The Taming Massage Parlor ~Mari's Story~

刚打完真结局，就前四周比较难搞，第五周就开始爽了，第六周就是自由模式，简单说一说：不建议在更衣室偷窥没有用被发现直接触发入狱结局重新从第一周开始，自尊等级低的时候搞H导致心情值扣为0也会触发入狱，建议自尊没到5之前还是忍住老老实实按右上角任务栏做任务，因为任务栏的任务是硬性要求，需全部完成，只要每一天任务都搞完自尊等级就是一天提升一次，如果任务栏有任务完成会导致自尊等级不会提升，调情互动任务选表现里的说撩人的话，深度兴趣相关对话的任务选聊动画，疲劳值分为正面上下背面上下互动至达成任务条件即可，时间按摩为80秒，聊XX为120秒，后期可以用来跳过时间，睡眠值：90%以前为清醒状态，90%至140%是恍惚阶段，140%至200%是深度睡眠阶段，可以在深度睡眠阶段抽插，语言互动和翻身都会减少睡眠值，翻身会减少大量睡眠值将玛丽变为清醒状态，其次就是羞耻度的提升也非常重要，前期羞耻度会随时间降低等级中高的行为和颜色话题互动均可提升羞耻度，提升的羞耻度等级中的互动行为单独为一类可以提升自尊，等级高的互动，颜色话题互动为另一类不可以提升，到第五周如果自尊不足5的话玛丽就会被ntr导致失败结局，剧情和回忆耐心点一遍过，没被牛拿下玛丽就是真结局，首先是每天完成全部任务，维持心情值在一个较高的水平，另一个关键是羞耻度的提升，多次实验，前期只需要在结算前将羞耻度通过身体部位是等级中的互动维持在羞耻度：高结合上述条件满足即可稳定提升自尊等级，再次提醒：在到达第五周自尊5之前不要进行偷窥，等级高的互动，除任务栏要求当天进行颜色话题的日期，以外不要进行颜色话题互动，不要偷窥

跟前作比较起来QTE优化了，操作顺手好多了 。兄弟别心急，心急的这个就不适合你了 。这次与其说是续作不如说是补完了故事迎来大团圆结局了吧，内容有点对不起价钱，难怪差评那么多 。 以下内容涉及剧透 —————- 这次只有1个真结局可以完成游戏，其余皆会导致游戏结束重来，真结局后进入无限模式 。暂时已知4个坏结局，建议从第一周到五周任何色色都不要做，尽量提高女主心情，就算偷做完也要把女主情欲值压回0%，稍微拉高一点都会被NTR，必须撑到进入无限模式 。在第六周可以明目张胆在清醒状态下色色了，也不用再压情欲值，但也会触发坏结局，只能偷偷做 。

[h1] Review of The Taming Massage Parlor ~Mari’s Story~ [/h1] [i]This game feels like a calm, intimate visual novel with light simulation elements, focused almost entirely on how the relationship between the protagonist and Mari slowly develops inside the massage parlor. It doesn’t aim for action or complex mechanics, but rather for atmosphere, slow pacing, and emotional connection, so from the start it’s clear what kind of audience it targets.[/i] [table] [tr] [th]🧭 Concept and gameplay[/th] [th]Everything moves forward through dialogue, simple choices, and trust progression.

I really enjoyed seeing a sequel of MASSAGE MY EX-BULLY, I liked that they added more features and more poses. I love interactive games.

First and foremost thoroughly enjoy the interaction aspect of the game. Story did seem a little rush or dry but I think the story isn't really needed to begin with. After reading the comments about the previous game (Massage my Ex-Bully) I actually went back and purchase that one as well to see the improvements and changes from the First one to This one. Originally I purchased this game thinking it was a Women's Massage Game or I I had the ability to switch between Mc and Dana but no avail. It would be nice if the Developers include a DLC or make it a third game, they would have my money. Wish there was tools like in the first game to make the interactions easier for Mood Levels. Interaction: 10/10 Story: 6.5/10 (Glad it's there but not needed) Replayability: 9.5/10

A really neat H masseur game. In my opinion it's simple enough and neat. I really like Mari's character and just llike how the trailer describes: how she becomes more confident both in attitude and in looks. I personally didn't expect seeing her growth be so sweet but it was a pleasant surprise. My one gripe: at the start when Mari is a shut in she has very few expressions, making it hard both to make- and then to realize that you made the correct talking points. Though that can be monitored on your tasks list but still would have loved to guess from her expressions that I made the right choice. I also have to compliment that all the games features become available if Mari becomes too sleepy but its still your choice wether to remain wholesome or take the opportunity, Options like these are what gives games replayability. All in all neat game, would recommend.

this game is ♥♥♥♥. either its a clone of 'massage my ex-bully' or its a sequel. regardless its slow. personally, an option to speed up massage animations and dialogue would be better than to wait for the time for each action takes to tick over. multiple times i've achieved each objective with the massage and there is still time left that I can't skip. those are the main things I've noticed. animations seem alright but I can't really say much since most of my gameplay was ruined by just how slow each action takes.

