Dirty little war story, that is what this feels like. You’re this guy, Hidu, ex-soldier, merc now, and the world doesn’t give a shit whether you survive or not. City is rotten from top to bottom, nobles throwing money and bodies around like it’s Tinder Gold, and under that there is this whole mess of beastfolk, horny cult types with horns everywhere, and a lot of asses that probably shouldn’t be as fuckable as they are. It reads like somebody mashed a grim fantasy novel with Pornhub search history and forgot to clean their browser after. Text hits you first, quite a lot of it, more like sexting with a crazy ex who also knows how to worldbuild. Then the illustrations pop in and you go “oh, ok, that fox girl actually has ridiculous tits” and you lose the thread of the political intrigue for a second.

Controls are simple, choices on the screen, you poke around like in a sandbox, only instead of Minecraft blocks you’re rearranging who gets tied up and who gets fucked. Sometimes you walk around the port, visit some shady bar, try to act like you care about missing enforcers, and suddenly you’re balls deep in a chained-up futa wolf who could probably break your spine if you slip the tongue wrong. There is this one scene in a warehouse, I swear, where I meant to just interrogate a captured spy. I picked the rough option, thinking “ok, light intimidation,” and five clicks later I’m slapping this curvy catgirl’s ass, collar around her throat, making her beg to take it in the ass too. The game lets you slide from “I’m a professional mercenary” to “I’m the daddy you hate to love” without really putting a line there. Felt a bit like when some guy in my cam chat tips extra and suddenly the roleplay gets darker than I planned, but I kinda enjoy it anyway.

I like that Hidu is not written as some awkward virgin fantasy loser. He knows what he wants, he can be a real bastard, but not always. You pick if you break someone or tease them, and sometimes the text hits this nice brutal honesty like, “yeah, he’s doing it because it turns him on, not because it’s noble.” Kind of refreshing. But then, once or twice, the game acts like you had some huge character arc and I was like, when? I just spent ten scenes railing a goat-horned futa in every hole she has and calling her my pet, don’t pretend I’m suddenly noble hero. And there is a tiny thing that annoyed me: the text boxes sometimes scroll at weird moments, cutting a sentence where I really wanted to sit with it, like right when it describes sliding into a tight ass or when she finally stops fighting the rope and melts. It’s small, but my brain fixates on that more than on who is killing all those enforcers. Plot is there, sure, war, gangs, some big storm coming, whatever. I kept getting distracted by whether the next scene would let me stuff both pussy and ass in the same chain of choices or if I had to pick. Also, furry stuff: if animal ears and tails make you wet, you’re going to be happy, the game doesn’t treat them as a joke. Some of these girls, and a couple of those futa “girls”, are absolute meat. Thighs like they could crush your skull, tits that probably break armor, and you topping them anyway, choking them out gently or not so gently, reading the lines and thinking “yeah, this writer has seen some dark Pornhub categories too.” And then out of nowhere, there is like three paragraphs about the city smell and the broken cobblestone and merc guild politics and I found myself skimming, then feeling guilty because actually it’s pretty decent, then immediately skipping again when the next anal scene appeared. I’m not proud. Actually I am. Whatever.

You’re the guy on the door of the last more-or-less holy place on earth, and it’s already not holy at all. Secret Refuge sounds like some serious religious bunker, but it feels more like a horny monastery run by people who forgot the original rules and just kept the guilt. Every day the gate buzzes, some fucked-up Outsider stands there telling you their sad story, and you decide: in, out, or “come back when I feel like abusing power.” The fun part is that this isn’t just moral choice button pressing. Your decisions drip into everything. Who you let in changes who walks the halls, who bends the knee, who ends up on their knees in your room while choir music leaks through the walls like a weird joke from the devs.

Inside the shelter, three big factions keep poking at you. There’s the fake-saint crowd trying to keep things “pure” while their nuns and virginal priestesses clearly have tits like heavy pillows and asses that don’t match their sermons. There’s a more practical, dirty group that doesn’t mind corruption at all, as long as you’re useful at the gate and in their beds. And then there’s the “intellectual” religious tech weirdos who built half the AI systems here and pretend they’re above lust, right until your hand is slowly groping under their robes in some candlelit corner and they’re mumbling prayers between moans. I like that the corruption is not just a meter. You see it in how their clothes shrink, how the teasing starts, how sleep sex suddenly becomes an option after a “blessing” ceremony where she drinks a bit too much, lies down in the common dorm, and you stand there staring, half-ashamed and hard as fuck. The game is very casual about male domination, like it’s just another resource to manage: food, faith, obedience, orgasms.

For an adult game, the sound caught me off guard. It’s not huge orchestral stuff, more like dirty little loops that sneak into your brain. Gentle ambient hum in the gate scene, then this soft, almost holy synth chord when you approve someone, but when you start harassing that busty acolyte in a storage room, the track adds this low, slow bass that feels like a heartbeat crawling into your spine. It’s weirdly sexy. Not “high budget sexy” either, there are these tiny glitches in volume, a loop that clicks on itself, and I actually like it. Reminds me of listening to lo-fi porn audio on VLC while another tab is open on a porn site you forgot to pause. The AI-generated CG fits that same vibe: sometimes the girls’ faces look a bit too perfect, or a hand is slightly off, but your brain patches it because the tits and asses are front and center and the animation in the right moments is smooth enough to make you forget you wanted to nitpick. There’s this scene where you catch a religious girl sneaking sweets from a forbidden stockpile, and instead of reporting her, you “punish” her by making her strip piece by piece, with you controlling the pace like a twisted rhythm game. The music stays calm, almost peaceful, while you grope her, make her stroke you, then push her down for slow vaginal sex on the cold floor; the mismatch between soft soundtrack and filthy movements hits way harder than some loud porn beat. The puzzle and management stuff are there, but half of the time you click your way through dialogue only to get back to that one girl you corrupted from shy believer to sleep toy, waiting in your bunk, snoring lightly, panties already sliding off because you trained her that way. Honestly, I wish the phone UI for the mobile browser version had slightly bigger buttons during one-handed moments, but that’s not going to change and maybe it shouldn’t. Makes every misclick feel like part of the mess you’re making, inside this supposed shelter and inside your own head.

