RuleUniverse feels like someone mashed Dragon Ball fanfiction, horny Twitter art and a half-finished Ren’Py project, then accidentally made it kind of addictive. You start as this lonely overachiever kid that reads like every shonen protagonist in history, then a demon scientist pops up and says, “hey, let’s stuff your body with DNA from the strongest fighters in the universe, what could go wrong.” It’s delightfully stupid in that fanfic way, but precisely because of that, it works. The game knows it’s a parody, it doesn’t try to pretend it’s “deep”, and then it suddenly throws in a line about destiny or guiding the universe and you’re like… alright, Toriyama-with-horny-mods, calm down.

The real fun is how transparently it worships its women. Bulma, Chi-Chi, Android 18, that whole legendary boob-and-ass pantheon is here, clearly shaped by someone who grew up pausing VHS at the worst places. The models are 3D and exaggerated as hell: huge tits, fat asses, those shiny anime lips that just scream “she’s going to suck him off in like two clicks.” Animated scenes actually move, not just two stiff characters rubbing like broken Sims; you get thrusting, jiggling, drool, that soft spit string when you pull out from a blowjob, all the little pervy details that tell you the dev really wanted this for themselves first. One moment you’re doing basic combat with ki blasts and energy auras, the next you’re balls-deep in Bulma in a lab, with wires and science junk in the background like that somehow makes it ethical. And the combat’s funny: it pretends to be serious, but all you’re thinking is “okay, how many fights until I unlock the next sex scene with Android 18.” Sometimes the sandbox part feels less like a “world” and more like a small playground with a fence around it, but the loops of walking around, clicking, triggering small events, slowly unlocking more lewd stuff… it scratched that same spot as old flash games I used to sneak at school on shitty browsers.

I kinda love how messy it is. The romance tries to act sentimental for a second, then five lines later you’re face-fucking a milf with magic powers while she moans like someone recorded it in a bathroom on a cheap mic. Dialog swings from “I will guide the universe” to “fuck me harder” without the slightest shame. Exploration is simple, a little repetitive, but I still kept wandering, poking every corner hoping there’s a hidden event where Chi-Chi finally snaps and rides the protagonist like he’s the last Saiyan on earth. Some text sounds like it was written at midnight by a dude half-remembering DBZ arcs from YouTube AMVs, which, honestly, is the right energy. I do wish the world reacted more to what you do, like if you bang Bulma enough, Vegeta starts showing up mad or something, but I know that kind of feature is exactly the thing that stays in the dev’s “maybe later” notes forever. Still, when you’re watching Android 18 slowly drop to her knees after you save her in a fight and she rewards you with this sloppy, animated blowjob, with her tits barely contained and that quiet smug smile when she swallows, it hits the trashy, horny, teen-power-fantasy nerve in a very specific way. It’s not elegant. It’s not smart. It’s like a wet doujin turned half-game, half-daydream, and somehow that’s exactly why it sticks.

Starship discipline is completely fucked here, in the funniest, dirtiest way possible. You get handed the captain’s chair on the Cerritos, but it feels more like they dumped you in a floating frat house filled with horny degenerates in Starfleet colors. Everyone is used to Admiral Freeman looking the other way, so when you start trying to clean things up, the crew basically tells you to suck it. Half the time you’re walking down a corridor and some ensign has their uniform half open, covered in cum, trying to hide a hard-on or wiping drool off their lips after “checking the sonic shower.” The ship looks like Star Trek, but the mood is more like a super trashy porn parody where nobody remembered the part about “professional behavior.” And you are absolutely encouraged to abuse that.

The center of the chaos is Beckett Mariner, of course. She knows you can’t just throw the admiral’s daughter out an airlock, so she tests every limit she can. One moment she’s lounging in your chair with her boots on the console, tits almost spilling out of her uniform jacket, fake-innocent face and those stupid ahegao eyes when you finally snap and drag her into the ready room. The game really likes that shift from “smartass brat” to “corrupted little cumtoy,” especially when you start using blackmail. You catch her in compromising spots, collect dirty data, and then slowly push things from “get on your knees and swallow” to “bend over the tactical console, I want to see just how tight that ass is.” She resists in that playful way at first, talks back, but the art leans heavy into humiliation: tears in the corners of her eyes, tongue out, mascara a mess, expression halfway between hating you and begging you to creampie her again. The AI-style CG is weirdly perfect for this kind of parody, everything slightly exaggerated, breasts too big for regulation uniforms, cumshots overdramatic, but it fits the whole “cheap bootleg holodeck program” vibe. And it is animated, so you really sit there watching her get filled, milk leaking, mouth drooling, your choices affecting if she ends up more broken-in, covered in bukkake like a used toy, or still pretending she’s in control while she rides you and moans your rank.

