It's another huge chapter with multiple pathways and options.

It's been a long week that's been full of challenges at the Goodhead Academy.
But Thursday evening is a chance to put your work aside, unwind and really have some fun.
Maybe you can go out on a date with Bridgette, or perhaps you prefer to go out exploring on your own.
There are some new places to visit and many new people to meet.
Thursday evening is also an opportunity to see everything else that happens when you go looking.
And if your date with Bridgette doesn't work out then there are always other options to consider.
Chapter Nine statistics :
2372 pages
3621 images
1 bonus scene

There is plenty to do otherwise but you do miss out on some of the fun obviously.
The bonus scene also extends the 'free' scene in the hotel with Alexia

Website and other updates
Most of my time over the past couple of months has been devoted to the updates, improvements and additions to Chapter Nine.
Alongside this has been the continual tweak and adjustments to improve site performance and consistency.
Game saves issue
One issue that some of you may have noticed and that is currently being worked on is the display of duplicate game saves on the earlier chapters.
It's making some accounts appear to have twice as many saves as they actually have.
We are figuring out the cause and implementing a fix as soon as possible.
If you do have any issues please contact me via direct messaging on here.

Another thank you to my Beta testers who have been invaluable in finding any glitches before release.
I made it particularly challenging this time around by pushing Ch9 to beta well before it was complete so that it could be tested in stages.
I very much appreciate the time and effort that goes in to playing through the new material, especially when having to put up with big gaps, incomplete sections and a few frustrating technical problems along the way.
You know who you are.
:)
Have fun with the new chapter everybody!

I managed to play Chapter 9 a few times (a few times with Bridgette option and a few times with the solo option). Not sure if anyone else is having this issue or whether what is mentioned about multiple saved games appearing all of a sudden for previous chapters covers my issue but for my Chapter 9 saved games, they appear both in the Chapter 8 section and the Chapter 9 section. I really liked Chapter 9 as a whole and can see how complicated things are creating this chapter. My review deals with items already posted on Patreon or are on the Chapter 9 achievements screen whenever reaching the end of Chapter 9. I liked how the solo option for Chapter 9 turned out and look forward to continuing this as for the most part, this is completely new content. I like that the Alexia hotel room scene is 100% free although you mention that doing the Alexia bonus scene in Chapter 9 opens some things in the free Alexia hotel scene. Out of the new young girls at the restaurant, my favourite is Hannah (the one with the spider-like necklace and commented about her mom). I'm hoping that the PC can meet up with her again in a more sexual encounter and perhaps also encounter her mother. Since most of the PC's conversation and looking at cleavage seemed to be directed at Emily, I'm sure that if the PC has any sexual encounter with the young ladies introduced at the restaurant, it will likely be with Emily. Hopefully they appear in either the Brass Pole, movie theatre, or Pink Pussy. In terms of Frida and Susie, I'm not a big fan of Frida's look (between the 2 of them, I prefer Susie) but that doesn't mean that I wouldn't mind if the PC has a threesome with them. One of the options in Chapter 9's solo route seems to indicate the possibility of bumping into both of them at the Brass Pole nightclub later in the evening. With Catherine the housekeeping employee, I thought that it would turn into a scene similar to how Maria was introduced in the Tara series (with the PC trying to mess up the shower to get her to fix it). Since she finishes work in what would be late Thursday evening or early Friday morning when the PC returns back to his hotelroom, there seems or could be a possibility of something happening with her. Sebastian getting lucky wasn't something that I needed/wanted to see. 🤣 In terms of seeing someone in the building window at the end of the restaurant scene that one of your patrons mentioned, on my computer, I can't tell who it is since my computer sometimes has problems with animations in the game and I sometimes only see the last image when the screen appears and need to press the "refresh" button for me to see the animated sequence. That being said, for me, it is difficult to see who it is since I only caught pale/white skin tone. Alexia mentions her sister in Chapter 9 and seems to indicate that her sister is kinkier than she is (and I would rank Alexia in terms of "kinkiness" about the same level as Annie in the game) and I'm hoping that it is a totally new character and perhaps an identical twin sister with some minor difference (like glasses or hair colour) since even though Alicia and Laura are twins, they aren't identical twins and it would be interesting if Alexia were to share the PC with someone... if not Bridgette as she suggested than maybe her sister in a future chapter. 😉 With the Bridgette option, even though there are new images and I liked the conversation when the PC and Bridgette exit the car explaining what Bridgette wants in this date,, everything plays more or less like the old DwB #1. I would have liked if there had been a bonus scene with the Bridgette option as well. With the Bridgette option, I'm hoping that alcohol doesn't play as big of a factor in the upcoming chapters as it did in the older DwB series I don't want to spoil it for anyone who has never played the older DwB series (but I believe most of your patrons have probably played it) but without getting into specifics, too much alcohol caused Bridgette to be more "carefree" but also caused two particular negative game ending option to happen. Perhaps if any or some of the Bridgette bonus scenes were played in previous chapters, alcohol won't be that big of a determining factor as to what Bridgette will say or do on this date. As it is now, there are so many possibilities going forward into Chapter 10... the girls introduced at the restaurant, the Academy students, Susie & Frida, Caitlin, Alexia, Alexia's sister, the person in the window, Hannah's mom, the existing Academy characters (Jodie, Bridgette, Didi, Olivia Goodhead, Principal Valentine, etc.), Catherine, etc. 😉I can't wait until Chapter 10 becomes available and how things turn out for the PC on Thursday evening.
