    Disclaimer that i didn't play too far into the game because i got sick of the nonsense early on.

    This game suffers from a fundamental problem in that you, the human playing this game, know what you're getting into but the in-game character you play as has no idea. For me, this is a fatal flaw in the game design because you have to pretend to be oblivious just like your in-game character. Secretary makes that difficult to do because everything i've encountered so far is obvious and predictable. It was my first time playing and i know what's in that contract without my character being able to read it. I know the real purpose of the "therapy" sessions before going to the first visit. I already know the storyline with the apartment manager after the introductory interactions. I haven't read any spoilers, it's just that it's so obvious what the intentions are. The game depends on you going along with it and pretending to be dumb, but i don't find that enjoyable because there's no feeling of discovery. Repeated playthroughs are a different story but the first one shouldn't be so obvious.

    I also found Secretary to be unnecessarily tedious. Is it really necessary for your apartment to have five separate locations instead of just making the apartment a single location and giving you all the interactions at once? I don't know, maybe there's something in the story later on that needs the separation but it's really annoying early on. What's the point of the wardrobe when it's far more convenient to just keep everything in your inventory? Why can my character only masturbate in the living room? Why are the video games separate from the computer as if slightly old computers can't play games? There's just so many unnecessary extra clicks going on for what seems to be no good reason. On top of this, there's too much reading relative to interactions. I feel like the writing is too bloated, detailing things that don't really matter and making dialog too wordy.

    I felt that Secretary didn't give me enough control over my character and was even inconsistent with behavior. My character was in the lingerie shop and he refused to buy anything despite already wearing the ex-girlfriend's underwear. The game randomly made my character forget what the boss wanted to eat for lunch--if you're going to do things like this, at least tell me why my character forgot (too much arousal/stress or whatever), don't just do it randomly when my character isn't a dumb forgetful bimbo. I got to the first weekend after becoming a SISSI and there was nothing to do except have my character sleep or play video games. It just feels so limited and restrictive because it wants you to play at a predetermined pace and i don't have the freedom to play how i want.

    I actually have more complaints but they're not my main criticisms and i've probably written enough already. The biggest complement i want to mention is that it lets you play online instead of requiring a download. I wish all HTML-based games would do that.

    I thought Degrees of Lewdity was the best HTML text based CYOA game online, until I found Secretary. They are entirely different games, with Secretary very "Vanilla" in the sense that there are no non-consensual scenes. Even though everything is coerced, you retain your degree of agency. There are no bad ending / nasty outcomes. However, the writing is the 2nd best i've seen in many HTMLs, excellent writing. Almost 100% bug free. Very free form and sandbox-ish, despite having quite a linear plot.

    All these criticisms aside, Secretary is super duper polished and wonderfully crafted. A wonderful game for people who enjoy this genre.

    The graphics and the interface are very well designed. The story might be somewhat interesting, if not falling in a very cliché forced sissification narrative where all the odds are against the MC. I know this game is very popular among its genre. But it has too much text for me. I might say that I'm not against text based fantasy games, they can be really sexy, but man... they need to be well writen. I feel that here are tons of paragraphs that doesn't add a bit to the interest of the events, a bunch of text that could be synthesized in two or three phrases, and after like two hours of reading overexplained Mojojos like narrative I started to get tired of it, and of course it doesn't turns me on. I give, 3 starts because it looks like theres a lot of work invested in the developement, but its boring for me.

    Very good game, I started following it a few updates ago.
    The game gives you various choices about how to get on with the story, even a fair bit of freedom(even though you have litte choice other than becoming a sub, one way or the other).
    What struck me as cool is that it also has a lot of personality and style, which makes it unique and immersive.
    I really like it, I didn't left any reviews before because the game was fairly short.
    Try it yourself, it's worth the time.

    The best html and text based game on this site in my opinion. I'd list pros and cons but it would just look silly having almost no cons, biggest one being how you have to click for some things that could be a bit more automated? But there are many games that handle it way worse so its not a deal breaker.

    My writing skills sucks, so I can't explain how good the writing is without sounding like a pretentious prick, so just trust me. Scenes are pretty hot, its not cringe sonic fanfiction writing and it goes into enough details (there is a surprising amount of text games that drop stuff like 'she does handjob, he cums, sex ends lol' none of that shit here).

    The graphics that accompany the game are a very welcome addition, just putting in photos is not the worst thing in the world, but nothing beats custom graphics that all follow the same art style. The avatar system is honestly really well done. But keep in mind it is still a text game, expect a lot of text.

