Honey Trap Version 2.2 is a submission to the visual novel jam, NaNoRenO 2019.  The build available for download is the beta demo of the game. An updated version  of the demo is currently in development. Please see the dev logs for more information.

Feedback would be highly appreciated and can be provided here via the Honey Trap testing form


KIKYO Agency deals with all underground happenings and individuals. Naturally, there are some clients that want dirt on people they want snuffed out. There’s no easier way to slide in between a prey’s defenses more than playing with their carnal desires. Honey Trap Agents are devilish spiders ready to sink their fangs into the next target—but what happens when they pick on something bigger than they can chew?

Agent Kazuto founds out more than he bargained for when he takes on a mission that leads him down a path he might not make it out of.  With his past suddenly resurfacing and his current relationships at stake, there's only so much he can do before his luck runs out.

After checking out this game, I am really glad I did.  I do hope this is continued.  I know some games can take years and personal life comes first, but I'm willing to wait.  I'll continue following to see.

Hi, it there any kind of guide available for this? Does it matter? I don't like getting the bad endings at the start of the game lol

this game unfortunately is incomplete :(

I just finished it. I see I didn't need anything... lol. 

I really liked it tho.. I am guessing it won't be completed? 

it is really good story. i even donate dome money for it but up until now i did not see they updated yet ;(

writer say they well but we never know. LET US HOPE 

Any updates on whether this game would continue?

Hello! Further development on the full game is on hiatus, as is the demo update. When we do begin working on the project again we will definitely let everyone know!

I just played it and answered the survey. I really like the characters and storyline for now, and I hope to see more updates from this game! Good luck on your project!

Hello, thank you very much for filling out the survey! We're really glad to hear that you enjoyed the game, please stay tuned for more updates!

I already completed the survey, but I can't stress this enough: find better background images, especially if you want to put this game on Kickstarter. Those pictures are very low quality and commonly used in cheap mobile games. Not a good look at all

since it was a free game i can understand this. i do agree though.

Hello, thank you for leaving your feedback. 

Due to time restraints and the budget during NaNoRenO, I had to find specific backgrounds for free that matched the setting, but they were unfortunately low quality.  However, the latest build that I'm working on has updated backgrounds that are much higher quality. Please look forward to the dev log that will have detailed descriptions on the updated game build.
