Adult visual novels (AVN) are some of the most widely-loved games in the entire sex gaming sphere.
Maybe it’s because we all enjoyed those ‘Choose Your Own Adventure‘ stories as a kid. Well, AVNs are similar. Except considerably hotter… and you certainly wouldn’t want your kid reading them at bedtime.
If you haven’t played an xxx visual novel, the formula is simple. It’s a type of interactive game that combines narrative storytelling with explicit adult content. Adult visual novels feature sizzling hot sex animations, text-based dialogue, and choices you make along the way that shape the direction of the story.
Some AVNs are ‘wholesome’ and emotionally deep. Others are strictly One-Fap-And-Done.
Below, we walk you through our list of the top-rated adult visual novels in 2023. These are titles that command huge followings on crowdfunded platforms like Patreon. While you can find thousands of VNs, the pool of NSFW titles is much smaller. The pool of NSFW visual novels that are actually good is even smaller still.
But we won’t just list the best visual novel porn games. We’ll show you where to stay up-to-date with the hottest new releases, including some extremely talented developers to follow. We’ll also look at the different sub-genres and types of visual novels. Which should you play? What are the key differences?
So, buckle up (or should we say, unbuckle?), and let’s take a look at the hottest adult visual novels in 2023.
What Are The Best Visual Novel Porn Games?
The 11 top visual novel porn games in 2023 are listed below:
- Being a DIK
- Acting Lessons
- City of Broken Dreamers
- Leap of Faith
- Halfway House
- WVM
- Once In A Lifetime
- Eternum
- Milfy City
- Harem Hotel
- Harem Heroes (or Hentai Heroes)
We’ve chosen these adult visual novels based on their number of active players, total downloads (or plays), critical acclaim and combined user ratings across respected platforms such as Itch.io and Steam. We’ve also considered factors such as the number of monthly subscribers on Patreon, and the overall impact of the novels within their respective genres.
Let’s take a look at each of these popular AVNs in closer detail:
1. Being a DIK
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1126320/Being_a_DIK__Season_1/
Being a DIK is a highly-acclaimed visual novel porn game developed by DrPinkCake. It is considered by many to be the standard bearer of AVNs. Released in 2019 to ‘overwhelmingly positive’ reviews on Steam, the game is your VIP ticket into the wild and lewd underbelly of college life.
Here’s one of the things you’ll hear about this game time and time again: “Came for the fap, stayed for the story“.
Oh yes, it’s true.
It’s rare for a NSFW visual novel to balance mature content and beautifully animated sex scenes with a narrative that does such a good job of pulling you in. While the game is a little slow off the mark, it doesn’t take long to draw you in with its richly developed characters and pitch-perfect progression.
To start, you are placed in the shoes of a college freshman navigating a chaotic world of lust, laughter, and highly-strung drama. Prepare to be tossed into an uncensored blend of bawdy humor and real-world dilemmas that’ll have you howling with laughter and pondering your own moral compass. Being a DIK currently has two seasons to work through, each containing a selection of episodes.
Season 1 contains 4 episodes with 361 animated scenes and over 8000 images. You can expect around 8-12 hours of game-time. By the time you’re finished, you’ll have a whole new take on the visual porn novel genre. This is a very high bar that previous few AVNs have come close to achieving.
If you like porn novels, you need to play this game. Period.
Being a DIK is available to play on both PC or Mac. However, the Mac version is only available through DrPinkCake’s Patreon page. Season 1 costs $13.99 on Steam.
2. Acting Lessons
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1045520/Acting_Lessons/
Acting Lessons is another highly-regarded adult visual novel by the erotica maestro DrPinkCake. It doesn’t have as many sex scenes as Being a DIK, but the story is just as well structured and you’ll be coming back to the game multiple times for the different endings and story-paths.
The game revolves around the life of a guy who, after enduring a series of personal tragedies, decides to start anew by taking acting lessons. His goal? To express himself authentically and open his heart again to the possibilities of love… and lust.
