VN - Ren'Py - Maid to Please [v0.15.5] [Tutbork]

It's definitely a wish fulfilment power fantasy, so you need to enjoy this type of game. However, since that is essentially a genre and thus can't really be considered a pro or a con, but simply a personal preference, I don't include it in this review.

The story is very well written and reasonably original, the renders are beautiful, and the animations are great.

There aren't really any choices to be made about the story, but with every single LI scene you can pick between love, submission, or passing on them completely, which is far to rare for this type of game.

The LI's themselves and the side characters are varied and interesting. I saw some reviews calling the MC a simp, but I don't see that at all. A simp is generally someone who bends over backwards for a woman in order to get laid, but the MC helps in a far more casual manner, and simply because he wants to help. At least, that is my interpretation, and I'm saying that as someone who hates the simp-type MC as much as anyone.

That said, there are some clichéd moments, like the MC not letting someone finish talking multiple times, only to later find out that what she was going to say was important.

I do like, however, how the MC didn't hesitate when it came to his revenge, or excessively ponder the moral implications of it all. Is it realistic? That's debatable and depends on the person, but its so overdone that I'm really glad it's not in there.

Anyway, I would have given this game 4 stars, but I'm going with 5 to slightly compensate for some of the previous reviews that I believe were overly negative and not objective enough.

This is another entry into the genre of what I like to call "harem white-knight simulators." Girls exist for the MC to protect/help in some way, and the MC is jacked guy who is also super smart and caring and a badass and also an undercover agent and blah blah blah. Generic wish fulfilment stuff.

However, while I am not a fan of this type of game at all, I will admit that it's executed better than most games like it. The english is readable, the scenes with the redhead are pretty hot, and some of the dialogue is genuinely funny.

Visually, the characters are inconsistent, and the facial posing is oftentimes very poor, but I do appreciate the visual diversity of the LI's.

This game is definitely not for me, but if you enjoy these types of wish-fulfilment games, you could do a lot worse.

I really liked this VN. It has great and high quality renders.

Grammar and spelling is good, but not perfect.

The females are very well designed and has great variety.

There's Maledom and affection route for all women (i think?). Which is great since that makes it feel like your choices actually matter and has an impact on the story.

There's a tiny bit ofcomedy in the VN, i usually hate comedy but its minor and well done enough that it doesnt bother me.

The only problem I have with this VN is that MC acts like a simp while believing hes being chivalrous and gentlemanly, when in fact hes being nothing but a simp.


then theres the fact that mc keeps shutting down the latina cop even though she obviously had some very important information to share with him, then when said important information finally gets through to MC from someone else rather than the latina cop, The MC proceeds to throw a tantrum and call her a liar when it was HIM who kept shutting her down when she tried to tell him. That was incredibly shortsighted and childish of him.



i would've rated this 4.5/5 originally, but the MC made it a 3/5.

Maid to Please [v0.14.2] Surprisingly great game. With good dose of humour and magnificent animations. We have a deep story about revange and lust. I must admit that I was sceptical at first, but this game clearly made to my top tier list. Best animations I have seen with hair psychics added too. In most games if not all I have not seen movement of hair. This is the first one and I love it. Add that animations are from not one angle but it is from multiple perspectives in one smooth animation which is really good. I was surprised when I burst out laughing over jokes in a game. I barely do it watching memes. Even less in games, but this one accomplished that.
Humour 5/5 Great jokes to laugh at
Animations 5/5 Great animations with varying perspectives and hair movement
Renders 4/5 Some renders, especially backgrounds leave much to desire
Plot 4/5 I will admit that I tought up similar story in my mind and dev made it a reality
Eroticism/teasing 4,5/5 Hard to point to one single good thing because there are many but it could always be better

Add to it that is a game for few hours of playing. At least in one playtrough.

[Reviewed v0.13.3]

This is worth 3.5 stars - a solid but not spectacular title with lots of familiar tropes. The more recent updates have made some improvements but overall this feels pretty average.

