Ren'Py - The Headmaster [v0.16.3] [Altos and Herdone]

The person who laughs and jokes about The Headmaste may he not meet in person. As good and humble as that he is with new people, one of them is to me, who at first I was a fan of him, he could even become friends. Everyone who has met him must agree with me

This game is still in an early stage of development but it already has content for a few hours. The animations are very good, though there are very few sex scenes. It focuses on spanking girls for discipline, earning money, convincing your fellow teachers of your ways and discovering the map. The story is also decent. Can't wait to check back in 2 years or so, when there is more content, to play it again.

been subbed on patreon over a year and thats honestly the most glowing review I could give any game definitely worthy of a download and test run in my opinion. altos and herdone know how to make a quality game

The game starts with a broadside, which made me skeptical at first. But the beginning makes sense, a good exposition to a really great game.

I just started playing without looking at the walkthrough. That may not have been efficient, but it was a lot of fun. Sandbox as it should be. There is a lot to discover, the characters are finely worked out and some scenes are simply brilliant (Miss Potts in the office, the water pistol fight, the school visit in the classroom etc.). Very woll done.

I also like the lovingly designed map. A weak point in many sandbox games.

This game is good but a kind boring, because its a bdsm game, a spank girls ass game, its cool but a kind boring levl up all the submission girls, but it's a good game, with sound effects and good cgs. 7/10.

Let me start with saying that I very rarely write any reviews, so this is the first time I write a review of a game at all, of any sort. But I feel I have to, the game is that good and it has given me so much satisfaction… Of the 100+ adult games I have played hitherto, this certainly belongs to the top five, perhaps even in the very top. And I don’t even like spanking (well perhaps a little smack on a bare bottom for educational purposes would be fun) or pain... That is how good the game is.

So what is to like? Very sexy young (and some older) girls of course. All very cute and good looking but otherwise not the boring all supersize breasted shaved, superhorny stereotypes that are so common in adult games. The variety in bodies and characters is very exciting. I don’t care very much how they are done, but the result is certainly great.

The school setting is great with the natural abundance of girls, and so is the rational for the girls to behave the way they do. The settings, being school games, classroom events, school performances, the magazine…, they are all so greatly done with a lot of sexy details and super-exciting twists.

The protagonist, who is driven not (primarily) to fuck all the girls but to train and develop them for their own good. And who is NOT a young boy with a supersized penis living together with his (step- of course) sisters and -mother).

The gameplay is great, with very little grinding, and what I especially like is that one really doesn’t need a guide, the dialogues are in most cases entirely sufficient to guide you. It is just to play along. Surely there are some blind alleys, but with the proper saves, those mistakes can be corrected or otherwise just play it again from the beginning. Actually, this is one of very few adult games that can be played again from the start with the same excitement kicking in right from the beginning. The spanking minigames that sets you in control are very sexy (even if don’t like spanking as I already stated above).

The story that takes so many unexpected, and very sexy, turns. The humor that in my view reveals the intelligence and imaginatory capacity of the developers. It is really a world the have created to immerse in.

The developers, that are so very friendly on this site, patreon and Discord, The contribution also of a female developer (Herdone) and their unique collaboration has resulted in an extraordinary adult game. Thank you very much, both of you! And that they give out the game for free after the beta versions is an extra plus.

I hope they will continue with this game for many years to come.

Creative writing, interesting and beautiful characters, all set in a believable world. I really enjoy this game. With the game having enough random events to keep you entertained for quite some time. Keep up the good work!

I don`t play much yet.but this is one of the game that you can actually play using hs engine.
interesting plot but intro is little annoying.
that the only negative.
I can`t judge much but try this i hope you will not regret this.I saw this game for a long time and i ignore it to grow more updates now it was really time to test.

A game unlike the other adult games; amazingly unique.

+ Has a great setting and a story promising almost unlimited potential
+ Nice, reasonable pace where being patient is rewarding but never boring
+ Excellent range of realistically written interesting women, a plethora of personalities
+ Likeable graphics and also animated sex with sounds
+ Unique gameplay mechanics (managing the college & punishing the girls)

My personal favorite, 5 out of 5

Review for game played until v0.13.2: Despite at first I had some doubts when the game began (I almost left it at the very beginning, the intro was a bit too long and not that engaging, and sadly the very first playable part is not that good), but after the first effort I was absolutely surprised about how interesting the story is, fun, engaging, complex, the way the characters in the game are portrayed, the quality of the pictures and designs, the erotism in the stories and the porn itself. As a game you feel some challenge there too. The progression is very nicely executed. The UI could be better and some playing aspects could be a bit better explained, but once you get used to it it's not a big deal.

