Hot Prospect teaser feels like someone tried to mash a sports manga with a horny training sim and then got distracted halfway, in a good way and also kind of a mess. You play this dude who is technically a football coach, but let’s be real, nobody is here for tactical analysis. The real focus is the shy girl you’re supposed to help “do good football things”, and yeah, that starts innocent enough with drills and practice schedules, but it drifts into “ok, this is not how real coaches work” territory pretty fast. Her whole vibe is straight from those manga heroines who hide behind their bangs, except here the camera is absolutely not shy about where it lingers. You open a scene, she shows up in tight training shorts, your brain immediately forgets what position she was supposed to play.

What stuck with me after closing the browser was not some big plot twist, just tiny weird moments. Like when you’re in the locker room talking about strategy and the dialogue suddenly slips from normal coaching talk into this awkward flirty mess. One line she says sounds exactly like something I’ve seen in a low-budget doujin translation, like the dev probably read the same scanlations in Tachiyomi or some sketchy reader app. Her body proportions are classic “artist loves ass and tits more than bones”, all that weight sits right there, and the clothes pretend they exist out of pure politeness. There’s a shot where she’s stretching before practice, leaning forward, and the camera just stays on her ass for such a long time I actually laughed. It’s not realistic at all, but also, yeah, I replayed that bit twice. The animations sometimes look a bit stiff, like the character is thinking “what is walk” while the tits do their own little physics experiment, and yet somehow it matches the horny manga energy. You know that panel where everything looks great except one arm is wrong? It’s that.

Under all the lewd stuff there is this attempt at an actual training arc, and it feels like a half-serious parody of sports anime. You talk about teamwork, mental focus, drills, then two lines later she’s asking if there’s a “special reward” if she scores. Dialogue grammar is a bit off in places, which honestly makes it funnier to me, like reading an old fan translation from MangaReader in 2012 where the editor clearly gave up on page 7. The teaser is short, but you can already see how the power dynamic will go: shy girl, big curves, trying to impress her coach, constantly flustered while the story gently pushes her into more sexual “training”. It’s not subtle. At all. There’s a moment where she clearly wants praise for doing a basic move and you can pick a more suggestive compliment, and that felt exactly like those VN adaptation choices that never existed in the original manga but somehow still fit. I kind of wish the football side was deeper, but it won’t be, you can tell. The game knows what it’s here for: big ass in too-tight shorts, big tits barely contained in a sports bra, 3D angles that keep trying to slide under her shirt instead of showing the actual field. You’ll probably forget half the lines, but that locker room stretch scene? That stays.

Natsuki really should stop going on vacation. Every time this woman leaves her house, someone ends up buried deep inside her who is not her husband, and honestly, I respect the commitment to bad choices. This time it is supposed to be a fancy hotel date with Yoshihiko, grown up, classy, proper married couple stuff. Champagne, soft music, the kind of evening you post to Instagram with some fake quote about everlasting love, you know? Then they get shuffled into sharing a table with Tatsuki, this rich old gentleman with that polite smile that screams "I have ruined plenty of marriages and slept just fine after." The story just quietly slides from warm romance into that queasy, horny territory where you already know everything is about to go wrong, you just do not know how fast. Half the erotic tension is in the way the game makes you sit through all the little social details: knees brushing under the table, wine being poured a little too slowly, his hand resting a bit too near her thigh. It is not subtle, but in that good trashy drama way. Like watching a cheating wife JAV you know is scripted, but still yelling at the screen, "Girl, you are not coming back from this."

The game hits that sweet, nasty spot where you are not just watching Natsuki get corrupted, you are basically helping gravity pull her panties down. She sits there in her pretty wife uniform, acting polite, blushing when Tatsuki leans in too close, pretending to be shocked when his hand creeps up her leg under the tablecloth. And you get stuck in this loop of small choices, not big cinematic ones. Let her pull away, or let her freeze for a second longer. Let her pretend she did not notice his fingers brushing her inner thigh. Let her excuse herself to the bathroom, where of course the "gentleman" just happens to follow and pin her softly to the wall, whispering about how she tasted that summer, like he is remembering a favorite dessert instead of someone else’s wife. It is cruel in that slow way, where her wedding ring is always right there in the frame while she is getting her mouth stuffed or her legs pushed apart. She gives these little protests, especially at first, all "we cannot, I am married now, I love Yoshi" while her body is already grinding on his cock, her breasts bouncing out of her dress, nipples slipping free. There is one scene at the hotel room door that almost broke me: she tries to go back to her faithful husband, eyes wet, then turns around and walks back down the hall to Tatsuki’s room instead, like her feet just betrayed her. No big speech, no huge drama, just a quiet, horny surrender. Next shot, she is on all fours on his bed, ass up, wedding ring shining while he pumps her full and she moans his name instead of "husband." It is mean. It is hot. It is that kind of story where the second time she cheats feels worse and better at the same time, and you sit there, lonely, clicking through it all on your phone and wondering why fictional people get more intense sex than you ever did.

