Night Life (ナイトライフ, Naitoraifu) is an erotic simulation game by Kōei,[1][2] released for the PC-8801 computer in April 1982.

It was one of the earliest commercial Japanese erotic computer games, featuring sexually explicit images,[1] and a precursor to the modern eroge genre.[2] Night Life was marketed as an aid for the sex life of couples. It included such features as a schedule to determine a woman's period, and a catalog of possible sexual positions, with artwork consisting of black-and-white outlines.

The PC-8801 version got an English translation patch on May 19, 2022.
