That’s not really why we’re here, though.Īccording to the game’s product page on Steam, Subverse features “diverse sex scenes.” Yet as of the game’s early access launch, Subverse only offers boy-girl looping 3D animations with little interactivity. Sure, Subverse’s combat segments are fine, and its open-world galactic travel segments do mirror Mass Effect’s spacefaring mechanics. In a review for the Daily Dot, I wrote that the game doesn’t hold true to its own lofty ambitions. But Studio FOW’s initial offering underwhelms. In theory, Subverse sounds thrilling - adult games are an underserved market, and few titles within that world receive even a fraction of the same budget. Along the way, fans engage in a mixture of ground and space combat missions, read through voice-acted visual novel dialogue, and grind their way toward unlocking 3D sex scenes with their girl of choice. Players take on the role of a rogue Captain commanding an eclectic group of horny, well-endowed women against a puritanical religious government. Late last month, Studio FOW released an early access version of Subverse, a multimillion dollar space opera best described as a Mass Effect porn parody with a dash of South Park and Know Your Meme.
