NB: TRAP QUEST IS FREE TO PLAY!
There's just some unlockable additional content (and early access) if you support us, which due to TGFS rules means the game is flagged as costing $20. Go figure.

Trap Quest is an erotic text-heavy turn-based clickable-text-input roguelike game which can be run in Windows, older versions of MacOS (newer versions have to use the glitchy Gargoyle or emulate Windows), Linux, and (to some lesser extent) Android and iOS. Its premise is that you're playing a very difficult virtual reality game and your body and mind are transformed in response to the events that happen in the game while you search for the exit.
The primary type of transformation in the game is 'bimbofication', a bimbo being a superficial person whose appearance, attire and behaviour is overtly sexually provocative. You can choose to play as male or female; for a male character this transformation can include sexual reorientation and/or actual biological transformation into a woman (depending on your game options selections) and will always include feminization, including the wearing of highly feminine and revealing clothing.
Other transformation content that can be enabled/disabled includes but is not limited to:
The level layouts, crafting recipes, and loot selection and enchantments are randomized in every playthrough, making the game infinitely replayable. Playthroughs typically last between 1 and 5 hours, but your first run will take a long time as you get used to everything.
The game is designed to be very difficult. While it’s possible for your character to successfully reach the exit as the same person they were when they started, in practice this never happens. The game is designed to overwhelm and disempower you, and punish you for the compromising choices you’ve had to make. The object is to, through its mechanics, immerse you in your character's feelings of submission. This is not a game that you’re supposed to win; it’s a game that’s supposed to beat you and make that experience enjoyable.
"Ignore all that, the game is easy and completely safe! Come and play!"

Visit the website (warning NSFW landing page):
This game is huge! It has so much content! As the level maps are random, each time you start a new game you'll have to find your way through them. There is so much variability that each replay is different. Also, you can configure everything, what kind of content you want to see, how hard the game is, etc.
The free version of the game is huge and complete. There is one section that you must pay to enter (I don't know what's in it) but it doesn't lower the fun of playing the other levels.
The good:
-Tentacle/egg content is fantastic. I think this is one of the best games on the site for it, which is why I put up with everything listed in the other half of this review. Pregnancy content is also great. Lactation is mostly incidental, but it's there and appreciated(and yes, there is a cowgirl class). WG content is nominally in the game but is barely implemented.
-There's nominally an end goal and final boss, but the game 100% does not care if you don't care. I've literally hit a "your game would normally end here but you can keep playing if you want" message. Similarly, there's an apparently-extensive side mode where you go through some sort of school with other students, but you can, thankfully, choose to ignore it entirely with no penalty.
-Huge variety of items and monsters - a lot of it isn't to my taste, but a lot of it is and that's the point of there being a huge variety. Smaller variety of traps(despite the game name), but they're all fun and well done.
The bad:
-The content blocking options are not 100% effective, and you tend to find that out in jarring ways. I've had dildos of bedwetting spawn from traps(yes, with watersports disabled), and I've seen various other fetishes/addictions I disabled appear in the "attitudes" section later at seemingly random. There are also kinks that, for no apparent reason, cannot be disabled even though they're very similar(mechanics-wise, at least) to things you can disable.
-The game's primary form of "difficulty" is forcing things on you(including clothing, which will usually be cursed and require a bunch of busywork to uncurse) all the time, whether you find that specific thing sexy or not. Some people might be into this, but I just found it annoying at best, frustrating at worst. It's even worse if you make the mistake of starting as a male character, because there's a lot of sissy content aggressively forced on them with no way to disable it(including clothing spawns that...let's just politely say made me lose all interest in the game for a bit).
-The headgear/class system suffers from similar problems, with a dazzling array of interesting stuff you'll probably never get to see in normal gameplay, and like 3-4 things you'll see constantly thanks to the way it spawns. Your best bet to avoid weird shit constantly spawning on your character is to start with the headgear rule on(which causes a random headgear to spawn in the starting room) and hope you get something that's actually fun/sexy.
-The combat system is basically an afterthought and you're best served by avoiding it when possible.
Oh my god! i absolutely loved this game. Can't wait to play more.
This is one of my favorite game on this site because not only does it have a hige variety of togglable fetish but also It has a huge replay value. I feel like everytime I open trapquest I get a different result sometime I trigger the lever by mistake sometimes I get bondaged into oblivion and other time I get through it.
Very good
Haven't actually played this release yet, though this is one of the most enduring games on the site and it just keeps growing. In response to Ranma who is having trouble with the launcher due to AV false flagging, you don't have to use the launcher to play the game, click the link that goes to trapquest.com rather than area57 and download the game file from there, then open it with either WinGit or Gluxe - Inform7 game readers that can also be downloaded from the trapquest.com page. I've played previous versions both ways, the main advantage of the launcher is that it checks for updates automatically.
Thank you for the continued excellence Aika,
