FAQ

  • Q: Is there threesome (3P), anal sex, or yaoi H-scenes in the game?
    A: No. There is no threesome in the game. You can only go as far as one-on-one together in the H-scenes. There is no anal or male homosexuality in full H-scenes, though presumably, anal is occuring when gay sex is seen in the world view.
  • Q: How do you undress?
    A: You can't. The clothing state is determined by traits, relations and the current location.
  • Q: Are there any positions where the male (or female) partner can perform cunillingus (oral sex on a female)?
    A: No.
  • Q: Is there paizuri?
    A: Yes, one of the subpositions of the blowjob scene is paizuri.
  • Q: How do you reach simultaneous climax?
    A: No method has been discovered, or believed to exist. The closest you can get to that, is to lock position and follow your partner's climax with your own.
  • Q: How do I get/give a red bar orgasm?
    A: Characters can only reach red bar orgasm if their partner has above Average skill.

H-Scene Interface

When the active character engages in a H-scene, the view switches to the pictured layout (except in the case of male-on-male relations; see FAQ above.).
A rough example of what H-scenes look like within the game.

The camera controls are described in General Gameplay.

Along the bottom are a row of buttons to start and modify the action:

  • Tissue Icon - Ends the H-scene and returns to world view.
  • Position Icons - Oral, Cowgirl, Doggystyle and Missionary are available to heterosexual couples depending on relationship and personality factors. The Switch button appears only for lesbians and bisexuals, and swaps between active and passive partner in positions.
  • Climax Gauges - The top gauge is the active character's, while the lower gauge is the partner's. When filled with a color, it indicates the level of orgasm the current subposition can cause, from weakest to strongest: blue/green/yellow/red, with red giving the "Ahegao" expression (sticking the tongue out).
  • Climax Icons - Clicking gives the orgasm shown in the gauge; the red left button for the partner, the blue right button for the active character.
  • Subposition Buttons - The numbered buttons will switch to a different subposition. These are blue when the active partner is performing actively, red when passive, and gray and unclickable when a partner is insufficiently horny/aroused.
  • Lock Icon - Locks the partner's current level of orgasm and prevents them from automatically and randomly switching subposition.
  • Mouse Icon - Left-Click changes to a slower set of subpositions, while Right-Click changes to faster subpositions. This changes between blue, red and gray, similar to the subposition buttons.

The number of positions accessible in a heterosexual H-scene is 4 positions with their 4 subpositions for Front Entry, Rear Entry, Girl on Top and Oral (64). The set for lesbian encounters is 4 positions with their 4 subpositions (16), bringing the total number of known positions to 80.

H-Scene Play

The Basics

Room1.png
  1. Bring a character who appears interested to a secluded location, where interruption is unlikely. Propose H through the Interaction menu.
  2. Click on the Mouse button to begin, then select from Subpositions with the numbered buttons and Right-Click and Left-Click on the Mouse button.
  3. Locate the subposition that fills the Climax Gauge with the highest possible color, then click on the associated Climax Button. Remember; the top bar and right button is your active character's, while the bottom bar and left button is your partner's.
  4. Repeat or select from Position and Subposition Buttons as desired.
  5. Click Tissue Icon to exit the H-scene.

Beginning H

As with any other ecchi action, the character you wish to engage in H with must have a level of interest in your character to succeed. "Interest" may be in affection or horniness, reduced by virtue combined with other circumstances such as location and other characters present. At any virtue level, performing in public locations and in front of other characters reduces the success rate of of proposing sex. High enough horniness may exceed virtue restrictions, but higher virtue characters may still terminate a scene when conditions change, such as being witnessed or interrumped by other characters.

Beginning arousal is dependent on all of these factors, and in turn influences how responsive the partner is beginning H and whether they remove their clothes. There are two distinct initial arousal levels:

  • At lowest arousal the partner may appear and sound in pain, and will appear uncomfortable with their partner's orgasms.
  • At maximum arousal, the partner is relaxed and vocalizes freely. They take more pleasure in the act and in their partner's orgasm, including ejaculate in Oral positions. Though full nudity is a sure sign of this level, high virtue characters may retain their clothing depending on location. Maximum virtue characters will only strip at your home or theirs.

The atmosphere music can be a guide to how horny a character is. When any BGM other than the "Sexy" track is playing, then another mood is greater than their horniness, and actions can be taken to reduce that mood or increase horniness. Maximum horniness can be determined from success rates when attempting "talk about sex" or any of the ecchi actions; these will vary from character to character based on type/traits, but remain constant for each individual.