    There is a wide selection of fetishes, and you can actually opt-out of the ones you do not like, but it is still a sub based game, if you expect dom content, there is barely any, turn around for now.

    The story actually avoids usual staples of the genre (abusive GF, cuckolding from said GF, rapey bosses etc) and even makes fun them in a clever way, which is pretty refreshing, even for me who actually doesn't mind some of those tropes. And for the first time in forever I am actually interested in a porn game story, it's not just means to an end.

    Choices actually matter yay, you can pick your love interest, reasons for your character to participate in the whole story (which influences scenes and clothing you get). Characters aren't just fetish flags either, you can change their behavior which will impact the scenes you get.

    Feminization and Humiliation is not really my cup of tea. However, I really enjoyed my time playing Secretary (which rely heavily on the two, espacially in the relation between the MC and his boss).


    While the story has no big flaws (I just regret the randomness of certain events when it comes to characters), the gameplay is grindy (like in many porn games), the inventory management is a mess and finding the various threshold of your skills a pain in the ass.


    But do not despair : you will find cheats in this forum, and if you open the .html file with notepad+ you will find informations about the thresholds (and if i can do something like that with a computer, anybody can). So all in all, a good game about sissyfication and various fetish.

    The game has a fairly sizeable amount of content, with well written scenes and an interesting setting. It covers a decent range of fetishes, which just so happens to fit perfectly into my own personal taste. To me, the only downside is the admittedly large amount of clicking required throughout each in-game day.
    Five stars from me for my favorite HTML game on this site.

    Really like the vibe off this game! Well written and fresh. Some actions are a bit tidious but nothing major. If you like sissification games you must give this a try. Would me nice with a bit more images/animations as the game is a bit textheavy.

    I really love this game, i like style, characters, but i think there is need to add videos or animation during sexual activities, it would make this game perfect, if this will be added then i rate this game 5 star, but now only 4

    I like a lot about this game but it's so incredibly tedious it drives me insane. The boss character should get run over and Isekai'd into Minecraft or some shit. Really? I keep some clothes in my house you visit and I have to throw them out because you feel like it? Bitch what? Maybe I wanna crossdress, ignore my tits I don't care it's my property. It's aggravating how insipidly she says everything, I get the whole appeal of this game is to be a subby bitch but it's so clumsily handled on her end even when you take the "voluntary" route she's just forcing herself on you. I get the whole backstory with her last secretary getting taken by someone above and she wants to rekindle that but she's the type of person you stop engaging entirely if they get that annoying.
    If this game would open up and just let you do the whole transition thing on your own without her forcing shit on you and instead rewarding you as you come along on your own without her inconsistent garbage rules that'd be coo' and I'd be giving this game a 5/5. As it is, because she's such a major annoyance it's at best a 3 and yeah yeah the whole game is meant to be a sissy fantasy but if that's the case then remove the "voluntary" route instead of falsely advertising that you could just do things on your own. Honestly, you could genuinely remove 90% of her interactions and it'd be a better game for it. I like every other character, even the bimbo maid and I usually don't like the whole bimbo thing, they're far more interesting and a lot less abrasive. A lot more supportive too, as opposed to twisting your wrist at every turn like she is and hovering around constantly.
    So yeah. 3/5 because the boss is so badly written and annoying, every other interaction, stuff at work, stuff at the gym, things with side characters like Alex and the shrink, all nice. The boss needs a rewrite to account for more playstyles and because of how sparsely the content is spaced out there should be more options to skip time. It takes 7 weeks for you to get anywhere with Alex only for there to be nothing at the end, which would be fine because the game's unfinished but holy crap why would you write an entire DnD campaign and end it with literally nothing? That's crazy to me.

    It's a game I guess? Given the release schedule, I'm glad I'm not a patron, though. Really grindy too. I mean REALLY grindy. Way more than I can take, anyway. Seems like the grind gets worse the further in you get, too. It's all kinda trite and contrived, too. With good porn games, you come for the porn and stay for the story. This one is just porn. There's no narrative or character development here. Just a bunch of cardboard supporting cast and a protagonist that's nothing more than a vehicle for the same ol' fetishization over and over again. Gets really boring really fast.

    There are many better games out there than this one. The community surrounding the game is super toxic, too, which is a huge turn-off. If you enjoy the game in spite of its flaws, stay away from the game's discord and author, or they will be spoil it for you.