You start as this smug dark side guy who thinks he’s hot shit because he pulled off a Sith ritual and chained Ahsoka’s mind to his. On paper she’s your slave, in practice she still looks at you like she’d cut your balls off if the collar slipped for one second. That’s basically the whole tone of the game: she’s forced, but not broken, and your job is to grind her down day by day, scene by scene, until that stubborn Jedi “justice” crap turns into “please use me, master” while she’s dripping on the floor. It’s not subtle at all. Morning you push her out into the world to earn credits by doing “jobs”, night you drag her back to your quarters and spend those credits to push her one more step into filth. The first time I sent her to work and she came back pissed, trying to keep her arms over her tits while the game quietly shows how many guys groped her, yeah, that got my attention pretty fast.

What I liked is how simple the loop is, but the scenes feel like they’re escalating in a way that makes sense. Early on, she does basic tasks with a lot of attitude, yelling at you, refusing anything that feels too sexual. You try to touch her ass and she slaps your hand away, calls you a monster, all that Jedi talk, and you don’t get shit out of it except a hard dick and a “not enough corruption” note. A few nights later, same scene, but now your hand stays on her ass a bit longer, she still protests but her eyes avoid yours, she breathes faster. Push it again and suddenly she’s letting your fingers slip between her cheeks while she bites her lip and pretends it’s “only because of the spell”. Yeah right. And when you finally make her masturbate for you, she tries to keep her legs closed while your character just keeps ordering her to spread wider. The camera loves those internal view shots when you finally creampie her, showing how deep your cock is buried. It’s dirty in a very focused way: butt stuff, mouth, pussy, hands, toys, repeat, but each time with more submission and less resistance, until she’s doing group sex to farm credits and you barely even have to tell her.

Don’t go in expecting big epic Star Wars story. There is a bit of vibe, some nods to different species and places, but this is not about politics or lore. This is about turning one specific orange alien with big tits and a perfect ass into your personal fuck doll. You get your anal, your oral, sloppy bukkake sessions where she kneels there covered in cum stains across her face and lekku while NPCs laugh, and she still throws in these weak little protests like “this isn’t me” right after she swallows on command. I’m usually pretty vanilla, I like regular sex and maybe some light dom stuff, so the whole prostitution angle and selling her out for group scenes was a bit much for me at first. Then I sent her once “just to see”, watched her come back fucked stupid with jizz leaking out, credits chinking in, and my brain went “ok, I get it now”. If you like being the one in control, telling a proud girl what to do until she finally begs for more cock in every hole at the same time, this thing is basically a corruption simulator with a Star Wars skin and a big focus on Ahsoka’s body getting used, filled and owned. It’s rough, it’s shameless, and it doesn’t pretend to be anything else.

This one feels like reading someone’s old chat logs that you were never supposed to see, but the window is stuck open and you just… keep scrolling. You play as this guy who meets again with a childhood friend, and right away you feel that awkward mix of nostalgia and “fuck, I used to jerk off thinking about her.” It’s not some big heroic setup, it’s more like you walk into a familiar room and everything’s been moved around, including her. She’s older, softer in the right places, that kind of lazy MILF hotness where she doesn’t even need to try. The game doesn’t spend an eternity on exposition, which I actually liked. There’s this quiet tension where your brain is already filling in the gaps: the afternoons you had together, the stupid inside jokes, all that “we almost kissed once” energy sitting there like a loaded gun.

