14 Best Porn Games on Steam: What’s Hot in the Adult-Only Section?

Updated on:

Steam used to have a strict ban on adult content, meaning any porn game would receive tan immediate banhammer. However, parent-company Valve lifted this rule in 2018, and it’s since become one of my favorite playgrounds for NSFW gaming.

Yep, adult developers have royally bum-rushed this platform. We can now get stuck in to hundreds of mature titles featuring full nudity, uncensored sex scenes and some hilariously tacked-on 18+ DLC releases (from games desperate to appeal to both mainstream and adult gamers).

The easiest way to scope out Steam’s best adult titles is to head over to the most played‘ charts on SteamDB.

This will give a snapshot of the top trending porn games, but it doesn’t provide much context beyond what other gamers are fapping to. Fear not, I’ve got a list of classics for your NSFW Steam bucket list.

What Are the Best Adult Games on Steam?

Best Steam porn games

The adult games I play on Steam are “meatier” than those on free sites like Nutaku or EroGames.

As a general rule, Steam titles have more substance: richer storylines, better graphics and less bugs. Makes sense, right? Any game that gets published on Steam has to meet a certain entry bar, while there is no such requirement for random game sites spamming HTML5 smut.

Don’t get me wrong: I’m not saying there’s a lack of terrible adult games on Steam. God, no. The majority I stumble across are still unshined, crumbling dog turds.

But at the higher end of the market, and with the exception of a few random Patreon-funded indie projects, Steam is home to the best-looking NSFW games in the business.

I’ve picked out 14 classics below. At the top of my list sits a title where the overall review score – “overwhelmingly positive” – still doesn’t do justice to how damn good it is.

1. Being a DIK

Being a DIK Mac game

Developed and published by the indie dev DrPinkCake, Being a DIK is an adult visual novel that follows the journey of a young, attractive man from a low-income family who moves away to college. He’s thrust into freshman life (and freshman girls), persuaded to join various fraternities, and exposed to a world of drugs, sex, and alcohol. 

But this isn’t your typical college-themed movie-esque storyline. The characters have depth, and the undertones shift in sometimes unexpected ways, keeping you more than interested. It’s a fantastic mix of emotion and naked naughtiness.

Frankly, Being a DIK boasts some of the best-looking (read: realistic) renders we’ve seen developed in Daz3d. Plus, there are tons of animations, making the spicy content even more enjoyable.

Production is where this game really stands out from the crowd though. There are bucketloads of things to do — from making choices that have actual consequences to free-roam events to mini-games. Even the background music and sound effects add to the saucy atmosphere.

The one downside? You have to repeat the mini-games until you complete them correctly, and some of them are quite challenging.

You can purchase Being a DIK: Season 1 for $13.99 or go all out and by the bundle, Being a DIK: Season 1 & 2 + Acting Lessons, for $41.77, saving 5%. The series is available to play on both Windows and macOS.

2. HuniePop

Huniepop dating simulator

HuniePop began life as Kickstarter campaign requesting $20,000 but ended up raising a whopping $53,000! Many chalked this up to the adage “sex sells,” but that isn’t the long and short of it. 

Granted, this dating sim doesn’t take any major risks. However, the gorgeous artwork and addictive match-three puzzles form an unmissable setup. Think Candy Crush, but make it sexy. 

The game revolves around you and the fact you can’t get a date (it’s possibly an overdone trope but it works here). Kyu, the love fairy, takes pity on you, providing wooing tactics to use on the women around the town. 

The Candy Crush-esque puzzles come into play on the dates you inevitably take the women on, with every symbol match filling the dating meter. And after a few dates, you’ll make it to the bedroom where, after successfully filling the meter, you’re awarded with a raunchy photo.

If you’re after animated sex scenes, you won’t find it here — the bedroom antics start and end with static images. However, it’s a fun one if you only have half an hour to spare and fancy seeing some boobs in the process. 

This unique sim-cum-puzzle game is available for $9.99 on Windows, Linux, and Mac.

