Gaming Site EROGAMES Reveals Global Popularity of Japanese Erotic Games
“Eroge” online sex games continue to evolve and entice new audiences.
Among the wide selection of online sex games, the “eroge” genre maintains its reign as a popular favorite in the gaming community.
This Japanese category of erotic video games first arrived in the United States in the 1980s and has been evolving in both Western and Eastern markets ever since. Today many Western gamers will refer to “eroge” as hentai games.
However, the genre’s roots can be traced as far back as the 17th century to Japan’s Edo period, which lasted from 1603 to1868.
According to the Museum of Sex, this era saw a “creative explosion of erotic imagery” and took place in the geographic region Edo, now known as Tokyo. Edo was at the heart of the new sex and art culture, in part due to its large population and booming legal brothel district, the Yoshiwara.
Manga and anime animations are examples of how the period’s eroticism remains influential in Japanese and Western popular culture. The rise of online sex games sites like EROGAMES [NSFW] also demonstrates how new audiences are still eager to embrace the Japanese-inspired visual arts style.
Enter EROGAMES
If you take a peek at the offerings at EROGAMES, you’ll not only notice a wide selection of erotic games. You’ll also see adult gameplay options available in several different languages, including English, Russian, Chinese, French, Japanese, and Spanish.
This speaks to the ongoing and growing interest worldwide in what was once considered a niche market. What was once embraced by one country is taking hold elsewhere and being adapted to satisfy various sexual fantasies and preferences.
Notably, the “eroge” or hentai gaming genre often goes beyond seeker to fulfill baser sexual interests. Storytelling and visual novels act as compelling features that feed the erotic mind as well.
Although many of the hentai titles are centered around scantily clad young women and straight storylines, games like “Gay Harem” cater to other tastes. Eroge is even being taken into our new technological era with sex robot-inspired titles like “Android Hentai.” [NSFW]
