Conquering Bee Nest

• There's currently no in-game method for directly turning girls into bees yourself, so you must rely on letting them get kidnapped by wild bees and then brainwashing those bees.

Succubus Transformations

• To transform a visitor into a succubus, have the succubus mark them and wait for 30+ turns until they masturbate. Compare this to alraune transformations which can be sped up using tainted food and medicine.

Traitor Mechanics

• A traitor's betrayal percentage increases based on guilt, which rises faster with higher bond levels. Guilt is gained through interactions like seeing a character transform into a trainee or full maid. Bonding can be accelerated by having characters in the same room as their bonded person.

Item and Facility Usage

• Place diffusers near high-traffic areas such as the pool or dining hall to prolong visitor interactions. Tasers are effective for confiscating items but also dangerous if used against you. Use mirrors cautiously, as they can reset visitors' minds but sometimes only cause body transformations.

Facility Management

• Front yard is less visited than the rear yard; place unused arlunes there. Infirmary can be set to give specific medicines and heals incapacitated maids faster. Ensure a maid is assigned to direct visitors to the infirmary if needed.
• Upgrade the entrance yard to level five for better management of visitors and maids.
• Position four plant girls (Alraunes) in the front yard to stealth infect everyone who enters.
• Use powerful forces to take on six police, eventually building up to defeat 25-man arrest squads.
• Seeing an alraune transformation start is now quite concerning for visitors + Fixed item names not being shown correctly when idle items are created + Characters following move to goals that can hide should now be aware of unaware visitors entering rooms they are moving to + Fixed cops doing nothing in some cases due to considering characters they can't talk to or help as possible characters to ask questions of + Hopefully fixed bees carrying items (rather than dragging) from yards to the hive and vice versa + Maids should no longer do the 'idle item creation' actions when idle creation is disabled + Alraunes should no longer try to infect characters transforming into beegirls + Allowed hiding evidence documents; doing so places them hidden somewhere in the manor + Fixed being able to teleport items to and from the hive + Fixed a crash when traitors are missing the self determination concern (added a debug line to try and figure out how)

Succubus Strategy

• Set succubi to use Arouse or Corrupt instead of Dreams for better power efficiency.
• Use the ritual room to send a succubus back to Hell at any time.
• Use succubi to distract visitors while they sleep, increasing arousal and extending distraction time.
• Drag bodies with succubi if things start going wrong or heavy losses occur during champion invasions.

Guest Management

• Call in a pick-up unit from the entrance; they will wait there until their timer expires and contribute towards your goals.
• Mass clothing destruction can be performed by standard maids in the laundry room, targeting clothes of guests who have left or been transformed.
• Trap clothing with a maid to get new trainee maids.
• Confiscate tasers from guests as soon as possible and use them for self-defense or against high combat visitors.
• Lower the leaving concern of guests to keep them longer in the manor.
• Depends how long 'a while' is, but probably not. The Champions themselves are unchanged. You either teleport the manor away, catch them trying to break into rooms ten times so you can ask them to leave, or 'deal' with them when they become aware.
• What can I do to stop my chefs,nurse,librarian from flooding the screen with items? Also when selecting an individuals specific food selection it gets changed randomly.

Game Progression

• Your initial goal is to get more maids. Sign contracts with succubi and manually trap guests.
• Drag a maid to attend to a guest; select 'Trap' for the clothing to turn them into a trainee, then lock them in a room until they become a maid.
• Send all the maids into stasis to accumulate mana and train them in turns.
• Once you have enough contribution points, drag Takanashi over a maid then choose 'change form' to upgrade your maids.
• Manor Beta 1 Patch 7 (Preview Patch) Windows 64-bit - Mega + Characters changing the form of another character will now wait for them to lock the door to the ritual room (if they try) + Fixed it being possible to hover trackers on non-focused cards while viewing cards/selecting actions + Fixed a crash that could occur during the domination ritual + Fixed yards not being further upgradeable after performing the domination ritual + Fixed new succubuses not having their follow before use power order set + Traitors now gain guilt when they see characters become succubi and extra guilt if they were involved + Added an alternative to auto-exchange - automatic entering stasis (or bind to contract for succubi) + Succubuses using powers on characters will now use the power while following after them if they are moving + Added an empowerment cost multiplier option + Added a 'highlight aware' option, that shows a new short animation when characters become aware + Adding turning characters into statues
• Manor Beta 1 Patch 15 Downloads are at + Seeing an alraune transformation start is now quite concerning for visitors + Fixed item names not being shown correctly when idle items are created + Characters following move to goals that can hide should now be aware of unaware visitors entering rooms they are moving to + Fixed cops doing nothing in some cases due to considering characters they can't talk to or help as possible characters to ask questions of + Hopefully fixed bees carrying items (rather than dragging) from yards to the hive and vice versa + Maids should no longer do the 'idle item creation' actions when idle creation is disabled + Alraunes should no longer try to infect characters transforming into beegirls + Allowed hiding evidence documents; doing so places them hidden somewhere in the manor + Fixed being able to teleport items to and from the hive + Fixed a crash when traitors are missing the self determination concern (added a debug line to try and figure out how) + Traitor champions can no longer be petrified + Traitors are more expensive to petrify, and lose satisfaction heavily when they are + Visitors following other visitors will now wake characters (except tired sleeping aware characters) + Hostile beegirls should no longer sometimes hide before performing non-stealthy actions (like removing barricades) + Witch maids assigned as nurses or librarians should now do idle projects + Fixed succubi assigned to arouse targets propositioning them when it isn't safe to do so + Fixed succubi getting confused about what they should do in some cases when not hidden and needing to handle a door + Fixed guided plant zombies planting themselves in the first yard they enter, ignoring their guide + Added a move all statues option + Hopefully fixed visitors and cops trying to move planted plant zombies + Characters ordered to get intimate by the player no longer worry about barricading doors + Added a shared maid order that, when on, has maids pick up visitor clothes when the owner isn't present + Changed door relocking tracking to be according to player 'intent', shown via an outline on the doors -> This follows the same maximum rules as doors being actually locked, but you can e.g. intend for a manor locked door to be unlocked and a different door to be manor locked instead -> Shift + left click can be used to toggle the intent on a door, and it also changes when you order locking/unlocking of a door -> Your characters will lock and unlock doors as appropriate (this should behave better now, hopefully avoiding double ups and characters interfering with each other) + Added a cleaning compulsion power, which inflicts visitors with a cleaning compulsion -> Visitors with nothing better to do may obey the compulsion and become dazed, clean or put on maid outfits depending on the strength -> Cleaning under the compulsion increases its strength -> Cleaning when compelled to by a maid duster causes/increases the cleaning compulsion as well -> Maids can take advantage of dazed characters and give/increase a cleaning compulsion on them. This is fairly suspicious if seen -> Cleaning compulsion strength reduces the cost of beginning training, and when training begins obedience will start higher

Facility Usage

• Create a maid injector in the master suite and use it on sleeping guests to quickly get more maids.
• Use the laundry room's 'Mass-Destroy' function to efficiently remove clothes of former visitors or transformed characters.
• Place bee girls on constant patrol in yards and shed to handle invading groups of champions.
• Use True Sight in the room where champions are entering to monitor their movements.
