Course of Temptation
Course of Temptation is a detailed adult college life simulator. It’s text-based and runs right in your browser.
Featuring a detailed simulation with hundreds of possible events and erotic scenes, you can explore your exhibitionist and voyeuristic fantasies through your character.
Experience the life of a college-aged adult. Attend classes (or skip them!), join a sports team, work various part time jobs, become a streamer, and pursue your character's hobbies.
Play as male or female (with transgender options) or non-binary.
Kinks explored: exhibitionism, casual sex, wardrobe malfunctions, voyeurism, dares and bets, sexy parties, being an adult content creator, and general college debauchery.
This game was first released in July 2023. It's in active development and will be updated over time! You can find dev diaries and participate in development polls on my Patreon and SubscribeStar. You can also check out the development roadmap to see what's coming up.

All characters are 18+ and all sexual encounters depicted are consensual.
Features:
A detailed life simulator: Manage your character’s day-to-day needs, skills, attitudes, clothes, and so on. Character customization: Choose your appearance and outfits. Build your skills how you like. Do what you like. Choose your attitude: As your character discovers things about themselves, choose their inclinations, deciding how they’ll react to similar situations in the future. Experience temptation: At first relatively inhibited and easily embarrassed, your character can learn to abandon shame and embrace their sexuality. A different story every day: Make plans as you like. Go to class. See a movie. Work out at the gym. Make some questionable side bets at the arcade. But expect surprises. Hundreds of events mean you can never be sure exactly what will happen. | A living world: Your world has a population of hundreds, including fellow students, professors, coworkers, bosses, rivals, townspeople of all stripes, and many more. An erotic narrative: Long-term plotlines with recurring characters will play out over time, including erotic prose that’s reactive to your character and your decisions. People with attitude: Different attitudes, inclinations, and skills mean varied interactions with the people of the world. Some will be your friend, some will be obstacles. People with memory: That time you flashed the guys at a party. That restroom encounter at the seedy bar. That time the wind flipped your skirt. They’ll remember, and it’ll matter. Everything has consequences. Earn a reputation: Sometimes people talk and secrets don’t stay secret. Expect word of some of the things you do to spread and shape the attitudes of others. |

Amazing update, but the issue with the bars don't appearing correctly for screen readers continues. Please, fix it.
Hi! Very small thing, I was wondering if you could give the tail butt plugs different text/events (instead of the usual butt plug random text) because the tail would be visible to people around you. For example, a person might pull your tail on the bus.

Will there be an option for the maincharacter to have a vagina and a penis?
No, the creator has specifically done a thing about the kinks being what the people are doing not the people
Sorry, but I dont know what u mean, why will this not be added?
as in having a character w both parts is turning the character itself into a kink, not what the character is doing
ah, ok now i understand it thanks
Are you planning on integrating sissyfication?
I got bugged with one NPC too 😭. My dear Nathen Ademola, I was incressed my romance with him and I think the actualization make something, because I can date with him anymore, the lust and romance bar can't incress (Is like stop). I try to incress it with hang out - Just chill and make out, it suposs to incress lust but didn't work. I need a fix 😭
Hey! how can I give gifts to the best friend?
Am i bugged? So im trying to do the Best Friend Route and ive done it before so i know all the steps. Ive done the final part of the Milkshake plotline where you have to fight back against the dudes after going to the party a second type after rejecting the deal and now it says "Go to his room and talk about sex" which when i did this questline previously happened on the first time i did the interaction but i must have done the sex talk at least 8 different times without the falling asleep prompt appearing. Am i missing something? Is it just random how many tries it takes? or am i just straight up bugged
For Context im using the newest version that got released on the 7th of October
We need an NPC inclination called "Cuck" cause I've encountered 5 NPC's back to back that openly cheats on their SO, and thought it would perfectly fit if their SO had the "Cuck" inclination.
With this latest update, the game is no longer accepting "Daisy Dukes" (denim swimshorts) as acceptable bottoms to be worn outside, so I'm stuck in the gym locker room, unless I put regular clothes on. Please fix. Love the game!
Passed on, will be fixed!
Is there anyway to actually orgasm or masturbate during streams? So far I keep getting the sames ones like spank butt, spit on breasts, etc but every-time an orgasm could happen a will check makes it so it doesn’t.
Am I also meant to just remove all toys from the character for them to do anything with their genitals or anus?
Your arousal needs to be high and and you need disinhibition of 3 or higher.
Yeah its supposed to but whenever arousal maxes out during a stream or someone on it pays for a vibration with one of the toys it does a Willpower check, which my character always succeeds at to stop it from happening as they have max willpower.
