Will Lust become your closest ally… or your greatest threat? The choice is yours in this interactive fiction, where every decision you make shapes the story, relationships, and ultimately, who you become.

1.8.1
Chapter 1 MAJOR revamp
- Marie's paths have been completely reworked. The storyline mostly is the same, but with more meaningful choices and branchpoints. She now has a dedicated Trust ending, Her corruption path has been changed, with a main ending and an exclusive new ending (unleash lewd). Her former corruption path is now her chaos path. Two new scenes for Marie.
- Autumn's and Mia's endings have been reorganized. They have a specific Trust ending, and I added a failed Love ending. New scene for Autumn. More meaningful choices to reach their endings.
- Chaos paths are now hidden behind chaos points threshold. The choices to reach those paths are the same, but players won't see them unless actively searching for them.
- Almost all sex scenes from ch1 have been rewritten, and the watermarks from videos removed. Sometimes, I changed the videos for better ones.
- Rebalanced points earnings, added new choices in some dialogues, rewrote countless dialogues.
- Broke passages in shorter ones, for a better rhythm.
- Dozen of new images, for more immersive dialogues scenes.
- Ch1 proofread in progress.
Chapter 2 changes
I didn't change a lot of things. Would delay this update too much, and ch2 will have its revamp at the end of it anyway.
- New branchpoint for Abigail, you can have a route with only Eva (refuse the BJ during dinner, then aim for low Trust). Pretty barebone for now, I'll flesh it after chapter 2 is over.
- Chaos paths won't be available if you didn't pick the black door by the end of chapter 1. Won't be available also if you're not on cast's corruption paths at the time.
- Rewrote some unleashed lewd endings (Molly, Gina) that were too chaotic for a corruption path. Rewrote Diaz's corruption path for the same reason.
- Rebalanced some points earnings and threshold.

[Ch.2 v1.10] General review: This is a certified banger, fokls! The writing, while it has typos here and there, and odd phrasing in certain spots, is very good and is definitely written by a human being which is a great plus in these times when LLM slop writing is running rampant. We got the usual thing you could expect from this genre of html, something akin to College Daze and the like. You got well written characters, and at certain points in the story, you can influence them in various ways. The coding is quite good to represent the many dynamic variations in character states and relationships. While it certainly is a power fantasy, it's not just a fuckfest game that has no core plot of interest. Like you are not just walking around banging women. The story is interesting, maybe even more interesting than the porn, in my opinion. But rest assured, there are a lot of porn too. Spoiler: Hidden route Chaos Route: Now, what I want to talk about is a certain route in this game... there is a "secret" route. While the mainline routes are love vs lust (both are generally wholesome), there is a hidden Chaos route (aka black door route, or domination route). You will probably need to read the walkthrough to initially get on this path. This route is probably the best execution of "male MC corruption" genre that I have seen so far. The story where a good guy gets some power, and power corrupts him to gradually do things that he never would have done, abusing it to dominate those around him for selfish reasons. The genre itself is rather rare, and even when you see one, they botch the execution, usually by rushing or not really exploring the male MC's ethical and moral shifts. This game is progressing this narrative beautifully. The MC starts off as a typical good guy. He can justifiably use his power to punish a bully bitch that is hurting his sister. And then, the more he uses this power, the more he begins to rationalize it. The change is gradual and subtle, and at key moments, like when he has a chance to use it on his friend (someone he cares about unlike a random bitch), it is a pivotal moment. Sometime in the future, obviously this path will get to the point where he can use the domination powers on his family, and that would signal the beginning of his complete corruption. The moral crossroads that the MC faces at pivotal junctions are framed just perfectly to represent his current mental state. The characters are written well enough that even a grade A degenerate like me feels a bit bad when doing these characters wrong. That only happens when characters are believable and well realized with realistic interactions. Shortcomings: I can't give this one 5* because it doesn't quite nail the visual consistency. Real-porn's biggest limitation is that you somehow have to fit pre-existing videos into different narratives and scenarios, and you are limited to what these pornstars have done. You either have to write the story to match the video, or you have to just kind of ignore that the videos are not the best representation of the scene you wrote. The dev is a bit loose on this. Characters change clothes/outfits within scenes. They are supposedly wearing lingerie but when the scene starts, video shows them in clothes. The setting in the video doesn't match what's happening in the story. Angry characters being coerced to do something they don't want is smiling happily in the video. Things like that add up to detract from the immersion a bit.
Came for the pornn stayed for the story. Many games you just wat to ski the text, but this one sucks you in. Pretty stanadart game play system. Havent encountered bugs so far. .............................
