This is a fascinating game, with lots of potential and a much darker story than we see on this website. Although this is an HTML game, it's clear that the developer has learned a lot from his previous game, not only in terms of character development, but also in presentation.
As it stands right now, the game makes sparse use of AI (for character portraits and transitions), while most of the content is derived from real porn. Surprisingly, both do complement each other, and do not detract from enjoying the story.
Although the female protagonist is very attractive, she carries a look of determination and seriousness throughout, which makes the world of the game feel more grounded and real. The way she speaks to others and herself also feels tonally consistent.
Furthermore, even though it's clear that there will be more sexual content as the story progresses (and Casey falls victim to the hospital's experimentations), it seems as though she will not lose sight of her sexual agency, or her personal motivations to solve the case.
Keep in mind that the game currently has very little sexual content. This is only a demo, after all. But the developer's previous game (The Mansion) had loads of scenes, love interests and a very long story full of twists and turns, so I'm not concerned at all.
The game also has some gameplay elements that I haven't seen in any other game - there's a sanity meter that actually seems to work, as well as a flashlight functionality that changes the way the protagonist moves in the environment - especially with enemy encounters.
I'm confident the game will be able to make proper use of these elements in future updates, perhaps by slowing the drain rate for the batteries, and further develop the combat by incorporating the sanity gauge. It's a very ambitious and unique approach to adult games.
As long as the developer is able to keep the game's code simple and tidy (without needlessly complicated variables or features), and as long as the story remains dark and brooding, I feel that this game will be a breath of fresh air in an overcrowded - if not oversaturated market.
So I highly recommend it if you're on the mood for something different. It's more akin to Alan Wake 2 than modern-day porn games with stupid, naïve characters with no agency who are only there to be abused by others, as we often see with female protagonists.
The premise is interesting, the UI is polished, and the execution so far is quite decent and tonally consistent. Do yourself a favor and check it out.
