It's that time of year once again. You deck the halls with boughs of holly, gather up all your most festive tracks in a playlist, and search across the dunes for sufficient lube to allow a "trapped" woman to slip free from a giant pot.
Well, perhaps not that last one.
But fear not; we have you covered. This year's update is now LIVE for ALL GAME ACCESS TIERS (AVATAR+) and will stuff your stocking fit to bursting... we've a heavy sack of goodies just for you... at the outset it looks smaller but it'll keep growing the longer you play with it... a real hands-on update... okay, I've got that out of my system. Mostly.
The new mini-quest "Honeypot" is the introduction for an ongoing chain that will involve the new romance NPC Onha, a larger girl from distant lands, far to the west of the Narthossi Empire.
Whilst she will have much more to offer in 2026, for now she's stuck and is relying on you to help her out... and also free her from the pot. In no way is this a ruse... she's definitely stuck... for real. Honestly. Why are you so cynical about this?
So far so good. But then we were thinking "What we really need in a Christmas update is something Christmassy", if that's a word. We realised it wouldn't be the same without tasty-treats... striped-poles... being so excited in bed that you can't sleep... so naturally we added this completely unrelated variant skin of the Draconid Genitals instead.
Any suggestion that it bears an intentional similarity to a particular festive confectionary is entirely wrongheaded. Look, it was this or Santa's Hat an Ancient San'tah Cowl.
Needless to say, I was outvoted.
I suppose there's always next year... or April Fools
From myself - and the entire Carnal Instinct team - may your Christmas be filled to the brim with that which you most desire.
With our very best wishes,
Team Carnal Instinct
