From Thief to orgasm simulator, awesome developer.

Though, really, did they have to use a cute bunny? That kind of creeps me out.

okay, after reading about this some more, apparently the person who made this wants it to be for children. And she doesn't want parents or the children to know that it's really about sex.

The hope is that the game would entertain females - without them ever needing to understand the sex metaphor. But at some point when they did start figuring out the connection to their own sexuality and pleasure, they would have learned some ideas and techniques behind sexual satisfaction.

The DS is already a popular platform with females

Nintendogs, Tamagotchi and other upcoming female-friendly titles (Animal Crossing) should ensure that there is a good (large) consumer base

The touch screen and audio input features are crucial for tactile, intimate gameplay

The portability means you can take the game anywhere – including OUT of the living room, into the bedroom.

Reasonable price point means players probably have their own DS and aren’t sharing with another family member.

SO!

What is this game?

Lapis - A magical pet adventure

(And… a stealthy primer on female sexual pleasure)

God, this is disturbing. I take back my previous thumb up.

I usually try to leave my vagina attached to my g/f.

Personally, I think it's an interesting concept. The concept seems to take a lot of people off guard, IGN was all like, "WON'T SOMEONE THINK OF THE CHILDREN? HOT COFFEE 2!!" I guess I can understand why people are freaked out by it, since it's hiding it's sexual intentions, but from what I've heard the game has no explicit content, so who cares?

The only people complaining are those who think that not telling their children about sex before they're 18 prevents teen pregnancy.

This'll be a fun game to ask my mother to get me for Christmas. . .

*Sigh* Do they just WANT to feed the anti-game fire?

I have child(ren) and I don't like this one bit. Sorry. Just feels wrong to me.

This has nothing to do with people morons who think it's a good idea to force schools to lie to teenagers about sex and whatnot (said people generally aren't after preventing teen pregnancy, BTW. At least not in the states. Anyway.)

The designer of this game is a person who wants to be a part of children's private sexual development. And when adults try to become a part of that, it's usually psychologically damaging to the child. This isn't teaching children about sex - or even masturbation. This is a simulator designed to provoke the child to sexually stimulate a virtual living being. That's wrong. Period.

You don't sexually stimulate the bunny, it's just that it reacts in the same way as parts of the female sexual organs. "The hope is that the game would entertain females - without them ever needing to understand the sex metaphor." Sounds like it's not obvious what the game is about unless you happen to know it already (and therefore it's not obvious for children and it'd certainly not traumatize them) and maybe the kid will understand the lessons from the game once they understand how genitals work.

I mean, what kind of damage could understanding how masturbation works do? More than the hidden christian stuff in Chronicles of Narnia? Showing a kid some hardcore porn may be damaging, having them play with bunnies with a hidden metaphor the kid doesn't understand won't do that.

What's next? A game that teaches voodoo? Maybe Tarot Card reading? How to tell if your girlfriend is cheating on you daily, nightly, and every so rightly?

KDR_11k · « **Reply #16 on:** December 14, 2005, 07:51:29 AM »

Voodoo and tarot are stuff you can believe in or not (granted, some say so is the female orgasm) but tis is closer to a biology lesson than an introduction into any religion.

It is outrageous that a developer hopes to promote female masterbation amongst presumably very young girls with this game. (or among any age women). No video game should promote anything of a sexual nature, discreetly, openly, or otherwise. These types of matters should be reserved for the marriage bed only, and thats the end of the story.

Therefore we must promote more violence!

I still think it should be left up to the parents to teach kids the whole sex-ed thing. And the joke about this game will be on the developers, 'cause if the ESRB does any research into the games it rates, this will get a big fat 'M'.
