Lena’s story starts quiet and a bit awkward, like that first shift at a new job where everything smells like old paper and furniture polish. She’s this shy girl dumped into a huge, old library that feels way too big for her. The game really leans into that silence. No jumps right away, no cheap “boo.” Just you, a slow crawl through dusty corridors, and Lena’s brain slowly getting louder than any sound effect. At first she’s just shelving books, logging weird titles, trying not to embarrass herself in front of the other staff. But the place has this almost wet, sticky atmosphere to it, especially in those restricted sections where the lights flicker in that “this is absolutely unsafe” way. There are these books that feel wrong before you even open them, and the game lets you just linger on them, making you choose if Lena peeks inside or pretends she’s a good girl. Of course she peeks. The erotic stuff doesn’t slap you in the face from the first click. It creeps in at the edges of her thoughts. Tiny flashes. A phrase in a book that hits way too close. A touch from a co-worker that lasts slightly longer than it should. A dream sequence where she’s not sure if that shadow touching her is a ghost, a god, or just her own pent-up frustration trying to cosplay as a demon. All that gets tied into this subtle horror vibe, like something in that library is watching her, gently pushing her to test herself, maybe ruin herself a bit. The sexy scenes feel like you’re reading Lena’s diary after she got horny on the bus and tried to pretend she wasn’t.

The game lets you lean her in different directions with your choices, and that part caught me. You can keep her timid and flustered, or you start letting her accept what turns her on, even when it’s clearly unhealthy. There’s a moment where she reads this ritual text that mixes religious guilt with raw, filthy desire, and you get the option to stop or keep reciting. I kept going, obviously, and the way her internal monologue shifts from “I shouldn’t” to “please more” is way hotter than any random porn animation. That same scene also has a little audio glitch that made my headphones crackle like broken ASMR, which annoyed me so much I had to pause, and then I went straight back because the writing had me by the throat. Also, the queer threads are handled in this messy, human way. She catches herself staring too long at a girl from the staff, and then later the unseen presence starts mimicking that girl’s voice in Lena’s fantasies. It’s fucked up, but in that “ok, I get why she’s wet and terrified at the same time” kind of way. The horror never fully jumps out with fangs, it just keeps suggesting that maybe the thing guiding her is inside her own head, or maybe it’s some horny eldritch archivist grooming her into a new role. I kept waiting for a cheap tentacle cliché that never properly arrived, which somehow made the teasing even more frustrating. Also, her shoes make this stupid little sound on the library floor and it drove me crazy, and I still don’t know why that detail stuck more than some plot points. Anyway, it’s a slow, sticky burn, more about watching a quiet girl pull herself apart choice by choice, page by page, until she’s not sure if she’s praying, masturbating, or both.

Imagine being dropped into a prison that looks more like some fucked up all-girl college dorm where the dress code is “tight, short, or nothing at all,” and you’re the only guy walking around with a hard-on that just keeps getting you in more trouble. That’s basically the feeling here. It pretends to be about rules and punishment, but very fast you notice every “discipline” scene is just an excuse to get someone’s tits out and press you against a wall. The guards glare at you, bark orders, then lean in too close. One of them shoved me against a metal door for “search” and the dialogue choice popped up right when her thigh was between my legs and I swear I misclicked because my mouse hand was literally shaking. I picked the flirty line by accident. It worked, I think? She slapped me and then her hand stayed on my chest way too long.

The game feels like reading a horny anime fanfic that somehow learned how to talk back at you. You’re always choosing between being obedient little toy, cocky asshole, or that dumb mix of both that gets you in the dirtiest scenes. There is a whole power thing going on all the time. They lock you in, chain you to a chair, make you answer questions, and it should be scary, but I was just staring at the way her uniform shirt kept opening more each time I played it differently. Some scenes are slow burn: long talks in the cell, stories about why each woman is even in this place, and you’re sitting there thinking “ok deep tragic backstory” and suddenly she pushes your face between her legs like it’s the most normal thing. That mood swing hits harder than my Chrome crashing when too many porn tabs are open. One guard is kind of soft and motherly until she snaps and uses you like a toy, another one acts like she hates your guts but keeps pulling you into empty rooms to “teach you rules” with her tongue in your mouth.

What got me was how much the story pretends you still maybe want to escape, while every choice slowly turns you into the prison’s personal dick. You start negotiating little favors: extra shower time for letting a guard tie your hands behind your back, better food in exchange for licking her boots clean, that kind of dirty bargain that makes you feel wrong and horny at same time. The AI-looking art sometimes shifts a bit weird around the eyes or the hands, but somehow that almost fits the whole “this place isn’t real, it’s like a fever dream where everyone wants to fuck you” vibe. One scene where you’re in the shower room, steam everywhere, multiple women walking around pretending they don’t see you checking them out, felt like my browser lagging in the best way. I clicked a dialogue option too fast and ended up agreeing to “let them inspect me” and suddenly I’m surrounded, towel gone, their fingers everywhere. Didn’t even feel like a choice anymore. The game keeps whispering in your ear that you’re trapped, but truth is, by the time a guard presses your head into her lap and tells you you’re her good little prisoner, you really don’t want those doors to open.

