A surprisingly addicting game, but that might just be because I am a corruption fag, plus the gameplay was unique enough as it wasn't another PRG Maker or FE Maker game, like I am used to. The game started a bit hard, because as you said it takes a while to get used with the mechanics and actually sit down 10 minutes to read the manual to figure shit out.
I haven't done that in years, because, A games are very easy/samey and, B I can just go on jewtube and see how it's done, but not in this case which was refreshing to say the least. My critiques of the games, are that once you have a lot of NPCs, it becomes a bit cumbersone to manage all of them. Say I have 6 succubus and 2 cops show up, I would like for 3 of them to corrupt one cop, and another 3 to corrupt the other. In other games I would click and drag like in an RTS or hold Ctrl to select multiple units/cards, but here I have to select each one of them and manually point them to a cop. Then I also need to manually select the bunny girl to distract them. Another major one, is that once you leave early game(the moment cops start to show up), it becomes very easy to avoid it and champions just by spending 100 Power points to teleport the house. I think this ability is way too powerful and trivializes the game too much. I simply played it nice and slow, gathering up units, selling them on the market, building up my infrastructures, building my army of super Beegirls(yes, Guards are better, but they take away from the Maid pool, and you can't just have Bunnygirls and Guards as someone still needs to clean up the place), making cops into traitors, after having orgies with succubus and bunnygirl, once a champion shows up I fuck him up good, teleport and reset, slowly gathering the 10 artifacts. As such I don't have to deal with 4 cops or a party of heroes fucking my shit up. I think they should have either severely nerfed the teleport(it only delays the timers, instead or resetting everything) or remove it completely and build the game around that. Other things, are minor stuff, like how the Diffusser doesn't Arouse people.
It might seem that I am overly negative, but it was really addicting, started playing it at 8PM, finished at 3AM went to sleep, then played a bunch more, I haven't done that in years, as it's a workday, and I usually go to bed at 11PM, and wake up at 6AM
thankfully I didn't have anything urgent to do at work, but this isn't how I normally roll. I think I am going to build my Beegirls a bit more, because even at 26 Atk they can still get BTFOed by a champion, equip them with a stun gun, and fuck up a party of heroes to get the last needed artifacts.
Anyway for people who want to try it, here my tips and tricks
>to get more mana per turn you need to have more maids, but that requires money to expand as if you go above it, you don't get any more mana
>to get money you have to select your Entrance Yard and click on Organize Character Pickup.
>the pickup happens at precise hour(9Am or 5PM), so you have time to corrupt them and sell them(you can also sell bees and plan girls)
>to sell, simply select an NPC you controll, and click on the button that has some money on it, they will then go to the Front Entrance and wait to be picked up
>you don't have to do this right away, but try to do it 2 hours before pickup
<towards late game, I corrupt people, put them on sale, but before they get picked up, I have them call people, for them to also get corrupted, before also getting sold
<actually towards late game I just select an NPC and spend 150 mana to instantly turn them into maids, because I have like 300 mana reserves
<this ensures a steady income, and again you can reset when cops show up
>get a plant girl early(use Fertilizer on a maid which will free up a maid spot) to also get bees early
>for bees you should change their AI to focus on building an egg, then get the pollen
>upgrading your False Beehive, gives 2 extra spots, instead of just one like the Succubus or Maid quarters
>another way of getting money fast, is just converting the guests into bees and plants then sell them on the black market
>traitors also give money, so it might also work, to constantly arouse and have sex with guests to corrupt them(that is the percentage you see on their card, it has to be above 0% in order to have a chance)
>it's better to just make cops into Traitors instead of maids, since you get a lot of money, and don't have to teleport, because the SWAT team is coming at your door
>that way you don't have to worry about botching explanations about missing people
>cops also start with above 0% corruption, whereas regular guests can start with negative 80%
>make sure the cops don't have plant seeds in them, you can also use a bit of magic to remove the seed
>you can also take their handcuffs and taser guns using magic but that has a low chance and not a good strategy early game when you have limited mana
<it might also be worth turning a few cops into maids in early to mid game just to get the taser and handcuffs, so that your bees and maids are properly equipped then teleport away
>guests keep reading books they shouldn't?
>in the maid AI tab, you can select a job for them, one of which is librarian, doctor and cook
>the maid librarian will make sure they never read dangerous books, and you can also select from their AI tab, to give them either fake books, or books that corrupts them, or applies other debufs
>you can also summon books using Mana like one that will put them to sleep, or one that will put a succubus mark or plant seed in them
>same with doctor and cook, from the AI tab you can select what type of food/medicine you apply
>using money you can upgrade your maids into Bunnygirls, Guards and Witches
>don't go overboard as those don't clean, so you still need some regular maids
>the best stats and NPC can have is 14, so I usually convert the ones with 14 social into a BunnyGirl, 14 Attack into either a Guard or Bee, and 14 magic into either succubus or witch
>Maids I also select for stats of above 12, preferably 14 in social
>plant girls, I still don't know what stats are good or how the even use their stats
>the rest I just make them into maids and sell them on the market
