Raid of Lust: Match & Magic — A story-driven fantasy match-3 RPG where flashy combat, deep romance, and spicy rewards collide.  
Enter a vibrant anime-influenced fantasy world filled with magic, danger, and irresistible heroines. Battle through hundreds of flashy match-3 levels, defeat epic bosses like dragons and ancient trolls, and rise through PvP arenas and massive clan wars.
But raw power isn’t enough. To truly conquer this world, you’ll need more than just strong heroes — you’ll need their hearts… and their bodies.
**Are you ready to lead the ultimate raid?**
Recruit stunning warrior women, mages, and rogues through casting calls and story events. Flirt, grow closer, and unlock increasingly passionate and explicit private scenes as your bond deepens. These girls won’t just fight for you — they’ll reward you in ways no ordinary hero ever could.
Create your own powerful clan, invite the strongest (and sexiest) players, and lead your guild to glory in massive raids and brutal clan wars.
**Key Features**
*   Flashy, fast-paced match-3 combat with powerful hero skills and flashy animations
*   Deep story campaign with branching romance routes
*   Over 100 fully animated spicy scenes — the more you romance a girl, the hotter it gets
*   Build and lead your own clan, wage wars, and dominate cooperative raids
*   Hundreds of unique heroes with distinct personalities and abilities
*   PvP battles, epic world bosses, and clan-wide events
In **Raid of Lust**, every match brings you closer to victory… and every victory brings you closer to the girls who will do anything for their master.
