Subverse is an upcoming tactical role-playing shoot 'em up hybrid pornographic video game developed by FOW Interactive and published by Streembit Ltd for Microsoft Windows. It was released on Steam in early access on 26 March 2021 and 25 October 2021 on GOG.com.
Gameplay
Subverse is set in the fictional Prodigium Galaxy in which humans and different species of aliens co-exist under rule by a tyrannical government known as The Imperium. The gameplay mixes visual novel-style storytelling with completion of missions in tactical grid combat and space shooter sections. Much of the game also features adult themes involving explicit sex scenes with non-human characters and players leveling up "waifu loyalty" from female characters to unlock additional sex scenes.[1][2]
Plot and characters
Set in a far future in the distant corner of the universe known as the Prodigium Galaxy, mostly ruled by the theocratic government known as The Imperium in which ideology values virginity over sex. Prodigium makes up of five nebulae: the Dragon Nebula (home of The Imperium); the Hydra Nebula (home to the Kloi race); the Kraken nebula (home to the Nikith and Vanneran race); the Yeti Nebula (home to the Teelee race); and the Griffin Nebula where a colony named Nü Vegas was established on a planet by stranded humans (referred to as the Solar race) of a prison convoy with no way to return to Earth. The main protagonist features a Solar known as The Captain, a former resident of Nü Vegas and the newly self-proclaimed owner of Mary Celeste, a spaceship he found mysteriously drifting across the galaxy without any of its original crew left. As the story progresses, The Captain joins an underground movement along with his new harem of female crewmembers to topple The Imperium rule over Prodigium.
