The Menagerie, a visual novel game developed by Lupiesoft and published by MangaGamer. Released for Windows on December 13, 2018. Download on Nutaku for $16.00. No voice acting. Uncensored pussy.
Rao-Ji is a lizard girl with a big futa dick. She’s been a slave since she hatched from an egg and her entire life has been spent tending to the whims of her mistress. But now she finds herself noticing all these other exotic slaves and she can’t help but wonder if her lizard snatch is still good enough.
STORY
Rao-Ji has spent her life at the beckon call of her mistress, Sabei. A collector of exotic anthropomorphic girls who is having trouble keeping it all together as some rowdy girls keep refusing to spread their legs on command. Rao-Ji is instructed by Sabei to train Monkey, a white-furred girl who likes to break things.
Along the way, she also meets slime girl Asumamiya who is fiercely protective of Monkey. There is also the foxy Jouya, a thicc MILF type who likes playing practical jokes on other people. Rao-Ji also comes across Aishi, a girl hanging upside down in bondage gear.
The game focuses on Rao-Ji learning trying to solve problems for everybody. She also finds herself disagreeing with Sabei’s methods and risks being sold off to someone else who only wants to use her for her body.
The writing for the game is good, if a little short. Each girl feels like they need a couple thousand more words to be really fleshed out. The personalities are fun and the names as exotic as their looks. The descriptive storytelling captures the atmosphere of this wildly imaginative environment.
GRAPHICS
Characters in the game have very unique, sensual designs. Each one has a distinctively different look and feel with a variety of body shapes from skinny to pudgy to small boobs and big fat titties. While the influences are clearly Japanese, there’s a very personal touch to the art style.
Some girls are futas while others have animal features or highly toned bodies. Sprites have limited poses and enough facial expressions.
Backgrounds are rich in detail and share the same art style as the character sprites. The color scheme looks interesting and makes the artwork pop. Thin edge lines with light shadows on their bodies. Sometimes the lighting on the backdrop conflicts with the sprites.
GAMEPLAY
The Menagerie is a visual novel game. You click on the screen to “turn the page”. Throughout the game you are presented with options to become a worthless fucktoy, you can earn your freedom or fall in love. The game has six girls to cozy with and features several different endings.
There are enough save slots for you to quickly backtrack and get all the endings. You can view unlocked CGs from the Gallery menu. Use the ‘Skip’ and ‘Auto’ buttons to speed through read parts of the game.
HENTAI
Sex in The Menagerie is passable. The game gives each girl a chance to have their way with you but scenes often leave you wanting more. They are more focused on intimacy than perversion and can come off as not having enough content.
Being dominated by Asumamiya was my favorite part. It robs Rao-Ji of power while taking advantage of the slime girl and her juicy tentacles. Sadly instead of fucking them, the tentacles are used to restrain Rao-Ji so Asumaniya can take her time riding the big fat cock.
In one route, Aishi and Sabei systematically turn Rao-Ji into a masochist by burning her with candle wax and stuffing her in bondage and a cock ring. This scene is the least sexy for me but will impress horny masochists all over the world. Play your cards right and stand a chance to eat Pru’s pussy in the library or stick your member up Jouya’s thicc ass. There is also a threesome scene with Asumamiya and Monkey and a quickue fuck with Aishi.
MUSIC
The game is brimming with good music. Music in the game is placed strategically. It creates a relaxing mood that helps you enjoy the events. Original instruments like the harp, violin and other wind instruments are used to create a range of exotic sounding melodies that feel like you’re in the middle-east. Some songs include synthetic instruments but the combination works well.
SOUND EFFECTS AND VOICE ACTING (SFX)
The Menagerie has no voice acting. Sound effects are extremely limited. The only noises I remember hearing are one or two doors slamming shut behind someone.
CONCLUDING WORDS
The Menagerie features a selection of weird-looking girls that will keep your dick hard for fap sessions to come. The art is beautiful and the music easy to listen to. The interesting characters leave a lot of room open for a sequel some day.
