Lingeries



A 2001 H-game, Lingeries is a Hentai Visual Novel about a lingerie company.

Watari Soujirou gets a job at lingerie company BBB solely because he heard they have a high percentage of cute female office workers than most other companies. He gets hired as management officer, but sees himself broiled in a corporate war between the president, the man who hired him, and the vice-president. While the president faction focuses on sales, the vice-president faction is more focused on technology.

As result, the company has two planning departments instead of one, but the one who Watari manages has a time set to be terminated since it's considered redundant: three months. He has three months to improve, and is told he can do whatever he wants to extract the most of his co-workers.

Of course, with Watari being the womanizer he is, that involves about getting close to his female co-workers, not only for practical reasons but to flirt and sexually harass them in order to have sex with them.

As a Simulation Game, Lingeries involves Watari managing his cow-workers around while sometimes working by himself. Different meters will affect his levels of exhaustion, emotional state, and ability to do work. And also, of course, he can construct relationships with his targets and stimulate their libidos, with a specific option to sexually harass them. In the weekends, he can buy things that may help on his relationships, rest, entertain himself, study to be better at his job, and even work extra, though he can't interact with his targets since they're resting. His objective is to fill a quota so at the end of the three months he may keep his position, with weekly inspections so the game can inform you if you're doing your job well or not.

Adapted in a three-episode OVA that changed the protagonist' name to Yusuke Nakanishi. Developed and published by Mink and M no Violet.
