TableTop BornStar is that kind of filth that pretends to be a respectable “board game experiment” and then just drags you into a slow, dirty corruption trip where you end up clicking “yes” to things you swore you wouldn’t. You’re this washed-up talent agent stuck in his office with an ankle bracelet, basically a horny goblin in a cheap suit, and you’ve got Mary Jane on the phone and in your cams, this adorable country girl who thinks Hollywood is about “art” and “dreams” and has no idea what cumshot even means yet. Every turn is dice and cards and little choices that feel small, like “take this photoshoot” or “meet this producer” or “try this new ‘acting exercise’ that just happens to involve a vibrator under the table”. Then ten turns later she’s doing anal for a low-budget indie “thriller” and you’re like, ok, maybe that one friendly massage suggestion was the start of a very long fall. It’s fun how the management side is just enough to feel like you’re actually running some crooked porn empire from your phone while you’re on the toilet, checking stats like “fame” and “innocence” and “kink” like it’s a spreadsheet, except the spreadsheet moans and asks if you like her new lingerie.

What really got me addicted is how the game keeps throwing you these decisions that sound sweet or romantic, then immediately gives you a way nastier branch if you’re in the mood to be a complete bastard. You can play the nice manager, hold her hand (and yeah, later, more than hand) and try to keep things “classy”, take her on slow-burn romance scenes, oral under the desk, soft cuddling after a creampie, all that fake Hollywood love story vibe. Or you can push her into exhibitionist gigs where she’s stripping in a cheap club with drunk assholes grabbing her big ass, backstage masturbation sessions just to “relax before the take”, weird board game events where a card suddenly lets you suggest a lesbian scene with her roommate and the only thing stopping you is your own conscience, which you probably left at the title screen. I had one run where she started in this cute sundress, barely kissing anyone, next thing she’s on a casting couch with three guys, toys involved, you’re watching from a camera like some happy little voyeur, and the game just shrugs like, “Hey, you rolled the card.” Then another run I tried to be more caring, focused on romance, and still somehow ended up with pregnancy drama and her asking if you’ll stay with her while she’s rubbing her belly and offering you a footjob because “you helped her so much”. Completely fucked up in the best way.

What I didn’t expect is how funny it is sometimes. There’s these stupid jokes about Hollywood, failed movies, directors who think they’re geniuses because they added one artsy black-and-white sex scene, and your character is just roasting everyone while also setting up gangbang auditions. The humor kind of hides how rough some choices are. One card event I got had Mary Jane doing a “serious” acting workshop which turns into blindfolded “trust exercises”, and the sound of the dice roll made me way more nervous than it should. Speaking of sounds, the audio is surprisingly decent: little gasps when you push her too far, slaps during spanking scenes that feel almost too real on headphones, wet sucking during oral that made me close other tabs fast so nobody hears. I wish there was a bit more variety in some moans, sometimes they loop in a way that made me think my browser bugged out, but I still kept playing, so whatever. The animated bits are short, kind of rough, but that fits the late 90s Hollywood trash vibe, like watching old bootleg porn tapes someone recorded over daytime TV. And those multiple endings sneak up on you: one time she was broken, fully corrupted and still smiling on red carpets, another time she was this successful “serious actress” who secretly sends you nudes between shoots, and I’m pretty sure there’s at least one path where you actually don’t ruin her completely, but I keep accidentally pulling cards with sex toys and group sex offers, so maybe I’m the problem, not the game.

Shadow-Moon Station feels like someone mashed together a slightly horny Mass Effect side quest and a messy office romance, then trapped it all on one lonely moon where HR definitely does not exist. You play this young engineer guy who clearly has “I just want a stable job” energy, but the moment he arrives on the station everyone either wants to fuck him, lie to him, recruit him into secret shit, or all three at once. The sci-fi part is not just background wallpaper either, the station has this cold corporate feeling, like a smiling logo over a meat grinder. You do your engineering things, fix stuff, push buttons, pretend to be a professional adult, while every corridor feels like something could go wrong, in your work report or in someone’s panties. It scratches that weird itch if you like the idea of being a tiny human on a metal coffin orbiting a dead rock, but also getting teased with soft lips and wet sounds in a cramped maintenance bay, with the stars outside not giving a single fuck.

What I really liked is how the sex doesn’t just happen because “okay, scene time now”. Sometimes you pick a flirty reply, then later you are alone with her in some observation deck and she just leans in, kisses you slow, sits on your lap and your brain is trying to remember if you locked the door. There is animated stuff, so when she slides her hand inside your pants and starts working you off, you actually see the motion, not just text. Same for oral, there is this one scene where a girl who pretends to be all serious scientist goes to her knees in a storage room, the camera close on her mouth around your cock, her tongue playing with the tip while she looks up at you like “we never speak of this in the lab.” And the game doesn’t shy away from full-on vaginal sex and creampies either. You can go slow romantic under dim station lights, or just grab her hips, fuck her hard against a console, and fill her while some alert blinks red in the background. Funny thing, the UI sound when a choice pops up kind of annoys me, it’s this tiny click that gets in your head, but then during a hot scene I almost missed an important branch because I was too focused on watching her ride you, tits bouncing, so maybe that stupid click saved my path. Choices actually matter too, like you can lean into office romance sweetness or drift into more secret, dirty affairs, with chances to end up tangled with women who also have their own lovers, including some subtle lesbian tension that can turn real if you play your cards and your tongue right. Half the time I forgot I was supposed to be investigating corporate irregularities, because I was busy deciding if I should meet the cute engineer for a private “system check” or follow the mysterious woman to a quiet corner of the station where she whispers classified information in your ear, then kisses your neck, then pushes you against cold metal and makes you cum inside her, like some twisted ritual to seal a pact the company will never see in the logs.