This isn’t the type of in-your-face lewd gaming experience that you’ll find from some of the more sexualised titles in our list. It’s actually pretty emotional. Wholesome, if you will. The graphics are good, but it’s the substance that carries Acting Lessons.
Fans of DrPinkCake’s previous work, Being a DIK, will find familiar elements of humor, engaging dialogue, and realistic settings. Acting Lessons goes just as deep with emotional content and character development that makes a mockery of many contemporary AVNs.
The playing time is around 5-8 hours, with more than 5000 images and 217 animations. You can pick up the game in a bundle deal with Being a DIK (via Steam or Patreon), which is a no-brainer if you have yet to experience either title. Acting Lessons can be downloaded on Windows, Mac or SteamOS + Linux for $9.99.
3. City of Broken Dreamers
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1358250/City_of_Broken_Dreamers_Book_One/
City of Broken Dreamers is a free-to-play adult visual novel set in the neon-lit streets of Los Angeles in 2042.
This cyberpunk-style visual novel, developed by PhillyGames and launched in 2020, plunges you into a futuristic Los Angeles teeming with danger, intrigue, and a handful of extremely beautiful babes. Forget the glamorous, shiny LA you know—welcome to a city filled with secrets, where the line between man and machine blurs, and your role as a bounty hunter for hire takes you in to some dark and twisted places.
You have a hidden anger stat that directly affects your interactions with the NPCs in City of Broken Dreamers. It will affect the way that you approach women, and the way they react to you. In a game world where every decision matters… you’re going to want to replay the entire game multiple times. Not just for the sex scenes.
Book One is broken in to 7 chapters, containing a total of 5300 renders and 274 full animations. The game is driven by its strong storyline which stands on its own, regardless of any lewd content. But if you’re looking for the sex scenes, don’t worry, there’s plenty of lewd content to enjoy. After each sex scene is unlocked, it gets added to your scene replay theatre so you can watch it back.
City of Broken Dreamers is one of the most visually stunning AVNs on our list. This is an erotic novel with a dark, dirty edge. The game costs $9.99 and is available on Windows, MacOS, or SteamOS + Linux. There’s also a Patreon page, which is highly recommended for unlocking DLCs and further chapters.
4. Leap of Faith
https://driftygames.itch.io/leap-of-faith
Leap of Faith is an emotion-packed adult visual novel developed by DriftyGames, released in 2020.
The story is based around a group of friends trying to ‘find themselves’ as they move through their 20s. As the main character, you’ve spent the last two years wondering why your girlfriend decided to leave you out of the blue. Time has healed and you’ve finally managed to move on, and that’s where the action picks up with 6 different girls to meet, each with a different story to offer. What follows is an emotionally charged journey, full of romance, chance encounters and yes — steamy full nudity and sex scenes.
You can use the typical VN choice menus to advance the story in a number of ways, but you’ll also have your virtual phone at hand, helping to send the story off in some unexpected directions. As a result, Leap of Faith feels more interactive and immersive than the average porn novel.
Leap of Faith is another AVN that confounds the genre by offering non-lewd scenes that are just as memorable as the sexual content. There are 12,500 static renders in total, plus over 85,000 animated frames in full HD.
The game is available for $10.99 on Windows, MacOS or SteamOS + Linux. You can also download a free demo of Chapters 1 to 4 via the DriftyGames Itch page. Future DLCs will be available through Steam, GOG or Patreon.
5. Halfway House
https://azrd79.itch.io/halfway-house
Halfway House is an adult visual novel released in 2019 by indie developer, AZ. The game is divided in to a series of episodes, with the latest episode (number 10) landing in May 2023.
The story drops you into the shoes of a young man whose troubled life has taken a detour. Having spent four years in juvenile detention, you’ve just been released on a six month probation. But you’ll be spending that time in, you guessed it… a halfway house.
