VN - Ren'Py - Empire Hostess Club [v0.2] [Zao83]

In this game you get isekai'd into the body of a brothel owner, who previously treated his employees very badly. MC is now a very good guy however, that turns the club into a more wholesome experience. Game does what it wants in an excellent manner. If you are looking for wholesome NTS/sharing with a very chill, non-malicious story line this is perfect. All of the girls have some depth to them and you are invested in the MCs relationship to them and them spicing it up with the clients of the club. Game has many animations, renders are as you would expect from a Koikatsu Game. Dev has also been getting better with this, dark skin girl was updated since in v0.1 from a very weird looking skin to a more natural tone. I really like the idea overall and hope the dev keeps going like this.

V0.2
Pros:

• Notification system makes it easy to avoid missing content.
• Number of main cast is fairly large this early in the game but the content and development spread between each has been juggled well, nobody has been neglected so far.
• Functional gallery that unlocks missed scenes if you progress past it.

Cons:

• Audio balancing is a little off, vfx vs bgm gets too loud or too soft in different scenes.
• Translation seems to be MTL, the dialogue can get a little confusing at times.

What a great game, for being as good as it is and only on .2 awesome to see.

The content is a bit niche, its a NTS/Swinging game, but it does it sooo so well. Having the characters be open and honest with each other, allowing for these very lewd scenes and scenarios but with characters who care for each other is so nice.

The underlying plot that is going on is interesting too and i'm not sure where its going to go but it has actually sucked me in and got me reading everything.

The girls are all amazing, looking forward to see who gets added next!

I really hope this game has a lot of content left in it to be added, its soo damn good and the dev has a great mind for it.

Has easily become one of my favorites on here

The game is promising. The story is good so far, but the writting could use some work. Some revision on the translation should improve enough. The models could also improve a bit. The men could have more variety on their models and less ugly bastards for every single character. The girls look mostly fine, but Reika's skin looks really off. Koikatsu is not very good with dark skin, so her skin color just look too dark for the style. She would look much better with a clearer skin tone, like Ghust or the princess.

The story is pretty nice so far. All the main characters have enough depth to make them charming, but funny enough, the wife is probably the most bland so far. I wish she could have some more edge to her character, or to something make her stand out more.

The "free roam" system is fine, but it could use some indication, when interacting with the girls, which one will advance time, otherwise you could lose some dialog if you don't go back.

Overall, I think the game is really nice, and I wish the dev continues working on it, since the niche of netorase harem is pretty rare.

This game delivers a gripping narrative with complex, well-developed characters whose desires, flaws, and emotional depth make them feel startlingly real. The erotic scenes are more than just titillation they’re, intense, and charged with raw chemistry, enhancing both the story and character relationships.

Good game! art is good enough and the writing is ok too, what is nice is the amount of content for a first update. The girls design welp, u have for almost every taste, and with the promise to add new girls, dev can go anywhere he wants in that regard. Its a simple idea well executed for a first update.

Review edited after playing version 0.2

The developer has taken into account all suggestions and as a result the game has greatly improve. Thank you for listening to us, I have really enjoyed this second instalment and I am eagerly waiting for the future updates.
