Okay so Puzzle Date. I fired it up expecting the usual Tora Productions polish, you know, the slick stuff from SWM, and instead I got this weirdly janky match 3 thing. The gems are a metaphor for flirting or whatever, which sounds pretentious but honestly? It kind of works when you're half distracted. You're swapping colored blobs while some dude is trying to get his dick wet, and the board clears just as she moans. It's a strange vibe.

The art is 3DCG, classic Tora, so everyone's got those exaggerated proportions, huge tits, asses you could park a bike on. There's a male path and a lesbian one, and I picked the guy first because I'm basic. The match 3 gameplay is... fine. It's no HuniePop. Sometimes the pieces just don't align and you're stuck making a move that feels like a limp handshake, and then the scene jumps to a hardcore anal pounding and the disconnect is hilarious. The swinging and group sex stuff unlocks if you don't totally suck at puzzles. I got a scene with two women going at it while the male protag just watched, all that teasing, and the sound design is... well, there's a reason I'm reviewing the SFX. The wet slaps are a bit tinny, like someone slapping a wet towel in a bathroom, but the moans are decent. I wish the oral sounds had more... suction? You know what I mean.

The story is barely there, a skeleton to hang the sex on, but the romance bits with the female protag on the lesbian path actually had some sweet moments between the scissoring. It's a side project and it feels like it, unpolished in a way that's almost charming until the puzzle RNG screws you and you're just clicking angrily while a character with a big ass stares at you, waiting. I never did finish the group scene chain because I got bored of the gem matching. The multiple protagonists thing is neat but they don't interact much. It's a weird little game. Not their best, but the swinging scene with the redhead was worth the carpal tunnel.
