Summer In The City

Help Summer Summerson, an eighteen year old girl from the middle of nowhere, to achieve her dream of becoming a professional photographer. After participating and winning an online photography contest, Summer receives an offer for a scholarship at one of the most prestigious art colleges in the country.But in order to follow her dream she will have to leave her rural home and move into the big city, a new environment she never experienced before. Help Summer tackle that exciting new environment while meeting it's inhabitants.While not all but many of the adult visual novels play with the theme of "corrupting the innocent", this game will take a different route. The characters in this story will embrace their sexuality, and create a sex positive environment around them aside from dealing with any of the daily struggles. It is somewhat of an adult coming of age story, learning about yourself and your desires and how to come to terms with them. Kinks and fetishes will play a role, so it will get dirty, but in a fun and consensual way.Summer In The City is mainly focused on female/female relationships, but there is some bisexual content too, which is 100% optional. Please be aware that female/male content is very limited at the moment. There will be more scenes added later on. The focus still remains mostly on female/female content though.

Final Verdict:

Summer in the City is a high-quality graphics project for an adult audience of gamers, which will appeal to the audience due to the explicit content, there will be quite a lot of it, and due to the plot story about a young girl who moved to a big city. She left the countryside after winning a photography competition. The reward was a scholarship to a very prestigious college. Which sent the main character, not accustomed to noisy streets, to the very epicenter of adventures. New acquaintances, visiting different locations, studying and much more await her, which should entertain fans of games in the "18+" category.
