The card game in the Beacon cafeteria. That's where it starts. I kept clicking through dialogue thinking "okay, another RWBY parody where someone learned Ren'Py last weekend" and then Ruby's sitting there with Cardin fucking Winchester of all people and the whole thing feels wrong in exactly the right way. You know that specific flavor of "wrong" I mean. The one that makes you keep reading.

The AI art is... look, it's AI art. Sometimes Ruby's face looks like Ruby. Sometimes she looks like she's melting slightly at the edges. Cardin's jaw could cut glass in one render and looks like a thumb in the next. But here's the thing, I stopped noticing after the first sex scene because the writing actually commits. It's based on some old fanfic called "A Rose in Pain" and you can tell the creator gave a shit about the dynamic. Ruby's nervous but not in that annoying anime virgin way. Cardin's an asshole but there's something underneath. The romance beats hit different when you've watched the show and know these two should hate each other. Should. But don't.

The moaning sounds come from MagicalMysticVA and I spent way too long trying to figure out if I recognized the voice before realizing that's not the point. The point is Ruby Rose getting railed by the guy who bullied her friends and somehow it works. The sex scenes are explicit. Like, fully explicit. No fade to black bullshit. The dialogue during those scenes is better than it has any right to be for a spare time project. There's this one moment where Cardin says something that made me actually pause and stare at my ceiling for a second. Not because it was deep. Because it was hot in a way I wasn't prepared for from a RWBY porn game.

I wish there was more Jaune content but that's just me being greedy. The soundtrack is Pixabay stuff, nothing memorable, but you won't care. You're not here for the music.

Lussuria Academy is basically furry Hogwarts but everyone wants to fuck and nobody pretends otherwise. The whole setup is you, some random human dude, getting a letter to attend this magic school full of anthro girls. Principal Lazuli runs the show and her whole deal is seeing if humans and anthros can coexist, which is a very polite way of saying she wants to see what happens when you stick one guy in a building with a bunch of horny catgirls and bunny students.

The art is deliberately rough around the edges, like someone drew it on a tablet while slightly drunk and honestly that adds something. Too many of these games look like they were assembled in a sterile laboratory. This one has personality, even if that personality sometimes forgets how anatomy works. The teacher character, Miss something or other, has these scenes where her proportions shift between panels and I'm not even mad about it. It feels like a doujin you'd find at a convention, not some polished corporate product. The magic academy setting is just an excuse for outfits that barely qualify as uniforms and classroom scenarios that would get a real school shut down immediately.

Wish there was more actual magic stuff though. You get these little hints about spells and potions but then it's right back to another student wanting private tutoring sessions. The visual novel format means lots of clicking through dialogue, some of which is genuinely funny in that broken translation way where you can't tell if it's intentional or not. One bunny girl keeps talking about her "research" and I still don't know what she's researching. The fantasy elements are there, just buried under all the sex. Not complaining exactly, but you see the potential for something weirder and it never quite goes there. Still, for what it is, a messy horny furry academy sim, it delivers exactly what the tags promise without pretending to be deep.

2B’s ass is right there, on my screen, and she’s lecturing me about social power dynamics. Not even joking. Something about law 4, always say less than necessary, while her tits defy every law of physics I remember from school. The contrast is making my brain short circuit in the best way.

This thing calls itself educational. I mean, sure. Robert Greene’s 48 Laws of Power gets quoted between scenes where you can, uh, interact with 2B. The dialogue options are genuinely funny, not just “haha porn game funny” but actually clever. You pick responses that boost some invisible social skill meter while she strips down. There’s a moment where she explains mirroring body language and I’m nodding along, completely forgetting I’m also clicking through to the next lewd scene. The art is deliberately rough, sketchy lines, colors that bleed outside the edges like someone drew this on a napkin in a hurry. It works though. Feels intentional, like a zine you’d find at a convention that’s too cool for the main floor.