The kinetic format helps the pace a lot. You’re not pausing every two minutes to pick some fake deep choice; it just drags you along the way a bad memory does. There’s a really nasty pleasure in how the scenes are framed. You keep noticing hands, lips, little motions. Her sitting too close on the couch, the way she looks over her shoulder when she knows you’re staring at her ass, how her tongue looks when she laughs. Then it slides into the sexual stuff in that very “oh shit this is actually happening” way. The oral and hand stuff is detailed enough that you can almost hear it in your head, but it never becomes cartoonish. She uses her mouth like she’s done this a lot and stopped being shy about it years ago. At the same time, you get those ugly flashes of jealousy, because it’s clear she didn’t stay frozen in time waiting for you. The NTR angle hits more in the gut than in the dick sometimes. That sick feeling when you realize she talks about another man with the same familiar smile she used to have just for you, while still stroking you off, like your cock is just one more thing she can multitask.

The voyeur elements are what actually made it stick in my brain more than the sex itself. Half the time you’re not even “participating,” you’re watching, listening, overhearing. The game likes to put you behind half-open doors and on the wrong side of the bed, where you can see everything but can’t change anything. Some scenes feel like that shitty habit of stalking an ex on Instagram and then clicking too far back. The visuals lean into that: angles where you’re not the main focus, you’re just the guy in the corner staring, maybe useful, maybe not. There is one thing that annoyed me, the way a really important emotional beat just kind of passes in two lines and then the story runs straight to the next blowjob like it’s late for work, but I guess that rushed feeling kind of matches the whole “you lost her a long time ago, idiot” vibe. Anyway, if you really want to squeeze everything out of it, don’t skip past the slower parts. Let yourself sit in the discomfort, in the little looks and small humiliations. The cum scenes hit harder when you’ve let the resentment simmer first.

Rob’s whole life is kinda fucked from the start, which is honestly the best thing about this game. He’s this broke college dude nobody in his family really gives a shit about, except when they need him out of the way. Parents emotionally ghosted him, all the attention is on the sister, and he’s just drifting. It’s not tragic in that sad indie movie way, though, it’s more like: “yeah, life dumped on him… now watch what he does with it.” The moment he walks into that poker game, you already feel this quiet “oh, something’s about to go off the rails.” And it does. Hard. The dev doesn’t waste time with fake tension. One stupid decision, one risky hand, and suddenly Rob’s sex life goes from zero to “how the hell is this still legal” pretty fast.

The girls don’t fall in his lap for free, which I liked and also hated. You’ve got to push through all this awkward tension, family drama, bad choices, little moral lines getting crossed, and it builds up the horny in a slow burn that sometimes actually pays off. When a scene finally opens up and you get Rob going from shy loser to grabbing a girl by the hips, tongue deep in her while she’s pinned against something, it hits stronger because you remember where he started. The game loves messy faces and stupidly expressive eyes, those over-the-top ahegao looks that would be cringe in theory but here they kind of fit the whole “world gone wrong” vibe. The animations don’t try to be Hollywood smooth, they just focus on what matters: thrusts that look like they actually have weight, lips wrapping around him in a way that feels wet and a bit too detailed, that tiny pause right before he pushes all the way in and she twitches. Sometimes the angles are weird for no reason, like the camera is horny and confused, and I respect that.

What really hooked me was when the story stops pretending Rob is some innocent victim and starts treating him like a guy who’s totally fine fucking his way through every problem. You can feel this tiny power fantasy bloom: he starts talking with a bit more bite, standing closer, saying shit he wouldn’t dare say before. One scene he’s getting ridden lazy and slow, almost sweet, then later he’s practically using a girl like a toy, mouth full, eyes rolled, and the audio really sells it. Moans hit that not-quite-voice-acted but not cheap either zone, wet sounds are aggressive in your headphones, and the little gasps when he speeds up are filthy in a good way. I had Spotify running in the background at one point, a chill playlist, and it actually worked way too well with a bathroom quickie scene, so now my “focus” mix is ruined forever. If you jump in, best way to enjoy it is to lean into Rob being a bit of an asshole, take risks at the poker table, follow the situations that feel wrong but hot, and don’t rush-click through the build up, or you’ll miss half the fun that makes the cumshots feel earned instead of just another loop.

