Palacius, right. That’s the whole deal. This one athlete dude from some ancient greece olympics fantasy but make it yaoi. I went in thinking there’d be more, like maybe a training mini game or a javelin throw that leads to something but nope, it’s just you and him in a room with dialog trees. Which is fine, I guess, but the tease is all verbal. You’re basically sweet talking a statue with a pulse. The unpolished look is the whole point, devs like Arakawa or early Zael stuff where the sketchy lines make it hotter, and here his cock is just... absurd. Drawn with this weirdly confident outline that doesn’t match the rest of his body, like someone spent four hours on that one asset and then remembered they had to draw a face too.

The jewelry borrowing thing is a funny hook. You click through enough ‘oh you’re so strong Palacius’ and he lets you touch his laurel wreath or whatever, but really you’re just grinding affection to see him undress. And when he does, it’s a full reveal, no coy angles. Big, uncut, just hanging there while he talks about his discus record. I was clicking ahead so fast I missed a line about his childhood and had to start over. Wish there was a way to skip the formalities but you can’t, you have to be his emotional support twink before he’ll even unstrap that leather chest piece. The touch mechanics are bare, you get a cursor that’s supposed to be your hand but the collision is off so you’re basically petting his knee when you aimed for the good stuff and he still moans anyway. Went off on a whole thought about how this reminds me of that modded Sims 4 save file I corrupted back in ‘21, the one where I tried to make the entire gym bro squad from that one visual novel, and this has the same jank energy but with less clipping. The Greek backdrop is just a white pillar and a linen d*** that moves like it’s underwater. No crowd sounds, just his breathing. Which loops. Gets real weird after the third compliment.