3. Mirror

Mirror porn steam game

Mirror is the best-rated NSFW game on Steam with an overwhelmingly positive 8.54 user rating.

Developed by KAGAMI WORKS, Mirror is an erotic visual novel with match-three puzzle minigames to keep you interested as you click through each of the eight ladies’ stories. And yes, your choices matter — but only sometimes. 

In this world, lies a magic mirror, which relates to the destiny of the beauties you’ll meet. If you get said mirror, you’ll enter their world and go on adventures raunchier than you’d find in a typical visual novel.

All the girls are voice acted (in Japanese) and each one has their unique styles. From a dragon lady to a priestess to a zombie queen, there’s something for every taste.

Like HuniePop, there aren’t animated sex scenes, but the illustrations (which move ever so slightly) are certainly enough to get you hot under the collar! Couple that with the narration and you’re on to a winner.

Mirror is available on Windows or macOS computers using older than 10.15 Catalina. You can buy the standalone game or buy the DLCs in a bundle to save 15%. 

There are several expansion packs and sequels to the original, including:

  • Mirror Cosplay Album
  • Mirror Maker
  • Mirror: The Lost Shards
  • Mirror: Song of the Maidens
  • Mirror: Enchanting Reflections

4. Treasure of Nadia

Treasure of Nadia porn RPG

Most famed for Lust Epidemic, NLT Media released Treasure of Nadia as a follow-up game in February 2022, and its gained exceptional popularity since.

You are a young man attempting to follow in your late father’s footsteps and take the metaphorical treasure hunter crown. Not only will you traverse untapped locations, but you’ll have some outrageous trouser-raising encounters with the lovely ladies you meet along the way. 

NLT has done a great job of matching the game type to the plot — treasure hunting demands free roam, and that’s exactly what you get with this open-world NSFW fun fest.

The story is captivating, giving off mysterious vibes. But that isn’t what will keep you hooked; the music, sound effects, and voice-acted, fully animated sex scenes up the ante.

Treasure of Nadia is one for the MILF-, bust-, and harem-lovers who own a Windows PC and fancy some booty-calling, fivesome-having gaming time. 

5. City of Broken Dreamers

City of Broken Dreamers

Like cyberpunk and sci-fi mixed with erotica? You will absolutely adore City of Broken Dreamers, the much-loved NSFW visual novel developed by Phillygames.

Set in a dystopian future, a genetic defection syndrome has affected the human population, with cases increasing by the day. And you, the bounty hunter, must find a potentially infected missing girl who may or may not need some *wink* persuasion *wink*. 

With graphics that take the visual novel genre to all-new heights, this game leaves nothing to the imagination. 3D animated scenes dominate the playthrough, and transhumanism takes center stage. 

The character archetypes are slightly cliched, but the interactions and realistic responses mean that takes a backseat. You’ll be far too focused on the 100% uncensored bodies, beautifully brought to life in some red-hot sexual encounters that will keep you coming back for multiple play-throughs.

City of Broken Dreamers is compatible with Windows, Linux, and older macOS computers.

6. Cloud Meadow

Cloud Meadow porn game on Steam

Farming simulator; RPG; boobed monsters; combine them and you get Cloud Meadow. This Team-Nimbus-developed erotic game is out as an early access version, with the final product expected (and eagerly awaited) in 2025.

Cloverton is a place filled with sexy creatures chomping at the bit to fulfil your sexual fantasies and reveal mysteries that aid your quest.

Boasting classic RPG game mechanics, the adult content hits you in the face from the word go. Your eyes will be well and truly locked on the monsters’ chests — yep, they all have boobs in an array of sizes.

And these saucy characters are ready for you to breed to create new species. But the best part? You get a front row seat to all the climax-inducing monster breeding as it happens.

Cloud Meadow is a boob-filled haven waiting for Windows users to explore. It’s available for $19.99.

7. Coming Out On Top

Coming out on top, NSFW Steam Game

Coming Out On Top began its journey on Kickstarter, just like Huniepop, receiving much more funding than requested. Obscurasoft’s title has satisfied a distinct gap in the visual novel market — gay male protagonists.

The story centers around Mark Matthews, a college senior who has just come out as gay and is ready to live his life outside the closet. He meets an array of chiseled, model-esque men that you’re guaranteed to want to see without clothes. 

In keeping with standard visual novels, the gameplay is mainly ready dialogue. Initially, conversations happen primarily with Penny and Ian, Mark’s roommates, but once you pursue one of the hunks, you’ll access a bunch of new content. 

But to be rewarded with scenes depicting everything from first kisses to eye-popping male-on-male encounters, you need to play your cards right. The choices you make affect the outcomes along the way

It stands out on our list for its realism. We aren’t talking about the graphics though. Instead, we’re referring to the realistic nature of the screwing and fucking around, which provide an unabashed look at the scenarios experienced by newly out young men (albeit with a more humorous undertone). 

Regardless of your sexuality, you’ll still enjoy helping Mark on his pursuit to pleasure. But you need to be up for some surprisingly difficult playthroughs; making the wrong choices can see you romance absolutely nobody!

Coming Out On Top is a sharp, well-written visual novel featuring down-to-earth characters. It’s available for Windows, Mac, and Linux users.

8. Custom Order Maid 3D 2

Custom Order Maid 2

Custom Order Maid 3D 2 has set the standard for 3D hentai games with an overwhelming number of DLCs, always-there support, and exceptional design quality. Originally developed by KISS in Japanese only, the English version has delighted fans of the genre in the west.

The story starts in the Empire Club, a luxury gentleman’s bar with women to serve the customers, sort of like the girlie bars of Hong Kong but far more upmarket. Unfortunately, the club is in huge debt when our hero takes it on from his uncle and it’s your mission to re-build this once elite super sex club and restore it to its former glory.

If you were looking for a NSFW Steam game that focuses primarily on sex acts with short story snippets, you’ll love it. There are all kinds of scenes, from vanilla love making to hardcore BDSM. The only categories it doesn’t cater for is group sex and harem.

The graphics are gorgeous, sporting the familiar hentai art style that’s simply drool-worthy. And the developer has gone all-in on the customization. It’s excellent; you can edit almost every part of the character to suit your preferences.

Custom Order Maid 3D 2 is available for Windows users and supports VR. Currently, there are 39 related DLCs — will you become a super fan and play them all? Well, you can, but it’ll set you back a small fortune if you do. The original game alone is priced over $30!

9. Monster Girl Island

Monster Girl Island on Steam

If you don’t want to spend any cash but want a satisfying (in more ways than one) play session, Monster Girl Island is an adult adventure title that should be high on your bucket list.

Developed by a single creator, Redamz, this erotic adventure game looks and feels like it was crafted by a team of numerous devs — it’s that good.

The NSFW game invites you to explore a remote island populated by feminine monsters, many of whom have backstories and individual questlines. And naturally, they’re all rampant with the desire to fuck you. 

The primary purpose? Seduction and sex. But it’s packed with rideable creatures and mini-games to plump up the gameplay and surpass its competitors. 

Many adult games have a distinct lewd energy (if you know, you know), but there’s a decided lack of that in Monster Girl Island. Instead, you’ll find yourself in a beautifully serene landscape featuring gentle music that just happens to be inhabited by sexy, scantily clad monster girls. 

The gameplay emphasizes dialogue and exploration, with an expansive map to traverse and a plethora of characters to encounter. 

Its richness immediately captivates you, drawing you in straight from the load screen. However, there’s only the prologue to enjoy at the moment on Steam, which is purportedly only one-third of the gameplay.  Thus, many areas of the island are inaccessible as Redamz works on creating the rest of the no-doubt ground-breaking game for our fellow erotic gamers.

The current version of Monster Girl Island is completely free-to-play your hands on and is compatible with Windows machines. Grab it while you can!

10. Koikatsu Party

Koikatsu party adult game on Steam

Steam dubs Koikatsu Party the “Ultimate Anime Character Maker,” and that isn’t far off. It’s a 3D, entirely customizable romance simulator developed by Illusion, a Japanese studio.

Now, when we say “entirely customizable,” we mean it — there are more than 300 adjustable settings, including breast size, height, hair, pose, eyebrow angle, eye shape, and mouth expression. You have complete control, allowing you to create the girl of your dreams.

Once you’ve finished crafting your dream waifu, you can head to the Events menu and choose “Have Sex” to unlock another interface that gives you the freedom to hand select your fap content. You pick everything from the location to her experience level to her preferences and beyond. 

In lesbian and masturbation modes, you’re merely an observer. But in standard mode, you control the raunchy action for an entirely interactive sexual encounter.

If you’re looking for the infamous story mode, you’ll be disappointed. Following a decision made by Valve (Steam’s owner), Illusion was prevented from publishing the story section on the platform. 

This personalization-heavy sex sim is available for $59.99. Koikatsu Party is a Windows exclusive title.

11. Nekopara

Nekopara on Steam

Developed by NEKO WORKs and published by Sekai Project, Nekopara catapults you into a pet fetish anime world where dom/sub relationships rule. Consider it a sapient cat harem for you to enjoy.

The visual novel is part of a longer series that allows you to deepen the relationships with catgirls and see everything they have to offer. But be warned — it isn’t for everyone. It’s a moege (a.k.a., a game designed to be humorous and cute) intended for a specific audience; if you aren’t into doms treating their subs like pets, you won’t get on with Nekopara

As is typical for this subgenre of NSFW visual novels, the characters are flat and far from being well-rounded. Each catgirl has one unique personality trait, while the rest of her nature is consumed by her devotion for you. 

The graphics, however, are worth every cent. All the gorgeous girls are voice-acted, beautifully drawn, and move across the screen with effortless fluidity. This is somewhat uncommon for visual novels, which is why we needed to find a place for Nekopara on our list. 

If you’re a Windows user with a penchant for cute sapient catgirls, you can download and get stuck in for just $9.99 — or choose the bundle to save 10% on all 6 items.

12. Leap of Faith

Leap of Faith

Defined as an adventure-based visual novel, Leap of Faith is perhaps the least overtly lewd on this list and one of a few non-hentai VNs. But don’t worry, there’s still enough sexiness to find its way into Steam’s “Adult Only” section (and this list, of course). 

The story launches you into a world where you’ve decided to move forward with your life after your girlfriend left. And it will clearly be easier than you thought to make that happen; before long, you’ve got six ravishing ladies to choose from. 

Yes, the plot is simple. But each love interest boasts a unique storyline for you to learn, and the DriftyGames (the devs) treat you to 12,500 static renders, 85,000 HD animated frames, and a whopping 69,000 lines of dialogue. And the animated scenes do include plenty of sexual content. 

The game diverts from the straightforward visual novel format by giving you a phone that lets you interact with your sexy lovers. Interestingly, we found the texting mechanics to be ultra-realistic — you have to wait a while for responses. There’s no instant fuck buddies to be found here!

Graphics-wise, Leap of Faith is stunning. The characters are modeled on real-life human anatomy, giving you a truly authentic feel. If you’ve been searching for a visual novel that will make you feel like you’re really there, this is it. 

Leap of Faith is one of the top NSFW visual novels right now. It’s available on Windows, Linux, Mac and even iOS(!) devices.

13. Amorous

Furry Steam Porn Amorous game

Amorous is a furry dating simulator that plays right into this newfound expressive freedom of the furry fandom. 

Furries have gained social media attention in the last few years as the world becomes more open to accepting people’s fetishes. If you’ve been following the adult gaming scene closely, you’ll have noticed the huge number of furry-based porn games.

