[18+/RPG] One of the best clothed-H exclusive HJRPG ever. Manage lewd contracts and pay off huge debt or... HQ JP anime artwork, tons of immoral and fetish situations, great price.

[18+]『エニシアと契約紋 ～馬蹄通りの小聖女～』世界版。着衣Hにほぼ特化した内容でその筋の人には堪らないだろう。探索部分はスゴロク形式で戦闘もダイスと凝っている。Hシーンもシチュが山盛りでこの価格は鬼がかってるとしか言いようがない。文句なしにオススメの一本である。

This is an overall negative review with a thumbs up above it. Look, I've given thumbs ups for less, but I'm still disappointed.

I've been actively looking forward to this game for nearly a year. I discovered Shimobashira Workshop when I bought Magical Girl Celesphonia (which is fantastic).


I try to make decisions with the protagonist’s character in mind. Enishia is a nun, and she's in a corruption game, so I was willing to bet that there'd be some very pressing matters that would lead to her needing to sacrifice her piety in order to make some salacious stuff happen.

My 14-hour playtime happened almost entirely without anything sexy of note though. Some harassment, a breeze, someone giving her butt a squeeze. I am so so bored.

When I played Shimobashira’s other games, even the pure routes managed to be sexy.


Enishia and the Binding Brand makes design decisions that make a corruption game fall flat.

There are heart icons everywhere that indicate that engaging with a character is going to trigger something erotic. These are dead giveaways for Enishia to avoid, and there's no in-world reason for her to know this ahead of time. I would have preferred generic icons that at least encourage me to talk to NPCs to rely on clues for who to avoid.

Playing this is like hiring a dom, agreeing to terms, and then them spoiling the moment over and over by asking you “is it ok if I do this?”

This is a corruption game. Know your audience. Know the world you've created. If my character would avoid it, I'm supposed to also try to avoid it. I'm here to see it happen against our will, and against my best efforts to prevent it, not to play with my character like an adolescent that mushes Barbie and Ken dolls together. The game is supposed to make sexy things happen—not me.

Princess of Zeven (also published by Kagura Games) did this excellently. In that game, you are a princess who wants nothing to do with the town of lecherous men around you, but through sheer friction in attempting to accomplish your task, the protagonist and you as a player start deciding that sacrificing a bit of morality is actually probably the way to go. In that game, you slip, bit by bit, with your character. It knows that it is there to pressure you.


Enishia and the Binding Brand, however, doesn't seem to add an ounce of pressure after the initial big(?) number they give you. Big? I don't know what this game's economic situation is, so how am I supposed to be stressed about a number? Does any character in the game make check-ups with Enishia every day to say menacing things or put more pressure on her? Nope.

It's bewildering that they actively make Enishia agree to prevent interest on the debt. Interest alone might have solved the pressure issue. If I started doing my thing, but every day it showed me how much my interest grew, maybe I would have started considering some less saintly means of procuring that money.

But there's no need. No carrots nor sticks. You're just supposed to drive yourself to believe you have to do more. Big number is supposed to be scary enough. And when you're selecting your difficulty, it isn't obvious that you're selecting your debt, not your starting balance.


1. Many quests have English text that spans off the side of the screen, so you can't read it. You actually can't even read the contract at the beginning of the game either due to the lack of line wrapping.
2. There's a random encounter that asks you if you're sure you want to trade, and it's like... “sure about what? I don't see anything” and then you lose a random amount of money and get a random item if you agree. Not sure if it's a broken UI.
3. The characters you adventure with will repeat the same origin story as random events. It's not long, but is there a dearth of dialog available in the game, or were they just really expecting higher degrees of corruption to have more to randomize against?
4. Even knowing what you're trying to do, it's damn near impossible to figure out how to get to the final encounter on your own. A bug prevents the quest from being added to your questlines, then (despite there being a “time is of the essence” plot), the game sends you fishing, and you'll waste days in-game (and hours in real life) trying to find the fish you need. Then it makes you walk around aimlessly with no guidance across the entire world hoping to hear an indication that you've found the last spot. What were they thinking when they made this? It is terrible.


I guess I need to start a hard mode campaign and make all the bad choices. I just... I don't even know. Without believing in the threat the game pretends to have, what's the point? This game is a poorly constructed playground with the same tired tropes every other Kagura game has. If a studio that's made such excellent games is going to tread such well-worn ground... I just expected them to do it better.

Will be keeping my eyes out for the next release from these guys though. This studio has 2 games in my top 10, and 3/4 being quite good is a pretty solid success rate. Maybe I'll change my tune once I get into some of the raunchier stuff, but man... this game just feels sloppy. For them, I mean.

This game mind you, is better than most of Kagura's other offerings. It's just the worst Shimobashira Workshop game. If you haven't played Celesphonia, Ambrosia, Princess of Zeven, or Claire's Quest, maybe check them out first.

Had they not published it with the last quest being so dumb and broken, and had they put the dead-giveaway hearts behind an option in settings, the tone of this review would probably be far more positive. But hey, I didn't make the bad design decisions; I just played through them.

Enishia and the Binding Brand? A Journey of Sanctity and Sin! (ฅ'ω'ฅ)

"Are you ready to balance the scales of sanctity and sin?Navigate the delicate balance between sanctity and sin in this gripping tale of survival and morality."



Enishia and the Binding Brand takes players into the life of Enishia, a nun who finds herself in dire straits when the future of her church and attached orphanage is threatened by a massive debt. The game is set in the fantastical world of Megista, where Enishia must explore various morally ambiguous avenues to secure funds, from performing altruistic deeds to engaging in risqué activities, reflecting a deep conflict between her vows and the harsh realities of her situation.


The story unfolds as Enishia is confronted by a representative from the Zimmet Company, presenting her with a contract that binds her to an enormous debt. This initiates a complex narrative filled with mystery and moral decisions, pulling players into a world where every choice impacts Enishia's fate and the wellbeing of the orphans she cares for.

Players engage in a multifaceted gameplay system that includes managing church affairs, exploring dungeons in a board-game style, and participating in jobs that may compromise Enishia's virtues. The unique mix of RPG elements with strategic planning around Enishia's erotic parameter offers a nuanced approach to gameplay, where decisions truly matter.


Enishia and the Binding Brand is a profound role-playing experience that challenges players to navigate the murky waters between right and wrong. The game's ability to intertwine its compelling story with complex gameplay mechanics makes it a standout title, especially for those who appreciate a narrative that challenges moral convictions. If you're drawn to games that offer deep stories with meaningful choices, this game deserves your attention.
