I don't generally review adult games, (largey due to Blogger's negative stance toward adult content) but if you're interested in non-smut game reviews, check out Let's Game. I also try to include walkthroughs for smut games on there whenever possible; some of the quest walkthroughs for "Princess Trainer" are over there as they contain no smut.
If this review, and the coming walkthroughs turn out popular, I may start reviewing adult games more regularly.
In “Princess Trainer” the player
takes on the role of a slave trainer hired by Jafar to train Princess
Jasmine to become the perfect wife for him. The game is sure to
appeal to people who want a smut game focused around BDSM, slave and
master training and bimbofication. The art style has a smutty Disney
feel to fit the storyline and the animations through the game are
mostly well-done. But “Princess Trainer” is not without its
faults.
The biggest fault the game has is that
it's incredibly grindy. Before the player can proceed with the smut
content of the game it's necessary to send Jasmine out to work for
many, many days in order to collect enough money to carry on with the
story. While some wait can make for good gameplay, an excessive wait
makes for grindy gameplay and really bad smut appeal.
“Princess Trainer” is no where near
as much of a grind as Akabur's “Witch Trainer,” but the Gold
Edition has definitely increased the grind from the older game by
adding new things that need purchased but not adding more effective
ways to make money in the early game. And that's not even counting
the challenges, which are even more grinding to complete.
To go on with gameplay related issues,
quest instructions are often extremely vague leading a player to just
go random places over and over, either with Jasmine or without her,
to see if a scene will finally play. Lucky for everyone, I put together a quest walkthrough you can find here.
Moving on from gameplay, the characters
themselves have some problems. Princess Jasmine was once the star of
the game, but has taken a backseat to original characters in the Gold
Edition. Jasmine becomes a bland-by-comparison way to grind to make
money to pay to do the quests for the other girls instead of the
focus of the game. That doesn't gel well with the title being
“Princess Trainer.”
Further, the player doesn't even train
Princess Jasmine. The player actually just forces Jasmine to work
some days and then attend the Jafar Slave Girl Academy on other days
after she's earned enough to attend classes. The school trains her
and the player simply has various sex scenes with her that show how
she's becoming more submissive as she attends more classes.
Worst of all, Jasmine's stats don't
affect anything except how she acts in her bedroom and in unlocking
the various sex scenes. The game seems to have a linear story
prepared, where Princess Jasmine acts snobby and rebellious at first,
then gradually becomes more willing to be a slave, but the game
allows the player to access scenes in a variety of orders that make
her personality seem to be all over the place. This could have even
fixed by simply streamlining the story to only take place in a
specific order. As it is, it ends up looking like the player should
get their money back from the Academy for poor training.
In the original game both of these
Jasmine-related issues stood out less as a problem because there was
less content to get out of order and it was the focus of the game.
Force Jasmine to work, force her to attend school, have sex with her
and then send her out into public to do unspeakably lewd acts that
make the population of Agrabah hate her. In the Gold Edition of
“Princess Trainer” this lackluster gameplay for the princess
stands out like a sore thumb because there's a much more indepth and
interactive method of training one of the original characters, a bar
waitress named Iris.
The scenes training Iris to enjoy
public nudity, humiliation and the player's choice of lewd acts are
guaranteed to be enjoyable to anyone who likes the idea of slave
training, humiliation and bimbofication. The problem with this is,
it's the type of indepth content that should have been given to the
title character.
There's also Lola, another original
character who can move into the player's household. Like Jasmine,
she just goes to the Slave Girl Academy during the day, though there
is a slightly different story reason for doing it. Sadly, this story
reason was somewhat disturbing in the middle of a bunch of smut
content. Essentially, if someone's not into a grown woman acting like
a petulant child crying during sex, they're not going to enjoy the
start of Lola's training quest. It can certainly put an unexpected
and sudden damper on any lewd mood a player may have had going.
And finally there's Azalea, another
original character who is the local seamstress. Her mother may have
been selling more than dresses out of her store long ago. Like Iris,
her content overshadows both Jasmine and Lola for how indepth it is
and for allowing the player a measure of control over activities.
After assisting Azalea with her store, making it bigger and more
grand so that it draws more and richer customers, Azalea reveals her
mother's past and the player has the option, through various scenes,
to push her to become the town whore or remain fairly chaste (for a
smut game) and only interested in giving special services to the
player.