    Secretary is an odd one for me. It's mostly well done with interesting character sprites, verbose writing that doesn't waste much of the reader's time (a problem that many of these titles fall into), and a somewhat interesting premise. I've started playing this game years ago and have indulged countless hours into it yet despite all these things I hate it immensely. It's so frustrating watching something with potential fall into the same pitfalls that all of these feminization porn stories fall into.

    I have many problems with it but let's start with the big one. This is not an involuntary game and there is no path to redemption. Forget the forced route. It's the worst offender of not being involuntary. Seriously, how do you go from somewhat normal prudish man to cock loving slut that will love wearing the sissy underwear after a light spanking session without chemicals or brainwashing? It's a pure fetish game that seems like it's going to go the way of a noire story in which by the end of this TF journey, the secretly always receptive character will have fallen into the clutches of an all powerful evil corporation. It's a linear progression that is hidden in plain sight towards a game over. It literally stops hiding it once you leave probation as all four paths filter into the same stream. It may have stopped hiding it earlier if you started the cafe job and noticed that you were earning more in a day than you do per week than working at the main job. At that point my enjoyment completely craters. There is no winning condition - just look at the achievements. Not one of them involve fighting back. No, you can't quit and work at the cafe. Your choices lead to either a quick game over (you get fired, you quit, etc.) or your character becomes the perfect sissy secretary who falls in love with their tormentors regardless of your wishes. Another Candy. Another Bambi. How heckin wholesome!

    All of these games feature the same protagonist. It's always a mentally handicapped/oblivious person that was, unbeknownst to them, in the closet but with a subtle or not so subtle prod (through blackmail usually) will turn from an ugly duckling (read "man") into a beautiful bimbo swan. Forget the blackmail and abuse, it was for the character's own good, they just didn't know better. They will always have the best orgasm of their life from their first anal stimulation... or having their nipples played with... or getting spanked... or smelling/touching/tasting a cock. You get it already.

    I understand the writer's perspective, if the character was reasonable then you would actually have to be creative to get to the porn and telling a reasonable story isn't the goal. The porn is the goal and everything else around it is at a far lower priority and the sad thing is that this can be done well. It just isn't. If the character didn't start out enjoying it then the story would be too dark and turn into full on rape. Nevermind that the game has rape in the physical sense and the mental sense (the all powerful hypno that ignores willpower (an underused and under baked mechanic)). This trope is so tired and so lazy considering that even I can come up with reasons why a character would do things they don't enjoy to reach a goal/fight against their oppressors and I'm your average idiot on the internet. I could have even tied in the willpower mechanic. If the character enjoys it like I stated, which they do, then they don't need to be forced and if they don't need to be forced the story doesn't work. But like I said, the story is just an excuse to get to the porn but if the porn is the only reason to boot up the game then it doesn't need to be interactive.

    The stat progression is a perfect example of the dev's goals for the game. If you want to raise stats like strength or stamina then you must engage in cock lust with gym bros or do bimbo classes. Grinding is not enough, it's all gated by how degenerate the character is which is great for a story where the porn is the priority above a story or gameplay even though it really stretches the bounds of credulity. No one and nothing in the world is remotely realistic which is my other problem with the game. Everything revolves around sex and the player character's coming out as a sissy (even to their friends who see nothing unusual about all these changes going on with the protagonist occurring in less than a month after starting a new job).

    My last problem with it is that the mysteries that are peppered around the game all serve to further drive the fetish. For example, the psychologist drops various hints that she is being paid to corrupt the player by the company. This all leads nowhere and the player character will never have a chance to think about or rebut the nonsense advice that the psychologist gives him. He always agrees with the psychiatrist's obviously slanted diagnosis. The secondary characters that undergo transformation at the same time as the player character illicit no response from the player character. Not even a raised eyebrow as he watches a woman turn into a hucow and a man turn into a woman like himself. I feel like I'm playing Chaz from No Man's Sky.
    The update that introduced the black box (0.7.6.2) didn't improve my outlook.
    You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.

    I suppose the fault was on me. I was looking for a game with a cyberpunk story. A game where the player character walks into the lion's den and through their kinky tribulations may come out changed but still solve the mystery or come out on top like Johnny Mnemonic or, Tales of the Drunken Cowboy or, any other cyberpunk story. As it stands it looks like you'll just end up playing yet another victim of the dystopia. But it's okay. After all, the character enjoys being a brainless bimbo.