What caught me off guard is how the game doesn’t just stop at “straight captain dominates bratty officer.” Lower deck kids and random crew open up way dirtier routes. You walk into the cargo bay and spot two male ensigns “wrestling,” cocks out, one already dripping. That can spiral into you forcing them to service you as punishment, lining them up and choosing who takes you in the ass, who licks your balls clean, who drinks the load. There is gay stuff that doesn’t feel like an afterthought, more like the ship is just completely horny and nobody cares about orientation anymore. Then there is the whole trap and futa angle, uniforms hiding surprise dicks, big tits paired with a throbbing cock that strains the Starfleet fabric. One minute you think you’re punishing a cute, shy communications officer, next moment she drops her pants and you’re staring at a hard shaft and a wet slit both, and the game just goes “yeah, use all of it.” You can force them to suck you, fuck them until their own cum sprays on the control panel, or take it yourself if you lean into being a greedy captain who wants every hole filled. There are scenes where you make an officer pump milk out of her huge tits right onto the floor while everyone watches, or you order a line of crew to kneel and finish them off one by one, covering faces and mouths until they look like someone set a bukkake filter over a still from Lower Decks. Then there are cheating bits, too: married officers getting reamed in your quarters, whispering that their partner doesn’t touch them like this, while you record everything for later blackmail. It’s unapologetically trashy, sometimes mean, and occasionally so over the top you just start laughing, but it keeps that Star Trek parody flavor through all the corruption, like a filthy holodeck program somebody forgot to lock with a command code.

This one starts like some epic fairy tale your grandma would censor with a black marker, then just falls face first into filth in the nicest way. You’re this classic heroic dude with a sword, a job from the king, plague on the land, cursed forest, all that fantasy poster stuff. And on your arm, there’s Vallabelle, your elf wife, all holy robes and huge tits and that kind of ass that makes armor look illegal. She is written like this sweet, loyal priestess who’d probably heal your paper cut and apologize to the cut. And that’s exactly why the whole corruption thing hits harder. The game doesn’t rush into the porn right away. It does that slow boil where you’re walking through traps, monsters, ruins, and you can feel the forest looking at her more than at you. Long shots on her thigh when she climbs, her robes riding up, camera hanging just a bit too low when she bends to heal somebody. At first it feels like normal fanservice and you’re like “ok sure, jiggle physics.” Then you notice where the camera always is when she casts spells. Below. Always below.

Since it’s a straight kinetic story, there’s no pretending you’re in control. No choices, no branches, no magic button to “save Vallabelle.” You just click, watch, and slowly realize this quest is way more about her body than the stupid cure. You get these small scenes where she clings to you after a fight, shaking with fear, and your guy is trying to stay noble while the game already set her up as the perfect target. Big tits squeezed into that priest dress, hips that don’t know the meaning of modesty, shy smile that says “no” while the plot has already decided “yes, but later and with tentacles.” The pacing loves teasing. She gets groped by “accident” when a monster grabs her from behind, hands everywhere, her moans halfway between pain and very obvious something else. A so-called healing ritual where some shady old altar needs “physical contact” and she’s stroking, sucking, taking it like it’s all for the greater good. Your hero tells himself it’s just magic. The forest laughs.

The NTR flavor comes in quiet first. A hand that stays on her ass too long. A shot of her lips after she wipes off someone else’s cum and pretends it was part of the ceremony. You catch glimpses through bushes, like full on voyeur scenes where your character is “resting” while she goes to check something and you get these frames of her surrounded. Tentacles curling around her legs, sliding under the robe, smacking against that thick elf butt while she whimpers and still prays, because of course she does. There’s handjobs where she’s clearly trying to be “selfless” and ends up jerking off something non-human, eyes glazed, saying she only did it to protect you. Then later, oral scenes with her on her knees for someone else, drool and cum all over that pretty priest face, and the narration plays it like she’s sacrificing herself, but the blush and body language tell another story. Vaginal scenes go from “forced” to disturbingly eager, her grabbing hips, begging for more, clinging to monsters or other men with the same hands she used to hold yours. Spanking comes in as “punishment” or training, except every smack makes her ass jiggle and the camera practically worships it. She starts to arch into it, moaning too loud, and you just sit there like an idiot clicking forward, fully aware you’re not the main character anymore. The forest is. By the time she’s cheating in broad daylight, grinding that big ass down on someone else’s cock, talking about how it helps the mission, you already knew this was coming. You still feel that little stab when she looks back at you from the CG, eyes half guilty, half fucked stupid, like she remembers you just enough to hurt. And yeah, I got mad at one tiny thing: her hair clip keeps clipping through her ear in one scene and it pulled me out of the moment for two seconds. Then the tentacle went in and my brain forgot the complaint.