Memory hits you like a drunk kiss: messy, off-target, and a little too slow. You wake up in some rich-looking place that obviously isn’t yours, and your brain is basically an empty save slot. No name, no past, nothing. What you do have is a body that works just fine and a house full of women who look like they walked out of the “forbidden” tab in your Pornhub history. They act like they know you. Or like they’re supposed to know you. That weird tension is the best part: everyone fakes normal life, but every glance hangs one second too long, every “accidental” touch lasts a bit more than polite. You’re the only guy in the house, and the game never lets you forget that. Walking through the hallway feels like scrolling a sex playlist. The “mom, but maybe not really mom, calm down, it’s a porn game” type with a ridiculous ass bent over the washing machine, the soft-spoken one sitting on the couch with her tits half-slipping out of her top, the one who pretends she’s not checking you out while you pass behind her. It all looks too clean, too posed, like those 3D porn renders you hide behind boring folder names, and the game leans into that. Every scene is like you just paused a premium video at the best moment and then someone told you, “Ok, now unpause and go touch her.”

What I liked is that the seduction is actually slow when it wants to be, then suddenly horny as fuck. You sit at the table, she passes you a drink, her fingers brush your hand, and the camera kind of lingers on her chest when she leans in. Later you’re in her room, “helping” her find something on the floor, your hand ends up on her hip, then a little lower, and she doesn’t pull away. Next thing you know, her ass is pressed into your crotch and you get that choice: be a fake gentleman or push it. Pick the fun option and the game rewards you with those porn-mag angles: your hand under her shirt, thumb grazing her nipple, that slow squeeze while she pretends to protest but her breathing gives her away. They really like teasing here. Like, there’s a scene where you can just stand in the doorway and watch her shower through the slightly open door. The steam, her fingers between her legs, the water sliding over her huge tits, and you’re there like a creep, jerking off quietly with your phone screen lighting your face like some cursed incognito tab. The game actually sold me on the handjob scene more than on some of the full sex stuff: her on her knees, close-up on her lips while she whispers shit she definitely shouldn’t say to a guy who might be related, her hand wrapped around you, playing with the tip, smearing precum with this lazy, confident movement that says she’s done this before. Oral and anal show up too, obviously, and there’s this one anal moment where she tries to pretend it hurts “too much” while still pushing back on you, and the look on her face is that perfect mix of “you’re too big” and “don’t you dare stop.” There are creampies that land exactly where they should, dripping out in these thick strings, and the romance angle kind of sneaks in, because between all the filthy shit she sometimes looks at you like she actually cares who you are, not just what you can do with your tongue. It’s trashy, it’s horny, it’s a little bit wrong on purpose, and it knows exactly which sick little fantasies live on your phone.

Tali is absolutely not the shy little quarian tech nerd people remember from the original games. Here she’s more like the center of a very rude quiz show where every question is “How far are you willing to go this time?” and the answer keeps getting filthier. The story picks up after she escapes this messed up ghost ship, and instead of going back to anything safe, she ends up bouncing around space with a bunch of “friends” who have very specific ideas about what to do with her suit, her body, and her obedience. One moment you’re in a legit combat scene, trying to manage shields and positioning, and the next moment losing a fight means Tali is on her knees, visor fogged, being used like a trophy by whatever monster just wrecked you. And yeah, the camera really loves her ass. Whoever built those shots deserves an award. Maybe “Excessive Focus On Tali’s Butt” gold medal.

The game kind of feels like a horny Mass Effect quiz where every choice is secretly: a) blowjob, b) anal, c) corruption, d) all of the above. You run around in this sandbox structure, poke different parts of the ship or station, and suddenly you’re in some awkward scene with Liara teasing her while EDI throws dry comments in the background like she’s hosting a porn podcast. One of my favorite dumb moments: I was half-tabbing out to check Discord, left a teasing scene running with Tali “practicing” oral on some alien cock, came back and she had switched positions and was riding instead because I let the idle animation chain continue. No tooltip, no pop up, just “you ignored the scene, now she’s even more corrupted, congrats.” It’s janky in spots, the animations sometimes loop too obviously, and Kasumi just kind of appears, steals the spotlight with a handjob scene, then vanishes again like a horny ninja. Never explained properly, and the game just shrugs and moves on.