Update: I managed to do it, in order to masturbate and orgasm during a stream you do need to have NO toy currently equipped that take up the vagina/Anus slots. Otherwise you are block from doing anything with it and are stuck unable to orgasm if you have willpower.
Bro, I want to ask, is this no NTR?
You can try to steal an NPC's significant other, if that's what you mean. I find it better to just have open relationships, so everyone involved can screw whoever they want.
please update the pregnancy kink and have it be a part of the game and finally be implemented instead of just saying not implemented yet.
There is a party event where you notice the Best Friend getting chatted up, which is kinda hot. I think that it would be neat if there were some follow-up events, like the Best Friend bragging/complaining about their last encounter, or accidentally running into them making out.
Hii! So, I don't know if this only happens to me, but everytime I try to watch other characters being intimate, an error appears and the game closes :( does someone know if this is a bug or if I'm triggering it?
Day 4 of asking for an obsessive character trait.
Anyone else getting "Error: no valid storage adapters found" when trying to start the game? My adblock is off and my cookies are enabled and other twine games works fine so idk what the issue is
Try using a different browser, preferably Chrome or Opera. Those work best for me when I get errors like that.
Where did the version number next to the download go?
Really love the game! Hope there's more major npcs to romance!
Enjoying the game. Only one complaint really: too easy. Feel like it's just too easy to land a one night stand. Where's the Sisyphus level of struggle to get laid? Maybe give a Foot In Mouth trait or lean in a little more with the Unlucky trait. Just a suggestion. Have the conquers feel earned.
Oh, also I wish I could add certain skin colors for turn-ons, but I understand why you left that option off.
Agreed. To alleviate this, I use the waitalittle World Seed, and this typically makes it so most NPCs have to have some kind of relationship with you first.
can someone spoil to me the admirers route? i keep forgetting to try it and i wanna know if its worth while
There's a Course of Temptation wiki which tells you how to do every route, actually! Here's the link to the Admirer's route and how to do it on the wiki: https://courseoftemptation.miraheze.org/wiki/The_Classroom_Admirer
This game is genuinely amazing, the one thing I wish it had was character art (I know that it's not coming but still), It's easy to get immersed and has so much to do. Although I've personally never finished a year, I'll get around to it eventually...
The characters text descriptions are so detailed, that I like to copy all that detail into the Perchance.org AI character generator and let it give me a picture of the NPC in question. If it isn't exactly what you imagined, you can retry until it is right. Then save the pic and you have something to look at while talking to them.
If I could use remote toys on my submissive it would be great. I also want them to wear chain, gag or choker. Or teasing them in public. Hope it will be added soon
True! Also, you should be able to give them collars!!!
thissss
Uhh guys, where do i have to go to participate in the tabletop sessions?
for the admirers quest its the other dorm hall before and after classes
Go to Helleborine dorm at 5:30PM Mon - Thurs. Not sure Friday, because Friday party might be starting by then.
Like RIGBY said, you can also go before classes. So, if you go by 7:45 am, then you can play an hour long session, even on Fridays, and still get to class by 9am.
Can they add putting in a save ID so u can have one of your chars on a different device...😓
you can use SAVE TO FILE - and move a save file between devices.
i swear it's so freaking hard to get the classroom harrasser's storyline to progress. i've made more progress on both the best friend and the roommate's lover unintentionally than i have on the harrasser 😭 idk what i'm doing wrong, i've maxed out his lust, friendship points and control but i can't progress further after the 'steal your homework' event (which i was also only able to get once ).
someone please tell me what i'm doing wrong 😭
To get to the homework stealing, I just play and it usually happens within the first three weeks in game. Although maxing out his friendship points may actually harm this (I don't know if that event has prerequisites)
If you give in or refuse to tell on them when they steal your homework, they will be dom. If you tell on them/refuse to let them steal your homework they will be subby.
After they (try to) steal your homework, they will approach you and tell you to meet them in the media lab.
When visiting the media lab, eventually the harasser will ask for you to flash them, or to video you. After this eventually you will have a guest lecturer instead of the normal professor (If I remember correctly) and you will get the bathroom sex scene. This scene repeats a few times.
After this, he will find you and confront you when walking around campus during the day. I don't know if this is restricted to certain time of day, but seems fairly RNG (like the people stealing your clothes in the shower for the Best Friend story start). It's like the common toll event, but more rare and with harasser instead.
Then finally, there is one more event I know of back in the Media lab. But I haven't been able to find the prerequisite skill levels to trigger. Or maybe it's inclination based. I guess you could fiddle around in cheats menu to find out.
