You wake up in this cold metal coffin, brain still full of weird cryo dreams, cock already half hard for no good reason, and the first thing you hear is your ship AI calmly telling you the entire Tau Ceti system went silent fifty years ago. No welcome back party, no fancy sci-fi bullshit speeches. Just you, a crew that looks way too hot to be statistically realistic, and a mission brief that screams “we’re all fucked” between the lines. The game doesn’t waste time pretending this is some noble heroic space epic. It’s more like: “Hey commander, everything beyond this door might be hostile, corrupt or horny as hell. Also you really need to keep morale up. Use any tools you have.” And yeah, they mean exactly what you’re thinking. Sometimes even more.

The tone flips in a fun way. One moment you’re walking through dark corridors with only emergency lights on, convinced something is watching from the vents, tension crawling on your skin, then suddenly your second-in-command starts stripping in the med bay because “skin-on-skin contact helps circulation after cryo” and she says it with a straight face. She’s got this insane body, big ass that barely fits in the standard-issue uniform, tits that look… honestly they look like a violation of the Proxima engineering budget. You’re doing a full psychological evaluation and it turns into her sitting on your lap, grinding slow while still talking about chain of command and mission protocol. You’re half listening to the horror story about what happened to the last expedition and half lost in the way her uniform slides down, nipples hard in the cold recycled air. At one point she starts stroking you under the desk while asking if you’re “mentally stable enough to lead.” Answering that form with your dick in her fist is a special flavor of fucked up that the game leans into really hard.

Sex scenes feel like they belong to the stress. Nobody is “romantic”, they are needy, scared, pretending they aren’t. One of my favorite bits is this oral scene in the observation deck, stars drifting by so slow it looks like a painted wall. She gets on her knees between those massive observation windows, jokes about giving the void a show, then opens her mouth and you forget there might be actual monsters waiting out there. She takes you deep, drooling, gagging a little, eyes locked on yours, then when you unload she absolutely refuses to spit. Just looks up, swallows every drop, then casually licks the tip like she’s cleaning a lab tool. After that she snaps right back into mission talk, wiping her lips and briefing you about the blackout like this is a normal staff meeting. The contrast between “I'm full of your cum” and “by the way, we might be the last humans alive in this system” hits harder than any jump scare.

The male domination angle is there, but not in a corny porn way where everyone just instantly worships you. You have authority by rank and the game milks that. You order a crew member to strip because you “need to check for cryo burns”, run your hands along her skin, grip her throat lightly to see her reaction, push her against the bulkhead and fuck her raw while she’s half moaning, half begging you not to forget the actual mission. There’s a scene where you use a toy on her in the lab, just to “test the effects of micro-vibrations on post-cryo muscle tension”. Total bullshit excuse, but she plays along, strapped to a chair, legs spread, toy humming inside her while readouts blink in the background. When she finally creampies herself on the toy, thighs shaking, you’re the one who gets to decide if she licks it clean or you just shove your cock into that overstimulated pussy and finish the job with a messy creampie of your own. And in the next scene she might casually bring up that you’re running low on rations and someone has to volunteer for a high-risk EVA. The game is good at making you horny and slightly guilty at the same time, like you’re jerking off in a haunted spaceship.

What sells it for me is how the horror and the humor keep cockblocking each other. There’s this one gag where the AI deadpans some stupid meme-level line right as you’re about to cum from a rough handjob in the engineering bay. She’s jerking you with oil-stained fingers, muttering how she needs “stress relief” before checking a failing reactor, and the AI chimes in with a safety warning so out of place you actually laugh mid orgasm. It undercuts the seriousness, but in a way that feels real, like people trying to stay sane while they’re one broken bulkhead away from getting spaced. And sometimes the horror takes over completely. Long, quiet walk down a cargo corridor, lights flickering, you hear what sounds like breathing that isn’t yours. No sex, no jokes, just that slow burn psychological shit that reminds you this is still a thriller, not just a porn slideshow. I opened one of the locked doors expecting more tits and toys, got something else, and for a minute I just sat there staring at the screen thinking “ok, maybe everybody fucking all the time is actually the healthiest thing on this ship.”

Also, tiny thing, but it annoyed the hell out of me: one character’s hair clipping through her collar during a really intense scene pulled me right out of it, and then I spent the rest of that scene half focused on her mouth, half staring at that stupid floating hair like a maniac. I never got over it. At least the swallowing animations are on point.