This is no ordinary halfway house. The characters you’ll meet are from rich and varied walks of life, and it just so happens that they are beautiful, too. Who’d have guessed it?! From tough and self-assured Ashley, to ‘mother figure’ Samantha, owner of the house. You’ll develop a meaningful connection with each of the five main ladies, and there’ll be some romantic sparks along the way.
Admittedly, the earlier episodes of Halfway House are better if you’re focused on the sex scenes, but don’t be surprised if the story pulls you in and keeps you hooked.
Halfway House is available on a ‘pay what you want’ basis via Itch. The game is compatible with PC, Mac, Linux and Android devices.
6. WVM
https://www.patreon.com/Braindrop
WVM is a free-to-play adult visual novel developed by Braindrop.
You are the top basketball pick in the country, and every college wants a piece of you. Unfortunately for those colleges, you’ve chosen to stay loyal to your best friend Shauna and girlfriend Jamie — by sticking it out at a lesser school. As the game kicks off, it doesn’t take long to notice that every woman around campus has heard about you. You’re clearly a desirable guy, and that brings many advantages…
Thankfully, Jamie, the fun-loving girlfriend, is only too happy for you to bang other chicks. She even encourages the idea! And that’s exactly what you’ll be doing for most of the game. There’s cheerleaders, classmates, teachers and even family members. It feels like you’re going to fuck and chuck an entire campus.
There’s certainly no shortage of sex scenes in WVM.
While the animations can be a little stilted, the women are all beautifully depicted, right down to the freckles on their faces. If there’s one thing this game is missing… it’s sound. Some audio would help take this porn novel to the next level, and really bring the explicit sexual graphics to life.
You can play 6 chapters (or days) from WVM completely free. By subscribing on Patreon, you’ll get access to Days 7, 8 and any future releases. The game is available on PC and Android.
7. Once In A Lifetime
https://caribdis.itch.io/once-in-a-lifetime
Once In A Lifetime is a choice-based visual novel packed full of romance, mystery and hardcore sex scenes. Developed by Caribdis, the love and care that has gone in to this story goes far beyond what we would expect from a typical NSFW game. Come for the porn, stay for the story? You betcha.
The story is set in Mistbury where you live what seems like a normal life with your family. But it’s about to be violently shaken as you embark on an adventure full of mystery mansions, dark prisons and a web full of beauties just waiting to be seduced.
Once In A Lifetime is built on the Ren’py engine and contains 6500 renders with 160 different animations. There are multiple endings to explore, and the choices you make along the way will have a direct impact on the fate of each girl.
The game doesn’t hold back on mature content. There’s masturbation, oral, vaginal and anal sex. The story adds to the eroticism of each encounter, rather than distracting from it — a trait that sets apart Caribdis as one of the very best AVN creators in the space.
8. Eternum
https://caribdis.itch.io/eternum
Eternum is a futuristic visual novel porn game. It is the latest title from Carabdis, still in development as of June 2023, but with thousands of existing renders and animations that you can enjoy.
The story starts with you and your best friend heading to Kredon, a city known for its excellent schools… and a dark secret. The futuristic world of Kredon is obsessed with ETERNUM, a virtual reality MMORPG that has blurred the lines between reality and fantasy. The game uses a neural implant to simulate all five senses, making it feel completely indistinguishable from real-life. Soon you can’t get enough of it…
Inside the twisted world of ETERNUM… there’s a whole lot of plotting and fucking. You’ll meet shady characters, conspiracy theorists and a raft of horny cyber babes. Similar to Once In A Lifetime, Eternum’s story is strong enough to carry any ‘quiet’ moments between the sex scenes. It’s funny in places, wild in others, and rich with plot twists that break the mood of your typical adult visual novel formula.
Eternum is available on a ‘pay what you want’ model via Itch. It is compatible with PC, Mac or Android. Be sure to check the Carabdis Patreon page for regular updates and brand new chapters. With 4607 paying subscribers, this developer has amassed quite the following. Very impressive!
