RPGM - The Office Wife [v0.91 Hotfix1] [J. S. Deacon]

What a pleasant surprise. While this game relies on the usual corruption scenarios that you see everywhere, the pacing, story and characterization really make it stand out.

The characters develop over time, change and have actual depth. The story develops organically and somewhat believably, unlike the pure stupidity of the scenarios you usually face in these games. The NTR path is done well, optional and actually doesn't rely on the usual tropes of the genre. Animations are great quality too.

You can tell this is done by someone that is a writer. So refreshing.

Regarding the grind - while it isn't bad...

- I would not play it without a walkthrough as the trial and error grind is unfun.
- You will still have to go through the same steps everyday that simulates her life and while that works for me, for most it won't be fun. Just a heads up: You need to play about 30days to see everything (0.35) if you do it optimally.

All in all a great game with a quality story without the usual issues that plague RPGM games.

Would give it a 3.5.

pros:
- solid quality/renders
- female mc
- quite sexy girl and quite curvy
- not too boring average guys
- okay locations and good map layout

Cons: (Personally)
- story is strange
- I think mc could look hotter
- some boring stuff
- too many stuff you have to repeat
- renders look good but not great
- hobo is just a joke
- not much to do or explore
- Store guy stuff is interesting but with a broom? Really? Lol

It has potential but atm it’s really average even it’s in a genre (female mc corruption) where you don’t find too much fame wise

Wow this is so much better than I expected. If you love corruption and dont mind a bit of NTR (the guy is more into it than usual), this is the game for you. Also the progression is really steady and constantly leaves you wandering whats next. Finally, the story is, although quite fanatasy rich, way more believable than most games in the genre. One of my favorites

Some other game creators could learn a thing or two from the office wife decent content with each update. Great story everything A+. Cant wait for something to happen between her and the heavy set guy at night

Cons :
1- wish there were other women in the game apart from the MC.
2- The grinding is too much, lots and lots of repetitive scenes, some of them will get a little update along the way and that's another problem. you never know how many times you should repeat something so that maybe some scenes or dialogues change (i.e the bathroom scene at work, the gym, showering at the gym and...)
3- some aspects of the game are pointless, like the lunch thing, i didn't get any scenes from 2 out of the 3 places available for lunch so why not just have 1 ?
4- Maybe it's just me but i always enjoy a "stats" feature in games like this, to keep track of how many times the MC has had sex, cheated, masturbated & etc. although this sits well with this game, we don't have that.

Pros :
1- the artwork is nice, not the best but pretty decent
2- i love the genre, the sharing content with the husband's consent (for the better part of it). i loved the fact that this is not just another wife becoming a whore instantly with a dumb husband who doesn't have a clue. it could be even better if there were other girls or couples and the option of swinging. and if we feel wild let's give the husband a chance to be with other girls in front of the MC.
3- the corruption doesn't happen instantly 'one day a loving wife and next day a whore!' which we see in many games & i think that's lovely.
4- although the story doesn't deserve a noble prize but it creates some mysteries which is quite intriguing. i particularly loved the MC's background story and i wished it could be used a little during the game and not just the beginning.
To summarize this game isn't flawless but it's pretty damn good and hopefully it will get better with each update.

SPOILERS (based on v.35)

My first thought was "another RPGM" nightmare with repetitive grinding leading to handjobs and flashing for weeks. Fortunately, I was wrong.

Let me start by saying, I really appreciate this game, but it's not my thing. That doesn't mean I can't give it a good review, but the last update jumped the shark for me.

Pros:
The story is well written. The basic plot shares a lot of similarities with other corruption games, but it is a semi-fresh take. Regardless, the characters are well written and Stacy seems aware and reasonably intelligent. As the story progress, she is very self aware, despite not being able to stop it, and seems to deal with it as the plot warrants.

Stacy is hot. Well modeled, good outfits and solid renders. Sex content is also very good.

The game is really more cucking than NTR. For purposes of this review, I am defining NTR as cheating on a spouse or a defined bd/gf. In this case, the husband is into his wife messing around with other people. The gray area is that he wants to be part of it and included in it and Stacy does not always tell him everything. So yes, there is eventually some NTR but it is an odd NTR as again, her husband has pretty much given his blessing.

