I was loving this game on a first playthrough and I really thought I was doing things well. However, for some reason I found Asterion really hates MC and fears him, this confuses me a lot, since I strongly believe I have good enough reason to have made good enough choices.
Spoiler warning ahead!
I'm currently at a point in the story where I am locked in a ruthless route and... It's nothing like what I was having before it. My MC only ever sent Asterion out when Argos promised not to do harm, but I wasn't that inclined to say I was naive because of it. In fact: it makes sense, to my mind, that I should send Asterion out believing Argos wouldn't touch him, and it wasn't all for nothing since it got us the mirror.
After the previous point, I believe I wasn't given enough chances to explain or fix my actions, only one dialogue choice (The one when I'm confronted with Argos the day after). Besides, I believed it would have been a good enough apology to look for Asterion's wine without ever sending him to the valley again.
Now I find that Asterion fears me and everyone hates me after the concert, which really felt puzzling. Then there was the ruthless master description, which depicted MC as someone obsessed with sending Asterion out for the artifacts (which, mind you, I haven't got any + I never sent Asterion out after what Argos did). This is the one point that really disconnected me from the story.
I'm currently at a point where MC depicts a character who I simply disagree with completely. Maybe my dialogue choices were taken to the extreme? But if that's the case, I feel like I didn't have much agency to explain myself better throughout the story, then.
However I feel right now, and although I feel like the dialogues were too harshly extreme, I still love the story and look forward to reading more!
Heyya. If you read some posts by Minoh (especially the older ones) he gives some examples of logical reactions.
Taking that context, we are a powerful person who can do whatever we want to Asterion. He fears us and is very suspicious, to the point of even doubting any good intentions. For example, instead of helping him, let them take care of himself. Later on we will learn that all masters, even the kinder ones, have been strict. He thinks it improper for a master, even a kind one, to show too much sympathy.
Do not send Asterion out if you want to have good relations with him.
While Minoh takes care to think about the logical consequences of your choices, and I happen to agree that they are coherent, if you dig deeper down to your shadow, this is a very disturbing VN.
I'm a zoomer and don't particularly like this boomer version of gay portrayal. Just banging people because they happen to be gay rather than getting to know them first. Too freaking promiscuous.
And despite it all, we are still in a position of power over Asterion. I get the disgusting taste of white savior complex.
I think the story started out great. We don't get to learn more about the MC and why he remains in the labyrinth instead of going out sometimes. Surely he has a life and needs to let someone know he isn't a missing person case right?
A lot in this VN can be cut out and have no negative impact for the reader. MC and Asterion were discarded to explore new characters, but we explore them way more than MC or even the Minotaur in "Minotaur Hotel". The guests were great, but not the new character you choose or the peacock. They get a longer story than the gryphon or dragon... Sadly I see it as the mark of a bad writer if they're writing things that have no impact on the themes or story. We could easily keep them separate and both would be good stand alone, but these extra characters being heavily invested in ruins 'Minotaur' Hotel in my opinion.
The whole work is incredibly good, from the shaping of each route to the description of the characters, you will be hard-pressed to find a better work than it. While ensuring the plot, it also has remarkable gameplay and replayability experience. I can't wait to contribute some fan art to this work or promote it to others. The only thing I want to know is whether the officials are interested in organizing a discord discussion group or other, so that fans like me can have a place to discuss the plot. In the end all I can sum up is that the whole game is really awesome and definitely worth the trip (English is not my first language, these comments were converted via Google Translate, please forgive me if there are any grammatical errors, I just wanted to Just to let you know how much I love this game)
Just to add a little more, I really like the work you did on P and Storm's storyline, it's just awesome. While providing a set of contrasts for Asterion and MC, it also gives us a very cute couple <3333333. And Asterion, my favorite boy, cute, strong-willed, charming and humorous. I really like the flirting scenes between him and MC, they are really cute and passionate. And Luke and Kota are also very, very, very good characters. I had a lot more to say about the other characters, but writing any more would overshadow the other comments (this is why I want a official discord group so much, I already follow twitter and itch community, but I really need other fan communication platform. Come and share my love for Minotaur Hotel with other players)
I love this game, and I can't wait for chapter 20. I also just finished all the ruthless endings and I'm actually crying. I felg so bad for Asterion, and not gonna lie, I was happy MC died after sending him out to the valley.
Trying to get the so-called lukewarm route where "I" and Asterion do not become a couple but I don't torture him to death and throw everyone out, or any of the other bad endings. I was led to believe that if I do this one thing which I won't say because spoilers, then I get the lukewarm route.
