So there's this floating resort game that caught my attention because... well, honestly the premise sounded ridiculous at first. You're managing some kind of luxury sex island called Kamogawa, and yeah it's exactly what it sounds like. The whole setup reminds me of those harem anime where the protagonist somehow ends up surrounded by gorgeous women, except here you're actually running the damn place. Started playing expecting some basic visual novel stuff but got way more invested than I should've been. The day/night cycle thing actually matters - different girls show up at different times, events change, and you're constantly juggling who to spend time with. Found myself checking the clock way too often because missing certain evening events with the MILF characters feels like a genuine loss.

Management aspect is surprisingly deep though sometimes the upgrade system feels clunky. You're buying gifts, improving facilities, hiring staff - it's like playing SimCity but everyone's horny and the buildings are love hotels. The map exploration keeps things interesting because there's always some hidden spot with new content. Jessie's mansion storyline hit different though, that whole reconnecting with old flames thing... fuck, the nostalgia factor really works. Some of the animated scenes are genuinely well done, especially the footjob sequences which - okay why am I spending so much time talking about feet? Point is, the quality varies but when it hits, it really hits. The BDSM content isn't hardcore but there's enough teasing and power play to keep things spicy.

What bugs me is how the mobile interface can be finicky during the more... interactive moments. Also wish there were more varied body types because everyone's got massive tits and asses, which look great but where's the variety? The Spanish language option is random but whatever. No NTR though, which some people will appreciate - your harem stays loyal. Combat system is basically nonexistent despite the RPG tag, but honestly who cares when you're getting handjobs on tropical beaches?

Temptation’s Ballad feels like someone took a horny D&D session, removed the shy players, pumped the bard full of slutty energy and then forgot to write a safe word. You start in this medieval fantasy city that pretends to be serious with demons and noble houses and gods and whatever, but the game is very honest about what actually matters: who you’re going to fuck, how badly you’re going to mess up your party’s reputation, and how much property damage your dick (or tits) indirectly causes. It calls itself “fairly linear” but it doesn’t feel stiff. More like a drunk march in one direction where you keep getting distracted by a hot ass in the alley, some half‑clothed monster girl in a tavern, or a noble milf who really needs “help” with her magic circle. One moment you’re trying to act like a real hero, the next you’re getting your face sat on by a smug futa demon who treats you like her favorite chew toy. The story leans on the classic trio of idiots party setup: disaster gay, smug bastard, and something in between that definitely should not be trusted around potions. Their banter is half the fun, because they talk like actual horny people who overshare, tease, flirt too hard, then pretend it was “just a joke” while obviously staring at each other’s bulges. There’s real romance in there, surprisingly soft sometimes, and the game just throws it next to scenes where someone is getting spanked in a backroom while a voyeur peeks through the cracks. It shouldn’t work together, but it does, like putting lube on holy water.

The erotic tone is really on that line between silly and nasty. You get all the classic stuff: sloppy oral, tits used like they’re religious objects, thick cocks that clearly don’t follow standard fantasy anatomy rules, creampies that would absolutely require healing spells after. The city of Axia feels like a sandbox for kinks, even if the main plot is straight like an arrow. You’ll walk into a side scene thinking “okay, just dialogue” and suddenly there is a dommy knight stepping on someone’s chest, or a monster girl wrapping a tail around a guy’s throat while riding him. There’s casual interracial stuff, big black cock jokes thrown in like shitposts, and netorare tension playing in the background when someone’s crush gets a little too cozy with a rival. The game never stops to politely explain corruption or cheating either, it just lets you sit there with that ugly horny feeling in your chest while a character moans another person’s name. Sometimes the pacing is a mess and a really nice emotional beat gets bulldozed by a sex scene with way too much groping and not enough build up, like the writer was afraid to let you breathe. I kinda hate that. I also kinda love it. The soundtrack is the quiet hero here, by the way. Fantasy tavern strings and flutes that slide into slow, bass‑heavy, low‑tempo tracks when clothes start coming off, the kind of music that makes you turn down your volume on Discord because you know exactly what you’re doing. There’s even this one track that loops during a teasing scene where a character keeps grinding on your lap but “won’t let you cum yet” and the rhythm matches the fucking text speed. That little sync made me laugh and then immediately shut up because it actually turned me on. It’s not a classy game. It doesn’t want to be. It’s messy, loud, horny, too obsessed with big boobs and bigger problems, and Axia feels like a place where every summer vacation ends with someone pregnant, corrupted, or tied to a bed. Dare to play it alone, or invite company?

Sam’s summer doesn’t start with explosions or some anime bullshit prophecy. It starts with him jerking off quietly in a cramped bathroom, hoping his mom doesn’t knock, while thinking about his own best friend in a way he definitely shouldn’t. That’s the vibe here. Ordinary high school, humid Asian heat, everybody sweating in their uniforms, and underneath it all everybody is horny, frustrated, and pretending to be “normal”. The game leans hard into that slow burn feeling where every stare in the hallway and every accidental touch feels like it could cross a line. One moment you’re helping Angela with homework, the next you’re watching her skirt ride up as she stretches on the bed and wondering if you should look away or look closer. You usually don’t look away.