One of the best written porn games ever with lots of potential. Excellent dialogue in particular. Nothing grindy, lots of meaningful path choices and the scenes are great. This could legit be a book and I'd read it, the porn is just a bonus lol.
This game's gonna' be in my top 3 HTML games. Easily 5 stars. Hundreds of scenes, solid dialogue, some decent humor, good character writing, promising story, good model selection, lots of effort. The corruption mechanic is very good, with lots of variation, and Lawd, I need more gullible Gina scenes. It mixes VN and SandBox elements fairly well (would've enjoyed a slightly sandboxier experience, right now it feels a little bit railroady unless you play with the walkthrough, though it looks like chapter 3 will get me there, because it seems it will continue with an expansion on the chapter 2 mechanics). The game's not perfect, some spelling errors and miswritten idioms here, some boring writing there (Lily's boring to me, ngl, and it feels like she gets the most content, but if you fancy vanilla, she's your gal). There's a distinct lack of anal, especially for a game where sexual corruption and dubious consent are so involved. I saw exactly one (1) scene in the entire game so far, and I haven't played all paths for all characters, but I suspect that's the only one (PenelopeChP), but the game's obviously not complete, and the paths of the individual girls seem to be linear, simultaneous and mostly parallel, so I imagine those will come one by one. Overall, I played this game twice start to finish, it was great. The sins function kinda' like the endless from The Sandman (comic). Really looking forward to this being completed.
Definitely, one of the best html porno games I have ever played. I really enjoyed the corruption (specifically, the sister). But the game doesn't have many sex scenes as of now. I also dont have high hopes that the developer will ever finish this game. Overall, I would say it is worth playing if you like corruption and mind control. Otherwise, I would pass on this game.
Awesome game—very much in line with my personal taste. It offers three distinct main paths: Love, Corruption, and Dominance (Chaos). Each unique path contains multiple choices, and every path has clearly defined endings for the characters. The main story is a solid 10/10, and the writing quality is very strong throughout. It has free roam which doesn't need endless clicking like other sandbox games, you will get fresh convos with every click. Great mixture of visual novel and sandbox by dev. I absolutely enjoyed playing multiple playthroughs.
Fun gameplay, but not really enjoying the guilt trips over some of the choices. If you put multiple paths in a game like this, trying to coerce players down a specific path is bad game design. There are other issues, but none of them bothered me in my playthroughs. I would give this game a 7.5/10.
It's a three star game, which is harsh but ultimately I think deserved. The strange thing about the game is the mix of the well written with the grimly poor errors. I assume translation issues. These seem to stack up more and more as you get further into the game and could be fixed by any average proof-reading native speaker. The end result is that characters have a mix of overly formal language at times, then failing at basic tenses the next. Words like "specie" and "serie" appear where someone presumably thought the singular should lack an s. Elsewhere, you find "see" when it should be "seeing", or even words like "determinated" when it should be "determined". It all gets a bit painful eventually, and it spoils what otherwise would be getting a 4 star review at the very least. That aside, it's a bit of a diamond in the rough insofar as it's not revolutionary but it is very engaging. The mix of LIs are well done. I always appreciate when the characters have different personalities and foibles. It's got decent corruption. It's got some lesser seen models I like (granted, all game developers swear a solemn oath to never make a college game without Else Jean, but Lola Mai is a rarity as a fleeting side character). It's extremely rare to find an HTML game that actually has free roam sections without pointless clicking. The story is interesting enough to keep you going, and while it isn't the main focus it doesn't get entirely neglected like most games of this type. Polish the edges and I'd gladly up my rating. At least a star, maybe two.
Genuinely one of the best newer entries here. Don't let detractors sway you. It's one of the few I've made it all the way through, in regards to the current content, in a long time. I'm pretty picky, so that's saying something. It's not without some flaws, but they aren't glaring. There's some typos, but nothing too significant.
A game with a lot of problems and is annoying to read/watch. I’d really recommend trying something else. Lots of spelling mistakes, and grammar, some worse than others… Some not so much but it gets annoying. Such as: “I can't be certain, but I'd assume somehow you hurt yourself with the mow.” “She's true about a thing” Too many different types of images that are supposed to be the same person/conversation. You might start a conversation with a blonde in the kitchen, then the next sentence she’s a brunette with that’s outside, then maybe something else with some other location… Another example, you go to the store and the image is just a girl standing in her kitchen...but it’s supposed to be a clothing store. The first sex scene I saw was a blowjob from the neighbor which was a page with 3 or 4 videos on it that looped over and over and were about 7 seconds long each. They all also started at the same time so it was really a mess as far as watching… One of the next ones had 11 separate videos none longer than 7 seconds, I think it was, and they all just sort of started at the same time. It was too chaotic. The next was 6 video clips, the same way….you get the idea.. They use videos that show different people or locations between the clips and are noticeably from different movies or sites a lot of the time so it’s really not immersive or effective in the story. Anyway...in the shape it’s in I really think folks should skip it. If they correct all the spelling, grammar, and weird video clips then it might be worth another look.
