みに欠ける、そんなゲームだった。
