The aim of this game is to maneuver Taro Heibon and get close to the cos-play girls without being noticed. It's the right time to get close to them when they are facing away, so try to move closer before they face round. After passing all the stages, you can register the girls in your Gallery.

About

Taro Heibon will attempt to approach while the girls are looking away!
He is a weak middle-aged man, but sometimes borrows the power of sake and boldly and quickly approaches!
Let's hit the LR trigger repeatedly and approach the girl as soon as possible without being noticed!
The rules of the game are simple, Daruma-san ga koronda.
Do not move when the girl is looking at Taro Heibon!
When you are looking at the direction opposite Taro Heibon you have the chance to move!
Look closely at the actions of girls and let's not miss chance to approach.
First of all, let's choose the shop you'd like to challenge from 5 shops in Moe city map!
Girls called cast are waiting at the shop.
Choose the girl you want to play, you win at all!
Successfully approaching stage level 5 will result in Taro Heibon's victory.
The operation of the game is easy, but in fact it is hard hit!
When L trigger and R trigger are alternately and repeatedly timed, Taro Heibon moves!
The better the timing, the faster the acceleration!

In order to cope with the special ability of the girl, Taro Heibon will also grow.
Experience value increases as you clear the stage, and it will level up.
Since you can freely adjust the ability value by pressing the X button on the map screen,Let's adjust as necessary!
Let's check each ability value in the game manual.
The CHUG-A-LUG event begins when you touch alcohol placed on the table.
This event only pushes the button specified within the time limit!

プレイ時間3時間弱で、チャレンジモードを全クリアした。 また、平凡太郎(主人公)のレベルもカンスト。 キャストの女の子の様々な行動パターンは、パラメータの振り方を工夫したり、数をこなせば攻略方法が見えてくるので、理不尽な難易度ではない。 あとは、フリープレイでギャラリーを埋める作業が残っているが、女の子の立ち絵のポーズが一種類しかないので、モチベーションが……。 イラストに力を入れるともっと良ゲーになるはず。 暇つぶしにいいゲームだと思う。
Oh man. This will be part review and part manifesto. Does Steam have a limit to the length of reviews?! While you may only see a few minutes of me playing this game, I've actually logged hours with The Houchi Play when it was on the XBox 360 Indie Games store. Pretty sure I paid $2 there as well, or whatever the equivelant in Microsoft Points was. In "The Houchi Play" you play as Taro Heibon, an IT engineer in City X. A family man who secretly desires to be treated like a pig, a dog and otherwise humiliated by girls in cosplay outfits. To accomplish the goal, you engage in a butt-scooting simulator punctuated by brief drinking games (with a boost power-up for perfect chugging). Do so to creep up on the ladies when they're not paying attention. Different girls have different patterns and behaviors. It's kinda a stripped down sneaking version of Punch-Out. You have to learn the different character's (somewhat limited) tells and sneak around based on that. The pixel graphics a great and harkent back tot he NEC PC titles of the 90's. Solid soundtrack and the controls feel good. The depth and difficulty is on par with an arcade game, replayability only for novelty or highscore hunting purposes. Kohei Gallery had a few titles on that marketplace and the one thing they all had in common was irreverant charm. There's something about wacky ass, Japanese video games that the world is currently lacking. It might just be me on my old man soapbox, but there was a time where a small team or a single person could create a game. That offered unparalelled freedom compared to what you'll find today. Games are big business. When a publisher is spending hundreds of millions of dollars, they're not likely to take a lot of risks. It saddens me that you just don't see bizarre Japanese games like the days of old. Games like The Houchi Play give me hope that the world hasn't given up on making weird video games. I'm thrilled that Kohei Gallery is now on Steam and can't wait for more.
概要はストアの説明欄にある通りです。コスプレメイドさんに気づかれないよう近づいていくゲームです。 注意点があるとすれば、私だけかもしれませんが、キーボードでプレイすると平凡太郎君が全然移動しません。。。コントローラー推奨です。
게임 플레이 내내 시로부타! 나 머머리! 같은 매도를 들을수 있다는건 매우 매력적이지만 클리어시 보상이 없다는건 매우 슬픈 일입니다. 인간적으로 엣찌한 CG 라도 띄워줘야 하는거 아닌가요? 소재는 꽤 괜찮다고 생각합니만 갈수록 더러운 패턴 때문에 혈압이 상승하기도 합니다.
There's not much going on in this game. The gameplay couldn't be more repetitive: do two drinking QTEs as you creep along the screen to the girl, repeat 5x per girl. There's no interesting environmental interaction or visual queues. The game doesn't even lean into the player character being "super masochistic," once you finish a stage everyone's all smiles. He never really seems to get abused, verbally or otherwise. Not very fun, only sort of marginally funny thanks to the intro text.
素晴らしいゲームです。
I played this game for a very short period of time . But long enough to decide that for me at least it was Just not very interesting .The game has as far as i can tell Has no nudity or anything that your average person would consider sexual although the game does have a deviant sexual theme . It did not have the game theme that i thought it had . Fair warning due to the nature of the game this game review will be discussing deviant sexual practices . I decided to give the game a positive review because it does deliver exactly what it says does on the store page. But not in the context I thought it would there is nothing else to the game . Other than what is presented on the store page . The games theme is female domination and public humiliation used in a BD/SM context At the start of the game you get a game screen that tells you that Taro is a super masochist . That likes to be verbally abused by Cos play girls . community screen shot http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1104390335 The goal of the game is to move Taro as close as possible to the Cos play girl while her back is turned . Presumably Taro can be close enough so he is unable to escape the verbal abuse the Cos play girl will give him. Once you move Taro as close as possible to the Cos play girl she turns around and Taro smiles . I did not Think that the games theme would be one of male sexual humiliation and female domination . I thought this game was going to be about a shy guy approaching girls and trying to pick them up . before you purchase this game look at lets play videos on you tube to decide if this is something you want to spend your money on.
