Review of the Best Sex Games and Most Realistic Sex Simulators [UPDATED]

Sex simulation games that make virtual sex feel as good as it does in the real world—or maybe even better.

Before we journey into the hot and steamy world of the best games and most realistic sex simulators, we should first visit the rather unnerving uncanny valley.

Conceived by professor Masahiro Mori back in 1970, it wasn’t until 1978 that the term first appeared in print, in Jasia Reichardt’s book Robots: Fact, Fiction, and Prediction.

The uncanny valley is a theory that the closer computer-generated imagery (CGI) or robots resemble real human beings—the more realistic or lifelike they attempt—the more likely they will provoke feelings of unease or disgust.

Sex Simulation Games & Adult PC Games

In the last few years, however, a better understanding of the phenomenon, as well as more advanced technologies, have allowed developers to create the most realistic sex games possible without provoking this disquieting response.

You can find perfect examples here in our list of the best sex games and most realistic sex game simulators. These titles work hard to get close to an illusion of erotic reality without steering players into the eerie uncanny valley.

Today’s best sex simulation games also synch with sex toys. Thanks to Bluetooth technology, you can both watch and feel the erotic action unfold with interactive sex toys from companies like Lovense and Vstroker.

While many of them are adult PC games, we’ve also included our selection of realistic sex games and sex simulators that support Mac, iOS, and Linux.

Best Sex Simulators

Adult World 3D

Here’s a game that says it right on their site: “The Most Realistic 3D Sex!” Surprisingly, Adult World 3D [NSFW] lives up to this claim with high-definition graphics, a wide range of erotic activities, and multiple characters.

The sex simulator that scores points for being as lifelike as possible for a CGI title. It’s PC only, so if you’re an Apple user you may be tempted to switch.

According to the game site: “Some of the finest game designers and computer graphics artists in the world have put their skills to the fore in delivering a game of the most outstanding quality. Each and every fair vixen in the game is rendered with stunning clarity and detail, and it is almost as if you could reach out and touch them.”

Its creators are also behind other visually stunning adult PC games like Dream Sex World [NSFW]—pictured in the article top image—as well as fetish games VirtualLust3D [NSFW] and HentaiSex3D [NSFW].

3DXChat

We’ve talked many times about 3DXChat [NSFW]—including in our lists for Best Sex Games for Women, Best VR Sex Games, and Foot Fetish Games That Will Knock Your Socks Off (to name just three)—but always for really good reasons: it’s just that good. As you can tell, it’s definitely one of our favorite adult PC games.

It’s also a longtime favorite on our best sex games and most realistic sex simulators list. Why? Because its graphics are some of the best, if not the very best, for a massively multiplayer online sex game. The adult PC game also deftly avoids the icy wastes of the uncanny valley by skillfully balancing a borderline-cartoonish style with realistic avatar modeling and physics.

There’s also the fact that 3DXChat [NSFW] is an immense playground open to almost infinite possibilities. Players can appear as realistic, or fantastic, as they choose. Not only can they customize how their avatars look, but they can also build public or private locations and special hookup spots.

3D Sex Villa

Sex simulator 3D SexVilla 2 [NSFW] is another great example of how sophisticated graphics have become in adult PC games. The word “great” here is perhaps an understatement as this realistic sex game boasts levels of realism that simply have to be seen, or played, to be believed.

Unlike 3DXChat, which is an online game, 3D SexVilla 2 is designed to be primarily a single-player experience. But users can share content with other players in the popular Thrixxx social network.

3D SexVilla 2 boasts that its motion graphics simulate realistic physics. The game also allows players to create just about any sexual fantasy. Combined, these features make 3D SexVilla 2 one of the best sex games and most realistic sex simulators available. Alas, thugh, it is only available for PC users.

Cumming to America

In pursuit of realism, there’s nothing wrong with a bit of cheating—not in a sexual sense but rather by using flesh-and-blood people instead of CGI models.

A good example is Life Selector’s catalog [NSFW] of interactive sex simulator games. These “shows” as they’re called, are choose-your-own-action flash sex games featuring real adult performers. You can direct the course of the story, and most importantly, the action.

