HTML - Degrees of Lewdity [v0.5.4.9] [Vrelnir]

Okay, so I thought Degrees of Lewdity was gonna be one of those messy, try-hard text games you close after 15 minutes… but nope. This is one of those weird little games that sneaks up on you and then eats your whole weekend. I went in expecting cheap shock value and shallow smut, came out impressed at how much actual game is hiding under all the filth.

Mechanically, it’s way deeper than it looks. You’re an 18-year-old in a messed-up town trying to scrape together rent, and there are a lot of ways to do it, legit jobs, shady side hustles, or… much darker stuff. Stats matter, outfits matter, even your demeanor matters. That “gentle” face you start with? You can swap it for something sly, aloof, catty, whatever, and NPCs will treat you differently. There’s crafting-ish stuff (about 80 recipes), a tactical encounter system, transformation options, achievement currency for replays, and little touches like the mirror UI, school mechanics tied to your skills, and the new canvas combat renderer. It’s all way more interconnected than you’d expect from a porn game.

What really got me is how much freedom you have. You can play sweet and innocent, fight off every creep in town, or slowly let the place corrupt you. And it’s not just random spam, the world actually reacts to what you do. Your stats, choices, and relationships stick, and over time the tone of your run can shift completely.

It’s also dangerously addictive. One minute you’re fighting off something you really didn’t want to deal with (dogs, demons, or your math teacher being wildly inappropriate), and the next you’re just chilling in the school kitchen because you learned a new recipe in housekeeping.

The writing’s sharp, grimly funny in places, and the world is gross but consistent. It’s intentionally nasty, but there’s always some new branching hook to pull you forward. The mod scene and active dev/community keep it growing, so there’s already dozens of hours of content if you like digging into systems.

Real talk though, this game leans very dark. A lot of encounters aren’t sunshine and roses, and a huge chunk is non-consensual or otherwise extreme. Not for everyone. But the game gives you toggles for a bunch of fetishes, so you can push as far as you’re comfortable. There are still some clunky UI bits and grindy/broken events here and there (HTML/Twine quirks), but the core loop is so engaging I stopped caring.

If you like sandbox sims with real mechanical depth, massive customization, and a filthy, unapologetic world, this is a guilty-pleasure masterpiece. If you hate bleak or extreme themes, hard pass. If you’re cool with them? Yeah… you might be here a while.

Buggy. Asylum is time eater and there no reliable way to decrease trauma, forum answers doesn't help. Need a dozens of hours to regrind to get the content with careful trauma management. Not so sandbox as people describes.

Great teaser but nothing new if i strive to the core.

Too time consuming.

Miracle that can you explore more but it eighter dull eigher you end up in asylum

10/10

This is nearly perfect, I just want more of what this game offers. I think the game is lacking in dominance part. It's pretty much random encounters where something wants to fuck you, not that you can go around and fuck others.

DoL is a masterpice. You can play pretty much how you want. You can be a forever virgin, milk yourself to get money, beat up rapists, get raped, get impregnated or impregante someone and a lot more. There are a lot of achievements you can get. Each achievement gives you coins which you can use to buff yourself in your next playthrough. This is one of my most played games of all time including non-h games. 10/10 peak pls keep updating forever

It's not for everyone, but it's one of, if not the best porn text game available. And the only reason I'm hesitating is because it's not yet complete. It has some of the best dialogue. A lot of freedom, a lot of customization, and also a lot of depth. I love the transformations, and the exploration.

The loss of control is also great. I love a game that punishes me for losing, without being so easy that I have to lose on purpose. Yet it's not imbalanced, and it's possible to overcome hard challenges as well.

And to top it all off, it has a fantastic modding community, which is something I value highly, since I like modding games myself.

The dev is also great, and has incorporated some ideas from mods into the main game, which makes for an even greater experience.

All around great game. The fight/fuck mechanic gives a lot of choice in differing play styles. Regarding Customization this game is peak in terms of your characters demeanor and fashion. If you want to be a big titty goth girl or a skinny twink you can!

10/10
This is the singular best lewd and lascivious life simulator I have encountered.

• Able to do anything you want, wherever you want, wherever you want, however you want
• Mod and imagepack support
• Extremely long with an extreme amount of content

You live as a young adult, and every minute counts and can drastically change gameplay in the future. The key point of this is that despite the number of times you end up bound for reason #247 or another, you have an unmatched granularity in control of how you go about day-to-day life and respond to situations.