The game mechanics have been improved a lot from the previous entry, does feel like you are actually interacting with the character altough in a minor degree but feels satisfying nonetheless, personally i like those details about preferences as it "appeal" more to different gooners but its like the previous one a very short game, after some interactions you are left with little to do, and when you reach the ending you are free to do anything but nothing else to achieve, of course every game need to end at some point, just the game too short and still lack content, hopefully next entry expand its concept. That aside i enjoyed Mari character, gotta admit among my favorites archetypes, her design was good and the thing about... you know... minor things like... the color of those and... how full the forest deh... a very nice touch~ Looking forward to what they will offer next time, and if they will add other minor details like accessories (cause those would be very nice)

전작했으니 산건데 이딴걸 돈주고 사는 나도 한심하고 파는 놈도 양심이 참 없다

The Taming Massage Parlor: Mari's Story combines visual novel storytelling with light business simulation, creating an experience that revolves around personal growth, customer management, and narrative progression. Players follow Mari as she begins a new chapter of her life in a massage parlor, gradually learning the trade while overcoming various personal and professional challenges. Rather than relying exclusively on its adult premise, the game emphasizes steady progression through daily routines, relationship building, and business improvement, giving players a clear sense of accomplishment as new opportunities and story events become available. The gameplay centers on balancing work responsibilities with character development. Each successful day earns income that can be invested into improving Mari's abilities and unlocking additional features. As her experience increases, players gain access to more advanced services, fresh interactions, and expanded gameplay systems. This progression loop creates satisfying momentum, encouraging continued play by consistently rewarding time invested with meaningful upgrades and story content. Although the management mechanics remain relatively simple compared to dedicated simulation titles, they effectively support the game's overall pacing without becoming overly demanding. Storytelling is another area where the game makes a positive impression. Conversations gradually reveal more about Mari's personality and the individuals she encounters throughout her journey. Supporting characters receive enough attention to make their interactions feel worthwhile, while player choices influence the order and availability of various scenes. Although the narrative is not built around dramatic twists or complex branching paths, it succeeds in making Mari's development feel genuine as she gains confidence and experience over time. This emphasis on character interactions gives the game additional appeal beyond its simulation elements. Visually, the game embraces a colorful anime-inspired presentation that suits its tone well. Character artwork is expressive and polished, helping conversations feel lively and emotionally engaging. The illustrations showcase a consistent artistic style, while the user interface remains easy to navigate during both story sequences and management tasks. Menus are straightforward, making it simple to monitor progression, purchase upgrades, and move through the game's daily routine without unnecessary complexity. While environmental variety is somewhat limited, the attractive character designs remain one of the title's strongest visual features. The game's pacing benefits from the way it alternates between narrative scenes and business management. Players spend time interacting with customers, earning money, enhancing Mari's capabilities, and unlocking new story events in a cycle that rarely feels stagnant during the early and middle portions of the experience. The gradual introduction of additional content helps maintain interest, providing enough variety to keep progression engaging. However, players who spend long sessions grinding for currency or specific unlocks may eventually notice repetitive gameplay patterns, particularly when repeating similar daily activities. As an adult-oriented title, mature content naturally plays a significant role in the overall package. However, these scenes are integrated into the progression system rather than existing as isolated rewards. Unlockable events are tied to Mari's growth, customer relationships, and overall advancement, making the content feel connected to the game's broader structure. Players interested in both visual novels and simulation mechanics are likely to appreciate this balance, while those looking for deep strategic management or an extensive branching narrative may find the overall scope more modest than expected. Despite its strengths, there are areas where the experience could be expanded. The management systems provide enjoyable progression but lack the complexity found in more robust business simulators. Likewise, some daily activities eventually become repetitive once players have become familiar with the gameplay loop. Even so, the combination of consistent rewards, attractive artwork, and ongoing story development helps offset these shortcomings and provides enough incentive to continue unlocking new scenes and upgrades. Overall, The Taming Massage Parlor: Mari's Story delivers an enjoyable blend of visual novel storytelling and accessible simulation mechanics. Its strongest qualities lie in its steady sense of progression, appealing presentation, and focus on character development, allowing it to stand out within its niche. While its streamlined management systems and repetitive late-game routine prevent it from reaching exceptional heights, it remains a polished and entertaining experience for players seeking an adult visual novel with meaningful progression and light business simulation elements. Rating: 7/10
