RPGM - Completed - The Maiden, the Butler, and the Witch [v1.0.1] [PEACH CAT / Kagura Games]

*Details/Gameplay.
//Quick intro tells us about the beginning of the story.
\\Can name the female lead and her butler.
//Black/Red books. They act like sex log, one for combat harassment and the other for out of combat.
\\Purity bar. Which you can demolish to turn her into a massive slut, or keep it intact.
//Game offers easy access to "suicide-pills" for defeat scenes.
\\Game offers to enable/disable notifying you about an incoming boss battle.
//Game has sex stats. They show you how many times you did this or that, you naughty person~
\\Plenty of interactive objects in the game, female lead will comment on some of them.
//Butler-kun is a perv who enjoys EVERYTHING that has to do with the female lead.
\\For the weirdos who are into cock-and-ball torture, the virgin run seem to be possible.
//Night and day mode. Some fun things can be found only at night~
\\Good corruption pace.
//This game offers plenty of choices, you will often be asked whether to allow this or that to happen to the female lead.
\\New Game+ is offered.


*Combat.
//RPGM. With fairly simple combat configuration.
\\Sexual harassment during combat has an effect on combat performance, positive AND negative.
//Can find restoration pentacle in the combat area near the boss, those will restore your hp/mp.
\\Sexual harassment (and sexual actions in general) will permanently empower female lead's magic power.
//Ctrl key to skip combat animation.
\\Can buy permanent power-ups to enhance your stats.
//Butler-kun has an interesting mechanic where if you fill up his TP (throb points apparently lol) to the max by harassing the female lead, he will unleash his degeneracy and likely one-shot all enemies. Then he will harass or fuck (fuck seem to be only possible if you allowed him to fuck her in events) female lead again to calm down his boner. What a chad.


*Art/Sex.
\\Cute medium-tier art, a bit low res.
//Game offers to change butler's facial art. Likely to make it easier to self-insert.
\\Game offers to enable/disable sexual harassment of the female lead during combat. (I don't recommend disabling this.)
//Destructible clothes.
\\Game offers to enable/disable auto-repair of the female lead's clothes before fully-clothed events.
//Cross-sectional view in sex scenes, and player is able to enable/disable it.
\\Female lead will react if you attempt to take off her clothes.
//Expressive art.
\\Butler-kun has 'harassment' skills, and yes you CAN and probably will use them on the female lead.
//Female lead has various costumes available for her to find and try out.
\\Female lead has standing model. (Non-permanent, can regulate display length in the settings.)
//No animation.
\\Game will notify you if you had already seen some scene.
//Exhibitionism mode only after you defeat the big baddy.


*Sound.
//Pretty nice fantasy (and other) ambient, good area variety.
\\Game offers to turn music on/off during h-scenes.
//Hold shift to regulate sound in the settings by 10% instead of one.
\\Has sex sound effects, and player is able to enable/disable them. (Convenient, since they're rather low quality.)
//Most of the music playing during combat is rather generic, likely default rpgm.
\\Not voiced.
//Sound is broken in some places(rare), it will be loud as fuck despite your settings. So probably best to roll with your system settings.


*Translation Quality.
Kagura.


*Hints.
\\Press F1 to access basic RPGM configuration.
//Press F12 to reset the game.
\\Press ALT+ENTER to switch to full-screen mode.
//No mouse support.
\\Fast movement is enabled by default.
//Ctrl key to skip text.
\\Save often, the game sometimes can bug. (Rarely.)
//Ctrl sometimes can be a little wonky, press enter and then Ctrl again right after to fix.
\\Some NPC's offer useful info, so go on and talk to them.
//A bunch of consumables are hidden everywhere, happy treasure hunting~
\\CG room unlocks after you defeat the big baddy.
//Defeating slime boss is possible, you need level6 and a potion or two then simply use Heal2 and normal attack.
This boss provides a ton of exp and a powerful weapon, he's probably one of the secrets in this game.


