The first brothel visit in Mooncity, I picked a fox girl with three tails. The animation looped after twelve seconds. I counted. Not because I'm some kind of pervert with a stopwatch, but because the rhythm of her breathing didn't match the sound effect at all. A wet, squelching noise played on repeat while her sprite stayed perfectly still, like a statue someone had spilled lube on. It's the kind of jank that makes you laugh out loud, then immediately check if your door is locked.
Welt's life is garbage. Sick mother, one friend, a city run by a tyrant named Lord Devas who probably smells like old cheese. The writing has this blunt, almost Google Translated quality that somehow makes everything funnier. A gang member threatens to break your legs and the dialogue reads "You will be having no more walking privileges." I'm not mocking it. I genuinely prefer this to polished fantasy slop. There's a fishing minigame that exists for no reason. You can pick flowers. The arena combat is turn based and uses these weird, stretched character portraits that look like someone resized them in MS Paint. The monster girls range from "actually kind of hot" to "what am I looking at." One of them is just a woman with antennae and the game treats this like it's exotic.
The soundtrack is a single looping track that sounds like a MIDI file being played through a tin can. It drills into your skull after ten minutes. I muted it and put on a podcast. The sex scenes are static images with text descriptions that sometimes use words I had to look up. Not because they're sophisticated, but because I think the developer invented them. "Her womanly crevice moistened with anticipation." Who talks like that? I love it. I hate it. The furry characters have more animation frames than the human ones, which tells you exactly where the artist's priorities were. There's a cat girl who purrs during dialogue but the sound effect is clearly just someone going "prrrr" into a cheap microphone. The whole thing feels like it was made by three people in a basement who really, really wanted to see their OCs get railed. And honestly? Respect. The turn based combat has this one attack where Welt just kind of flails his sword and the enemy's health bar drops by a random amount. No consistency. Sometimes it's 10 damage, sometimes 47. I think the RNG is broken but I'm not mad about it. Mooncity's brothels have elves, furries, what the game calls "sectarians" which I think are just cultists in robes. You earn money by fighting in the arena, then spend it on women who stare at you with dead eyes. It's the most honest depiction of sex work I've ever seen in a game. Not because it's realistic, but because everyone involved seems vaguely uncomfortable. Dare to play it alone, or invite company? Actually, don't invite anyone. This is a solo mission. Keep your shame private.