Phone Story looks harmless when it loads, like one of those cheap mobile chat sims you open on Chrome while pretending to check Slack. It is not harmless. It is that slow, nasty itch in the back of your head if you like watching “what if my girl had someone else in her DMs” kind of stuff. You play the husband who goes away, but honestly the main character is Lisa’s damn phone. Half the game is you reading her messages and deciding how much rope you want to give her, then pulling it back too late. You don’t click through some porn slideshow and right into “she’s on a couch with a giant dick in her.” The game takes its time. First it’s just flirty texts, a photo with “is this too much?” kind of teasing, her asking your opinion, your “friend” dropping those little comments that sound harmless until you reread them in incognito at work and realize you’re basically writing your own cuck script.

The pacing is weirdly strong for a messy hentai VN. Sometimes one choice just makes her send a slightly spicier selfie, sometimes it jumps right into a scene where she’s on video call, touching herself, trying to convince you it’s “for you” while that friend’s name keeps popping at the top of the screen. Classic anime-wife look, soft face, kinda innocent expression, but you can watch the corruption slide in bit by bit. She starts dressing more revealing, talking about “just hanging out” with him, a little wine, harmless cuddling, totally not cheating, right? Sure. Then you get those AI-looking CGs where she’s on her knees, lips glossy, your friend’s bbc in front of her mouth, and she’s still typing some sweet romantic bullshit to you with the other hand. The game loves making you stare at chat bubbles while she’s getting filled somewhere offscreen or in a small mirrored reflection. Proper voyeurism energy. The actual sex scenes hit all the usual spots, vaginal, anal, her pinned to a table, riding, messy facials, the whole thing, but the part that sticks is when she looks happy and guilty at the same time and you know it’s half for you and half for herself. Sometimes the writing slips and a line sounds like it came out of Google Translate, but honestly that kinda fits the vibe. On Android Chrome the text boxes get too big and cover half the art, which annoys the hell out of me, and if you tap too fast you skip a good line and there’s no quick log button right in your face, you have to dig for it. Also one route feels like it jumps from “maybe I’ll flirt” to “raw creampie from your buddy” in like two clicks, like the dev got horny and forgot the slow burn. Still, if you’re into netorare or softer netorase stuff, that moment when you tell her “yeah, explore a bit, just don’t forget me” and later you’re literally watching her try anal for the first time with someone else because you told her it’s fine, that hits way harder than it has any right to. And yeah, sometimes you tell her to stay faithful and the game almost seems annoyed, like “are you sure you don’t want to watch?” but then it gives you these surprisingly sweet romantic scenes where she masturbates with the phone propped up, moaning your name while she’s already mentally halfway to the neighbor’s bedroom. Not subtle at all, but that’s kind of the point.

You start as this guy who was living the dream on the court, and then your body just says “fuck you” and everything crashes. No more crowds, no more glory, just painkillers, physio, and a silence that feels way too loud. I liked how the game makes you sit with that for a bit. You’re not some magic gigachad from second one. You limp, you doubt yourself, you stare at your own reflection like “what now, idiot?”. And then the old college calls, throws you a lifeline in the shape of a girls’ basketball team that needs a coach, and suddenly that empty space in your life gets filled with sweat, tight uniforms, and way too many questionable thoughts during practice.

The mood shifts fast once you meet the team. They’re all in these fitted sport uniforms that hug every line, stretching over wet skin in the locker room, shorts riding up when they run drills. The game takes its time with the locker room scenes, the way water slides down their thighs in the showers, the way a simple stretch turns into your eyes getting stuck on bouncing tits and exposed underwear. It starts kind of innocent, like “you’re their mentor, be professional”, and then there’s this one late practice where you’re doing one-on-one training, her breathing all heavy, sweat shining on her abs, and she says she wants a “special reward” if she hits enough free throws. Suddenly she’s on her knees in the empty gym, lights low, giving you messy deep oral right there on the polished floor, her ponytail brushing your thigh while her uniform top is pushed up, nipples hard. The animation on her lips sliding down your shaft is surprisingly detailed, the little gag, the string of spit when she pulls away to catch her breath. You’re supposed to be correcting her form, and instead she’s stroking you with one hand, still gripping the ball with the other like it’s some dirty joke only you two understand. When you finally push her down on the bench and fuck her raw, legs spread, sneakers still on, the creampie shot is thick and slow, dripping out while she’s trying not to moan too loud in case someone walks in.

