If you want to you can still offer "corruption-style content" in this setting. No coercion or stupid mindbreak rape but the PC can guide the women towards more extreme, kinky or otherwise initially refused sex acts. Only instead of the usual "a good slave knows how to take a gangbang" you might have a girl with intimacy issues working the gloryhole, so you gradually (and with informed consent) teach her how to deepthroat and perform rimjobs, then PiV/anal at the gloryhole and maybe she gets used to it and eventually takes clients face to face. Getting the aunt to sleep with the PC would also require corruption of at least one of them (she can be the initiator!) unless they're both in the Alabama mindset to begin with.

I don't know what fractions of corruption fans seek which aspects, honestly most of the games with that tag aren't even remotely close to working on real humans and some are just outright rape. By definition "corruption" involves shifting someone's morality to a less socially accepted view without forcing them but in some of the discussion threads the reason people enjoy the games is phrased more as "a desire to destroy something beautiful" which rape does satisfy while consensual morality shifts mostly don't.
I see.
I always thought that corruption was a woman going over her own moral values because of some blackmail or outside influence that she couldn't deny, so she ends up giving in.
Perhaps the term has a broader meaning than that.

Forgot the name of the game, but its plot was that you were a brothel manager and you summon a bunch of girls from different anime/manga/video games and enslave them into being your hookers. Didn't actually have a ton of gameplay, but the concept is interesting, and easy to expand on. Maybe have to feed, clean and train the girls, match girls with clients, manage their energy and morale, stuff like that.

It sure is misused a lot, and blackmail can still count if the cited result is not the demand of the blackmailer. For example a married woman being blackmailed at work isn't cheating out of "corruption" but she might discover that her hubby sucks in bed or decide to turn the tables, flirt with and then blackmail her boss for a promotion. That would be corruption initiated through blackmail, and the latter example doesn't even necessarily involve sex but still shows a corruption of morals.

Then there's "(meta)physical" corruption, mostly reserved for fantasy settings but also found in incel beliefs. Some natural force which is inherently objectively evil, and as such even involuntary contact corrupts body and soul. Can involve sexuality, but strangely enough even when classic demons are the perpetrators I rarely see it played straight that way. Most of the time it's a temporary "make orgy" spell with no lasting effects once it wears off. Or a permanent immediate slut transformation to the point the original person is simply erased.

Slave Maker 3 and Sex Arcade come to mind, plus several Slave Maker inspired games later on.

There is a game that explores that concept?
If you remember the name, let me know, as I was curious to see it.
But even so, I think it's different, because I don't intend to do something aimed at making the girls the MC's slaves, on the contrary, they will work there willingly.

Really, this concept still has a lot to be explored and can become good stories if done right.

Changing the subject a little, I created the logo, is it good?

I love the idea, and good luck! I won't repeat what others have already said, but finding good games where the MC can basically build a harem that he gets to corrupt and have sex with, but then also have them have sex with other men is really hot, and sadly also rare.

I'm not at all into degredation or abuse, or forcing the girls to do anything that they don't want, but a game where they can be gradually persuaded to do more and go further and enjoy it the whole time is really hot. For me, its only "NTR" if the girl and the MC are an exclusive couple. Otherwise, its all just fun casual sex, and that's what I want more of in games (and from all porn).

Pretty much all brothel games I have tried have been shit, to be honest. So, if someone created one that wasn't, that might be interesting in itself. Not holding my breath that's ever going to happen.

Just a thought on this. But you could also add in some regular drama by having the girls come to the MC with real live problems. Be it money, a boyfriend (ex-boyfriend), stalker, sick mom, etc., that the MC can help them with outside of the brothel. A good way to get to know the girls personalities, and make them more real. Just a thought. Good luck with the idea!

As I said in a previous answer (and I understand if you haven't read it), there won't be corruption or anything like that in my story, girls will go looking for the brothel because it's an "easy" opportunity to earn money and they need it, so there will be no abuse or degradation in the story, as the MC will not be forcing them into anything.

The MC will kind of be the "manager" of the brothel and thus have contact with several girls while preparing them to serve customers.
Anyway, I'm glad you liked the premise, I'm already starting to make up my mind about moving forward in the development of this story, as the feedback is being positive.

Well, I can't promise mine will be awesome, as that would be too pretentious of me, but I'll at least try. :ROFLMAO:

Nice idea!
This can serve as a background of why the girl decided to enter this lifestyle, which makes the story richer.

I'm thinking about creating my first game and I was thinking about creating something with a brothel theme, as it's not a very explored subject, in my opinion, so it might be interesting.
I'd say brothel sims are an established genre by now, but it's true that it is not a very large genre and there is not a great number of good games. You may still find it worthwhile to check a few other games in the genre, although you clearly have a pretty detailed idea of where you want to go. Best of luck to you.

An interesting idea, but I would prefer something where its purely business - preferably not a harem, pure revenge/hatred or love story, but more of a cunning/grey entrepreneurship. After all, most interesting stories are not where the protagonist gets everything, but where everyone else, for the most part, has a point - but so are you. With good research done on how it works, while not necessary, it's recommended if you want people to respect you for portraying their profession accurately.

I have yet to play something like that proper, most revolve around dumb good or dumb bad characters, so I don't have much hope, but if you really want to do around that, then I have nothing against as long you do something that no one else did before or in a subversive, good way.

The protagonist doesn't matter - it can be a man or a woman, so their partners/co-workers/whatever, but again, don't make stereotypical ones that would make people upset for a reason.

I confess that it was an idea that came to mind, but I didn't play a lot of Brothel-style games.
If you can recommend some to me, I would appreciate it! (y)

I intend to keep this in the way you said. I don't intend to make this a romance or something very emotional, it's going to be much more geared to the fantasy some men may have of what it would be like to own a brothel. That is, to say the least, curious, right?

As for the reality of girls working in this profession, I believe I can write appropriately about it, as I've met some girls personally and talked to them, so I can use their story as a reference.

To be honest, I don't intend to create a badass/alpha male MC unless there is a big demand for it from the public, which I don't think is the case.
I think it's more interesting to put the player in the shoes of an ordinary guy who, suddenly, taken by the circumstances of the story, found himself in the situation of running a brothel.

They are not really a genre that I play a lot, but Wicked Rouge is a very good game and Queen's Brothel is another that is often considered to be good. I have seen Brothel Empire and Zum Damenhaus popping up here and there, but not having played them I cannot vouch for their quality.

How do you come to this assumption? I guess most of the Games with a Beta-Cuck MC are played because there are no alternatives. TBH it would be really refreshing to see an actual MAN getting his pole polished instead of whiny thin Boy fuckin their mommy ;)
But don't listen to me.... i wouldn't even play such a game..... unless you trow in some Dogs... woof ... hahaha

It's not a very common thing to see, it feels more like a niche thing, but I understand your opinion.
Like I said, if there's a big community desire for that, I would include it, but I feel people focus more on the girls.

true that. But i wouldn't make a game based on the opinions of others. I would realize my own vision which would be the chance to add something new instead of recycling the same stuff again and again. If you want to play it safe, make two games.... one Harem and one NTR. Trow in some incest and Futas and you're done ;)

Well, to be honest, the idea is for the MC to be a normal guy (not a beta or an cuck) as I believe the player base will be made up of normal guys so he can feel more in the character's shoes.
But there must be alphas who play these games too, I know, but it must be a minority, you know?

I agree with what you say about putting my own vision into it and I will, but in the right dose, because it's no use creating the game entirely from my own head and nobody wants to play it.