Like most storylines, it seems a bit random to trigger, and takes a while.
i haven't gotten any event where he says to flash him? he did video my character in the media production lab.
i read the wiki and so i've been waiting for the guest lecturer to appear, but they just won't come. i got so tired of clicking through the same stuff again and again without any progress with him 😔
Unfortunately I think a lot of encounters in his have prerequisites, and then after you meet those it's still RNG whether you get them or not (or at least that's what it appears to be). It took me a month and a half in game time to get my clothes stolen to do the BFF storyline without the quad party. And then another week to get the sleepover event.
Would be nice to have a counter of sorts. First time you go into an area where an event can happen, you have a 1/20 chance to trigger. Next time you have 1/12, then 1/10, then 1/8, 1/6, 1/4, 1/3, 1/2... or something? I haven't looking into the code though, so I don't actually know how event triggers are dictated. Have you been to the discord server? The staff there may be able to provide specific info about how the events work.
Can you please tell us when we have a planned date? I only find out I missed a date when it’s the next day and all the buildings are closed, I fear I’m never going to see my boyfriend again 😭
you can check on your phone! It's in the reminders app, and in the calendary too.
Forever thanks to the person that taught me how to edit genders, physical labels... in this comment section. I was able to make OCs that are at different phase of transition, OCs that are intersex or gender nullified (the last one hot scene always made me think of human centepede cuz I'm weird 😅). I was even able rename "AMAB" label into "BAAM". I'm trying to figure out a way to export it to apk
Hiii, can u please tell me how to change genders?? Pleasdeeeeueuueue😭😭💔💔
Or you mean about... the Mc???
I want to change the gender of a characters with story :(
Lol =)) I think I made some hetero pornheads uncomfortable. I believe this is better than screaming-nagging-demanding for those moderations in game for my own satisfaction, but if the team have an issue with this, please tell me I'll stop Anarcho ;)
What I was taught to do is how to change the whole gender group. For example, I can change the name of gender female into "girlie", and add/remove bodyparts of groups. I don't think you can change only one NPC mid-game, sorry. Here is the original comment: https://itch.io/post/14001411
Based on what they said, I figure out I could actually fidgeting around the code base more with my limited programming skills. It's pretty clean code. Best of luck to you, respect the devs, like don't post your own mods or do something hate-fuelled with the game.
You can edit Twine saves at https://mocha2007.github.io/tools/twine_save_editor.html . Be careful though, for example, if you change a character's gender, you have to also change the attraction of his partner or the game will error. If you change his name, you have to also change his name as listed in his partner's "bf/ gf/ partner" section, etc.
Definitely have a backup of your save.
I have a slut inclination and my player could have last few days without sex or masturbation almost without any behaviour impact. I think that release penalties should be much more stronger, at least for sluts.
I'm pretty sure one of the npcs is robbing me. (For context dunno if this matters, he's the River Rat Boss?) I've got all the Date cards except Give Great Gift and the sex ones in general bc no matter what he just doesn't do anything DESPITE SAYING HE WILL MIND YOU. I've given this guy about $1,000 dollars worth of stuff and I haven't gotten the card yet
Is he genuinely exploiting me?? I've got full lust + full friendship, and he acts like he's into me but he just won't do anything. I checked his inclinations and I'm confused whether it's just a storyline thing? Do you have to get to a scene before you actually fuck?
for the "great gift" i just give them the Promise Pendant at Mr Gabes and it seems to work every time, im not aware of a extra scene with the river rat owner
mk I'll try it, ty!
Honestly I wish I could see the clothes I'm buying something similar to (Degrees of Lewdity) At least just the clothes because I'm one of those who has to research to see what the clothes are like before buying them and it's very annoying.
Hi I've been really enjoying your game a lot so far but if i might make one teeny suggestion i think it would be nice if you could alter the color of clothes after you buy them
Game is extremely addictive! I can't stop staying up past 1am! Lol. I'm trying to get with my best friend, but it's all just hangouts. We had our first kiss at the arcade. What do I need to do? Her lust is almost full
She's a storyline character. So you have to activate her storyline. There's two ways to go about it.
1. Make start to insult some people your not attracted to around 3 to 4. You need them to dislike you. That will lead to one of them eventually stealing your clothes while you shower in the morning. Your BF will see you naked and confused. If you accept her help she'll give you some clothes. After which she'll say you owe her a favor. After she reclaims the favor hang out with her in the evening, and talk about sex. If you don't want to piss of random npc's you can try to worsen your relationship with the Bully and The Crush's Crush. Who naturally don't like you because of story. And if they live in your dorm they'll steal your clothes.