New city, tiny apartment, couple that still fucks like rabbits and argues about who forgot to buy toilet paper. That’s basically the vibe here, and it works way better than it sounds. You bounce between her side and his side of the story, watching them drag their boxes into this new life and then immediately get distracted by how horny they are. One moment she’s pretending to unpack, bending over way too slow, panties peeking, just begging for a quick spanking on the kitchen counter. Next moment you’re on his POV, walking up behind her, hand on her ass, and the game just lets you linger on that tease before anything really happens. It keeps doing that: little pauses, small choices, like “kiss her neck” or “just grab her tits already,” that actually tilt the mood. Pick the softer, romantic options and you get these lazy, drawn-out scenes where she’s riding him, boobs bouncing in his face, eyes rolling back with that stupidly hot ahegao look while she tries to say something sweet and just ends up moaning. Go a bit rougher and it flips, she’s the one clawing his back, begging for him to stay in and fill her up, panting about how no condom feels better while your mouse is hovering between “pull out” and “fuck it, creampie.”

What I liked most is how the sexy stuff doesn’t feel like separate levels. You’re literally pointing and clicking around their daily crap: checking messages, clicking on a coffee mug, opening some random drawer, and suddenly you’ve triggered a flirty scene that spirals. You click on the couch because “whatever, next scene,” and bam, she’s straddling him, messy blowjob between jokes, spit on his shaft, she laughs with her mouth full and looks up with those huge eyes like “you like that, city boy?” Then later you see the same moment from her head, nervous about neighbors hearing, but still pushing his cock deeper because she wants to feel it hitting the back of her throat. The game has that weird talent of making their fights kinda hot too. They snap at each other about money or his new coworkers, then some stupid little choice like “apologize” or “double down and tease” can twist it into angry sex. There’s a scene where she storms off to the bedroom, slams the door, you follow, and it turns into her getting pinned to the mattress, cheeks going red from slaps on her ass, legs spread wide while she’s whining that they’re not done talking, even as she’s begging him to stay inside when he’s close. It’s messy, it’s romantic, it’s funny in spots, and sometimes it feels too real when they’re awkward after a hard fuck and don’t know if they went too far or not. The art looks like an AI tried really hard to be horny and kinda pulled it off, which somehow fits the whole “fresh start in a city that doesn’t care about you” theme. Nothing feels perfectly polished, but their chemistry, from slow teasing to deep, wet penetration shots and those “oh shit I actually came” faces, sells the fantasy hard enough that you’ll probably forget you were supposed to be exploring Birchfall and not just their bodies.

Guy wakes up in a house full of walking trouble: a stacked “aunt” who definitely doesn’t act like an aunt, a pair of twins that share way too much, and everyone keeps pretending this is a normal family situation. It almost feels wholesome for like five minutes. Breakfast, small talk, a bit of school drama, some chores. Then the day snaps back like a broken save file and you are right back in your bedroom with the same morning wood, the same moves to repeat, and suddenly every tiny choice you make starts looking like the setup for something filthy. You see how your “sister” bends over when she cleans, how the milf leans down when she checks your homework, how one twin bites her lip when you sit too close during some shitty TV show. At first you just click around like a normal point and click nerd, but slowly the game trains you to look at every object, every door crack, as potential voyeur moment.

The loop gives you permission to be bold. Mess up a date at school? Who cares, it resets. Touch her thigh during a movie, get slapped, reload. Next time you wait until she is sleepy and her head is on your shoulder, and the hand just “stays there” a little longer. You walk into the bathroom “by accident” more often, catch big tits bouncing in the shower, watch her finger herself and do nothing, then reload and decide this time you knock, play the sweet guy, and later ask for “help” with your own frustration. It goes from shy handjob under the blanket to her tits squeezed tight around your cock while she whispers that it is wrong, but her mouth says something completely different. The school side of it is like a playground too: bored classmates who turn into dates, blowjob in some empty room, the classic romance path that somehow still ends with anal on a desk right next to homework notes. You flirt, fail, redo, and suddenly you are juggling a jealous girl from class, a hungry milf at home, and twins that keep asking if you like one of them more.

