BeelzeRog Adult Game Review 27: Perky Little Things & Jerry Wanker
On January 21, 2024 by beelzerogVideo Script:
New year, New game!
Rini: Yay!
Actually, two games,
Rini: Yay! Yay!
One released in 2020 and the other just released a couple months ago at the end of 2023. These are “Perky Little Things” and “Jerry Wanker & The Quest to Get Laid“, both by Ktulhu Solutions.
Rini: Jerry Wanker and the Quest to get Laid is, like, every guy’s college motto. That’s just what college is.
And, well, high school, and, um, after college, and um, just in general.
Rini: Well, that’s probably true, too. Anyway…
The first game “Perky Little Things” is a Hidden Object Puzzle Game, but with an extremely bawdy sense of humor.
Rini: And Sad Keanu Reeves.
The over story involves some naughty cherubim, straight off the cover of Van Halen‘s 1984 album,
Rini: Not Van Halen, but, “Smokin’ in the Boys Room! I tell you I was, Smokin’ in the Boy’s Room!”
Who are sent to Earth to “bring people together”, but they do so in a more carnal manner.
Rini: That’s more fun.
What this translates to is a setting where you have to find objects hidden around the picture and give them to the correct scene, usually by having the image light up when you pass the right object into the right scene. The image will then change to show you the consequences of the new object, usually of the sexual variety. Some puzzles require you to finish a different puzzle in order to have access to a needed object. There are also secrets that require you to tap on a scene several times to open a new scene.
Rini: You gotta tap that. Keep tappin’ that
Keep tappin’ that.
The art is fun and sexy and light even for some of the depravity.
Rini: Mmmmmmm….
Each level is full of memes, cliches, and pop culture references. You can move around the pictures, zooming in to find hidden details. At the bottom is a list of all the items you need to find and if you get stuck, you can hit the spyglass, which will then on focus on something you may have missed, but you then need to wait a certain amount of time before you can use the spyglass again. If you want to, for some reason, not play with all the hardcore action, the game has three modes: Censored,
Rini: Lame
Complete with a black censor bar; Mature, which has some of the naughtiness and a little nudity, but hides penetration with clothing, making it softcore;
Rini: That should be called the Skinemax option.
Screen Text: Cultural Note: Movie channel Cinemax used to air softcore porn during late nights, earning it the nickname ‘Skin-emax’.
And finally Adults Only, which gives you the full hardcore action.
Rini: HARDCORE!
If you would like to try it out, “Perky Little Things” has a demo on Steam, Itch.io, & Newgrounds, as well being able to buy the full version on Steam & Itch.io. The game has also been released on the Nintendo Switch, but with only the Censored and Mature versions available, no Adults Only, because the console makers hate adults having fun.
Screen Text: Digital is censored, Physical version seems to have all 3 mode. Also, can only be played in handhold mode, not docked.
Rini: Indubitably!
The second game was the just-released “Jerry Wanker and the Quest to Get Laid“,
Rini: College
Which is a point-and-click adventure game in the style of “Leisure Suit Larry“. Actually this game gives off a lot of Leisure Suit Larry vibes, which is actually pretty high praise. Even the game acknowledges this in a few Easter Eggs. You play the titular character, Jerry, who is so horny that the centerfold on his bedroom door is talking to him. He finds out that his hot next-door neighbor is having a party and makes it his mission to get inside the party and finally score.
Rini: Beavis & Butthead Voice: Huh-huh, Beavis, We’re gonna score.
Butthead Voice: “Did I just score?”
To do that, you need to collect a series of objects, save a possessed nun,
Rini: As one does to get laid.
Sell your soul for porn,
Rini: As also one does to get laid.
Find a stripper for a free drink,
Rini: Also true.
Bust a ghost,
Rini: Unlike a nut…
and run into the cherubs from “Perky Little Things“.
Rini: “Smokin’ in the Boy’s Room”
The game is fairly standard point and click, you’ll have to combine certain items on Jerry’s modeling workbench, there’s a lot of running back and forth from a set number of locations in Blueball Falls. And as with several of these types of games, sometimes the answers are not as clear cut as needed.
Rini: I gotta know if there actually is a Blueball Falls.
Screen Text: Nope! Just a Blueball, Maryland & Blueball Lake in Montana.
There are also a set of collectibles hidden in the game with artwork for various Ktulhu Solutions games. The artwork is on the same level as “Perky Little Things“, that is light and sexy.
Rini: It’s actually really good. It’s very cute.
The only problems I had with the game was that the dialogue had a couple problems, mostly because the creators are not native English speakers, and a few of the puzzles really kinda stretched logic to solve.
Rini: Now, are we talking “Myst” stretching-logic-to-solve or “King’s Quest” stretching-logic-to-solve?
I never played “King’s Quest“.
Rini: Ehhhh! You never played “King’s Quest”!?
Grunt negatively (I’m Sorry, Ken & Roberta Williams).
Rini: Aaaaahhhh!
Also the game is on the short side, I finished it in a day. This can be a good thing or a bad thing depending on how you look at it, but the normal price is only $10, so the value is in the eye of the beholder.
Rini: How many hours to you think it took?
Six.
Rini: Eh, so 10 divided by 6 ($1.66)
Regardless, it is a lot of fun, a light breezy game without world-ending stakes. Jerry himself is singleminded, but likable, even more than Larry Laffer was, and definitely more than Laffer’s nephew Larry Lovage. So I highly recommend it and hope to see this maybe turn into a franchise, or maybe Ktuhlu will make more of these types of games. You can pick up the game from Steam & itch.io for Windows, MacOS, & Linux,
Rini: Wow, Linux.
And both Steam and itch.io have free demos that you can try out, as well as a demo on Newgrounds.
Now just an FYI, there are some other games that Ktuhlu Solutions has done, like “CityBeat: The Sorority Shuffle” which plays like a text adventure game with some graphics, and “Metropolis Lux Obscura“, which has a story and a Match-3 combat system, and lastly a mind control visual novel called “Yes, Master“.
Rini: Hmmm
All three have adult content in them, but I wasn’t impressed with the first 2, and “Yes, Master“, while interesting, wasn’t much of a game, I have yet to find a decision point. But different people like different things, so the first two have free demos you can download and try, plus “Yes, Master” is free on Steam & Newgrounds. Ktuhlu Solutions also frequently teams with the studio “Lesson of Passion” to release Adult Visual Novels.
