I have to say that I was dying with anticipation for this sequel to YAGS, and I was not disappointed. There is definitely more to the gameplay in this game, there’s a schedule, and mini games (which were easy enough) that you could also play later for fun which was nice.

Can't recommend this one. The writing is way below the first game. It's super repetitive. Each guy has one problem that gets overdone to death with each meeting, and the story randomly has you break up with him at the end if you didn't play through the game exactly as the developer intended. Gameplay is too convoluted - you need a guide that doesn't exist t…
Frankly the first thing made me frustrated is The whole Yearning stayed unfinished . The only characters I remotely liked are Adam and James a bit .

Horniness scale
Each game gets a score from 1 to 5 hearts. Higher means more explicit adult content.
| Score | What it means |
|---|---|
| 1 | Raunchy / softcore — suggestive themes, light fanservice, or mature humor; little or no on-screen explicit sexual content. |
| 2 | Spicy but restrained — clear adult intent (nudity, strong innuendo, or brief suggestive scenes) without sustained explicit focus. |
| 3 | Clearly adult — recurring sexual content or nudity as a meaningful part of the experience, but not the sole focus of the game. |
| 4 | Strongly explicit — graphic sexual themes, extended explicit stills or text, or gameplay built heavily around adult situations. |
| 5 | Explicit and often animated — graphic sexual content that is frequently animated or interactive; core to what you see and do in the game. |
