Kink Inc, a hentai clicker game developed by Tender Troupe. Released July, 2020. Play for free. Available for PC internet browsers and Android. No voice acting. Uncensored genitals.

You are the mayor who ordered a trillion dildos by accident. So, you become a dildo merchant, to not be busted for wasting taxpayer money. Phew, thank god I’m safe from another Cartoon Network demon goof world. A casual game with a casual premise, and written without anything obnoxious.

We have a clicker on our hands, the writing is somewhat better than usual. I still think writing is the weakest aspect of most hentai games. They seem to never learn great writing from their peers on Steam. Or nobody thinks that they can combine gacha games with interesting writing.

Our Tender Troupe friends are from the Balkans, where you can hire a voice actress for 10$/hour, but 4 games in, they don’t seem to think it’s worthwhile even though they probably spend more than that for sparkling water in their office.

You can immediately spot if people understand what makes a clicker game good. Unfortunately for Kink Inc, their team is not blessed with that knowledge. Their competitors have done clickers, and they tried to take a shot with their own but, while it’s clean, it’s working fine, girls are sexy. That little flavor of special sauce is missing and unfortunately for everybody and not just my cynical gamer self – it shows.

Kink Inc is trailing near the bottom of the landing page so it’s not doing too well with players either.

Sound-wise it’s bare bones, in this day and age if you can’t afford good sound, there are plenty of sound pack services that you can cherry-pick to put together decent enough music and sound effects for a sexy clicker game. But then, Europeans seem to think even less of the atmosphere than Americans nowadays. That is why European cinema is usually a dry and melancholic affair with a typically poor mood. Even though Titans like Hans Zimmer are European.

Between that and the 5000 American movies a year with various hair colors of Womens Oppression Olympics™, we’re really really short on entertainment. You can scold me for getting distracted here, but the gameplay is struggling to keep my attention.

Much unlike the traditional clicker game:

I can make a very long essay about the subtleties of clicker games, but you, dear reader, want to know if the tiddies are good. So – Yes, they are. If you like that art style it’s as pretty as ever. Their illustrators know how to compose and then draw pretty things to look at. Sadly, they haven’t found it necessary to find or train an animator so, while others produce crappier games than them, they can usually boast much more vibrant environments than Kink Inc.

This is the first time in a gacha game where I thought the gacha-pull “portal” was very underwhelming. It’s some boring ass briefcase. Who thought that people paying money to roll a loot box would be happy to see that, is a genuine mystery, but the same person has clearly gone on a spree of lackluster visual decisions, which have left the game wanting in many small, but key areas.

Kink Inc is not shy about hentai content, so if you do like it, there are plenty of girls to go with, the clicker isn’t too demanding, so you can mostly focus on your hentai and service it with few clicks here and there. At least automations are available and you can do most of the collecting passively.

I guess the amount of people who play these games on their phones is growing because these small-screen games keep popping up. As a pure mobile experience, I think it doesn’t compare well, especially to its mainstream counterparts. I suppose they thought doing a clicker was going to be easy, but as the developers of Harem Heroes and many others found out, it’s not as simple as it seems.

There are no performance issues, other than minor things. Interface is straightforward, I have 30 years of hardcore variety gaming under my belt, so I can tear it apart, but let’s just say it’s decent, and it’s better than most of their competitors. It’s just not good enough that it contributes to the fun factor of the game, and that’s a key aspect in clicker games.

If you ever wanna do such a game, copy the approach from casino slot machines, they have the presentation subtleties down to a science. That is if you are too busy to download the most popular mainstream clicker games and learn from what they are doing already.

CONCLUDING WORDS

It is a consistent experience, with beautiful graphics, a serviceable clicker game, and not too burdened by the usual microtransactions we’ve come to expect. Try it out for free.
