This game is about a woman called Ute. She meets lots of men who are all in love with her. Ute can have sex with them but has to be careful that she's not caught by someone else. If that happens though, both men - the one Ute is having sex with, and the one who caches them - will never sleep with her again.
At the end there is only one man left. Ute has to marry him. The objective of the game is to have as much sex as you can before getting married.
