Preface
Do you like gacha games
Have you ever imagined having a girlfriend
And this girl, would even enjoy playing gacha games with you
When you get a bad pull, she’d groan with you: “Ahhhh, noooo, darn it”
In “Cute, Broke, and Dungeon Bound”
The main character Memerith is a woman obsessed with gacha games
She’s so crazy about gacha that she’s in massive debt
She has to go to the labyrinth to find treasure to pay it off
What do you think of a girlfriend who’s so obsessed with gacha games
(Is a girlfriend in massive debt from gacha games better than no girlfriend at all)
Game Background
Memerith is in debt because of her gacha obsession
Every time she gets a bad pull, she doesn’t give up and keeps trying
But debts have to be paid, and if you don’t work, you might have to pay with your body
Memerith comes up with a great idea for herself
She saw a TV commercial
The adventurers in the commercial all claimed to have found treasures in the labyrinth
Stirred up by the commercial
Memerith decides to drag her big-chested friend, the Holy Maiden Tina, to the labyrinth with her
(Hey, is this not a scam, you should call the anti-scam hotline)
Memerith and Tina are full of joy
Thinking that ten thousand treasure chests will bring them ten thousand gold, they’ll clear the labyrinth and get rich
Little do they know it’s just ten thousand orcs and ten thousand G, Memerith is so lewd
Game Introduction
“Cute, Broke, and Dungeon Bound” is an RPG game
The main characters are Memerith and the Holy Maiden Tina
The game starts with Memerith, who loves gacha games, watching a TV commercial
She decides to go on a labyrinth adventure with Tina to see if she can turn her life around
The main gameplay takes place in the labyrinth, fighting monsters
And in the city, earning money through strange lewd methods
(Life is tough, because you have to pay a toll to enter the labyrinth, so you have to earn money first)
At the beginning of the game, there are experience slimes to help you level up
The bosses in the game are not difficult, so you don’t have to worry about not being able to defeat them
But you do need to eat some potions during combat, so don’t forget to buy some at the item shop first
If you lose a battle, Memerith and Tina will be subjected to lewd acts by the boss
Like being molested by a goblin or an orc
You can also intentionally lose a battle
“Cute, Broke, and Dungeon Bound” has three endings in total
When you finish the game, it will tell you how to get the other endings, and the Recollection Room will be unlocked
And after you beat the game, there are bonus stories you can play, the plot is very rich
Character Introduction
Memerith
Memerith is an otaku who loves gacha games
She loves to pull on her phone
As a result, she’s in massive debt and can’t even pay her phone bill
So she can’t use her phone anymore
She has no choice but to go on a labyrinth journey to make a fortune
Holy Maiden Tina
The Holy Maiden Tina is Memerith’s good friend
Her bad friend Memerith loves gacha games so much she has to go to the labyrinth to make money
So Tina has no choice but to go with her
As for why Tina is a Holy Maiden
Big boobs are justice
Tina was appointed as a Holy Maiden because of her big breasts
Maybe she’s a Holy Maiden who saves the world with her boobs
Gameplay Introduction
The gameplay of “Cute, Broke, and Dungeon Bound” is not difficult
It’s similar to a regular RPG game
The map interface is very clear
The quest locations will be directly marked with exclamation points on the map
So you know exactly where to go next
The main plot of the game is to explore the labyrinth and find treasure
You will encounter various monsters in the labyrinth, and there will be a boss on each floor
When you fight a boss with a heart symbol above its head
If you happen to lose the battle, Memerith and the girls will be treated to a lewd scene by the boss
After you clear the labyrinth on Feast Island, you will be teleported to Kojikoroo Island
On Kojikoroo Island, you will earn money doing lewd jobs to pay the toll
And then you can continue your labyrinth adventure
Combat Mode
Memerith and Tina can level up to 27 at the beginning
There are many skills you can use, and they can basically defeat most of the monsters
But when you encounter a boss, you still need to eat some potions to defeat it
When their HP is too low, they will become naked
If a boss has a heart symbol above its head
It means that if you lose the battle, a lewd scene will be triggered, forcing a lewd act
Skills, Equipment, and Items
Memerith is an otaku
Her powerful skills are all related to her phone, she’s really a phone-addicted otaku
The bosses in this game are not hard to defeat, you just need to buy some potions from the item shop to beat them
In addition to regular equipment you can buy at the weapon shop
You can also buy special costumes at the cosplay shop, like a bunny girl outfit or a nun’s habit
These special costumes can not only increase your defense stats
You can also wear them to work and earn money, which is a great value
Character Interface
Press ESC to see the interface menu
In Memerith and Tina’s H status, you can see their current lewdness index
You can also see the number of times they’ve had sex
(Memerith probably didn’t expect that her lewdness would increase faster than her wealth)
Map Introduction
There are two main maps: Feast Island and Kojikoroo Island
You can see other areas on the islands
Finding quest locations is very intuitive