And the game is dirty in all the ways you secretly expect from this kind of setting but still grin when it actually goes there. You can stand by the bedroom door at night and watch someone masturbate, just breathing quietly while 3DCG thighs rub together, toys slide in, her voice doing that little half-cry moan that sounds too real. Or you say screw it and slip under the blanket when she is half asleep, let your hands wander her body while she mumbles your name and pretends to stay unconscious. Feet on your cock one loop, her ass pressed against you “by accident” the next, then she shows up in some half-assed cosplay outfit you hinted at during a previous run and suddenly you are fucking her in stockings, cum all over that ridiculous costume. Vaginal, anal, titfuck, messy blowjob where she chokes and keeps going, twins sandwiching you like some porn hub fever dream; the loop means you can be the soft romantic guy one day and a selfish, cheating bastard the next, testing how far ntr vibes and secret hookups can push this fake family until everything is twisted. It is trashy, horny, kind of sweet in weird moments, and you will probably tell yourself “one more loop” while opening the same bedroom door again just to see who is touching themselves this time.

You start as this kinda ordinary dude who finally crawled out of small town life, first house, first “real” job as programmer, all that normal boring adult stuff. The game doesn’t pretend you’re some alpha porn god. You’re just a guy who got lucky with a gorgeous wife who looks like she walked out of an Instagram explore page: soft face, big tits that don’t even try to hide under clothes, ass that steals whole scenes, the kind where camera just starts orbiting her every time she bends a little. And the crazy part is, at the beginning it all feels so normal that your brain goes “ok, maybe this is just a chill romance thing”, even if you know damn well the tags on the page were screaming at you.

She’s starting her new job as a model and the way they handle that is actually kind of evil in a good way. It doesn’t hit you with hardcore stuff right away. You get these small things: her excited messages about shoots, little photos she sends you that are still kinda modest but not really, how her outfits get tighter, shorter, more “for the camera” than for real life. It’s that slow teasing, like she stands in front of you in these shorts that hug her big ass and she’s asking “how do I look?” and the game gives you options that feel useless, because whatever you say, she still goes out with that look in her eyes. There’s this one scene where she comes home smelling like a guy’s cologne you don’t use, and I felt that stupid drop in stomach like in real life when something is off, but the MC acts half in denial, half horny. That part is fucked up in a way I liked too much.

Sex scenes with her start pretty tender, like couple who still really love each other. Missionary, you touching her tits with that little hand animation, her riding you on the couch while she pretends nothing strange is happening at work. But then she lets tiny slips out. She says some phrase she clearly heard from someone else. She moves her hips different. She moans louder when you grab her ass in a way you never did before. Later there are scenes where she is on camera, and you as player are basically forced to watch. Not participation, just watching your own wife get handled, groped, her tits grabbed like they belong to the lens, not to you. The dev really likes using the camera as this third character, like you, her, and then the cold eye of the lens, recording her cheating while you sit there trying not to click “next” too fast.

What hits hardest is how the guys she works with are not cartoon villains. They’re just bigger, darker, more confident than you, treating her body like open territory. Interracial stuff just shows up like “yeah, this is happening now, deal with it”. One moment she’s telling you it’s only fashion, next moment you see her on some preview screen straddling this dude, his big hands around her waist, and you can clearly see the way her huge ass bounces on him is not acting. The game keeps humiliating you without big speeches. You get a message notification, you open it, it’s her on set, topless, laughing while some guy grabs her boobs from behind, and you can’t do anything. Sometimes you still get handjob scenes with her later, like she’s trying to comfort you with lazy strokes while clearly thinking about other stuff. That made me more annoyed than the full cheating, honestly. And it really pissed me that the MC keeps saying he trusts her, even when there’s literally sex on camera of her getting pounded. I hated him. I was him. I kept clicking anyway.

