A way to browse Adult Only games.

Can we get a certain section or some type of filter option to view the games that are marked Adult Only. Maybe add an Adult Only best sellers section and new release section. Unless I'm missing it the only way I can see what games that are Adult Only are by curators.

To be clear I'm not talking about the setting in the user settings for adult settings. I am able to view adult games and they do show up in the store with the other games. I'm looking for a way to look at only the adult games.

search for the specific tag you're interested in, if it's nudity then the nudity tag will give you a majority of the adult only games you're probably looking for.

The thing about the nudity tag or the sexual content tag is you still get games that aren't marked as adult only. I'll have to use them in the meantime but I still think it would be nice to add an actual filter for them specifically.

I don't think Steam is the place for porn. But if they insist then yes, make a different section.

As said you can search from tags but I always thought that these games should be in a differnet part of the store not lumped together with a gate "that does nothing" to get through to see them. But there should be a better way to "only" look at adult or nudity if that is what you want and no other games especially those that have been wrongfully tagged.

Not sure you realize but they have been amoung the top selling genre since they've been allowed on Steam so I guess almost everyone and that also depends on what you classify as "pron games".

Does adult games necessarily mean pornography? I did not know that.

From the preferences page:

Adult Only Sexual Content
Tick this box if you are okay seeing games that contains sexual content that is explicit or graphic and is intended for adults only.

So yes, it's porn. You're thinking of the General mature, Violence and Gore, and Nudity and Sexual categories.

@OP: since there's already an Adult Only Sexual content flag developers are bound by contract to set if they publish this on Steam, it would be nice if we could use that same flag as a store filter.

Thats part of the problem. there are adult games and there are porn ones and steam doesn't seem to make the distinction. While I don't mind adult games, I don't think steam is the place for porn.

I wouldn't say all adult only games are just porn. There are games marked adult only that have more gameplay than erotic content and the nudity is light. Sometimes just bare breasts and no sexual acts at all. The Deep Space Waifu games come to mind here. You're actually getting a decent shmup with some naughty pictures mixed in. Games like The Witcher 3 has more sexual situations than some of these games and that's not considered porn and isn't labeled adult only. I'm not saying it should be. Just using it as an example.