9. Milfy City
https://www.patreon.com/icstor
Milfy City is a visual novel style dating sim by ICSTOR. The game is famous for its taboo subject-matter, with a storyline that involves screwing as many mature ladies as possible. Not even your own family is safe…
You take up the role of a young student who finds himself in the office of a hot mature therapist at school. She talks him through a humiliating experience with a teacher that happened the previous day. Basically, you asked out a teacher in front of your peers and she rejected you. Your revenge for this life-changing moment is to fuck your way through the city’s MILF population.
Released in 2018, Milfy City’s gameplay is a combination of rich dialogue and multiple choice progression with point and click scenes accessed via the interactive map. The overall aim of the game is, of course, to sleep with as many MILFs as you can. But to do this you will need to build relationships and choose the right actions at the right time.
With high quality graphics, plenty of mini-games, and various secret scenes to unlock, Milfy City has hours of replay value, even if it doesn’t quite have the powerful story or narrative of other games in our list.
Milfy City is available on PC or Mac. It can be played in-browser for free on sites like Gamcore or Games of Desire. You can also support the title on Patreon for exclusive content and early access to new releases.
10. Harem Hotel
https://runeygames.itch.io/harem-hotel
Harem Hotel is an adult visual novel by RuneyGames that was first released in 2018.
The plot puts you in the shoes of an average Joe who inherits his grandfather’s run-down hotel. Your task is to transform this dilapidated establishment into a bustling hotel. There’s a catch though… you’ll only be inviting female tenants. Once you’ve got these babes booked in, it’s your job to truly get to know each girl. And ultimately to get in their pants.
From Lin, the humble elf maid, to Kali, the nerd with family issues, each girl has a distinct back-story and reason for being in your humble establishment. But you’ll have to choose your actions wisely if you want to impress them.
HH is more than just an erotic visual novel. It has a myriad of choices that influence stats, unlockable scenes based on various factors, and X-rated easter eggs to discover. In fact, some of the scenes can be missed completely on the first play-through as you’ll need the right combination of stats to access them.
Harem Hotel boasts over 980 unique events and more than 30,000 HD images. The art style is cartoony at times, in keeping with other harem-themed games. The game is available on a ‘pay what you want’ basis. It can be downloaded on PC, Mac, or Android.
11. Harem Heroes (or Hentai Heroes)
https://www.nutaku.net/games/harem-heroes/
Harem Heroes (also known as Hentai Heroes) is a hybrid visual novel porn game that focuses heavily on sexual content. It has elements of an RPG, where you can create your own harem (of horny hentai maidens) and level up your stats to compete against other users.
As you can see from our list, there are various types of adult visual novels. Some are heavily focused on the narrative, storyline and emotional depth. Others are stories tacked on to sex scene after sex scene after sex scene. These 18+ based titles are known as ‘Nukige‘ games, and Harem Heroes certainly ticks the box of Nukige. You’re never far away from the next XXX scene.
Your job in Harem Heroes is to build up a harem of manga girls in a universe where just about anything that breathes is up for a good time. The game is littered with pop culture references and lewd missions. There are 669 hentai babes to meet and seduce in total.
As you’d expect, the artwork in Harem Heroes is distinctly hentai. It’s colourful, brash and full of massive curves, which is basically the calling card of developer Kinkoid. This is the same developer responsible for harem building games like Gay Harem, Hentai Clicker and Comix Harem. These titles are known for their ‘grind’, and less so for their emotional depth.
Harem Heroes is ideal if you’re looking for a NSFW gaming experience that isn’t going to require much thought or attention. It’s mindlessly addictive. It’s also free to play via Nutaku, and works in any browser on any device.

Fans of adult visual novels are divided between those who prioritise the storyline, and those who want to see as much uncensored action as possible.

Some of the top-rated sex VNs you can pick up on Steam include:
- FreshWomen
- Treasure of Nadia
- Lust Academy
- Fetish Locator Week One
- Being a DIK
- Acting Lessons
Renpy.org
Renpy.org is more of a tool than a platform. Ren’Py is a visual novel engine that’s used by thousands of creators from around the world to create interactive stories, including the majority of popular visual novel porn games.
