Others Trap Quest [R14 v4.0] [Aika]
I've been looking at the various versions and I have to say that the STRATEG version might be the best yet except for a single problem which the previous version lack.
I mean the original first version was neat because it had a picture of each body part that was altered through the game, which was then followed by the Danaume version which gave a full body picture that was pretty cool as well as a rear image. The keriax and wonderfuller weren't my cup of tea so I've been with the Danaume for some time, but I really like how the STRATEG version looks, despite it being 3D. However the STRATEG version doesn't appear to have a rear view image which is pretty much its biggest downside. There's also a minor problem where the lips don't appear to change that much during transformation, but I'm ok with that.
Its just that its difficult to gauge butt transformation from the front. I wonder if Aika plans to add a rear version considering that the STRATEG version is patron only and therefor might be a alpha thing going on, but I do sincerely miss my butts.

After who knows how many tries it suddenly worked. Not sure why Racaty is used on site, terrible peering and their servers are constantly overloaded.
Honestly it depends on what you're after if you find it boring. I mean once you've exhausted every possible option everything becomes boring in most games. But if you're referring to the actual gameplay, well... its pretty niche?
The thing is that if you're playing inform 7 games in the first place, it generally means you've already played most, if not all, the good games on the other engines. It also helps that it runs better than a lot of RAG games if you've tried them before.
Still there are currently only 4 levels (the 5th one is WIP), so i can see why some people get bored quickly after finishing it a few times.
Don't forget this is a fetish-heavy sandbox to some extent. If you enable everything and play it in Iron Man mode you will virtually never exhaust all content because that's how RNG works. But if you use the (rather extensive) settings or even "cheaty" methods to focus on a select few fetishes you enjoy you can reasonably exhaust all the related content and finish the game quite quickly. And anything other than bimbofication/sissification, rape/humiliation and diaper fetish has so little small-scale support you do actually run out of meaningful beat-to-beat interactions.

You played every version and didn't like the visuals across each one?
Is there any guide on the classes and class synergies? The wiki is terrible and outdated, and some of the older classes like cowgirl and fertility goddess don't even have full pages.
The Story is terrible because its a fetish game and fits in a very small niche. However its ok but kind of generic when compared to other games in its niche. Also in regards to the visuals, have you compared them to other games that use the inform 7 engine?

"Classes" don't seem to mean much as far as I can tell. They might affect the epilogues which aren't published for easy searching.
Mechanically speaking most things are tied to specific items instead. It usually starts with the "class headgear" (pretty much all headgear is tied to a class) which is spawned when you have a class-related experience and aren't wearing any other headgear at the time. This immediately starts the "class quest" to uncurse said headgear and potentially spawns other clothes or items if relevant (i.e. if you pee in your room you get a maid headdress and also a free spray bottle to immediately begin cleaning). The headgear also controls the rest of the "class outfit" which it spawns over time or as you act in line with your class, sometimes you get the full outfit right away or only some pieces where it doesn't need to rid you of existing clothing (seems they're changing that to always spawn and teleport existing clothes to the starting wardrobe instead). Some classes get held items with numerous individual functions implemented all over the place, for example the prayer beads you get as a priestess have interactions with most of the altars and a few other "demonic" events.
Some checks do look at your class instead. For example tentacle monsters have unique interactions with magical girls and schoolgirls IIRC. But those are still written as "if player is class X" queries in the code of whatever you are interacting with. The main difference being that you can usually keep the special items even after you rid yourself of the class and they continue to function as normal.
I am not sure what you mean with "class synergies" as there doesn't seem to be any way to multiclass or change the class of allies. Most classes tend to focus around humiliating you for specific "taboo" actions so unless you are into submission as well as a particular fetish having no class at all tends to be better than having any of them, though you can also use more benign ones as protection against really debilitating restrictions. And you can use them for free clothes I guess.

I personally tend to prefer no class over any class myself but that's largely due to the spawned clothing thing for me. It's a common complaint for this game that the clothes you wear makes basically no difference as discombobu-lasers and magic dust change them al the time. This is even worse when you get a class which will just remove your clothing anyway.
With that aside, it's actually pretty hard to NOT obtain a class. Even with foreknowledge of what causes what class to begin, you realize that basically anything will start a class route. It's really hard to avoid.
Aside from that aside: there are actual benefits to most classes. The maid spraybottle and the magic girl's wand are fantastic weapons. The sissy class reduces int losses from steeling one's self from fainting. And even when you ignore class specific advantages, the headgear will always reward you for completing their associated task.
Ah okay, those are specialised hardcoded interactions then. No real standard to them, not even sure where you could reliably find them when altars and tattoos are involved.

's the list of class definitions but you'd have to search the entire repository for each one you're interested in to figure out how they work.Quite a few classes currently don't seem to have any actual effects besides maybe spawning 1-2 pieces of clothing so that might be the best option for now. Not sure how the Combat Visor interacts with classes because it is not actually classified as "headgear". If you're willing to cheat spawning in a class headgear for which you have disabled all associated fetishes might block its effects (or spawn stuff anyway, or crash the game. Attempt at your own risk!)
Yeah, but for many of them you can keep the advantages after dropping the class (or at least most of them). So the best option would to have had several classes in the past but dropped them since.
You can start female or use cheats to remain masculine and dominant. Not all NPCs seem to have futa sub options, in fact the vast majority of them would not qualify as "traps" either way (big tits, masculine or fat stature, fantasy creatures).
The "versions" are graphics packs which do not alter the content of the game besides being incomplete. Pretty sure all of them can track boob size though.
Well this game is primarily about submission/feminization. The whole game conspires to make you its bitch. If you're good at the game, you can remain masculine while humping every fuckable enemy. That's difficult though, as intended. If you're really a dom, though, you shouldn't mind a challenge.
