    (4/7) Large collection of real life porn and a functional daily life simulator but no real long term character development

    You play a man in a city where there are pills that can turn you into a woman with various side effects.

    As far as MTF games go this one is remarkable in that it actually has several mechanics that deal with your acceptance of your transformation, although they don't really have a huge effect on the game they are nice from a narrative point of view.

    The game stands out because there are truly a lot of images. You can choose one of 8 or so characters to play, and each will have a corresponding female version which is a different pornstar fully implemented with images for clothes, sex scenes and daily life activities.

    You can also play as the other female versions by using a special machine. Some sex scenes are specific to a certain character.

    Unfortunately the game has some issues with progression. The main game loop is to go to work selling transformation pills where you will be required to sometimes try the pills to make a sale, each different pill giving you a minigame as a character exclusive to that pill.

    The second half of the game is a usual daily life simulator which you can play as a man or a woman depending of if you took some pills or not. The issue is that these two halves don't really interact and although you can become more okay with being a woman it doesn't really effect which sex scenes you get or unlock any new paths in either the work minigames or the regular life part of the game.

    Once you've played a minigame once you've pretty much seen all it has to offer. That includes the regular sex with strangers in the real life. You can unlock new positions but there's no real fetishes or even gloryholes to enjoy. You can pretty much see all the variety the game has to offer in that regard by sleeping with 1 guy.

    The developer also has an obsession with sticking minigames everywhere and almost all the work sex scenes have some bizarre puzzle to progress. You can disable most of them in the settings but a few are still forced on you.

    Overall I would say this game is worth a play just for the sheer volume of content it has fully animated and the overall production quality, but it's hard to see that it will become some masterpiece with another N minigames/scenes.

    This is the cream of the crop when it comes to HTML games. The filtered and curated images make it feel less low effort than other HTML games and it features actual gameplay and multiple characters to choose from. The mods also enhance the experience and they come from a surprisingly active community.

    X-Change Life is a wild ride through body-swapping chaos and steamy romance. The art is vibrant and eye-catching, bringing its quirky characters to life in a way that’s both charming and a little cheeky. One of my favorites!

    A good and interesting game.
    The concept is quite amusing and clearly targets certain fetishes.
    Mini-games and video clips fit perfectly into the gameplay.
    The only serious drawback is the tedious repetitive work, which also requires nerdy studying of different companies' "products" and customer requirements. If this part were more fun, it would be a true masterpiece!

    really good game, i follow it for some time now, and i love how it evolve and progress to become a really good game. Plus, the modding part after you play un bunch of time to avec a relly cool different game is also very cool

    Non-con lovers stay away, this game has none of it despite having options for enabling it. The pregnancy is also less satisfying than a game over CG. What little it does have in those areas hardly qualifies. There's also very little content for its age, especially given it's a paid subscription game using the easiest forms of art real porn, ai, and deepfakes. What you'll get is a very limited way to explore where you choose your destinations at the beginning of the day. At those places you can meet random hookups which play the same scenes. If you do what little exploration you can through dialogue then you can find one of the few unique scenes.

    Girls life is waaaaaaaaay more complete than this and I'd still rather play it after seeing everything GL has few times over already. I like that you get a consistent look and portraits, but it's not worth the lack of content. It falls apart in many places anyway such as the secretary job, or the maid, where you're forced to transform into a specific person.

    4/5 if you enjoy male to female interactions

    If you're in the grey zone of whether you're unsure you want to be turned into a slut and get dicked down, don't play this game, because you might quickly find out, that's what you secretly wanted after all and this game will nudge you in that direction without your say on the matter until your resistance is futile.

    One of the most interesting HTML games, especially the mechanics of selling pills and in general the mini-games are very cool and fortunately you don’t have to play them if do not want or if your hands are busy

    The single best adult game I've ever played. I'm not into trans stuff at all, it's more about the sex dynamic in the game. All this needs is more girls, more scenes, more pills... more more more. The author is pretty active on their Discord too.