All of this is great. She starts to explore her new self and begins to enjoy certain aspects of it. Between guys in the warehouse all the way up to her boss, she slowly pushes the boundary's.

Cons:
The cons for me started showing up in this latest version. I like strong women. I don't mind that they are slutty or like being treated like a slut in "the bedroom" so to speak, but I prefer when the women have some control and can opt in or out of things. There were times at the end of this update where she really seemed like she was not comfortable and tried be back out but Nate would not let her. Regardless, there are really two big issues for me.

Nate. He is best friends with Jason who has been generous enough to let Nate bang his hot wife. I think there should be some deference given to Jason, but Nate just runs roughshod over his relationship with Jason. I think he takes too many liberties as Jason didn't seem that much of a pushover. I realize this may be part of the story telling as Jason slowly watching his wife become something else, but still, I think Nate should be a bit more thankful and humble with Jason and Stacy.

The main issue, for me, is Stacy is kind of a bad ass. She intimidated the cop and blew up a bus and yet now she is being forced to wear clothes that are waaaayyyy to inappropriate for the office. I mean, regardless of what she is doing in her personally life, she still needs to work, and unless they are going to set her up in her own office and pay her to be the office wife anyone can use throughout the day, I have a hard time with this. I know Stacy is starting not to care about anything, but she is clearly losing control of her life and that is hard for me to understand.

Finally, I would like to see some other women. Her boss has a limited role as well as her deskmate, but that's it. And we hardly see them.

Conclusion
At the end of the day, the story is heading down a path I am not sure I can follow. It started great and for a lot of people, it is probably still great, but it's just not for me. Regardless, just because it's not my thing, does not mean it's bad; it just means it's not my thing. The Dev seems to work hard, produces solid CGs and delivers regular updates and that alone is worth 4 stars.

On of the best NTR games! There is u found good story and beautiful MC. Slow corruption and its very good. I don't speak English and can't say much more about this game, but if u like NTR u must play this game. There is a lot of content.

Very good game, it is a simple but entertaining dynamic, good story, good characters but the amount of errors that are generated when not using the guide are demaciated, so much so that I had to start the game several times and keep recording many times so as not to commit mistakes. They should somehow block actions to avoid unnecessary attacks.

This game is barely 6 months old (version 0.35), but its moving fast enough into open-space-office-slut mode, which is good by me, as I hate "slow-burn" (i.e. slow-scam) games. The sharing/hotwife/willing NTR fetish is being exploited in a rather original and enticing way.

This game looks a lot like Nick Fifa's Elena's Life, but the female MC here is smarter, and her cucked hubby is more interesting as well.

1) Cuck hubby here starts out by encouraging the MC to fuck his friend and colleague, but he might very well regret unleashing a true monster: he's not the usual NTR victim who never evolves. This spices up the sharing/NTR fetish.

2) Stacy, the MC in this game, is not a total moron like Elena, she actively teases her bosses, and is aware that her ass, mouth and pussy might give her advantages and protection from some bosses against others, if needed. Cool. I love sluts who are also venal, corrupt, evil, and therefore smart.

I can only hope she'll become increasingly manipulative. I like the idea of having all three floors of the workplace eventually (but soon!) pound her, however its important she loses any kind of innocence in the process. The supernatural element in the story (which I usually don't like, its often a poor way to justify corruption) might very well guarantee that. Fingers crossed.


The Good

-Good quality renders.

-The MC model is very good, though I hope for more make-up: please do not make the lack of make-up contradict her sluttiness and clothing!

-As said, the pace at which sexual content is becoming more perverted and kinky is acceptable, though I hope for more fucking and less teasing as the story unfolds.

-The latest outfit is hot and sexy as hell, even if version 0.35 is a massive cliffhanger in this sense, since the update ends with her simply buying it. But hell, this ups the expectations for the next update, when we'll see her wearing it in action!


The Bad

-RPGM in 2020...brrrr...repetitive daily actions, and the spaces are quite big as well, by other games' standards, so the walking time from one place to the next is longer than it could be, really.

