anyone got a guide on what the most optimal build is?
depends on what you want. a shameless, seductive slut or a powerful raid boss? the game has many different builds u can go and each one has its own playstyle. you can build your strength, dexterity, or agility and go for a warrior-type of build that focuses on hitting enemies. you can get mind and stamina upgrades, go for a slut build and defeat enemies sexually. and I haven't brought up anything about different variations of those two (butt-slut, virgin, dexterity focus, etc) or other less obvious builds people are experimenting with.

so, tell us what u want to do in the game, what u want to see, and then we can help u

Is there any possible way i can get more passive of masochism?

I remember there should be more than 31

U should make sure ur question makes sense first before asking.

U mentioned masochism but then also mentioned that theres more 31 passives from status under sadism. So which category r u asking about? Status under sadism?

Edit: I'm just gonna guess and take it that ur asking about status. For how many passives that is under the status category there's roughly over 90 under there.

"without ever losing" is the hard part. I can give u different setups but none of them are guaranteed to never lose. u need to understand that warrior builds (or as people like to call them, pure builds) are like playing on a time limit. as u spend more time fighting, it's inevitable that u collect passives and these passives make it easier for your opponents to initiate sexual attacks

first of all: no matter what is your build, u can always use one or two mind upgrades. on easier difficulties, it might not be that noticeable at first, but u need it eventually. because it's guaranteed that u will face sexual attacks before finishing the game. also there are some abilities that u can use with your pure builds here, so it's not a bad idea overall

we have 3 main stats for pure builds: strength, endurance and dexterity.

strength gives u pure dmg. if u want to get cleave, heavy attack, etc u need strength to increase their effectiveness. obviously u can pair it with Ki and deal a lot of dmg. problem? it's an all-out offensive build. so a setup for strength could be strength upgrade, halberd attack and a few mind or stamina upgrades (second wind is a very interesting choice here, but it's rather personal preference)

endurance makes u tanky, tho people mostly use it to make a tank slut build. u take less dmg. simple, but effective. this one pair well with halberd defense.

dexterity is the interesting one. u can use dexterity to deal more pleasure dmg, or make a counter-attack pure build. the dmg is not the best and it's a bit risky. for a pure build focused on dex, u need to rely on dodging, because Karryn will counter-attack even when u dodge incoming attacks. there are artifacts for dodge and some titles also provide more of it.

the last and most boring option is to become a jack-of-all-trades and get a little bit of upgrade in each one of these. I don't recommend that. each of your stats (like dex or str) grows as u use its specific abilities. are u using a lot of Ki+str attacks? well your dex will not grow as much. a balanced build will be fine for the most part, but the pressure is way more, especially when u face higher level enemies. defeating Yeti with a balanced build is basically a struggle and tho I like dark souls, I prefer to have fun in a porn game.

Karryn's prison is a simple but flexible game. u can decide what else u want in builds like these and it will be fine, more or less. u can go for dex build with a splash of endurance edicts to make it a bit tanky, or get some strength upgrades for more dmg. a strength build will benefit from some endurance upgrades, tho it's not that compatible with dex. the rest of the build is yours to decide. the veteran players here will eventually make a guide (I guess), but not before the game completion. so for now, experiment with the rest of the build

Edit: sry for the essay guys. but I think this can help a lot of new players around here. have fun!

So are the enemy icons for str, dex and end, there to more or less confuse you? Because it sounds like by following the attack pattern of those icons, you're just gonna develop all 3 of them at the end of the day which isn't really that viable. Like if you for a pure strength build, would the enemies with the str icon go down just as fast?

Remaining pure is impossible until the game has its ending because you're on a clock. The passives will eventually turn you into a slut, so you gotta clear floors quickly.

Like any intelligent trap, it is both useful and misleading. The advantages and disadvantages are real, but they are not as restricting as a traditional rock-paper-scissors. Basically, if you level your Rock (Strength), eventually you will get a SuperRock that is capable of beating both regular paper and scissors. However, you also need to have a secondary attack stat, both because accuracy is important and because all attacks have at least 1 turn cooldown. Nothing stops you from levelling everything, but you are going to end up with three mediocre tools in that case. This wouldn't be a problem if there was no level cap, but since you have limited amount of stat points smearing them across every possible stat is going to make you weaker in the long run.

Also, attack types matter not only in the case of offence. You are just as succeptible to this mechanic when recieving attacks from enemies.

You guys are on point actually, you can try and check out the game over, asking the cat in shadows for tips. It'll explain to you about these traps the game intentionally sets, to make your Karryn defeatable even if you try and go full genocide on prisoners.

as Luin said, the rock-paper-scissors system of the game is effective but not restrictive. u can still overpower enemies with a single attack type throughout the whole game, no matter what pure build u go. obviously, each one has its own disadvantages, for example nerds don't attack much and a counter-attack build will face difficulty against them or hitting some extremely agile, special enemies with a strength build is sometimes annoyingly hard. overall I can assure u the system is there and it has clear effects on the gameplay, but u can just ignore it and build as u want and it won't cause any significant trouble. so yeah, the intelligent trap would be a good name

Hey guys, I'm a new player. I just wanna wtach sex scenes and go through the game. But having sex is bad? And I should focus on combat? I feel like I'm not grasping the essence of this game yet. Is there some sort of newbie guide?

If you just want to see the scenes, bump the difficulty down to easy, take the passives that encourage sluttiness and lose some battles (running out of energy is the fastest way) Getting sexed is the only way to start having sex, and the game trends heavily torwards the masochistic side of things. Losing a lot and not managing your desires are the ways to get to all the content quickly.

But I think the essence of the game for me would be being able to control exactly what Karryn gets into, which is a tough thing to manage outside of easy-mode. Search the thread for the "how to get money"-guides, and don't hesitate to read the title-/passive-lists once you get the hang of the game. Also note, that the game supports New Game+, meaning your titles will carry over if you start over after losing a run. Literally "losing is fun".

meh... it's not going to beat Waitress. It's actually the most entertaining waitress job ever done in hrpg imo. And the Secretary job is already less fun than Waitress so i'm not hoping too much from this one.
