There’s a genre called Adult Visual Novels which can be a more … refined experience. Not so much games but more like illustrated choice-driven stories. Some may include mini-games or other game-like aspects.
https://f95zone.to/forums/games.2/ filter by VN or Completed and sort by descending rating. The first couple pages are full of excellent examples. However, note that a lot of them are still being developed and may only release updates once or twice a year.
You can find a lot of these on Steam, itch.io or on the developer’s Patreon page.
I’m not into those kinds of games, but I happen to personally know the dev of “The Symbiant” (we are on the same city-wide Discord server), which is a yaoi VN with a side of tentacles. It seems to have excellent reviews (96% all time with 500+ reviews, a lot for this kind of games), but that’s the only one I may recommend, albeit without having played to it myself.
From what I was told by said dev, most NSFW games are Visual Novels, where most of budget goes into the visuals, which are often externalized to specialized artists (or AI for some low quality cash grabs). And as the target audience isn’t exactly there for the gameplay, there is little incentives to shape out good gameplay or great stories. But some exceptions probably exists.
Gameplay wise, FlipWitch is a fun metroidvania from that side of steam. There is also Take Me to the Dungeon and Tamer Vale, both of which are decent Slay the Spire knock-offs.
Whatever you do, don’t use Steam reviews/scores on adult games to make your decision. I mean, if it’s Mixed then it’s probably bad, but there is an immense amount of 97% Positive games that are low effort tile puzzle asset flips/copy-paste jobs.

Sex with Hitler 2
The worst part is the “Very Positive” reviews.

I suppose by searching in the “Adult Only” Steam category. You have to allow NSFW games in Steam settings to see them.

Good seems pretty subjective tbh but if you’re interested in “research”, f95zone is probably your best resource.

Treasure of Nadia is a really good King’s Quest style game on Steam.
Gameplay wise, FlipWitch is a fun metroidvania from that side of steam. There is also Take Me to the Dungeon and Tamer Vale, both of which are decent Slay the Spire knock-offs.
Scarlet Maiden is great too if you’re a fan of Rogue Legacy.
…uh, I’ve heard.
The Lust series is pretty good. It’s a horror game similar to Amnesia or Penumbra, except you’re infiltrating a sex cult.

edit: … and yes, after I bought these, steam has bombarded me with the most ridiculous erotic game suggestions for months!
