Moero Crystal H is a turn-based dungeon crawling monster collecting RPG. Except the monsters are anime girls. Over 80 of them.
The premise: the Bra of Darkness and the Panties of Light are ancient artifacts that keep the world from falling into Armageddon. The Bra of Darkness has been stolen and now a rift has opened in the sky, threatening the end of the world. The Bra of Darkness has also turned monster girls bad, and it's up to you to battle them into submission and put the Panties of Light on them in order to lift the curse.
The game play: The RPG side is fairly deep but doesn't tread any new ground. Enter a dungeon, map the floor, find some items, fight some monsters, descend to the next floor, difficulty increases, rinse, repeat. Much like Pokemon, the player character doesn't fight, but you support and command your monster girls. What makes the game distinctly lewd and different is that each round you can "store" your desire, and at the appropriate time you can "unleash" it onto one of your girls to enhance their abilities. Don't wait too long though, or you won't be able to do it again for a while.
Seriously.
Once you encounter a monster girl who is under the spell of the Bra of Darkness, you can attempt to capture them by aiming your attacks at their clothes. Once their clothes are destroyed, you can use the touch screen to rub the monster girls, succeed in finding their weak spots and they will submit, allowing you to use the Panties of Light and win them over to your side.
Yes, seriously.
When you're not in the dungeons, there's a more visual novel style side to the game. You can talk to the girls, find out more about them and their backstories, give them gifts, play the rubbing game again to increase your bond, as well as a shooter style mini game where you pilot a ship and damage the girls clothes to find their "hidden crystal." Once you win, you unlock an additional dungeon that allows you to "go deeper" into your monster girl and add to their abilities. In the dungeons you find panties that belong to each girl and allows you to change their costumes, which also affect their stats.
It's lewd, it's fun, and it's pretty incredible that a game like this exists, much less on the Nintendo Switch. The monster girl illustrations and monster designs are beautiful, the music is catchy and upbeat, and the fan service is out of control. There's even a monster girl who "washes her beans" - a literal pot of beans - when she's embarrassed. This game is either up your alley or it isn't, and you'll know it immediately. My only knock on the game is that it doesn't do too much to differentiate itself from last year's release, Moero Chronicle H. While the protagonist and scenario are different, most of the monster girls are the same as Chronicle.
If you like your game play vintage like OG Phantasy Star or Etrian Odyssey and you like doing lewd things to anime girls to recruit them to fight for you, then this is your game.
