20 Most Popular Sex Game Genres

Sex games have evolved over the years and with the development of 3D graphics technology, they are now more sophisticated, look like real porn and of course, support a wide variety of story narratives.

Today sex games occupy a niche in the global gaming industry worth billions of dollars per year and for sure, it’s a market that continues to grow. There are various genres supported in this digital adult industry and here are the top 20 genres of sex games that now dominate the digital world:

1. Visual Novel: This genre emphasizes strong narrative and mostly tells romantic, as well as erotic, storylines. It’s basically a blend of romantic and erotic. For players motivated to achieve a personalized sex experience in a digital game, this genre is the best option. One of the most popular Visual Novel sex games is A Wife’s Phone.

2. Dating Simulator: This genre is usually enriched with multiple characters with different personalities. Of course, these characters are surrounded by a unique storyline. There are several examples of sex games in the Dating Simulator genre, including Love of Magic and Cyber Fuck Dolls. This genre emphasizes simulating romantic relationships according to the player’s taste.

3. RPG: This genre blends various traditional game elements with erotic content. It can be said that this is the same as the RPG genre in general but with an emphasis on erotic content. Perhaps the best example of this genre is Monster Girl 1000.

4. Life Simulation: Have you ever played The Sims? If yes, then imagine The Sims with more adult content where you as the player can further explore the sexual activities of your chosen character with other characters.

5. Sports: This is a sports genre that offers sexualized rewards. For example Sexy Soccer where you have to choose a penalty taker, the direction of the kick, and the moment when the kick is released (you release the mouse click to kick). The more goals scored, the more naked women!

6. Puzzles: This genre combines puzzles with the rewards of erotic images or videos. Essentially, players are challenged to keep solving puzzles in exchange for intimate scenes at each stage or at the end of the game. Hot Puzzle by Gamcore is a popular puzzle sex game.

7. Adventure: This genre focuses on characters with explorative missions that require navigating the environment, solving puzzles, and facing enemies, with an erotic character reward at the end. Usually, this genre is flavored with comedic elements, as you can see in Oppaimon – A New Adventure.

8. Hentai: This is a typical Japanese genre with the basic theme usually revolving around teenage school girls or pretty girls being sexually assaulted by monsters. Hentai is by far the most popular sex game genre.

9. Sandbox: This is an open-world genre that offers the ultimate freedom for players to do anything with the character of their choice. Cult of Corruption is the best example.

10. Erotic Horror: As the name suggests, this genre combines creepy and erotic elements. Usually, games in the erotic horror genre are dark with an erotic element here and there. Erotical Night, Animetica, and Captured by Dark Elves: Arachna’s Return are probably the best-selling erotic horror sex games of all time.

11. Management: Here you function as a manager with a company that sells sex services. It’s a genre like FIFA Manager but with the main mission being the provision of sex services. The Void Club Management by Gamcore is an example of a management genre sex game.

12. Card Games: This is a genre of card games with lewd elements as the prize. BilliCard and TF Card Battle are two of the best examples.

13. Fetish: This is a genre that accommodates a wide variety of known fetishes, for example, BBW, BDSM, and furry. If you’re a fetish enthusiast, you won’t want to miss Fetish Locator Week 3 or Hornstown.

14. Erotic Visual Novel RPG: This is the RPG genre but with what can be called the narrative depth of a visual novel. So your characters will be developed in intimate encounters or scenes. Hentai Bliss RPG 2 is a popular example of this genre.

15. Virtual Reality: This is a genre with highly realistic interactions between the player and their chosen character. Using a VR headset, the experience can be very real and personalized. Virtual Date with Rachel is a very popular VR sex game.

16. Fighting: This genre is unique in that it combines one-on-one combat with elements of sex. For example, Fighting of Ecstasy where you play a monster who fights against female heroes, defeats them, and does whatever you want.

17. Text-based: It is a genre that uses text to provide the narrative and world of the game, e.g. interaction realized by text commands, choices, and puzzles. The main focus is narrative, plot, and character development. For those who are creative, this is the best genre. Gamcore provides a variety of text-based games, the most popular of which are Syri and Nyrean Huntress.

18. Interactive Sex Toys: This genre is a bit tricky because it synchronizes sex toys that we’re familiar with in the real world with the unique experiences that each character gets in the game. An example of a popular game in this genre is The Roommates 5: A Container Full of Sex Toys.

19. Arcade: This genre challenges the players to be agile in controlling. Each level does not last long but there is a significant increase in difficulty at each level. Gamcore provides several very interesting arcade games, namely Cum of the Dead, Shifumi with Nadine, and Charm Point Part One.

20. Parody: And we have come to the end of this article. The parody genre, as the name suggests, mimics popular game genres but with a comedic twist and of course raunchy scenes. Waifu Academy is the best-selling parody sex game to date.

These are the 20 most popular sex game genres. Have you tried playing at least one of them?
