Instead you can continue to interact with (and touch!) her in real time, tied to a real time calendar, so different events will pop up on the days they’re supposed to. Cleverly, her behaviour will change to match your likes and dislikes. If you scroll further down this list you’ll find the original Gal*Gun, but since I originally wrote this, two further Gal*Gun games have been released – Double Peace and more recently Gal*Gun 2. These stay firmly in the rail-shooting-against-hordes-of-giddy-girls-vying-for-your-attention genre. It’s a shame this has no western release – mainly because, techically speaking it’s very solid is a genuinely interesting game (many RPG’s could learn from it) and is a triumph in elegant design. For the sake of this list I went for Love Death 3. You can play in first and third-person views to explore the world.

A volleyball game that basically just uses a couple of buttons? Rubbish right? Wrong. It was very well handled, intuitive and excellent fun. Likewise, the relationship building aspect (success in which affects your on court performance) was also subtly handled and proved very compelling. Perhaps even more deplorable is your ability to, if you so wish, beat the crap out of the girls and spray them with mystery liquid. As sexy games go it’s firmly in the ‘sexy’ category, but definitely not in the ‘quality’ category. Basically, you’re on an island with a whole load of other girls. An island where you have to fight a whole bunch of robots and stuff. Mechanically, this is pretty good and a very fun beat em up – but here’s the thing– you have a partner in the game, another girl. This girl also happens to be a super weapon. Their raging teenage hormones mean they’re utterly powerless to resist charging at him, giggling and demented – demanding to be taken into the deepest recesses of the school library for some excessive heavy petting.As RPG’s go it’s actually not that great – meandering dialogue that doesn’t really go anywhere and, though conceptually, the design is pretty great, it’s all disappointingly menu-driven. While Double Peace if perhaps seen as the favourite among fans, Gal*Gun 2 is particularly interesting as it ups the visual ante somewhat, is available on Switch and, crucially is also one of the few sexy games playable in VR if you’re so inclined. The decisions you make throughout the game will affect which direction you take along with a pretty outrageous twist. The question is, how do you think you get your super weapon to work? How do you make her more powerful? By totally getting it on with her, that’s how. If you want you can even change their poses, raise their legs and arms (they don’t seem to like this either) which is terribly creepy in an utterly objectifying kind-of way.

Weirdly you can manipulate the shape of their character models whenever you like, changing their costumes and breast size of course. But you don’t want to know about the pros of this as a stand alone TCG do you? You’re here for the sexy – and it’s here that things certainly get interesting.If every there was a game that made that headset worthwhile then this is is. Nothing beats DokiDoki mode in VR. Nothing. You can buy it here.

This stand out feature alone warrants caution. The game itself? Well, it’s a surprisingly ‘deep’ 3D anime girl model editor. You can change almost any and every aspect you’d like, to create your perfect girl – before talking to her, manipulating her, watching her dance for you I’m sure you get the picture. The Special Edition of this game even has a pair of panties in the box – because… you know… why not. You're a big tiddie cowgirl in some seedy bar. There's only one thing to do. Bounce various milk containers on your boobs I’m going to use the ‘but… but… it’s actually a really great game’ defence here, as I frantically rub away at my Vita like some kind of sex-starved lunatic hobo, who’s stumbled upon an old copy of playboy at the side of a railway. I can’t even begin to tell you what it’s all about, not being able to read Japanese and being only able to tolerate it for about half an hour.Hmmm. In truth Doki Doki is much more tame than people would have you believe – although the mere concept itself is one that should sit uncomfortably with even the most ardent self-confessed perverts. Nothing wrong with this of course. There’s even less wrong with one of the game’s main features – the fact that as they fight, their clothes get ripped apart until they’re fighting in nothing more than their delicate skimpies. I have a pretty high tolerance for terrible games but I make an exception for this one – I’m not going to beat around the bush, this is absolute garbage.

To begin with you have to court her – there’s a choice of three girls you can go for – and there’s a fairly rpg-like feel to the experience. You can build stats, go on dates and see if you can walk her home. Once you’re with the girl of your choice (triggered by a mutual confession of your interest in each other) the game changes up – and gets even more involving. Unlike Visual Novels – there’s no titillating CG reward.I... It seems to work now... I had the impression it was based on the keyboard layout that was used because it worked on another computer with a different physical layout. On my gaming desktop, with an AZERTY keyboard, I have two layouts set up: one for French and one for UK (other games that don't allow keyboard mapping required such a setting). It is your role, as a fine upstanding citizen of the underworld, to reform these naughty, naughty girls in the only way you know how – by spanking and otherwise massaging them. SO. What’s a boy to do? Enter some pretty decent rail-gun gameplay – where instead of bullets you’re shooting love to a) keep the girls you don’t want at bay and b) score hits on the girls you want.
