    Hi everyone. I want to note upfront that this review is written by a non-native speaker, so there may be some inaccuracies.

    I believe the game has been unfairly underrated by critics and deserves more attention than it currently gets. Yes, it does have certain issues with the tutorial — I spent the first two or three in-game days just trying to figure out how everything works and where to go next. However, even this can be seen as part of the role-playing experience: the story places you in an unfamiliar place with its own rules, and you gradually learn how strict those rules are toward you.

    As for the English translation — native speakers will probably have more to say about that. I play using MTool, and the quality of the translation, to put it mildly, leaves much to be desired.

    Now, let's talk about the positives. The game includes several elements that I often miss in other sandbox-style games:
    • Interesting character interactions : when a character is not yet available for interaction, the game often shows teasing sexual animations that build anticipation and motivate you to keep playing until that character becomes accessible.
    • Gradual "corruption" of characters , accompanied by visual changes and corresponding animations.
    • Decent female character models and animations — overall, the technical execution is at a decent level.

    However, there are also some problems:
    • The main character’s movement speed feels too slow , which makes exploration less enjoyable.
    • In contrast, the process of corrupting the girls happens way too fast . Although there are a few short transitional animations showing their gradual change under your influence, the overall progression feels rushed. For example, you can fully corrupt Annette in just 5 minutes by watching only 2–3 such animations, without any real sense of character development or behavioral shift.
    • There are some issues with hints and tips : they’re sometimes vague, unhelpful, or even misleading.
    • A lack of clear signage above shops makes navigation in the city confusing. The city itself is quite large but contains only about 4–5 points of interest, making it feel oddly empty and disorienting.

    Another thing worth mentioning is the structure of the storylines. The game isn’t particularly long, and if not for the slow movement, you could breeze through the plot very quickly. Additionally, one girl’s storyline often depends on another’s , which artificially slows down progression. For example: “Talk to one girl after lunch, and she sends you to a shop — but you can only visit that shop in the morning. So you have to skip the day, travel to town, wait until after lunch again, deliver what she wanted, get the information, and only then skip ahead to the next day to continue the second girl’s story.” These kinds of dependencies add unnecessary delays and don’t always make sense from a gameplay perspective.


    Also, due to the game’s relaxed pace, there’s a noticeable lack of content to enjoy between major story beats . As a result, players tend to skip entire days just to move forward in the plot, rather than explore the mansion or interact with characters.


    One last thing that slightly confused me was the “hearts” system. Hearts are awarded for simple, everyday actions and accumulate far too quickly. There’s also a mechanic where a girl might “miss” you if you don’t interact with her all day, causing you to lose one heart. Still, maintaining high affection levels is never really an issue. In my opinion, the hearts system feels largely insignificant , both for the player and the characters themselves. I’m not sure it needs to be made harder, but right now, it feels more like a formality than a meaningful gameplay feature.

    Summary:
    This is a game with potential that fans of the genre might appreciate. Despite several flaws — slow movement, rushed progression, interface issues, and the heart system — it offers engaging mechanics and solid visual content. I think it deserves a chance and possibly some improvements in future updates.

    This game is not as bad, with QoL changes it would be a 3.5~4 IMO.
    As others have pointed out, the models and animations and that stuff is good, but playing this game is kinda annoying, walking simulator type of game with bad directions and bugs.
    The english translations has problems, seems like regular google translate was used. ChatGPT has fantasic translation, wish it was used here.

    For now im dropping it, maybe when there is a full release i will try it again.

    The game isn't perfect. It's not a bad game, like some folks are claiming, but it's definitely has some issues. Maybe I just have a higher tolerance for figuring stuff out on my own, so sandbox games don't bother me as much.

    First off, the models look gorgeous, some have exaggerated proportions, none of them look bad, except maybe the cop, she has extra for sure. Story is interesting enough, to where I want to know more about what is going on. Yeah it has some of the common tropes that pretty much every game has, like mc has a ridiculous wiener; there is an op plot device that makes women horny; mc gets a 'helper,' that automatically loves him and is totally okay with sharing; the two cousins are the nice/mean archetypes and the mother is doting by default.

    The dialogue and pretty much all text needs work, especially with pronouns switching at random. Sometimes we, becomes I, or you, or me, she, becomes he, or him and the same in reverse. I don't know if that is just something that gets lost in translation when you use a gendered language like spanish, because so many times it's obvious who is speaking, but then you see the wrong word and it makes you question what you just read, like were they talking about someone else. The game probably needs more hand holding for zoomers and people with shorter attention spans, for sure.

    tl;dr good game, but flawed, needs qol changes and help with the translation.

