As the most GEM games, also this one makes no exception and is a quite static
one, without big actions on the screen. You surely know games like "Teenage
Queen" and similar strip poker games and this one stands in best tradition to
them, with all the possible restrictions the ST Low resolution has to offer.
To be precise, I never found strip games, erotic slideshows, porn pictures and
so on in 16 colours ST resolution that entertaining, esp. as we go to "pixeled"
erotica now. The goal of this game is easy, you have to play "Stone, Scissors
and Paper" against 3 different pixeled women, if you win, she takes one of their
clothes off, if you loose, she takes it on again... and so it goes untill she's
completely naked or you have lost your motivation.
Apart from the fact that the idea of that game is such primitive, I still wonder
if there are really people around that sit at home to play such stupid games,
the realisation of the three women is quite downturning, so to say. I doubt that
some lonely Atarian may be interested in stripping down a pixeled girl in such
kinky colours... there is no single breath of "erotic touch" in here, it's just
a joke and that kicking like all the manga and anime shit... but there seem to
be some people who like it anyway...
Strip for me, babe! Or better not?!
Technically the game is done quite ok, it supports any resolution with at least
16 colours, but the ST Low screen is a bit too small, but the game stays
playable.
Unfortunately the info box fucks up in the 16 colours resolution and isn't
readable. The best resolution is 64o * 48o, higher resolutions are supported too
but are useless as the windows with all the "actions" can't be resized.
The game supports BubbleGEM for some speaking bubbles that may thought to be
some kind of entertaining, but are quite useless.
Furthermore it supports ST-Guide for the help and documentation.
The grafix aren't that teasing as the girlies are pixelled in fancy colours and
leave all erotic meant touch far behind, but the pixel style is still ok.
The game doesn't offers any sound or music, so you have to install some player
in the background...
The 3 girls seem to offer several levels as the last, Rosemary, isn't that easy
to strip down, esp. since the game type itself is more like a question of luck
as you really can't "poker" in that style of game in the end and thinking about
your next step is quite useless. So for pixel-erotic-nerds the game may be quite
motivating, the rest should take its hands off from it...
Final words ... Another game in the big flood of GEM games nobody really needs,
as its entertaining bits are quite small, doesn't needs bigger
braincells, doesn't teases eyes and ears really. It obviously
belongs to the 9o% of new released GEM games that can't change
the normal view onto GEM games as too limited and unspectacular
items nobody really needs... sorry.
