Ren'Py - Maya's Mission [v0.3.1 Public] [Pinkmochidango]

one of my fav games atm, early updates so ofc there isnt a incredible amount of content, which actually works in favor of this review, because with this amount of content, you can see that the dev really know what he is doing. Everything works here, the art is really nice, the writing is great and fun, and the gameplay is great, searching for stuff, the secret cards, some clues here and there etc. This flavor has some big hits and some huge flops, this game for sure and specially if continues like this, is a big hit. 5* for me

This game is really great! It's like other reviews say, it really feels like a Phoenix Wright game only that rated for adults, the writing is great, the art is great, everything about this game is great, especially seeing Maya being corrupted. I generally wait a while for the games to have more content to do a review but this game is extremely good, it have the potential to be one of the best in the genre so kudos to the dev and as soon as I can I will be a subscriber to this great game.

Looked at objectively, there is very little content, and even the full game will probably be very short.

However, it fits a niche in a way I didn’t know exists. What is there is of high quality. The sprites, locations, dialogue, etc feel like they are straight out of an actual game. It practically glows with character.

The niche, which I’d describe as "watching a friend/quasi-family member grow up and being corrupted" is something I have not seen before or since. There are some games or stories that are sort-of similar in aspects, but nothing like this.

The gameplay does a very good job of being intriguing, while delivering close to the minimum required to feel satisfying overall. There are a ton of tiny, sometimes hidden, lewd things. Individually too small to be satisfying, but the delivery is good enough to compensate.

5/5 stars for novelty, art, dialogue, mechanics, and general quality.

Generational H-Game. I'm sure it's destined to become a GOAT. Humor is great and fits the game and source material, character art looks very good with the background art that still looks good but you can see that it's bit worse than original material. I will probably pay for the few months of patreon.

Literally feels like playing a Ace Attorney game that is rated adult. Great work on every aspect!

The writing is on the same level and has the same vibe which adds to the emersion. The characters feel like the characters which in most parodies you lose.

The sex scenes and the little monitor system are done very well and a sense of suspense while the game is played. I can definity see this game being one of the ones to keep an eye on in the future and it will keep my eye on Pink Mochi Dango's next project.

This game is amazing,

The graphics, the UI, the music...etc we really feel inside an Ace attorney game, but the most incredible part is the writing ! most adult games that take place in a real game univers tend to have the same issues (out of character behaviors, bullshit writing...etc), but here the characters dialogs seems directly out of the real game ! it's incredible, even their behavior is faithful to the original game (outside the lewd part of course), if the team behind ace attorney made an avn they wouldn't have made it any better then this.


5 stars are not enough for this master piece, i only wish that the dev will continue to pull the update and complete the game, simply perfect.

Should preface by saying I've never played Phoenix Right. No interest, but no bias.

Essentially this is a fairly simple "click the background" game where nearly every woman you meet is lewd in some way. Outright whorish, clothes falling off, whatever. You go around talking to them, looking for info, discovering clues on why they're all posing nude.
While this is going on you can press a button in the corner to check up on your asssistant, who is seemingly fucking some guy.

Its a very simple premise, a simple gameplay loop and its basically all done well. The girls are cute, the malfuncions are hot, etc.

The reason this is a 4 rather than a 5 is the assistant plot. I'd call it voyeurism rather than NTR; mr. Phoenix seems to treat Maya as a sister more than anything else and he's also having sex in the game unavoidably, so its not like he's pining hard for her if he even is.
That's fine.
My problem is the pacing of it and the lack of any dialogue. You just see images. On the very first day she's already being groped, walking around talking to you with no bra. How did she fall so far day 1 she's forgetting her bra is gone? She goes to talk to the guy, comes back with a tit out. WHat happened? This feels like day, like, 5 progression. Not day 1. And by "day" I mean given how little Phoenix actually does, probably less than 1 hour (actually dialogue outright states its "nearly 2 hours", nowhere near enoug time).
Later days her sister is randomly there for no reason, she's making out with womens breasts, she's sucking his cock. Its all too fast, too unexplained and there doesn't seem to be any reason for Phoenix not to question her on this.
Far as he can tell, his little sister figure is being molested and corrupted by a man running an elicit lewd buisness, but he doesn't even try to talk to her about it.

Really takes me out of it. Her story feels overly disconnected from Phoenix as a character, too unexplained and overall actually brings the game down a bit.
Oh also forgot the bad guy apparently summoned a ghost to take pictures of her naked, which also seems like something to actually call out, not just immediately forget about.

