Thanks for the review. The game is based on extensive research and everything is authentic.
Mokuko’s parents died when she was 14. Nakaari gave her a job at the inn and she’s been working there for two years, hence she is experienced as a maid, nothing more. There was no formal schooling for the masses and children started working from about 12. It was normal for teenage girls to be employed as maids at inns during this period. In fact, it still is, albeit a little older once they’ve completed school.
Each guest had their own maid. Mokuko did not serve your next-door neighbour. Sex is never mentioned, although it is implied by the terms ‘extra service’ and ‘amorous activity’.
This is only the second game I’ve written that has a content warning. (The first was for mild horror.) As half of your review is based on a couple of sentences in the game and you have read a lot into it that wasn’t there, I’d be very interested to hear what others think. Should I perhaps do a post-comp version that applies modern morals to a historically accurate game and make Mokuko older or should I ignore the extra service that was normally provided in these inns? There are many factors that are interlinked in the story, so I’d have to be careful not to break something. Rather than pollute Mike’s reviews, you might like to respond in the game’s announcement topic.
