Maybe a five star review should be raving about a game but this review won't be. Really, the review for this game is based on the fact that the game delivers on everything it promises.
It's not the deepest plot, but it's plot driven with a fun story. The characters are hardly the type you'll get deeply invested in, but they're fun and likeable, with their own elements of humour (Esxea's gentle simplicity made me smile a few times). The lighthearted dialogue through the game was just great fun.
It's not a brother sim where you grind through stats. There was one "boss fight" I had to repeat early on for a little extra xp but otherwise it's a simple tactical game where you assign "enemies" (various creatures wanting to bang) to your girls in order to get them off within a time limit. Nothing complicated, but makes for a bit of entertaining button clicking gameplay.
The artwork is nice. I'm more of a real porn guy I can get into 2d graphics when the mood hits me and this got me in the mood. I enjoy little bits of attention to detail, particularly that unless you go home and shower/sleep the girls will continue to be plastered with the white stuff through the dialogue scenes.
Some games try to have big plots or lots of stat building, and this is more of a straight line to the finish. No choices to make story-wise either.
But, as I opened with, if you buy into the first few scenes then the game has a persistent quality that will ensure you keep enjoying up to the finish. Given how many games start alright and turn into a drag, or have downtime somewhere in the middle, this is a real strongpoint of Queen's Brothel.
Don't leap into QB expecting the finest porn game you ever played, but expect a consistently enjoyable playthrough. For all the promising and ultimately disappointing games out there, I think it's worth giving strong scores to ones with so few flaws.
