Luke's got this whole university thing figured out - or at least he thinks he does. This isn't your typical college romance where some awkward freshman stumbles through dating mishaps. Nah, Luke's been through this rodeo before, literally. Time loops, resets, whatever you want to call it - he's lived his first year over and over until he's basically gaming the system. Now he's ready for what he calls "Phase Two," which sounds way more strategic than it probably should be for a guy just trying to get laid.

The whole premise is pretty wild when you think about it. Luke's essentially become a relationship speedrunner, knowing exactly which buttons to push with each girl. There's this maid cafe setup that becomes central to everything - because of course there is. The game throws you into managing relationships with different girls who each have their own specific kinks and fetishes. One minute you're dealing with some vanilla romance situation, next thing you know you're deep in BDSM territory or watching some serious NTR unfold. The variety is honestly overwhelming sometimes. You've got your classic anime parody characters mixed in too - I spotted what looked like Nico Robin and Boa Hancock variants, which feels both nostalgic and weird at the same time.

What gets me is how the game handles the whole "perfect base" concept Luke keeps talking about. It's like he's treating relationships like some kind of RPG stat management, which... honestly isn't that far from reality if we're being real here. The turn-based combat elements feel randomly thrown in, but somehow work with the overall simulator vibe. There's phone interactions, dating mechanics, and this whole corruption progression system that gets pretty intense. The multiple endings thing means you're constantly second-guessing your choices, wondering if you're optimizing for the right fetish path or missing out on some kinky scenario. Luke might have his advantage, but navigating all these relationship dynamics still feels like controlled chaos.

Lucio’s whole life is basically tits, cards, and terrible business decisions, and the game just throws you in the middle of that mess like “yeah, good luck, boss.” You’re this guy who somehow owns a brand new casino and has no idea how to not fuck it up. Every choice you make swings between “professional owner” and “degenerate perv” and the girls react to that. The casino feels like your hunting ground and your prison at same time. One minute you’re pretending to care about revenue and poker odds, next minute you’re staring at a redhead dealer trying to remember how to speak because her shirt keeps slipping lower every time you raise the bet. It’s very much a visual novel brain, so you’re clicking through dialogue, watching CGs pop up, choosing lines that range from smooth to “wow, I should be arrested for saying that.” The humor is stupid in a good way, like the game is constantly winking at you. It knows you’re here to see big tits and big asses bouncing around the poker tables, and it doesn’t try to be high art or some shit. The AI CGs sometimes look a little too clean, like the girls are models in some weird casino catalog, but that actually kinda works with the parody vibe.

What I liked most is that the “romance” is horny as hell but still feels like a slow burn, especially if you’re the type who plays solo and reads everything like it’s your personal soap opera. Teasing is the main dish here. Girls lean in close, whisper bullshit in your ear, bend over to pick up cards, pretend they don’t notice your eyes are stuck to their cleavage, then pull back right before you think “ok, now we fuck.” Clothing disappears step by step. First jacket, then the tight shirt, then the bra just slightly moved so you see the side of the nipple in one CG, then next scene she’s sitting in your lap in only panties talking about “raising the stakes” and you’re like yeah ok I guess productivity is dead today. I had one scene where I kept winning at poker against this stacked redhead, and every time she lost she had to remove something. The way the camera slowly goes lower, from her smug face to those heavy tits squeezed in a bra that’s absolutely losing the war, to her ass pressed against the chair, was way more exciting than just “here’s full nudity in 2 clicks.” And at the same time, sometimes the transitions between scenes are really abrupt, like you go from joking to almost sex in a single text box and it feels like the script skipped a page, but then she cracks a dumb joke about your “poker face” and it somehow fits again. It’s messy, it’s horny, it’s half-romance half shameless strip show, and the whole casino feels like it exists only so Lucio can surround himself with a mini harem of big tit redheads and other walking distractions while pretending it’s all about the cards.

The game drops you into this little romantic test lab where everything is shiny and wet at the same time, and for some reason that combo actually works. You’re a guy orbiting around this girl who looks like she’s been sculpted in a high-end porn studio, but the story keeps trying to pretend she’s just “a friend” or “someone important” or whatever. It feels like standing in a slow elevator with your crush while both of you pretend you’re staring at the floor number. Except here, the floor number has tits and a tongue and the camera really likes close-ups. It’s a kinetic thing, so you’re not doing the usual choice spam, you’re more like watching your own bad decisions play out in 3D. And because you can’t change anything, every time the guy hesitates before kissing her you kinda want to grab him by the neck and slam his face into hers. In a loving way. Mostly.