What’s nice is how it leans fully into parody without being shy about anything. Miranda’s big tits are used exactly how you think, Ashley is still an uptight soldier but now her idea of discipline is getting Tali to “follow orders” with vaginal and anal rewards, and somewhere in the middle Shepard is there, but half of the time feels like a side character in his own porn. The corruption aspect creeps up on you in a stupidly fun way: early Tali is awkward, blushing, touching herself alone in a quiet room, just masturbation and a bit of teasing. A few bad fights lost, some “training” with Shiala and Samara, one very wrong encounter with a slime-like monster, and suddenly she’s the one grabbing cocks first, begging for more, suit open in places you’re pretty sure are not Alliance regulation. It’s dirty, it’s uneven, it repeats a couple of angles too much, and the UI sometimes hides a choice you swear should be there. But when she bends over in zero-g and the whole scene turns into this slow, weightless anal fuck with her gasping inside the helmet, you kind of forget what you were annoyed about. Or what you were doing before the scene started. Or why Jira is still open in another tab.

Nightwraith feels like someone took a classic spandex comic, spilled horny brain all over it, and forgot to wipe it up. The main girl is this skinny but kind of thick redhead who wants to be a “serious superheroine” and then spends half the time with her tits out, yelling at thugs while her suit is falling apart. She talks a lot, which I liked and hated at same time. On one side it makes her feel like real person with attitude, on other side I’m reading her doing snarky banter while she’s getting her pussy destroyed and I’m thinking, girl, focus, you’re literally choking on a cock right now. The whole thing is superheroes stuff, capes and masks and stupid names, but the sex is the part that actually feels grounded. When she’s on her knees blowing a futa villain and trying not to gag, that’s actually more believable than the crime plot.

I’m a parent with teens in the house, and honestly, this game is 100% “I close the browser fast when someone walks past my door” material. It’s not just boobs and tongue. There is straight-up hardcore scenes: vaginal pounding, messy oral, cum on her face, futa-on-girl, her riding a trans heroine with a huge cock, all that. Superpowers are used in that very “of course porn would do this” way. She gets tossed around, pinned to walls, clothes ripped off with some flashy power, and then she’s getting fucked while arguing about justice. There is one moment where she’s trying to interrogate a girl with a dick and it just collapses into her ending up on her back, legs shaking, costume pushed to the side so you see everything. I liked that her costume doesn’t magically fix itself. Once her suit is shredded, it stays that way in the scene, breasts half hanging out, her ass almost fully bare while she’s still pretending she is a serious hero. The 3D-style models are sometimes hot and sometimes weird. In one shot she looks like a badass comic poster, in the next her eyes are doing that “Sims character just woke up” stare. It annoyed me for like 10 seconds, then I’m watching her tongue wrap around somebody’s shaft and I forget about it.

The Red Sirens gang is kind of funny, they’re “evil”, but most of what we see is them turning every encounter into something sexual. Like, yeah, yeah, city in danger, sure, but the real threat is that every girl on screen seems one wrong move away from ending up on all fours. What really messed with my head as a parent is that the game actually has some story and personality. She has this scrappy “I got this” vibe, she talks about proving herself, she tries to act tough, but the porn doesn’t care and just steamrolls that. One moment she’s swinging across rooftops, next she’s pinned between two futa bodies, one stretching her mouth, one pumping into her wet pussy, costume gloves still on like she’s pretending this is “part of the mission”. There’s a bit where she actually uses her powers in a sex scene, and instead of it feeling noble or heroic, it just looks like she’s helping them fuck her better. I kept thinking, “ok, this is way too much if my kid even clicks the wrong tab”, and still I kept going to the next scene. The stripping is almost more erotic than the full nudity sometimes. A ripped zipper, exposed nipple peeking through, her trying to pull her leotard back up while cum is dripping from her lips. I wish the game would slow down a tiny bit on the quips and let her just moan more, but that’s not going to change, and maybe that stubborn tone is part of the weird charm. It’s a messy, horny superhero comic that forgot it was supposed to be about justice and decided it was about how many times a redheaded heroine can get filled.

You start as this shy-looking, kinda nerdy occult freak in a school that feels way too normal for the shit that starts happening. First scene already hits like a truck: steamy shower, another girl walks in, cute face, soft voice, then you look down and she is packing. No slow build up, just straight “oh fuck, I’m on my knees now, guess I’m into this.” The game really leans into that “I lost control and liked it way too much” vibe. The ahegao faces your MC makes when she gets throat fucked or filled are way over the top, but in a fun way. It is not subtle at all, she looks like her soul left her body every time someone cums in her. Felt kinda cursed to be clicking through dialogue about angels and demon lore while my protagonist is getting creampied in the school bathroom and moaning like she’s in a porn compilation, but somehow it works.