The Good ()

• The story and characters have unique wrinkles and the narrative seems to be building to something interesting
• Diversity of LIs and romanceable characters -- both in personalities and body types
• Good use of animation
• Models / graphics seemed to have been improved in more recent updates

The Not-So-Good ()

• A lot of the settings / relationships / character tropes are all very familiar
• Graphics look quite dated and aren't really up to 2024 standards
• Some of the faces are often contorted or maintain ugly expressions
• While the overall story has some interesting aspects, there are other plot points that are a bit strange / off-putting -- there's a whole vengeance / investigation sub-plot that has some darker moments, like the MC killing characters

Overall, I didn't mind the game and will probably play future updates, but this doesn't otherwise stand out from a quality perspective.

From the title, I was all prepared to be bored and dump this game pronto -- but what a nice surprise: it's really good! A bit of almost everything, some kink, some romance, a lot of delightfully comic, hothouse writing (the MC had a kind of Archer vibe - in a good way!) And so many avenues to choose! Only petty grievance for me would be the character of Jessie, which seems deliberate, but still an off-putter. But all in all, well done!!

The submission and love routes make this a minimum 3 stars. I especially like how the submission route goes the 'I'm doing this for your own good' aspect rather than 'you'll take it and like it' aspect. The MC exerts control over the LIs in subtle forms (e.g. telling the LI to wait to get out of the car until he opens the door, etc.) which is an interesting addition. It is refreshing to see a novel pepper the domination with affection. I enjoyed the story line of making the wife submissive behind the MC's father's back, but then a lot of characters start dropping in and some plot about the MC being a special agent really ruined this for me. I found myself skipping large amounts of the story and LIs to get to the Father/MC/Father's girlfriend scenes. After a while, I just gave up and looked at some porn. Well, let's add this to the burgeoning ignored thread pile.

Excellent story. 5 - 10 hours of content depending on reading speed. Small amount of replayability.
Production quality is extremely high throughout, animations start generic and janky but become very smooth in the more recent updates.
Characters are well written, MC is likeable, models are cute.

My only criticism is I feel the game has too many characters.
The bloat means that you get interested in one characters plot line, either actual story or lewd development, then get frustrated when it jumps over to a different thread for half an hour.
Some characters are left almost entirely untouched after introduction and early points (affection).

A directors cut which streamlines content, reshuffling the story to be more coherent would easily push this into the top 10 on the site.
I rate it 5/5 regardless.

As of 0.13.3

Ok, that was a pleasant surprise.
Neither the name of the game, nor the description do it justice. What the game is in reality is a decent dom/corruption porn game, married to an action thriller as the overarching story.
As a porn game there is stuff to be desired, there are some glaring tropes in here (horse dick, a guy every chick wants to bang, choices not telegraphed well), but the characters are fun and interesting, the story is pretty engaging, while not taking itself too seriously.
MC is likable and fun.
Neither a slow burn, nor a fuckfest, to me it finds a good balance.
Strongly recommending this one!

Congratz dev. Itz been a long time since I had a good play like this!
Nice history and the cool catch on sub route and love one.
Some characters need a bit more of spice, like Hanna's hair, but that is just my view.
Thank you and keep the good job. Good luck!

v0.13.3 4*
Its good! Better than I thought it would be honestly. From the description it sounds like a game designed to basically get you from one lewd scene to the next. While there are about the right amount of lewds, the game itself is quite good apart from that.

To start, the MC is well written! He is tends toward being the dominant partner in his reactions, but he doesn't come off as a red-pilled Andrew Tate wanabee. There's still respect. And he's confident without be an asshole. And the dude LOVES women. Not just for the lewd things, but he really really likes women. There's no misogyny here. Its quite refreshing.

The technicals things are fine. Renders and animations are good enough. The writing is above average. There's BGM thats only annoying some of the time. The girl's models are quite unique. Some will love em, some won't. I found most of the girls adorable. Nothing is truly amazing, but its all good enough. Hence 4*s rather than 5. Well worth playing.

This is surprisingly good, and also perhaps surprisingly, not some kind of maid trainer. So if you're thrown off by the name, don't be.

The women are kind of cool, though not top tier models you'd see in some other games, still attractive and have personality. The story is pretty good, and you are decisive, goal oriented, even dominant, without being an egomaniacal dick - which is wonderful.

Overall it is a rewarding game that doesn't quite go where you think it's going, and it's better for it. It is not a maid trainer, nor is it a stupid revenge story. There's a plot here, and as of yet it's a good one.