TL;DR = really good game. I consider this a hidden gem. Story: 5/5 Pros: + Plot in this game is quite good. + There are this mythical beings embodying deadly aspects (wrath, lust, greed, gluttony, etc.). And one of these being starts living in MC's body. + Now you have a choice whether you will embrace the lust or if you try to resist it. That means you can always choose between multiple choices that will embrace either love or lust routes. Or you can mix it (chaos). + Side characters are well written and I enjoyed their banter. + There is a lot of romance in this game and some supernatural mystery drama. Art and sex stuff: 5/5 Pros: + This game uses real life porn images and videos. + Porn actresses look hot. + Sex scenes are good. + There is some variability in sex scenes. Gameplay: 5/5 Pros: + This is sort of Visual Novel with choices. Choices influence a lot of scenes. + There is a lot of variables in this game. + English is decent. + Sex scenes have sounds. + Game is quite long. I think I spend over 10 hours playing it. + You can replay the game for 2nd game and follow different routes for different girls. Cons: - The game is still in development and there are some bugs. To sum it up: I really liked this game. This is a hidden gem.
"Seven Sins" by Lianland presents a unique and engaging narrative where players embody a 19-year-old protagonist who unexpectedly becomes the host of Lust, one of the Seven Deadly Sins. The story is well-crafted, offering a blend of supernatural intrigue and psychological depth, making for a highly original experience. While the game is primarily text-based, its descriptive storytelling compensates for the lack of full-fledged renders or animations. The writing quality is solid, with recent updates improving grammar and readability. The absence of voice acting is understandable given the format, though a subtle soundtrack could enhance immersion. Sound design is minimal but not a dealbreaker, as the narrative itself carries the experience. In terms of playability and performance, "Seven Sins" runs smoothly, with an intuitive interface that allows for seamless navigation. Bugs are rare, and the developers have actively refined the game, introducing features like tooltips and expanded character sections. The branching storylines and moral choices add significant replay value, ensuring that every decision has weight. Content updates are consistent, making the game feel ever-evolving. While some might crave more visual elements, the game's depth, choice-driven mechanics, and intriguing plot make it a must-play for fans of interactive fiction. It’s a thoughtful exploration of human desires wrapped in a gripping, supernatural tale.
This game is difficult to rate. For starters, I think it is a fantastic html game, but trying to explain why I like it ends up with some contradictions in what I have to say. So instead of condensing everything into a main point I'll just state them plainly. This game has plenty of writting issues. I'm not talking about grammar or mispellings (though the game has an ample supply of these too), I'm talking about problems at the base and problems at the structure. You can't strain much further into cliched territory than 'The Seven Deadly Sins' and in a porn game especially, Lust is an uninspired choice. This road hasn't so much been walked as it has had the dirt from which it's made of compacted into a solid foundation of bedrock. In a setting like this, a story really needs something to set itself apart, and I am sorry to say, there isn't any one thing I can point to as doing that. But there are plenty of small things that add up. For starters, Lust's characterization. I am a big fan of Lust's arc, at least in the love route, where she's initially annoyed at the lack of sex and progress and eventually ends up respecting the player's different process. One of the most important aspects of lust I think are underexplored in these stories is the different shapes it can take. The very embodiment of lust can't purely be a sex fiend who needs rough sex 24/7, because that simply ignores too big a subset of lust. To represent the entirety of Lust she has to also be interested in loving caresses and slow burns, the build up and release of sexual tension. Hate fucking and love making. And this is a story understands that. The second thing, which really shouldn't count yet it does a lot of heavy lifting for this game is timing and focus. That a story would have a good sense of timing and be able to estabilish events as being important or not important within that timing should be a given. And yet if you've played htlm games in this website before you know that makes a game a gem. The character arcs overlap in just the correct way to always have something of some importance happening while still doing a good job of separating individual important events to give them the focus once in a while. Not only that, the relationships develop at wildly different pace, giving a feeling of groundness thas is really important to the story. Thidly, the way the game handles it's archetypes. Most of the main cast is comprised of stereotypes. The affectionate little sister. The cold, distant older sister. The works too hard single mom. The slacker. The nerd. The prude. The bully. Having these many seemingly one dimensional characters required some potent character development and most of them get it. Now, as with all games of this manner, it bears saying, character development by way of mind control is the biggest writting crutch of all times. Need a character to behave in a way the character you've written thus far wouldn't behave? Mind control cum. Works everytime. The systems aren't sufficiently well explained to give the player an idea of what is and isn't possible, just the usual, vague "has to be gradual, person has to trust you, has to be horny" which...yeah, that doesn't tell me much. And yet, I feel credit is still due for almost every character development. Most of the time, they feel very organic Last and most importantly, the game is passionate. It's difficult to quantify and I certainly can't prove it but it comes through in the text that the writter actually cares about the story they're telling. Anyone with a creative disposition can recognize the signs, and even some fundamental building blocks from which the rest of the story was crafted. And that matters, because it gives the overall story a sense of cohesion that holds everything together even as the individual pieces fail. In the end, it all comes together to form a charming, fun game, that should really, REALLY consider hiring a proofreader
Man, I did not expect this game to be this good. This game is on on par with amazing works such as Love and Vice, Paradise Found, Become Someone, just to name a few, and many others. Truly a gem of the real porn genre. There's a significant amount of gameplay which is a lot more than what the file size makes you expect. The videos, gifs, and images are very well compressed without sacrificing quality, and the writing is incredibly good. It also has quite a bit of replayability which doesn't feel like a slog like some games do. The pornstar choices are also on point, which is usually make or break for real porn games, and this one nails it on the head.