And then the story decides that’s not enough chaos and drops your ex back into the city. The one you knocked up during that “break” with your wife that was definitely not a real break. She shows up like a bomb. She’s softer than the sporty girls, more curves, more emotional landmine. There’s this scene where you meet her in some bland cafe, and under the table she starts rubbing your thigh like nothing happened, like she didn’t drag a whole kid-shaped problem into your life. Later on, at her place, it’s a totally different vibe from the gym sex. Lights low, slow romance mixed with guilt, handjob on the couch while the TV plays some random bullshit, her thumb teasing your tip while she looks you right in the eye and asks if you ever think about “that night”. You end up fucking her proper, bare, sinking into that familiar pussy, and it’s not just lust, it’s this heavy, dangerous comfort. The game leans into the wrongness of it without apologizing. There’s vaginal, there’s sloppy oral, there’s her riding you until your cum leaks out of her and stains the sheets, and for a moment it almost feels wholesome which makes it worse. Then next day you’re back in the gym with a cute rookie stretching in front of you, shorts sliding up her ass, and your phone buzzing with your ex’s messages, and you realize this guy’s life is one long fast break straight into a wall. I kinda loved it. I kinda hated everyone. I clicked “next” anyway.

Dragons, horny idiots, and way too many bad decisions, that’s kinda the tone here. You start out in this messy fantasy world where everyone either wants to stab you, fuck you, or make you solve some weird little puzzle before they tell you where the next dragon clue is. The game lets you pick who you are right away: guy, girl, or futa, and it actually matters because people react to you a bit different, and some scenes just hit different when you’re a shy virgin futa trying to act cool in front of a monster girl with more confidence than common sense. It’s not subtle. One moment you’re trying to think through a puzzle with glowing runes and pattern matching, next moment, you click the “wrong” symbol and suddenly you’re on your knees in first person, mouth full, and the camera just stays there a little too long while the animation loops. In a good way. Mostly.

The “visual novel plus sandbox” thing is a strange mix that kinda works and kinda annoys me. You’ve got this hub where you wander around to find your companions, poke at side quests, and sometimes you just want to jump directly into the next romance scene, but no, the game makes you trot across the area, poke some shiny object, do a small puzzle, listen to a bit of lore about dragons, then, boom, here’s the lesbian scene you were actually waiting for. There’s a moment where my female MC finally hooked up with this monster girl with claws and soft voice, and the build up was cute as hell, all tension and “is this really happening,” then it cuts to animated vaginal and oral, lots of wet sounds, POV angles that actually show what’s going on instead of hiding everything behind a single static shot. I liked that the creampie isn’t just a flash, it lingers, drips, the camera actually respects that people want to stare. But the accessibility side is honestly rough sometimes. The text box has decent font size, but there’s no real text-to-speech, no configurable high contrast mode, and some of the puzzle highlight colors blend into the background like it’s 2010 again. I had to squint more than once, and I’m already using Windows magnifier because devs keep pretending everyone sees fine. Keyboard navigation is half-baked too: you can tab through some choices, but not all, and some mini-games want mouse precision without any assist options. Makes me want to yell at my monitor a bit.

Still, the character stuff sticks with me. There’s this companion quest where my futa MC decided not to romance the guy, just help him deal with his dragon-related trauma, and the game actually respected that. No forced sex, no “secret” romance flag, just quiet scenes and then later I went for the soft, clingy romance with a female character instead, and that route spiraled into pregnancy talk that did not feel like an afterthought. Watching the belly show up later in a scene while she rides you, full on animated, is weirdly intimate and also kinda filthy, in a good way, because the story mentioned it earlier so it doesn’t appear out of nowhere. There are also handjob scenes where the camera goes very close to fingers and shaft, very deliberate strokes, cum shots that actually match the motion instead of the usual lazy splash. It’s horny, sure, but sometimes it slows down and lets the romance breathe, and then ruins the mood again by tossing in a puzzle with tiny icons that are absolute hell if you’re playing on a trackpad. I kept thinking “why is there no option to simplify this for people with shaky hands” while my character was getting railed from behind in another scene ten minutes later. Also, whoever mapped the skip and auto-advance buttons clearly never used a screen reader, because the clickable zones are tiny, and I almost clicked past a really good scene with a futa-on-futa blowjob followed by a messy double creampie that honestly deserved its own replay gallery filter. But no, you just scroll and scroll and scroll. Not fixing that, I guess.
