The game literally has minimal amount of grinding what are you talking about? It's not grindy at all. The only thing you have to grind a little is gold and you can solve it in 5 second with renpy save editor. Some of the best and extremely popular harem games are all sandbox. Harem Hotel, Corrupted Kingdoms, Myhtical Manor, What A Legend, Love of Magic, A House in the Rift, Treasure of Nadia, Sexnote, The Headmaster, Corruption, Taffy Tales, Champions of Realms, MIST ...etc. When it's done right, sandbox games are the best. Personally I like better than one and done vn games. Repeatable content and the world keeps the game alive for me while waiting for update. I occasionaly launch the game to fuck around while waiting for update. But when it's one and done games, I only play the game when there is new update. After that the game is dead. For example I can launch harem hotel to fuck around with my harem girls time to time wile I wait many months for new update on games like WVM. Just because you hate sandbox, not everybody needs to hate it. In fact they are extremely popular