    Still, it's a moderately good porn experience. The style is amazing even if the world building and characters are extremely weak (I'm sitll not sure what the company even sells and all the characters are just walking billboards for various fetishes). It's just not for me. Play it if you're into gender dysphoria, fetishizing the mentally disabled (if I'm in a bad mood) or the oblivious (if I'm feeling better about the game), and cock lust but don't if you're into good endings, smart reasonable characters, or mystery. For now, I'm done with it. 4/5 because style goes a long way.

    That was the first one i played because of a sissification tag and i wasn't disappointed.
    The story is well written and the choices during your gameplay will changes your relationships with the other characters and have an impact on how the story will go. The artworks are also very good and originals.
    i can't recommend it enough so just try it you might like it ;)

    Great game! Quite well made, with a lot of polish. Provides a lot of flexibility to the player to try different approaches that pay of with different punishments and rewards. One of the better feminization/sissy games.

    A really awesome game. Hopefully it stays on that straight and femdom path. I really like that you can be forced to become a sissy and you can be forced to do other kinks. Hopefully it is kept that way, continues with a lot of femdom and leaves out gay fetishes.

    One of my favorite games by far. It's so well written, extremely erotic, and it just keeps getting better and better with every update. The interface is clean and if you are a fan of these types of games it's absoultly top notch and it's well worth the download and your time.

    The game is really good. The scenes are very hot and as of right now (v0.5.0.2) there's quite a lot of them. The amount of planned kinks is respectable too, although most of them have not been implemented yet. In the current version, there's sissification, femdom, humiliation, a little bit of exhibitionism, bimbofication, cum eating, oral, pegging, one watersports scene, and some other that I can't recall right now or haven't come across in my playthrough. The writing is definitely a strong point of this title and every scene is of a suitable length. A nice addition to the game are drawings of the characters; they look really good and make this game stand out among other titles that only use stolen gifs and webms.

    I would give 5 stars if it wasn't for the interface that is just annoying. More than half of the time is spent clicking unnecessary options that don't add anything to the gameplay and only lower the enjoyment. To give some examples:
    -during your day in the office sometimes you get asked by your boss to bring her coffee. It isn't a request that you can ignore and there's also nothing interesting about the whole event. You click an option to fetch the coffee and then you bring that coffee back. That's 2 clicks that serve no purpose other than to remind the player that they work as a secretary; something that everyone playing this game is well aware of. 2 clicks may not seem like much, but if you get interrupted 3 times a day, and there are 5 working days it all starts adding up.
    -there are a foyer and a kitchen in your flat that offer no other options but to leave the house and drink a coffee respectively. Why can't I leave the house directly from any other screen? Even the action of drinking the coffee takes 2 clicks (drink the coffee -> finish drinking the coffee - doesn't that sound just ridiculous?).
    -having to wash your clothes and sex toys every 2 days is a chore. If you decide to clean your sex toys, the plug you're using right now has to be unequipped first... Since you have to open the inventory to do that, that's another 3 clicks.

    It may look like I'm nitpicking, but I'm not. 2 clicks here, 4 clicks there and you have tens of minutes spent doing nothing. If you were to start your day in an optimal way, you would:
    enter bathroom -> take a shower -> return to the bathroom -> kitchen -> drink a coffee -> finish drinking the coffee -> inventory -> put on office clothes -> back -> enter foyer -> exit your flat
    All of that to start your day, and you haven't even reached your work yet. And it could be even longer if you wanted to water your plant as well. Oh and don't forget that there's a small transition between the screens - just to make the whole process just slightly longer and more annoying.

    I definitely recommend this game, but to the dev, please, for the love of God, do something about your interface.

    This game has actual choices, a few paths, and is really promising. As it is now I'd say it's got a nice game system and good art direction. It's got that sythwave style which I find is rare and usually quite good. The humiliation aspect is done fairly well, and the story is fairly grounded, and well done.

    This game has one of the only outright cross dressing themes I could find, and still manage's to have a (if a bit grind heavy) engaging and a fairly original plot. Yes there are things that can be expanded upon, like adding more clothing options and such, but that aside its a fantastic little game. The only somewhat downside I have found so far has been the massive amount of grinding you have to do. All in all, if this game continues being updated, I can easily see it hitting my top 5 list.

    This game does well in the genre of sissification/feminization by having a slow but humiliating path for players towards becomeing completely 'sissified.' It puts the main character in a position where they at first are unsure of how to act an progresses us along the typical feminization path where it is eventually asked if we are doing this because we are forced or doing it because we want to...

    As far as the gameplay, things are basic right now but are very promising. Most of the scenes are written well and there is some good art along with some ok art in there to tantalize as well.