My assumption is the bad guy has been fucking the girls for a while, but if so, that's really not getting across very well. I only assume so since the older sister is randomly there that one time

Hands down one of the best games I've played. The game imitates the real game to a tee, except with all your favorite characters being more morally bankrupt than ever before.
It seriously scratches that corruption itch I've been missing for a while.

I have to say, the humor and the personality of the characters (explicit language aside of course) is absolutely on point with how I remember these characters. This game will just keep getting better, I'm sure!

First time reviewing.
An excellent game from the scenario to the gameplay and the characters.
The fidelity to the universe is insane and we can really think that it's an Ace Attorney game with the sexy side.
Great job and good luck to the dev and the team that are making a masterpiece
The defense has no objection your Honor.

Top notch NTR game. If it continues, it'll probably be a GOAT contender.

Great artwork. Solid writing. Good attention to detail as a parody. The use of sound assets is a particularly nice touch.

If you like Phoenix Wright, you'll like it. Even if you never played it, you'll probably still like it if you like slow corruptions and mysteries. You also don't have to wait forever for smut because other characters are already corrupted.

Personally, this is my favourite type of NTR: slow burn corruption and discovery/mystery NTR with plenty of clues that the character misinterprets or rationalizes away but that the player gets to enjoy. It's heavy on the voyeurism and the naive obliviousness rather than just being cruel or demeaning and humiliating to the MC. More about pleasure than being sadistic/masochistic.

Can't wait to see more.

If you like Ace Attorney, you will appreciate what this game is doing. It's very faithful to the source material and includes nice references to the games. If you have not played Ace Attorney, you can still enjoy it, but I think this game ends up being best played after having played the games it is parodying.

I’d say that the game is great Great hands down perfect nsfw adaptation it’s a must play to get you into the series or if your a fan with humor and great art and hope for even better content in the future.

You can tell this a fan project primarily motivated by a huge love of the series. The game is chock filled to the brim with lots of references only die-hard fans of the series would remember, and it's clear a lot of effort went into the characters and art for this. The spritework really brings back the nostalgia factor, and that makes this project even more amazingThis is a labor of love truly, and the tracker system is a really fun take on this genre of game.

I look forwards to seeing what the future holds for this game!

not much sexual content to speak of yet, but i like the start. i have to admit i'm not the target audience for this game and i don't like the NTR direction it's heading in, but i'm going to try and keep an open mind, i liked this enough to play the next update when it comes out.

As a fan of the original games, this is really good. The story makes sense (for a porn parody), art fits very well with the original sprites, and the characters sound exactly as they should. Hope this goes far.

[no spoilers]

Absolutely cracked parody. The Developer is clearly a big fan of the original series as the attention to detail is clear. The dialogue and humour are extremely accurate to the original series and the pacing works nicely. I've always hoped that someone made a semi-decent parody of AA and this blew my expectations out the water. I'm glazing the fuck out of this but it's actually deserved. I hope we get multiple sequels.

Dev. If this becomes another great parody that gets abandoned after a couple updates then I WILL find you.

I never played the original games , but I can tell that a lot of effort has been put in to make the art , dialouge and gameplay similar to the original. Its still in demo , but if it keeps going like this , I think it has great potential.

This is a great porn parody: it captures the original games spot-on, both in terms of graphics, gameplay and writing. Not a lot of sexual content yet (mostly just nudity so far), but it's still early.

Steer clear if you can't stand NTR.

It's a visual novel style game (much like the real Ace Attorney games) which is focused on the investigation phase of the original games.
You go around, talk to people, collect evidence and then "break psyche locks" through evidence to progress.
This game has a lot of optional content (mostly riddles, extra content focusing on collecting cards for side characters). It's really interesting since you actually need to look around and actually notice clues to find these secrets. The progression of the game is really nice and it's not a brainless game where you can just spam skip and progress instantly. You actually need to read the text and put at least 2 and 2 together.
Beside the cards (which are just pictures) the game has excellent animations of the characters. There is some extremely beautiful spritework present here and this looks so good that these characters actually feel canon to me.... The sexy poses (which are obviously not in the original games) all make perfect sense and they feel so real. This is so close to the Ace Attorney games that I, as an Ace Attorney fan, was extremely excited while playing. You can also tell that this was made by a real fan of the games. The characters all behave like they do in the games which helps the immersion.
The main "gimmick" is that you can "spy" or "spectate" on what Maya does while you investigate. It's a relatively fast progression from day 1 to 2 and things escalate rather quickly.
The first day was just a small introduction but after reaching day 2 the real game starts and you need to investigate quite a few locations, solve riddles and to talk to quite a few people.
This is one of the few games where I have extremely high hopes for the final version. Since the dev finished his first game I think we are in for a treat here.
Overall this game is awesome and I hope the dev gets the support he deserves.