There’s a lot of teasing and it’s not gentle. The bullies at school are assholes, they push Sam around, grope the girls when they think they can get away with it, and the game doesn’t try to moralize. Sometimes you interrupt, sometimes you don’t, and sometimes you pretend you didn’t see a hand slip under a blouse because the situation turns you on and you hate yourself for that. The nicest thing is that the characters actually feel like horny idiots instead of porn robots. Sam’s mom, Riona, walks around the apartment in these thin summer clothes that cling to her body, pretending she’s just “too hot” from the weather, and the camera knows exactly when to linger on her ass or the outline of her nipples. She acts like a normal caring mother, cooks, nags you a bit, then sits too close on the couch and you notice her breathing change when your leg touches hers. The game loves that “is this still innocent or not?” line and keeps poking it. It gets pretty fucked when the bullying brothers start eyeing her and your sister too, and the story quietly asks if you’re going to protect them or secretly want to watch things fall apart. Sometimes protecting them means watching something you can’t unsee. Sometimes not protecting them is even worse.

The sex itself ramps up from clumsy masturbation scenes to full-on sweaty summer nights. There’s that first time you manage to sneak into Angela’s room during a storm, lightning outside, her in a loose shirt with no bra, pretending she’s scared only of the thunder. You feel her thighs tense as your hand slides higher, she bites her lip, and everything feels messy and way too real. Vaginal scenes are shot very close, like you’re right there feeling every movement, and the game loves when someone might walk in at any second. The best part is also the most annoying: you get choices that look small, like peeking at Juno while she changes, or letting Riona drink a bit more wine than she should, and ten scenes later you realize those little “just this once” moments pushed everyone down a darker, more corrupt path. And then there’s that one tiny detail that stuck with me: the way Angela’s face shifts when she realizes you’re turned on by her humiliation in front of the bullies. She blushes, looks away, but her legs don’t move. It’s fucked up and hot and uncomfortable at the same time, which is exactly what this game is chasing, like a slow, sticky summer you kind of wish would never end and also kinda hope would.

Summer in this thing feels sticky in the best and worst way. You can almost smell the salt from the sea and that weird countryside mix of boredom and heavy air, where nothing happens and then suddenly everything happens at once. You start out thinking it’s going to be this cute little romantic break for Izumi and Sophia, school year behind them, sun on the skin, that first night sex where both are still a bit wound up from exams. Her riding him with that fake innocent look that doesn’t really hide how much she likes it, tongue out, eyes rolled when he finally gives in. It feels normal. Comfortable. You almost fall for the idea that this is a straight summer love story, like some harmless anime you keep on in another tab while you scroll Twitter. But then the father shows up. Kuroda doesn’t rush anything, which is what makes it nasty in a good way. He’s older, moves slow, watches more than he talks. The game lets you sit in that, in those lazy scenes where nothing explicit is happening and still you feel like you’re watching the first crack in a glass. Sophia in light clothes that cling a bit too much from the heat. No bra in the hallway. That one scene where she bends to pick up a dropped towel and he’s just standing there behind her, not saying a word. It feels almost like you should look away and of course you don’t.

What I liked is how it keeps pretending everyone is still “respecting” the relationship while constantly shoving small betrayals in your face. Like that barbecue evening where Izumi gets a little drunk and brags about how wild Sophia can be in bed, like an idiot, laughing, not getting that his own words are giving his father ideas. Later, in the kitchen, she’s blushing about it, and you see Kuroda’s hand linger on her lower back just a bit too long. The game really enjoys turning Sophia into this sweet girl who slowly starts testing how far she can go without being caught. No instant switch to slut mode. It’s more fun than that. A shared smoke outside, his rough fingers brushing ash from her lips. That awkward scene in the tiny country bathroom, her pressing her thighs together because she “needs to pee” but it’s obvious she’s actually remembering his eyes on her earlier. And yeah, there is this messed up thrill when the old guy finally gets more than just stolen glances. The first time he touches her properly, it’s not even full on sex, just his hand slipping under her shorts on that little countryside road where crickets are screaming and Izumi is literally twenty meters away checking something on his phone. She bites her lip, looks like she might scream or call him, but she doesn’t. Of course she doesn’t. And later, when she’s back in bed with Izumi, the way she rides him starts to change. Hips looser, face more open, like she’s replaying something else in her head while moaning his name. The game is cruel like that. It lets you see a sweet summer couple get slowly eaten alive from inside, replaced by this filthy secret thing between a girl and the man who should be the safest person around her. And what really got me? There is one scene on the beach, at sunset, when she sits between them, the younger and the older, and you can’t unsee that the way she leans into Kuroda’s shoulder is just a tiny bit deeper than it should be, her thighs pressed together because she knows exactly what they did in the house earlier that day, with the windows half open, cicadas yelling, his thick cock stretching her in a way Izumi never quite did, leaving her walking different, acting the same, lying straight to his face with a soft little smile.