    The game looks very promising. The models look great and I like the story/plot. I just hope the dev keeps releasing update in a timely manner and contain actual content. It has been a bit shaky last year with updates and bug fixes. Speaking of bugs, the game has a fair amount of bugs unfortunately, that needs to be fixed as well. There is some improvements lately but still. A functioning and up-to-date gallery would also be great...

    I think it's a beautiful game.
    • The models are gorgeous..
    • The story can only be intriguing because you are surrounded by beautiful girls and women.
    • I also really like animations because they are calibrated never boring.
    • Playing is quite varied and always creates that curiosity to discover something new. I played for 5 hours I think, and I've never been fed up or bored. There are things to discover at all hours in many places.
    • I can say that finding things in the city is a bit slow as there is no map of the city.
    • Indeed there are several errors in the game that make it a little worse than it really is.
    In summary: with these models and the curiosity of the gameplay, I find it a great game.

    The animations are good, the story is intresting, graphics are good (I love those huge tits and fat asses).
    It has a good amount of conted.
    My gripe comes from 2 sides, one is that there are no map to atleast figure where are you and second there is no journal to know exactly what to do. and a bonus is that to enter the phone you have to roght click insted of like any other rpgm with the "esc".

    I really like all the characters, their models, and the animations... too bad the gameplay makes it really fucking hard to see these scenes.

    First off, the (normal) menu is disabled and instead gives you a phone menu that you have to open with right click (yeah, so obvious that it doesn't even appear in the tutorial it gave). While obtuse and broken, it's not the worst I have seen. It's got a fast travel system, a relationship screen, and a load option... but no save option.

    Like really, what good does it makes to limit when and where you can save?
    Not that there's any challenge besides walking around, nor does it affect the progress of the game. It's natural that players want to see different outcomes, why makes it such a hassle that you can only save in your room? While there exists a fast travel, it's still so finicky that it makes you wonder "why can't I just save right away"

    Yeah, the place is huge as shit, if you wanna walk, you'll be spending the entire year of your life wondering where the hell you should go next because the navigation sucks dick. Since the fast travel only takes you to main locations, it doesn't help you with specific locations like someone's room, or the freaking hallway where they work.

    Why isn't the objective screen tied to the phone menu, really? Do I have to go back to the room everytime I made progress and had no idea where I'm suppose go or what to do. The hints it give you is stupidly vague as well "I need see Wendy for the key to the pool." Well smart guy, I have several questions like where's Wendy and when should I go find her so she doesn't greet me with generic dialogue like "the weather is nice"

    This isn't because the developer has ESL, this is a fundamentally bad navigation if I can't find her even with fast travel. Especially whn the "objectives" could easily be a quest menu than something you need to see at a freaking desk!

    All of this is worsen by the fact that most of the events are randomized, meaning that there's no specific schedule that characters follow, or where they go during the day exactly that you can keep track of, and the time keeps flowing, so the characters keep changing where they go before you can even walk there while you grasp the directions.

    Yeah, there's a real time flow, each minute is one hour in this game like how it works in Last Hope, but crappier. This sucks so much that I wish the developer wouldn't bother designing such of bullcrap system and instead just opted for "each event passes the time" like the other games did.

    Sure, it's an alpha, but the development started since Sep 2022 to the time writing, Nov 2023. That's entire year and 2 months to fix these fundamental problems I should mention, it's awful how the developer thinks nothing of the design and kept it all the way to how it is now. Which disappoints me, since this could've been a really good game.

    The Wizard of Oz

    This game is the epitome of crap gameplay.
    A huge amount of time is spent on completely stupid walking around an empty mansion.
    There are no hints on what to do, sometimes the characters say where to go, but where exactly this place is is unknown, the map are in the game or not, or it is blocked, It’s not clear, without it you have to run around a huge location in search of “something”.
    I understood how to load the game, but I still don’t understand how to save it. :ROFLMAO:
    In any case, the implementation is disgusting, the game does not bring positive emotions at all,It's difficult and unpleasant to play. :sick:

    This game has a lot of potential. It features well-crafted sex scenes, appealing character models, and an intriguing storyline. However, the overall design leaves much to be desired, to be honest. There are notable bugs that hinder player interaction, especially in scenes involving the character Nadia. It's quite bizarre to encounter duplicate Nadias in her room, but it's understandable that this is a bug.