When moving to another location with someone, the room atmosphere can change both character's mood. If passing through an ecchi atmosphere, both characters can become horny, but if passing through a conflict, both can become tense. This is important to note when establishing maximum horniness to prepare for a home visit, as any room activity en route can make or break the mood.

Positions

If your character and your partner are lovers, or visiting at home, then all Position buttons and subpositions will be available. Otherwise, the subpositions of only one position will be available, depending on how you initiated ecchi, "I want to do you", or "I want you to do me". Success at "do you" places the active character in an active position, success at "do me" places the active character in a passive position. Subpositions may also be unavailable if your non-lover partner isn't aroused.

General positions:

  • Front Entry - male dominant, female passive
  • Rear entry - male dominant, female passive
  • Girl on top - male passive, female dominant
  • Oral - male passive, female dominant
  • Lesbian - either partner can be dominant or passive.

These are divided into 4 positions with 4 subpositions of different speed, for a total of 64 heterosexual positions, and 16 lesbian positions (the player can switch his/hers active character between dominant or passive).

Right-clicking the Mouse button progresses to a faster set of subpositions, Left-clicking to a slower set, wrapping around at first and last set. Faster sets also get louder responses of arousal or discomfort from a female character (males are unvoiced in H.)

The color of the Mouse Button and Subposition Buttons indicate how much control each partner has.

  • Blue - The male or dominant lesbian partner has control.
  • Red - The female or passive lesbian partner has control.
  • Gray - Inaccessible; if a partner isn't a lover and isn't aroused, their buttons will gray out until their Climax Gauge fills with a color. If female virgin, their buttons will remain grayed out, as their Climax Gauge will not increase their first time.

Your active character can use any lit button, but an NPC partner may switch at random to any subposition their buttons have access to, egs: if the Subposition buttons are your partner's color, they may shift to any of them, if the Mouse Button is your partner's color, they can shift speed of the subpositions. Typically your partner will choose positions that will maximize their or your Climax Gauge depending on their sexual preference. The Lock Icon will keep your partner from changing positions, but will also keep their Climax Gauge from filling.

In some subpositions, a female partner will begin to talk dirty; these are indicated by slightly flushed cheeks. If she's in ahegao, her cheeks are always flushed, but the subpositions are the same. These subpositions always include their max orgasm, as well as several random subpositions.

After either partner's orgasm, sex can be resumed by Right- or Left-clicking the Mouse Button, or Left-clicking any Subposition button.

Clothes

You cannot take off the clothes during H on either your main character or the other character. The clothed state is determined by the virtue of the character and other conditions, like if the character is at home or in a public space. The only known way to indirectly influance this state is by increasing the hornyness of the character, as explained and described elsewhere. Both the controlled character and the NPC have their own, seperate values. Refer for the minimal requirements to the table below, posted by Illusion.

Undressing
Virtue Might undress
Highest At own home, strong sexual desire
High At own home
Normal Nobody around, strong sexual desire
Low Nobody around
Lowest Anytime

Climax

The colors on the Climax Gauges represent the intensity of climax possible in that sub-position, in increasing order of Blue, Green, Yellow, and Red. An empty bar indicates no climax, and clicking the Climax Icon will have no effect. Each partner's Climax Gauge fills at a rate determined by their Sensitivity, up to a maximum determined by that sub-position, and limited by their Skill:

  • Lowest - Blue
  • Below Average - Green
  • Average - Yellow
  • above Average - Red

Every character has likely two sub-positions per pose in which they can reach their maximum climax. These are default randomly choosen at character creation. In other sub-positions they will receive a less intense climax, or even none at all.

When switching subpositions, a partner who is a lover will retain their highest achieved climax on their Climax Bar. Partners who aren't lovers will be less comfortable with switching using buttons they control, and their gauge will empty and refill, according to the position switched into. If the partner switches, or only your own buttons are used to switch, their gauge will remain at the higher climax level.

If the player doesn't perform any action within 30 seconds after a climax, the game will assume sex is over and the session will end automatically. Ending this way will very likely cause a bad H result.

Ahegao

A typical redbar climax, the highest level, will put a female partner into Ahegao; her tongue will hang out slightly, her vocalization will be constant and less comprehensible (if at all), her cheeks flush and breath quickens, eyes dazed, and she will be less responsive to anything but her own orgasms. A partner will remain in Ahegao until switching to Oral (blowjob) position or when ending the session.

Note that this can only be achieved by creating a character with above Average skill and this skill level cannot be aquired during gameplay (as was the case in Artificial Girl 3).