The reason we recommend this site is for the comprehensive Ren’py games list that archives a huge number of visual novels dating back to 2005. You can search by year, name, gameplay style or system requirements.
Games that contain NSFW content are tagged ‘Ages 18+‘. While there are some hidden gems in the archives, be prepared to sort through a LOT of simple or bugged titles. YMMV.
VNDB
VNDB (Visual Novel Database) is just that — a massive collection of visual novels compiled in to a database that you can search with ease.
To access the NSFW titles:
- Select ‘Tags’ from the left-hand sidebar
- Under ‘Popular’ select ‘Sexual Content’
This will reveal a mega list of adult visual novels, with 23,351 titles as of June 2023.
Those of you who are picky will delight in the filtering options. You can search the remaining games by activity (from ball sucking to BDSM) or participants (futanari, lesbian, gay, monster sex, etc) or even the structure of the game itself. Looking for AVNs with early sex content? No problem. Background moans? No problem. Choice of when to ejaculate? Yep, there’s a whole category for that too.
VNDB is truly God-tier when it comes to diving down visual porn novel rabbit holes. You could be lost here for months. Even better, there’s a comprehensive rating system so you can see which titles are tickling other gamers’ pickles. Enjoy!
Adult Visual Novels vs Porn Games: What’s The Difference?
Adult Visual Novels are considered porn games, but they don’t usually contain the same amount of sexual content as a title that is marketed specifically as a porn game.
At its core, an Adult Visual Novel is a type of interactive game featuring mostly static graphics, most often using anime-style art or occasionally live-action stills. They employ text and voice acting (if available) to tell a story and are heavily narrative-focused, letting players explore different story paths based on the choices they make.
The adult part? Well, that comes in the form of erotic content – tastefully integrated into the story. The sexual scenes in AVNs usually serve the narrative, playing a role in character development or influencing the storyline. This doesn’t mean they skimp on explicitness, but rather, the erotic scenes have a context beyond pure sexual gratification.
On the other hand, porn games can come in a wide variety of formats – from RPGs to puzzle games, and yes, visual novels too. The primary focus of these games is sexual content. The narrative, if there is one, often takes a backseat to the explicit content.
If you take a look at the user reviews of the best adult visual novels, you’ll see a common response: “Came for the sex, stayed for the story.” This is one of the key differences between adult visual novels and traditional porn games.
Most Common Types of Adult Visual Novels
Adult Visual Novels come in different flavors. Let’s take a whirlwind tour through some of the most common types, and what sets them apart:
Eroge
‘Eroge’ is shorthand for ‘erotic game’. Eroge Visual Novels is just an alternate way of saying adult visual novel. The sexual scenes in these games usually serve the narrative, contributing to the plot or character development. These are essentially your standard adult visual novels, referred to in a different way.
Hentai
‘Hentai’ is a term used outside of Japan to describe explicit or pornographic animations and comics, with a direct nod to those from Japan. In the context of visual novels, ‘Hentai Visual Novels’ are essentially adult visual novels with Japanese-style artwork. You can instantly recognise these titles by their larger-than-life animated cartoon porn.
Everything is exaggerated, colourful and, err… bouncy…
The sexual scenes in Hentai porn games are typically much more frequent and explicit than what you’d find in a standard Eroge Visual Novel.
Some examples of popular hentai visual novels include:
- Harem Heroes
- Goodbye Eternity
- Lucky Paradox
- Harem Hotel
Bishoujo
‘Bishoujo’ translates to ‘pretty girl’ in Japanese. These visual novels are targeted at straight guys and revolve around the pursuit and seduction of attractive female characters. While a bishoujo visual novel may include sexual content, the main focus is typically on romance or emotional connection.