The most important Recollection Room is in the upper right corner of Feast Village
In the early stages of the game, you can only enter the labyrinth in the middle of Feast Island
If you happen to lose a battle, you will be subjected to a lewd act and then teleported back to their room
When you go back to the labyrinth, you can use a magic stone to teleport directly to a specific floor, so you don’t have to run through it again
Kojikoroo Island has Kojikoroo City, the Slums, Cherun Village, and the Labyrinth Entrance
In Kojikoroo City, there are cosplay shops, various entertainment venues, and item shops
You can buy adult toy sets at the cosplay shop
After you buy it, you can use a feather to fly home and have Memerith try it out
Paired with an aphrodisiac, it can make Memerith go into heat
In addition, there is a scene that can be triggered in the slums at night
Since there are more bad guys at night, some bad things can happen
(Resting at the inn in the slums will turn it into nighttime)
Plot Introduction: Normal Ending
“Cute, Broke, and Dungeon Bound” has two main maps and three labyrinths
The first main map is Feast Island, where you can clear the first labyrinth
The second main map is Kojikoroo Island, where you have to earn a toll fee to clear the remaining labyrinths
Feast Island Plot
At the beginning of the game, you will be given an experience slime
After Memerith defeats it, she will gain a lot of experience and can level up to 27 immediately
Before entering the labyrinth on Feast Island, you need to get permission from the Adventurers’ Guild
You need to go to the eastern forest to catch a thief to prove your strength and get the permission
Then you can clear the first labyrinth
But it turns out that after you go through the first labyrinth, the treasure chest is empty
(Memerith is devastated, where’s the treasure)
After using a Feast Feather to return to the Adventurers’ Guild
The guild will ask Memerith to go to Kojikoroo Island to check it out
Kojikoroo Island Plot
The map of Kojikoroo Island is a bit bigger than Feast Island
The guild is in the slums (they’re so poor)
On Kojikoroo Island, you have to earn money to go to the labyrinth
So Memerith and Tina have no choice but to find a way to make money
(I can’t believe they have to earn money just to get in)
(Making money is so hard)
There are many ways to make money
Completing a guild quest can get you 20000 gems
In addition to taking guild quests, you can also work at various shops
Like the casino, tavern, and brothel, these three are lewd jobs
(If you want to unlock the true ending, don’t do any lewd acts, please work at the item shop)
Lewd jobs require a lewdness index threshold
If your lewdness index is not high enough, there is a massage parlor on the right side of the slums
(The one with a teapot on the sign is the massage parlor, since it’s a “tea house”)
This is a shady place, the owner will perform lewd acts, which can increase your lewdness index
To get into the labyrinth, Memerith is willing to do anything
What’s selling used panties
Memerith can also sell her used portable toilet
She’s willing to work at the casino in a bunny girl outfit
She can wear a wedding dress for a multi-person play
Or have sex in a nun’s habit
(Isn’t this a bit of a blasphemy against God)
These special clothes can all be bought at the cosplay shop
Kojikoroo Island is really dangerous
If you go to the restroom together at night, you’ll encounter a pervert and get tied up
If you go into the mysterious room in the upper left corner of the city
You’ll be forced to have sex to leave, or you’ll grow old and die in the room
But Memerith and Tina are both girls, how can they have sex
Don’t worry, the mysterious room has already figured out a way for Memerith to have sex
There’s a medicine in the closet that makes you grow a penis
Memerith will grow a penis after taking the medicine
(Did Memerith just become Red-chan)
After the two have sex, they can leave the room
After having fun all over Kojikoroo Island, they finally save up enough money to pay the toll and go to the labyrinth
In the labyrinth, it’s the familiar monster-fighting plot
After defeating three bosses, you will reach the deepest part of the labyrinth
But when you open the treasure chest, it’s a mimic
After defeating the mimic, you can continue to move forward
But there’s no treasure, only a path to the final labyrinth
(Can you really make money from the labyrinth, Memerith, I told you to call the anti-scam hotline)
In the final labyrinth, Memerith and Tina will encounter adventurers
You have to defeat them to ensure the final treasure chest is yours
After fighting this group of adventurers, you have to fight the Fish-Heads and the Horse-Men
And finally, the final boss, the Evil Goddess of Fortune
After defeating the Goddess of Fortune, Memerith will become a gacha live streamer, and she can make money through her streams
Memerith can finally live her life, so stop spending all your money on gacha games
After you complete the ending, you can also redeem bonus stories at the guild’s lottery
The bonus story is about Memerith and Tina going to a haunted mansion
But in this haunted mansion, their skirts keep getting secretly lifted
And their butts get secretly photographed by a ghost, where did this pervert come from
Game Guide
In the game’s normal ending, naughty scenes mainly happen after a defeat or from various lewd jobs on Kojikoroo Island.
