What is the most interesting game genre that you would see in a porn game? (with episodes game I mean a visual novel divided in episodes)

Well, the majority of games on here are 'episodes' games, and there are plenty of card games around - but I've never seen a city builder porn game (making it, by default, the most interesting of the three). I can't actually picture how it would work - like SimCity with hardcore sex? Would you have to screw the contractors to put up a building, or the financiers to get funding? Or seduce police chiefs and mayors to come work for you?

What I can say is that - if I saw it - I'd play it :geek:

Without having more details on what you mean by a city building or episodes game it's hard to judge those. I think the benefit of a card game is the replayability if it's an actual game. If it's more of a simplistic simulation of a card game then I think it's less interesting. If it's a card game that actually follows the rules of a regular card game then it adds variability to the outcome and something to work towards if you have a specific outcome you're going for. If it's a simulation and there's really just a few choices that lead to guaranteed outcomes then it's a lot less interesting.

Not sure what to think about the city builder idea, but the episodes idea has me curious as to whether you mean something similar to an idea I've been considering. Basically a series of sandbox "episodes" joined by a more traditional VN style event series. The thing I like about that idea is you could have the sandbox mode set up with repeatable events that allow you to build up to whatever you have planned for the next episode and then you can have a more story focused event series that is triggered to lead you to the next episode.

An example of what I mean for the episode model is maybe MC starts off poor, lives in a run down apartment, and works at a retail store. There are other things going on but those are the parts of his life that are relevant to this episode. When he aquires enough skills he can get a job as an accountant or whatever and upgrade to a better apartment or buy a house or something. This triggers the next episode where the run down apartment and the retail store no longer exist as locations and are replaced by a nicer apartment/house/whatever and an office building that he works at. Some or all of the rest of his options would carry over between episodes but the ones that are unique to each episode wouldn't.

You could have things like relationship statuses or whatever as triggers for this as well. Maybe a new update is triggered when your girlfriend moves in with you and prior to that you live separately. Or there is a rival in the episode and the next episode is triggered when either you beat the rival or he beats you and would have some sort of meaningful impact on the story either way.

Problem with city builders is that they are hella complex and therefore hard to do right. A monkey can do a VN while you need to be a decent programmer to do a city builder.

Prolly something similar to Make Me Lover . Or dont go full city building, go more management sandbox style where you start with nothing but a patch of dirt and need to go on adventures, do tasks, quests, etc, in order to gain more money, lands, characters, materials, rep,etc, so you can start to expand your initial patch of dirty into a small town and so on. Preferably non text-only and anime style.

A bit off topic since it's not an adult game, but if city builders are your thing you should try Frostpunk. The main reason I mention it is that unlike most city builders it has an antagonist that makes it exciting (the weather). Depending on the scenario there are other quests as well but the main theme is to build a city that can withstand ridiculously extreme weather or everyone will freeze to death.