    One significant drawback is the limited ability to visit your room – where you can save progress and view objectives – only at certain points in the day. This restriction can be quite frustrating for players who prefer more freedom in managing these aspects of the game.

    Given these issues, I would recommend the developer to consider a fresh start. A remake of the game with improved design could potentially address these bugs and enhance the overall user experience. Starting afresh might allow for a more polished and seamless gameplay environment, ensuring that players can fully enjoy the engaging elements the game has to offer. I hope the developer takes this feedback into consideration for future updates or developments.



    For my Spanish speakers -


    Este juego tiene mucho potencial. Presenta escenas de sexo bien elaboradas, modelos de personajes atractivos y una historia intrigante. Sin embargo, el diseño general deja mucho que desear, para ser honesto. Hay errores notables que dificultan la interacción del jugador, especialmente en escenas con el personaje Nadia. Es bastante extraño encontrarse con duplicados de Nadia en su habitación, pero se entiende que es un error.

    Una desventaja significativa es la limitación para visitar tu habitación, donde puedes guardar el progreso y ver los objetivos, solo en ciertos momentos del día. Esta restricción puede resultar bastante frustrante para los jugadores que prefieren tener más libertad para gestionar estos aspectos del juego.

    Dado estos problemas, recomendaría al desarrollador considerar un nuevo comienzo. Un remake del juego con un diseño mejorado podría abordar estos errores y mejorar la experiencia general del usuario. Empezar de nuevo podría permitir un entorno de juego más pulido y sin problemas, asegurando que los jugadores puedan disfrutar plenamente de los elementos atractivos que el juego tiene para ofrecer. Espero que el desarrollador tome en cuenta estos comentarios para futuras actualizaciones o desarrollos.

    Utter garbage. RPGM game that crashes every 2 seconds and there's no clear indication of what you're supposed to click on to move to the next area because sometimes there's a glowing dot and sometimes there's not. I played both other games from the dev and while I like his art; he never finishes games and I have no doubt this will never be anything more than a buggy, incomplete mess.

    I like this game because of the characters, and the family history.
    The characters remind me of NLT, but the difference is this Dev is professional, because his games don't have bugs, and when they do they are repaired immediately, in addition to the stories of the games that are engaging.
    90% of Mansion of Lust is walking around the house without any action.
    There are bugs that don't let you interact with the character (eg Nadia) where in her room there are 2 duplicate Nadias.
    No offense but I think Dev is amateur , or they have no imagination
    I wait for the game to end (if it does) and then download.
    I gave 2 stars just for the characters, otherwise I would only give one
    I'm glad I'm not subscribed to this Dev's Patreon otherwise I would waste time and money

    I would give half star if I can. The only good things in this games are women models (most of them) they are pretty hot and animations are not too great but also not terrible. Mansion is to big, 2/3 of the game I spend on running all around. Yes, there is a fast travel option, but it doesn't help much. This is 3rd game of this developer and still there is a lot of bugs, sometimes only loading previous save will help. Hints about game progression are sometimes confusing and I spend too much time searching for place where I can progress story. This is v6(?) and there is very few scenes/content, development is slow. I was more bored than entertained while playing this game.
    I strongly recommend to not play this game, unless you have a LOT of free time and very desperate. I personally will return when game is (and if) completed.

    As other reviewers have already pointed out: This game has horrible game design.

    You can only visit your room (save, view objectives/progess) at certain points of the day.
    With that said there is no way of knowing what you are supposed to do next as the NPC dialogue is vague and cuts off.
    Walking simulator makes it much worse since you have no idea where to go or what to do & the maps are big so have fun!

    The animations are the bait, better to just rip & view.
    Dev needs to stop this game and start from scratch after learning alot more.

    I really couldn't make it too far into this game because of the awful game design (there is no way in hell to guess where your supposed to go half the time in a fucking enormous mansion), then somewhat thankfully the game broke and i couldn't leave a room so I had no desire to continue playing it.

    8/10 models
    0/10 game design

    The game has only just started, and I have no idea what I am supposed to do. The broken english certainly doesn't help, but even worse is the completely dark and disorienting mansion where you can go up stairs, but to go back down you have to go all the way around the corridors to the other stairs. The hallways also make no sense and many doors lead nowhere.
    3d models look awesome though (except MC) and are the saving grace from getting one star.
