Maid Mansion Reviews

I am recommending this game - barely - with a rating of 5 out of 10. * It is mildly entertaining for about a 10 hour play through the "Good" endings. * You must follow the guides to do this since the paths to these good endings are not intuitive. There are 22 endings, but only 8 of them are good. * The Eastern culture reflected in the game is quite different from Western culture. It can be hard to understand and accept from the Western viewpoint, and this detracts from enjoyment. * The female servants accept their submission unquestionably and matter-of-factly. This is quite unbelievable actually. * "Punishment" takes the form of sexual molestation. This can be a little cringe worthy since it is unrealistic. I could appreciate some real BDSM - even non-consensual - but this is more like a weird fantasy. * There is no harem ending. You go through the many choices to end up with one of the maids in a very vanilla ending. * The graphics are bare minimum - a background painting with a foreground of the current maid(s) being interacted with.

Boring Anime trash. There is nothing interesting about it but to torture the reader to some backwards way of thinking. I fell asleep reading this garbage, looking at the same boring style Anime faces of bug eyed children. This foreign made trash is proof all those Asian countries suck. I hate you developers and artists of this kind of cheap boring garbage peddled into this country for a quick buck. BAD GAME!

[h3] Overall Opinion [/h3] Came for the plot, stuck around for the plot. Overall it provided enough for me to review this positively with a few caveats. Also should you get this game I recommend for going in blind for the first couple of endings, as it enhances the experience. A DLC is also in the works, if that affects your decision though it's something to consider. I'd wait for a sale, or if money isn't an issue and you like this type of game then consider a purchase to be well worth it. [h3] The Good [/h3] The greatest strength of the game is the plot itself, the intrigue around the deceased patriarch and maids who are more than meets the eye. The quantity of endings will ensure that your first few playthroughs are distinct, though not all are created equally. Additionally aspects of the story remain locked behind certain paths, so your perspective of the plot can shift from your first couple of playthroughs. An example is [b] Spoiler [/b]: [spoiler] on my first playthrough I ended up focusing on Reiko and Misaki thus missing out on the fact that Umeko was a part of the secret police tasked to spy on you, which I learned in my second playthrough as she got me a bad ending. [/spoiler] The tasteful scenes are high quality and happen often enough to keep things interesting, with some scenes being a reward a given endings to make them more meaningful. [h3] The Bad [/h3] For a game to have so many endings, some naturally arise from contrivances where minute matters that shouldn't change the outcome does. Not all endings suffer from this fate, however, when it does happen you'll notice. The game is also short, my first playthrough clocking in at roughly 2 hours, so the cost/playtime may or may not be worth it depending on the person.
