Memoirs of a Battle Brothel

Captivating story and atmospheric setting overall, reminds me of 1st Fallout, good job! Bro, my opinion is that you need to do your games the right way. You need to fight proper funding and make a team of developers working to achieve your view of the project. The potential shown in this game is far beyond of what a single man could handle as a developer and an artist, as you must know by now. In any way good luck. For my personal preference that what is called the 4th wall break in the end in just too much of an interference, unless you want to establish a religious cult. Besides that game is magnificent, you just know how this should be done at the present moment, this is a rare and unique talent, which important not to overestimate, otherwise things would not simply not work. I also want to add that from my view this game should'be been marketed as a DivOrSinII-or-whatever-like indie RPG with a hidden gem, and not as a pixel game wrapper for 18+ content.

TLDR: Classic RPG with a great setting, amazing story, solid combat mechanics, and plenty of dessert. All made by one guy. That this exists is a miracle, and I can't wait to see what he does next. Just finished my first play through of MoaBB. I've got nothing bad to say about the game. The setting is this wonderful mix of cyberpunk and shadowrun. Don't let the vanilla RPG maker sprites and menus fool you. The developer took the time to insert hand drawn images of the setting and characters into so many parts of the game. The artwork elevates the entire experience and makes every new reveal a visual feast. Gameplay is a top down map explorer, mixed with a grid based combat system. While there are only 4 classes to choose from in the game, each has 3 sub-classes, all with their own specializations. This allows for a really deep and rich character building process that I've rarely seen done as well in other games. Combat is slow but varied, and it doesn't punish you too much for making mistakes. Many encounters in the game give you the option to avoid combat entirely, adding an interesting play dynamic that you rarely see in these kinds of experiences. The story is a solid 20-30 hour jaunt through the setting and town you operate out of. While there, you're introduced to multiple factions, and you draw in a number of recruits to your personal cause. You develop relationships with the factions as you work through the game, getting a very "show don't tell" view of the city and all it's elements as you play. Interactions with your comrades are surprisingly deep. They don't just appear and drop their clothes for you. Each one requires a level of investment to get to the rewards they offer individually. While there are not many side-quests in the game, engaging in the ones that are there opens up some of the best art in the game and are very worthwhile. Negatives? There are a few. Faction interaction is surprisingly thin outside of the main story line. There are some elements of the story (especially near the end, with the prophecy) that feel rushed, incomplete, or a bit confusing. It would be nice if there was a little more interaction with some of the side characters and even a few of the main ones. Some were a bit thin on story development and could have used a bit more. All of these are minor though, and at best create a few speedbumps as you play through the game. My biggest personal complaint was I couldn't "get" every girl in my party by the end of the game. You mean to say my decisions have consequences??? How DARE you! All in all, it was a fantastic experience. I can't wait to play through it again and see what all I missed. That this is all the work of a single person is awe inspiring. My hats off to Mouse for all his efforts delivering something so fun, so compelling, and so complete. I was upset when I went to his Kickstarter for the sequel to this game and had missed it. Thankfully, Kickstarter let me late pledge and I'm now signed up for the next one. If you're looking for a tight, well made, fun RPG, it's hard to go wrong with this choice here. Anyone looking down on this because they think it's a T&A experience, is badly missing out.

Sex sells - it is extremely clear that the NSFW theme is really there to snag your attention and elevate it's chance of being discovered, and I daresay it clearly worked considering how many people have given this title a chance versus the countless other RPGMaker titles across the platform. This positive recommendation is only for a particularly specific audience, as it is not enough of a porn game to appease the gooners and not a fleshed out enough tactical experience for the math nerds. The writing and character development is exceptional - everything else about the game is clearly held back by it's RPGMaker origin. There are several typos, a lot to dislike about the UI, vague to completely unexplained mechanics, and I had to force close the game constantly after most major events. Fortunately the game autosaves in such a way that there was never any progress lost, but still NOT an enjoyable element. That said, it is easily one of the finest examples of what one can do with such tools and a lot of determination. If you are willing to give what appears to be a passionate solo dev a chance and be patient through the jank, big and small, there is a lot of meaningful interaction and world building to enjoy with depth not found in your typical adult title. I also want to point out that this developer is known to use AI assets with their titles. I do not know if any were used here as it is not disclosed, but it is difficult to be supportive and have a balanced perspective of individuals who use such means as a voice actor myself. Obviously this is not one of my favorite things to know and makes it difficult to be enthusiastic for future creations and while I truly empathize with the immense workload a small developer has on their plate to produce an exceptional product in a highly competitive area, as another creative...it stings a bit.

RPG-игра, где вы играете главным «папиком» для своих куртизанок. Создаёте гильдию куртизанок-наёмниц, и пошло-поехало: дай денег на это, тут построить надо то-то, а ещё нам новые члены в команду нужны! Если без шуточек, вкратце это отличная киберпанк-история с тактическими боями. Лучшие части игры — это сеттинг и истории управления борделем, персонажи и завершение истории. Но теперь о важном: секс в этой игре — лишь часть сеттинга, а не главная тема. Да и, откровенно говоря, тут мало полноразмерных хороших CG за всю игру и в основном среднего уровня пиксель-арт. На скриншотах к игре можете оценить. Поэтому зайдет только любителям RPG и киберпанк сеттинга.