Maid to Please [v0.12.4] [Tutbork]

This game deserves a better rating. Yeah, the MC looks like weird Robert Pattinson from Twilight with even uglier eyebrows. I would've preferred if Beth was actually your "dad's" wife and not live-at-home girlfriend.' The MC's "dad" has some weird cuckhold dialog instructing the MC to flirt and dominate Beth. Nevertheless, the story is actually well written. The MC is presented with three routes with each character introduced: love interest, submissive, and no interest. Those routes are not set in stone either. The flexibility in your decisions is what sells the realistic aspect of the game. You can choose later to show no interest in a character. You can decided so show affection/love or force the character to submit to MC. The decisions are all-or-nothing either.

+ one of the best mc i ever played, i love how assertive and confident he is towards girls and every situation in the game.
+ Catalina (and her theme song)
+ beautiful girls
+ game has funny moments
+ music
+ a lot of pussy-eating scenes
+ story is ok, nothing spectacular
+ slow burn is nicely done..

- ..but with some girls is really too slow, there is literally 0 progress

easy 5 stars, mainly because of the awesome mc. Most of them are wimps and idiots in avn's, so this is something really refreshing

I think the main stimulus is that you're making out with your father's girlfriend... Beth, who by the way is the best-made character... the one with the most personality and a decent face, at first I was angry at the way she treated us at the beginning of the story, but as expected she magically gave in to MC's charms and forgot her boyfriend, MC's father, and we have MC's neighbor, girl next door, the way she is introduced into our I think the story is a little forced... like she's kind of innocent and has no idea about the things around her, what would be right or wrong, (easy to corrupt) and always used by the author for provocation (teasing), I think it's very bad when everything the mc will do is considered crossing the line, and the girl can invade us while the mc sleeps and give a blowjob to make up for the teasing, as a form of compensation. The Asian maid in the house could be used more often... participate more often in the content, as she is really very beautiful, and pleasant, and has a beautiful face compared to the other girls, but it seems like she is only used for teasing also, as for jessica... i really don't know how to say this but... that scene where the mc is following the corrupt police officer and looks to the side in the bar and jessica is standing there looking at him... the face Hers really left me worried... and I often asked myself if she was really supposed to be like that, it's very artificial, it doesn't fit... it's weird... although her role in the story is good, her appearance among all the girls It's the weirdest, the role of MC's father kind of doesn't make sense to me, there are times when MC openly says he's flirting with his girlfriend, and MC's father accepts saying that MC wouldn't have the slightest chance anyway. (wtf??) but everything with her has to be done hidden?? It kind of doesn't make sense to me, MC's father always implies that he favors MC... and respects him... but in a scene at the beginning, all it takes is one word from Beth and MC's father is against him, even MC's father calling his own girlfriend a gold digger, it doesn't make sense... in relation to the story, there seems to be a lot of parallel things happening at the same time which makes it quite confusing at first, but neither do the characters and not even the story holds my interest, either in terms of personality, history or appearance, especially because there isn't much in FAP... much less sex, there is more provocation, clearly a game that the developer has been perfecting over the years. time, but which just didn't hold my interest.

The game is true awesome.
You really go thought the story participating in it. All the characters are vivid and develops in time. What is good is an absence of insincerity or pretense.
Nice jokes (in moments I laughed a lot).
A rare game with respectful MC.
In sex scenes (as for now) the game has its boundaries and I like it.

I downloaded it because I thought it looked hot.
It still looks hot, but I got hooked on the story!

The graphics are good, with some nice animations.
The characters are believable and each have their own style.

This game is f-n' awesome!
I didn't like Jessica at first, but after a while she became my favorite character.
She's written so well that I feel like I can almost hear her heavy southern accent in my head

- Excellent writing, if a bit long-winded at times though that's a lot less annoying when the author actually has the chops to pull it off;
- Good renders and animations, though sometimes there are pretty long gaps between sex scenes;
- Believable characters and scenarios overall, a lot more immersive than most games regarding character behavior (story is still in 'movie plot' territory but it's miles better than most other stories and actually makes sense in it's own context)
- Affection and Submission paths for all NPCs (so far anyway) with Dominance path actually having some semblance of realism to it;
- Plenty of content, multiple scenes


Main points for not giving it a 5/5 rating:
- Narrative threads and dialogues can run a bit long
- Most choices seem to be of the Yes/No to scene variation
- Game keeps piling on NPCs and I worry the roster will become too bloated, sometimes less is more and the game already has plenty of attractive prospective partners