I just finished my first play through of this game. (v0.8.2.1) Though I have to say that the main plot and story line devices borrow VERY heavily off of a certain other game in the genre, the authors have managed to rewrap it lovingly in a new way and perspective that works and becomes something that stands on its own.

Overall gameplay is not TOO grindy, though I felt that towards the end of this update that you were grinding days just to try and get certain events to fire because there was no further content to explore and were just chasing one certain girl's storyline. Since it is more or less a sandbox though, that can be sort of expected.

Render wise, not sure what to say. I am just constantly amazed that authors are able to create visual novels out of the Honey Select Neo Studio engine. I know some people don't like the render style, but they work for me and carry the story along well. The characters don't seem generic and seem to have been fairly well crafted and customized. From personal experience I know it is hard as hell to get a decent looking male character out of that engine, so I am overall impressed at how well they turned out.

The only feedback I would really give to the authors are that some of the game action boxes (like in the water gun fight mini-game) could be a little larger or maybe not moved to the edge of the screen. If you are using a large monitor for example, it would have been nice to have them grouped closer together in a menu or something instead of having to look from one edge of the screen to another to find the target actions. There was at least once I had to do a rollback because I simply didn't notice - "oh, they put a dodge way over there" sort of thing on the screen. There were a few times too where some actions might not have been noticed or become aware to the player simply because there are no obvious call outs (eg: target-able items on screen look like any other object, so could be overlooked. For instance the bookshelf and wall safe in the Headmaster's office you only notice if you mouse over the entire screen looking for things you may be able to click on and may miss if you don't spend time running your mouse all over the screen).

Overall though, it is a decent game. I look forward to playing more updates as they are released.

This is one of my favorite games on the site. There are plenty of girls which you can pursue with a great progression line for each of them. The teacher student trope is a great one, and this game brings it to life.

Good game.
Excellent story pacing.
I don't care much for Honey Select, but this is an example of how it can be done right! There are only 2 or 3 other HS devs that I like, now it's one more.

Only 4 instead of 5 stars, because the setting is super ridiculous. A society thatembraces slavery of young adults?! Hrmpf. I hope the dev/author will make another game in the future that has a more realistic setting, because the writing style is reallynice!

Nice work so far, please more =)
I am not enjoying S&M usually so this is an unexpected find for me. If the mind "control" or "brainwash" is done well it can be quite entertaining and somewhat beliavable but this is very hard imo. This game does it well enough.

Wow... Just... Wow... I can't freaking wait to see how well and thorough this game ends up playing out, amazing job! One of my top favorites for sure. I love the point system, the gradual escalation of events, the pervertedness! I love 'hot/pervert-teacher-rules-them-all' games, and this is a very clear explanation as to why!

It's a realy good game with a lot of fun while playing it.

Good animations and graphic. No question, seen better but here it would be nice but no need for. Works very well just like it is.

Good and even functional menu for stats and tasks. No walkthough needet, you get all informations you need.

Grinding is part of the game, but in a very good way. Not too easy, no messy grind - thats very well done.

And the story? Funny, sexy with lots of believable characters you have to discipline most of the time.

This is a game where i don't miss anything.

I really like how the protagonist isn't overly perverted like it's very often the case in other Ren'Py games.
I think graphics could be improved, although its cool that the game works on weaker computers too. Overall it's a great game. I'm looking forward to new updates!

Good:
- Very unique and different from others with punishment system aswell as MC perspective. Not your usual MC. Has his justifications and thoughts for his actions.
- Slow burn of finding out the world and characters and there is a clear character progression. Not just straight jump on dick.
-Very psychological rather than visual.


Cons:
-Abit clunky
-Poor graphics.
- Poorly designed girls.
-Much more can be done even with honey select engine.

But of course, the gameplay and story can make up for bad graphics. Definitely not asking too much from honey select mods but there is plenty of room for improvement.

Wonderful game, will great graphics and animation. The story line is one of the best I've come across looking forward to how the story line will continue from here on out. Love the fact that there is twin REDHEADs in this hope they will be in it more!!!

Really good game. The story is funny and interesting, sex scenes are hot. Some things can get a bit buggy but nothing too bad. Can wait for new updates of the game, there is so much that could be added on.