Sex-wise, the game goes straight for that “we know each other too well to be doing this, but we’re doing this anyway” vibe. Handjob in a place you really shouldn’t be getting one, like the camera is practically winking at you: yeah, someone could walk in, keep stroking. That whole exhibition angle is not over the top, just this light thrill, like when you’re sexting while sitting in a Zoom call and praying you don’t screen-share the wrong window. Then there’s the lesbian stuff which sneaks up on you, because one second the girl is “just curious” and five seconds later there’s tongue and moaning and someone’s fingers glistening under soft lighting. You’re stuck as the male protagonist watching two women get each other worked up and then somehow you’re allowed in, which is very generous of the universe. Oral, vaginal, hands, the usual porn logic progression, except the pacing is slower than I expected in a good way until suddenly it isn’t and scenes just cut a bit too fast like the game is shy about its own money shots. I kept wanting one more camera angle when she’s riding, just a tiny tilt, but no, it snaps away, like a cocktease editor got hired off TikTok.

Romance keeps trying to act like the main tag here, and it half wins. Some of the quiet moments are weirdly tender, like when she’s masturbating and you’re not even touching her, just watching, and the focus is on her face instead of her pussy for a few seconds longer than usual. That made me pause Spotify and just stare. Then two lines later she says something that sounds like a bad translation from a dating sim and I’m yanked right out again. The 3D models do a lot of heavy lifting; skin looks warm, tongues wet, nipples reacting to touch in a way that made me rewind a scene in VLC out of habit, even though it’s not a video file. And yeah, it’s obviously a proof of concept, you can feel the edges where the dev just went “eh, next build,” like that one shot where her handjob animation doesn’t match the thrust speed at all and my brain started calculating optimal stroke timing instead of enjoying the scene. I’m that freak who paused to think how many branching flags this would need if it wasn’t kinetic, and then immediately got distracted again when she sank down on him slowly, the camera hugging that angle where you see her back muscles and the way her ass hits his thighs. It’s kind of like watching someone test a love triangle strategy while only giving you one path: you can see all the temptations, the jealousy hooks, the exhibition curve, the lesbian route that could explode later, but here it’s all locked into this one horny, awkward, strangely sweet timeline that you just ride along with, whether you’d play it the same way or not.

Ash is a horny idiot in this one, and I mean that in a good way. The whole thing feels like someone took the old Pokémon anime, mixed it with a dumb meme thread from Reddit, then said “ok but what if it was all about fucking Sarena instead of catching anything.” You start as this slightly older Ash, already a trainer, already a bit cocky, but still dense as hell about romance. Sarena is glued to him, you can see she wants his dick from like the first scene, and he’s out here talking about training strategy while her skirt keeps riding higher. The game keeps playing with that contrast. One moment they’re arguing about which move is best for a gym fight, next scene she’s pressing him against a wall in some random Pokémon Center corridor and asking very clearly if he wants her. It sort of pretends to be wholesome romance for like one scene, and then the clothes just… vanish.

What caught me off guard is how the “puzzle” stuff is not really about brain work, it’s more like soft foreplay with extra steps. There’s one scene where you’re moving little icons around, matching types and moves, and the more correct chains you make, the more Sarena’s outfit changes. At first it’s just a jacket off, then stockings get ripped, then suddenly she’s in this insane lingerie that no normal trainer would wear outdoors. I actually got stuck on a really simple tile rotate thing because I was looking at her ass on the side panel, twitching every time the CG updated. It annoyed me so much because the rotation was like 90 degrees off and I kept misclicking, and the game never explains the rules properly, it just expects your horny brain to figure it out. Then, right after you finally solve it, the reward scene is Sarena pushing Ash down on the grass and riding him like he’s a mount, all while teasing him about being better at “other kinds of training.” That whole bit is ridiculously hot and also kind of stupid, in a good way. Or maybe not good, I’m not even sure.

Combat is there, but it’s basically foreplay with hit points. You pick moves, watch a short sequence, and the actual important part is that Sarena comments on how “worked up” he gets when he wins. There’s this one battle where if you choose a more reckless, high damage combo, Sarena later pins Ash to a tree and says she likes his aggressive side, then starts rubbing him through his pants while talking about strategy like nothing is happening. And if you play it safer in that same fight, she instead cuddles up in the tent afterward and slowly talks him into undressing, like a slow burn scene that suddenly turns filthy when she climbs on top and starts using her mouth first, then more. The game pretends your choices matter a lot, but actually the result is always Sarena getting fucked silly, only the route to reach that changes a bit. I loved that, and at the same time it made everything feel cheap, like “wow, my big moral choice just decides if she rides him facing forward or backward.” Still, when Ash finally grabs her hips and slams into her from behind while she’s half bent over her travel bag, moaning about how she doesn’t care about badges anymore, only him, I completely forgot I wanted something smarter from it. He is still a virgin idiot in some scenes, and somehow also a sex god in others, but whatever. It’s horny Pokémon parody brain, not science.
