You start with this half-dead hotel that looks like it smells of cheap cleaner and old sex, and somehow it becomes this weird little universe where every floor has a different flavor of horny drama. It looks like a normal dating sim at first, like “oh yeah, I’ll just talk to the girls, raise some stats, classic stuff”, and then three scenes later you’re holding a trembling elf maid by the hips while she tries to act all proper and obedient and ends up squirting all over the new bedsheets you saved up to buy. And you’re thinking: ok, I just wanted romance, why is there a menu option for nipple clothespins in the housekeeping budget. But you still click it.

The hotel thing works too well. Everyone is under your roof, so you bump into them doing absolutely everything. You go into a hallway thinking you’re just going to check repairs, and you catch one girl “cleaning” a window with her tits pressed against the glass, tongue out, full ahegao, while someone down in the street could totally see her. It counts as voyeur and exhib stuff at the same time and the game doesn’t even wink at you, it just lets it happen, like yeah, this is just Tuesday here. You can be the pure romance guy and still the world keeps trying to corrupt you. There’s a religious girl praying in one scene, acting shy like a virgin, and later you’re there timing her orgasm denial with your phone while she begs for just one more thrust and you’re like, ok, maybe I’m not “pure” anymore. I kept telling myself I’m avoiding the nastier paths, and two minutes later I’m watching a lactation event where I was only trying to give comfort and suddenly there’s warm milk and a helpless girl calling you “master” in this shaky voice. Total accident. Kind of.

What really got me is how your role shifts without a big “you are a trainer now” sign. One moment you’re like a soft-spoken manager who buys cute maid outfits and simple cosplay ears, the next you’re running what is basically a private bdsm spa on the top floor, where you decide who gets the collar and who just gets spanked until their ass is bright red and they can’t sit in the café. Some girls push you around too, it’s not just male dom. There’s a yandere type that goes from clingy to “if you fuck anyone else I’ll break their legs” energy, and she rides you so hard you legit feel like the slave instead of the trainer. Then later the same night another girl kneels down in the lobby and gives you a slow, careful blowjob like it’s a love letter, and you remember why you came here for romance at all. But then there’s some fucked up family route on the side, anal stuff mixed with “we shouldn’t do this” whispers, a footjob in the laundry room, a titfuck in the elevator when the doors keep almost opening, group sex in a suite where everyone’s moaning your name at once, and somewhere in the middle of that mess you’re still checking income stats on your phone and thinking about upgrade costs like an idiot. The hotel keeps growing, the harem keeps getting bigger, some girls get their breasts reduced while others suddenly swell up like a fantasy elf breeding project, and you’re walking around your own building knowing exactly which room has a girl quietly masturbating, which one hides a camera for your voyeur habit, and which bed has fresh cum drying in the sheets because you didn’t even bother with pulling out after that last creampie. It’s romantic in the trashiest way, and trashy in a way that somehow still feels kind of sweet.

Mistbury looks like that kind of small anime town you see in the first episode, where the protagonist wakes up late, runs to school with toast in his mouth, and you already know nothing this peaceful is going to last. The game starts with that same “normal” vibe, except here the “normal” includes staring at bouncing tits in tight uniforms while pretending to care about homework. It feels like a horny mix of Persona and a cheap horror OVA from the 90s: classroom chats, weird rumors about disappearances, a teacher who is too hot and too kind, and a sense that the whole town is quietly fucked in the head. One moment you’re flirting with a shy classmate under the cherry trees, watching her slowly melt when the hero leans in and touches her thigh, and the next you’re sneaking around some creepy building, hearing whispers about Astaroth and feeling like the floor itself wants to swallow you. The game is not shy at all about the sex part. Girls don’t just blush and fade to black, they drop on their knees, take the protagonist’s cock in their mouth, drool running down their chin while their big tits bounce with every thrust. Positions are fully animated, you can see bodies grind and twist, you see her pussy getting stretched when you push inside, you see her ass open when you go for anal and she tries to act like she hates it but her voice cracks into moans. It’s like watching a horny “isekai to hell” show where the fanservice director went completely insane.

What I really like is how corruption wraps around the romance, not replacing it but poisoning it in slow motion. A sweet girl who at first only dares to hold hands after school becomes the one quietly masturbating in a bathroom stall, phone in her mouth to muffle the sounds, because some demonic influence made her cravings go wild. Later she offers her ass like it’s a love confession, cheeks red, eyes glassy, saying stuff like “If this makes you stay with me, use me however you want” while you rail her against a dirty wall. You can feel the town itself seducing the protagonist: haunted mansions where a ghostly woman pushes your face into her tits before trying to rip your soul out, a cultist nurse who mixes medical checkups with blowjob “therapy”, and those quiet nights where the main character just sits on his bed, phone glowing on the screen, watching a girl from school touch herself live, legs open, fingers rubbing her clit as she begs him to come over. It’s not subtle, but it does this funny thing where you start actually caring about a character, then the game throws her into some horror scenario and uses her body as the battleground. Sex is not just reward, it’s also how the darkness crawls in: every kiss a little too deep, every creampie inside her tight pussy a little too dangerous, every time she kneels to lick you clean after, you feel like she’s slipping further away from the “pure” schoolgirl she started as. And then, confusingly, sometimes it just turns into straight-up goofy hentai with a hot girl riding you in a storage room, school blazer half open, moaning your name like an overacted anime dub, and all that cosmic doom stuff can wait, because her tits are right there jumping in your face and the only horror is when the scene finally ends.
