    The game's story is generally straightforward and relatively short, with the main narrative focused on managing a pool facility and developing romantic subplots with three heroines. While some find the plot engaging and humorous with character growth and interesting dialogue, others feel it lacks depth and complexity, fitting its lighter, themed setting. The story includes mature themes such as cuckolding, and although not highly intricate, it is complemented by animations and allows player choice in following different storylines.

    • “I’ve already got the platinum trophy it’s a fantastic game with a great story.”
    • “Of the 3 fmcs I think each character had an interesting story; I liked learning about each one. There was a logbook that tracked all the info you collect and it was cool reading details about characters.”
    • “The story is pretty straightforward, but it's engaging and interesting.”
    • “You could reasonably speed run the 2 main storylines in under 2 hours and return the game.”
    • “Animations are great but the depth and complexity of the game's story is almost non-existent.”
    • “Setting aside the short introduction, which shows the protagonist, a retired swimmer, winning the pool facility in a card game and being tasked with managing it, the 'main' story essentially ends there.”

    The gameplay is generally smooth, straightforward, and engaging, with unique mechanics like corruption and domination adding depth to the experience. While some find the management aspects and reputation balancing a bit tedious or easy, mini-games and variety help keep the gameplay enjoyable and break monotony. Overall, it offers a fun, linear progression with elements that provide a sense of player autonomy within the story.

    • “Gameplay is pretty smooth and straightforward, though the reputation numbers could use rebalancing (it's too easy to max it).”
    • “The gameplay style is linear but it doesn't feel restrictive.”
    • “Ntraholic felt longer because of the corruption mechanic and managing the husband's suspicion.”
    • “Each game has its own mechanic which is very fitting, but it might as well just not be there.”
    • “The gameplay during the scenes need to be rechecked though.”

    Grinding in the game receives mixed feedback, with some finding it tedious and repetitive due to busywork and slow money-earning methods, while others appreciate occasional variety in minigames that break the monotony. Compared to previous titles, the grind feels more demanding, which may affect enjoyment for some players.

    • “Minigames are not tedious.”
    • “You play as a confident alpha male: you rake in cash fast (no tedious grinding) and strive for dominance, rather than sharing a bed with 300-kilogram hulks.”
    • “You've added a ton of tedious grinding where you're constantly humiliated and dragged through the mud.”
    • “The only downside I find with the game is that it requires significantly more grinding than previous titles, since you absolutely must increase the pool's popularity and to do that, you need a lot of money, which can be earned primarily through one method that's quite slow to complete.”
    • “Warning: the mini-games can get tedious and repetitive (this can vary from person to person).”