-Some 3D panels are unskippable. That daily dream sequence, even if it does evolve, just takes too long.

-Please pose those new awesome platform high heels correctly, dev! Her first high heel sandals bended in barefoot posing mode, its really cringing for a high heel fetish like myself! I'm praying to the Gods of porn you'll respect those beautiful new high-heels you've now given her, and pose them correctly, whatever the body posing!!


This dev deserves support. The good points make the bad ones easily forgiveable. Keep up the good work dev!

Easily one of my top 5 favorite stories on here. Great work man, keep it up!
It's got intrigue, some seriously sexy moments and more than a few laughs. It's out there, fun, and yet somehow feel realistic while being totally outlandish. Can't wait for the next update

This is one of those games where you just sort of lose yourself into it. You get this urge for the next step forward down this sultry path for the MC. You get these little tid bits and it allows you to truly see all of the slow changes happening to her.

I will admit some scenes do get a little repetitive especially when you are going through multiple days trying to figure out what the next checkpoint is. But it is always worth it and never hard to find. The game does a decently good job at guiding you to where you need to go and what you need to do next to progress the story.

I like all of the outfit changes that the MC goes through, altering everything piece by piece and I truly look forward to seeing just how far she can push the boundaries at the office. I personally know what I would like to see happen with her outfit.

Either way I will be adding this game to my list of games to watch closely.

Why this game is great?

1. The scenes are great. (+1)
2. Story is great. I would still play if this was a non sex game. I am still unsatisfied that there is no mention how the story progresses. (+1, -1, =0)
3. Great anatomy. Not just female, but male aswell. No super melons or horse ding-dongs. (+2)
4. Characters are true to their nature. (counts in story so no points.)
5. Corruption done right. Slow and gradual. (+1)
6. Exhibitionism and Voyeurism done okay (since it was only okay, no extra points.)


What I hated.
1. The game is long, but not because it has a lot of content but because it is repetitive. It feels like playing a ren'py instead of a RPGM since there aren't really choices for you to choose from. The story progresses linearly. (-1)
2. Clothing. While anatomy in the game was awesome, the clothing was messed up. clothes don't stick to the sternum when someone has boobs that big and is wearing a bra. (0, won't pick off points for something like this.)
3. The options are messed, like I am forced into the NTR route even if I choose the non NTR one. (-2)

Suggestions for improvement:
1. Options in the clothing, Since the game is being published out as a RPGM, there is no reason to not add choices to dressing. more colors, more undergarments would be great.
2. Repetitiveness is okay and part of RPGM, but there should be a button to speed/skip it. (I am not aware of the coding behind it so i am not sure if this can be implemented)
3. This seriously needs a recap room.

CHEERS FOR DEVELOPER FOR MAKING THIS GAME FREE AND DONATION BASED!

Excelent game! Tha way the author leads the development of each character is amazing! Stacey day by day, even struggling, more and more wants to discover herself as a woman. Jason by his side, wants her to give in to her inner passion and Nate is willing to share this moments with them. Needless to say, one of the best games in this genre i ever played!

Review v0.26

Hopefully I will update this review on a later version and it becomes a 4 or a 5. But for now . . .

Good:
- Attractive MC.
- Physical attributes and appearances are fairly normal. Thankfully, this game avoids the "boyfriend has a tiny dick and everyone else has a baseball bat" syndrome, as well as the "the bigger the breasts the better" affectation. Also, all of the characters have appealing attributes - so far haven't seen the fat rapist, the old rapist, or the Freddy Kreuger character that pops up in many RPGM corruption games.
- Dev does a GREAT job with facial expressions (possibly the best I've seen).
- Story has some mystery to it (e.g. - Decent pacing on MC's corruption
- Lots of characters with varied personalities
- Lots of foreshadowing of future events
- There were at least 25 unique scenes (the game tracks "enchantment points" and at the end of v0.26 you have 25 of them).
- Appears to be written by someone for which English is their native tongue (i.e. few to no spelling / grammatical errors).