Grace waking up with a blank month in her head sounds kinda basic at first, but this thing leans into that “what the hell did I do?” vibe in a very horny way. It is like checking your old phone gallery after a drunk weekend, except every folder you open is another step toward finding out you were a total degenerate and also kind of loving it. You’re not running around or doing fancy combos, you’re just clicking through rooms, screens, phones, little icons, but every click feels like peeling clothes off her memory. Sometimes you hit a dead end and there’s nothing there except a lame hint, then suddenly one tiny clickable detail opens a video where Grace is on her knees, mascara messy, tits out, going down on some dude like she’s been doing it her whole life. And then she looks right at the camera, like she’s looking at you across time. That hit me harder than it should. Maybe because I was on Discord in another window pretending to answer work messages while actually edging to a save file named “folder_03_final_FINAL2”.

The 2D art sells her body really hard. She has that thick build that gacha devs keep putting on SSR units just to make people like me poor. Big soft chest that bounces even in stills because your brain fills the motion in, ass that takes half the screen in some angles, and every time you unlock a new pose it feels like pulling a rare. Sometimes the angle is awkward and you see too much of a shoulder or some weird line, but I still clicked back into the scene three times to see her riding guy’s cock, panties pushed aside, then sliding off with this lazy smile and cum dripping out. There’s a lot of focus on hands too, which surprised me. Like she’s stroking herself while watching one of her own videos, fingers shiny, thighs pressed together, and the camera just sits there on her hand doing slow circles around her pussy. Not even trying to be subtle. Meanwhile I’m there, one hand on mouse, one hand on my own dick, telling myself “just one more scene” like some broken mobile game addict. The oral shots get really filthy when she’s choking around the tip, spit strings everywhere, and I swear the first time she swallowed and then wiped her mouth with the back of her hand I actually paused and laughed because I’d just seen that exact thing in a random TikTok thirst trap. Then I unpaused and went right back to it.

What really messed with me was how the story and the porn sort of gaslight you. At first you feel like you’re helping this poor girl figure out who messed with her, checking mails, clicking little text logs, going through her PC like an amateur hacker. Then you start unlocking more of those clips with her spreading herself, playing with her clit on cam, doing slow handjobs and whispering shit like “I can’t believe this is me” while moaning way too much for someone who is supposedly shocked. I caught myself thinking “she’s a victim, I should feel bad” while my brain is just “ok but show the creampie again”. There’s one scene where she has her legs over his shoulders and he just keeps pounding, skin slapping loud, and she’s begging him not to cum inside, then you see his cock twitch and the white stuff fills her up anyway. And then later you see Grace, present-time Grace, staring at that same video, hand between her thighs, breathing heavy, pretending she’s grossed out while clearly rubbing herself harder. That’s where I realized the game is not trying to be moral, it just wants you to enjoy this girl slowly admitting she’s into all of it. I could complain about how sometimes you click around too long before getting another good sexual scene and it kills the momentum, but honestly I was already invested, like an idiot rolling gacha for another limited costume. If you want to really squeeze the juice out of it, don’t rush. Sit with each unlocked video, replay from different dialogue choices, watch how her reactions shift from confusion to “fuck it, this turns me on” and let yourself sink into that same shame spiral. It hits harder when you let the build up drag and you’re just there, alone with your browser and a girl on screen who forgot a month of her life and apparently spent all of it fucking and touching herself for the camera.

Thief of Hearts feels like someone mashed together a heist movie and one of those horny late night VN titles you only admit playing on alt account. You start as this young guy who is way too calm about doing crime, sneaking around a flashy city that pretends to be clean while you basically fuck your way through all its dirty corners. The whole thing is built around planning robberies and at the same time slowly corrupting, teasing or straight up seducing people who should absolutely call the cops on you, but instead end up with your cock in their mouth. One moment you are checking security cameras, the next you are pressing a stacked woman against a school hallway wall, palming her huge tits while she tries to keep her voice down so no one hears how hard she is breathing. It has that vibe of “I know this is wrong, but I also really want to see what happens if I click the pervy option again.”

The school setting is used as a comfortable home base and also as a hunting ground. You get this fun contrast of doing serious planning with your crew and then walking into class to watch a shy girl pretend she does not see you checking her big ass every time she bends over her desk. There is animated stuff in the sex scenes, so when you finally push things too far, you actually see bodies move, asses bounce, lips wrap around your shaft. First time the game let me secretly watch two characters going at it in a locker room, I just sat there with that dumb grin like “ah, ok, we are doing voyeurism properly.” You can jerk off while spying on them, or wait and use what you saw to blackmail them later. It is fucked up, but also kind of hot how the story keeps mixing moral choice with “do you want to cum again?” The family angle sits right in that line too: you come home from a job and there is this milf relative in tight clothes, huge tits barely staying inside, bending to clean something and you get a dialogue option that is clearly not what a normal person should pick. You go from “innocent” hugs to fingers sliding under her clothes, to her on your lap, grinding slowly while pretending this is still just “comfort.” The game treats incest like another forbidden treasure to steal, not some big dramatic plot. It just quietly escalates until you are fucking her hard on the couch with her moaning your name and trying not to say the word that actually defines your relation.

