The recent Steam censorship debacle actually sort of opened me up to adult games. (lemmy.world)

I've never really played any porn games more hardcore than Baldur's Gate 3 before, but you remember a couple weeks ago when GOG gave away those NSFW games, as a direct response to the whole thing?

Well I claimed the bundle just to boost their numbers (because censorship is bullshit), but recently I needed a low-difficulty gaming distraction, so I checked a few of them out, and... some of them are kind of good?

Like first off you have to be okay with visual novels (usually), but if you're cool with that, some of them actually have some compelling characters, and occasionally even good gameplay in between all the fucking and whatnot.

Leap of Love is amusing, kind of adorable when it comes to the not-sex stuff, and charming. It is also a game where you (a former frog) can marry and simultaneously bed 3 princesses and their stepmother after deposing of the evil king. My brain is still trying to reconcile this.

Huniepop is one of the best match 3 puzzle games I've ever played, with a chill as hell soundtrack. Also a scantily-clad foul-mouthed love fairy wants you to fuck every woman in a 5 mile radius who can fog a mirror.

And Crom help me, when I finished... sigh... Fetish Locator Week 1, I actually cared enough about some of the characters to buy the next one.

The point is, some of these games have more depth and value than I'd been led to believe, and I wouldn't have known that if the censorship thing hadn't started that chain of events. So congrats censorship people, and honestly thanks, I guess? Completely the opposite of your intended effect. Task failed successfully.

My recommendations:

  • Aurelia is an adventure point and click where you move to a cozy fantasy town. Beautiful art and presentation and just good erotica all around with reasonable puzzle and rpg gameplay.
  • Third Crisis is an ultimate gooner game. It really goes out there and if you're into that sort of thing and it's really well made.
  • Kaiju Princess lets you hang out with a girl who's secretly a kaiju monster

Most steam erotica games started out as poor quality visual novels or clone games with titties but the scene is really shaping up to something much more interesting!

If you're open to a platformer, the only explicitly adult game I've tried is FlipWitch. The gimmick is that you can change your sex, with certain obstacles only able to be passed through by a specific sex. You also have clothing that can only be worn by each sex, and certain NPCs won't interact unless you're wearing certain items. It's a solid metroidvania, and while it's not going to blow you away, I still enjoyed my time with it.

Oh yeah, I saw that one earlier and threw it on my wishlist for later. It looks pretty good. I picked up Scarlet Maiden instead for now, which is also a pixel-based naughty game, but looks to be a roguelite and is supposed to have great gameplay too.

I've only ever played one VN and it was wonderful: Katawa Shoujo 💛

When you got attached to the characters in Fetish Locator you should definitely not play Leap of Faith. It's going to crush you emotionally.

[–] Apeman42@lemmy.world 21 points 3 days ago (3 children)

Thanks for the warning. I'd started playing because I needed a distraction from some hard IRL stuff, so that's good to know. It was nice that when I fired up Being a DIK from the same bundle, they straight out ask you at the beginning if you're going through shit right now, and gently suggest the game may be rough for you if you are.

Adult games give emotional support these days. Not all, but many understand and respect the player to a degree not normally found in games. And because all the right wing puritans aren't playing those games, no one is complaining about other hot button topics like gender, equality, etc.

Literally, for the plot. Glad you where abel to expand your horizons and hope you enjoy more games for the plot

[–] SoftestSapphic@lemmy.world 8 points 3 days ago

Hunnie Pop is the best Bejewled type game ever made. <3

Modding is a way to add some adult content to some games. For example, Bethesda's games have a very active modding community.
