Masquerade: Hell Academy

Insane amount of CG, lots of routes and choices, Pil/Slash did it again! Heavily recommended, especially if you enjoyed Paradise and/or Room n°9 Be sure to install the (free) patch from JAST's website before playing

Honestly, I’m not even sure what to say about this game. It technically has lore, but the vast majority of it feels like an excuse to just throw the characters into those increasingly messed-up situations. It's basically torture porn with a thin layer of story just there to vaguely justify why anyone's even in this scenario. Most of the game revolves around abuse, degradation, and characters slowly losing their minds. If you're expecting an interesting story, meaningful character dynamics, or emotional depth—this really isn’t it. Some reviews compare it to Room No. 9, but I completely disagree. Room No. 9 actually had character development and strong emotional scenes. This just felt repetitive and empty. I found myself skipping through large sections because it felt like the same thing over and over again. Also, the MC is a minor (around 17), which made the NSFW scenes feel very uncomfortable. The art is okay at best and pretty janky at worst. The music and voice acting were fine, but they weren’t enough to carry the experience. Overall, I can’t really recommend this unless you’re specifically seeking something disturbing and don’t care much about story, pacing, or character work. If you're coming into this because you liked Room No. 9, please know it’s nothing like it. Don’t be misled.

If I'm being entirely honest, the art was a little meh. The game was a little boring at times, but overall just a solid game. Definitely lacking at some parts, but it had a genuinely interesting plot! If you have a bit of extra money to blow, check this game out! It honestly gives me like, 2013 vibes if that makes sense? I feel like this would be a game femcel's would enjoy also, I ALSO feel like if this game got adapted into a manga it would be great! (Sorry I'm schizo ranting now...) Anyways, make sure you download the 18+ patch on JAST's website! :)

This is probably the best (guilty pleasure) visual novel I've read so far this year. If you're anything like me and you're into some weird, dark, and disturbing ♥♥♥♥ like I am, this one is for you. The first half of this game is pretty much just torture porn; a hostage situation where the hostages are forced to do explicitly depraved acts to each other. There's plenty of choices, cgs and sex scenes to go around. The art is ok most of the time, but there are other times where it's straight up fugly, but maybe that's the beauty in older visual novels like this. The music is great, as well as the voice acting. If you liked Room No.9 then this is your next read.

I enjoyed it! It's a pretty short one and the plot is alright at best. Besides that, I thought the protagonist in particular was very cute and liked the amount of scenes and CG's packed in this for all the characters. Always love being able to experience older classic blvn's!

ethical gooning moment

Very funny in a morbid way. Doesn't take itself too seriously, and that's where it shines best. Room no. 9 comparisons aren't too far off, as both titles deal with extremely upsetting scenarios inflicted on characters. However, as mentioned, it's not as serious. Anyone open to humorous takes on messed up scenarios will certainly appreciate this game. Also, make sure to install the free patch from JAST website.

为什么一个黄油的op会这么好听...？大家都来听細井聡司的[b] 雲の向こう [/b]好吗。打到TE前都跳了op也没看商店主页的宣传片，听见op的时候简直有种第一次听eyes only的震撼。 其实比起9号房间这部给我的感觉更像是鬼畜眼镜（其实根本就没打过几部）主要指这种古早画风和对H的描写。雨宫充写的真的很三次男同...每次看见都很萎只想skip。这部虽然全篇都在做但没有特别猎奇，有些结局其实还挺纯爱的。因为经常出现全员乱交所以适合混邪乐子人玩，在意体位的人可能会被创（）以及一些人体蜈蚣，配上画风崩到天上的cg简直太幽默了特别好笑x 而且男主看着很弱气，但居然有分攻受的结局。加上真相线写得还不错，感觉不算无脑拔作。

恶趣味极致即有趣，[spoiler] 你们都在淦什么？ [/spoiler] 逃犯完全编剧附体，特别能整活，疯癫的剧情，多场比赛惊心动魄，思路打开 官配姬原在他的个人线，双方暗向箭头却爱而不得，在八王子线嫉妒的发疯，何尝不是一种纯爱 沼田本以为是受，结果游戏分了攻受两条线。现在，攻守之势异也 TE写的还不错，悬念很足，但逃犯前期的行为解释就圆不过来了，可以玩玩

It's a 18+ BL game (if you download the free patch). If you have played room nr.8 (also a deranged BL game); then you know what kind of game this is. Those hostiles are being tortured! If this is not your game don't play it. I had a lot of fun completing the endings, scenes and CGs.
