It’s here! The best month of all! Indeed, we here at Hentai Playground are big Halloween fans, and think that the general atmosphere of spookiness and fun makes for one of the most exciting times to consume CONTENT. And that includes hentai, of course. And in the same way that there are all sorts of ways to enjoy Halloween (cute Halloween, scary Halloween, slutty Halloween, etc), there are all sorts of seasonally-appropriate ways to jack your lantern, too! DLsite knows that better than anyone, and created a charming little promotion that’s got both tricks AND treats to fill those big ol’ candy buckets (read: shopping carts) of yours. That’s right, DLsite is the hentai equivalent of that house that gives out the full-size candy bars… let’s take a look at what they’ve got for us this year!
Let’s start off with a game for all the sister-sexers out there that’s just loaded to the brim with frankly very impressive pixel art and animation. Oh, and some pretty wonky English. But hey, if the content’s good, linguistic goofery is no problem. Just ask every single early 90s fighting game. Anyway, things are pretty simple here. You walk around. You diddle your little sister. You buy porn at the convenience store. Living the life, etc.
But hey, “simple” doesn’t mean there’s a shortage of sexy content! The porn you buy will unlock new positions to try out with your beloved sis, and you can even pick her up and carry her around at your leisure. Anything to get her out of the house… and into a dirty alley so you can fuck her on top of someone’s AC unit. You’ll definitely want to bring her to lots of different places and try out as many positions as you can, because again, this is some top-quality pixelcraft. If you’re looking to relax and have a quick fap before bed on an especially spooky night, it doesn’t get much better than this!
Next we have another lower-impact game, seeing as how it’s a visual novel and all, but I think you’ll still find it sweeter than a bucket of Oh Henry bars. What, no Oh Henry-likers out there? Philistines. Just trust me on this one… with all the masochistic fun packed into this game, it’s a rare treat indeed. And I do mean rare. How often is it that you come across a visual novel tailor-made for the discerning femdom enthusiast? It’s a criminally untapped market.
And since the genre is so rare, consider it a blessing that this game runs through so, so much of what femdom has to offer. You’ve got your standard footjobs, your chastity cages, your leashes and collars… but then there’s the real freak shit, like magical onaholes and futanari fucking! And if you’ve got any experience with studio Banana King’s previous work, you’ll know that they always deliver on the artistic quality, as well. This is a must-have if you’re into girls on top, and hey, said girl being a witch makes it even more perfect for October!
Now we’re getting into the spookier side of the promotion. Here there be monsters… many of them quite tentacle-y. Sorry, Estella. And you’re welcome, reader! Estella’s Nightmare sees the titular catgirl transported to the realm of a succubus named… Succubus, and sent on a quest to open the magical barriers that will send her home. But does her mysterious benefactor have other goals in mind? And how exactly is that weird symbol on Estella’s stomach supposed to help? You’ll just have to play and find out!
The game plays a bit like a side-scrolling action game, but battles are based on timing and meters, giving them a sort of RPG flare. It’s quite fun to fire off poison blasts and magic missiles while remembering to keep your guard up, and as the game goes on your reflexes will get tested even further. Lose a battle, and Estella will be subjected to a humiliating (and animated!) defeat scene, courtesy of whatever she just failed to trounce. From zombies and dogs to tentacle monsters and… odd, crustacean-type things, Estella’s certainly got her work cut out for her. Fun battle system aside, I fully expect you to lose on purpose CONSTANTLY. Wouldn’t be much of a nightmare without some hardship, would it?
When it comes to indie hentai action, it really doesn’t get much better than Ricca. There are professionally-made games out there that aren’t this much fun to play. Hell, there are fully-formed human beings with thoughts and feelings that aren’t this fun to be around. When your game has more worth than a person, you’re really onto something! Ricca is a side-scrolling 2.5D action game that’ll have the heroine hacking and slashing her way through every fantasy monster under the sun… and more than a few who lurk exclusively in the dark.
Collect gems on your journey to power up Ricca’s skills and even unlock new outfits! Defeat powerful monsters and save the kingdom! All that good stuff! But you’re here for porn, and the game’s no slouch in that department, either. Sure, there are standard visual novel-ish sex scenes where you advance through the text as the action unfolds, but there are also plenty of scenes that take advantage of the 3D environments and allow you to move the camera wherever you want! It’s a whole new way to experience monster sex. Which I know you’ve been searching for, so hey, good for you. I really do believe that Ricca is top-of-the-line in indie hentai, so hurry and give it a try! Satisfaction guaranteed! Economic AND sexual.
Well, that’s going to do it for me. As much as I adore hentai games, it’s The Spooky Time, so I’ve got some horror movies to watch. And potentially reference incessantly in my next article. We’ll see how things pan out. But until then, I think you’re pretty well-stocked on tricky AND treat-y hentai games to tide you over, so I guess I’ll be off, then! You’ll be fine on your own. Wait, what was that heavy breathing noise coming from your closet? It sounded like a masked maniac holding a knife who’s waiting for me to leave so they can murder you or something. Meh, probably just the wind. Have fun with your porn! C:
