Abyssal Lust

Editorial Meh

Abyssal Lust had promise — players praise the sex scenes themselves as genuinely well-crafted — but the game is effectively abandoned and hobbled by aggressive paywalling that locks even basic content (including scenes with the protagonist's girlfriend) behind a Patreon tier. The developer has publicly announced putting the game on indefinite pause to focus on a new project, marking the second abandoned game from this creator; community consensus is deeply skeptical that a third project will fare better. Beyond the abandonment, reviewers consistently criticize the core experience: bloated filler dialogue, minimal meaningful choices despite sandbox promises, reused character assets, and wooden character expressions that make scenes feel more like reading than playing. What remains is a technically competent but creatively hollow shell — expensive to access, unlikely to be completed, and not compelling enough in its current form to justify either wait or investment.