Sex variety is solid and also a bit rude in a good way. There is teasing everywhere. Characters lean over your desk so their cleavage fills the whole screen, or “accidentally” press their ass on your crotch in a crowded bus, and you can either act cool or start groping, slipping your hand under skirts or inside tight jeans. Group scenes show up once your little team of specialists stops being just professionals and starts acting like horny thieves who celebrate every successful job with bodies instead of champagne. At one point I had two girls on their knees, taking turns with a messy blowjob while another sat on my face, grinding and losing control. Handjobs happen casually, like someone helping you “relax before the mission,” and then they suddenly pull your pants down and slide you inside, turning it into full on vaginal sex without much warning. There is stripping where a character starts just teasing, slowly removing clothes while you pick how rough or gentle you talk to her, and if you push the right buttons she ends up naked on the table, legs open, fingers working her clit while you watch, before you finally move in. The game pretends to care if you are a lone wolf or team player, but honestly I kept picking whatever choice looked like it would give more skin. It still somehow feels like a real heist story though, with tension and backstabbing and all that, only in this version everyone has a big ass, big tits, and half the important conversations end with somebody cumming.

Moonlight throws you into this dirty, glossy future where everyone pretends they’re happy because their brain is on a leash. Neural implants drip little shots of pleasure in your head while an app rents out your meat-suit to whatever corpo wants a warm body. It sounds ridiculous but it feels… too close. You’re this burnt-out detective with more regrets than friends, poking around a death that smells like murder but is written up as “unfortunate malfunction”. Classic. Except here the corpse has an implant history that doesn’t add up, a porn subscription tied to a dead identity, and an ex who cries like she’s rehearsed but still clutches his jacket like a real widow. The game keeps you in that sweet spot where you’re never sure if people are lying or if the tech is lying for them. Also there is so much teasing it’s almost rude. One moment you’re going through encrypted chat logs, next moment a milf corporate handler is leaning over your shoulder, blouse half open, casually asking whether you’ve ever tried orgasm lock with a neural override. The flirting keeps cutting through the bleakness in a way that feels very queer to me, like everyone is using horniness as armor. I relate too much probably.

Sex scenes don’t come flying at you every two clicks, they crawl up slowly, like bad decisions at a bar. You talk, you joke, you push someone too hard in an interrogation, they push back, things snap. I had one scene where I was questioning this older lab tech, soft belly, tired eyes, very “I have seen some shit”. We start arguing about consent when your body is on remote control, and suddenly she’s grabbing the collar of your coat, pressing you against a sterile glass wall, telling you she wants to feel a real tongue, not a programmed rhythm. The game lets you decide if you go down on her right there among the humming machines while security cameras pretend to sleep, or if you pull away and keep playing the noble asshole. The animation sells it in a very unpolished way; sometimes the lips clip a bit or the angles look too porn-hub, but honestly it kind of fits. It feels like underground smut recorded in a shitty rented apartment, not some corpo-funded sex sim. There’s blood too, real rough stuff. One route turned into a total mess when the guy I was tailing got his implant fried right in front of me, smoke out of his nose, body twitching on the ground while my character is still half hard from a blowjob in the alley five minutes before. It’s uncomfortable and hot and confusing, and the writing never stops to hold your hand and tell you how to feel. Queer vibe shows up more in the edges than in labels: guys checking you out in clubs, women in sharp suits who don’t care what’s in your pants as long as you can keep up, trauma and desire tangled together. Some romance paths clearly want you to think they’re soft and wholesome, then they will turn around and ask you to choke them while they’re jacked into a virtual beach. And I swear the text messages you get on your in-game phone remind me of my ex who used to sext from the metro, like there is this messy, non-perfect English in some lines that actually hits very close to home for me as a non native speaker. Nothing feels translated for a straight American audience, just tossed at you to deal with. It’s horny, fucked up, a bit clunky, and somehow that makes it more honest.