Everything starts with you being thrown into this weird parallel wizard academy where things look like Harry Potter got drunk, hooked up with some cheap hentai artist and said “yeah, that’s fine.” The old beardy professor, Doubleroar, is gone, snatched by some edgy Dark Seakers, and the Higher Administration of Magic basically says: all *** students are on hold. Which means the campus is suddenly full of girls who are old enough, horny enough, bored enough, and you end up in the director’s chair with way too much power and not enough shame. The game does not rush, it just drops you into this semi-sandbox school where every corridor, tower and hidden room has at least one “oh fuck I shouldn’t be seeing this” moment. I spent like twenty minutes just abusing the voyeur system, peeking into dorms and showers, checking stats like a pervert accountant: “ok, she likes teasing, she likes girls, she hates public stuff, got it.” Then I’d trigger some magic event and suddenly I’m watching two students grind on each other on a couch, full scissoring loop, smooth 3D animation, panties pushed aside, one of them trying to be quiet and failing.

The best parts for me are when you abuse your role as director in a playful way. You call a girl to your office because “her grades are dropping” and five dialog options later she is giving you a lapdance on that ugly armchair that looks like it came from Ikea clearance, your hand on her ass, her tits almost slipping out of the uniform. If you focus your build on domination spells, things get even dirtier. You can cast this little obedience charm and suddenly she is kneeling between your legs, licking slowly, while giving you that half-pissed, half-aroused look that says “I hate that I like this.” Then later you meet the same girl in the courtyard with one of her female friends and they start teasing each other for who sucked you better. That small continuity made me laugh, because I realized the game actually tracks that route and I tested it with a spreadsheet on my second run. There are lesbian-focused paths too, where you barely touch them, just set up situations. I had one chain where I “punished” a girl by making her take dance lessons from a more experienced student. Ten minutes later they are in the club room, grinding, one lifting the other by the leg, deep tribbing on some old sofa, kissing and moaning while you are behind a curtain like a budget perv god. You can join them or just watch and collect a new unlockable animation for the gallery. Odd thing: sometimes the pacing is weird, you do three quests and the reward is just a little groping scene, then suddenly an optional side click opens a full-blown cunnilingus animation with magic glowing around their thighs that looks way better than the “main” story scene. The humor is also all over the place. One moment you read some stupid joke about magic paperwork, the next you are tongue deep in a student’s pussy in the library, her legs on your shoulders, books flying around because of a wild enchantment, and she is trying not to scream because other students are right behind the shelves. I liked that the MC can be a smug asshole or more playful, but either way he is clearly a pervert. This is not one of those fake wholesome titles. You bully, you tease, you control schedules so a girl “accidentally” ends up in detention with a known lesbian upperclassman who proceeds to sit on her face. The animated scenes are honestly the main thing. Breasts bounce, thighs press together, asses jiggle when you spank, tongues move when they lick each other, and the camera is not shy to go close. It is crude, sometimes a bit clunky, but it feels dirty in a good way, like a porn parody that knows exactly what it is. I spent way too long trying to find all the voyeur variants for the bathrooms just to see how many oral and fingering combos they hid there. For a game that pretends to be about magic academy management, it is really about watching and guiding a bunch of horny students into every combination of licking, sucking, scissoring, grinding, stripping and fucking you can statistically map. And I did map it. Twice.

The first time I booted this game, I thought it’d just be another lazy resort sim with some cheap fanservice. But then that first morning scene hit - sunlight leaking through the blinds, the air kind of heavy, and one of the staff leaning against the counter like they owned the place. The way they smirked while pretending to take your breakfast order? That’s when I realized it wasn’t trying to be subtle about anything. It’s messy in a way that feels intentional, like the devs knew players would pause just to stare at the little details: the half-buttoned shirt, the awkward silence before someone says something filthy but sweet. And maybe I’m projecting, but there’s a weird tenderness hiding beneath all the teasing. Not everyone will notice it, which makes it even better somehow.

I’ll admit, the sandbox part confused me at first. One minute you’re managing room upgrades, the next you’re being dragged into a “staff meeting” that turns into something else entirely. It’s funny how the game pretends to care about finances when all you really want is to see who breaks character first. The dialogue sometimes feels like it was written by someone drunk on their own fantasies - but that’s part of the charm. There’s this one event where you’re supposed to discipline an employee for slacking off, and instead it spirals into a slow, deliberate exchange that’s equal parts punishment and confession. I hated how long it took to trigger that scene, then immediately replayed it twice. The art’s inconsistent, sure, but when the lighting hits right during those late-night sequences, it’s almost too intimate. Like you shouldn’t be watching, but you can’t look away.

And yeah, maybe the pacing drags when you’re grinding for upgrades, but then again, the quiet moments between chaos feel like catching your breath after a kiss that went too far. It’s not perfect. It’s not even pretending to be. But it’s got that strange pulse - half-romance, half-bad-decision - that keeps looping in your head long after the screen fades black.