This is an elite game, yes there are typos in scenes, and yes sometimes the same scenes repeat, but the choices in both pornstars and how their characters interact in this story are absolutely perfect. The amount of content this game has is amazing too, it is at the top of this specific genre of porn games. and the relationship you have with Lust is so good, that you really feel like you're on the same team if you make the right choices.
Summary first, Seven Sins is well worth your time if you're interested in this type of game. It has flaws, as it is still in development, but most of said flaws are actively being worked on according to the dev. Without said flaws, I'd rate it 5/5 Spoiler: Gameplay Seven Sins doesn't re-invent the wheel with its gameplay. It's fairly standard HTML/VN stuff. You read the story, and make choices to alter stats and the route(s) you're on. The flaws in this category are small enough not to dock points, but there is still improvement to be made. For example, sometimes a list of options is presented to you about who to spend time with. Sometimes, you're choosing an order (which may or may not matter) but must do them all, others you only get to pick on. This should be communicated better to the player so that they know if an option will progress time or not. Ideally, I'd like to see a persistent gallery implemented which allows you to view scenes across playthroughs, or at minimum a gallery for all of the main characters as currently only some have them. The other issue is character-related, so I'll save it for that section. Spoiler: Characters Seven Sins has a wide selection of characters to enjoy. In fact, it might be slightly too many characters for some. Granted, there are certainly games out there with this problem in a larger degree, but nonetheless it can be tiring. There are 21 characters relevant to the day-to-day of the game. Lust and the family, the 8 Chapter 1 characters, the 8 Chapter 2 characters, and the MC. There are definitely more characters than these, but they're "guest" characters, antagonists, and other Sins with barebones content at this stage (which is NOT a bad thing). The characters we mainly interact with have enough depth to them to be interesting, but some characters get more of a focus than others based on overall plot relevance. There is a decent mix of slow-burn vs quick-n-dirty characters, and even the latter have interesting aspects to their characterization and individual plots. Given the sheer amount of characters, I think an opt-out for characters with low plot relevance would be a good addition, as unfortunately I found myself skimming through scenes with characters I was less interested in to get back to the ones I was hooked on, as well as the main plot. Naturally, this is a problem more-so in Chapter 2, as that's when the cast almost doubles while still trying to give service to the Chapter 1 characters. As a suggestion, time slots that would otherwise be taken by a character that's been opted out of could have options for generic events to give a small boost to a stat of another character. I suspect this may be too much to ask, however, as the characters do seem to be quite well intertwined which is otherwise a good thing. But hey, a man can dream. Spoiler: Plot Seven Sins has a premise that isn't terribly original, but is executed far better than at least most other plots of the type. The Deadly Sin, Lust, ends up stuck in your brain, granting you access to her powers. The Sins are less "demons" and more "eldritch/extradimensional aliens" which mess with worlds across the galaxy (this is all prologue information, so not really spoilers). Despite the title, Lust is the only Sin thus far that gets much screen time, though I believe we're still in the "setup" phase of the story and will see more of them later. What's there is good. Each character has not only multiple routes, but even sub-routes where you tweak the precise details of your relationships. Minor spoilers for one character: Redeem the bully or make her your slave? Redeem her? Okay, how? Make her a Saint, make her specifically repentant to her victims, or make just make her a generally-good person? This is just one example, and while admittedly I chose the best example, the others don't often fall short of that mark. The plot isn't perfect however. There are some plot contrivances and twists so heavily-foreshadowed that I struggle to call them twists, but these aren't even remotely deal-breakers, just areas where it loses its lust er a bit. Spoiler: Writing The writing is witty, with plenty of pop-culture references in non-lewd scenes (though for some that may be a turn-off). It is usually verbose without devolving into sheer walls of text. At the time of this review, however, there is a serious flaw with regards to word choice. Frequently, a word will be incorrect - usually one close to the correct word in appearance, though not in meaning - but the spelling itself is otherwise usually good. The main misspelling that wasn't a different word was "strenght" which appeared several