Turnberry Manor, a review by Grimm Sharlak Ah, sex romps. In the tradition of Gamma Gals, TM pretty much gives you a house full of horny girls to score with. The actual point of the game is to set up home schooling and the like for your charges, but when you start the game and are banging one of the maids within three turns, you know what you’re in store for. I think this game certainly puts the “romp” in sex romp, as it never takes itself too seriously. Aside from one (slightly difficult to obtain) encounter, the mood is light throughout. All the various ladies are hot for your body, and you’re hot for theirs. It’s all we need, really. Puzzles/Gameplay: Remember how I said you’d be diddling the maid within the first five minutes? That’s about as taxing as Turnberry gets. Most of the puzzles are either saying or obtaining the right thing to get the girls in the mood. The trick is in “unlocking” the girls, either by scoring with others, or calling them to the house for various reasons. The only real struggle I had were with the occasional locked door and un-examinable (but readable) item. There are certainly no instances of guess-the-verb here, as any special commands necessary are spelled out for you. Sex: I’m a big fan of the sex in this game. It doesn’t aim to be the height of erotica or anything of the sort, and is instead some simple, hot sex. Some may find that once it gets down to business, the girls in the game become foul-mouthed horndogs, but that’s quite forgivable considering the tone and goals of the game. The game never goes much further than straight-up sex, but there’s occasional bits of voyeurism and lesbianism thrown in for some variety. All in all, a neat little AIF package. Technical: Nothing much to report here, aside from one or two very minor quibbles, which I won’t mention here. Intangibles: If you’re expecting more realistic characters, with real motivations out of getting laid/getting home schooled, you’re in the wrong place. Essentially it is a game for those that don’t take themselves or their smut too seriously. Final Thoughts: The bottom line is I thoroughly enjoyed Turnberry Manor. Along with only a few other AIF games, it’s one I still pull out for a play through when I recall some of its finer moments. There’s not much more to say, really. It’s just straight up fun, with some titillation thrown in. It only loses points due to not exactly breaking the mould of an AIF game, and that it’s in a rather similar setting. It’s down very well, though. Rating: B+ |
