Plot and gameplay

A mad scientist kidnaps the player's girlfriend Eva, and wants to transform her into a futuristic geisha. The player travels to Japan to prevent this from happening.

The game uses a point-and-click interface, and includes several minigames including a card game and an arcade sequence.

Critical reception

Joystick praised the game's original design,[1] while Generation 4 felt the game's graphical quality was unexceptional.[2] Tilt described Geisha as a children's game for adults due to its simple gameplay and mature themes.[3] Amiga Power questioned whether it was the worst full-price game the magazine had ever reviewed,[4] while also commenting that the title was as "user-friendly and sexy as a rotten anchovy".[5]

gollark: I have seen a `.dev` domain actually used, by what I believe is a Google product, so...
gollark: I mean, "nothing bad about Google", if you ignore their domination of a whole lot of stuff, the fact that they do seem to try to move stuff over to their own proprietary standards in some cases, and the massive data gathering.
gollark: Eeeh, sure, I guess.
gollark: I mean "respectable", sure, but I just don't really trust Google.
gollark: I'm not entirely sure how to put it, but I just don't really think that Google should go around doing this sort of thing.
