Of course, video games will still be a prominent part of what we do, but we’re hoping this will give us the freedom to do even more. So, we’d like to introduce TwosomesUP! A project focusing on lighthearted and honest recommendations for any and all things we love. And after a bit of a break, we’ve come to the conclusion that in order to do what we truly want to do, we’d have to build something new from the ground up. Whether that’s on video games, food, movies, and everything in between. It took us all of a few minutes to agree that no voices was the way to go.ĪugFor a while now, we’ve been trying to figure out the best way to share our thoughts. Thankfully there is an option to turn off the voices and just have a “boopy” text sound instead. I will say the dialogue for this game can get pretty cringe pretty fast, and the voice acting honestly only makes that more apparent. How great would it be if eventually they even added male characters to date as well? Or DLC that gender swapped the current cast? That would be super fun! You start out HuniePop by choosing your character’s gender and while being either male or female doesn’t affect the game a whole lot, it was a nice touch. The game could function completely normal without any of it. The game is also available with all the naughty bits removed so that’s a pretty good indication of how sexy stuff is really only given in specific measured doses throughout the story. It’s not front and center and you have to work to earn it. So, basically the sex and nudity is treated like a reward system. The girls will remove clothing the more the gauge fills and once it is totally filled the screen will go black and you will unlock 1-3 pictures.Īs your relationship progresses the ladies will send you pictures via text as well, which as you might have guessed end up pretty lewd the more they like and trust you. The “sex scene” puzzles are similar to a date puzzle in that you still have to make matches of three or more pieces, but in this case the girls have no piece preference and you are timed with a “love gauge” that fills or drains based on how fast you are at making matches. Making matches with her favorite tokens will increase her affection and move you on down to woo town until the girls decide it’s time to take things to the next level back at your place. You spend the majority of the game chatting with the girls in various locations and going on dates via match three puzzle challenges. Combined with that fantastically colorful artwork and it wasn’t hard to tell we would be in for a fun time with this game! Anyway I digress.Ī puzzle centric dating sim seemed like a pretty interesting match-up. Insert a sad face emoji and violins here if you like… I know. Seriously, those sales get us every time and are a big contributor to our ever growing backlog of unplayed games. We purchased HuniePop on Steam a few years ago, more than likely from one of those irresistible Steam sales. There is a singular instance of tentacles rolling onto the scene, but I mean what anime style game would be complete without them right? Even still it’s a case of one of the girls sending you a sexy photo of herself. There are a few non-human girls to add to your dating pool, but they look almost completely humanoid aside from maybe blue skin or cat ears. It’s also fairly romanticized since it is with a partner you are in a romantic relationship with. The sex is all consensual and relatively kink free. So, Level 2 to err on the side of caution. The sex is implied rather than directly shown and it really amounts to just a few nude still shots per lady, but there is full nudity, dirty talk, and semen (if your main character is male). We ultimately landed on a Level 2 rating since it was really kind of smack in the middle of Level 1 and 2. HuniePop is definitely one of the more “mild” games we’ve reviewed for the Backlog After Dark feature so far and surprisingly that made it harder to properly categorize. The artwork is phenomenal, the Bejeweled-like puzzles have difficulty scaling to keep you interested, and not to be forgotten of course, the unique cast of sexy, eligible bachelorettes this whole game hinges upon! With that said, did all these ingredients make up a recipe for love or did all that puzzle poppin’ fizzle out faster than a cut-rate fourth of July fireworks show? On the other hand though it’s the sum of HuniePop’s parts that make it an epic must-play. On the surface HuniePop seems like your average anime dating sim and really when you boil it down that’s exactly what it is. Snuggle on the couch with your significant other and prepare yourself for a puzzle game with a naughty twist. Alright folks, close the curtains and put the kids to bed.