But no matter what I do, everyone ends up saying how cute a couple we are and there's a fade to black scene because I am playing the SFW version.
So just how do I get this alleged to exist but apparently it does not lukewarm route?
guys Im not crazy right? that there was this gif artwork of asterion giving the mc a massage? by massage him just tapping his dick on your back i lost my folder and I can't find it anymore send help
i was absolutely captivated by story, not gonna lie. And i was very pleasantly surprised that it was not just a cliche game with lots of nsfw (i installed a nsfw version), and it had a lot of tough decisions in it! absolutely 10\10 i am very glad that it was my first experience into gay visual novel games. <3
The first time I saw this game I said "it will be a boring and cliche game" but to my surprise (and luck) it was not like that and I was fascinated and delighted with it
This game is great, but the human models are extreme cancer, pls make them better if you can, I'm loving the game a lot, and that problem makes me sad :'(
This game is IMMACULATE! Angu- I mean, uh, Asterion is my FAVORITE! WHY DID YOU MAKE HIM SO ADORABLE AND LOVABLE BUT MAKE HIM SUFFER SO MUCH I CRIED LIKE A BABY WHEN I SAW HIS BACKSTORY!
I can't wait for the next build ESPECIALLY if it includes an Asterion route because he is the only one I want and he needs love.
I do not know if it is just my device, but using the NSFW version on android does not work because the screen is covered by black boxes. Hope this can be fixed soon
This game is amazing! The story is solid and I eagerly await for the next update for the game. Rarely I have found a visual novel where romance is not the centerpiece of it, Minotaur Hotel is about a story of healing, mending, and fostering bonds between guests. There are two guests that we have Kota and Luke with differing personalities, but they did not fall into stereotypes which is something I loved. Each guest has a story that we just started to learn and you cannot help but be intriqued in what is occurring in the background.
I downloaded the nsfw version, you click on the middle of it. In that version it gives you the option to continue with nsfw or allow a sfw patch to be over it. It would be amazing if people take a shot at this game because it is well written. I haven't found many errors, only the grammatical one where commas are outside of the quotation, but that is it.
Just curious, is sfw or nsfw an option or is this version only sfw? Since I haven't seen another version I'm curious. Sorry of this is a stupid question.
Man, this vn is amazing! I play a lot of vn on itch.io (literally whatever interest me) and this is by far one of the best, it been a while since I been so engage with a vn. The story is so intersting, every charater is unique so far, none of them I have been able to property associate with any charater tropes since they are so well develop and I love the subtle ways you convey motion like having them bob up and down to convey walking, having the character move a little to the bottom left to convey siting, (you'll be surprise how little vn try this, at least the ones I played) anyway im just trying to say, keep up the great work! Oh, and thank you so much for adding SFW mode, you have no idea how much I appreciate that.
ayy, not for me, but i'm really happy this exists for the people that need it. Minotaur Hotel is a fantastic vn and letting more people experience it is always great.
I agree with you CureDay11, I prefer the original it seems to me all content adds to the game in a unique way. Even so i'm excited that Minoh workshop created a safe mode for those who need it.

i really need a mod that allows the main character to have 2lore+
I love the game Unfortunately the Android link is broke. Good thing I have a laptop.

The game is good, but it would be much better if it had more languages like Portuguese
Lately whenever I play Minotaur Hotel my phone resets itself.
i want more nsfw！！！
There is a NSFW version. You can find it by looking for all the projects from Mino workshop.
I love this game so much but im STILL WAITING FOR THE SAY GEX Update:3 The Game made me cry 6 times already
Loveee this gameeeeeeeee omgggggggg :3

Incredible. I am absolutely smitten and couldn't stop playing. Everything about this game is delicious. Someone teach me how to write like this.
I love it and I can't wait for the completed product.
I need Asterion inside meHow to enable sfw mode?
It's auto-enabled on this version of the game.
How do I get the non SFW mode??
Here's a link.
(spoilers)
I love this game, and I can't wait for chapter 20. I also just finished all the ruthless endings and I'm actually crying. I felg so bad for Asterion, and not gonna lie, I was happy MC died after sending him out to the valley.
Gah! I love and hate this game.

So just how do I get this alleged to exist but apparently it does not lukewarm route?
Sorry, but the so-called lukewarm route isn't implemented yet. We're focusing on the romantic one first and then we'll get to it.
