Hentai Animations Visual Novel Review: Body Pay

Written by DinaNGina, edited by Otaku Apologist

Body Pay is a puzzle and visual novel developed by Cheese Burger Studio released in April 19, 2024. Download on Nutaku for $7.99. For PC Windows. Has English voice acting. Uncensored genitals.

Set in the year 2067, Body Pay introduces a new payment app that replaces traditional currency with something far more intimate. Conveniently for us, we work as a cashier at a convenience store where plenty of attractive women are more than willing to use this unusual service.

Story

The story follows our protagonist as he interacts with various women shopping at the store. Before long, they begin using Body Pay as their preferred method of payment, leading to increasingly intimate encounters that grow spicier as each storyline progresses. The game features four different routes: the housewife MILF, the influencer, the gyaru, and the office worker. Chances are at least one of them will fit your tastes — if not all of them. While the game presents the routes in a chronological order, you’re free to start with whichever character interests you most.

The housewife route leans more toward the vanilla side. Early on, we notice the wedding ring on her finger, but that doesn’t stop her from becoming one of our regular Body Pay customers. As the relationship develops, things escalate further when her husband eventually joins in on the fun.

Next, we meet a blonde influencer who quickly reveals she also works as an adult content creator. After her first encounter with Body Pay, she invites us to her home to assist as part of the “filming crew.” Things rapidly spiral from there, with live broadcasts in front of an audience of over 1,000 viewers cheering us on in chat. Over time, our role evolves from cashier to full-on manager and editor for her online career.

Then there’s the gyaru — a rude, trashy customer infamous for her bad attitude and drinking habits. Our encounters with her often begin in the store’s cramped storage room, but as her route progresses, it becomes clear she has a serious thrill for public escapades. Her storyline brings some of the game’s more chaotic and shameless energy.

Finally, we have the strict corporate office worker with a sharp tongue and an even sharper personality. She constantly seems irritated by the incompetence of everyone around her — especially us. Beneath her cold exterior, however, her storyline slowly reveals a more vulnerable side, and it ends up taking a few unexpected twists along the way.

Gameplay

Body Pay blends visual novel storytelling with light reflex-based gameplay. In practice, it feels like a rhythm game without the rhythm: different items move along the convenience store conveyor belt, and you must quickly press the corresponding buttons as they appear. There’s no actual beat to follow, but faster reactions reward you with higher scores. Thankfully, the difficulty strikes a decent balance: it’s neither painfully easy nor frustratingly demanding.

These gameplay sections are woven between the visual novel segments to give the adult scenes some narrative progression. However, the pacing feels uneven since the main story only advances during stages 3, 6, 9, and 12. Likewise, the CG scenes are limited to chapters 6 and 9, with each scene ending in a choice between two variants. The second option always requires a higher score and is essentially a more extreme version of the first: for example, a standard blowjob scene versus one that adds a titfuck to the blowjob. Because of this structure, the repetitive gameplay loop can start to feel tedious before long.

Graphics

The artwork is one of the game’s strongest aspects. The character designs are attractive and varied, with each of them fitting a distinct archetype despite sharing the game’s preference for exaggerated curves and large breasts. The animations are also surprisingly fluid, helping the cast feel lively rather than static. Characters idle naturally during conversations, shift expressions smoothly, and display subtle movements that make scenes feel more dynamic than the average low-budget visual novel.

Voice Acting and SFX

Voice acting is fairly limited, consisting mostly of moans, grunts, and short reactions, but what’s there is well-timed and effective. A few voiced lines and sentences are sprinkled throughout the game, adding some extra personality to the characters. The sound design complements the atmosphere nicely as well, with soft and bubbly sound effects that recreate the cozy ambience of a Japanese convenience store.

Music

The soundtrack is easily the weakest part of the presentation. The game only features a single music track throughout the entire experience. While it’s pleasant enough at first, hearing the same tune loop endlessly causes it to become repetitive and grating after only a short time.

Hentai

All the adult content is included in the basegame, no DLC needed. All the women have big breasts so if you’re into petite this might not be the game for you. However, there’s something for everyone: netorare, domination, public sex, fisting, watersports and more. My only complaint is that each route’s ending cutscene only shows a still image of the character from their initial encounter, fully clothed. Something else to keep in mind is that all these plotlines end in the character becoming the protagonist’s sex toy. The tone depends a lot on the storyline you choose to play but there’s a strong tendency towards corruption, especially in the gyaru’s storyline (and also to a lesser extent in the office worker’s).

The animations are also surprisingly fluid.

Concluding Words

Body Pay is a fun and straightforward puzzle visual novel with a small yet charming cast of characters and enough variety in its kinks and scenarios to appeal to a wide audience. Its vibrant art style stands out immediately and gives the game a polished, modern look, even if some of the characters feel a little shallow in terms of personality and development.

That said, the gameplay loop becomes repetitive fairly quickly, especially when paired with the game’s single endlessly looping music track. There are also no real sexual gameplay mechanics involved — progression simply rewards you with cutscenes after completing stages 6 and 9 for each heroine. Even so, the game succeeds as a light, casual experience with attractive visuals and enough fanservice to keep things entertaining throughout its short runtime. Game download.
