My biggest fear is dying and someone finding my apron or purse overflowing with smut.
The struggle is real...

I usually keep my notes on my phone. But then, pretty much everyone that knows me also knows I write smut. So I get that going for me.

I haven't seen it listed here... but I may have missed it... one of my biggest gripes with these games...

Financial Distress

This trope comes in two forms, the male protagonist version, and the female protagonist version.

For the lucky Male protagonist, his work life is awesome! His jobs will usually have one or more cock hungry hotties that he works with, or have a large pool of hottie female customers that come through, also cock hungry. Though innocent at first, he will accidentally get spied on while in the changing room, or in the shower. Possibly in food service something liquid will get spilled on him, and he'll be required to get undressed down to his always super tight boxer briefs...Insert MONSTER COCK trope here. If it's a technology job, all encounters will be with the dimmest of women who shouldn't even be allowed to operate a coffee pot, let alone a computer, or some other form of technology. If he is working at a school, it's usually as a tutor to only hot women, or he's a custodian, and spends a lot of time cleaning up after hours, always around the female locker rooms, or the rooms where inevitably multiple student/teacher or teacher/teacher relationships are going on. Lastly, for the lucky male protagonist, who needs to make money, his job could simply be a quick button press on the screen because he works from home(never available to female MCs).... money made, and on to sex scenes with other hottie females elsewhere. Life is good, all praise the glass ceiling!

For the unfortunate Female protagonist... work life isn't nearly so enjoyable. In most cases the female protagonist really needs THIS job. Usually it's the only job available, or one of very few, all eventually demeaning jobs, that must be done. The character almost always has no option to find more/different work, or move somewhere else(because she just moved to Rape Town unknowingly). The job almost always involves a uniform change, usually without a female locker room, or bathroom(just get changed in my office!). It's easily accessible to prying eyes, or has hidden cameras and two way mirrors. There are no lockers, so options of storing say, extra pairs of panties, or swimsuits, is never an option. Unlike the lucky male protagonist, female jobs are typically never also staffed by other hot women. If there is a female co worker, she is usually also a rapist/bad sexual encounter, waiting to happen, and IT WILL HAPPEN. If she is lucky, she will have one milquetoast male co-worker, or possibly even a single gentleman co-worker, but he is in the minority, as the vast majority of bosses, supervisors, and customers are all dirty, monster cock, rapists, JUST WAITING... for this cock hungry slut(she actually may not be a cock hungry slut YET, but they don't ever think that way) to just start swallowing all their cocks, hopefully at once, and if they're REALLY lucky, while her shitty, small penis, no job, boyfriend, watches. If there are other jobs available, usually the female protagonist is forced by means out of her control, to move to more demeaning jobs. All modeling/photo jobs must invoke a sense of sexual and personal freedom and good feelings, enabling further photos shoots to go further and push boundaries. Any clothing changes required by the jobs will be in the skimpiest thing possible, obviously while still adhering to OSHA standards. If you let anyone else wash your clothes, inevitably the clothes will shrink, or under garments will get lost, and you'll be required to work without them, or get punished physically for not having a "proper uniform". On the rare rare instance that the boss/supervisor is either a female, or not a male rapist, she/he is completely oblivious/uncaring to what actually happens to his employees while they work. If you're raped at work, it's most likely accidental penis insertion into one or more orafices, but DID THE WORK GET DONE?!?!? Usually these jobs also require the woman to work late at night, and/or miss other important things in their life, like time with their significant other/spouse/boyfriend... and usually lead to feelings of loneliness or inadequacy, which results in an eventually breaking down of all of her morals. If while working she is molested by students or children.... well, they're young and they're exploring their sexuality. Encouraging young rapists to develop further along the rapist path is the only way to push forward... or you just give up and let them do whatever they want, because you really need the money. Also, most female jobs almost always lead to blackmail situations. Remember that time you got groped while working, but didn't physically assault the molester... well, it's on camera now, and instead of explaining to your boyfriend what happened and why, and getting a new job. You let him put it in your butt, because your boyfriend doesn't and/or you're saving your pussy for your boyfriend. Also, any sexual encounters at work, almost always lead to a sexual awakening, feeling of empowerment, and loss of feelings towards the significant other. Who knew getting raped could feel so good, I want to do this more.




Uhmmmm..... like 95% of the games on this website. I'd probably have an easier time listing games where cash is not an issue. It could be like an easter egg hunt, find the game where the female MC doesn't lose some kind of morality, sanity, or purity, while working at her job.

