Third Crisis (Video Game)
Jenna, wearing her suit and her girlfriend's jacket

Third Crisis is a Tactical RPG H-Game developed and published by Anduo Games. It was released in Early Access in April 2020, with a full version released on May 19, 2024.

"Vibe", AKA Jenna, is a super-powered heroine who helped save the world from an android rebellion as part of a team, ending what would be historically known as the "Second Crisis". When her girlfriend is captured by terrorist android remnants, she sets out to rescue her, only to become a victim of their Subliminal Seduction and captured. However, her superpowers go wild when she's experimented on, warping her five years into a Bad Future where those same terrorists enacted a "Third Crisis" and now control the government. Unable to simply rewind the clock, Jenna must regain her strength, make new allies, and hopefully find her girlfriend in a lustful world...


Tropes:

  • Bad Future: The world is in this state five years after the introduction, with the terrorist group Jenna was fighting now in charge, and using Subliminal Seduction to degrade the populace and stay in power.
  • The Cameo: One of the NPCs in the main town is Shades, the main avatar of the Shady Corner team that developed games such as Shady Lewd Kart (in which, in turn, Jenna is a playable racer).
  • Content Warnings: Booting up the game for the first time displays one, making sure that the player is old enough to legally view mature content.
  • Colour-Coded for Your Convenience: Lustful thoughts and actions in text appear as purple, giving players a good idea of whether the dialogue option they're about to choose will add perversion.
  • Cursed with Awesome: Jenna has some power over space and time due to a childhood transporter incident, though she required a special suit in order to control herself. Even when she overcame most of her Power Incontinence in adulthood, messing with the technology can have horrible consequences.
  • Damsel in Distress: The game's instigating event is Jenna's girlfriend Karen being abducted by terrorists in order to lure her to them. When the mission goes sour, despite the whole world becoming a mess, Jenna's main motivation throughout the rest of the game is still tracking Karen down.
  • Earn Your Bad Ending: There are Multiple Endings that require the player to ignore the main questline in favor of actively degrading Jenna until she succumbs to her own Extreme Libido. These ending include Jenna becoming a Sex Slave, a High-Class Call Girl, or straight up joining Peitho as a Fallen Hero. Sometimes Jenna will cast a lampshade on the fact that she's indulging in lustful acts instead of searching for Karen.
    Jenna: (My tits are out on display, my thighs are coated in my.. wetness.. and I'm serving a bunch of drunken idiots... What am I doing here..? Why can't I just go out and search for Karen already...? This is all wrong!)
  • Easily Detachable Robot Parts: Androids and cyborgs have the ability to painlessly remove their augmentations. Including their junk.
  • Everyone Is Bi: Jenna has a girlfriend and identifies as a lesbian, but shows interest in men as well, usually as a lingering side-effect of Peitho's Subliminal Seduction. Multiple other party members, such as Jewel, also aren't picky when it comes to who they choose to spend time with.
  • Expy: The main protagonist, Jenna, has a lot of notable similarities to Tracer; they have a redheaded girlfriend, they're part of an elite task force that has dealt with robotic uprisings, and they have time-space powers that would be debilitating without wearing a special suit. The game began life as an Overwatch fangame, where Jenna actually was Tracer.
  • Fanservice: Even without intentionally degrading the main protagonist or interacting with anything not required for the main plot, there will be a lot of lewd imagery.
  • Fat and Skinny: Two of the first people Jenna meets in the Bad Future are a pair of goons who she nicknames Throb and Tiny. Tiny is The Napoleon, taking out his aggression on the defenseless, while Throb is a Gentle Giant that doesn't enjoy debasing others like his fellow grunts and can actually help Jenna out on occasion.
  • Fish out of Temporal Water: When Jenna's captured and her suit is tampered with at the end of the intro, her power goes out of control, causing her to enter a dissociative state and accidentally warp herself five years into the future.
  • Flash Step: Jenna's special combat ability is to dash to a space at the edge of her maximum movement range, and stun enemies directly adjacent to where she stops.
  • Fun with Acronyms: There's quite a few of these, such as the new Global Android Government usually being referred to as GAG, and the in-game currency is called Free-Use Credit Kards.
  • Heroic BSoD: When Peitho agent Wildfire reveals herself to be a Brainwashed and Crazy Karen and then gives Jenna a harsh "The Reason You Suck" Speech, Jenna undergoes this and becomes a sitting duck in the ensuing boss fight against her. The player's control is restricted to both Jewel and Throb and they must use Knockback-inflicting abilities to keep Wildfire's attacks away from Jenna.
  • Heroic Seductress: Jenna can be played this way, taking advantage of the Subliminal Seduction that even its soldiers are affected by to gain an edge...at the risk of falling under the influence herself.
  • Holiday Mode: There are many events and outfits that can only be obtained at certain times of the year, such as a "The Witching Hour" Halloween Episode that lasts from mid-October to early November.
  • Hooker with a Heart of Gold: Jewel is the dancer at the local pub, and one of Jenna's potential allies.
  • Hurricane of Puns: At the pub in the afternoon, there's an action prompt on the stage that can be interacted with if Jenna is drunk. Doing so leads to a scene where the inebriated heroine performs a comedy routine filled with lame puns while obliviously making seductive poses that attract the audience's attention. The last pun involves her girlfriend Karen and the Valentine's Day gift she made for her, which causes her to snap out of her drunken trance and realize what she had done.
  • Idiot Ball: Many of the game's Downers require Jenna, a relatively competent superheroine and military operative, to go out of her way to put herself at the mercy of the Obviously Evil residents of the town she's stranded in.
  • Sex Is Evil: Although Jenna can engage in occasional debauchery without losing sight of her main goals, the majority of antagonists are driven by their own lustful urges.
  • Shout-Out:
  • A Taste of Power: The game begins with Jenna wielding a pair of guns and access to a stunning dash attack, as well as a reputation as a hero with plenty of allies, only to lose all of it after being captured by the enemies and warped into a Bad Future.
  • Tragic Keepsake: Jenna's yellow jacket, made for her by her kidnapped girlfriend Karen.