[h1] 概述 [/h1] 《Memoirs of a Battle Brothel》（妓院战争回忆录）是一款像素画风的回合制角色扮演游戏，但是它又不同于传统2D平面的画面，而是有点像宝可梦XY那种2.5D效果的游戏画面，这点让我感到惊喜。玩家需要深入探究这个残酷的赛博朋克世界，所有的战略角色和选择都将引领玩家迈向不同的结局路线。本作与本组评测的大部分游戏一样，不支持中文，需要一定的英文阅读能力才能顺利游玩。 [h1] 背景介绍 [/h1] 故事讲述的是玩家扮演的妓院经理，在名为“落月”的城市中，参与妓院公会的管理任务。玩家不仅在探索这座充满危机与秘密的城市，还要不断为自己的妓院产业拓展关系而行动。既然是妓院的经理，那么玩家当然有权利选择与自己妓院的妓女们发生关系，这也算是本作H内容的重要体现方式。 [h1] 玩法特点 [/h1] 本作不同于传统的RPG线性推进故事进程，而是在类似于沙盒玩法的城市中，非线性的推进故事情节。虽然玩家扮演的是名妓院经理，但是玩家还能在此基础上为自己添加一个新职业，在部门管理，安保和代理人三种中任选其一。玩家每次以不同职业或者性别开局，都能获得独一无二的游戏体验，并且在游戏推进过程中，选择不同的选项，也能在一定程度上影响游戏中女角色的好感度和剧情的走向。 作为回合制RPG，本作在玩法上更加侧重于传统的战旗游戏玩法，战术回合制战斗要求玩家制定战略并优化团队能力，这为游戏在玩法上提供了深度，但又不会过于复杂而让玩家感到束手无策。 游戏将传统的 RPG 元素与未来主义叙事相结合，并辅以独​​特的赛博朋克美学。这种艺术手法不仅突出了游戏的主题，而且还创造了一个充满科幻气息的游戏场景。虽然是像素画风，但是游戏在动画效果方面表现出色，在不同场景间自由的切换2D 3D 视角，大大增加了游戏给玩家带来的沉浸感体验，展现了一个充满活力的赛博朋克世界。 [h1] 游戏深度 [/h1] 游戏以赛博朋克风格的世界为背景，探讨了生存、权力和人际关系等主题。游戏深入探讨了妓院妓女们的生活，她们不仅擅长享乐，还擅长战斗，在一个暴力不断受到犯罪集团、贵族和神秘组织的威胁的社会中穿梭。玩家将遇到各种各样的角色，每个角色都有自己的故事和秘密，在角色塑造方面游戏做的很棒。为了能够深入了解每个角色，玩家需要重复游玩，才能揭开所有角色的秘密。 [h1]总结 [/h1] 《妓院回忆录》是一款成人主题战术角色扮演游戏，凭借引人入胜的故事情节和巧妙的战斗设计，为玩家展现了一段具有挑战性的赛博朋克冒险之旅。对于喜欢暗黑主题，对战略联盟感兴趣的叙事玩家来说，这款游戏也十分推荐。 [quote]欢迎关注[url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/37516409/]小柠檬咖啡厅[/url]，只为发掘优秀的游戏 [/quote]

[h1][b]🎮 Reseña de Memoirs of a Battle Brothel[/b][/h1] [h2]Resumen del Juego[/h2] Memoirs of a Battle Brothel es ese híbrido indie que mira a los JRPG tácticos por turnos y a los simuladores “para adultos” y dice: “¿Y si lo mezclamos todo con cyberpunk, mitos, decisiones con consecuencias y… bueno, ya sabes?” El resultado es un juego para un solo jugador que intenta ser estratégico en combate, narrativo en elecciones y descarado en contenido. La primera impresión es clara: no es un título para “probar tantito en la oficina” ni para presumirle a tu abuelita. Aquí vienes por combate por turnos, gestión/simulación con protagonista femenina y una historia que promete finales múltiples. Y sí, también vienes por lo otro. El juego no se hace el santo: se inclina fuerte a su temática adulta y te reta a aceptar que, a veces, tu build y tus decisiones importan tanto como tu tolerancia al cringe. [h2][i]Lo que te sube de nivel… y lo que te deja en debuff[/i][/h2] Lo Bueno: ✅ Combate por turnos con enfoque táctico/estratégico 🧠⚔️ ✅ Elecciones que importan y finales múltiples (bien ahí, drama rejugable) 🔀📌 ✅ Mezcla rara pero atractiva: cyberpunk + mitos/leyendas + rol japonés 🤖📜 ✅ Protagonista femenina y presencia LGBTQ+ (variedad que suma, no adorno) 🏳️‍🌈🎭 Lo No Tan Bueno: ❌ Cero logros: Steam mirando al techo como “¿y mi dopamina?” 🏆🚫 ❌ Es un juego que no puedes “disimular”: contenido sexual explícito que limita cuándo y dónde jugarlo 🫣🖥️ ❌ Nicho pesado: si no te late el enfoque adulto tipo hentai, el resto puede no ser suficiente 🎴🔞 ❌ Comunidad/actividad bajísima (1 jugador actual): se siente como fiesta a la que llegaste tarde 🎉➡️🕯️ [h2]Tabla de Evaluación[/h2] [table] [tr][th]Aspecto[/th][th]Puntuación (0-10)[/th][th]Comentario[/th][/tr] [tr][td]Jugabilidad[/td][td]7[/td][td]Turnos tácticos y rol con decisiones; funciona, aunque no reinventa el género.[/td][/tr] [tr][td]Dificultad / IA[/td][td]6[/td][td]Cumplidora: más estrategia que milagros, sin sensación de “IA genial”.[/td][/tr] [tr][td]Contenido[/td][td]7[/td][td]Entre rutas, elecciones y finales múltiples, hay material… especialmente del “material”.[/td][/tr] [tr][td]Gráficos / Video[/td][td]6[/td][td]Mezcla 2D/3D típica indie: suficiente, pero no para presumir capturas como si fueran arte moderno.[/td][/tr] [tr][td]Historia[/td][td]7[/td][td]Promete buena trama con decisiones; el tono adulto puede eclipsarla para algunos.[/td][/tr] [tr][td]Ambientación[/td][td]8[/td][td]Cyberpunk con mitos/leyendas: rara combinación que sí se siente con identidad.[/td][/tr] [tr][td]Efectos (VFX)[/td][td]6[/td][td]Correctos, sin fuegos artificiales… salvo los “fuegos artificiales” narrativos.[/td][/tr] [tr][td]Música[/td][td]6[/td][td]Acompaña, no estorba; no esperes que se te pegue como opening de anime.[/td][/tr] [tr][td]Voces[/td][td]5[/td][td]Sin señales claras de doblaje destacado; se siente más funcional que memorable.[/td][/tr] [tr][td]Diversidad[/td][td]7[/td][td]Protagonista femenina + LGBTQ+ presentes; bien integrado para el tipo de juego que es.[/td][/tr] [tr][td]Rendimiento[/td][td]7[/td][td]Al ser un indie 2D/3D, debería ir estable en general; no parece buscar romper PCs.[/td][/tr] [tr][td]Rejugabilidad[/td][td]7[/td][td]Finales múltiples y elecciones empujan a repetir… si el tema te engancha.[/td][/tr] [tr][td][b]Total Puntuaciones (Bueno)[/b][/td][td][b]6.6[/b][/td][td]Sólido y peculiar: más competente de lo que su premisa sugiere, pero no es para todos.[/td][/tr] [/table] [h2]Conclusión (Bueno)[/h2] Memoirs of a Battle Brothel es “bueno” en el sentido más peligroso de Steam: no es basura, tiene ideas, tiene táctica por turnos y sí intenta que tus decisiones importen. La ambientación cyberpunk con mitos/leyendas le da personalidad, y la mezcla de rol estratégico con simulación adulta está hecha con suficiente intención como para no sentirse un chiste de cinco minutos… aunque claro, el juego también quiere que te rías (y te incomodes) un poco. Pero seamos controversiales: que tenga 198 recomendaciones habla de que encontró a su público, no de que sea universalmente brillante. Con 1 jugador actual, la vibra es más de culto silencioso que de fenómeno. Si te interesa un RPG táctico con narrativa ramificada y no te asusta (o te atrae) el contenido explícito, aquí hay un paquete competente. Si vienes buscando “solo estrategia” sin el componente adulto dominándolo todo, probablemente vas a salir con cara de “¿por qué me hice esto?”. [h3]Recomendación de Compra (Recomendado con reservas)[/h3] Puntuación Total: 6.6/10 Número de jugadores activos al momento de hacer esta review: 1 Descuento máximo registrado: -45% Veredicto: [i]Recomendado con reservas: buen táctico-narrativo para público muy específico.[/i] Si tu tolerancia al contenido sexual explícito es alta y te llama la atención un rol táctico con elecciones y finales múltiples en un mundo cyberpunk con mitología, dale. Si te incomoda la temática o buscas algo “apto para todo público”, mejor sigue scrolleando antes de que tu biblioteca te juzgue en silencio.

Actual tactical gameplay is kind of slow, due to the computer taking forever to make a move. As an RPG though, it excels. Love the cast of characters, the world building, and the personality & charm of the writing. Oh right, can't forget about the sex. There is a lot of it!

Overall a very fun, amazing, turn-based RPG. 9/10. Would recommend, and will play again. I can't wait to see what the developer has in store for their next game.

It crashes my computer on the main menu. There's no option to run the game windowed and it freezes up everything within 2 minutes of starting.
