I DID get results when I searched for pixel art alone, or stylized graphics alone. So looks like my first query was changed from "OR" to "AND" or something, which of course doesn't deliver since a game can't be both...]]>

Sex and adventures games have a long history with games from Sierra like Leisure Suit Larry and French developer Coktel Vision having explicit nudity in them. More recently, FMV games like Immortality even have (simulated) sex scenes in them with actors. Since the latter is included in the site database, I'm assuming it would be an example of a game that is okay to both mention and talk about as long as we aren't posting screen shots with nudity in them.

However, there are also narrative games that are sold on PC storefronts like Steam, itch.io and GOG that are quite a bit more explicit and are often age restricted. In the news last year many of these adult games were removed from Steam and itch.io (in some cases only temporarily) to comply with payment providers. On some other forums, I have seen rules banning these type of games from being discussed at all or even mentioned by name, which is why I am creating this topic.

In many cases their artistic value may be low, but in other cases they are some of the highest rated games on itch.io and the vndb and many would argue that they do have artistic value and are worthy of discussion. If a list of specific games would help, I'm happy to provide it to the mods.

I don't want to make too big of a deal with this so to simplify, my interpretation of the rules currently is that no explicit screenshots should be shared or links to game pages showing explicit images. On the other hand, no specific games are banned from discussing or mentioning as long as the discussion around them doesn't become too overtly sexual. Would that be a fair assessment?

Again, happy to follow any rules that are set, even if I disagree with them, and thank you in advance for taking the time to read this post and to reply.]]>
