Chad Gibson. Even the name sounds like a frat paddle to the face. This game, COED Conquest, hands you this dude, a business major, and drops him into some experimental program where he has to build a startup. The real grind isn't the spreadsheets though, it's the campus full of women whose sole existence seems to be testing his, and by extension your, ability to not just drool on the keyboard. The whole thing runs on a visual novel engine, so it's a lot of clicking through text and hitting the occasional choice that supposedly steers your horny little empire.

The art is CG hentai, and there's this one scene early on with a tutor, a redhead with glasses, that lives in my head rent free. The way the light catches the spit string when she pulls back. Chef's kiss. Absolute cinema. But then the very next dialogue box will have some of the most cardboard cutout, "I am here to learn about business logistics" bullshit you've ever read. The localization feels like it was run through a translator that learned English exclusively from tax forms and then someone tried to sex it up with a thesaurus. Sometimes it wraps back around to being hilarious, like when a character describes a blowjob as a "mutually beneficial oral merger." Fucking gold. I want that on a plaque.

Gameplay wise, you're juggling stats, money, and which girl to pursue. Mess up the business side and you'll be too broke to take anyone out. It's a weirdly stressful loop for a porn game. I found myself actually doing the math on profit margins for a campus hot dog stand while ignoring a very obvious come on from a goth chick in my econ class because I was 50 bucks short of an upgrade. That's the twist, right? The game makes you the cockblock. You want to see the lewd CG set? Better optimize your supply chain first, dumbass. And for some reason, the inventory screen has a glitch where items will just duplicate if you sort them alphabetically. Free money, I guess, but it breaks the whole "struggling student" vibe when you're accidentally a hot dog magnate with infinite inventory. Still, that tutor scene.