One of Life Selector’s popular titles is Cumming To America [NSFW], where you are “interviewing” a young woman for US citizenship. While not the deepest of storylines, it perfectly showcases the mechanism of incorporating real people into interactive sex simulator games.

Mirror Life

What better way for Lovense—one of the world’s most innovative and highly respected smart sex tech companies—to explore the erotic possibilities of merging their Bluetooth-enabled products with video game technology than to make their own, fully immersive and wonderfully versatile sex simulator?

Which is precisely what Lovense has done with Mirror Life: a free-to-play test bed built from the ground up to work with their Max 2 app-controlled male masterbator.  Though Mirror Life remains a work-in-progress, if you have a Max 2 then you must, as in right-this-very-minute, try it for yourself and experience the future of interactive erotic gaming.

Sex Emulator 

Fire up this animated 3D simulator and be prepared to lose yourself in its nearly limitless erotic possibilities.  Fun through this sex simulator most assuredly is, the Sex Emulator has more enjoyable tricks up its (virtual) sleeve) to the tune of a whopping four hundred other hot interactive games, adult videos, and more to also check out.

Not only that, but if English isn’t your native tongue you’re in luck as Sex Emulator’s available in five other languages, including French, Spanish, and German; making it not only a rollicking good time but an international delight as well.

Hentai 3D

If Japanese-influenced erotic games make you sit up and say “Hai” then Hentai 3D could be the Windows-supporting sex simulator you’re been waiting for.  It’s unique in that once you’ve created your perfect adult star you can cast them in your very own hentai-inspired and gloriously lifelike explicit productions.

Hentai 3D is also great news if you have a Vstroker as the site is fully compatible, enabling you to see as well as feel the action you’ve directed.

Sex Simulator

As it says in the tin, Sex Simulator [NSFW] is all about offering a hyperrealistic sexual experience—for the amazing price of nothing. That’s right, this totally free-to-play browser game gives a lot but asks nada, zilch, and zero in return.

Not only that, but Sex Simulator doesn’t scrimp on its erotic options, including allowing its users to play and sexually interact with male, female, and trans characters, and within those, users can select everything from their playmate’s maturity to their sexual aggressiveness, or submissiveness, if that rocks your world.

That said, it remains true that you get what you pay for, as Sex Simulator isn’t as well-animated or erotically immersive as many of the other games on our list. 

However, if you’re looking for an affordable, surprisingly customizable sex simulator game, then you may want to give SexSimulator a try.

BDSM Stimulator

Another pleasantly surprising—and quite frankly much needed—sex simulator is BDSM Stimulator [NSFW]. Why surprising? Well, like Sex Simulator, it’s a free-to-play browser title, though it does require players to register to verify their identity. 

But after that, you can whip, cane, or bound your choice of its many characters, and—where things get really interesting—engage with other, real people in multiplayer mode. 

Why is this particular sex simulation game needed? The answer is while a majority of games on our list can be pretty hardcore at times, BDSM Stimulator takes kinky sex to a whole new level. It even proclaims itself as “The World’s Most Extreme Sex Game,” which, compared to our rather extensive BDSM-related experiences, it most definitely is.

Adult Online Play

Adult Online Play [NSFW] has one hundred different sex simulation games, ranging from simple and exciting all the way to outrageously wild—made all the better because each is as realistic as it is erotically engaging.

The fun gets funner because a good selection of its titles are not just free to play but are playable on a good number of portable devices, like tables and smartphones.

Plus, if you like what you can see, you can become a member, unlocking Adult Online Play’s entire catalog of high-quality sex simulation games.

Captain Hardcore

Blast off to unknown, erotic worlds with Captain Hardcore [NSFW], a very tongue-in-cheek game where players may encounter an assortment of alien tongues, not to mention perky cheeks. 

As playful as it is erotically adventurous, Captain Hardcore may still be in development, but what it offers makes it more than makes it worth supporting, like its multi-VR system support, and it’s planned to support all of Lovense’s smart sex toys or the Fleshlight of your choosing.