2. If you don't want to go the favor route. You can try solving the mystery of the Party Milkshakes. Which you can do in one of two ways. Build up your Party popularity, or drink the milkshakes and start sucking dick. Eventually you'll either become popular enough that someone will let something slip, or you're not a quitter and you'll recognize a familiar taste in the milkshakes. Both will give you the prompt to investigate the milkshakes. After solving the mystery hangout with your BF in the evening and talk about sex.
I actually had the extremely hot dorm sex with her last night, now she's my gf
Oh? Which story event route did you go? The Favor route or Mystery? Im just curious.
I think the favour route. I never meant to deliberately piss anyone off, even trying to become friends with Anna Pussay(my bully) . I did get the stolen clothes part and I just kept hanging out with my bf. Got the kiss at the arcade for being her, maxed out her lust. Took a lot just to get to the sex part and now we are in an open relationship(she's into that and I didn't want to force her into anything) I'm playing a nice, very well endowed buff guy. Haha
I never figured out the forst route you mentioned, thanks, I'm trying it now!
Remember they have to live in your dorm.
You have to hang out with them in their room! Specially the "talk about sex" option, eventually, after a while, you two will fuck. Also, be sure you do the sus milkshake thing at the quad parties
Is there a way to get higher skills without having to grind and take a long time, like a cheat code?
there's a "cheat" thing in the settings
You can enable cheats in the Difficulty Options tab.
I'm a bit confused with the tasks you can do to get upgrades for the greek houses. I initially thought all the tasks from the initial 30 point challenge were available, but I haven't seen options for say, being freeuse at a Thursday party or messing with the quad statue. Are only some activities available but not others? Or is my game bugged?
The statue is in the university mall, check there. Also, do you have "Show hints for skillgated options" turned on in settings? If you do, you should be seeing prompts in certain locations, like the parties, indicating there's hidden options that you need to raise certain skills for.
Yeah, it's on. I don't know then. Maybe some actions are just not possible to do after the initiation then. I question it because someone said after canceling a sex sequence because they got in a loop that never ended, they never got the freeuse option again so I'm wondering if that happened to me.
can i do gendertransitioning? and when pregnancy uodateeeeee
Is there a way to change your characters sexuality?
We really need clothes visual, because it's very bothersome to always check internet for what I'm going to wear and buy
Personally, I prefer to not have a built-in visual, since it leaves more to the imagination
Besides, there are similar games with visuals If I want a game with that feature (I.E. BDCC & DoL)
I.E.?
I.E. Basically means 'that is...'
Being pedantic, I guess I could have used E.G. which more closely means 'for example...' to be more clear
(These acronyms come from latin; Id Est and Exempli Gratia, respectively)
The games i mentioned as examples
BDCC (Broken Dreams Correctional Center)
DoL (Degrees of Lewdity)
Similar is not the same. DoL is a brutal game, BDCC is a fantasy.
Yes DoL Is Brutal! All I've been doing is fighting to build dominance. It's working pretty good so far. But I fucked up and made my first character attractive. So every time I step outside it's a war zone. Flip side I just got my willpower to level 2. And I've brought the bullies dominace down to 20 she's slightly afraid of me. Im hoping when I get it down to 0 I can dominate that bitch. Fam I can't wait! Thx for putting me on some heat!
Edit: It Kinda reminds me of a Darker... More gritty TITS. (Trials in Tainted Space)
Anyway Im giving you the Credit. Because you said it was brutal. And I didn't believe you at all. I was like brutal how? Bro it's a porn game. This shit ain't hard. Tch! Boy I Was Wrong! I was stuck in the sewer for like 5 minutes. Fighting for my life so I wouldn't be penetrated. Just because I wanted to find some moss.
I do have one question do you know where the Black Jack game is at. I got 500 and I'm trying to flip it to 10000. I saw the achievement for winning 3 games of Black Jack. So Im trying to get that and make some money.
Cartoon graphic is simultaneously estetic and lightweight, for example like in Fake AI or Female Agent.
Adding graphics for every clothing item is a lot of work, I'd rather they keep adding new content instead
I think it would be good y add beaches ⛱️🏖️ summer and some event tht would be great 😃👍
Yea It could be added to the city Map and made to a single or group Hang out/ Date spot. You could have an event where you put sunscreen lotion on your dates, Go walking along the beach, Go Swimming races, and Play beach volleyball. Maybe even get food and drink like at River Rat. There's a lot of potential in beaches.