Our list contains several examples of titles that would be considered bishoujo VNs:
- Being a DIK
- Acting Lessons
- Leap of Faith
Otome
The ‘Otome’ genre, meaning ‘maiden’ in Japanese, is a mirror image of the Bishoujo genre. These games are targeted at straight females and feature a female protagonist who can choose from several male (or occasionally female) characters to date. The majority of Otome games are focused on romance rather than sex, but many do still contain explicit content.
Some examples of popular Otome adult visual novels include:
- 14 Days With You
- Something’s Wrong With Sunny Day Jack
- Cute Demon Crashers
Nukige
‘Nukige’ games, from the Japanese term ‘nugu’, meaning ‘to strip’, are games where the main focus is sexual content. The storylines take a backseat to the xxx content. These games are all about the explicit scenes and are typically more sexually graphic than other types of AVNs.
The majority of the visual porn novels you see advertised on big tube sites, like Pornhub, will fall under the category of nukige. Any banner or popup that dares you “Try not to cum!” — Yep, it’s gonna be a nukige game.
The reason for this is simple: sex sells.
If you’re looking for straight-up nukige VNs, the best sites to find games are Nutaku and EroGames.
Nakige
‘Nakige’, meaning ‘crying game’, is a genre of games that are designed to make you cry. These games have deeply emotional storylines that often deal with heavy themes.
If you are new to the genre, you might think: “How the hell is an adult visual novel going to make me cry?” Well, go and read the user reviews for games like Leap of Faith, where men who came to fap… end up shedding tears instead!
Needless to say, adult nakige VNs are rare to find.
Kinetic Novels
Kinetic Novels are a subgenre of visual novels that offer no choices or branches. The story is linear, and the focus is on experiencing the narrative as it unfolds.
Some examples of popular adult kinetic novels include:
- Prince of Suburbia
- Perseverance
- After Passion
RPG Visual Novel Hybrids
RPG Visual Novels are a blend of sexual role-playing games and visual novels. They typically feature RPG game mechanics like stat building, battles, or exploration alongside the narrative-driven gameplay of visual novels.
The adult content in these games can serve the narrative or be a reward for achieving certain goals or winning battles. Purist fans of adult visual novels are likely to turn their noses up at the concept of a RPG Visual Novel, as the story often suffers as a result of the focus on more interactive gameplay.
Titles like Harem Heroes, Hentai Clicker and Gay Harem are all loosely based around the RPG Visual Novel hybrid. You can find many of these games on platforms like Nutaku or EroGames.
Some other popular adult RPG visual novels include:
- Adventurer Trainer
- Haremon
- Loren The Amazon Princess
Can I Play Visual Novel Sex Games on Mobile?
Yes, you can play visual novel sex games on mobile devices.
However, mobile compatibility will vary from game to game. The total number of AVNs available to you will depend on whether you are using an Android or iOS device.
Do AVNs Work On Mobile?
Yes.
Many adult visual novels are available on mobile platforms, especially if they’re developed using engines like Ren’Py that natively support mobile platforms. And thankfully that’s most of them!
However, the total number of mobile VNs is not as high as the number available to PC users. This is due to design limitations and content restrictions, especially on the App Store.
Sexy Visual Novels For Android vs iOS
For access to adult visual novels, Android is much better than iOS.
While you can download third-party mobile porn games on Android, it’s not possible to download adult games on iOS.
As a result, you have to play them in the browser instead.
Several of the games in our list come with native Android downloads (APKs) — effectively bypassing the adult content restrictions on Google Play. WVM, Eternum and Harem Hotel all have Android downloads, meaning they can be played on your Android phone or tablet with minimum fuss.
Can I Play Ren’Py Visual Novels On Mobile?
Yes.
Ren’Py, a popular engine for creating visual novels, does support Android, iOS, and even Kindle devices, although developers might need to make some adjustments for the game to run optimally on these platforms.
This makes Ren’Py developed games more likely to have a mobile version, but it’s ultimately up to the game developers whether they choose to release a mobile version.
That wraps up our coverage of the best visual novel porn games for 2023. We can almost guarantee that we’ll have missed some of your favorites – so let us know which games deserve a mention. Thanks for reading!