Captain Hardcore also advertises a wide assortment of game possibilities. Do you like a sexually satisfying guided story, or prefer fooling around in a sky’s-the-limit sandbox mode? Then you are in luck, as those barely scratch the high-tech, chrome-plated surface of what Captain Hardcore has planned for its—and your—future.

Best VR Sex Simulators

Chathouse3D

If you love 3D SexVilla 2, but you are instead looking for a multiplayer experience, you’ll want to try fellow Thrixx title Chathouse3D [NSFW]. It’s listed on our best virtual reality sex games list, but there’s also the option to play it on a PC, no VR headset required.

Viro Playspace

Less a single game and more of a vast, showplace for all sorts of arousingly virtual reality and smart sex toy-supportive experiences, Viro Playspace has about everything for everybody; ranging from hardcore BDSM to LGBTQ+ inclusive games—not to mention a zoo full of furry ones too.

Viro Playspace is all about supporting as much immersive tech as possible; like a host VR rigs such as the HTC Vive,  Value Index, Oculus Rift, and more than forty Bluetooth-equipped sex toys from the likes of Kiiroo Lovense, and WeVibe.

xStoryPlayer

Similar to 3D SexVilla 2, XStoryPlayer [NSFW] (from X Moon Productions) is an offline experience. And like 3DXChat, it supports virtual reality headgear for an immersive and lifelike experience. The sex simulator cements a place on our best sex games list by focusing on high-resolution graphics and eye-popping physics.

That’s because its immersive capabilities make it one of the most realistic sex games, so thank you very much for virtual reality!

As for gameplay, it doesn’t just jump into sex but rather asks users to create a relationship with one of the characters—but once that’s done you can do pretty much whatever you want.

The adult PC game—sorry Mac users—supports HTC Vive and Oculus Rift virtual reality headsets.

VR Love

Slip on your Oculus Quest/Rift, HTC Vive, or Value Index VR headset, charge your Lovense Max or Nora and hang on tight as VRLove proves the only thing better than an ultra-lifelike sex simulation game is a fully immersive and sex tech integrated one from the adult entertainment experts over at VirtualRealPorn.

If you’re an Amarna Miller fan, you can even have her star in your own virtual fantasies—or customize your own character to suit your wildest erotic fantasies.  

City Of Sin 3D

Accurately billed as providing “mind-blowing 3D virtual intimacy,” City Of Sin 3D provides you the choice of sixteen pre-made characters or the option to make your own from an impressively-huge library of skin tones, body-shapes, hair-colors, and more positions than the Kama Sutra to put your creations into!

Available for Windows, City Of Sin 3D steps it up a notch (or two, or three) with its  smooth-as-silk Fleshlight Launch, Flixband, and Stroker for Fleshlight integration.

Dezyred VR

It’s no wonder Dezyred [NSFW] has been on our sex simulation radar since it and its entertainingly arousing titles appeared on the virtual reality adult entertainment scene: it’s a big—and getting bigger—section of immersive, totally explicit games that are a sight to behold and a hoot-and-a-half to play.

Games like Double Trouble [NSFW] and A Day With Bella Rolland [NSFW] are just two of their premium quality sex simulators that are freely available—though, like BDSM Simulation, you’ll need to sign up first.

Part of the VR Bangers network, paying for Dezyred sometimes gives you access to their six other sites, depending on how much you’re willing to pay and if Dezyred is promoting any special offers.

Best Lesbian Sex Simulators

Girlvania

If you love girl-on-girl action, you need to download Girlvania right away! This sex simulator caters exclusively to lesbian fantasies and even includes a legs and feet expansion package for stockings and foot lovers.

Best Gay Sex Simulators

Hurt Me Plenty

On the surface this game is simple: you spank a sexy, beefy fellow. But there is more—so much more—to Hurt Me Plenty [NSFW], and this more is why it definitely deserves a place on our most realistic sex games list.

You see, this is a sex simulator that doesn’t only strive to be an accurate depiction of the reality of BDSM. It also guides the player in proper and responsible play.