My only issue is that the default images make the main character look uncomfortably young, considering how brutal situations can get.

An all-time classic when it comes to adult games, at this point. I've been playing DOL since about 2019, off and on, and boy does it always deliver. I hardly even play for the smut anymore, but what is there is wonderful and the actual game aspect of the piece is stellar.

I know it's a text based game, but my only suggestion would be to add more animations and graphics - especially for the Lurkers, Wasps, Bees, and other such creatures that haven't received any visual love yet. Looking forward to how the game progresses, as always.

If you're looking for a customizable porn game, this is it. There are tons of things to do, thousands of ways to get into trouble, and thousands of getting out of them, also experiencing this game for the first time and see what outcome your character has been one of my favorite experiences, also there are tons of thing to do and experience this world with COW-GIRLS, WOLFS, ANGELS, DEMONS, ETC.

Great game, lots of things to do. the one thing that would make this better is if the player character looked older, the game says they are 18, but they certainly do not look like it.
If it wasn't for that one issue this would easily be a 10/10

I'm not sure this game is British enough...

Degrees of Lewdity (DoL to it's friends) is a text based web game. Normally, these are middling to poor, given how easily they can be pumped out. DoL says screw that noise, I'm going to be needlessly complicated. You take on the role of a freshly minted 18-year old orphan, whose attempts to move out are stymied by two things: First, your guardian has taken your documents and is demanding back rent, and secondly, the town is unbearably sexual.

The gameplay loop moves through weeks; Mon-Fri you have school, and you're expected to pay an increasing amount of money at the start of each week. The game gives you plenty of ways to earn that money, from simple low paying tasks, to high risk, high reward tasks. Schoolwork ties into the real meat of the game: the stat and status system. The stat system here can rival professionally made games, with the game tracking everything from how good you are at math to how good your grip on reality is to how popular you are as a prostitute, and giving you plenty of skill rolls to use those stats on.

The entire time, you're running the risk of being sexually harassed. The vast, vast majority of sexual encounters in DOL are non or dubcon, and pretty much everyone in town wants you sexually. Some of the encounters/storylines can get extremely dark fast, and deal with themes of abuse and psychological damage (another stat the game keeps track of). Suffice to say, this is not a game for light hearted sexual fun, and it's not a game you're dominant in.

Outside of that, the character customization can be pretty decently robust; one of the main things to do with your money is to purchase new outfits (that, naturally, have gameplay and social effects), and crossdressing is a non-minor part of the game. On top of that, there's several transformations you can undergo, by meeting certain requirements; DOL straddles the line between fantasy and reality with expert precision.

The combat system here is actually pretty interesting, for a text game. You can move your various body parts in response to your sexual partner (or partners! Many encounters contain more than one assailant), and what you do and how you hold yourself affects how the encounter goes for you. The more you fight, the more it hurts, for example. As you get more practiced in using each of your body parts, your ability to do so well increases.

If the game has a shortcoming, it's that it is a text game; while it does provide generic animations for various sexual acts, most of the content comes in the form of descriptions. Don't let that turn you off of this game, though, as what is there is done well.

What should turn you off of this game is if you're not comfortable with the dark themes that it embodies. It's possible to turn some of them off, but DOL is a game that thrives in exploring the darker aspects of kink. Not that there's not plenty of good and wholesome involved, as some of the storylines can be sweet, but you'll be going through plenty of suffering to get there.

It's a game I highly recommend, and it's one of the few slower burning games that can hold my attention for a long time, just because of how detailed the worldbuilding here is, but that should come with the caveat that I really enjoy dark themes in my kinks, so it bears repeating to be mindful of that going in; pretty much any hard kink you can imagine is here.

I really dislike whoever recommended this game to me because I just spent the entire day playing, glued to my screen.
Damn good game with a lot of content.
I'm playing the DoL Transmod Plus version

I see DOL as the best HTML erotic game out there! I've been playing for years and watching the game grow as my character does has been a joy. The dev, Vrelnir, is very active and the Discord community clearly shows their love for the game and everything strange/quirky about it.

This is not a game for everyone. Every possible content warning imaginable applies to the scenarios your character will face. But if you're looking for an open world sex-ridden semi-adventure text game with sparse pixel art (thank god for the devs revamping the artwork a few years ago) then DOL is worth trying.

