I enjoy management games and given how absolutely mind-blowingly good the storytelling and immersion of the developer's following game (Love of Magic) is, I decided to give it a go. Personally, I prefer photorealistic 3d models, but nonetheless gameplay and story is foremost for me.
This game is quite short, and feels like it was originally meant for much more. Some elements seem to do nothing, and it feels like there was a lot of setup to expand further. Within that, the biggest disappointment for me is that all the porn movies you create are storied events. While there is nothing wrong with those events in themselves, I would have expected to be able to manage my porn studio with more options; cast girls, update equipment/studio etc. These "non-story" porn movies didn't necessarily have to come with scenes, even. That aspect seems underdeveloped, and again feels like there were plans for more originally.
However, feelings that the original intent was never followed through, the game is indeed good and enjoyable as it is now. There's nothing overly exciting about the story, but equally, it's not mundane or the usual college/landlady stuff. If it were a book, I'd liken it to something casual and relaxed that you may enjoy reading on a single train journey.
In short, a decent and brief management game with simple gameplay elements. The story is decent, but not extraordinary. Grind is basically nonexistent, despite perhaps it being expected it a game like this.
Overall an enjoyable experience.
