Pleasure Room - Haunted Apartment

[後半に日本語レビューあり] [h1]Comfort or Haunt: A Ghost Landlord's Affection-Gauge Love Life[/h1] Having become a ghost bound to a single room, the protagonist watches over the loneliness and fear of each new tenant who moves in, choosing whether to comfort them or haunt them — a life sim where horror and H-elements intersect. The core of the game cycle lies in two tracked values: Heart (affection) and Fear. By touching everyday objects in the room — doors, mirrors, showers, beds, lights — the player observes each tenant's reactions and works out their likes and dislikes. Pleasing them raises Heart, while frightening them raises Fear, and reaching a certain threshold unlocks a fantastical dream sequence or an unsettling nightmare sequence in stages. Since the same character can lead to multiple outcomes depending on your choices, there's enjoyment in seeking out new reactions with each playthrough. Each tenant who appears has a distinct personality and set of preferences, and the process of discovering what makes each one tick is the real axis of play. Visually, the isometric pixel-art rooms are crafted with care, capturing an everyday sense of domestic life. The H-scenes themselves, on the…

this is a tough nut to sell so i'm not even going to try. the game is very barebone. the tutorial is on point. it tells you everything you need to know about the game. what to click for a good sleep and what to click for a bad sleep. but everything goes downhill after starting the actual game. you choose 1 of the 3 ladies to start their run. after the lady left during the day, you can choose 1 spot to haunt. good or bad, it doesn't tell you. after the lady return, you have 2 turns to haunt spots. again, good or bad, it doesn't tell you. after the 2 turns, the lady will go to sleep and the game will rate your score depending on what you did. if her mood is good, she will get a pleasure dream. what dream will depend on her comfort. if her mood is bad, she will get a nightmare dream and she will move out of the unit the next day, ending the run. the skip and pause button doesn't work. there are no options menu and the game is locked in windows format. the cgs, aka the dreams are honestly quite bland. it's a pity because i owned quite a few games from them and was hyped for this game but the disappointment after playing it is palpable. the achievements also didn't work because i'm pret…

Stay away or get a a severe discount. Great concept, horrible execution. Only positive is the cg art is really good, the game itself is really bad Tutorial doesn't help much and there is barely a game here.

To open, the sex scenes that You are probably here for are very bland, milk toast, unimagintive, and uninspired(as well as very few in number, and very short). To call the gameplay bland, and bare bones is almost giving it too much credit. As has been said in other reviews, You get three actions per cycle, and it is very opaque about what anything will even do until you actually do it, which will likely make you fail, causing the girl to have a nightmare, and for some reason immediately move out of the house. Which will end your run right there. Probably an attempt by the developer to pad the game length to above the two hour refund window, but it dosen't even do that well. My advise, give this game a hard pass, there are many other games that are way more worth Your money, and time than this generic slop.

Wanted to like it, pretty into the concept. The two meters are not labeled or explained well. A lot of waiting between the subject of the haunting going to work that are completely unnecessary. Very limited in the ghostly actions that can be taken. Sexual content is honestly lacking and mild. If this becomes more fleshed out, i.e. tracking dreams achieved, more escalating H scenes, a clue system, more ghostly actions, I would try it again because I am really interested in the concept.

I like the game and the art is very good.