Dad's A Dick

Examples:

Loser Schlub: The Father in Milfy City, Paul in My Legacy

Selfish Prick: Father in Incest Story, Father in The Tyrant, Father in Incest Adventure

The Claudius: David in Au-Pair Innocence, Eric in Big Brother (borderline, but as long term boyfriend he counts), Father in My New Life, Father in The Artifact

And I'm sure I'm missing a ton.
I have to point out here that 'Eric' is not a good example as he combines many game features an tropes. The 'Dick' is simply just an obstacle in the way as in 'The Artefact' from ICCreations.

'The Dick' is a simple 'Cock Block'. as long as he is around you don't get any (MC 'step - father' and Scientist Antagonist in Artefact). Can also be female as in 'Tangled Up'.

'The Eric' is an 'NTR Hell Rack' which combines:

'NTR Haunt' (You don't get any because he / she does, all the time) - BB, Superpowered (if you slutify them all), Pay the Piper

'Dooms Day Clock' (Pushing the game towards the 'Game Over') - The Takeover, BB,
Which is not to be confused with a well defined time frame as:
'Life Ends after Summer Break' (Which just gives you a finite number of iterations to play the game) - Lab Rats, Glassix (first seven weeks)

'Russian Grind Leech' (If there is a stat he will force you to reduce it or alternatively 'tick' the clock) - BB

The way he is implemented is the 'Alpha Male Cancer' (unlike its female counterparts he needs to be removed to be of any use, unlike the 'Obi was Pervert' former Alpha Male mentor who trades his wisdom for girl panties - as in - The Senior, Summer Break.

Oh! I just realized another trope!

The neglected, sex deprived/depraved wife!

Examples: Megan (Corruption), Mom from Summertime Saga... Actually... Most moms and MILFs in most WEGs.
I present as her opposite 'The Ice Queen'. She doesn't hate you, that would require human emotion and unlike your " tsundere 'Roomate' " there is no hidden agenda, love or deeper nature. If she considers sex to be a part of her life you and said part do not overlap. She can either be a 'Pious Housewife' (the Psychologist) who loves you with the spiritual side of her massive hearts or a 'Go Getter' who just keeps you around for your existential benefits, like being the father to her kickass daughter (Teacher's Pets).

Your definition of Eric is spot on.
IMO he accumulated so many trope that it broke my ,very dim at that point, suspension of disbelief: you could see he was only a device the dev placed to make the game harder and more painful IMO.

I think a major reason for the "Stairway to heaven" grind has to do with the way these games are made/developed/financed. That is to say, the games are developed and released incrementally, and creating a "realistic" sex scene would involve renders and animations covering almost every step on the stairway. That would take a substantial amount of time, substantially multiplied by the number of potential partners in the game. And many devs are financing through Patreon, getting money monthly. Those patrons are paying to see steady progress. If the initial release took six months to develop, and subsequent releases 3-4 months each, people will get impatient. So you get the "stairway", when IRL the stairway is more of an escalator.

The Venus de MILFo:
Mom, Auntie and most of the moms and 30-something and 40-something women in town seem to have been genetically engineered or carefully grown in a 23rd century biolab somewhere:
1. Alluring eyes
2. Flawless skin
3. High cheekbones
4. Lush dick sucking lips
5. Perfect hair and makeup
6. D to DDD+ breasts with large nipples and little sag
7. Zero stretch marks despite having up to 4+ kids who are very close in age
8. A wasp waist and washboard abs
9. A butt that would make a Kardashian jealous
10. Long lean or full, toned thighs and calves
11. A tight, neatly groomed or fully shaved pubic region--see 7 above
12. Clothing that tends to accentuate their Ultimate Male Fantasy Fucktoy Figure

In spite of being insanely, ludicrously hot, they are either:
A. Widowed and haven't been with a man since;
B. Unhappily married to a schlub or beta dad who doesn't satisfy them;
C. Unhappily married to a tyrannical, abusive asshole;
D. Single and obsessed with teenage cock

To be fair, in most games they all wind up obsessed with the MTC [Magic Teenage Cock] that will give them the massive squirting multiple orgasms they're craving but would otherwise never get.

Speaking of body types in games. The Apartment spends a lot of time bagging on the appearance of Pauline, who actually is a fairly attractive plus size woman imo, so much so I almost want to mod the game so the MC compliments her and targets her first.

I find that I don't like many MC's in most Porn Games and look for ways to give them "bad endings". The worse the ending the better.

Anotha one!