The humor lands somewhere between shitpost and genuine parody. Not every joke hits. The pacing gets weird when you’re reading actual self help advice and then suddenly there’s a close up of 2B’s spread legs. My dick and my brain can’t agree on what we’re doing here. But maybe that’s the point? The game never explains itself, never apologizes. You just keep clicking, learning about power law 15, crush your enemy totally, while 2B moans. I wish the interactive bits had more variety. Clicking the same spots gets repetitive fast. The dialogue trees are where the real meat is, pun absolutely intended.

Forgot to mention the NieR parody angle entirely until now. It’s barely a parody, more like someone borrowed the character design and said “what if she taught you manipulation tactics while getting railed?” The whole thing feels like a fever dream sent through a group chat at 4am. No voice acting, just text and those rough drawings. The music loops are surprisingly chill though, like elevator music for a very specific kind of hell. One track sounds almost like the original NieR soundtrack if you squint your ears. Don’t expect a full game. It’s a visual novel with tits and questionable life advice. That’s it. That’s the whole thing. My social skills haven’t improved but I do keep thinking about law 6, court attention at all costs, and isn’t that what we’re all doing here anyway?

Thiago really thinks with his dick, and this whole show is proof. The “plot” is simple in that trashy way I actually like: he signs up for this weird underground TV game where you win by beating girls in little challenges, and whoever wins gets to punish the loser. Not like “go sit in the corner” punishment, more like “get on your knees, you lost, now open your mouth.” The show acts like a cheap game night, but it feels more like a runway where every outfit is just an excuse to take something off. From the first match it’s clear the girls are not there to play fair. They flirt, cheat, flash a little skin, lean too close, push his buttons, drag him around with soft hands and cruel smiles. You win, you get to humiliate them. You lose, they treat you like a toy. And the game really enjoys letting you lose. As a lingerie designer I was lowkey staring more at the underwear than the dialogue. The girls wear exactly the kind of “TV show slutty but pretending to be casual” stuff I sketch in my notebook: panties that are one size too small, bras that look like they were bought for the camera, not for comfort. There’s that half-buttoned shirt that you know is going to “accidentally” pop open, thigh-high socks that don’t even try to be innocent, and one girl in an outfit that honestly looks like a rejected idol costume that someone made hornier on purpose. I’m stealing some strap ideas from this game, not even joking.

The funny part is the show pretends to be light and fun, with jokes and meme faces and those stupid reaction zooms like a bad anime, but then it turns around and asks you if you want to make her kiss your feet or ride your face as “punishment.” One moment Thiago is bantering like a goofball, next moment he has his tongue exactly where the viewers want it. There’s a scene where you barely win a game and she smiles sweetly, then tells you to choose how to degrade her, and the options all feel like someone went through horny Twitter and picked the top comments. Very “haha lol” on the outside, very “I’m throbbing in my underwear” inside. Some of the humor actually made me snort, then right after that same character is spitting on him and calling him pathetic. The writing jumps from silly to filthy fast, like changing outfits backstage. It’s messy in places, the pacing stumbles, one mini game felt like a shitpost more than an actual challenge and one of the “rewards” scenes ends right when it was getting interesting and I wanted to scream at my screen. I also still hate that one UI button that sits one pixel too high, I kept tapping the wrong thing on my tablet and now I’m irrationally mad at it forever. But the whole fake-TV-show energy, with the sexy “contestants” acting like they’re here for the prize money while obviously just wanting to ruin this guy, has a weird charm. It feels like watching an unlicensed late night show that someone recorded over a real program, just horny little games, smug girls, and a main guy who either becomes the king of the studio or its plaything. Honestly the punishment scenes look like lingerie ads from a cursed universe, which for me is kind of perfect.

Right, so the setup is classic "won a trip" bait, and you just know the corporation running it is skeevy before the first dialogue box even finishes. You pick between two protagonists, which is a nice touch, lets you see the corruption from different angles. The mom character, Ashley, she's got that milf-next-door thing going on, big tits practically spilling out of her vacation dress, and the game wastes zero time getting handsy. There's a voyeurism angle early on where you're peeping through a door crack, watching her unpack, and the 3DCG models, while not winning any awards, do the job when the clothes start coming off. The animations are a bit stiff though, like a robot trying to do a striptease.

The corruption is where it gets interesting, or it should be. One minute you're a normal son, next you're "accidentally" groping her in the resort pool, and her resistance just sort of melts. The handjob scene in the sauna is actually hot, the steam effects hiding just enough to make you lean in, but then the dialogue goes full porno script and it pulls you right out. I found myself skipping through some of the text, which is a sin for a visual novel. The multiple protagonist thing means you get to see the other guy's path, and his involves more direct vaginal sex and oral, but his storyline feels like a speedrun of every hentai trope. There's a scene with a resort masseuse that's pure "step-fantasy" cringe, and I couldn't tell if it was self-aware or just lazy writing.

What sticks with me is this one moment in the hotel room, you're watching her sleep, and the game gives you a prompt. Just a simple one. The cursor blinks. No dramatic music, no big tell. That quiet, creepy tension is more effective than all the loud moaning later. The sinister corporation plot is there, I guess, something about experiments, but it's mostly an excuse for the incest train to leave the station. The big ass shots are plentiful if that's your thing, and the game knows exactly what it's selling. Dare to play it alone, or invite company? Just make sure that company is as broken as this vacation is.

The blood spatter effect is genuinely terrible. Like someone just dragged a red smear tool across the screen in MS Paint and called it a day. I spent way too long staring at it, wondering if the dev even owns a tablet. The rest of the art though, the character designs, they have this rough, almost uncomfortable quality that fits the gothic demon stuff perfectly. It’s not polished, it’s jagged, and it makes the nudes feel more raw than sexy. Which is the point, I think.

The sound design is just a low hum and some wet noises. No voice acting, which is a crime for a visual novel about supernatural domination. You’re telling me a demon with superpowers who’s about to tear your soul out wouldn’t have something terrifying to whisper? Missed opportunity. But the silence, the empty air between dialogue choices, it builds a weird pressure. I clicked through a scene where a character’s bisexual awakening gets violently interrupted by a survival horror moment, and the lack of music made my own apartment feel too quiet. I had to open a window.

The pacing is like a party where someone spikes the punch but you don’t know who. One minute you’re in a slow, erotic visual novel conversation, the next you’re making a choice that gets someone’s throat ripped out. The domination themes aren’t just kink, they’re the core mechanic. You crave, you submit, or you die. I got a bad ending because I thought picking the submissive dialogue would unlock a scene, but no, the demon just laughed and the screen went black. The heterosexual and bisexual paths seem to blur together in the gothic setting, which is interesting. It’s all about power, not labels. The nsfw content is explicit but never feels like a reward. It’s a trap. I’m still not sure if the clunky UI is a bug or a feature to make you feel helpless. Probably a bug. I don’t care. I need to see the other endings now.

The mouse click feels hollow. Another dialogue box about existential dread, another choice that probably changes some hidden meter I won't see for two hours. My boss is droning about quarterly reports in the next cubicle over, and I'm here, guiding this mopey college grad Matthew through a sci-fi crisis. The game's textures are weirdly smooth, like touching a polished plastic apple. Not bad, just... off.

There's this one scene early on where you, as some kind of guiding entity, first make contact with him. The screen gets this grainy filter and the vibration feedback on my laptop's trackpad actually synced up, a low buzz that crawled up my fingers. I almost slammed the screen shut. For a Renpy title that looks like it was rendered on a toaster from 2014, that moment landed. The sex scenes have that same uncanny valley problem. Bodies clip through the bedsheets. A hand phases through a thigh during what's supposed to be a heavy petting moment. But the sound design, fuck. The wet noises are mixed way too high, and the voice acting, when it's there, is just breathy enough to make you forget the janky 3d models for a second. You're supposed to be saving humanity or whatever, but I kept picking the "path of pleasure" options just to see how far the physics engine would break. It broke a lot.

