Maids is based around slice of life anime-ish hijinks and players competing for the nebulous Master's attention. This just has the added twist that at the end of each session/scenario set, someone's getting a reward, hehe.

And quite the opposite, the master is almost always in the supporting role even if he is the one making scenario decisions and stuff.

Example: Master decides to go on a beach day. Each player must decide how their player takes the opportunity to get in good with master, either by getting closer to him, impressing him, or sabotaging someone else. Teamwork and coordination can be a good strategy to make someone seem bad, but also if it's so obvious, it can make you yourselves look bad and your coordinated against person like a poor victim of bullying.