    This game is crazy, none of it comes off as that weird and it plays really well. Super moddable and kinda adictive. Only thing that would be good is if the repeatable sale scenes/ ect. had more variety but there is a mod that fixes that. Excited for new content for this.

    This is an excellent game, well made with plenty of options and choices. It actually has diversity with the women you can transform into and has a fun gameplay loop. Can't wait to see it fully complete.

    I love this game, it's a wonderful little sandbox of smut, though the lack of trans and lesbian options for fun is kinda weird for this type of game, still the music and 80's nostalgia is a great backdrop to the many fun scenes.

    [v0.19 May]
    Great game that I keep coming back to. It has great sound design (both in music that plays in a lot of places, and in effects), decent art (typically real porn passed through some filters to make it look more drawn - such a style is not for everyone, but I enjoy it), hot writing all around, and surprisingly detailed worldbuilding (a quick overview is that the game takes place in a city-state owned by an artificial intelligence, who really likes sex and also is really into retro. Yeah.). Ultimately, it's a world of kinky (gender-bent or not) sex where nothing truly bad happens to people (or at least, not to anyone we see on-screen).
    The gameplay is mostly a life simulator. The job is surprisingly fun to just... do, without trying to get sex scenes and instead optimizing for profit. The sex scenes are mostly active gameplay (having to play realtime minigames during scenes, and making choices to do resource management). Not for everyone, but it's done quite well.
    The game is developed pretty actively, and also has modding support, so you don't have to be limited to the official content.
    As for the cons - the game has long been plagued by bad performance (it's not terrible, but the delays between passages are quite noticeable), and updates often break old saves (not as in "you can't load them", but as in "you'll be unable to access new content on an old save, and also might get broken passages") - there is overall a feel that the game could use more testing. Also, once you get tired of the lifesim stuff like work and sex with various people, there's... not all that much content. There's a main quest, but it's maybe 10 hours of content. There's the special scenes (usually in the gym) for various characters, but they also quickly run out, not to mention they're kind of... all similar. There's some Alexia and stepdad content, but not a lot of that, either. It would help the game a lot if you could build persistent long-term relationships with people and have them react differently due to them.
    Despite these problems, I can't really bring myself to give less than 5 stars since there's just not all that many games on this site that are better than this one.

    ver 0.20: There's several hours of polished content at this stage, the writing is top notch and the characters are to the point! There's also an active modding community working with the dev. In terms of gameplay you can try to bed as many women as possible whilst trying to avoid transformation content, work your way to the top of the corporate heap hoping the occasional demonstration of gender swapping pills don't have long term effects on you or just embrace it and see what happens. There seems to be LOADS more content planned and I'm actually interested in how the storyline pans out.

    Awesome. One of the best games I've played. And I played millions.
    I can't wait for new versions. The entire gameplay is fun. Thanks a lot. Tons of content and it's only 0.19. This is an example of how to make games. 10/10.

    Quality wise it's very solid. Lot of work, put together very nicely. Downright professional.

    My only gripes are personal preference, largely. Mostly with the writing. But with a few other things. Like access to saves. It'd be nice to be able to always save. Especially since there are one-time scenes.

    But other than that, for what it is, very solid. I will warn people, the tone is a bit much at times. It's kinda of... well, 4chan, I guess. Makes sense, considering the gimmick. But it'll drop like 'alpha' and 'chad', and sort of expect people to take the use of these terms seriously. It's very gender essentialist in general, really. Which is weird as hell considering the premise. It's very straight man, I guess. Heteronormative, if you want me to get academic with it. Male characters all have this sort of greasy patina to them. There's misogyny at play. It's not as weird about black dudes as it COULD be... but it still is.

    It's all a bit tonally dissonant for a game that you'd think would be queer as hell, and not particularly concerned with gender essentialism. Seeing as gender literally doesn't matter in universe, you take someone and just swap the body. Clearly it wouldn't matter.

    But again, that does fit with the premise, the whole 'X-change' thing. That's how that little bit of contrived niche fetish shit went. It's just sort of unfortunate. Feels like a bit of a waste of the initial setting.

    But hey, like I always say. Ain't nothin gayer than a straight dude.