The self-proclaimed “free pansexual furry dating simulator” will see you head to Amorous, the in-game club, and get people’s phone numbers. The goal? Date, romance, screw. That’s it in a nutshell — simple, but eye-rollingly satisfying.

Yes, this is one of the weirder sex games on Steam.

A mash up of styles and genres, the gameplay is part visual novel with mini-games and novelty challenges plus a character creator so you can design your own furry persona (or, fursona).

Customization is multi-faceted in this game. You can change fur and accent colors, ears, hair, nose, species, and more to match your standards. While it’s nice to have these options, you’ll barely see your own creation. So, in our opinion, it’s pretty pointless once you exit the design tool.

Regardless, the art is good. It won’t blow your mind, but it’s a step above most dating sims. And you can date nine of these well-drawn furries. From felines and foxes to birds, reptiles and amphibians, there’s a lot of variety in the cast of characters. The game has thousands of lines of dialogue that produce plenty of variation for long term playability.

Amorous is free on Steam and is available to Windows users.

14. FreshWomen

Fresh Women on Steam

To finish off our list we’re bringing you FreshWomen, an erotic adult visual novel where your choices matter. Everything has consequences, but the story focuses on the best parts of life — fun, romance, and sex.

You are a young man on a journey to discover what really happened to his father. However, you get into an accident that erases many of your memories. So, you’re beginning life with a clean slate, moving to a different area to begin college. And, like every freshman on the planet, you’ll meet many girls who are up for a good time.

Unlike traditional visual novels, FreshWomen goes above and beyond to provide a whopping 150 animated scenes and more than 7,000 static images to aid the story and heighten your romantic options. If you are looking for a lot of dirty scenes with different lovely ladies, you’ll never want this one to end.

But the best part? This is only season one! The developer, Oppai-Man, says subsequent seasons will be released as DLCs to continue the story.

FreshWomen is available to play on Windows or Linux. The first season costs $13.99.

What Is Steam’s Policy on Porn Games?

Steam games list

If you tried to find erotic games on Steam before 2018, your efforts would’ve been… less than productive. Valve banned all sexually explicit content and gave little wiggle-room for adult developers.

But oh my, how times have changed…

There days I’m regularly accessing games with everything from static nipple shots to full-blown anal sex.

Nearly all adult content is accepted, bar a couple of exceptions. Games can’t feature real people or be set in a school, regardless of how old the characters may appear. 

Steam prohibits:

  1. Sexually explicit images of real people
  2. Adult content that isn’t appropriately labeled and age-gated

Source: Steam Onboarding

This second point is important because minors also use the platform. Let’s face it: I love playing lewd games, but it’s absolutely for the best that these games aren’t accessible to kids.

Thus, Steam enacted a policy that requires all explicit content to be marked as “adult only,” ensuring it remains an appropriate space for all gamers. Any content marked “adult only” is only accessible if your profile is set up to view mature content, and this (quite rightly) requires age verification.

How Explicit Are the Adult-Only Games on Steam?

The amount of explicit content varies from game to game. Some titles offer still images of scantily clad hentai babes after you successfully complete a puzzle, while others indulge in 100% uncensored, animated sex.

There are 3797 matches for games tagged ‘AdultOnly’ on Steam (as of December 2023), but in practice, this is inflated by titles like Street Fighter 6 — which has the tag, but wouldn’t be considered a sex game.

Although I suppose you could probably rub one out if you wanted…

If you’ve already checked out the adult-only content on Steam, you’ll be struck by the swathes of visual novels; one of the most popular game types in the NSFW category. This is where Steam excels, in my opinion, but it’s not everybody’s taste.

If you can’t find your next smut fix on Steam, I’d suggest you check out one of the platforms with a denser selection of NSFW titles: like Nutaku, EroGames or Itch.


That wraps our list of the top ‘adult-only’ games on Steam. Are there any saucy smash-hits we’ve missed?

Let us know your suggestions and we’ll put them forward for inclusion on next year’s list. Thanks for reading!
