Naruto: Trials of Menma throws you into this weird, horny side corner of Konoha where everything feels familiar and wrong at the same time. You’re Menma, like Naruto’s shadow version, not just a reskin, more like the dev’s excuse to mess with the cast without ruining canon too hard. It’s a visual novel with 3dcg scenes that look way better than I expected from a browser game, especially when the camera gets too close to Sakura’s chest or Hinata’s shy face turning bright red. The story pretends to care about shinobi politics and secrets in the Leaf, but honestly the real “hidden truths” are like: who’s secretly dripping for Menma, and how far can you push them with a mix of teasing, groping, and that slow corrupting vibe. One moment you’re in a semi-serious talk about missions with Naruto Uzumaki, next moment you’re alone with Sakura in some hallway, pressing her up against the wall, her pretending she hates it while her thighs twitch. The game loves that line where the girls act offended and still don’t pull away.

The way each girl is handled feels different. Sakura Haruno is all attitude and fake resistance, snapping at you, calling you an idiot, then freezing up when your hand stays on her ass one second too long. I had one scene with her in the hospital where she’s “checking your injuries” and the camera is definitely not focused on the bandages. You can push, grope her a little too obviously, and the animation sells it when her body leans into your touch for just half a breath. Hinata Hyuga is like soft porn weaponized. She can’t make eye contact, fidgets with her fingers, the classic shy girl thing, but the game lets you be cruelly patient with her. There’s a training ground scene where she trips, lands basically in your lap, and instead of jumping away she just sort of trembles while you slide your hand up her thigh. The teasing there is slow, almost painful, like you’re drawing circles on her skin and she’s waiting for you to go higher, but she can’t ask. In contrast, Ino is more predatory and it’s hot as hell even when it makes no sense. She leans on you, smirks, calls you “Menma-kun” like she already decided you’re her toy, then somehow she’s the one getting pinned and groped, pretending she let you win. That flip happens too fast, but her smug face melting into something needy hits just right.

What surprised me is how being a male protagonist that isn’t Naruto changes the whole mood. You’re not the goofy hero, more like this darker mirror walking through Naruto Shippuden vibes but twisted. Talk to Naruto himself and you almost forget it’s an adult game, then ten minutes later you’re sneaking around Konoha, hunting for a moment alone with Hinata while she’s technically still “his” crush. It feels deliciously wrong, like cheating in a story that never belonged to you. The animated bits are short but they focus on exactly what you want: a hand sliding under Sakura’s skirt, Hinata flinching as fingers graze her panties, Ino pressing your hand tighter on her own chest instead of pushing it away. Sometimes the pacing is a bit off, like you jump from mild flirting to full-on groping in the same dialogue chain, and I honestly got annoyed by one line that kept repeating in different scenes, like the writer forgot they used it already, but then Hinata’s tits bounce in that shy breathing animation and my brain just forgives it. It’s not subtle, not perfect, and the tone jumps from dark, almost villain-like stuff to goofy parody, then straight into horny grinding in a blink. Somehow that messy energy fits Menma’s whole thing. You’re walking around in Naruto’s world, but all your choices smell like lust and bad intentions, and every girl you meet ends up as another canvas for your hands and your dick, whether it takes gentle teasing or rough groping to get there.

Naruto Shippuden: Rise of the Yugure feels like someone grabbed a horny fanfic thread from a dead forum, stuffed it into a visual novel, then said “yeah, good enough, now make Hinata beg.” It’s rough, it’s weird, dialog sometimes reads like Google Translate had a stroke, and I kinda loved that. You click through scenes, make little choices, watch the cast you grew up with stop pretending they’re about ninja honor and start acting like they’re trapped in a porn loop. Story tries to be serious at first, with this whole “Yugure” thing and danger and blah blah, then two lines later Hinata’s blushing so hard you know exactly where the plot is actually going. The contrast is stupid in a fun way. One second they talk about threats to the village, next second Naruto hits sexy jutsu and you’re staring at his “alternate” form wondering why this wasn’t canon already.

The girls get a lot of focus. Way more than the fights. Hinata’s the obvious star, all shy and loyal and then suddenly on her knees like she’s been waiting for this since the Chunin Exams. Sakura flips between fake tough kunoichi and frustrated perv who finally snaps, and when she snaps, she really snaps. You get those scenes where she’s arguing with Naruto, then the camera just refuses to look above the chest anymore, and suddenly you’re making a choice that decides if she rides him angry or soft. Ino, though, has that pure slutty energy the anime always teased but never let happen. The game leans into mind stuff in a way that’s honestly pretty dirty, like she uses her powers less for spying and more for making sure nobody remembers who started the orgy. Feels a bit mean, in a hot way. Dialog during sex is messy, sometimes outright broken English, and I weirdly liked that too, it sounds like a hentai fansub from way back, where “I will cum you” was considered acceptable English. Sometimes the moaning lines repeat and you’re like, ok, we get it, she’s “so full,” calm down.

Naruto himself is just chaos. Stupid, horny chaos. One moment he’s trying to act like some important hero, then he tosses a joke about seeing Sakura’s panties at the worst time and the scene flips from tension to foreplay. When sexy jutsu hits, it’s over; everyone loses their dignity and the VN leans right into it, gives you long shots, dirty angles, and a lot of “oops, we stayed too long on that close-up” energy. It doesn’t really care about pacing. Some routes feel rushed, others drag, like that one conversation with Hinata that keeps looping little variations before it finally admits, yeah, she just wants to get railed. Choices matter just enough to make you save scum like a goblin, trying to unlock the filthiest branch while pretending you still care about the village being in danger. It’s not polished, it’s not subtle, sometimes character logic just breaks for the sake of one more wild CG, but the game knows what it is: a horny Naruto parody where ninja skills exist mostly so clothes come off in creative ways. And honestly, that’s exactly the kind of trash my brain likes after doomscrolling TikTok all day.
