The Headmaster
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux
Hi there! We are Altos and Herdone and we are making The Headmaster, a dark comedy combining a nonlinear story, stats management and a unique punishment system.
The game has been updated to 0.16.4Public. Check out the changelog on our Patreon page. The current version has approximately 16,000 images, 1000 videos and over 35 hours of gameplay.
About the Game
In the not-too-distant future, on a small island nation, a crisis has arisen. The number of students graduating from school has fallen sharply and university places are going unfilled. Faced with the prospect of mass unemployment and potential economic disaster the government is forced to introduce emergency measures. All students over eighteen who failed or were expelled from school are to be forced back into education at a number of special facilities.
In The Headmaster you play an expert in psychology with some unique ideas about how to tackle the crisis. After a demonstration of your theories at a teachers conference, you are approached by the agent of a mysterious organisation. He invites you to interview for the position of headmaster (principal) at one of the newly founded schools for over eighteen-year-olds. Keen to prove yourself and your theories you gladly accept.
Using your unique disciplinary methods you must turn a whole school of delinquent young women into hard-working and obedient students. Things will not be easy for you. You must win your colleagues to your side, cater to the unusual demands of the school's owners and deal with a troublesome government inspector.
N.B. This game contains explicit sexual content and is for adults only (18+). All characters portrayed in this game are over the age of eighteen. All acts protracted in this game are between fictional consenting adults.
Themes Included:
- Training
- Corruption
- Male Domination

game is stuck on leveling up Debbie to level 5. won't let me end punishment or go back.
The app downloads fine but won't open for me. Keep getting a "The application "TheHeadmaster.app" can't be opened." popup. Anyone know a workaround? The usual "open anyway" notification doesn't show in my system settings and the app itself doesn't have an icon image. Would deeply appreciate any help :)
I m s.exy? Here are my erotic photos here https://surli.cc/qqmisf
I am not able to catch Harriet no matter how much I patrol around the campus
Can you please make a browser version?
Trying to get Rachel to level 9. Meters are 10-17-10. I assume I need to fill them to 6-15-6 in 5 in order to have Mrs. Newman finish the punishment, but I can't get it to work. I've tried every combination of actions to fill the meters to those values, but nothing works. I've also tried filling them to 8-15-6 in case I misunderstood the mission. What am I missing?
Just switch to easy mode under preferences and restart the punishment. It will guide you through the correct actions automatically.
Thanks! Mystery solved!
I'm having trouble with the game downloading, it starts but wont finish due to some file error about halfway through. i know i could say internet issues but unlikely due to also trying with my hotspot. please help as I've downloaded plenty of games here.
这个游戏有中文吗
I want to ask will there be a android version or only Windows and Linux
Tell us again how you couldn't be bothered to read the short game intro before crying that your free stuff isn't easy to use everywhere you want.
You know what thanks for pointing out that the developer has already given a answer to that so sry that I was a idiot and insulted you didn't had a good day and I really didn't noticed that becouse I played the game on pc bevore and did look if they had that written in the description
I probably should not have replied in kind (and in a matching tone). Seeing the same question asked over and over by people who literally have to scroll past the answer to ask the question gets really old, even though I have no stake in the matter. That said, I responded as if you asked the question more than once yourself, and that was unfair.
All that said, I don't think I will edit my post, as you have done. I said it, I'll own it.
Na don't apologize i already know I usually apologize for asking that question becouse I know that is a repeat question that is answered over and over again and it does get annoying especially if it's all really awnserd in the description so it's my wrong
I'm trying to play from the phone, but when I enter the game through Joiplay, the game suddenly closes, and as far as I know, I have everything updated