Every village has a well that can restore your stamina, but it will also make you need to pee.
You can have Memerith drink a lot of water.
If you’re mischievous and deliberately don’t let them go to the restroom, you can unlock a peeing scene.
If you play seriously, it’s not easy to lose battles, which means they won’t become very lewd.
Without a high enough lewdness index, you can’t do the high-paying lewd jobs.
In that case, you can go to the massage parlor in the slums and grind Memerith’s and Tina’s lewdness index to 50.
Then, go to the cosplay shop and buy all the clothes at once.
This will unlock various high-paying jobs, letting you earn money quickly and save up for the toll.
The potions in the game are very cheap.
Before you pay the toll, you can stock up on them at the item shop.
By chugging potions, you can basically get through the game quickly and defeat every boss.
(But if you beat the bosses, you won’t get to see the defeated-sex scenes, which is a dilemma.)
(You can also lose a battle by using a suicide item.)
If you have a special preference for domination, you can try for the bad ending.
Go find the old man in the house in the upper-left corner of the slums.
Then rest at the inn in the slums until nightfall.
This will open the path to the bad ending.
In the bad ending, the story has Memerith and Tina helping the old man find his granddaughter.
The old man’s granddaughter has been kidnapped and is about to be turned into a sex slave.
Memerith and Tina go to save her, but things go wrong, and they also get turned into sex slaves.
(Player’s inner monologue: So good, so good, my little sex slaves.)
Even the game’s title screen will change.
Because you unlocked the bad ending, Memerith will appear in a dogeza pose.
If you’re a player who doesn’t want to seriously experience the story and just wants to rush to the ending to unlock the Recollection Room.
You can grind like you’re studying for a test.
Repeatedly go to the massage parlor to increase your lewdness index.
Then keep doing the same lewd jobs.
Once you’ve saved up the money for the toll and bought a bunch of potions, you can start your boss-fighting routine.
Have Tina lower the enemy’s defense, Memerith uses her paralyzing attack, Tina uses a single-target attack, Memerith uses her paralyzing attack, and Tina heals.
Rush to the Recollection Room after, your efforts are worth it.
If you want to see the true ending, you can buy the lewdness-resetting item “Clear Worldview” at the guild.
After you use it, your lewdness stats will be reset to zero.
Then you have to fight the final boss, the Evil Goddess of Fortune, again.
When you get to the labyrinth, you can go directly to the final boss’s floor without having to go through the middle part again.
After you win, you can watch the true ending.
Memerith and Tina happily walk home hand-in-hand and live happily ever after.
Game Review
Overall, the naughty scenes in the normal ending mostly happen after a defeat, from various lewd jobs, or in dangerous places like the restroom at night
These scenes have little connection to each other
For players who want a strong plot, the normal ending’s story is a bit weak
However, the naughty scenes in the bad ending are very plot-driven
Not only do they have a coherent story, but you can also switch perspectives and have the two characters act separately, which is a big plus
The game starts by giving players experience to level up and includes a defeated-sex mechanic
The only monsters you absolutely have to fight are the bosses on each floor
So grinding doesn’t feel like a chore, and quest locations are easy to find
The balance between fighting, questing, and the practical scenes is well-done
One downside is that the game lacks voice acting
It would be more arousing with cute girls’ voices
Overall, if you’re a player who enjoys RPGs and also wants a practical experience, “Cute, Broke, and Dungeon Bound” is highly recommended