It all begins with negotiation, agreeing to a safeword, and the like—and then comes the spanking action. But if you continue after the other character calls out the safeword, the action will abruptly stop and you’ll be presented with the following message: “Your partner is still recovering from the previous player’s abuse and violation of boundaries.” The game will then lock you out of any further action—sometimes for a matter of days.

While it may not be lifelike in its graphics, Hurt Me Plenty’s lesson of the real importance of responsible and consensual BDSM play is one that we desperately need to be seeing more of.

This sex simulator is available to download for Mac, Windows, and Linux.

Trans Pornstar Harem

The importance—and sexual desirability—of inclusiveness is on full display with Trans Pornstar Harem [NSFW]. An exciting, free-to-play erotic title, Trans Pornstar Harem combines the immersiveness of a good RPG game with erotic, no-holds-barred explicitness. It’s guaranteed to turn your nether regions on as much as its carefully constructed mechanics excites your brain.

Trans Pornstar Harem puts you in the loafers of a would-be adult entertainment tycoon who has the enviable task of (ahem) “auditioning” some of the hottest and more willing trans porn stars in the business.

Since it won’t cost you anything but the time it takes to open it on your PC, Mac, smartphone, or tablet, we definitely recommend it to those of you into trans sexuality, RPG games, and especially titles that merge each into an inclusive, entertaining, and sexually exciting sex simulator.

Best Sex Games for Mac

Being a Mac user isn’t always easy when it comes to sex games. Many are PC only. Sure, browser-based sex games are an option, but downloadable sex games have a lot more to offer by their very nature.

That’s why we took the time to share a list of the best sex games for Mac along with their top features. In brief, for Mac users searching for a multiplayer sex game, we recommend trying Yareel [NSFW]. For gay gamers, the best sex games for Mac are the browser-based RPG sex game  Gay Harem [NSFW] and the dating sim Dream Daddy.

One Night Stand

Here’s a question: what exactly qualifies a title for being the most realistic sex game? What is perceived as being realistic? Graphics can be part of it, trying to avoid that uncanny valley another, but what about the story?

That’s why we’re including the sex simulator One Night Stand [NSFW] by Lucy Blundell on our list of the best sex games and most realistic sex simulators. Instead of focusing on sex as pure fantasy, this title plays a mystery game that begins with you waking up next to a stranger after a titular one-night stand.

This sex simulator is an erotic visual novel that supports Windows, Mac iOS, and Linux.

Through a series of on-screen choices, you—as the male protagonist—work to figure out who the woman is and what happened the previous evening. This leads to one of 12 different endings: some good, some not-so-good.

While maybe not a steamy exercise, it’s still recommended for its elegant art style and unique approach to the realities of sex: the morning after.

Waifu Sex Simulator

One of the Internet’s favorite virtual reality hentai games is Waifu Sex Simulator. It was created by Lewd FRAGGY, who calls the VR sex game content “unofficial fan-made work.”

Players can have their pick from more than 1,000 hot models inspired by top anime characters, games, and TV shows. You can also make the scenes interactive by controlling the action with your bare hands or VR controllers. For these reasons, Waifu Sex Simulator is one of the most realistic and best sex simulators around. It also features more than 300 sex animations and high-quality graphics.

For more info on installing the realistic waifu sex simulator, there’s a very useful tutorial posted on Reddit.

The future of realistic sex games and sex simulators

While we are rapidly approaching a time when in the most realistic sex games graphics will become indistinguishable —it’s important to call out another form of the uncanny valley: that it’s time for games to try and approach the less-than-visual realities of sex.

Not that fantasy should be avoided. However, when too many people are engaging in physical pleasure without a clear idea of the emotional, social, and physical realities of what can come with it, developers of adult PC games need to take responsibility to become part of the solution and not the problem.

Hopefully, because of public demand as well as game designers understanding their responsibilities, we’ll be seeing realistic sex games that aren’t just pretty to look at but will provide a deeper, more nuanced, and even educational approach to the realities of sex.