All the images and videos in this game are pre-rendered, so you should be able to run it on a potato. I know you can open the graphics setting by pressing shift and g, but I've never heard of that screen opening automatically before.
ntr game?
No.
ty, now i can play
Game guide where...?
I hope this game can be run on Android
Let me know if you have any luck
Where did you get the model assets for the female characters characters?
I have no idea where they got it from but I have seen amy in other games
how do you use the detailed walk-through in the replay menu.
There should be a big red button with "Do Not Press" on the top right corner of the Replay Menu, the walkthrough is at the bottom of the list.
when next update ?
Sad, it seems to be a good game but when I try to open it on JoinPlay on my cell phone the game closes by itself.
Make sure you have the latest Joiplay plugins installed.
joi?
Loving the game, i am now stuck on Sally Learns the Ropes. I need to discuss her potential promotion with her but can't seem to find when/where that should be. please help.
Monday mornings when your character leaves his house he discusses it with her. Might need to do all avtive quests you can first though.
Thanks will try it again. I have all quests done as far as i can see though. 🤷🏻♂️
yeah, whatever triggers it, i'm not doing.
There was a bug that cut that conversation. If you download the latest version it will be fixed. You didn't miss much though, that storyline will pick up in a later update.
Thanks Altos/Herdone 👍Can't wait for these updates, the game is awesome!
I can’t see to talk to sally about her promotion. I already fully leveled up Liz. How to I progress? It’s literally my last quest! 😭
yes ,this. also stuck here.
yea I probably just wait for the next update, it may have something to do with that. Idk 🤷♂️
0.16.4.3 do indeed get rid of the bug, that's the end of the quests for now though
is there a Russian translation?
no
Está en español?
I have a problem when opening the missions it gives me an error, that's why I'm making the game based on guides, but I can't find the guide for the director's pet 2, could someone tell me?Or can you help me fix the error I have? Pls
Firstly, loving this game. Plenty of fun to be had. Secondly, does Miss Chang give anyone else some serious Washu Hakubi vibes?
I can’t seem to catch priti misbehaving in class, am I missing something?
never mind, finally got it
it seems like the scripting is a bit off; manually punish, and instead of hand spanking over the desk, use the ruler, and repeat everything else from the auto punishment
Will there be a android version?
est ce que quelqu'un c'est comment atteindre les 3 d'excitation, Amy me titille tout les week-end j'en peut plus
There seems to be a bug where if you ask Jimmy to search for the headmaster and then the keys, he doesn't clear the way for the headmasters body, forcing you to restart. Not sure though since I haven't tested it multiple times.
After you ask him to clear the path. You have to progress further with some other quest (staff points?) before he reports that path is cleared. (He is probably just really lazy and works really slow, when he isn't drinking)
That explains it, thank you!
Brilliant game! I am enjoying it very much. I must say I am not into bdsm kink but it's very well balanced, has a lot of teasing and I truly believe this headmaster is doing the right thing for the girls :-)
I like the free roam approach, it's far better than linear visual novel, so that's a big plus.
I was a little concerned about graphics, it's not the usual near perfect style, but I've grown to like it very much and I would recommend this game to everyone who still hesitates.
Great job! I would like to see it developed to the full version some day.
I must say, the developers are a Genius on regard in combining kink with blue humor/comedy. And the references and pun doesnt fall short. Truly Genius.
I wish there was an open world-roam on school grounds/buildings in full 3D environment. But in the end game is still a visual novel so can't complain. Although sometimes the voice lines can be off.
The only thing I cannot stand, how ever... is the headmaster's hypocrisy. And how things are written on him for it. That is my only critique.
I can't switch the influence from 10 to 11, the game is stuck
Influence is increased with the Staff Quests. Some of the staff quests will require you to advance student quests or to doing certain things on certain days in certain places. Go check out the discord for help.
Don't force Priti to strip.
Does the game feature any lesbian contant?
Yes. One of the characters is bisexual. Another comes out as a lesbian.
Great! Thank you! I am in.
Hello, I really love your game however I am stuck where I can't go to discipline higher than 50 and I did absolutely every other quest possible. It's been ages and still no assistant for miss chang, the other guy never oppened the path and bassicly all my student quest ask me to do the a man's work quest but I don't have it.
i'm sorry i'm the dumb one oh my fucking god I just never talked to samantha wich locked a big part of the game i'm like day 88 lol
I kinda did the same with Sam and calling Priti to the office for the first time. Pretty sure that's how I managed to break my save...
有中文吗
国内有人翻译的中文版，但是不是最新的，另外有bug
能发一份吗

estoy intentando jugarlo desde mi celular
quiero saber cual es la ultima versión jugable en celular
ya que intento iniciar y no carga
I am stuck in teaching miss Potts - part 2, when and where are the twins getting in trouble
Be sure to spy on their room occasionally, otherwise, there's a particular swim lesson scene that's helpful if you have the pool open.
Do you have Spanish language?
Last time I checked there was no Spanish option. I hope we get one in the near future
It's funny that I just found this comment, check my twitter, I'm translating it: Twitter
(I don't always translate it, it's just a hobby for me)
Translation finished
wow that's awesome
hi there, Iam stuck to get influence 11. I have 150 grades and also discipline..hornines 30 but i can´t get influence to 11 have only 10
Not possible. Haven't tried, but just use the same cheat on Influence that you did on the other three.
If actually playing, don't force Priti to strip, and 11 comes to you.
It's possible to soft lock yourself out of progress in Chapter 2 if you force Priti to strip and gave the photos to Mr Wilson (definitely not the best option by the way). We have fixed this in the latest version by reducing the Body search rule requirement to 10. If you download the latest version it should fix this.