Lot's of possibilities, well written, enjoyable grind. Top tier.

First are the options, you can customize your experience like nothing else before. Kinks, gender repartition, difficulties, and so on!
Then there is the world of DoL, so many possibilities, it offers a great replayability when you can go different paths.

This game is amazing, there is a bunch contents in it, wish i know what im doing sometimes, but that's my problem, not the game's. I particularly like the fact that there are a bunch of stats progression that we can achieve in this game, the amount of false sense of achievement that i get from this game is really helpful in taking me away from reality.

I'm addicted to this game rn, cant stop playing it. Good stuff. I need a game like this but without porn as the center of it, like a fighting game or adventue game, if anyone knows, please tell me. (Forgive my english, not my first language)

A life sim victim simulator with a supernatural twist. That said, I wouldn't say the game is for everybody, it gets extremely repetitive, specifically, schooling does. And there is some combat system, where they said that they would revamp...who knows when, but it's pretty shallow, DoL Plus (a mod of the game) does it a lot better even if it's unbalanced in it's own way.

To explain more about what I mean about ridiculous: Why is your character who is in...high school? college (doubtful)? Still in an orphanage, especially when you pay thousands of dollars to stay in the orphanage, just go get an apartment, we know those exist within the town lol. Almost everyone is a rapist lmao, and the cops are so blatantly corrupt that rape=okay but if you get caught stealing you're fucked...literally and figuratively. There's a lot more I could say about the setting being kind of goofy, I mean it's a porn game at the end of the day what do you expect...

But it does make it so if you are trying to be immersed in the game, you kind of have to make up excuses and head cannon for why things are the way they are, because it just doesn't make sense otherwise. If you can get past that and how repetitive the game can be though, it's pretty easy to sink a lot of hours in to it, overall good game, it does what it sets out to do.

While the game still has a long way to go I do applaud it for trying something different in the realm of Adult games and actually attempting to be a game. There's stats and customization, random chance, etc. Its by no means finished and I think there's a lot of room for improvement, notably more dynamic sexual engagement, different poses, giving the player the option to fully take charge, etc. I think whats here is a really good foundation and I'm excited to see where the game goes.

When going into this game, I had a low opinion of HTML games. However, I have spent numerous hours playing this. Only ever played as a female, but even in that restriction, there are so many paths of gameplay. The relationships with the various NPCs are interesting. The animations can feel repetitive after playing as long as I have, yet they still look good.

This game is very open ended and challenging if you're trying to play through without cheats, albeit grindy. It's like a slow burn corruption game as the very rapey town slowly whittles away the MC's sanity. It's hard for a story not to be depressing if you're playing as orphan sex bait, but there is a relationship system that offers a glimmer of hope, and many more options become accessible as your skill levels increase.

With cheats, the game becomes a sandbox exploring a decent variety of fetishes with a very customizable protag. That includes a variety of bestiality (dogs, horses, pigs and their strange orgasms, wasps, facehuggers, an eagle), gangbangs, nekomimi / kemonomimi transformations, aphrodisiacs, alcohol, and lots of rape

The combat system is the draw here, with the enemies trying to force themselves on you as they slowly break down your defenses. You can pull your clothes back up, keep them away from your sensitive areas using hands and legs, pull away if they're about to penetrate you, or be saved by a lack of lubricating fluid. Over time, if they get angry, they might try and beat you into submission, or tear away your clothes, or draw on your body. They'll take advantage of you if you can't resist because of the pain, or you'll pull away from their encroaching cocks at every turn only to have a sudden orgasm from their groping, unable to resist the cock as it finally plunges into your trembling, virgin wet pussy, shattering your mind, cumming inside you, leaving you with $5 and hoping you didn't just get impregnated. Then, with torn clothes and cum dripping out of you, you have to hope you don't run into someone else who might take advantage of you in your vulnerable state, starting a spiral out of control until you end up tied up unconscious in a back alley getting fucked by two hung futas while another takes pictures to spread around town.

I may have gotten a little horny with that previous paragraph, but if you're a subby slut like me, you'll enjoy this game.

been glued to this game for weeks and keep coming back, honestly finding a hard time finding games with the same vibe. still on my first playthrough using dol plus and its been extremely fun. I was cautuous about the text base at first but after some time i really got into it. 10/10