*Afterword.
Rather well-made game.
Definitely deserves more attention.
Gotten a bit tired of seeing Legato stalk the female lead absolutely everywhere, but it was still no big deal overall.
A bit more tiresome was the female lead herself actually, since in any sexual situation she constantly keeps whining: 'Noo~ Dooon't~ Stooop~' and so on. She keeps this up even when her purity is pretty much non-existent.
Still, there are plenty of scenes where she acts like a proper slut should - moaning loudly and appreciatively!
So all is well. Have fun~

I really enjoy playing this game and according to me, it deserves a higher ranking.

It brought a nice relief in the form of "harassment system " which is quite unique in comparison with other games and made the grind bearable (especially toward the end of the story) and also made this game fun to play.

Art is great according to me.

So I can only recommend this game.

Also hope that more games from Peach Cat get translated. Because this is a prove that they are making good games.

It's ok, but pretty repetitive. The game can be completed in a few hours but it gets very grindy if youre after the harassment skills you get from leveling up.

the story is fine, i do wish they has slightly more believable characters and genuinely fleshed them out.

The gameplay is pretty simple and basic. the setup is you go through various dungeons, unlocking towns as you go through. Each town has 2 side-job events.

all in all, its fine. not the best. you will miss nothing much if you pass on this one.

Played the GoG version. I'd give it 2.5 if I could, but I can't so I rounded down since I was skipping events and combat before I'd even reached the final dungeon. A lot of systems the dev introduces would be interesting if they had been looking to make a game-game, but instead this falls squarely into what you would expect from a corruption-themed rpgm h-game with a female protagonist. If you like those you'll probably still like this, but if you were waiting for a game where the protagonist could shove a lightning bolt down the molester's throat then this ain't it.

Good:
- While a lot of scenes are forced, but you can opt out of sex so virgin runs are still possible.
- Irina's thighs are thiccer in the CGs than in her standing art
- The game uses an encounter-based system so you can avoid battles rather easily. You can always run from mobs even if you do get into battle.
- Maps are filled with treasure and tend to loop back on themselves, so you'll rarely need to do major backtracking if you don't want to explore and there'll be lots of goodies if you do want to explore. Treasure chests are also color coded, so you can happily ignore a chest you see in the corner of the screen if it's not blue.
- There's a full gallery unlock after you beat the game so you don't have to hunt down every scene or lose to every boss.

Bad:
- Legato's antics are supposed to be humorous, but instead of merely teasing or some harassment it's often just sexual assault. I really didn't get the feeling he actually cared for Irina, though his "typical male in a h-game with a female protagonist" look and actions certainly don't help.
- There are a bunch of costumes, but you can only wear them around town.
- The skills you get are generally boring, partially because you'll beat the game around level 23 (mowing down everything in your path) but skills are learned all the way up to level 71.
- Bosses are whatever the fantasy equivalent of a bullet sponge is. You don't need any tactics (not that any tactics are really available); you just attack and attack and attack and heal and attack some more until they die.
- You have to lose to bosses if you want to see their scenes, but you'll only be losing on purpose. Aside from the first boss, who is immune to magic. You still have to lose on purpose though since the fight can go on for way too long if you go in thinking the combat in this game is actually important.
- You learn a lot of spells, but they're all the same aside from being a different element. You eventually learn some status effects too... but bosses are immune and mobs die in 1-2 hits anyway.
- A lot of scenes are locked behind defloration, but your only real options in the main game are losing to a boss on purpose or giving in to one of Legato's many sexual assaults.
- When working lewd jobs you need to hold ctrl to skip through events since choosing to not see repeats doesn't count as working and you won't get paid.
- There's no way to permanently shut Legato down.
- Theoretically you'd want to balance Legato's harassment moves with the MP drain they inflict on Irina, but you get so little TP and battles are so short you'll largely just ignore Lagato's special attacks blast enemies with Irina's spells. You can eventually buy an accessory which increases Legato's TP gain... but it increases it too much, so now you'll probably be de-equiping it often if you don't want the trip to be interrupted by yet more of his sexual assaults.

Medium:
- Even though all the witches are horny, you can't initiate sex with any of them. One gets involved if you lose to her familiar, but again, you'll only be losing on purpose.
- You can only afford one or two new pieces of equipment per town, but there's always a chance that what you buy will be immediately made obsolete by what you find in the next dungeon.
- Irina gets stronger when she does a lot of lewd stuff... but you don't need the stat points so this isn't really a system designed to make you choose between strength and purity.
