Often referred to as Hentai, Eroge is a video game genre which has (usually manga-style) pornographic content and artwork.
These games were popular enough to warrant an anime, whether it was a full television series, an OVA (original video animation), or a feature-length movie.
Achievements are extra challenges added into video games that sometimes carry a point value or unlock bonus material, and are sometimes solely for bragging rights.
Environments cycle between day and night, often with effects on other aspects of the game.
Moral dilemmas presented to the player that often have a significant effect on the story or other characters.
A device by which a character's motivations or expectations are influenced by a suspiciously absent family member.
Games that have had an Original Soundtrack album released.