Then that dusty bookstore thing happens and you get the Crowley family drama, hell politics, Lilith doing petty ex energy, all that religious corruption fantasy. I liked that they don’t pretend your girl is “pure.” From the beginning she is horny, curious, and already into weird shit. The corruption is more about power and mindset than “good girl turns bad.” One moment you are just a confused futa/trans occult student who masturbates in her room to creepy demon symbols, next moment you are juggling a growing group of girls, MILFs, monster chicks and actual demons who all want to either worship you, ride you, or ruin you. There is a nun with religious guilt issues who talks about sin while she is literally sitting on your face, and I laughed and also got hard. That balance of “this is kinda silly” and “this blowjob scene is actually hot” is one of the best things, even when the writing goes a bit too edgy.

Sandbox part is messy in that janky porn game way. You wander around, trigger events, sometimes you get a handjob, sometimes you get nothing and just read some extra occult text you forgot instantly. I kinda loved being lost though. It felt like scrolling horny Twitter with ten tabs open: you go to check on one girl, end up in the library with a demon milf explaining how to open a dimensional gate using your pussy as a ritual focus. There is an early event where a monster girl pins you to the bed, fucks your ass slow while whispering promises of power, then suddenly switches and uses you like a cum dump, filling every hole and leaving you drooling and glassy-eyed. I was like “ok this is too much” while clicking next as fast as possible. My only stupid complaint is that some minor scenes repeat with almost the same dirty talk and it annoyed me for no real reason. But then I unlocked this bukkake ritual where half your harem coats your face as an offering to a demon queen and I forgot I was mad. It is messy, blasphemous, full of incest hints, possessive lesbians, anal curses, weird rituals and way too many fluids. Honestly feels like browsing a horny occult subreddit at three different levels of degeneracy at once, and I mean that in the nicest, filthiest way.

Atlas is that kind of immortal asshole who thinks he has everything under control, and then one horny night just blows up four centuries of “peace” because he smells the wrong pussy in the wrong crowd. He is the prince of vampires, everyone whispers his name like he is some tragic hero, but in practice you are just a very old bastard with fangs, a hard dick, and a talent for attracting trouble with tits. You walk into this human party, sniff something strange, and there she is: Leyala. Gorgeous, guarded, looks like she could stab you or ride you, maybe both in same scene. She is hiding something huge, and of course the best way to get the truth is to push her against a wall and see how long she can keep secrets with your hand between her legs.

The whole thing plays like someone mixed horny Skyrim with a trashy vampire soap opera and Pornhub tabs left open in the background. One moment you are talking politics with ancient nobles, next moment you have three girls in your bed, two tongues around your shaft and one pretty little thing kissing your chest like you are some romantic idiot from a dating sim. There is a real “collect them all” vibe too. Dark skinned warrior milf who pretends she hates you while grinding her ass on your thigh. Shy asian mage who blushes like crazy the first time you make her stroke you under the table while the council is arguing about war. Blonde elf who says she is not into girls, then five minutes later is licking another woman’s pussy while you push your cock between their tits, using both their chests like one big slippery toy. The game just keeps stacking scenes like that, threesomes that suddenly become foursomes, a “simple” massage that turns into you giving an anal creampie because you clicked the slightly more rude option.

What I liked is how it does not rush the filth but still never forgets the point. You talk, you flirt, you roleplay the gentleman or the controlling bastard, you pretend to care about prophecies and realms, and then your “romantic moment” ends with you finishing all over a pretty ebony girl’s face while her best friend sits on your tongue, shaking and moaning loud enough that guards probably hear. Sometimes it feels almost sweet, like when you slowly help a nervous virgin relax, kissing her thighs, letting her ride you at her own pace, until she suddenly loses control and claws your chest when you cum deep inside. Then five minutes later you are ordering two experienced lesbians to put on a show for you in the bath, one of them sliding your cock between her ass cheeks while the other sucks the tip every time it pops out. It is messy, animated, completely unashamed, and the story keeps pretending it is about saving the Seven Realms when actually it is about how many different mouths, asses and tight wet holes one smug vampire prince can ruin before the world ends.