times, I think. Spoiler: Lewds Seven Sins is a Real-Porn game. That said, the model selection is generally good without being the classic selections that have all been done to death (no Riley Reid! ). Naturally, personal taste plays into things a bit, so your mileage may vary. The downside as far as the game is concerned is that Real-Porn means the dev has to make choices about scenes to use. It is impossible to have consistency on all fronts in a game this large, and admittedly the dev does an excellent job keeping the actresses consistent. However, the male actors sometimes vary widely enough to be distracting and immersion-breaking. This problem is being worked on by the dev, so take this with a grain of salt if you're reading this review when a version later than "Ch. 2 v1.5 Fix" is out. It is my hope that - once the dev finds greater success and can afford an artist - they switch from Real-Porn to something else, but only if it's done well. The reason being that Real-Porn can get caught in some legal trouble, in addition to some potential players turning away "on principle." I would hate to see this get canned over something like that. With a bit more development, Seven Sins can be one of the greatest HTML games on this site, and many would say it already is. Cheers, all! Edit: fixed a formatting error due to a misplaced bracket
This ranks among the best sugarcube games on this site. Even though there are spots where the translation to english is rough it's content makes it worth it. The characters are not entirely two-dimensional in spite of cliche's being present. The game itself has multiple characters that are a slow burn and others that are quick and easy. The concepts of lust and shadow and their execution is interesting enough and there's a feeling of progression along with that critically missing element in so many mind-control/corruption themed games: Your choices do actually lead to different outcomes, different scenes, and different recurring available scenes. Choices can and do lock you out of certain content depending on your path, but unlock others. And the corruption/love/trust spectrum being on both a main-character level as well as the individual npc level is awesome. This dev clearly puts effort beyond the bare minimum for a wank-game in and is trying to tell a compelling story - which they are succeeding at. I am enjoying it and will follow and support it going forward. I have to hard disagree with the review claiming the protagonist is constantly being put down or controlled, you can certainly go against Lust and do your own thing, she may rebuke you for it because she's trying to influence you, but if you actually read the dialogue when she tells you who and what she is over time it's very much in character - in her own words she's about freeing inhibitions and spreading sex and lust throughout the world and 'encouraging' people in their own sexuality (to an extreme sure) - when you go against her it's usually for the sake of controlling another person or refusing to set someone's sexuality/inhibition free or build their self-esteem and force it to rely on you. She very clearly states that is a thing Envy does and she doesn't like it, but that doesn't stop you from doing anything. Further proof that you aren't just there to be put down - there are two 'bulies' in this story - one in chapter 1 and one in chapter 2. In chapter 1 there are multiple ways to deal with the bully and she has multiple endings, to my knowledge only one leaves her as a domme of sorts, in chapter 2 toward the end of the game it's obvious that the same will go for her - it's entirely possible to make the lionesses into docile kittens and Lust won't rebuke you for it. She does have some snyde remarks for you any time you choose subby-protaganist options though, but even that is done in a clearly teasing sort of way.
Thoroughly enjoyed the game. The writing is witty, characters nuanced and the presence of Lust adds to the game without being redundant. Sex is never far away yet it does not take away from the corruption going on. I'd say that corruption is the main theme of the game, a theme it does well as it understands human psychology. As for kinks, they could be more varied as it is of now mainly vanilla. Something that really breaks the immersion, enough to unsettle the pace of the game, is that sometimes the MC is white, black or latino. Highly confusing, was there really no other porn to choose from? There are times where the dev needs to proofread as spelling errors find themselves into the writing. I also can't help but notice that the quality of the writing fluctuates, chapter 2 feels more... Rushed, without spoiling anything. All in all, it's a strong recommend to play the game if corruption themes with the paranormal interests you.
A lot of fun with meaningful and interesting choices. I really like how varied the relationships can become and how much content is in the game already. Really scratches the incest and mind control itch while still feeling grounded. Looking forward to the next update.