What's missing / "Meh" elements:
- No gallery
- No way to hide the text bar
- Virtually no sound (e.g. there isn't even a sound when you save, let alone background music or gasping during sex scenes). Kinda weird to play a "game" in nearly total silence.
- No hints / quests. You can use the walkthrough provided (and you absolutely should). Would have been better if the MC had an internal dialogue suggesting what you should do next, or even better use the quest function within RPGM.
- Only the Mega link (as of this version ) is complete. The NOPY version is missing a file.
- If you get too hasty accelerating through dialogue and accidentally click during an animation the game will freeze. So save often.
- Without a gallery, would be nice to see a "repeat / continue" feature added to animations. I've seen this in other games. Without it, after grinding through repetitive content, it is disappointing that the "good stuff" is over so quickly.
- Not sure the dev has decided on the nature of this - that is, it isn't really a game (there aren't any puzzles or other game-like elements), but there's enough walking around that it isn't really a virtual novel, either. And the only decision that maybe impacted the story was to NTR or to not NTR. And by all means, you should pick NTR, because that leads to the hottest scenes.

The bad:
- Groundhog Day* - except you don't end up knowing how to play piano or sculpt ice. Many (MANY!) scenes repeat. Over and over and over. This isn't an RPGM game problem - this is built in by the dev and only serves to pad the game time. And to be clear, this isn't like some grind games where you have to walk all over the place or take a 1-2 click shower each morning. Virtually EVERY DAY you have a multi-click shower, getting dressed, drinking coffee, driving to work, talking to the guard, talking to the boss, doing a part of your job in the morning, doing a part of your job in the afternoon -- all with renders and dialog that you've seen several if not dozens of times before. And just when you think it is safe to speed through this dialog ("W"), a slightly new piece of dialog slides in with no warning. This did improve between v0.25 and v.26, so hopefully the dev has created enough new content to leave this HORRIBLE aspect behind.
- Lack of quests / guidance / complete walkthrough -- I just happened to see an easter egg event in the forum. Are there others? With so much (SO MUCH) grinding each day, does the dev really expect us to explore and find easter eggs outside of the normal course of the day?

*I stole the "Groundhog Day" idea from a post within the forum, but it does a great job describing this "game." The other descriptor I thought of was "The Daily Grind."

Rating for: (v0.25)

...PROS:
-Good story, well implemented and progressive.
-Grinding its fine
-Good ntr and voyeur kink game.

...CONS:
-A bit repetetive, needs more variation on our day a day.
-Maybe more desisions to take different paths

In general the game need to be improved, but have much potential. For me its a fresh game in NTR category. Four stars.

- Story is interresting
- Main character is hot
- Animations are pretty good

I am not sure if i played it right, but i think the choices arent really choices (you dont have the scene i think).
I dont think there is a grinding problem, more a problem that you have to do every enchantment one after another (not two or three parallel) so you have to do one per day i think.

Overall the game looks pretty good but i think a RenPy version would be better than a RPGM version because you dont do much, just running to every point for the next story step.

Great story and renders

the bad part is that there is little update (0.25) , I will wait about 3 updates to play again


Very good game for those who like progressive ntr in which she starts being holy and gets more dirty over time and shows off more and more, I hate the part with Jason (husband), I prefer her with the others, it is much better;

The game just needs to be lighter and with fewer bugs, it is difficult to walk at night, the game is too slow and even more if it is the night with some background

Nice, good game I think that the game is on the right track, love the animation, and the view angle, love the story too. Keep it up bro, honestly the game is satisfying, reduced bugs and added walkthrough so the game now is much easier to progress.

Fun premise, prospect of expanding into something good but plagued by endless, pointless wandering about. Feels like I need to go to lunch every day just to open up dialogue. Pointless and is really offputting. I know it's a staple of RPGM games but by god it's tedious. I don't mind walking from point A to point B if it drives the story but to go from point A to point B simple so that I have to go back to point A to progress the story is poor writing.

This is my new NTR RPG favorite game. Slow development of depravity, well-set plot. I look forward to continuing the development of history. I recommend to all fans of the genre. Who said routine should be boring?
