Foreword
I originally published a review for Lessons with Chii-chan on March 12th, 2020. I have updated that review, to reflect my thoughts on this game as of June, 2020.
Gameplay
. . . in a nutshell
Read my article on visual novels.
out the shell. . .
There are very little dialogue choices to make, but you do have some influence on what happens during sex scenes. In total, you could probably count the number of player-choices on one hand. In other words, this is an extremely linear visual novel.
. . . and yes! This is a game you can play one-handed!
Story
Muroto Kouta is a chubby, single man who’s otherwise your average dude. During a stroll to his local grocery store, he encounters Shiina Chieri (known as the “Sexy Queen of Sex” during her former years). When she speaks to Muroto, Chieri takes on a suspiciously sweet ‘n smutty personality. Muroto allows her to follow him back to his apartment. It’s as if she loves everything there’s to love about him, from his curvy body to his “eco-friendly” rants.
Turns out, she’s failing school and kissing Kouta’s rear in hopes he’ll tutor her (for free).
Figures. Women, am I right? Chieri coughs up her sexual services in exchange for Kouta’s help. She claims to have a boyfriend, but that doesn’t stop her from providing sexual favors day-in and day-out for Kouta! But in her defense, once we learn more about this boyfriend, he’s kind of scummy.
And smutty as Chieri is, he doesn’t deserve her one bit.
Personally, I couldn’t get past Chieri as a character. Her. . . lack of smarts hurt my brain. I think I liked Kouta a lot more than her. He’s good at cooking, eco-friendly, and a smartie pants. He’s super pervy, but at least he’s good for something other than sex! But holy wow, was Chieri a steamy pile of goodness.
Visuals
The title menu looks attractive, with a well-placed title and selections. “Gallery” and “Scene Replay” allow you to review already-encountered content, keeping your hard-earned saucy stuff at your finger tips. From “Settings”, you can adjust a variety of sound and display preferences. Unfortunately, when set to “Fullscreen” the window does not actually fill the screen, leaving big ugly black bars on each side of the screen.
I was dissapointed by the lack of character portraits. Chieri has one portrait, with a wide selection of facial expressions and a handful of clothes. For a game that focuses on two characters, you’d think more budget could be put into those characters (outside of the sex scenes).
The Goods
The lewd artwork is awesome! It’s spectacularly drawn, dare I say professional. It’s totally uncensored, and you get to see Kouto (the dude’s) face! A lot of hentai games will “censor” the guys’ face, which I find off putting. Faceless men creep me out, and totally kill the mood. Expect creamy, juicy male-on-female consensual action.
Verdict
Wait for a strong sale — however, I do recommend this title. If you enjoy linear, story heavy visual novels, then this game might be for you. It’s a bit pricier than the average novel, but that’s okay. This title rocks excellent artwork and lots of words for you to enjoy. However, I’d still keep an eye for when this game goes on sale.