Every girl is a heavy sleeper

No matter who it is, EVERY girl in porn games sleeps like a fucking rock!

You can molest her, fondle her, turn her over, poke her, kiss her, rub yo dick in her face, put it in her mouth (even fuck it!), finger her pussy, cum all over her, fuck her in the ass, you name it! She won't EVER wake up.

When night falls it's almost like rapist paradise.

And you know what's even better? She won't notice a thing in the morning! Cool right???

I'm telling you man! She won't notice being all sticky or smelling like cum, she won't feel a funny taste on her mouth, she won't feel sore on her ass, NOTHING! What did I tell you? Rapist paradise!

Oh, THIS particular girl isn't a heavy sleeper? Don't worry, you can always (easilly) get some sleeping pills and spike her drink/food! Sometimes you can even buy them in your local market WITHOUT ANY PRESCRIPTION!

I'm telling you again, RAPIST PARADISE!​

Generosity and open-mindness lies in the women nature

Females know no jealousy of their man whatsoever. Even if they left their husbands/boyfriends because they were cheated on it cease to matter if it come to the protagonist. He may fuck their friends, sisters, mothers etc. and they will be happy to participate with threesomes and foursomes with them. It's every women dream to be bottom bitch in beta-male loser harem and share him with other chicks.

Almost every porn-game follow this trope. Recent Harem Hotel even have fuckin yandere character who doesn't mind sharing. It's too much.

Good one... personally I'd like to see more polyamory in these Harem games... but people are so afraid to be "cucked" that it's not gonna be something that happens often

More often than not I've seen it being explained. Drugs or they're unconscious from say losing a battle, or they're sleeping normally and you're playing a "don't wake her up" minigame which is a genre of it's own, and they often notice something being wrong in the morning like "why does my mouth taste strange".
I agree if you don't make it into a minigame and the girl acts as if nothing happened the dev could try harder.

I have one

The hidden treasure

this MC has due to curcimstances no social contact with anyone outside of maybe work and hardly or doesn't leave the house
for some contrived reason suddenly a woman comes to live with him and inmediatly falls for him

he's the perfect boyfriend just waiting around for someone to find him unlike the neurotic mess he's supposed to be

this is of course perfect wish fulfillment for people who do that same thing IRL

examples: my life with mary, my legacy, the babysitter, my new roommate, also I'm pretty sure house arrest is a half parody of this since the MC is exactly the sort of cranky bastard you'd expect someone who would just sit at home al day (to be fair he has an actual reason why he can't leave the house) and yet the girl still falls for him

Quick one:

Eighteen:
View attachment 34955
I mean, doesn't she LOOK eighteen?

All females in the game, no matter how young they may look are at least 18. This is because when a girl enters her first year of high school she is officially 18 years old. She remains 18 until her graduation in 3-4 years. This means it's ok to hit on both Freshmen and Seniors. It's totally cool bro, she's 18. This is also why an 18 year old MC can have a fuckable younger sister who is also, you guessed it, 18.

Games that use this trope: Teacher's Pets, Big Brother, My New Life, The Artifact, Incest Story, Glassix, Sol Valley High
Honestly, of all the stuff I've come across here this is the thing that disturbs me the most. Even when they legitimately could be considered physically 18 (and uh, let's be honest, there are times when everybody knows they are ..not), they're clearly mentally retarded. There's no other explanation for cases like D in DMD.

It's pretty uncomfortable actually.

Every Day is a Safe Day

This couldn't go bad in any way whatsoever
In the world of porn games, an unplanned pregnancy is not a concern whatsoever. Whether it's your mother, little sister, or some random slutty friend you mind controlled with ancient Mayan magic, feel free to nut inside her to your hearts content. In fact, feel free to cum inside all the females in your life several times a day without fear because she will never get pregnant. If on the rare chance she does in fact comment on the risk of pregnancy, she will wave it off with a comment that it's "a safe day" and thus safe from an unexpected surprise. Ignore the fact that it's been a safe day every day for a month.


Assume the Position

Perfectly Normal Behavior
So you were lucky enough to stumble upon a perfectly primed woman, bent over and waiting for some fine young lad to just go to town. Maybe she was waiting for her husband or boyfriend to get to work. But that's okay because you're here now and won't hesitate for a second to have sex with an unsuspecting woman. Feel free to hump her to completion, because she won't actually look behind her to see who's entering her until you've finished. Once she's found out the local creep/her nephew has just dropped dork in her, she'll respond with annoyance, but then quickly agree to a casual sexual relationship with the main character.