That explains a lot. Thanks. I'll just do my best to fast forward over those parts and pretend they don't exist.
May I ask why you don't like the romance parts?
Sorry for late reply. I like the romantic parts, but Asterion is "not my type" kind of thing. Great story so I want to see how it ends.
Oh happy day with joyous glee we will read this and merry be!
guys Im not crazy right? that there was this gif artwork of asterion giving the mc a massage? by massage him just tapping his dick on your back i lost my folder and I can't find it anymore send help
check the nsfw in the shitposting section
Is there a community discord for minotaur hotel?
i was absolutely captivated by story, not gonna lie. And i was very pleasantly surprised that it was not just a cliche game with lots of nsfw (i installed a nsfw version), and it had a lot of tough decisions in it! absolutely 10\10 i am very glad that it was my first experience into gay visual novel games. <3
what is the difference between normal and sfw mode?
I just finished the game and looking for more content of it I found this called "sfw mode"
As far as I’ve played it (I’m only playing sfw rn) nudity has been censored and I’m assuming sex scenes will be removed in one way or another.
Aside from the game, I notice this trend using animal headed humanoid as character. Is there a coined name for this trend/ art style?
Não é verdade? Desejo o melhor para Asterian e os outros
This game is great, but the human models are extreme cancer, pls make them better if you can, I'm loving the game a lot, and that problem makes me sad :'(
i just love P sooooooo much
Hi guys do you know how to update on Android without deleting it??
Can't wait for the next build, already missin' our precious little star, asterion! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
i just install.
AAAAAAAAA
This game is IMMACULATE! Angu- I mean, uh, Asterion is my FAVORITE! WHY DID YOU MAKE HIM SO ADORABLE AND LOVABLE BUT MAKE HIM SUFFER SO MUCH I CRIED LIKE A BABY WHEN I SAW HIS BACKSTORY!
I can't wait for the next build ESPECIALLY if it includes an Asterion route because he is the only one I want and he needs love.
I want Asterion route too!!
His backstory is sadly set in stone, as it comes from Greek mythology.
Uh so I'm in a dumb mode rn. It says "Luke can advance his route." but I dunno how. Can anybody explain
Leave Luke out of a day's activities, so he gets some free time. Then there'll be an option in the management menu to hang out with him.
alright, thanks! Great game btw. <3
I do not know if it is just my device, but using the NSFW version on android does not work because the screen is covered by black boxes. Hope this can be fixed soon
Me too <3
The best way to say " feck off" I ever seen. I like the arts just fine.
finally a new update...
This game is amazing! The story is solid and I eagerly await for the next update for the game. Rarely I have found a visual novel where romance is not the centerpiece of it, Minotaur Hotel is about a story of healing, mending, and fostering bonds between guests. There are two guests that we have Kota and Luke with differing personalities, but they did not fall into stereotypes which is something I loved. Each guest has a story that we just started to learn and you cannot help but be intriqued in what is occurring in the background.
I downloaded the nsfw version, you click on the middle of it. In that version it gives you the option to continue with nsfw or allow a sfw patch to be over it. It would be amazing if people take a shot at this game because it is well written. I haven't found many errors, only the grammatical one where commas are outside of the quotation, but that is it.
Thank you, your comment is very kind. Knowing you like the guests is very nice, and I hope you enjoy what we have in store for the next build!
I don't see comments on the other version, so I'll comment here. I don't see why anyone would ever be mean to the bull, he's sweet and hurt
Some people are just dicks.
This is amazing! The art, characters but most especially the plot and the detail put into the story. Can't wait for the full release ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Just curious, is sfw or nsfw an option or is this version only sfw? Since I haven't seen another version I'm curious. Sorry of this is a stupid question.
Here!
Oh, thanks. I'm definitely excited to play and see what the game is like!
Man, this vn is amazing! I play a lot of vn on itch.io (literally whatever interest me) and this is by far one of the best, it been a while since I been so engage with a vn. The story is so intersting, every charater is unique so far, none of them I have been able to property associate with any charater tropes since they are so well develop and I love the subtle ways you convey motion like having them bob up and down to convey walking, having the character move a little to the bottom left to convey siting, (you'll be surprise how little vn try this, at least the ones I played) anyway im just trying to say, keep up the great work! Oh, and thank you so much for adding SFW mode, you have no idea how much I appreciate that.
ayy, not for me, but i'm really happy this exists for the people that need it. Minotaur Hotel is a fantastic vn and letting more people experience it is always great.
Your profile picture is too powerful.
