Well, we made it, folks – 2022 is almost over. And as we face the coming year with all the optimism of a baby deer staring into the headlights of an oncoming 50,000-pound truck, now seems the perfect time to take a glimpse back over our shoulders at what the last 12 months brought us: hentai and plenty of it. But not all hentai was created equal! For our last article of the year, we have picked out the top 20 doujin hentai releases, ideal for those who like to bide their time waiting until the end of the year and only picking up the choicest of depraved nuggets to fill their hard drives with. So without further ado, let’s dive in…
First up, and the only audio on the list, is some slurpy, sexy ASMR about an elf who comes to our world trying to get knocked up.
It’s girls in schools uniforms vs. succubi in this 3D action adventure at number 19.
I could tell you about number 18, or you could just play it for yourself right here on Hentai Playground!
Turn an innocent video shoot into something deeply inappropriate in this conversation-based loli game.
We’re only a quarter of the way through the list and we’ve already hit more succubi – this time they’re invading your school and you’ll have to sacrifice your fragile male dignity to stop them.
Look after and protect, or torture and persecute, a tiny alien girl in this quirky simulation.
The updated version of a hentai animation classic which we covered here, now with added backstory.
Enjoy (or try to prevent?) the NTR of your village and your two childhood friends/default romantic interests in this game at number 13.
Fight as a reluctant saint against an evil lust cult in this side-scrolling action game.
Harvest the magic of loli witches by ensnaring them with traps and tentacles in this game at number 11.
Bringing us into the top ten is this delight which brings busty femdom into the third dimension.
Navigate traps as a freshly-futinari-fied mage, and try not to fall prey to the temptations this new…toy offers…in this top-down action adventure.
At number 8 we have your cute step-sister coming to live with you. What you do with her us up to your own conscience.
A game about making sure everyone is following the rules. Check girls’ information against their student IDs and punish them for any wrongdoing!
Run your own brothel and become a sex industry mogul! Just watch out for STDs, pregnant workers and karoushi (death through overwork).
Bringing us into the top five is The Witch’s Night of Vengeance, a dark action fantasy game where a witch must fight her way through demons to get her revenge on the church. There are plenty of traps to fall into and enemies to be overwhelmed by, so it won’t be long before her boobs are on full display.
4. Rignetta’s Adventure
At number 4 is Rignetta’s Adventure, the first game by a solo developer. Explore while getting caught and made to orgasm by a variety of enemy types. Some have described it as like a naughty 2D Zelda game, which is a lofty comparison to be sure. If you’re a fan of pixel art sex and haven’t picked this up already, then you need to question your life choices.
Putting the hentai H in “horror” at number 3 is Afterschool Tag. A shota is forced to explore his school alone at night to prove he’s not chicken, and ends up encountering spooky supernatural forces with lewd intent. It’s all fun and games until someone gets cum-squeezed to death.
Not to be confused with Black Market, Monster Black Market is less about pleasing human customers through sex and more about breeding monsters with slave girls to produce fun offspring combinations that you can sell. Don’t worry – I’m sure they’ll go off to a good home. Probably even with a roof and everything.
And here we have it – the top spot this year is taken by ErisDysnomia – a game we loved so much we did a whole feature on it back in July. That’s the Hentai Playground difference, folks – we know a winner when we see it. 2022 was a great year for side-scrolling action, and ErisDysnomia is the pinnacle. One of the things that sets it apart is the way you set the Eris, the protagonist’s, sensitive spots and fetishes from the start, which will influence how she behaves, giving a fun reason to replay the game to see how her responses can differ. There’s even a skill tree you can use to further fine-tune Eris’ abilities, so you can make her into your ideal image…as far as slutty demon girls go.
Those of you who made it all the way down here – thank you for reading! This is our last article of the year, and we hope you enjoyed reading Hentai Playground as much as I enjoy filling you in on the hottest stuff in naughty Japanese doujin content. We will be back in January, so for now, have a Happy New Year, and be sure to join the DLsite Discord for more hentai chatter, and, of course…