Tomai feels like one of those messy horny summers you remember wrong on purpose. You’ve got this cocky little guy who thinks he’s hot shit in his tiny village, tossing himself between hanging out with his chill monster dad, this weirdly intense Lady who clearly knows more than she says, and two best friends who are so obviously fuck material it almost hurts. The whole thing plays out over a handful of days before the Night Festival, but it never feels rushed. You’re bouncing between lazy lakeside afternoons, drunk laughing in someone’s cramped-ass bedroom, smoking under trees while everyone pretends they’re “just friends,” and then suddenly you’re in the middle of some soft-core emotional chaos where somebody’s hand is exactly where it shouldn’t be. It’s not porn that jumps at you in the first second. It’s that slow-build kind of erotic, like when you’re on Discord at midnight, typing dumb jokes, and the chat suddenly shifts into “ok but what if we actually kissed though” energy.

The sex doesn’t feel like some porn studio script. It’s clumsy sometimes, sweet sometimes, occasionally too much and you’re like ok, calm down, you are still children of the forest or whatever. The boys especially, Burdoc and Malik, they’ve got that idiot-friends-who-accidentally-make-out vibe. One minute they’re teasing Tomai about being “a big deal” and the next you’re watching them pin him down on the grass, fingers on his waist, breath way too close, and you feel that little lurch of “oh shit, they might actually go all the way.” When it gets explicit, it leans into bodies, sweat, little sounds, the awkwardness of someone not sure where to put their hands, the shock when a tongue goes lower than expected. It is horny, but not factory-produced horny. More like walking home from a date, replaying every time their thigh brushed yours, except here you do get to see what happens when someone finally snaps and says fuck it, come here. There is also this whole quiet queer thing going on, like everyone is way too chill with how flexible their attraction is, but not in a fake woke way. More like: “yeah, I want to ride my best friend and maybe also worship this terrifying goddess and ask my dad why he looks so hot in that robe” kind of way. Feels relatable if you ever had a crush on three people at the same party.

What surprised me is how intimate the small stuff is. Like you’ll spend a day just fishing with Father, the sun low, water slow, the conversation circling around growing up and expectations, and suddenly your brain jumps to those nights where you open Twitter to check memes and end up doomscrolling queer threads about “found family” and “polycules that actually work.” The game quietly says: yeah, you can love more than one person, you can want more than one body, and it doesn’t have to blow up in drama every time. Sex here fits inside that mood. Sometimes it’s comforting, almost like aftercare before the actual care. Sometimes it’s a horny mistake that still feels good. The festival becomes this excuse for everyone to push past what they usually pretend in public. You get that mood of: are we still just joking or is your hand staying on my thigh a little too long on purpose. It’s not polished, some scenes feel a bit rough, like a fanfic draft your friend sends you on Telegram at 2 in the afternoon, but that roughness actually fits. There are dick jokes beside serious talks about futures, kisses that turn into grinding, a lazy afternoon that becomes a threesome if you play it right. It’s queer, a bit shameless, sometimes soft, sometimes filthy, like puberty plus magic plus “I saw this on Pornhub and wanna try.” Not subtle, not clinical, just horny kids on the edge of adult life, pretending they’re in control while their bodies and hearts absolutely are not.

A random number pings your phone and for a second you think it is some boring spam, some "your parcel is on the way" crap, then the avatar pops up and it’s this ridiculous fire-haired bombshell with that kind of smug smile that basically screams: "yeah, I know you’re already hard." That is pretty much the whole mood of this game. It pretends to be about choice and romance and texting etiquette, but in reality it is about how fast you go from "who is this?" to "ok, send more pics, I’m already in too deep." The writing leans into it nicely: short, teasing messages, a lot of tiny pauses where you stare at the screen like an idiot, waiting for the three dots that never come when you expect them. It feels like being ghosted and sexted at the same time.

What I really liked is how the tone shifts in your chat with her. At first she acts like a troll. She sends flirty lines that could be jokes, like she is testing if you are a creep or just horny with some charm. If you answer too thirsty, she calls you out, but not in a heavy way, more like "wow you moved fast there, tiger." If you play cool, she pushes harder, talks about what she is wearing, drops some fetish hints that seem silly at first, then suddenly you realize your replies are way too careful because you want to see every branch. It is still short, you can finish a whole route in less time than you spend doomscrolling Twitter, but there are those little splits where your choice actually matters. One moment you are joking about her hair color, the next moment you are choosing between a shy compliment and a very explicit description of what you would do if she really showed up at your door, soaking wet from the rain, phone in hand.

The lewd stuff hits better than I expected from a "haha funny fetish VN" kind of thing. When she starts describing what she is doing on her bed, the text slows down, messages come in bursts, sometimes just one short line with a sound, or her breathing, or a picture you do not see but she describes like a voice note in text form. There is one path where she makes you type out exactly what you want her to do to herself and if you go too generic, she actually comments that you are boring and steers the scene in her own way. That tiny bit made me grin like an idiot. At the same time, sometimes the horniness jumps so quickly that the "romance" tag feels like a joke, but I kind of like that. It is romance in the sense of: two strangers oversharing, flirting, getting off, then pretending that was deep. The game knows it, it does not try to hide it. A couple of endings are unexpectedly soft though, with her falling asleep mid chat or just asking you something oddly personal right after a filthy exchange. It messes with your head in a cute, slightly perverse way. The whole thing is like opening a wrong-number text and deciding, very clearly against common sense, that you are absolutely going to flirt with this hyper redhead until everything either goes wonderfully right or delightfully wrong.
