When I first booted up Amorous, I was expecting something cheeky, short, and roughly written, but where else would I set my bar for a free game? Needless to say, it didn’t take very long for Amorous to completely spoil me with what a dating sim/visual novel could be.

The story surrounding you, the main character, is simple enough. You’re between jobs and looking to get out and do something with yourself. Your step-brother, Coby, has recently been dumped and offers to take you out on the town to his favorite club, Amorous. Once there, you have a choice between several characters to chat up and get phone numbers from. Overall, the story is involving and the writing is good. A lot of what really makes this game great is the depth of character, but we’ll cover that shortly.

Of the 9 characters that you’re able to date in Amorous, each one feels distinctly different. They all have their own personality traits and they stick by them as you pursue their stories. Whether you’re looking for someone incredibly submissive or someone more dominant, someone who just needs a push to follow their dreams, or even your own… step brother… there’s something here for you. I still have fond memories of my dates with Seth, Dustin, Skye, Lex, and Mercy. Their dialogue and personalities really spoke to me and I found myself getting way more involved with fictional characters than even I had expected.

The gameplay is your basic visual novel, reading and reacting to character dialogue in the best way you can. Each of the 9 dateable characters have three main dates that you can go on, with the first two being more in-depth character exploration, learning about what makes them tick, what drives them, and getting really into who they are as an individual while flirting. The third date has potential to end with a bang in the best way possible.
You’ll want the full nudity patch in order to fully enjoy this game. The steps are simple:
Go to Steam library.
Find the game 'Amorous' and left click on it.
Click properties.
Click 'Local files' and then 'Browse Local Files'.
In that window create a notepad and name it ShowMeSomeBooty.txt. Press 'Enter'.
Rename that notepad / text file again. This time delete '.txt' and press 'Enter'.
The notification pops-up saying 'If you change the file name extension, the file might become unusable..'. Disregard it and just press 'Enter'.

Much like Deep Space Waifu, it’s just a matter of adding a file to the game folder. Brilliant and really adds to the experience.

Everything from the build-up to the act itself is so well laid out it’s hard NOT to touch yourself if you’re playing this alone. The sex scenes only level of interaction is progressing the scene, leaving both hands free outside of progressing the scene to help get you to your own happy ending. Did I fap to this? Yes. Absolutely. And I’d do it again!

Not only is this game furry AND free, but it also blew away my expectations in regards to the animation, motion, character depth, writing, and story. I found myself so involved with the characters presented that the experiences felt genuine.