After climax, if the player plays as the passive character, their partner will continue moving after a few seconds, but if they play as the dominant character and doesn't perform any action, female characters in Ahegao will calm down and breath normality again, after which the normal climax cooldown starts.

Performance and Effect on Gameplay

Depending on the number and quality of orgasms achieved during H, partners may comment on your performance post-H, ranging from anger to complete satisfaction. Achieving maximum performance for normal H appears to only require one red orgasm for the non-player party, and at least one green orgasm for the player. Blowjobs appear to use a different set of criteria, as it is oftentimes not possible for the NPC to climax during one. Girls will also comment on other aspects of how you approach H. She will, for example, take into account how many times you cum inside her.

G-spot

Completely independent from Sensitivity and Skill and preset into the different sub-positions the girls have certain sensitive spots where they start to talk 'dirty', two times in a row and have an increased enthusiastic state. These vary from 0 to a maximum 3. 'Hitting' these spots will not only reduce the likelyhood of switching positions on their initiative, but also increase the chance they will return to these sub-positions. Only girls have these spots and only as not-controlled character. Another effect of this is an increased hornyness during the position and more freedom of action, even when she isn't in a relationship. Although the minimal requirements are currently unknown, the effect of extensive use of this technique seems to contribute to overall value of the session and add the player to a 'favourable partner' list.

Climax Level Effect

The level of climax that you give to your partner might affect affection. It seems like less than yellow will most likely end with an unfavorable result. This means that characters with low skill will not gain affection from doing H. It seems like yellow climax level or higher has the same favorable effect. Giving a red climax doesn't seem to have a greater effect on affection than giving a yellow. The effect on affection may depend the overall result of the scene, meaning that if the scene is evaluated badly the climaxes you have given may not count.

Pleasure vs. Devotion

It seems that depending on whether your partner's preferences are geared towards "Pleasure/Enjoyment" versus "Service/Devotion" there will be different reactions depending on the respective orgasm count. For example, a character with a "Service" preference may appear dejected after having more orgasm than the partner, and need to be cheered up.

There are 5 Different types: Pleasure, Enjoyment, Normal, Service, Devotion. These types combined with your own sexual skill/sensitivities determines how the partner's/your climax bar rises (I.E. Partner who has the "Pleasure" will reach the red bar easier/in many positions if your played character has high sexual skills.), this also means the other way around (I.E. If your partner has the "Devotion" Trait and your played character has high sensitivity you will reach the red bar/in many positions easier). However, your/your partner's horniness must be taken into account as well.

As such, it will be crucial in the rating of sexual acts at home. As to achieve the best (you receiving a kiss from your partner) sexual experience you need to take these into accounts. This does not apply in sexual acts in school as each flag are activated despite your partner's trait, be careful. This could mask an unsatisfied partner but still commenting positively, always check how they are feeling afterwards to see the actual emotion of your partner.

Effect on Affection

Given that NPCs will distinguish good sex from bad, and that in many cases NPCs may be more physically compatible to one another due to skill/sensitivity combinations, it can be inferred that sexual prowess may play a role in impacting the overall state of a relationship, although the specifics are as yet unknown. See the explanation above on pleasure vs devotion.

Oral Sex

Oral sex is evaluated separately, and number of orgasms appears to have no bearing on the total H-scene reaction. If no other position is taken, then the girl will be more pleased the more the male cums, and will not be upset by not cumming herself. Also, girls at maximum horniness before H will show pleasure at swallowing/wearing ejaculate, but will be uncomfortable if less horny. Whether this has any affect on affection is undetermined, but taking the responses as a hint may be safer.

After H Reaction

When you or she end the H scene she will comment on your performance and she may display certain behavior. The following is known:

  • If you satisfied her (i.e. gave her at least one yellow level climax) she may kiss your and/or commend you on your performance.
  • If you made her climax in the red during school (i.e. not at home), she will always end the scene with a comment that it was embarrassing.
  • If you came outside at least once she will most likely comment about that.
  • If you came more than three times inside she will make a special comment on it unless you came at least once outside.
  • If you came more than eight times inside she she will make a different special comment on it unless you came at least once outside.
  • If you came inside she may be shown with cum dripping out of her (press Space to control the camera and stop the game from progressing).
  • If she climaxed at least once and her maximum climax level was less than yellow the H scene tends to end in comments with you having something to learn and similar.
  • If you perform sexual intercourse and also oral in school in one session (keep in mind that this only can be done with your girlfriend) after several orgasms, it will count as if you had many times sex with her. If you ask for more she will tell you that you are a sex addict or something like that.
