RearRoutine
About RearRoutine
RearRoutine is a Ren'Py adult visual novel by Red Lips Ruby, built around a female protagonist named Ruby who is stuck in a repetitive life of work and frustration. The story follows her attempts to escape a dead-end job and an overbearing boss, with choices that can bring new opportunities, pleasures, or deeper entanglement. It blends narrative progression with clicker-style gameplay, where players earn money, improve Ruby’s lifestyle, and unlock new scenarios. The art style is 2D CG and animated, and the game explores themes of corruption, a female protagonist, and male domination.
The current build is v0.4, released on May 9, 2025, and development is ongoing rather than finished. This version runs on Windows, Linux, and Mac in English, with no censorship. The latest update added interaction with Steve, a hotel front desk worker, along with three new scenes involving him and a change to the balance of corruption. Earlier updates introduced clicker gameplay, new locations, NPCs, animations, and items such as a tracksuit and a sex toy, expanding Ruby’s choices beyond work and routine.
Developer's description
Ruby’s life feels like an endless loop—wake up, work, repeat. Tired of her dead-end job and frustrated with her overbearing boss, she dreams of something more. But escaping the routine isn’t easy, and every choice she makes could lead to new opportunities, unexpected pleasures, or even deeper entanglement. RearRoutine combines immersive storytelling with clicker-style gameplay, allowing you to earn money, upgrade Ruby’s lifestyle, and unlock new scenarios. Will you break free from the monotony or dive deeper into temptation? The choice is yours.
