"There are some virtual sex games out there, but none that actually have adventure and a storyline to them," said Maximus Baptist VIII of bonetown.com.
"A corporation called The Man Inc. is trying to shut down all the sex and drugs so you have to help the people of Bone Town get rid of The Man."
The videogame can't be played on consoles because the companies making them target "a PG audience," according to Baptist.
Elsewhere on the show floor, the HotTrix company behind iBeer, iMunchies, and iBug applications for iPhones touted an App Sex Shop devoted to lascivious software for Apple's globally popular smartphones.
"We have a way to bring adult content to the iPhone without jail-breaking, hacking or altering your iPhone in any way," said HotTrix co-owner Steve August.
"Apple would not allow us to use its App Store, so we came up with our own."
More than two million applications, most of them for adult videos or pictures, have been downloaded from the HotTrix shop, according to August.
For the second year in a row, adult entertainment powerhouse Pink Visual saw visits to its mobile video service soar after Christmas as people turned on new iPhones and tapped into porn.
"Mobile has saved our (tail) this year," said Pink distribution operations manager Kim Kysar, noting that the porn industry was not spared during the economic turmoil.
"We took a hit when everyone else took a hit and mobile is making up the difference for us."
Social networking trends are also being reflected, with an online community launched about a year ago for adult entertainers and their fans.
