Since a couple of weeks I have a new advertiser. Its company called thrixxx, who do all kind of adult gaming entertainment. The game I am reviewing today is the Chathouse 3D Roulette. I did not really know what it exactly is, until a couple of days ago.
I decided to give it a try. In the end I should know, what I am advertising to my readers. So off I went downloaded the viewer and created my first Chathouse 3D Roulette avatar.
At first I was a bit confused. I am used to the way you move an avatar, use the camera and all those things in Second Life. Here it works all different. Especially the camera needs practice. But after a while things are really easy and smooth. My advice is, to lower the speed of the camera in the settings. Its much easier that way.
The place itself is always the same. A nicely decorated villa on a beach, with pretty surroundings, like palm trees and a waterfall. I tried to find a way to get somewhere else, just as I am used to from Second Life. I finally found this button on the top right, saying “connect to another server”. Here is my TP I thought and clicked away. But only to came back to the same place.
I knew what this is all about, when I met the first person in-game. When you first log in, or when you change server in “automatically search” mode, you will be brought to the same house on a different server to meet every time a different person.
Blind sex dates!
Now that is fun. You never know who you will be with, unless you have people on a friends list and you choose “friends mode” when starting the game. Of course I did not have any friends yet (now I do).
I met a few guys. Well, several. Maybe quite a lot. Ok, I admit it: I was behaving really slutty after I found out how it actually works and when I saw how brilliant the animations are compared to Second Life.
But before I did so, I purchased a couple of updates. The reason being is, the free version only allows a few modifications to your avatar (Yeah freebies! Just like when I was a noob in Second Life) and in the free version the genitalia are sort of pixeled. You can not see them at all. Now that is a definitely a mood killer. Another similarity to Second Life where the avatars come without them.
The way it works is, you buy so-called coins which you then can use in their shop (a bit like our marketplace of Second Life). There you can upgrade everything . You also can buy cloth and other wearable to choose from. And of course: shoes!
Thank god its not expensive. I bought coins for 25 Euros (about 17 USD) and got sufficient stuff to get started with a half decent avatar (including seeing everything) and still have some coins left.
You also have a couple of nice animation to start with. The way that works is, initially the poses and animations on certain furniture are free to use. Namely the kissing, sitting, the sex poses on the sofa and some poses in the bath room. To access the ones in the bedroom you need to buy the ones available there. The free ones are nice too, but of course the paid ones are really steaming hot.
The good news is, if you meet somebody, who has access to more or even all available poses you can use them too. Only one of the too needs to actually have them. I did not buy them, hoping to meet well equipped guys. That worked out quite well in most cases.
The Voyeurs
When you start the Chathouse you have to option to allow other users to watch you. Maybe not everybody’s cup of tea. I love it. To me being watched is actually a turn on. On the control panel it actually tells you how many voyeurs are currently watching you.
The Masturbator
One guy I met, actually used what is called a Vstroker! Now, that is an interesting invention.
It basically simulates a pussy. Yes I am serious! You connect it to your computer being in-game. When you have sex, your partner and the poses interact with the device and massage your penis in the same way you fuck or get wanked in the game. Your partner can even control intensity and speed. Needles to say I drove him mad.
Comparison with Second Life:
Advantages
1. Great animations
There is not such a big choice of sex animations in the Chathouse 3D Roulette as in Second Life but the quality of the animations is way more realistic and the movements between poses are way better.
2. High availability
Everybody who comes to the Chathouse 3D Roulette is there for sex or to watch others having sex. That doesn’t mean you will get laid on every date you have. It still depends on your looks, your ability to connect and chat, but chances are much better than in Second Life. If you are not having sex at least every second date, there is something terribly wrong with you.
3. Reasonable price
Remember all those Lindens you did spend already in Second Life? In the Chathouse 3D Roulette you can buy 50.000 Coins for about 50 Euros (approximately 40 USD). With those you are sufficiently stocked to make your avatar attractive, buy most poses and get some decent cloth.
4. Very high realism
Not only that the animations are better you also can extend the experience with a masturbation device and VR Viewers such as Occulus Rift, making it a very realistic experience.
Disadvantages
1. Just one location
In Second Life we are use to thousands of different locations. In the Chathouse 3D Roulette there is only the villa on multiple servers. The only variation is a BDSM room. Access to that costs a one off payment of 20.000 coins. I don’t know if there are plans for more locations to be added. It would make a difference in my opinion. However, there is an option to buy a so-called “roommaker” which basically allows you to create your own villa and decorate it to your liking.
2. No options beyond dates
In Second Life sex is only one of many options. We build stuff, sail boats, fly planes, role play, run businesses, learn new things, go to music events, visit art galleries and so on. You do not have that in the Chathouse. Its sex centered dates, nothing else.
3. Free version is very limited
Not only that you can not see the full thing, but also the amount of available animations is very limited unless you buy them. In Second Life there are hundreds if not thousands of freebies available, including sex animations .
So that was my first experience and evaluation of the Chathouse 3D Roulette game. To sum it up: For me the Chathouse can not replace Second Life for me, but when I am in the mood for a spontaneous sex date it is the better option.
Why don’t you give it a try too? Simply click on the banner below or above the post (Yes, I will get a commission if you do so, I am sure you don’t mind that), download the viewer and get going!
Who knows maybe see you soon in the Chathouse 3D Roulette. Watch out for the name “Caroline Resident”!
Last but not least some shots of me being naughtier than ever (will update frequently):
Wouldn’t be something for me, because I’m more of a dress up person but I had a good laugh at the pictures. Did you notice that this blond guy looks exactly like guys tend to look right after they got rid of the initial newbie look, but did not yet settle for something more individual?*
That one half-long hairstyle and a black tattoo with swirly big lines 😀
*I assume a big portion of guys still fall to that style, instead of settling to newer (mesh) stuff directly.
Syo
I have not found out yet, how to make a good looking avatar in the Chathouse. I guess it is a learning curve and requires a bit of an investment just like in Second Life.
