Lessons with Chii-chan is a visual novel about a tutor and a girl failing school, and their blossoming love life.

- Disclaimer -
For the purposes of this review, the adult patch is installed.

Gameplay
This is a visual novel, as such the "gameplay" is mostly comprised of mashing the "enter" key as you read through text boxes. There are very little dialogue choices to make, but during sexual scenes you do have some influence on what happens. In total, you could probably count the number of player choices on one hand.

Story
You play as Muroto Kouta, a chubby, single man who's really your average dude. During a regular stroll to a grocery store, he stumbles upon a student named Shiina Chieri (also known as the "Sexy Queen of Sex"). She takes on a suspiciously sweet 'n smutty personality, and is quick to follow Kouta back to his apartment. It's as if she loves everything there's to love about him, from his curvy body to his "eco-friendly" rants.

Turns out, she's failing school and kissing Kouta's rear in hopes he'll tutor her (for free).

Figures. Women, am I right? Chieri coughs up her sexual services in exchange for Kouta's help. She (claims) to have a boyfriend, but that doesn't stop her from providing sexual favors day-in and day-out for Kouta! But in her defense, once we learn more about this boyfriend, he's kind of scummy.

And smutty as Chieri is, he doesn't deserve her one bit.

Personally, I couldn't get past Chieri as a character. Her. . . lack of smarts hurt my brain. I think I liked Kouta a lot more than her. He's good at cooking, eco-friendly, and a smartie pants. He's super pervy, but at least he's good for something other than sex! But holy wow, was Chieri a steamy pile of goodness.

Visuals
The title menu looks attractive, with a well-placed title and selections. "Gallery" and "Scene Replay" allow you to review already-encountered content, keeping your hard-earned saucy stuff at your finger tips. From "Settings", you can adjust a variety of sound and display preferences. Unfortunately, when set to "Fullscreen" the window does not actually fill the screen, leaving big ugly black bars on each side of the screen.

I was dissapointed by the lack of character portraits. Chieri has one portrait, with a wide selection of facial expressions and a handful of clothes. For a game that focuses on two characters, you'd think more budget could be put into those characters (outside of the sex scenes).

- The Goods -
The lewd artwork is awesome! It's spectacularly drawn, dare I say professional. It's totally uncensored, and you get to see Kouto (the dude's) face! A lot of hentai games will "censor" the guys' face, which I find off putting. Faceless men creep me out, and totally kill the mood. Expect creamy, juicy male-on-female consensual action.

Verdict
If you enjoy linear, story heavy visual novels, then this game might be for you. It's a bit pricier than the average novel, but that's okay. This title rocks exellent artwork and lots of words for you to enjoy. However, I'd still keep an eye for when this game goes on sale.

I don't remember this game very well, but if I had to guess the online patch likely removes mosaics for American gamers

seeing no censorship in reviews and one of the first page forum topics is about an uncensor patch leaves some questions about which is true.

One hand, you say? That sounds convenient!
