And for the love of god, please don't add 5 girls in your game like every shitty western ntr / blackmail dev. All you need is one or two.
Personally, I disagree about this. If an adult game only has 1 female character, it's often an instant skip for me. Not just adult game, but porn, or manga. The more, the merrier.

Normally I only make a post when I have a sizeable list of criticisms and suggestions for an otherwise interesting game, but not this time. My only complaint is how little there is to enjoy. The art obviously stands out for how unique and well done it is. I'm also quite glad that we get some action this early on. There are too many female protag games that started off good but opted for a "slow burn" style that never went anywhere. The game also immediately sets itself above most, if not all, other games involving blackmail by giving the player actual control over the character as well as genuine stakes for the blackmail in question. It is amazing how many blackmail games have the weakest excuse for an unskippable scene,

"Ha, I've taken a naughty picture of you! If you don't want me to put it on the internet, you'd better become my sex slave!"

"Well, I guess I have no choice."

Yet here we are, with troops threatening to burn down this woman's house if they aren't allowed to rape her daughters, and we actually have different choices for how to react to and handle the situation. If only other games of this type put in half the effort, maybe I wouldn't hate the entire blackmail genre.

One last detail, I like that we aren't stuck with constant exposition dumps explaining every faucet of these character's personalities. Good world building can give you an idea of a character by their actions and how people react to them.

All the volume controls were turned down when I started the game.
The voice volume was controlled by the "Sound volume" slider, not the "Voice volume" slider as you'd expect.
Like Lorric17 said, the voice volume slider doesn't work.

If I have the Voice volume slider all the way down, I shouldn't hear any voice acting at all. It means I only want to hear ambient sounds... sound effects, background music (controlled by the Music slider), etc.

I hate running into this problem in games. They do it all the time with orgasm sounds etc not being controlled by the Voice slider like they should be. But in this case, it's the actual voice in actual speech, not just moaning etc.

I play a lot of Japanese blackmail / ntr games. I would say almost every single one, including visual novels, that are top selling, do not have more than 2 characters. It seems like a winning formula for them. I believe that devs who make these kind of games do not have the capacity nor time to create 4-5 well built charecters

It will be monthly update for our main game, this is kind of a side story that we did during the overhaul period of the main game

3. Effect on Others - The legionaries stare at her glistening neck line, tracing the shape of her supple breasts, imagining what wonders lies beneath the white toga.
Some good stuff there, although this wouldn't fit the character of the legionnaires depending on what sort of men they are. Are they sophisticated men that appreciate the beauty of a woman (and thus unlikely to want to force them) or are they brutes looking to satisfy their sexual urges?

If the latter than something like this might be more appropriate.

The legionnaires imagine wrapping one hand around her neck while the other gropes her unblemished breasts just before they rip her white toga off her body.

I agree with Sapoo, by the way, im really waiting for the next updates. I really love roman themed games.