Train home, one hand on the phone, other hand pretending to hold the rail, and this game pops back in my head again. That dumb little title I opened “just for a quick peek” on Firefox between Slack pings, and then suddenly I’m watching this kinda pathetic, kinda hot Futa MC jerking off in a school locker room to a girl’s cardigan like it’s the Holy Grail. Asuna is exactly that type: quiet, looks normal, huge secret between her legs, brain packed with way too much horny. It’s all school corridors, after-class empty rooms, the faint smell you imagine from gym clothes and panties stuffed into a bag. She’s obsessed with Sakurako in such a messy, stalker way that it should feel wrong, but the writing leans into it so hard it becomes this weirdly honest fantasy of “what if my crush actually caught me doing this and didn’t freak out, just stared and said keep going”. When Sakurako sees her buried in the closet, dick out, using her clothes like a tissue, the whole mood flips in like two lines. No big romance speech, just that one line where she asks to watch, and suddenly the whole story pivots from secret perv to exhibition pet project. That turn is where the game sold me. I was already on board for the jerk-off-in-uniforms stuff, but it hits different when the target of the lust starts leaning in instead of running away.

Scenes feel like they’re written by someone who has actually edged to eroge in a cramped apartment and not some “professional” writer polishing every line. There’s a lot of clumsy phrasing, some horny repetition, and the audio is that super recognizable Japanese voice style where the girl sounds half embarrassed, half demon in heat. Sometimes the moans go on a bit too long while the text is saying almost nothing, and I kept tapping through like, yeah yeah I get it, she’s panting, please let me see what she does next with that toy. But then a line would land perfectly, like when Sakurako casually orders Asuna to stroke slower while she’s still in uniform, one shoe slipped off, and I just stopped and reread it. The power dynamic is funny because Asuna is the one with the dick, but she’s also the one basically chained by her own crush, getting told when to jerk, when to stop, where to cum. There’s a scene with her on her knees under a desk, trying to keep quiet while someone passes outside the classroom, and I actually grinned like an idiot on the subway, which is… not ideal. The different routes sneak up on you too. I picked choices almost at random on my phone, thinking “okay, this is clearly the horny option”, and then later I realized I completely locked myself into a more twisted relationship path without noticing. One run I ended up with a really intimate mutual play scene that felt almost sweet, the next I got something colder and way more humiliating, same two girls, same setting, just slightly different chain of “yes” to her requests. Some of the AI-touched art looks off in tiny places, like fingers fused weird or a stray strand of hair doing impossible gymnastics, and it pulled me out for a second, but then the next frame would hit me with Asuna’s face glazed and eyes rolled up, full ahegao, and honestly my brain just shut up and let it happen. Perfect for those shameless “five minutes in the bathroom with Chrome incognito and headphones half in” kind of sessions.

Your life is basically a shitty spreadsheet of coffee stains and ignored emails when she shows up. Not in a cool dramatic way either. One second you’re half-asleep at your desk, the next there’s this smug, gorgeous succubus stretching like she owns the place, tits out, tail swaying, heels on your paperwork. Calysindra feels like that one toxic situationship you know is bad for you, but the sex is ridiculous, so you keep answering their DMs anyway. Only this time, it’s your soul on the line, not just your self-respect. And yeah, the game actually leans into that. Every time you say “yes” to her, it feels a bit like you’re handing over another piece of yourself… and then she rewards you with a blowjob that makes your screen feel way too small.

What I liked is how the erotic stuff doesn’t just pop up as random cutscenes. You push her around a little, she pushes back harder. Let her ride you once while she’s whispering corrupt little promises in your ear, and suddenly she’s slipping a finger in your ass the next time, like, “Oh, you didn’t say no before, did you?” The escalation feels natural in a fucked up way. One route I played, I kept trying to act like a good guy, resisting her, pretending I’m better than this. Then I caved during this footjob scene where she has you on the floor, heels dug into your chest, toes wrapped around your cock, and she keeps asking, “You really think you’re in control here?” I swear I clicked through that scene too fast, like I was actually flustered. And then later the game quietly reminds you what you agreed to when she’s sitting in your lap, cleaning up your cum with her tongue and casually talking about claiming your soul like it’s rent money.

Sometimes the camera lingers way too long on her ass while she’s riding you, and I kinda love that, but also the UI button in the corner is one pixel off and it annoyed me every single time. You get these branches where you stop being just her toy and start pushing back for real, using this demonic blood thing that wakes up inside you. Suddenly the blowjob where she was in full control flips, and you have her on her knees, hand in her hair, fucking her throat until tears mess up her perfect makeup. She smiles through it, of course. She always does. There’s anal that actually feels earned, like you pushed the corruption far enough that her bending over the desk and begging you to “fill every hole” just makes sense now. There’s vaginal creampies where she tightens around you like she’s milking you dry on purpose, and you can either moan her name or growl in her ear and use her like a fleshlight with horns. One of my favorite bits is a small thing: she casually lifts her foot to your mouth during a normal dialogue scene, tells you to kiss it if you want her help. Nothing hardcore yet, just this soft corruption, and later that tiny choice turns into a full-on domination foot worship scene where you’re licking her soles while she fucks you from above. I still have no idea how many endings there are, I just keep chasing the ones where I either completely own her or lose myself inside her, and both feel weirdly comfortable. Anyway, the game opens in an office and I still don’t remember what the original job was. I just remember her tongue, her tail wrapping around my leg, and the way she smiles when I finally stop pretending I’m not enjoying all of it.
