left out on purpose as it will lock you out of multiple routes otherwise. Also i kinda think in the end if you can persuade your family, lawyer and the judge they'll ignore it when the final hearing is all fleshed out

I presume you mean choosing not to launder the bank's money locking you out of interactions involving the bank manager. I'm pretty sure that using the casino to build up cash isn't going to block anything.

I was just wanting to point out that you can get flush with money early on without needing to push so hard on getting involved with the bank manager as soon as possible.

Since cooperating with the bank manager has a good deal of content with her, and not cooperating with her has nothing, it would be a little BS if content was added later on that was contingent upon not having cooperated with her and we were locked out of it permanently.

Maybe there'll be some option to see it anyway in a non-canon fashion, or they were automatically unlocked in the gallery or something.

being locked outwith andrea would also mean being locked out of threesome with her and some other girls. In any case,atm there is no downside to it, if there is one in the future i'll edit that for sure. For now tho, i'll stick to menbtioning the casino as a way to earn money but that's about it

The gguide is just meant to show all content

I've agreed to help the Bank Manager in only one play though. In all the other saves, the trial ended with the Judge telling me she was aware of the "several illicit things" I never did. Seemed pretty definitive regarding the closure of that path.

The other day, I was wondering, in my quasi-autistic mind: how many clickable objects are there, like the Volks in the parking and the teacher's desk in the classroom?
Turns out you can also click on the stripper pole-dancing on the right side of the screen in the strip club.

Does nothing, but hey, I'm happy

I don't mind a grindy game like this and that not everything is straightforward, but what I don't like in a game like this is not to know how much content you are missing and which character has content left or is there some statistics I am missing? The gallery only shows scenes you found already

How far have you progressed in Lisa's Naughty actions?
When you share a room with her and you ask to jerk off to her, first she watches, then she watches after removing her shirt, etc.

Pretty sure you need to have progressed that quite a bit before you can do something with her when she shares the bed with Lil

type /Pdebug = True, that way when looking at a girls' events you can see the ones 'not yet found' as they were hidden under the debug

Look on the OP, under Extras: there are two different walkthroughs

If you want another approach, here's mine (no cheating money or jobs)

1) First, know that money is tight at the beginning. The best-paying job in the game is money laundering at the bank, so we want to start that as soon as possible. The Bank Manager hands out $1500 on your second visit to her, and later on will offer a proposition to launder money as soon as her opinion reaches 80 (that's when you earn your trust), and you can then start laundering money on your next visit after her proposition.
So, since she doesn't work and Mondays and Wednesdays: your earliest first visit is Tuesday Day 2, and the second visit (with the initial $1500 lump sum) is Thursday, Day 4. If you diligently discuss topics with her every day, you will reach 80 opinion on Tuesday Day 9, and can start laundering money on Thursday, Day 11

1a) The other two OK-paying jobs are (A) being an agent for swimsuit models – for that, you need to actually find a job offer on your phone's browser, which will take 5 tries before the very first one, and many tries after each actual job, and you will need to convince your first model, your mom, who will only accept once her allure (or sex tension) reaches 15; and (B) working at the XShop with Lil, which can start once you've followed her 3 times from school on days that she works (the absolute earliest being Monday, Wednesday, Friday, days 8, 10 and finally 12)
Click to expand...
All good advice, as is what follows, but there is one other thing you can do for money, which is admittedly a tad tedious and exploity: savescum and spam the roulette wheel on the online casino. You can access this the first afternoon (you'll find the casino by job-searching on your phone a few times) and the mini-game doesn't advance in-game time. You can spin up thousands on your first afternoon this way, if you are so inclined.

ETA: Ninja'd by oh45, I see.

Apart from that, your initial steps are almost exactly what I do when I start a new playthrough.
