Seeking Japanese hidden gems

[Pretentious Goblin]

Almost every time I start up a Japanese game, I'm put off by cliches, lousy writing, awkward phrasing and one-dimensional characters who just exist to fulfill a pathetically unimaginative fantasy (goblin gangrape game #3586). But I know there are some where the stars align to at least give us something that a western player can enjoy reading. I'm looking for corruption-focused games, especially ones with no or avoidable rape. And it needs to have gameplay, so I expect mostly RPGM. Some examples that I actually liked:

Girl Knight Milk though its probably not what you're looking for bc theres a ton of non consent, its a hidden gem imo. has decent corruption and solid dress up options

The Protagonist can attack guards and go to the jail and some other sandbox elements.
The Protagonist can be captured by slavers and escape from them.

Still looking for well-written and translated Japanese non-VN games. Or any such game from the last 2 years.

It's not on f95zone, alas, because of some small shota part of content - so is there a chance that you haven't played that? It already has a good official english translation as The Scarlet Demonslayer, and you can find it easily enough. There was some more old, fan-mtl translation, don't fall for it.
A bit especial thing for the guys with "emotionless" fetish about a powerful girl breaking bad, with a succubus ring changing her common sense. She's sucking power from getting seen when she's getting groped, etc. So, she's pretending to be coerced even though she can easily kill the guys. Or she pretends to be a "hotwife" of her subordinate in a village they're visiting. Ah, and the succubus ring allows her to hear the lustful thoughts of those who see her. And that's getting escalated.
And the gameplay is not grinding, thankfully.

And for sure you've played Knightess Whore?

I don't know either of these but I'll check them out, thanks.

- you play as an alien collecting women to make an intergalactic brothel. Unfortunately, I'm not sure a translation exists.