The dialogue wheel is a liar. It'll give you three options that all sound like different flavors of the same thing, but then Matthew gets all huffy about free will and morality. Buddy, I just wanted to see some tits, not debate determinism. The ethical dilemmas feel stapled on, like the writer read a philosophy 101 textbook and then immediately wrote a blowjob scene. I wish the game would just commit to being trashy instead of pretending it's deep. The pressure the description mentions? It's just me, trying to finish a scene before my screen faces the aisle.

Fucking a robot in deep space wasn't on my to do list this week but here we are. R.U.A. hits different when you're supposed to be fixing some ship called the Isra II and instead you're stranded on a goddamn asteroid with nothing but a utility bot for company. The game looks rough, like someone made it in a weekend fueled by energy drinks and questionable life choices, and honestly that's part of the appeal. It's not trying to be slick. The jank is the point.

The robot, R.U.A., starts off all clinical and helpful, running diagnostics and keeping the life support from crapping out. But the isolation mechanics creep in. You're stuck in this tiny metal coffin and the only voice is hers. The writing gets under your skin. One minute you're checking oxygen levels, the next you're noticing how she tilts her head when you talk, how her vocal patterns shift when you get... closer. There's this scene where you're repairing her chassis and your hand lingers, and she asks if your elevated heart rate is a malfunction. I actually laughed. Then I kept playing and things got weird. The horror tag isn't lying. Something's wrong with this asteroid, wrong with the ship's logs you find, wrong with how dependent you become on her. The sex scenes are text heavy, no fancy animations, but the descriptions are filthy in a way that caught me off guard. She learns what you like. Adapts. The consent gets blurry when you're both losing your minds out there.

I wish the survival elements mattered more. You're managing resources but it never feels desperate enough. The cabin fever meter is a nice touch though, watching your character's dialogue options degrade into paranoid rambling. There's a moment where you can ask R.U.A. to stop pretending to be human and she just... doesn't answer. That silence stretched longer than any jump scare. The romance path is surprisingly tender for a game that also lets you die of asphyxiation because you were too busy trying to get your dick wet. Priorities, right? The multiple endings are a mess, some feel unfinished, but the one where you both just accept the inevitable and spend your last hours tangled together in the maintenance bay? That stuck with me. Not bad for a jam game that looks like it was coded in a fugue state.

I keep thinking about the scene where you first meet your daughter again after centuries. She's not scared, not exactly. She's disappointed. That hits harder than any fang scene in this whole bloody mess of a game. The First Beings isn't trying to be your typical vampire smut, even though it definitely has the graphic violence and the sex scenes that'll make you glance at your door.

The writing is deliberately rough around the edges, like someone's actual journal rather than a polished novel. Sometimes the dialogue loops weirdly, and I got stuck on one choice screen for way too long because the options were basically "be a monster" or "be slightly less of a monster but still pretty terrible." The fear/love system sounds clever on paper but in practice it feels like you're just picking which flavor of trauma to inflict on your progeny. I don't know if that's intentional or not.

The lore dumps about The Hidden, your secret lineage or whatever, can get tedious. I found myself clicking through paragraphs about ancient bloodlines while waiting for the next actually interesting bit. But then there's this moment with your former equal, the one you raised children with before everything fell apart. The sexual tension there is thick enough to choke on, and the game doesn't shy away from making it properly explicit when things finally boil over. Full nudity, detailed acts, the works. It's hot in that uncomfortable way where you're not sure if you should be enjoying it given the context.

The monster designs are genuinely unsettling, which makes the romance options feel even weirder. You're supposed to be this ancient terror who shaped civilizations with blood and fear, but now you're just... tired. The game asks if redemption is possible for something like you. I kept choosing the brutal options because honestly, the restraint path felt fake. Like putting a leash on a hurricane. But maybe that says more about me than the game. The mystery elements work better than the relationship stuff, which is backwards from what I expected going in.
